FROM: Heather Thrall Senior Planner

PROJECT: S06-125
Rincon Knolls Residential Cluster Project Subdivision
Tentative Plat, 4th review

TRANSMITTAL DATE: September 5, 2007
DUE DATE: September 6, 2007

CONDITIONAL APPROVAL

1. The Zoning Review Section grants conditional approval of the tentative plat for this subdivision, subject to the following changes on the executed tentative plat. However, should there be any changes requested by other CDRC members, the Zoning Review Section approval is void, and we request copies of the revised tentative plat to verify that those changes do not affect any zoning requirements.

2. Per DS 2-03.2.4.E, The overall site coverage percentage shown on page 34 exceeds the 50% allowed per rezoning condition 10. The site coverage note indicates items other than building footprints and square footage of vehicular use area (driveways, streets) are considered in the site coverage calculations. These items (rip rap, drainageways, NROS) can be removed from the site coverage calculations. In their place, however, the temporary fire access roads must be included in that calculation. Staff is granting a conditional approval with the understanding the site coverage will be modified to be a maximum of 50% overall. Please be sure that the largest residence footprint is used in the calculations.

3. Per DS 2-03.2.4.J, I acknowledge the Mayor & Council will hear the request to acquire the State of Arizona land, for the Mary Ann Cleveland Way access, on September 18, 2007. This comment shall remain until the Mayor & Council approves the acquisition.

4. Depending upon responses provided, further review comments may be forthcoming.

A. - Department of Urban Planning and Design (DUPD) Comments
S06-125 - Rincon Knolls - Tentative Plat
October 9, 2006


The following comments are carry-over from staff's (DUPD) previous comments. These are comments, which have not yet been addressed adequately to comply with rezoning requirements.

4. The proposed tentative Plat, with submittal dated 9/18/06 shows the required Pantano River Park corridor (Trail # 5), to be located off-site, along the full length of the western edge of the development. As a requirement of option "A" of rezoning condition # 9, the tentative plat process requires the owner/developer to receive approval on the location of the Pantano River Park corridor (Trail #5), by the Arizona State Land Department, Pima County Department of Natural Resources, and the City of Tucson Parks and Recreational Department.

Therefore, prior to tentative plat approval, the applicant shall provide documentation that verifies the proposed location of the Pantano River Park corridor (Trail #5) has been reviewed and tentatively approved by the applicable entities.

5. Rezoning condition # 20 requires a native canopy tree within ten feet of the front property line on every other lot, on every street within the development. Landscape plan to read verbatim the language provided by rezoning condition # 20. Please revise landscape plan, sheet 1 of 9, note #13 to read as following:

Provide a native canopy tree within ten feet of the front property line on every other lot, on every street within the development.

6. Landscape plan, sheet 1 of 11, note #9 provides instructions on how to install the required temporary fencing, based on development standards. However, as written note # 9 does not acknowledge rezoning requirements related to the installation of temporary fences. Please revise landscape plan, sheet 1 of 11, note # 9 to be in compliance with rezoning conditions # 11 & 12. Rezoning conditions # 11 and 12 read as following:

Rezoning Condition # 11
Temporary construction fences shall be installed on the NUOS boundary. Construction fencing shall be installed under the supervision of a registered land surveyor. Grading will not be permitted until the installation of the construction fencing in compliance with the tentative plat, grading plan, and final plat has been verified by a survey prepared by a registered land surveyor.

Rezoning Condition #12
Temporary construction fences and the required NUOS boundary fences shall be installed under the supervision of a registered land surveyor. Upon completion of all required fencing installation, the registered land surveyor shall certify by letter that the physical placement of all required temporary construction fencing has been installed as shown and identified on final plat and grading plan.


7. As per previous staff comment, dated July 5, 2006, - Please revise the tentative plat NUOS and NROS calculations to exclude land area (square footage) from land designated, since the concept design, for Parks and Trail amenities. These Common Areas are located within Neighborhood Open Spaces/Common Areas "B," and per rezoning condition #15, these common areas are required to be constructed with recreational amenitities.

The current submittal shows one recreational area (amenity) within Neighborhood 5, for all of the 500 residential units. As per the conceptual development plan, Common Areas "B" designated for park amenities include the following Common Areas "B,"
· Common Area "B" located north of Neighborhood 7, and;
· Common Areas "B" located within Neighborhoods 1, 3, 4, and 5.

This project is a residential cluster project (RCP) and among other considerations, requires appropriate and accessible recreational amenities to be designed as part of an RCP project, as outlined under section 3.6.1.1.G is the following:

LUC 3.6.1.1.G - Providing usable and suitably located recreational facilities and other public and common facilities.

Established park areas in the conceptual development plan are shown on this resubmittal as NUOS areas. Compliance with rezoning C9-06-07, condition # 15, requires all Common Areas outlined in the conceptual development plan as Park Areas, to include a combination of the following landscape material and recreational amenities, as approved by the City of Tucson through the tentative plat process:

Rezoning C9-06-07, conditions # 15 reads:
All pocket parks shall be landscaped with thornless native trees, plants and shrubs. Tot lots shall have turf areas, a ramada and a table and benches , bar-be-que grills, and attached trash receptacles. All weather access shall be provided for pedestrian paths that connect the street sidewalk to all pocket park amenities.

