| 03/29/2004 | DAVID RIVERA | ZONING | REVIEW | Denied | CDRC TRANSMITTAL TO: Development Services Department Plans Coordination Office FROM: David Rivera Senior Planner FOR: Patricia Gehlen Principal Planner PROJECT: S03-029 Vista Montaña, Lots 1-381 and Common Areas "A" - "D" Tentative Plat T TRANSMITTAL: March 26, 2003 DUE DATE: March 30, 2003 COMMENTS: 1. Section 4.1.7.1, LUC, permits a maximum of one year from the date of application to obtain approval of a tentative plat. If, at the end of that time, the tentative plat 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 tentative plat is November 14, 2004. 2. ***Note: Has the developer inquired about possibly processing the necessary blanket variance for the third phase? If the developer would like to process the Board of Adjustment variances for Phase three please contact the Wayne Bogdan or Russlyn Wells with Zoning Administration at 791-4541. The Board of Adjustment variance may be approved so that the variances are effectuated upon recordation of the final plat of Phase three. This is a suggestion and not a requirement. (Previous Comment: I acknowledge that a Board of Adjustment variance is to be applied for the existing manufactured housing sites. It will be necessary to provide the proper drawings indicating the deficiencies of each developed lot in order for the CDRC Reviewers to review each site. The drawings may be submitted at the time of the Phase III final plat submittal.) If applicable, add a note based on any zoning variances or modifications per LDO's, DSMR's or PDO's. DS 2-03.2.2.B.6 3. The statement for the MS&R was added but the RCP statement was not. Please add the following statement as follows, "Developments Phase one and two meet the design criteria for the Residential Cluster Project Overlay, Phase three will meet the design criteria with approved variances". (Previous Comment: This project is subject to the criteria of the Major Street and Routes Setback Zone (MS&R) LUC Section 2.8.3 and the Residential Cluster Project (RCP) LUC Section 3.6.1 overlays. Please add a note that states that the project has been designed in accordance with the criteria of both overlays.) DS 2-03.2.2.B.7 4. Provide a separate response letter stating how all the rezoning conditions have been addressed and how they meet the intent of the condition. Include drawings or documents that help demonstrate compliance. 5. Per rezoning condition 1.e, all existing residences must be indicated on the plan. All existing residence locations except lot 220 have been shown. Please indicate on sheet one that a mobile home has been placed on lot 220. It will be necessary to documentation that clarifies how rezoning condition 5 will addressed. The fair disclosure statement is a requirement due to the proximity of the AZ State prison. The statement has nothing to do with a rental park. Please specify how all prospective owners will be notified, will there be a separate letter with the disclosure statement requiring acknowledgement by the prospective owners or will the statement be included in the CC&R's. This statement will be required to be placed on all individual future site plans when processing through DSD for building permits. I believe that a plan must be submitted to the City Of Tucson Police Department for review. 6. Please list the number of lots and common areas on the title sheet of the CC&R's. Also I could not find any language dealing with annexation of future phases. It has been stated and depicted on the tentative plat that this development will be phased. Technically the CC&R's will be enforceable for phase one at this time. Please add language allowing annexation of future phases. If you have any questions about this transmittal, please call David Rivera, (520) 791-5608.

| 04/02/2004 | TIM ROWE | PIMA COUNTY | WASTEWATER | Approv-Cond | April 08, 2004 TO: John Evans, P.E., JAE Consulting Engineers THRU: Craig Gross, City of Tucson Development Services FROM: Tim Rowe, P.E. Development Review Division (Wastewater) SUBJECT: Vista Montana Estates, Lots 1-379 and Common Areas A-D Tentative Plat – 2nd Submittal S03-029 The above-referenced project has been reviewed on behalf of the Pima County Wastewater Management Department. The following comments are offered for your use: Sheet 1; Delete from General Note 33 the words “and is not a condition of approval of this tentative plat”. Sheets 5 & 6: Items 8 & 12 of my review letter dated January 26, 2004 have not been adequately addressed. The proposed development must not interfere with Pima County’s existing sewer facilities, or Pima County’s ability to drive to and maintain these facilities. Revise as outlined below: Align the side of the hammerhead turn around in Cooperstown Drive with the property lines of Lot 138. The 25’ radius of the southeast corner of Lot 138 will provide an adequate turning radius in this case, because our sewer maintenance vehicles will be able to turn wide in the hammerhead of the private street. Re-design the drainage facilities as necessary to allow Pima County’s sewer maintenance vehicles to drive along the 20’ public sewer easement granted by Docket 11154, Page 1117, from existing manhole 4715-04 to existing manhole 4715-03, and to prevent the rainwater run-off from either eroding the ground surface over existing public sewer line G-99-085, or from interfering with Pima County’s vehicular access down the 20’ public sewer easement granted by Docket 11154, Page 1117. A re-alignment of existing sewer line G-99-085 may be proposed, but such a re-alignment is not being requested by this letter. Please be advised that the information contained within Item 2 of my review letter dated January 26, 2004 (and the verbal information provided to you regarding the applicable sewer connection fee rate during our meeting shortly after that) is no longer correct. The whole of this project will not qualify for the Participating sewer connection fee rate. Talaco Development and the previous owners of this property have elected not to construct the 1825’ of 18” flowthrough sewer line along the northeast side of the property to the east boundary that was required by the Sewer Service Agreement (Contract No. 14-03-W-126-231-0799) for the earlier development of this property under case no. D99-013. Per your March 15, 2004 response letter, this 1825’ of 18” flowthrough sewer line will be built by Diamond Ventures as a part of their Sycamore Park project (aka Kolb Road and Voyager Road) shown