Parking spaces required for visitors will be uniformly distributed throughout the project and may be located in parking areas or on streets designed with designated parking lanes. Additional parking spaces located on individual lots will not be considered to satisfy this requirement, as these spaces are located on private property and cannot be used by the guests of other residents.
DS 3-01.6.2.C.2
DS 3-01.2.4.D
LUC 3.6.1.4.F.2.b

4. A minimum of 25% of lots must be provided with barrier-free accessibility. Provide a general note stating which of the five proposed lots will be barrier-free.

Urban Planning and Design Comments
S06-033 Lee Street RCP
February 17, 2006

Because this project is being proposed as a Residential Cluster Project (RCP), it must comply with section 3.6.1 of the Land Use Code, specifically section 3.6.1.4 of the general development criteria. The RCP requires compliance with policies of the General Plan, the Arcadia-Alamo Area Plan, and the Design Guidelines Manual. The Plans require community amenities, such as but not limited to; streetscapes with pedestrian oasis, common area(s) of appropriate land size(s) to sustain residential amenities for all.

The City of Tucson General Plan and the Design Guidelines Manual address the importance of development that uses colors of the natural environment which include a variety of blended shades such as blues, yellows, oranges, greens, purples and reds. Applying a variety of these colors to this RCP would be consistent with the variety of colors surrounding the area. Please visit the Urban Planning and Design’s website link to view The Sonoran Desert Color Palette for Building Exteriors”: http://www.ci.tucson.az.us/planning/sonorandesertcolors.pdf, Please make a note on the plat that no two homes with the same façade or color scheme shall be placed next to one another.

The Design Guidelines Manual states that side and rear building facades should be built with attention to architectural character and detail comparable to the front façade, particularly if rear and side facades are visible from streets or adjacent properties. Enhancement can include design treatments such a pop outs, color variation, etc. Please submit elevations illustrating how this requirement will be satisfied.

The Plans call for innovative site design to include design elements of usable open space and active/passive recreational space and that those pedestrian facilities be accessible to the handicapped. [An active/passive adult recreational facility, which includes a tot lot with appropriate tot equipment and ground material]. The detention basin (Common Area “B”) can serve a dual purpose with the placement of required amenities within and surrounding the basin. For a project this size amenities can include, but are not limited to: a table, an outdoor grill, and/or shaded sitting area(s). The slopes surrounding the basin should be adjusted to provide handicap accessibility to the amenities by way of an all-weather ADA compliant path that connects to the proposed sidewalks within the subdivision. Please illustrate on the landscape plan how this requirement will met.

Any proposed masonry walls shall be constructed of, or painted with, graffiti-resistant materials. These walls shall incorporate on of the following decorative materials: (a) tile, (b) stone, (c) brick, (d) textured brick/block, (e) a coarse-textured material such as stucco or plaster, or (f) a combination of both. Please add this note to the “general notes” section.

Per Development Standard 2-10.3.2.B & C and LUC Sec. 3.6.1.4.A.3, the RCP is less than four (4) acres and must be compatible in architectural design with, or complementary to, the design characteristics of those existing single-family attached or detached structures along the same block frontage and the block frontage across the street, and/or development on the opposite lot corners. Massing of proposed structures to existing structures will be a part of this review. The tentative plat should identify the height of existing structures that surround the project site. Proposed height must be indicated on the tentative plat. Please submit plans showing how the RCP will comply with these design requirements. Photos, dimensioned elevations, or a combination of both must be submitted.
03/08/2006 PETER MCLAUGHLIN LANDSCAPE REVIEW Denied 1. A 5-foot screen wall is required to screen any parking areas from adjacent residentially zoned property. Revise the landscape plan to include the required screen wall in accordance with LUC Table 3.7.2-I. Note the height and type of material/construction.

2. Landscape borders along parking areas where plants are susceptible to injury by vehicular traffic must be protected by appropriate means, such as curbs, bollards, or low walls per LUC 3.7.2.3.B. Provide concrete wheel stops or protection for landscaped areas in front of parking spaces.