8. Prior to tentative plat approval, the Department of Urban Planning & Design requires documentation which establishes that the applicant is in contact with the Department of Development Services (DSD), Zoning Review Section to discuss an agreement on methods by which rezoning condition # 19, 21 and 22 will be tracked for compliance at the time of housing permit issuance.



B - Office of Conservation and Sustainable Development (OCSD) Comments
S06-125 - Rincon Knolls - Tentative Plat
October 23, 2006

OCSD staff comments:

1. Rezoning C9-06-07, conditions # 28 reads: A Desert Tortoise survey shall be completed prior to tentative plat approval. If any Desert Tortoise and/or active burrows are located on site, a qualified biological monitor shall be present during all phases of construction to insure Tortoise viability. In the event that active burrows are located within a grading limits, a complete mitigation plan must be completed and submitted to the City of Tucson Environmental Services Department.

Tierra Right of Way Services prepared and submitted a Sonoran Desert Tortoise Survey and Mitigation Report for this property, dated August 18, 2006. This report provided specific information on tortoise occupancy and habitat conditions at the site, and described mitigation measures needed to address impacts to tortoises, burrows and habitat due to construction and permanent occupancy of the site.

In the mitigation plan, Tierra reiterated the commitments made by AmericaBuilt in the March 10, 2006 Environmental Resources Report, which included, but were not limited to, constructing artificial burrows to replace disturbed occupied burrows, addressing tortoise identification and relocation during construction activities, enhancing vegetation in disturbed areas using species appropriate for tortoise habitat, and addressing wildlife crossings with signage, speed controls and conarches beneath roadways. AmericaBuilt also indicated they may provide educational materials to homebuyers addressing the tortoises.

In the recommendation section of the mitigation plan, Tierra referenced the addendum dated April 17, 2006, to the March 10, 2006 Environmental Resources Report, which describes the locations and designs of wildlife crossings at wildlife corridors 1 through 5. Tierra recommended that all mitigation measure regarding wildlife corridors as approved in this addendum, and all conditions of rezoning, be followed.

Finally, Tierra specified additional recommendations to address site monitoring prior to grading, tortoise tagging during relocation, biological monitoring during construction activities, training of construction personnel, appropriate species for use in revegetation efforts, and educational materials.

The current plan set submitted by AmericaBuilt has minimal information regarding wildlife crossings, and does not appear to direct plan implementers from the primary construction sheets to the minimal wildlife crossing details that are made available on sheet 23. The details on sheet 23 do not provide sufficient information to ensure the crossings will be constructed consistent with details in the April 17, 2006 Addendum to the Environmental Resources Report.

To ensure the measures specified in the above-referenced documents to mitigate for impacts to Desert Tortoise are fully incorporated, AmericaBuilt shall revise plans as follows:

a. Add a separate sheet in the tentative plat specifically to address Desert Tortoise, wildlife crossings, and other wildlife details. This sheet should contain the following, at a minimum:
- Full site plan showing the locations of all wildlife crossings, signage, and all other wildlife-related features per the documents referenced above
- Cross sections, plan views, and any other details needed to fully specify detailed construction information for wildlife crossings per the specifications in the documents references above
- Specific instructions for contacting qualified biological monitoring personnel prior to site grading and during construction activities, including contact information for approved monitoring personnel
- Instructions on how to proceed if Desert Tortoises are encountered by site personnel, including contract information for qualified biological personnel, in case that is needed.

b. Revise the components of the revegetation seed mix specified in the landscape plan to comply with the mitigation plan specifications by adding the following species appropriate for Desert Tortoise forage: Bromus rubens (red brome), Erodium cicutatarium (redstem filaree), Plantago sp (plantain), Astragalus sp (milkvetch), and Janusia gracilis (janusia) (assembled from page 5 of the mitigation report).

c. Ensure the locations of all wildlife crossings, signage and other wildlife features are specified on each sheet of the plan where they occur, and that plan implementers are appropriately referred to the appropriate detail on the newly prepared wildlife sheet. Add "Wildlife Notes" section to plan sheets as needed to provide necessary detail about wildlife elements. This note should include a caution that only trained personnel shall handle Desert Tortoises encountered during construction activities, and shall direct the reader to the wildlife sheet for instructions on how to proceed.

In addition to the plan revisions, AmericaBuilt will provide information on how and when site personnel training will occur, per the recommendations provided in the documents references above, and will provide information on how they will insure that site monitoring is conducted per the mitigation plan recommendations.

Review of the revised tentative plat and landscape plan by City staff will involve close reading of the above referenced documents to insure all necessary details have been provided in the revised plans. AmericaBuilt is to go back to the above referenced documents to determine the exact details for mitigation efforts, which have been summarized in the text above.
