If, at the end of that time, the development package 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 June 30, 2011

2. This development package was reviewed for compliance with the City of Tucson Development Standards (D.S.) and Land Use Code (LUC) for full code compliance.

3. The document provided is a copy of the minutes from the DRB not an approval. This document only recommends approval.

The following comments are based on the Development Package Submittal Requirements:

4. This comment was not addressed. Based on the "DEVELOPMENT PACKAGE/SHEET INDEX" there are a total of eleven (11) sheets therefore sheet one should show 1 of 11, sheet two should show sheet 2 of 11 etc. Also there are four (4) "ALTA/ACSM LAND TITLE SURVEY" sheets that have been submitted. If these sheets are to be part of this package the total number of sheets would be 15. The total number of sheets, X of 5, does not appear to be correct. As this is a development package the total number of sheet should include, site, grading, landscape, SWPP.

5. If the four (4) "ALTA/ACSM LAND TITLE SURVEY" are to be part of the development package include them in the sheet index. The Sheet Index shown on sheet one should include all sheets of the development package.

The following comments are based on the assumption that all lot split/reconfiguration issues have been addressed.

6. D.S. 2-01.3.7.A.4 Revise General Note 3 to include the proposed retail and residential uses. Also provide the subject section 3.5.9.2.A for the retail use.

7. D.S. 2-01.3.7.A.9.a Provide the floor area for all use on site.

8. D.S. 2-01.3.7.A.9.b As the retail/residential use are now proposed provide a floor area ratio (FAR) calculation that includes the proposed retail/residential areas

9. D.S. 2-01.3.7.A.9.b Based on the OCR-2 zone and a Residential Use, Development Designator "X" provide a lot coverage calculation for the residential use.

10. Provide written documentation from the COT Real Estate department that all issues in regards to the lot split/reconfiguration and right-of-way have been dealt with. D.S. 2-01.3.9.E There appears to be some type of lot split/reconfiguration planned for this project that includes the addition of right-of-way. Until the lot split/reconfiguration has been approved by the City of Tucson Zoning will be unable to approve the development package.

11. D.S. 2-01.3.9.H.5.a As new proposed uses are shown on the plan provide a vehicle parking calculation that reflects all proposed uses on the plan. This vehicle parking calculation should show the number required and provided spaces for all uses on site.

12. D.S. 2-01.3.9.H.5.d As new proposed uses are shown on the plan provide a bicycle parking calculation that reflects all proposed uses on the plan. This bicycle parking calculation should show the number of required and provided spaces for all uses on site.

13. Zoning acknowledges that the proposed use has been added to the plan but was not able to locate the square footage and height of the retail/residential areas. D.S. 2-01.3.9.Q Provide the square footage and the height of each commercial, industrial, or business structure and the specific use proposed within the footprint of the building(s).

14. If applicable ensure all changes are made to the grading and landscape plans.

CASE NUMBER: D10-0022

SUMMARY: The revised development package was submitted for the proposed Plaza Centro improvements. Engineering Division of Planning & Development Services Department has received and reviewed the revised Development Package including plan sheets, ALTA, truck maneuverability detail, Drainage Statement for Plaza Centro Garage (Martin Magelli, P.E., 8/19/10), revised SWPPP, and partial response letters. The landscaping comments need to be discussed in a meeting so that subsequent submittal may be approvable. Engineering Division does not recommend approval of the Development Package until the remaining items are addressed.

BASE LAYER SHEET COMMENTS:
1) Address the remaining base layer comments:
a) DS Sec.2-01.3.9.H.5.c: Unless not required by Zoning or Rezoning, show all loading zones for future commercial retail structures, and vehicle maneuverability fully dimensioned, and access route, and provide, as a note, the number of loading spaces required, the number provided, and the design vehicle.
b) The recently submitted ALTA sheets may be kept as an engineering supplemental review document for the case file and does not necessarily need to be added to the Development Package as part of the sheets since the pertinent information has been transferred from the ALTA to the Development Package sheets.
c) DS Sec.2-01.3.8.B: For the existing FO line add notation to legend or on planview whether the line will not be excavated after the construction of the building structure per communications with the FO utility.

SIGNING & STRIPING SHEET COMMENT:
2) DS Sec.2-01.3.9.H.3: There are two entrance lanes on the south side -clarify or add signage to prevent traffic conflict for vehicles in right lane wanting to proceed straight when a vehicle in the left lane wants to go right toward the second floor.

LANDSCAPE PLAN COMMENTS:
3) DS Sec.2-01.3.9.O: Regarding landscape sheets address the remaining comments:
a) DS Sec.2-01.3.9.O: On sheets 2 & L-3.1 delineate and label SVT's. Remove any non-conforming tree from SVT at east entrance that falls within SVT.
b) Landscaping and associated irrigation will increase potential damage to the foundation of the proposed structure. Per Geotechnical Report, planters and landscaping is not advised adjacent to or near building structures. Either provide additional geotechnical addenda, or show compliance to geotechnical recommendations by adding drain-out systems such as Type 1 scuppers directing runoff away from building structure for any waterharvest area that has ponding potential or irrigation lines.

GRADING, PAVING, UTILITIES PLAN / DETAIL SHEET COMMENTS:
4) Address the remaining comments:
a) Show the roof drainage arrows to a planview.
b) DS Sec.2-01.3.8.E: On a planview sheet, label and identify local vertical benchmark with elevation and datum.
c) DS Sec.2-01.3.9.N.3: The existing stormdrain pipe crossing south portion of project will need to be extended and may need the stormdrain manhole adjusted so that the pipe is not beneath the proposed stairwell structure.

SOILS/GEOTECHNICAL/ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT COMMENTS:
5) DS Sec.2-01.4.2.A: If any type of retention is being proposed to be waived and detention requirements are met using surface basins and/or water harvesting areas, provide referenced Exhibit A section 8 of the phase 1 Environmental Assessment to substantiate subsurface constraints at site that would provide reason for waiving retention. The Environmental Assessment report is needed to be provided to CDRC for resubmittal. The CD that was submitted for the Phase 1 ESA was unreadable. Provide a copy of the report or provide a readable CD.

Please provide a revised Development Package plan sheets, Environmental Assessment report or readable CD, ALTA survey, revised Drainage Statement, SWPPP and a complete response letter that addresses all of the remaining comments. If you have questions, call me at 837-4934.
