| Signs | REVIEW COMPLETED | RE: proposed freestanding sign & building signs For: ALDI and The Bridges Development AT: 871 E Tucson Marketplace Blvd / PAD-15 Bridges Presub: TP-PRE-1123-00376 Date: 11/27/23 Reviewer: H. Thrall (Heather.Thrall@tucsonaz.gov) Codes: Unified Development Code (UDC) 7A, Sign Standards, National Electrical Code (NEC) 600, Tucson-Pima County Outdoor Lighting Code (OLC), International Building Code (IBC) 2018 1) The proposal is on a parcel within the Bridges Planned Area Development, zoned PAD-15. Per 7A.11.4., the commercial zoning of this area of the PAD is written off of will translate to the General Business District of the Sign Standards. 2) Building sign area allowance is calculated at a ratio of 3 square feet of sign area per each 1 linear foot of street development frontage (use south lot line). Signs can be placed on all building elevations, without exceeding 30% of any elevation with signs. (Wall signs, canopy signs, awning signs are all examples of attached signs allowed within this area.) 3) Property management may have additional design specifications for signs in the development and should be consulted and written permission should be provided to the sign contractor for permit submittal. 4) Building and other tenant signage should be permitted via a licensed sign contractor registered within the State of Arizona. 5) The planned detached freestanding sign at the NW corner of Park and Tucson Marketplace Bl is a monument sign style present within the development. A) This freestanding sign should be permitted separately from the building / tenant's other signage. B) The sign area on the monument sign is slightly larger than the 50 square feet seen within the code, and would likely apply here, given the familiarity staff has with the design. A template sign permit can be pulled off the Bridges Master Sign Program for this sign design. C) Please provide a minimum setback of 20 feet for the freestanding sign from leading edge of the sign structure to the curb, and ensure the sign is outside of any sight visibility triangles. D) This sign is for the premise overall, encompassing the 5 PADs shown on the plan set with shared access, shared parking, and shared easement agreements. E) A sign permit must be submitted by a licensed sign contractor in the State of Arizona, and should include engineered plans (custom engineering is already in place on this sign design, ok to use again with the property management permission). F) Provide power via separate review / building permit to the sign structure. G) Provide copies of any easement agreements pertaining to the sign, if located within a potential easement area. 6. Please note that signs in Tucson are turned off at a midnight curfew via timer per the Outdoor Lighting Code. Should ALDI remain open after midnight, the signage may turn off at the business closure. 7. ALDI may have a number of "interior site signs" that will not count toward total allowed sign area, but are typically included within the sign package for reference. Such signs may include, but are not limited to, "pick up only" parking signs, access point signs (under 12 sqft in area and 4' tall, no-illuminated), etc. 8. The tenant panel planned for ALDI on the detached sign is within city code, and only requires permission from the property management for utilization. Thank you for showing this within the package. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions. (Permitting for attached building signs is within a 10 day process, generally. Permitting for the detached sign will also be within that time frame, given staff's familiarity with the overall sign design used elsewhere within this development.) |

| Site Engineering | REVIEW COMPLETED | Tucson codes and ordinances can be found online at https://codelibrary.amlegal.com/codes/tucson/latest/overview The Design Standards for Stormwater Detention and Retention manual can be found online at https://www.tucsonaz.gov/files/sharedassets/public/pdsd/documents/engineering-code/updated-retention-detention-manual.pdf 1. This site has a master drainage plan. Refer to the Bridges B-III Infrastructure Plan, DP19-0214, to see the site requirements for detention and retention. 2. Maximize water harvesting to all landscaped areas through the use of curb cuts and flush curbs. 3. From recent clarification from Environmental Services per TSM section 8, although recycling service isn’t required the site needs to provide at minimum the enclosure space for both solid waste and recycling. A double enclosure or two single enclosures are required. - andy.vera@tucsonaz.gov Lianne Evans lianne.evans@tucsonaz.gov |

Loading and delivery docs, outdoor storage areas, garbage and recycling areas, and other similar exterior improvements facing such residential neighborhoods and at the perimeter of and within the PAD will be screened (unless already substantially screened by buildings or other landscaping) with walls a minimum of six (6) feet high designed to prevent unreasonable light, noise, and visual impact. See PAD-15 Sect C.2.3.2g. If you have any questions about these comments, I can be reached at Matthew.Carlton@tucsonaz.gov |

Vehicular parking requirements for retail: A minimum of 4 spaces for each 1,000 square feet of Gross Floor Area (GFA). Parking stall counts may be done across each Sub-Area as a whole, not necessarily on a parcel-by-parcel basis within the sub-area, subject to a recorded cross-parking agreement for the overall Sub-Area. Out of the total required parking spaces 15% of the spaces must designated as electric vehicle parking. From the total 15% EV spaces 5% must be EV installed spaces and 10% EV spaces must be EV Capable spaces. Four percent (e.g., 1 in 25 spaces) but no less than one of electric vehicle (EV) charging spaces, in any given parking facility, must be accessible compliant. These spaces are accessible electric vehicle (EV) charging spaces, not ADA parking 4. Bicycle Parking requirements for short-term bicycle parking is: 1 space per 5,000 sq. ft. GFA.

If you have any questions, please contact me at Paul.Camarena@tucsonaz.gov C. EV Installed The purpose of EV Installed EVSE is to provide easy access for EV charging to a wide range of the general public. This is the most visible and significant investment in EVSE infrastructure. The installation of a charging station allows an EV driver to charge a vehicle without additional equipment. The installation of a networked station allows for managed charging access, monitoring, billing, and remotely accessed updates for the user and property manager. 1. EV Installed Stations must be securely anchored to the ground, floor, wall, or ceiling. 2. Stations shall be installed to minimize tripping hazards and draping of the charging cord. 3. EV parking spaces with access to installed stations shall be identified with signage and pavement markings including an EV symbol and regulatory instructions such as "No Parking Except for Electric Vehicle Charging." 4. Installed EVSE stations shall be accessible for EV charging during business hours at a minimum. EV Capable - The purpose of EV Capable conduit is to provide cost effective 'future proofing' for future EV charging at a site. 1. The raceway termination location near the EV Capable parking space shall be permanently and visibly marked as "EV Capable ." 2. This marking shall be changed if upgraded to EV Ready or EV Installed. 3. The service panel or subpanel circuit directory shall identify the overcurrent protective device space(s) reserved for future electrical vehicle charging as "EV Capable ". |
