PROJECT: PROPOSED APARTMENT COMPLEX WITH 72 UNITS
ACTIVITY NO: TP-PRE-0624-00147
ADDRESS/PARCEL: 2540 N ORACLE RD/ 107141960
ZONING: C-2 COMMERCIAL ZONE

This plan has been reviewed for compliance with applicable development criteria in the City of Tucson Unified Development Code (UDC) Administrative Manual (AM) Section 2-11 and Technical Manual (TM) Section for landscape, native plants, and water harvesting.

The comments provided are preliminary and are not to be assumed as a complete review of the proposal. During the Development Package review process, a full review will be made by Landscape/NPPO to ensure compliance with the applicable UDC development criteria and Technical Standards.

SITE LANDSCAPE/NPPO COMMENTS:

1. An NPPO waiver is required per 7.7.3.D.3 and .4 of the UDC, and Administrative Manual Section 2-11.0.0 prior to Grading Plan approval. PDSD will provide the applicant with the NPPO Waiver form upon request.

2. A landscape plan is required per UDC 7.6.2.B.1-b. The Unified Development Code requires all new development, or an expansion of greater than 25% of an existing development to submit a landscape plan, UDC 7.6.2. Preparation of the landscape plan shall adhere to UDC 7.6.4 and Administrative Manual 2-10.

3. Provide the required number of trees in all vehicular parking areas (1 tree to 4 parking spaces) per UDC 7.6.4.B.1. Trees are to be distributed evenly throughout the parking area, UDC 7.6.4.1.B.1, UDC Technical Standards Manual 5-01-.3.2 and UDC 7.6.4.B.1.a.

4. A street landscape border is required on N Oracle Rd. per UDC 7.6.4.C-2 and Table 7.6.4-1. See UDC 7.6.4.C for landscape border requirements.

5. DTM approval is required for all planting and irrigation in the ROW prior to the approval of the development package. Reach out to David Marhefka (David.marhefka@tucsonaz.gov) if necessary for this project.

6. All landscape plans shall incorporate water conserving design as defined in UDC Section 7.6.6, Use of Water, and as described in the Technical Standards Manual 5.01-5.11.

7. A Commercial Rainwater Harvesting plan is required per UDC Technical Standards Manual – Section 4-01.3.0. and Section 5-01.0.0 Landscaping and Screening. Adherence to the Low Impact Development Standards outlined in Section 5 of the PCRFCD Design Standards is required.

8. The Landscape Plan should match the Commercial Rainwater Harvesting Plan as well as the Grading Plan. The Landscape Plan should have spot elevations in the detention/retention areas as well as in all water harvesting areas in the Landscape Plan.

9. Maximize the rainwater harvesting across the site into all landscape areas, including the street landscape border and planting islands for the required trees in the parking area.

10. The Commercial Rainwater Harvesting Plan must utilize the Site Water Budget. See TSM 4-01.3.1 Exhibit A. If a copy of the water budget spreadsheet is needed, please reach out to Site Landscape/NPPO and I will provide the spreadsheet. The Site Water Budget is how the Water Department tracks the irrigation water use on-site, not first flush retention volume charts.

11. A separate irrigation water meter is required. Please label irrigation meter as “irrigation only”. See TSM 4-01.6.0

Site Zoning REVIEW COMPLETED CDRC Thursday Pre-Submittal Transmittal
PDSD Zoning Review

FROM: Loran Shamis; Project Manager

PROJECT: TP-PRE-0624-00147
Address: 2540 N ORACLE RD
Parcel(s): 107141960
Zoning: C-2
Existing Use: Vacant
Proposed Use: Multifamily Development

TRANSMITTAL DATE: June 27, 2024

COMMENTS:
1. The proposed development must comply with Administrative Manual 2-06 – Development Package. Building permits can be submitted and reviewed concurrently with the development package but the building plans cannot be approved until the development package is approved and the building plans are reviewed for consistency.

2. Impact fee credits for the demolition of the buildings are valid for 5 years per TCC Sec. 23A-81.B.3. These demolition permits are from 2021 and can be applied to the new development until April 12, 2026.

3. The site is zoned C-2 and the proposed use is Residential – Multifamily Development which is permitted (UDC Table 4.8.6).

4. The minimum setback requirements to the north, east and south are 0’ for a nonresidential use adjacent to a nonresidential zone. The minimum setback requirement to the west, adjacent to Oracle Road is 10’ from the existing or future property line. The proposed width of Oracle Road 150 feet.

5. The maximum permitted height is 40’ (UDC, table 6.3-4.A)

6. The maximum permitted residential density is 44 units per acre (UDC, table 6.3-4.A). The site is approximately 1.3 acres which would permit 57 units. A rezoning to C-3 is required to allow more than 57 units. For more information on rezonings contact John Beall at John.Beall@tucsonaz.gov.

7. The minimum parking ratio is studio, more than 400 sf GFA and 1-bedroom must provide 1.5 spaces per dwelling unit (UDC Table 7.4.4-1). The minimum required parking for the proposed development is 90 parking spaces, 4 of which must be ADA accessible and 1 must be van accessible. Refer to UDC 7.4.6 for design criteria. Refer to UDC 7.4.5 for options to reduce parking. Projects for the elderly or physically disabled can use the parking ratio of 0.75 spaces per dwelling unit, which would require 43 spaces, 2 of which must be ADA accessible.

8. The minimum requirement for Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment is 10% of required parking must be EV Ready and 20% of required parking must be EV Capable (UDC Table 7.4.11-1). For the proposed development, 9 spaces must be EV Ready and 18 must be EV Capable. Four percent but no less than one of the electric vehicles charging spaces must be accessible compliant, separate from the ADA accessible parking spaces. Refer to UDC 7.4.12 for design criteria.

9. The minimum required bicycle parking is 0.10 short-term bicycle parking spaces per bedroom and 0.5 long-term bicycle parking spaces per bedroom (UDC Table 7.4.8-1). The proposed development requires 9 short-term spaces and 45 long-term spaces. Refer to UDC 7.4.9 for design criteria.

10. Provide a pedestrian circulation path that connects all areas of development and to any adjacent street frontage. The path must be ADA accessible and a minimum of 4’ wide (TSM 7-01). Pedestrian circulation is required to connect to the trash enclosure.

11. The comments provided are preliminary and are not to be assumed as a complete review of the proposal. During the Development Package review process, a full review will be made by Zoning to assure compliance with the applicable UDC development criteria and Technical Standards.

Tucson Water has no objections to the proposed development and offers the following comments for your convenience:

1. There is an existing 6 inch Cement Asbestos (CA) water main along Oracle Road. Servicing this parcel from the 6 inch main is a single 5/8 inch water meter. If your water demand requires a larger meter or more than one meter, please contact New Services at TW_Common@tucsonaz.gov.

The above comments are based on the limited preliminary information provided by the applicant and should not be construed as a complete review of the proposal. Any questions, comments or concerns about these comments may be directed to:
