12/11/2013 JASON GREEN ENGINEERING REVIEW Reqs Change DATE: December 16, 2013
SUBJECT: Lee's 4 Wheel Drive Inc. Development Plan Package- Engineering Review
TO: Lee Taft
LOCATION: 3127 N Stone Ave; T13S R13E Sec36
REVIEWERS: Jason Green, CFM
ACTIVITY: DP13-0116


SUMMARY: Engineering Division of Planning & Development Services Department has received and reviewed the proposed Development Plan Package. Engineering Division does not recommend approval of the Development Plan Package at this time. This review falls under the Unified Development Code (UDC), Administration Manual (AM) and Technical Standards Manual (TSM). Refer to the following link for further clarification:
http://www.amlegal.com/nxt/gateway.dll/Arizona/tucson_az_udc/administrativemanual?f=templates$fn=default.htm$3.0$vid=amlegal:tucson_udc_az

The following items need to be addressed:


SITE PLAN:

1) AM Sec.2-06.3.5: Revise the development plan package to include the approval stamp in the lower right quadrant of each sheet, stamp is missing on Sheet 2. The link to the stamp can be found here: http://cms3.tucsonaz.gov/pdsd/cdrc-rezoning/cdrd-stamp.

2) AM Sec.2-06.3.12: Revise the development plan package to include the Sheet Index on Sheet 1 for both Sheets.

3) AM Sec.2-06.4.1: Revise the development plan package to provide the name, mailing and email addresses, and phone number of the primary property owner of the site, the developer of the project, registrant(s), and other person(s), firm(s), or organization(s) that prepared the development package documents shall be provided on the right half of the cover sheet.

4) AM Sec.2-06.4.2.B: Revise the development plan package to include a brief legal description of the property and a statement as to whether the project is a resubdivision. On resubdivisions, provide the recording information of the existing subdivision plat.

5) AM Sec.2-06.4.2.D: Revise the development plan package and the Title Block to include the page number and the total number of pages in the package (i.e., Sheet XX of XX).

6) AM Sec.2-06.4.3: The relevant Development Plan Package case number (DP13-0116) may be added to the lower right hand corner of the plan on all sheets.

7) AM Sec.2-06.4.3: Revise the development plan package to correctly label the address of the subject property. The Title Block currently state "3721" and not the correct "3127," revise.

8) AM Sec.2-06.4.4.C: Revise the development plan package and project location map to label the sections corners, scale and have it cover approximately one square mile. Standard scale is 3"=1 mile for a location map.

9) AM Sec.2-06.4.7.A.6: Revise the development plan document to reference the special overlay zone that is applicable to this site, specifically state that "the project is designed to meet the overlay zone criteria for Sec.5.4, Major Streets and Routes (MS&R) Setback Zone."

10) AM Sec.2-06.4.7.A.8.c: Revise the development plan package to provide a building/use expansion calculation on the plan. If the expansion is 25% or great the development plan package review will become full code compliant. Future comments maybe forth coming depending on the expansion calculations.


11) AM Sec.2-06.4.8.A: Revise the development plan package to label the site boundary perimeter information, including bearing in degrees, minutes, and seconds, with basis for bearing noted, together with distances in feet.

12) AM Sec.2-06.4.8.C: Revise the development plan package to label and dimension the width of the existing curb and sidewalk within the right-of-way. Clarify the right-of-way dimension for Stone Avenue so that it lines up with the property line as labeled on the plan.

13) AM Sec.2-06.4.9.H.1: Provide a copy of an approved site plan or a copy of an approved and finalized right-of-way use permit (T00EX00952 and/or T00EX01410) for the northern curb cut off of Stone Ave. Per the approved site plan submitted (1999) with this project there is only one curb cut shown for the site. Provide approval from TDOT Permits and Codes for both curb cuts that are currently shown in the 2012 Aerial.

14) AM Sec.2-06.4.9.H.2: Revise the development plan package to label and dimension the existing and future SVTs for both driveway entrances. SVTs are based on the line of sight matrix per TSM Sec.10-01.5.3 for a driveway to an Arterial MS&R Street.

