Tentative Plat S08-037 (1st Review) TRANSMITTAL DATE: April 18, 2008 DUE DATE: April 18, 2008 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 March 20, 3009. 2. D.S. 2-03.2.2.B.1 Place the S08-037 subdivision case number in the lower right corner of the plat next to the title block. 3. D.S. 2-03.2.2.B.5 Under General Note 6 change the use to "FAMILY DWELLING, RCP 8 & 9, SUBJECT TO LUC SEC. 3.6.1". 4. D.S. 2-03.2.2.B.7 Add a general note to the plan stating "THIS PLAT IS DESIGNED TO MEET THE OVERLAY ZONE CRITERIA: LUC, SEC 2.8.3 MAJOR STREETS AND ROUTES (MS&R) SETBACK ZONE. 5. D.S. 2-03.2.2.D.1.b The vehicle circulation, PAAL's, shown on the plan are required to be streets. This said revise General Notes 14 & 15 to reflect the miles of public or private streets. 6. D.S. 2-03.2.4.G Per LUC Section 3.6.1.4.F.3 the provided parking area access lanes (PAAL's) are required to be streets. The provided PAAL sections do not meet the requirements for a street section, see D.S. 3-01. A variance or Development Standards Modification Request (DSMR) may be required. 7. D.S. 2-03.2.4.G Per LUC Table 3.3.7.I the minimum aisle width for access to ninety (90) degree parking is twenty-four (24) feet. This said the proposed eighteen (18) foot PAAL along the south end of both developments does not meet the twenty-four (24) foot requirement. 8. D.S. 2-03.2.4.G A barrier-free access route, sidewalk is required on both sides of the proposed streets. 9. D.S. 2-03.2.4.G Fully dimension the proposed visitors parking. 10. D.S. 2-03.2.4.J If applicable show all proposed easements (utility, sewer, drainage, access, etc.) dimension and label as to their purposes and whether they will be public or private. 11. D.S. 2-03.2.4.M Provide a typical lot setback detail. Based on the number of lots in each area of the subdivision it does not appear that you meet the ADT of 140 or less. This said the proposed interior street setbacks listed are not correct. Also if the ADT of 140 or less is allowed lots 4 & 30 do not appear to meet the setback requirements. 12. As this proposed RCP is two separate non-contiguous developments, less than 5 acres each the following applies. Per LUC Section 3.6.1.2.C RCPs for sites that are five (5) acres or less shall be reviewed and approved through the Zoning Examiner Full Notice Procedure, Development Compliance Code, Sec. 23A-50 and 23A-53. The Zoning Examiner Full Notice Procedure must be completed and approved prior to approval of this tentative plat. 13. LUC 3.6.1.4.A.4 Designate the specific lots that will provide the required barrier-free accessibility for the elderly and physically disabled. 14. LUC 3.6.1.5 Provide the required documentation that addresses the requirements of LUC 3.6.1.5 Management of Common Properties. 15.

A discussion with Patricia Gehlen of the Department of Development Services, determined the following information; tentative plat S08-037 requires a special exception because it is proposed as an RCP and consist of two parcels which are not adjoined or abut each other, and each parcel is less than five acres in size. Please review submittal requirements on RCP projects of less than five acres in size and include this information at the time of the special exception process. In addition DUPD staff is requiring the tentative plat to be revised to include the following requirements: 1.a, As an RCP project, the proposed tentative plat shall comply with the South Pantano Area Plan policy requirements. This includes the requirements active and passive recreational amenities. However, based on the small size of each parcel and the fact that a small city park is located at mid-block, east on Stella Road, staff will consider on-site “passive” recreational amenities only on each parcel. Staff’s support will depend on the applicant’s proposal as to where and what amenities will be located at each parcel. As an example, amenities may include but not limited to pedestrian trails/paths, trees, benches, table(s), trash container(s), tot lot, turf area etc, and other passive amenities within common areas. These amenities shall be centrally located with high visibility in mind (Safe by Design Criteria). 1.b To reduce the heat island effect along pedestrian paths (sidewalks), please include a native and thornless canopy tree, within the front yard of every other lot, on both sides of every street within the subdivision. Trees will be located up toward the front property line of the lot so as to create a shady corridor along these streets when trees mature. |

The preliminary point where TEP will provide possible feeds are from Block 1 –Transformer EST-52 & Poles 129 & 258; Block 2 – Poles 240 and 241. This is a very tight subdivision with small lots. Hypothetical equipment placement on this tentative plat have been placed. Due to lot size and service size, the equipment could be moved from the hypothetical locations. When the customer requests a layout on the approved tentative plat, our Designer will place permanent facilities for said project. All additional costs will be paid by the developer. The Designer will need at least 6 to 8 weeks for the design and layout of this subdivision. 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 fifteen (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.

