| 12/17/2003 | Peter McLaughlin | ZONING | REVIEW | Denied | SITE PLAN TRANSMITTAL TO: Poster Frost 317 N. Court Ave. Tucson, AZ 85706 (520) 882-6310 FROM: Peter McLaughlin Senior Planner Development Services Department FOR: Patricia Gehlen Principal Planner Development Services Dept. PROJECT: T02CM05519 Arts For All, Inc. Expansion 2520 N. Oracle Road Site Plan Review (1st review) TRANSMITTAL: December 19, 2003 COMMENTS: Please attach a response letter with the next submittal, which states how all Zoning Review Section comments regarding the Land Use Code and Development Standards were addressed. 1. This project was reviewed as a greater than 25% expansion. Full code compliance is required. DS 2-02 2. Provide a percent building area expansion calculation based on the square footage of the addition divided by the square footage of existing gross floor area (2,780 sq. ft. proposed addition ¸ 6,500 sq. ft. existing = 42.7 percent expansion). DS 2-02.2.2.A.6 3. Provide the proposed height of the building addition above finished grade elevation. Required MS&R building setbacks cannot be determined until the proposed building height is specified. DS 2-02.2.1.A.6 LUC 3.2.6.5 4. Dimension all MS&R street monument lines, including existing and future curbs and sidewalks. Dimension arrows are shown on the drawing but the distance figures are scaled too small to read. DS 2-02.2.1.A.21 5. Dimension the MS&R building setback from back of future curb location along Oracle Rd. Again, the dimension arrows are shown on the drawing but the distance figures are scaled too small to read. DS 2-02.2.1.A.7 LUC 3.2.6.5 6. Dimension the width of the entrance drive from Oracle Road at its narrowest point. It appears to be less than the required width of 24 feet. DS 2-02.2.1.A.11 7. Add existing sight visibility triangles along Oracle Road and add the near-side future sight visibility triangles to both entrance drives. Dimension all site visibility triangles. DS 2-02.2.1.A.10 8. If any easements exist or are proposed show their location on the site plan along with their dimensioned width, their purpose and the recordation information (docket and page). DS 2-02.2.1.A.20 9. Pedestrian circulation is required to connect directly between the building and the right of way along Alturas Street. Sidewalks and crosswalks must also provide connections to other areas of the site including parking areas and solid waste containers. Revise plan to show continuous pedestrian sidewalk and crosswalks and dimension the width of all sidewalks and pedestrian refuge areas. DS 3-05.2.2.B.1 DS 2-08.4.1.A DS 2-02.2.1.A.12 10. The keynote for the class 1 bicycle parking located inside the building on the site plan drawing has a circular shape rather than the hexagonal keynote shape used elsewhere on the drawing. Revise this keynote indicator to be consistent. Also, revise bicycle parking calc to be based on 8% of the number of vehicle spaces provided, not the number required. LUC 3.3.3.5 11. Comment 11 not used. 12. Indicate the required zoning setbacks in the site plan data notes. The required MS&R street perimeter yard building setback along Oracle Road is the greater of 21 feet or height of exterior structure wall measured from the back of future curb location. The required building setback to adjacent C-2 and O-3 zoned properties to the north, south and east is zero (0) feet. LUC 3.2.6.5 LUC 3.2.6.4 13. Add the total vehicle parking spaces provided to the parking calculation. Add dimensions for the five parking spaces (with vehicles parked facing north). Remove the easternmost of these five parking spaces as it does not meet code and may not be used to meet parking requirements because vehicles cannot easily maneuver into and out of it. Add a parking count number to these four spaces. Also the southernmost vehicle parking space along the east lot line does not meet the minimum width requirement of 8-½ feet and may not be counted toward required parking. The parking count number along the eastern row of spaces reads "5" but only two spaces that meet code are provided in this row. Revise parking calculation accordingly. A Board of Adjustment variance will be required if required parking is not met. If a variance is applied for and approved, please list as a general note the following: variance case number; date of approval, and conditions imposed if any. In addition, provide a copy of the variance approval document to the Zoning Review Section upon resubmittal. DS 2-02.2.2.A.4 LUC 3.3.7.2 14. The area to the south of the building indicates there are three parking spaces provided here. Dimension these spaces to demonstrate that they meet minimum code requirements for parallel parking spaces (8' wide by 23 feet long). DS 2-02.2.1.A.8 DS 3-05.2.1.B.2 15. Add the lot area and provide a floor area ratio (FAR) calculation to the plan. The proposed FAR is calculated as the building gross floor area ÷ site area. DS 2-02.2.2.A.1 DS 2-02.2.2.A.3 LUC 3.2.11 16. Add the maximum slope of the handicap access aisle and ramps to the h/c parking detail. Revise the fine amount on the sign detail to read "$500". ANS/IBC 17. Indicate the location of any proposed freestanding lighting on the site plan. DS 2-02.2.1.A.25 18. Label the boxes near the north property line as to their purpose. Also, label the box along the south property line (mostly located on the adjacent property, but extending over onto subject property). Note: buildings may not cross over lot lines. DS 2-02.2.1.A.6 19. Provide a loading zone calculation stating that one 12' × 35' loading is required. There is no loading zone indicated on the site plan. If the area with the gates and six pillars located to the east of the existing building is a loading zone, label it, dimension it and demonstrate maneuverability on the drawing. If no loading zone is to be provided, a Board of Adjustment variance application must be approved. If a variance is applied for and approved, please list as a general note the following: variance case number; date of approval, and conditions imposed if any. In addition, provide a copy of the variance approval document to the Zoning Review Section upon resubmittal. DS 2-02.2.2.A.5 DS 2-05.2.2.B.6 20. Provide the height and the dimensions of the portable storage container, and dimension the solid waste containers and detail any screening/enclosure on the site plan. DS 2-02.2.1.A.6 21. Keynote 4 indicates a monument sign but it is not shown on the drawing. Show the location, size and height of any proposed freestanding signage. Also, indicate if any billboards exist on the site. DS 2-02.2.1.A.13 If you have any questions about this transmittal, please call Peter McLaughlin, (520) 791-5608. |

| 12/30/2003 | Joseph Linville | LANDSCAPE | REVIEW | Denied | 1) If the expansion is twenty-five (25) percent or more, the MS&R provisions apply to the proposed expansion and to any parking and landscaping requirements which apply to the overall development per LUC 2.8.3.2.C.2. Therefore the following section applies: An approved site plan is required indicating how the project will comply with LUC requirements when the MS&R right-of-way can no longer be used as part of the site. Such plan is to be an exhibit to an executed covenant for recordation stating the responsibility of the property owner, successor, or assignee as to the removal of improvements and compliance with the LUC at no cost to the City. LUC 2.8.3.5.F The landscaping required per previous zoning approvals and any landscaping required as a result of the expansion(s) is required to be shown on a site plan (including the landscape plan) when the MS&R right of way can longer be used to meet LUC requirememnts. 2) Submit a copy of the last site/landscape plan approved for zoning compliance. This is required to verify landscape requirements for portions of the site outside of the expansion area. 3) Submit a native plant preservation plan or application for exception. LUC 3.8 |
