Estolano 791-4505 DATE: 07/17/06 URBAN PLANNING AND DESIGN S06-148 Monte Vista Townhomes July 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 Grant-Alvernon 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 General Plan, and the Design Guidelines Manual encourages the creation of a cooling microclimates along pedestrian paths that are internal to the subdivision. The tentative plat shows Common Area B running along the eastern portion of the site to be concrete. The landscape shows this common area as having eight-15 gallon Chilean Mesquite trees. Please revise the tentative plat to jibe with the landscape plan. Per DS 2-10.3.2.D, the lots that are less than 4,000 square feet must submit the following: Floor plans or drawings of the footprint of each unit, showing exterior dimensions. Be certain that locations of second floors (if applicable), front entrances, and motor vehicle parking spaces are noted. These can be preliminary plans. To aide in the review it is helpful to provide building footprints drawn at the same scale as the tentative plat to check which models fit on which lots. Building elevations of all proposed units with height dimensions. A list of what model homes fit which lots. Unless a lot is planned for another use, each lot will be designed so that at least one of the model units fits on the lot in compliance with Code requirements. Any proposed masonry screen wall around the perimeter of the subdivision, or within the development shall be constructed of, or painted with, graffiti-resistant materials. These screen walls shall incorporate one of the following decorative materials: tile, stone, brick, textured brick/block, a coarse-textured material such as stucco or plaster, or a combination of the above materials. Please provide a detail of all proposed walls in the development and indicate the materials that will be used. 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. Please provide a bench to be located at the southeasternmost corner and one at the northeasternmost corner of Common Area B. Benches are to be located adjacent to proposed trees. |

| 08/02/2006 | JCLARK3 | ENV SVCS | REVIEW | Denied | * No known landfill with in 1000 feet of this development. * Enclosure does not nave any wall protection. Enclosure requires 10' clear between the wall protection. * Enclosure at this positioning requires that the dumpster be on casters to be hand pushed to an area for service. Truck would have to remain in the street or it would have to back out into the street after servicing the dumpster. In both cases it presents safety concerns. Recommend that the enclosure be positioned at a 45 degree angle so that the dumpster can be serviced directly with a front loading service truck. |

| 08/21/2006 | KAROL ARAGONEZ | ZONING | REVIEW | Denied | CDRC TRANSMITTAL TO: Development Services Department Plans Coordination Office FROM: Karol Aragonez Planner PROJECT: S06-148 Monte Vista Townhomes (RCP) Tentative Plat TRANSMITTAL DATE: June 29, 2006 DUE DATE: July 28, 2006 COMMENTS: Please resubmit revised drawings along a response letter, which states how all Zoning Review Section comments regarding the Land Use Code and Development Standards were addressed. 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 June 28, 2007. 2. Please correct the maximum density calculation. RCP-7 maximum density is 44, which for this project equal 21 units per the residential cluster project density matrix. LUC 3.2.3.1.F 3. Please include in the site data the maximum allowable square footage of lot coverage for this project (14,697.14 sq. ft.) and that minimum site area is N/A. Please list total building & vehicular use area as proposed lot coverage. LUC 3.2.3.1.F & DS 2-10.3.1.C 4. Per LUC Sec. 3.6.1.4.D.2.c interior lot lines may utilize a zero (0) setback when at least three hundred (300) square feet of outdoor space is provided on that lot and is designed as an extension of the indoor space with access from that space. This space cannot be obstructed by any overhang less than seven (7) feet above design grade and at least one hundred (100) square feet is a minimum of ten (10) feet in width in any direction. Please provide a note to verify these requirements on the tentative plat as listed in this LUC Section. LUC 3.6.1.4.D.2.c 5. Please provide parking calculations for the proposed subdivision on the tentative plat. Two (2) motor vehicle parking spaces per dwelling unit is required, plus one (1) space per unit for visitor parking. LUC 3.3.4 & DS 3-05.2.4.A.6 6. Visitor parking spaces should be provided within one hundred fifty (150) feet of the front property lines of each residential unit. Spaces shown would not meet these criteria for lot 1. Please provide a design to meet this requirement. DS 3-05.2.4.A.1 7. The typical parking detail provided on sheet 2 of 3 does not match the dimensions provided on the plan view. Plan view indicates spaces are eight one-half (8 ½) feet in width by eighteen (18) feet in length, while the detail shows a space that is nine (9) feet by twenty (20) typical. When looking at PAAL Section "C" on sheet 3 of 3 the parking space is shown being eighteen and one-half (18 ½') feet in length. Per LUC code minimum size is eight one-half (8 ½) feet in width by eighteen (18) feet in length. If the spaces are increased to twenty (20) feet or eighteen and one-half (18 ½'), the PAAL will become substandard by being less than twenty-four (24) feet in width. Please correct. LUC 3.3.7.2.A 8. Parallel parking spaces shown on the plan do not meet the minimum size requirement. The length of a parallel parking space is twenty-three (23) feet in length and eight (8) feet in width. The space's length can be reduced to eighteen (18) feet if the space is located immediately adjacent to an access drive, alley, or street intersection and the space is designed to provide maneuvering area on at least one (1) end. In addition on street parking must be approved by the Traffic Engineer. Please correct and provide proof of Traffics approval of the on-street parking. DS 3-05.2.1.B.2 9. Please provide a dimension from the proposed building edge of lot 7 to the proposed curb to assure a five (5) foot minimum is provided for a pedestrian refuge. DS 3-05.2.2.B.1 10. Please dimension the backup spur provided at the end of the PAAL. The spur must be a minimum of three (3) feet in depth, and will have a three (3) foot radii. DS 3-05.4.D 11. Please be aware that all maneuvering of motor vehicles including environmental services trash pick-up must be performed on site without encroaching into required parking spaces. Please demonstrate that this can be achieved for trash and recycling pick-up and verify with Engineering. 12. The proposed project is less than four (4) acres and thus must be architecturally compatible with or complementary to, the design characteristics of those existing single-family detached or attached structures along the same block frontage and the block frontage across the street. Architectural compatibility will also be in compliance with design criteria in applicable adopted neighborhood and areas plans, which can be verified by the Department of Urban Planning and Design. This determination will be made by the applicant supplying photos of the surrounding area and proposed color elevations including dimensions for review. LUC 3.6.1.4.A.3 & DS 2-10.3.2.B&C 13. Barrier-free accessibility for the elderly and physically disabled shall be provided to twenty-five (25) percent of the units (2 units) and all common use areas, including parking areas, within the project. Please provide a detail demonstrating this compliance. LUC 3.6.1.4.A.5 14. All mechanical equipment shall be screened from adjacent streets exterior to the project and from adjacent existing residential development. Screening shall be architecturally integrated with the overall design of the RCP. Please provide a detail and note demonstrating compliance. LUC 3.6.1.4.A.9 15. Since proposed lots are less than four thousand (4000) sq. ft. additional information to verify compliance with RCP requirements will be needed. Footprints of each building including porches and covered patios are to be provided separately or drawn on the tentative plat to assure that all units fit. Building elevations should also be supplied with height dimensions. Please review Development Standard (DS) 2-10.3.2.D for complete list of requirements. DS 2-10.3.2.D 16.