The Drainage Report was reviewed for Tentative Plat purposes only. The Tentative Plat is not approved at this time. The following items need to be addressed: TENTATIVE PLAT: 1) DS Sec.2-03.2.2.B.1: The correct Tentative Plat number (S08-037) may be added to the lower right hand corner of the plans where indicated by "#." 2) DS Sec.2-03.2.2.B.7: Provide a General Note on the Tentative Plat that references all special overlay zones that are applicable to this plat, specifically state that the plat is designed to meet the overlay zone criteria for Major Streets and Routes (MS&R) Setback Zone, LUC Sec.2.8.3. 3) DS Sec.2-03.2.2.D.b: Revise the Tentative Plat and General Notes #14 and 15 to show the correct miles of either private or public streets that is required for this development. Parking Area Access Lanes (PAALs) are not acceptable in residential subdivisions. All vehicle access must be provided by either a public or a private street, refer to DS Sec.3-01 for street development criteria. 4) DS Sec.2-03.2.3.A: Revise the Tentative Plat to show all benchmark locations, proposed location of and method of tie to the permanent survey monuments or nearest section corner, specifically show the survey monument for the Basis of Bearing for the west side at the intersection of Wilmot and Stella. 5) DS Sec.2-03.2.3.C: Revise the Tentative Plat to reflect all existing easements with recordation information, location, widths, and purpose. Specifically Item #6 on Schedule B of the Title Report could not be located on the plans, either clarify the location or add to the Tentative Plat. 6) DS Sec.2-03.2.3.E: Revise the Tentative Plat to assure that all of the existing utilities are shown. Clearly show and label existing water lines, gas lines, electric lines, telephone lines/poles, and existing/proposed sewer lines. For sanitary sewers include the pipe diameter, the invert and rim elevation for all manholes and clean outs. 7) DS Sec.2-03.2.3.G: Revise the Tentative Plat to show all existing storm drainage facilities that are located adjacent to both subject parcels, provide all referenced improvement plan numbers along with the location of all storm drains, grates, culverts, etc. 8) DS Sec.2-03.2.4.C: Revise the Tentative Plat and the Title Block to remove the PAAL description from Common Area "A", the common area must reflect either private or public streets that are required for this project. 9) DS Sec.2-03.2.4.C: Revise the Tentative Plat to clearly enclose with a solid line each Common Area, Private Street, etc that will have separate restrictions or a separate homeowners' association. Common Area "C" must be clear on the Tentative Plat for the Retention Basins and the private streets must be added in place of the proposed PAALs. Verify that CC&R's are submitted and that they provide for maintenance responsibility for all common areas and required private streets. 10) DS Sec.2-03.2.4.E: Revise the Tentative Plat to verify if the project is to be phased. Show phase lines on the drawing, if applicable (since this project consists of 2 non-contiguous parcels it is unclear if they will both be developed at the same time or in phases, clarify). 11) DS Sec.2-03.2.4.F: Revise the Tentative Plat so that it is designed in accordance with Street Development Standard 3-01.0. The following items need to be revised or added to the proposed Tentative Plat: a) Label the required 25-foot radii at the access points along both MS&R Roadways. The curbs should be constructed at the edge of pavement, which must also be depicted on the site plan. Curb returns must be constructed entirely within the subject parcel. Refer to DS Sec.3-01.3.2.C and the Transportation Access Management Guidelines for street development standards. For further information contact the Tucson Department of Transportation, Jose Ortiz, P.E. at 837-6730. b) Revise the Tentative Plat to show the correct Sight Visibility triangles (SVT), with dimensions for the access points off of Wilmot Road (Arterial) and Stella Avenue (Collector) per DS Sec.3-01.5.0. Revise the landscape plan to reflect the sight visibility triangles shown on the Tentative Plat. 12) DS Sec.2-03.2.4.F: Revise the Tentative Plat to show either public or private roadway design criteria. Per LUC Sec.3.6.1.4.F.3 the PAALs are required to be either a public or private street, revise. The provided PAAL sections do not meet the requirements for a street section; refer to DS Sec.3-01 for all criteria and minimum requirements for the required street sections. A variance or Development Standards Modification Request (DSMR) may be required. 13) DS Sec.2-03.2.4.J: Clarify the proposed 7.5-foot Greencourt easement that is shown on the Tentative Plat. Provide recordation information or state easement is to be dedicated by Final Plat. Is this easement proposed to address pedestrian circulation that is required along all frontages of the required streets, clarify? 14) DS Sec.2-03.2.4.J: Provide easements for all utilities with recordation information or provide the description for each utility in respective Common Areas, verify that the CCRs match the Common Area descriptions. Easements are to be dimensioned and labeled as to whether they are public or private. 