15) AM Sec.2-06.4.9.H.4: Revise the development plan package to indicate if the existing street is public or private.

16) AM Sec.2-06.4.9.H.5.a: Revise the development plan package to label and dimension the PAAL width along the south side of the building. Verify minimum 24-foot width between the parking spaces and the loading zone and required pedestrian access path.

17) AM Sec.2-06.4.9.H.5.a: Revise the development plan package to label and dimension the PAAL widths for both entrances off of Stone Avenue.

18) AM Sec.2-06.4.9.H.5.a: Revise the development plan package to provide a barrier or separation along the west end of the southern parking area to prevent vehicles from extending past the parking lot area. Per UDC Sec.7.4.6.H. Barriers, such as post barricades or wheel stop curbing, are required in a vehicular use area to prevent vehicles from extending beyond the property lines, to prevent cars from damaging adjacent landscaping, walls, or buildings, overhanging adjacent sidewalk areas, and/or driving onto unimproved portions of the site.

19) AM Sec.2-06.4.9.H.5.a: Revise the development plan package to provide a back up spur at the west end of the parking area for the southern parking lot. Per UDC Sec.7.4.6.F.4.a A back-up spur must be provided at the end of a row of parking if no ingress or egress is provided at that end.

20) AM Sec.2-06.4.9.H.5.a: Revise the development plan package to label and dimension the required back up spur at the end of the row of parking in the northern parking lot. Per the last approved site plan that was provided with this project there is a required back up spur that was to be constructed at this area. Or provide a new last approved site plan showing approval and removal of the required back up spur.

21) AM Sec.2-06.4.9.H.5.a: Revise the development plan package to provide a typical parking space detail for both standard parking spaces and those for the physically disabled. Dimension the proposed wheel stops and provide a location dimension for the wheel stop per UDC Sec.7.4.6.H.3.

22) AM Sec.2-06.4.9.J: Revise the development plan package to correctly label and dimension the future MS&R right-of-way for Stone Ave. It appears that intersection tapering affects the site and the 65-feet dimension shown is inaccurate. The future right-of-way for Stone Avenue is 90-feet with a future intersection tapering dimension of 120-feet (60-feet ½ ROW tapering not the 65-feet as labeled) per the MS&R Map. If there is a larger intersection tapering dimension as shown on this plan set then provide written approval from TDOT Permits and Codes stating conformance with an approved TDOT plan.

23) AM Sec.2-06.4.9.J: Revise the development plan package to label and dimension the MS&R future sidewalk area, the future sight visibility triangles, etc. for Stone Avenue.

24) AM Sec.2-06.4.9.R: Revise the development plan package to provide a sidewalk from the existing building to the proposed storage area, shipping container and dumpster area. Per TSM Sec.7-03.3.B the areas within the development which must be connected include, but are not limited to, all buildings, all bicycle and vehicle parking areas, all recreation areas, all dumpster areas, and all other common use areas.

25) AM Sec.2-06.4.9.R: Revise the development plan package to provide a sidewalk along the south side of the existing building. Per TSM Sec.7-04.1.B a sidewalk is required adjacent and parallel to any access lane or PAAL on the side where buildings are located. Verify the minimum 24-foot PAAL width after including the sidewalk area.

26) AM Sec.2-06.4.9.R: Refer to comments from Ron Brown, RA Structural Plans Examiner for all onsite handicap accessibility comments that may be associated with this project.

27) AM Sec.2-06.4.9.T: Revise the development plan package to show refuse collection areas, including locations of dumpsters, screening location and materials, and vehicle maneuverability, fully dimensioned, and access route. If dumpster service is not proposed, indicate type of service. For specific information on refuse collection, refer to Section 8-01.0.0, Solid Waste and Recycle Disposal, Collection, and Storage, of the Technical Standards Manual. Refuse collection on all projects shall be designed based on that section, even if collection is to be contracted to a private firm. Indicate by general note how and where refuse pickup will be provided, central dumpster, individual recycle and refuse containers etc.