3. Add the subdivision case number (S06-033) to the lower right hand corner of all sheets of the Plat, Landscape Plan and NPPO Plan.
DS 2-03.2.2.B.1

4. Refer to DS 2-07.2.2 and DS 2-06.5.4 for the specific content required for Grading information on the landscape plan. Revise landscape plan to include required content and specifications. Grading information on the landscape plan shall include contour lines, spot elevations, percent slope across the site and direction of slope of paved areas, existing grades on adjacent rights-of-way and adjacent sites.
DS 2-07.0, LUC 3.7.4.3.B

RESUBMITTAL REQUIRED: Tentative Plat

Please attach a response letter with the next submittal, which states how all Engineering/Floodplain Review Section comments regarding the Development Standards were addressed.

D.S. 2-03.0 Platting Procedures

1. Location map appears cluttered with excess parcel information, for example 10/96. Is this additional information needed? If not please remove.

2. Verify that all existing easements are drawn on the plat, and recordation information, locations, widths, and purposes are included. If the easement is not in use and proposed for abandonment, so indicate. Blanket easements should be listed in the notes, together with recordation data and their proposed status. D.S. 2-03.2.3.C

3. Verify if there are existing storm drainage facilities on and adjacent to the site, if so they shall be shown. D.S. 2-03.2.3.G

4. Verify that all proposed easements (utility, sewer, drainage, access, etc.) are dimensioned and labeled as to their purposes and whether they are to be public or private. D.S. 2-03.2.4.J

5. Label curb returns radii.

6. Due to the frequency of curb opening for driveways it appears that the overall length of curb opening exceeds the length of vertical curbs; therefore a 2 feet separation is needed from the back of curb to sidewalk.

7. The drainage report states that there is minimal offsite runoff acceptance points, but verify that there will be no adverse drainage affects to existing adjacent lots by drawing locations and indicating types of off-site runoff acceptance points on these drawings. D.S. 2-03.2.4.L.7

8. A conceptual grading plan is required on projects with significant topographic conditions. The City Engineer or designee will determine the need for such a plan. D.S. 2-03.2.4.K

9. Grading Plan. Generally, the grading plans may be submitted for review upon approval of the tentative plat. Should the applicant wish, the grading plan could be submitted after the second resubmittal of the tentative plat; however, the grading plan cannot be approved unless it is in conformance with an approved tentative plat. In the case of a tentative plat submitted in conjunction with a rezoning request, the grading plan and the tentative plat cannot be approved until thirty (30) days after adoption of the rezoning ordinance. D.S. 2-03.5.2

10. It is recommended that the maintenance responsibility for all drainage facilities (including detention basins) be in any future CC&R's and a maintenance checklist should be provided similar to the checklist provided in the Drainage Report. This will allow the HomeOwners Association access to the list and facilitate their maintenance responsibility.

11. At this time there were no comments in regards to the Drainage Report. The Drainage report was reviewed for Tentative Plat purposes only and any changes to the Tentative Plat or future Grading Plans may require modifications to the Drainage Report.

Tucson Electric Power Company (TEP) has no objection to the preliminary plat submitted for review on February 10, 2006.

The preliminary point where TEP will serve this project is from the pole unit number 40. Please note the pole will need to be changed out for riser to feed this project. This will require an additional easement for the transformer and possible dedication by final plat for primary cable. Please note conflict with service may result in possible billable costs. Enclosed is a copy of TEP’s facility map showing the approximate location and unit numbers of the existing facilities. Also enclosed is a copy of the tentative plat showing where TEP will be placing the aboveground equipment for this subdivision. This is not a preliminary design. TEP has provided this drawing to show where the proposed locations are for transformers and pedestals.

TEP will provide a preliminary electrical design on the Approved Tentative Plat within thirty (15) working days upon receipt of the plat. Additional plans necessary for preparation of the design are: building plans including water, electrical, landscape, sidewalk and paving plans. Also, submit the AutoCAD version of the plat on a CD or email to kclark@tep.com. Should you have any questions, please contact me at (520) 918-8271.