in file no. S03-030. Pursuant to Pima County Code Title 13.20.040, Pima County will need to grant the Participating sewer connection fee rate to 73 lots within Diamond Venture’s project for the construction of this 1825’ of qualifying sewer line. Talaco Development will need to reimburse Pima County for this loss of connection fee revenue, as the cause of this is Talaco Development’s failure to construct this 1825’ of flowthrough sewer line as required by that Sewer Service Agreement. Therefore, during the final plat review process, a Sewer Service Agreement will be prepared for this project wherein the Non-Participating sewer connection fee rate will be assigned to 73 lots within this development. The Non-Participating lots will be Lots 1-73, as they will not be served by the existing public and private sewers, and they are the furthest away from the existing public sewer lines. The remainder of the lots (Lots 74-381) will be assigned the Participating sewer connection fee rate in recognition that a previous owner of the property built an off-site extension of the public sewer system to serve this property. 4. We will require a complete set of the revised bluelines, and a response letter, addressing these comments. Additional comments may be made during the review of these documents. Pima County Ordinance 2003-29 went into effect on April 11, 2003. This ordinance requires that a wastewater review fee be paid for each submittal of a development plan or subdivision plat. The review fee for the first submittal is $166 plus $50 per sheet. For the second submittal, the review fee is $50 per sheet. For all subsequent submittals, the review fee is $39 per sheet. The next submittal of this project will be the 3rd submittal. Please include a $78.00 check for the wastewater review fees (made out to PIMA COUNTY TREASURER) with the revised set of bluelines and response letter. If other sheets are added to the set of plans, or revised in such a manner that the sewer design is impacted, please adjust the review fee accordingly. If you wish to discuss the above comments, please contact me at 740-6947. Tim Rowe, P.E. Development Review Division (Wastewater) Copy: Project TR/ST/tr |

Phone: (520) 740-6586 Director FAX: (520) 740-6380 May 04, 2003 TO: John Evans, JAE Consulting Engineers THRU: FROM: ____________________________________ representing the Pima County Departments of Wastewater Management and Environmental Quality SUBJECT: Revised Review Letter – Vista Montana Estates, Lots 1-379 and Common Areas A-D Tentative Plat – 2nd Submittal S03-029 The proposed sewer collection lines to serve the above-referenced project have been reviewed on behalf of the Pima County Department of Environmental Quality (PDEQ) and the Pima County Wastewater Management Department (PCWMD). This review letter may contain comments pertaining to the concerns of either Department. The following comments are offered for your use: This letter supercedes my review letter dated April 8, 2004. for the above referenced submittal of the tentative plat for this project. On April 29, 2004, the following individuals attended a meeting on this date regarding this project: Mr. Robert Decker, PCWMD Planning Services Manager Mr. Subhash Ravel, PCDSD Technical Services and Development Review Manager Mr. Tim Rowe, PCDSD Development Review Engineer Mr. John Evans, JAE Consulting Engineers Mr. Al LaCanne, Interstate Investments, Inc. Mr. Ross Cooper, New Horizons Realty Advisors and reached the following agreements: Sheet 1: General Note 33 may remain as written. Sheet 5: The hammerhead turn around in Cooperstown Drive may align with the property lines of Lot 138 (and the public sewer easement) as shown. Sheet 6: Vehicular access to existing manhole 3 of public sewer line G-98-092 will be provided in the following manner: Pima County’s sewer maintenance vehicles will travel in Common Area C, between the southernmost property lines of Lots 1-147 and the north edge of the drainage channel, to the ramp adjacent to the retention basin. A 14’ wide lime slurry stabilized surface per PC/COT Standard Detail WWM 111 (or equivalent surface) shall be placed in Common Area C along this path, and the homo owners association (HOA) shall keep this area clear at all times. The sewer maintenance vehicles will then travel through a gate located at the top of the ramp, that is equipped with both County and HOA locks and down the ramp. The gate shall span the entire width of the ramp. The ramp shall be gunited and have a minimum width of 12'. The sewer maintenance vehicles will then travel to existing manhole #3 over a gunited surface to be installed in the bottom of the drainage channel. The gunited surface shall be configured in such a manner to provide sufficient turnaround area for the sewer maintenance vehicles to exit the drainage channel. The gunited surface in the bottom of the drainage channel shall be configured in such a fashion that it surrounds cxisting manhole #3 for a distance of least 6' in each direction as measured from the center of the manhole cover. The gunited surface surrounding existing manhole #3 shall be designed in such a manner as to prevent the flow in the drainageway from scouring a hole over existing public sewer line, G-98-092. A cut-off wall shall be installed along all edges of the rip-rap, not bordered by the gunited walls of the channel. The gunited surface shall be capable of supporting H-20 loading in all areas where the sewer maintenance vehicles can be expected to travel. This area will be be all of the area in the bottom of the channel that is west of the bottom of the ramp to the rip-rap. Existing manhole #3 will be raised so that the manhole cover is at least 1' above the expected maximum high water line in the channel. The manhole cone shall be equipped with a solid, watertight cover and a locking mechnanism acceptable to the PCWMD. Only Lots 1-23 will be assigned the non-participating sewer connection fee rate status when a Sewer Service Agreement is prepared for this project during the final plat review process. The remainder of the lots shall be assigned the Participating sewer connection fee rate status. Subject to the above, the tentative plat is hereby approved. A resubmittal of bluelines with wastewater review fees are not required. The required features will be required to be shown on the sewer improvement plans. If you wish to discuss the above comments, please contact me at the phone number provided on the first sheet. |
