The following items must be revised or added to the site plan. Please include a response letter with the next submittal that states how all comments have been addressed.

Be advised this plan is being reviewed by a different plans reviewer.

RESUBMITTAL REQUIRED: SITE PLAN


1. it was requested to show the locations of downspouts and sidewalk scuppers on the site plan and to add a note, "All roof spouts will be routed under any adjacent sidewalk." In the response letter back it stated the notation has been added and the downspouts/scuppers have been shown. The notation was not added and the downspouts/scuppers were not added to the site or grading plan. If the comment was addressed and I over looked the notation and the locations of the downspout/scuppers, indicate via the response letter which sheet the information can be found. D.S. 2-08.3.1 & 4.1.E

2. Indicate if Fort Lowell Road is Public or Private. This was not addressed from the first review.

3. Fort Lowell Road is a MS&R with Future R.O.W. of 100 feet which intersects with Tucson Blvd., requiring a widening of 130 feet and tapering into 100 feet. It is acknowledged that a 60' and 60.5' dimension from street centerline is shown. However the full MS&R ROW dimension is 130', which would be a 65' half ROW. Indicate the correct dimensions and the tapering (intersection widening).

4. The existing and MS&R ROW dimensions must be distinguishable from one another. Label the existing ROW and MS&R ROW dimension accordingly. Revise the site plan and the future site plan. D.S. 2-02.2.1.A.18.

5. Dimension from the centerline of Tucson Blvd. to the property line. In regards to the above comment the distance must be clear where the intersection tapering begins. Refer to the MS&R ROW Map intersection widening diagram found on the following web site; http://www.tucsonaz.gov/planning/maps/city/msr.pdf

6. Indicate existing topographic contours at intervals not exceeding two (2) feet as pertinent and Bench Mark based on City of Tucson Datum, including City Field Book and page number. D.S. 2-02.2.1.A.23

This comment has not been addressed from the first review. Add contours or spot elevations to the site or grading plan. If the contours are shown on the grading plan add a note to the site plan indicating the vertical information can be found on the site plan.

7. A 5' sidewalk is indicated along Fort Lowell Road. All MS&R Arterial Roads must have a 6' sidewalk. Revise accordingly.

8. Indicate refuse container location, size and access thereto fully dimensioned. Demonstrate vehicle maneuverability fully dimensioned. Indicate a refuse enclosure detail as per D.S. 6-01.4.2

The above comment is from the first review. The response to this comment was, "The trash containers will be placed atop concrete slab located in the same area that they have always be accessible to by the City of Tucson Sanitation Department." THE solid waste area has not bee shown on the plan and is required to be shown on a site plan per DS 2-02.2.1.A.32. This review is a full code compliance review and is required to meet Development Standard 6-01.3. Solid waste proposals not meeting the commercial requirements of DS 6-01.3.0. must obtain a Development Standard Modification Request D.S.M.R., please contact Patricia Gehlen the CDRC Manager for further information.

9. This site is over an acre. Any construction site that has over an acre of disturbance is required to have Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP). It appears that most of the project site is going to affected by construction. Clearly indicate the area of disturbance.

10. Show the location of the wall opening discussed in the drainage statement, found in the hydrologic data sheet.

11. Be advised the retention area must meet chapter 4, Multiple Use Concepts and Aesthetic Design Guidelines found in the Retention/Detention Manual. A landscape plan was not submitted, verification of meeting the concepts and guidelines found in chapter 4, of the Retention/Detention Manual will take place once the landscape plan has been submitted.

Child Care in Residential and Office Zones Criteria.
A. Dispersal. A six hundred (600) foot separation between child care centers in residential zones is required. Child care centers that provide only before- and after-school programs at elementary and secondary school sites are not considered for the purposes of this separation. The separation distance is measured from property lines, except in the case of a child care center on a mixed use development site where the separation is measured from that portion of the site devoted to the child care use.
B. Licensing. If licensing is required by the State of Arizona for the use, proof of such licensure shall be provided prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy. (Ord. No. 9392, ยง1, 5/22/00)

D. Building Setback. The minimum setback from all property lines adjacent to R-3 or more restrictive zoning is twenty (20) feet unless the setback requirements of the zone are greater. Buildings may be located closer than twenty (20) feet to such property lines if there are no openings on the side of the building Adjacent to R-3 or more restrictive zoning, in which case the setbacks in the general provisions of the zone apply. If the building wall is parallel to the property line, only that side of the building facing the property line must have no openings; if the building is not parallel to the property line, there may be no openings within twenty (20) feet of the property line. For the purposes of this Section, "no openings" means all windows and doors are closed by fixed walls or nonoperable windows. Where openings are not allowed, an emergency exit door, which can only be opened from inside the building and has an alarm, is allowed.
(See Illustration 3.5.4.3.D.)
E. Recreational Areas. Minimum distance of outdoor recreational areas, including, but not limited to,
Swimming and wading pools, ball fields, and playground equipment, to any adjacent property in R-3 or

F. Number of Children. The maximum number of children cared for is as follows.
1. Thirty (30) children.
G. Site Size. The minimum required site size is as follows. In no case will a site larger than ten (10) acres be required.

The parking spaces located in the future right of way cannot be used towards compliance for number of required parking spaces. Provide a separate site plan showing how the site will meet parking requirements if at such time the road is widened or revise this site plan to conform to the LUC. See LUC Sec. 2.8.3.5.C, &.3. A MS&R recorded covenant will be required if a future site plan is to be used.

C. Permitted Use of MS&R Right-of-Way Area. The area between the MS&R right-of-way lines is also referred to as the MS&R right-of-way area, whether publicly or privately owned. It may be used in addition to roadway improvements in conjunction with and accessory to development on abutting properties, as follows.
3. That, if the improvement is for off-street parking, such parking must be in addition to the amount required for the existing use(s), and the area must be fully improved as required for any parking area. The screening and landscaping required by Sec. 3.7.0, Landscaping and Screening Regulations, for vehicular use areas, street landscape borders, and Gateway Routes may be located temporarily in the MS&R right-of-way area until such time as this area is used for right-of-way purposes. Upon elimination of the parking area, the required screening and landscaping, as specified on the site plan required by Sec. 2.8.3.5.F, will be moved to the location specified on the site plan at no cost to the City.
