COMMENTS: Please resubmit revised drawings along with redlines and a response letter, which states how all Zoning Review Section comments regarding the Land Use Code and Development Standards were addressed.

1. Per DS 2-02.2.1.6 Provide all existing and proposed buildings and structures, including location, size,
height, overhangs, canopies, and use.

The site plan indicates a future security office. This project is under LUC Sec. 2.5.4.2.H.1 Commercial Storage "31", subject to: 3.5.10.1. Sec. 3.5.10.1.B states that outdoor storage, when permitted, shall not be located in the street perimeter yard. If there is to be no building at this time then the entire site becomes street perimeter yard and no storage is allowed for the entire site. If the indicated security office is to become part of this project at this time then storage would not be allowed anywhere from the front of the structure to the front property line across the entire lot parallel to the street.


2. Per DS 2-02.2.1.7 Dimensions are missing for the following:
1. The required building setbacks as per LUC Sec3.2.6.5. The required setback is 21' or the height to the structure from back of future curb.
2. Distance from future right of way line to future curb,
3. Distance from center line of Miracle Mile to future right of way line.
4. The width of landscape border.

3. Per DS 2-02.2.1.8 The loading space indicated behind the parking spaces near the "future" office cannot be located in such a way as to block the parking spaces.

4. Per DS 2-02.2.1.9 Provide a detail of bicycle parking rack as well as a dimensioned layout for access to bicycle rack.

5. Per DS 2-02.2.1.11 The width of the PAAL behind the parking spaces located east of the office does not meet LUC Sec. 3.3.7.2. The minimum width of a PAAL is 24' in back of parking spaces which are 90 degrees to the PAAL.

6. Per LUC Sec. 3.3.7.3 The indicated storage areas are considered vehicular use areas and must be surfaced with asphalt or concrete.

7. Per DS 3-05.2.3.C.1 The vehicular use areas along the west, south and a portion of the north side of the property require post barricades or wheel stop curbing to prevent vehicles from driving on unimproved portions of the site.

8. Per DS 2-02.2.1.12 Clearly indicate the accessible pedestrian circulation path for this site. Indicate location of required handicap ramps, cross walks and sidewalks from the right of way to any doors in the "future" office. See DS 2-08 for pedestrian circulation requirements.

Access ramps at crosswalks connecting to sidewalks must be provided. In addition Truncated Dome (early warning systems) must be added to all access ramps where transitioning from the pedestrian area to the vehicular use area or at HC access aisles transitioning to the sidewalk area.


9. Per DS 2-02.2.1.13 If applicable, indicate the location, size, type and height of existing or proposed freestanding signage including billboards.

10. Per DS 2-02.2.1.25 If applicable, indicate the existing and proposed lighting layout and type.

13. Clearly indicate pedestrian circulation from the ROW to the "future" trailer. DS 2-08., 3-05.

14. Per the drainage report from JE Fuller/Hydrology & Geomorphology, Inc the project site is effected by City of Tucson regulatory flow (100-year flow). Show the location and label appropriately on the plan the offsite to onsite 100-yr flow that is provided in the drainage report.

15. A floodplain use permit is required for this project. Submit a floodplain use permit application at the time of the second submittal. The floodplain use permit application (blue card) is handed out at the Engineering Counter at Development Services Department.

16. Show the location of the water surface elevation (WSE) of the 100-yr peak flow. Label appropriately and include the line weight in the legend. Give the datum used for the elevation.

17. Add a note to the plan stating this development is affected by the City of Tucson Floodplain Regulations. Include the WSE, the recommended finish floor elevation (FFE) and the datum in the note.

18. Indicate on the future structure the recommended FFE. Please note if the structure is a trailer rather than an "FFE" the lowest structural member is required to be one foot above the WSE.

19. Please note a condition of this permit contains a requirement that the applicant, or the applicant's authorized representative, complete a FEMA Elevation Certificate and is returned to DSD Engineering prior to approval of special inspection.

20. Drainage report states on page 3 that a retention basin is located on the southwest corner of the site. A retention basin is not indicated on the plan. A large water harvesting area is shown on the plan. Is the intent to use the water harvesting area as the retention basin? Revise the site plan to show the required retention basin. Label appropriately. Provide a cross-section of the basin in reference to the road. Show the elevation of the top and bottom of the basin and give the water surface elevation of the basin. SMDDFM 2.3.1.6

21. Show on the plan in an appropriate location on the site plan the volume of the retention basin indicated in the drainage report. SMDDFM 2.3.1.6.A.

22. Show the ponding limits for the retention basin. Use a specific line weight and include in the legend. SMDDFM 2.3.1.6.A.4.e.

23. Show the location of the 15' vehicular access ramp that is indicated in the drainage report on page 3. SMDDFM 2.3.1.6.A.4.b.

DRAINAGE REPORT COMMENTS

1. In the table estimating the retention volume, the shown coefficient, 0.586 for the developed condition is low. It appears the used coefficient is for the 2-year storm event. This project must meet the 5-yr threshold requirements, which has a different coefficient. In addition the Zoning section comments, comment 6, is requesting the material storage areas must be surfaced with asphalt or concrete. Thus, the project will have more impervious surface than what is currently proposed. Because of this, the developed coefficient used to estimate the retention volume is again to low. Revise the retention volume to include the correct coefficient for developed conditions.

2. Include an updated site plan with the second submittal, showing the requested changes per the review comments.
