| 02/27/2006 | JOE LINVILLE | LANDSCAPE | REVIEW | Denied | 1) Revise the landscape plan to show the locations and note the height and materials used to construct any proposed or required screen walls (a new wall is shown along the western property boundary). Note the height and materials of existing walls proposed to meet the screening requirements. Walls must provide the minimum screening measured from the finished grade of the site being developed. LUC 3.7.3.3 DS 2-07.A.3 The development plan is required to demonstrate compliance with the above requirement. Provide spot elevations or other information as necessary. The screen for the parking lot is required to measure 5' from the finished grade of the parking lot. 2) If a new development is using an existing screen on an adjacent property to meet screening requirements, a copy of the recorded covenant locating the existing screen(s) on adjacent property is required prior to permit approval. DS 2-03.2.1.A.15 3) Add the following required general note to the landscape plan: The height of screening material adjacent to property lines is measured on the project side of the screen, at finish grade per DS 2-06.3.7.A.1. Revise the development plan as necessary. 4) The loading areas are required to be screened from the property to the south per LUC table 3.7.2-I. Identify the required screen wall and note the height on the development and landscape plans. 5) Revise the Native Plant Preservation plan to identify any symbols used. DS 2-15.3.4.A.4 6) Revise the native plant preservation plans to identify the limits of grading. DS 2-15.3.4.A 7) Applications for projects within the Scenic Corridor Zone (SCZ) shall be reviewed in accordance with the DSD Full Notice Procedure, Sec. 23A-50 and 23A-51. Contact Patricia Gehlen-Zoning Manager for application information. The decision to approve or deny the project will be based on the purpose, intent, and specific regulations of LUC 2.8.2. 8) The planting proposed with the scenic route buffer area will be evaluated further in the course of the SCZ review. A grading plan and photos of the site from the scenic route will be required. 9) Within the 30' scenic route buffer area, indigenous plant material is to remain. If any disturbance occurs during construction or prior to permit application, the buffer area is to be revegetated with native plants indigenous to the site and the area reconstructed to look as natural as possible per DS 2-06.7.1.B. Identify individual plants and areas where existing vegetation is to remain in the scenic route buffer area. 10) Any landscape area visible from the Scenic Corridor Zone is to be landscaped using native plant material indigenous to the site or plants selected from the Drought Tolerant Plant List, Development Standard 9-06.0 per DS 2-06.7.1.C. Revise the landscape plan to comply. An object is considered visible whenever it can be seen, not blocked by an intervening structure or terrain, from four (4) feet above the natural grade at the future right-of-way line along the parcel. LUC 6.2.22 11) Within the Scenic Corridor Zone all new utilities for development on private property and on public right-of-way along Scenic Routes will be underground. Refer to LUC 2.8.2.9 for exceptions and applicability. It was noted that a proposed power pole was included on the Development Plan. 12) The plans indicate grading into the 30' scenic route buffer area.

See engineering comments. 5. The following comment regarding the SCZ will remain as a reminder to the reviewer. The Development Plan cannot be approved until the SCZ application is completed and approved. Please note that the SCZ case number must be noted in the lower right hand corner of each sheet of the development plan, landscape and NPPO plans. A separate application, fees, review and approval process is required for the SCZ. The case number for this review must be noted in the lower right corner of each sheet of the development plan, landscape and NPPO plans. All required elements of the SCZ (i.e. 30 foot buffer, view corridors, approved colors, etc..) as shown on the approved SCZ plan must be added to the development plan, along with date of approval and any conditions placed on that approval. A thirty-foot-wide buffer area, adjacent to the future MS & R right-of-way, is to be preserved in place and maintained in its natural state. Maximum height of a structure is one-third the distance of the structure from the future-right-of-way, not to exceed 24 feet in height. Material and/or paint description for areas of structures and signage visible from the Scenic Route are reviewed for colors, which are predominant within the surrounding landscape, such as desert and earthtones. The SCZ process requires that the applicant offer to meet with the adjacent property owners and neighborhood associations. (LUC 2.8.2) Contact Patricia Gehlen for information regarding the SCZ process and Sue Montes for mailing labels. 6. Dimension the PAAL width at the ingress/egress from River Rd. 7. Per DS 2-05.2.4.K For pedestrian circulation please provide the following: Indicate how the sidewalk located on the east side of the vehicular access from River Rd. connects to the pedestrian circulation for this project. Including handicap ramps and cross walks. The sidewalk to existing handicap ramp transition for the area previously stated does not meet ADA standards. Provide the correct handicap ramp for the corner. Truncated Dome (early warning systems) must be added to all access ramps where transitioning from the pedestrian area to the vehicular use area or at HC access aisles transitioning to the sidewalk area. Revise details also. The truncate domes indicated in detail 3 of 3 must be located where the sidewalk and the access aisle meet. The minimum depth for the truncated domes is 24" and must continue the full width of the access aisle. 8. Per DS2-05.2.4.Q Show, on the drawing, off-street bicycle parking locations, including materials for lighting and paving, type of security, dimensions, specific type of rack and the number of bicycles it supports, and the location and type of directional signage. When adjacent to pedestrian paths, indicate the width of clearance available for the pedestrian area. For specifics, refer to Development Standard 2-09.0. On the plan is indicated 4 class two bicycle parking spaces located on the east side of the proposed structure. 8 class two bicycle spaces are required. Clearly indicate the location of the additional bicycle parking spaces. Provide a detail of the prefabricated metal bike storage rack for the class 2 parking spaces as well as a detail of the class 1 bicycle storage unit. Directional signage will be required in order to direct users to the class 1 bicycle parking spaces as they do not appear to be visible from the street. Clearly indicate the location of the signage. 9. Depending on responses to comments and changes to this plan further comments may be forth coming.
