The City Engineer is to be notified if watershed conditions have changed to the extent that drainage and detention/retention systems no longer satisfy the requirements of the Floodplain Regulations found in the Tucson Zoning Code. 20. Small, local detention basins constructed in compliance with Section 23-469 of the Tucson Zoning Code will not be accepted by the City of Tucson for maintenance or liability. All local detention/retention basins shall be constructed according to current design standards, and they must include appropriate access and maintenance easements, including an unobstructed access route into the basin.

| 02/13/2006 | DAVID RIVERA | ZONING | REVIEW | Denied | CDRC TRANSMITTAL TO: Development Services Department Plans Coordination Office FROM: David Rivera Principal Planner PROJECT: D05-0047 El Con Mall Pad 1- Office Max Development Plan TRANSMITTAL DATE: February 9, 2006 DUE DATE: January 25, 2006 COMMENTS: 1. Section 5.3.8.2, LUC, permits a maximum of one year from the date of application to obtain approval of a development plan. If, at the end of that time, the development plan has not been approved, it must be revised to be in compliance with all regulations in effect at that time, and must be resubmitted for a full CDRC review. The one-year expiration date for this development plan is December 22, 2006. The location of the proposed Office Max building encroaches onto the R-2 zone parcel. No development other than parking spaces, landscaping, or PAALs may occur within the residentially zoned area. This plan has been reviewed by the Zoning review section as a courtesy and in no way implies that the proposed location is acceptable. Additional comments may be forthcoming based on the redesign of the building location. 2. If the project is located within the boundaries of a Planned Area Development (PAD) zone, such as Williams Addition, Gateway Center, Tucson Community Center, Rio Nuevo, La Entrada, or Civano, include a reduced-scale map of the PAD District on the first sheet, indicating the location of the portion being developed. A separate sheet depicting the entire shopping center with the proposed development site highlighted or clouded should be included in the development plan package. The sheet that should to be included is labeled as SP1.0 dated 2-11-02 with the CDRC stamped of approval. 3. Include in the title block the Pad number and name of the proposed development. Also include a brief legal description based on the section, township, and range unless this is a resubdivision of a previously platted parcel. DS 2-05.2.1.G.1 and .2 4. A legend, which shows and describes all symbols used on the drawing, is to be placed on the plan, preferably on the first sheet. DS 2-05.2.1.J 5. This project has been assigned the development plan case number D05-0047. Please list the case number in the lower right corner of plan sheets. DS 2-05.2.2.B.2 6. Revise general note 8 as follows.

If applicable, draw, label, and dimension existing or proposed easements within the Pad area. DS 2-05.2.3.B and DS 2-05.2.4.G 8. Draw and dimension the future curb location to the future property line. Clarify if the existing curb location is also considered the future curb location. Also please dimension the existing curb to property line. Although it is acknowledged that the building setback for the proposed structure has been met, please add a dimension from the back of the existing curb and future back of curb if different than the existing curb location. DS 2-05.2.3.C 9. Please review online zoning maps and revise the zoning classifications on the development plan appropriately. DS 2-05.2.4.B 10. Please dimension the width of the PAAL area along the north side of the pad. DS 2-05.2.4.D.3 11. If applicable, Show all right-of-way dedications on or abutting the site and label. If the development plan has been prepared in conjunction with a subdivision plat or is required as a condition of approval of a review process, such as a rezoning, street dedications in accordance with the Major Streets and Routes (MS&R) Plan may be required by these processes. DS 2-05.2.4.E If street dedication is not required or proposed and the project site is adjacent to a Major Street or Route, draw and dimension the Major Street right-of-way lines for those streets. (Add the MS&R future sidewalk, right-of-way lines, etc.) DS 2-05.2.4.F 12. Please revise the section of the pedestrian circulation as follows: Along the east side of the building a crosswalk has been proposed which must be revised to a raised concrete sidewalk with a minimum of four feet in width unless a greater width is required by the Pad document. The crosswalk as depicted is unsafe and does not meet the DS 2-08. The crosswalk can be revised to provide a concrete sidewalk with an access ramp and the access to loading dock can still be accessible. The sidewalk should extend as far north to a point where the access ramps would meet and a painted crosswalk can be provided to continue the circulation. Please revise as required. Also all access ramps shall be constructed with truncated domes. Please add a keynote for the truncated domes. DS 2-05.2.4.K 13. On the drawing, show the locations and footprints of all structures. Label the heights and building dimensions. DS 2-05.2.4.N 14. Dimension the loading dock area and specifically the loading space. The space must be a minimum of 12 feet wide by 35 feet long. Demonstrate maneuverability in and out of the loading space. DS 2-05.2.4.O 15. Please review the "Parking Tabulations (Actual)" for completeness. It does not appear that the correct information has been added midway through section of the tabulations text block. Please revise as required. DS 2-05.2.4.P 16.

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. Provide, as a note, calculations on the number of bicycle spaces required and the number provided. Please keep in mind that both class one and class two spaces are required. DS 2-05.2.4.Q 17.

Indicate location and type of postal service to assure there are no conflicts with other requirements, such as pedestrian accessibility, utilities, and landscaping. DS 2-05.2.4.V 21. Show compliance with landscaping and screening requirements by locations, material descriptions, and dimensions. Specific plant or hardscape material shall be detailed on a landscape plan. For submittal with a development plan, a conceptual landscape plan showing typicals of proposed planting areas is sufficient. A detailed landscape plan is required at the time of application for permits. For more specific information, refer to Development Standard 2-07.0. See the landscape reviewer comments for more information. DS 2-05.2.4.X 22. As indicated in comment two, this plan has been reviewed as a courtesy. The fact that a portion of the building is proposed for construction in the R-2 zoned parcel is in violation. This plan will have to be redesigned or rezoning of the R-2 parcel would be required prior to any building construction on the R-2 parcel. If you have any questions about this transmittal, please call David Rivera, (520) 791-5608.
