ADOPTED PLAN(S): Plan Tucson, Santa Cruz, Key Parcel 4

PLAN AMENDMENT NO, ADDITIONAL INFO REQUIRED (SEE NOTES BELOW)


APPLICABLE PLAN POLICIES:
Plan Tucson
The site of the proposed special exception is covered by Plan Tucson.

Plan Tucson: The Plan Tucson Future Growth Scenario Map illustrates different Building Blocks within the city that have specific policies to promote future growth opportunities. The proposed development lies within the Existing Neighborhood Building Blocks within the Future Growth Scenario Map.

• LT28.1.11 Support the retention and expansion of existing business

• LT28.2.4 Support community commercial and office uses located at the intersections of arterial streets, taking into consideration traffic safety and congestion issues

Santa Cruz Area Plan
The subject parcel is within the Santa Cruz Area and is within key parcel 4. This subarea includes Midvale Farms development and residential uses per the Midvale Development Plan. Per the SCAP, The Midvale area should be developed as a mixed-use community in conformance with the approved zoning concept plan. The compatibility of proposed commercial development would be evaluated on the basis of the project successfully addressing potential noise and visual impacts, height considerations, enhanced setbacks, and landscaping and buffering elements. Refer to Map 3 for the land use development concept for Midvale (see key parcel 4 Map).

Surrounding Zones and Land Uses:

North: C-2; Commercial
Existing Uses: Large Retail

South: C-2; Commercial
Existing Uses: Drive Thru

East: C-1; Commercial
Existing Uses: Retail

West: C-2; Commercial
Existing Uses: Retail

ANALYSIS:
The subject site is zoned C-2 as is much of the commercial shopping center property north of Valencia. The Valencia and Midvale intersection is collectively C-1 and C-2. To the south and east is a C-1 Commercial development. As a result, the proposed fuel station and store are consistent with the commercial development along both Valencia and Midvale Road.

The proposed 5,093 sf fuel station and 1,556 sf convenience store are indicated at a 16’building height. No direct vehicle access is provided to Valencia or Midvale. Pedestrian connectivity originates from the southeast corner and continues along the southern property line and terminates at the proposed convenience store. The proposed fuel station and convenience store within C-2 is appropriate. Special consideration should be given to the landscaping, buffering and pedestrian connectivity to satisfy applicable section of 4.9.9.D. Large Retail Establishment Design Standards. The applicant shall be responsible for providing all documentation and information necessary to show compliance, such as, but not limited to, site plans, building elevations, landscaping plans, floor plans and outdoor lighting plans in a design compatibility report and preliminary development plan for the proposed fuel station.

Plan support based on concept plan will depend on design and feedback gathered at the neighborhood meeting. More design consideration may be required to ensure sensitive design of nonresidential developments adjacent to established neighborhoods. The formal submittal for the Special Exception must not be more than 60 days after the neighborhood meeting.
