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 review is for an addition to City of Tucson Fire Station Number 12. This site is in the SR zone. The Development Designator is Protective Service "6" and is subject to LUC Section 3.5.3.2 (LUC Section 2.2.4.2.C.3). Please correct this information in "Project Data" on Sheet A1.0. Also follow the Development Designator with the phrase "subject to Sec 3.5.3.2."

2. The Perimeter Yard Indicator is FF (LUC Section 3.2.3.2.A). The setback requirement is four times the height of the exterior building wall facing each back and side property line (LUC Section 3.2.6.4). The wall height is measured from design grade to the highest point of that wall. Please delineate, identify and dimension these setbacks on the site plan. Please remove the incorrect setbacks on the site plan. Please provide dimensioned elevation drawings. Also correct the Perimeter Yard Indicator under "Project Data" and revise the required setbacks (DS 2-02.2.1.A.6 & .7).

3. The required front setback in the greater of twenty-one or the height of the exterior building wall facing Harrison Road measured from the back of the future curb (LUC Section 3.2.6.5 and DS 2-02.2.1.A.6 & .7). Please revise the required setback information under "Project Data" and on the site plan.

4. Please provide dimensions of the building on the site plan and also provide a copy of dimensioned floor plans (DS 2-02.1.A.6).

5. The required number of parking spaces is one space for every two hundred fifty (250) square feet of gross floor area (GFA). The requirement should be seventeen parking spaces (LUC Section 3.3.4). Please revise the calculations under project data for consistency with the LUC. Also provide dimensioned parking space details or typicals for both standard and handicapped accessible parking spaces (DS 2-02.2.1.A.8 and DS 2-02.2.2.A.4). Also state the number of parking spaces provided. (Please see comment #15.)

6. The required bicycle parking is eight percent (8%) of the total number of parking spaces provided with fifty percent (50%) class 1 and fifty percent (50%) class 2 (LUC Section 3.3.4). The minimum number of bicycle parking spaces is two (2) (LUC Section 3.3.3.5). If there are less than fifty (50) motor vehicle parking spaces provided than two (2) class 2 bicycle parking spaces may be provided for the required bicycle parking (LUC Section 3.3.7.8.A and DS 2-02.2.2.A.4). Therefore the minimum number of bicycle parking spaces is two (2) class 2 spaces. Please provide the required number of bicycle parking spaces and the number of bicycle parking spaces provided following the vehicle information under "Project Data." Also state the number of spaces provided. (Please see comment #15.)

7. Please provide the location, with dimensions, of the bicycle parking to be provided on the site plan. Provide a fully dimensioned layout. This is often best done as a detail. Include the materials for lighting, paving, security and directional signage. Also identify the specific type of bicycle rack and the number of bicycles it supports (DS 2-02.2.1.A.9 and DS 2-09).

8. Please provide the sight visibility triangles (SVTs) for both the existing and future right-of-ways (ROWs) (DS 2-02.2.1.A.10). (Please see comment #11. Also see comments from Engineering.)

9. Please dimension all egress and ingress locations and width of the driveways. Also dimension all parking area access lanes (PAALs) on the site plan (DS 2-02.2.1.A.11). Minimum width for all two-way PAALs and driveways is twenty-four feet (24') (LUC Section 3.3.7.2 and DS 3-05.2.1.C.1).

10. Please identify the location, type, size and height of all existing and proposed signage on the site. Also identify the location of any billboards on or adjacent to the site (DS 2-02.2.1.A.13).

11. The existing ROW and the future ROW must be correctly dimensioned on the site plan for Harrison Road. The future ROW is one hundred twenty feet (120'). Therefore the half ROW is sixty feet (60'). There are several lines and dimensions that are identified as the future ROW and none of them appear to be correct (LUC Section 2.8.3). The existing ROW information can be obtained from Maps and Records on the third floor of the Development Services building at 201 North Stone. Please revise the plans for accuracy and demonstrate compliance (DS 2-02.2.1.A.19).

12. Please graphically depict all easements of record on the site plan. Provide the dimensions of the easements, the purpose and the recording docket and page reference. Also provide any proposed easements on the site plan. Access to the north side of the fire station is provided through TUSD property. There should be a recorded easement for this ingress and egress access (DS 2-02.2.1.A.20). Please provide copies of the recording documents for that easement.

13. Please provide the existing and proposed lighting layout on the site plan (DS 2-02.2.1.A.25).

14. The existing zoning for the residential parcels to the east of Harrison Road is C-1 and R-3. Please revise the site plan (DS 2-02.2.1.A.28).

15. Please provide copies of the previous Administrative Waiver. Please be aware that an additional Administrative Waiver may be required for any and all code compliance issues that cannot be successfully addressed for this site (DS 2-02.2.1.A.38).

16. Please provide additional information for the expansion calculation. There appears to have been at least one additional expansion since the plan provided as the last approved site. There has also been the addition of a communications tower with a building. There should be a more resent site plan. Please revise the plans to include the full collection of expansions for this site and revise the expansion calculations accordingly. Be sure to include all structures, additional structures and expansions of any structure in these calculations. If the expansion is twenty-five percent (25%) or greater this expansion shall require full-code compliance for this site (LUC Section 3.3.3.12 and DS 2-02.2.2.A.6).

17. Please provide the floor area ratio (FAR) under "Project Data" on the site plan (DS 2-02.2.2.A.3).

18. If full-code compliance is required for the site, a loading space shall be required (DS 2-02.2.2.A.5). The loading space should be twelve feet (12') by thirty-five feet (35') with fifteen feet of vertical clearance (LUC Section 3.4.5.4). The loading space must be fully dimensioned and clearly depict the maneuvering area (DS 2-02.2.1.A.14).

19. Keynote #3 is both a parking space and a communications tower with a building. The parking space should be number 5.

20. The minimum lot size is 144,000 (3.3 acres). The maximum lot coverage, which includes all enclosed structures and all vehicle use areas, is fifty percent (50%) (LUC Section 3.2.3.2.A). Please revise the "allowable lot coverage" under "Project Data" and confirm the coverage calculation. Please list each building and category, such as vehicle use area, for the coverage calculation (DS 2-02.2.2.A.3).

21. It is difficult to discern many things on the previous site plan, due to the quality of the microfilm and the print. If pedestrian circulation has been provided on the site please depict that pedestrian circulation on this submittal (DS 2-02.2.1.A.12).

22. Please provide a van accessible parking space for the handicapped accessible parking (2003 IBC Section 1106.1). Please relocate the handicapped accessible parking to the parking space closest to the entrance of the main building (2003 IBC Section 1106.6). The width of the van accessible parking space shall be eleven feet (11') adjacent to a five foot (5') aisle, or an eight foot (8') space with an eight foot (8') aisle (ICC/ANSI A117.12003: 502.2 and 502.4.2).

23. Please provide handicapped accessible ramps to provide access to all accessible entrances of the structures. Please provide truncated domes, as detectable warnings, at every handicapped accessible transition ramp.
