Also please clarify what the new building is to be used for. The note indicates "test equipment building", there is no such use in the code. If this facility is a use such as a "Research and Development" use where prototypes are being developed and tested the proposed use of the new building would be an accessory use to the primary use of the facility. As of this review it is not very clear. The type of testing needs to be clarified as well.


2-06.4.7.A.8.a - Floor area for each building;

13. COMMENT: In the UDC there is no longer a Floor Area Ratio requirement. Under general note 3 remove the floor area ratio notation and just list the square footage of the new building. (See Redlines)

15. COMMENT: Clarify what is the primary use of the facility. Is the office use subordinate to the manufacturing use or the other way around? In order to verify what the use of the new building is to be considered whether and accessory or primary use, the uses as listed need to be clarified. Additional comments could be forthcoming based on the clarification to this and similar comments above related to the uses.


2-06.4.8 - Existing Site Conditions

A typical parking space detail shall be provided for both standard parking spaces and those for the physically disabled. For information on parking requirements for the physically disabled, refer to adopted building and accessibility codes of the City of Tucson. Design criteria for parking spaces and access are located in Section 7.4.6, Motor Vehicle Use Area Design Criteria, of the UDC.

19. COMMENT: As noted in other comments above, once the primary use is noted the vehicle parking calculation can be verified for compliance. Again clarify if the is a primary use on this site or are there multiple uses?
