| Site Zoning * | REVIEW COMPLETED | CDRC TRANSMITTAL TO: Planning & Development Services Department FROM: Fernando L. García PDSD Zoning Review Section PROJECT: Multifamily Development 5845 S. Park Av, Tucson AZ 85706 Zoning: O-3 TP-PRE-0925-00183 TRANSMITTAL DATE: September 25, 2025 1. The proposed development must comply with the City of Tucson Unified Development Code (UDC) Administrative Manual Chapter 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. This parcel is zoned O-3. Multifamily development is an allowed use within the O-3. 3. An existing development package (DP), TD-DEV-1123-00470, is currently open on this parcel. Before a new DP can be accepted for this site, the existing DP must be fully withdrawn, including payment of an unpaid fees. 4. This site is bounded by S Park Av on the west side. S Park Av in this area is an arterial road with a proposed width of 120’. It is currently approximately 80’. Ensure provided plans demonstrate the future right-of-way (ROW) and that all required site improvements are outside of the future ROW area. 5. Dimensional standards for a multifamily development within the O-3 zone follow: a. Maximum residential density: 22 dwelling units per acre b. Maximum lot coverage: N/A c. Maximum height: 40’ d. Street perimeter yard: to S Park Av (Arterial): 10’ from future ROW; to E Alvord Rd (Local): 20’. e. Interior perimeter yard: to the west and north (abutting O-3): 10’ or ¾ height of adjacent wall, whichever is greater; to the east (abutting R-2): 10’ or ¾ height of adjacent wall, whichever is greater Perimeter yard measurements were not provided from structures to any adjacent property lines, and as such could not be confirmed, although it appears that required perimeter yard setbacks to the west and east are insufficient based upon the height of the building. Based upon heights of 21’, it is possible that the minimum required setback may reach 15.75’. Less than that appears to be shown on the submitted plans. A Design Development Option (DDO) will be required as a subrecord to the development package in order to request reduction of minimum required setback distances. 6. Minimum required motor vehicle parking requirements are per UDC Table 7.4.4-1. For multifamily development, the number of required spaces is assessed on a per-bedroom basis: a. The number of spaces per dwelling unit is based on the number of bedrooms in each unit as follows: • Studio, less than 400 sq. ft. GFA - 1.00 space per dwelling unit • Studio, more than 400 sq. ft. GFA, and 1 bedroom - 1.50 spaces per dwelling unit • Two bedroom - 2.00 spaces per dwelling unit • Three bedroom - 2.25 spaces per dwelling unit • Four or more bedroom - 2.50 spaces per dwelling unit b. Per the proposed plan, 36 spaces total are required for the 24 one-bedroom units and 8 spaces total are required for the two-bedroom units for a total required 44 spaces. 7. Electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) parking is required for this development per UDC Table 7.4.11-1. According to that table, 10% of provided parking spaces must be EV Ready and 20% of provided parking spaces must be EV Capable. If 56 total parking spaces are provided, then 6 of these must be EV Ready and 12 must be EV Ready; none are shown on the plan. 8. Bicycle parking is required per UDC Tabel 7.4.8-1: a. Short-term bicycle parking: 0.10 spaces per bedroom. Minimum requirement is 2 spaces. b. Long-term bicycle parking: 0.5 spaces per bedroom. Minimum requirement is 2 spaces. c. Per the proposed plan (32 bedrooms), three short-term bicycle parking spaces and 16 long-term bicycle parking spaces are required. Long-term bicycle parking can be provided within residential units. 9. The comments provided are preliminary and are not to be assumed as a complete review of the proposal. During the Development Package review process, the Zoning Review Section will conduct a full review to assure compliance with applicable UDC development criteria and technical standards. 10.

| TW New Area Development * | REVIEW COMPLETED | TP-PRE-0925-00183 (5845 S PARK AV TUCSON, AZ 85706) Multifamily residential project Based on the information provided, Tucson Water has no objections to, or comments on, the proposed development. Potentially serving this new project is a 12in CA (cement asbestos) potable water main C zone, located on the west side of the lot, ROW of S Park Ave. There is an existing 5/8" water meter currently in place this will not be sufficient for the 29 units proposed. Due to the project size (multi units), this meter must be upgraded to a larger size. The proposed project will incur costs including, but not limited to, "new meter installation", "new service line connection", and "pavement replacement" Please note that there’s significant infrastructure upgrades are currently underway on S Park Ave. The project includes a comprehensive sewage system update followed by a complete repaving of the street to improve long-term functionality and road quality. If any new domestic water, irrigation water, or fire water services are needed to serve this proposed development, please contact Tucson Water’s New Services Section by calling 520-791-5164 or by sending an email to 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.