15) DS Sec.2-03.2.4.K: Either provide separately, or show a conceptual grading plan on the Tentative Plat, with the resubmittal of the Tentative Plat and Drainage Report. The conceptual grading plan is required on this project due to the proposed retention basin and required roadway sections. A Geotechnical Report is required to discuss the suitability of the project site. The soils report needs to discuss suitability and feasibility of the project. Besides description of existing soil constraints for the site, structural design recommendations, pavement design section, and other typical geotechnical data is needed. The soils report shall provide identification / assessment of any potentially hazardous geotechnical areas, provide proposed recommendations for setbacks from building to drainage areas include minimum distance from foundations to retention basin, and provide infiltration test results. The geotechnical report shall specifically address all criteria listed in this section. See last sentence of this section for items 6 (c) & (d) regarding hydro-collapsing soils and 30-foot test boring for basin design. Recommendations need to be incorporated into the conceptual grading plan, Tentative Plat, and Drainage Report. 16) DS Sec.2-03.2.4.L: Revise the Tentative Plat, in conjunction with the submitted Drainage Report, to reflect the following information. For additional information regarding drainage standards, see the City of Tucson Standards Manual for Drainage Design and Floodplain Management. a) Provide spot elevations at intervals along both proposed basin bottoms to show slope percentage. The bottom of basin slope must be 0.5% or greater to prevent accumulation of standing water and mosquito infestation. Both basins must provide a low flow bleeder pipe to prevent standing water per Division directive. b) Revise the proposed retention basin on the Tentative Plat and drainage exhibit to meet the requirements within DS Sec.10-01.4.3.1. All basins must be designed with curvilinear shapes or with a minimum 10-foot radius curves at all 90 degree bends. c) Provide proposed spot elevations at different points on each lot for reference to future grading and site drainage. d) Revise the Tentative Plat and Hydrology Report to show that the 10-year flow from the basin outlet is contained under all proposed sidewalks. Provide clear details in plan view for both basin inlets, outlets, erosion protection and for any proposed scuppers under the pedestrian circulation. 17) DS Sec.11-01.9: Revise the Tentative Plat to provide the required 2-feet setback from all property boundaries to the proposed limits of grading, fill slopes, retention basin, block wall and associated erosion protection. The plan view on the Tentative Plat shows that the limits of grading encroach within the required 2-feet setback. Provide sufficient room to allow for the 2-feet setback from property lines to top of fill slopes and associated erosion protection. 18) Review and approval from TDOT Permits and Codes for all improvements within the public right-of-way will be required. A right-of-way use permit application will be required prior to construction. Refer to the following links for TDOT Forms and applications: a) http://www.tucsonaz.gov/dsd/Forms_Fees___Maps/Applications/applications.html / b) http://www.dot.ci.tucson.az.us/engineering/pia.php c) Or contact Thad Harvison at 837-6592 for all additional questions regarding r-o-w. DRAINAGE REPORT: 19) DS Sec.10-01.4.3.1: The proposed basins do not satisfy the requirements for multi-use basin design. Provide natural looking design for the basins per DS Sec 10-01.1.1.2, to show that the proposed design provides a detention/retention facility that has multi-use facilities and is visually appealing. All basins must be designed with curvilinear shapes or with a minimum 10-foot radius curves at all 90 degree bends. 20) DS Sec.10-02.11.4.4.2: Revise Drainage Report to provide calculations for riprap sizing (D50) and provide filter fabric specifications for all proposed details that are sown on the developed exhibit, Figure 2. Revise the cross sections and general details to provide all spot elevations, low flow bleeder pipes, riprap specifications along with method of placement, filter fabric specification, etc. for all proposed drainage improvements. 21) Verify that the recommendations in the required geotechnical report have been addressed in the Drainage Report, basin design and basin location. GEOTECHICAL REPORT: 22) DS Sec.10-01.III.3.5.1.3.a, 10-02.14.2.6: Provide a Geotechnical Report Evaluation that addresses the following: a) Soils report should provide conformance with DS Sec.10-02.14.2.6 regarding 30-foot boring for basin, and provide a discussion of the potential for hydro-collapsible soils and any recommendation for setbacks from the buildings to both proposed retention basins. b) The soils report shall provide identification / assessment of any potentially hazardous geotechnical areas, and state any geotechnical recommendations and whether there are special provisions for the soil preparation for this development. c) Provide slope stability recommendations for any proposed constructed slopes. d) Provide pavement and asphalt recommendations for the required streets. e) Provide percolation rates for retention basin for 5-year threshold retention. GRADING PLAN: 23) DS Sec.11-01.2.1: For future references a grading permit application will be required for this project. A grading permit may not be issued prior to Tentative Plat approval. 24) Please ensure the grading plan is consistent with the Tentative Plat, Drainage Report, and Geotechnical Report. Grading standards may be accessed at http://www.ci.tucson.az.us/dsd/DevStandsTOC.pdf. 25) Arizona Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (AZPDES) requirements are applicable to this project.
