09/01/2006 PATRICIA GILBERT ENGINEERING REVIEW Denied DATE: September 1, 2006
ACTIVITY NUMBER: T05OT00735
PROJECT NAME: Posse styling Emporium Hair Salon
PROJECT ADDRESS: 1000 East Fort Lowell Street
PROJECT REVIEWER: Patricia Gilbert, Engineering Associate

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.

RESUBMITTAL REQUIRED: SITE PLAN


1. Identify the street centerline for Park Avenue and Fort Lowell Road.

2. Label the ROW dimensions for Park Avenue and Fort Lowell Road "Existing ½ ROW."

3. The shown ROW dimensions are not correct for Fort Lowell Road. After reviewing the subject site on the Transportation Map site, the existing full ROW dimension for Fort Lowell Rd. is 100'. The shown 50' half ROW dimension is to the front of curb with 11' sidewalk area, which is a total 61' half ROW. This is not correct. The 50' half ROW should be shown from street centerline to the property line. Please clarify or revise the site plan to show the correct dimensions for Fort Lowell Road; the 50' half ROW line to the property line, the 11' sidewalk area and the width of pavement from centerline to the front of curb should also be shown on the site plan.

4. The length for a near side site visibility triangle for an arterial road is 345'. Fort Lowell Road is designated as an arterial road. Revise the site plan appropriately. DS 2-02.2.1.A.10.

5. The 17.33 PAAL width does not meet the minimum 24' width for a two way PAAL. A Development Standard Modification Request is required for a reduction in a PAAL width. Please contact Patricia Gehlen the Community Design Review Committee (CDRC) Manager for requirements. DS 3-05.2.1.C.

6. Handicap curb access ramps are required to be constructed with truncated domes, per recent a Federal ADA requirement. Show a detail or add a general note to the site plan indicating all public and private handicap curb access ramps will have truncated domes.

7. A minimum of one foot is required between any open structure (ramada) and a PAAL. Revise the plan to show a 1' separation between the ramada and the PAAL. DS 3-05.2.2.B2.

8. A minimum setback distance of five (5) feet for a pedestrian refuge area must be maintained between any enclosed structure and a PAAL. The refuge area may have a roof for shade, provided it contains a sidewalk and pedestrian access which is unobstructed and is set back one (1) foot from the PAAL. Sidewalk is required adjacent and parallel to any PAAL on the side where buildings are located. Provide a sidewalk and pedestrian refuge between existing structure and the PAAL. Revise plan as necessary. DS 3-05.2.2.B.1., Figure 1 and DS 2-08.4.1.B.

The above comment is from the first review and has not been addressed appropriately. A sidewalk is required when a PAAL is located next to a structure. The plan shows a pedestrian striped area, this is not approvable. The striped area also cannot be located behind parking spaces, this imposes a safety hazard. Revise the site plan to show sidewalks between the PAAL and the structure and relocate the pedestrian access between the parking spaces in the garage and the PAAL. Be advised there must be a vertical separation between the PAAL and the sidewalk. DS 2-08.4.1., DS 2-08.4.1.F

PROJECT: T05OT00735
1000 E. Ft. Lowell Ave., Posse Styling Emporium
Site Plan Review (2nd review)

TRANSMITTAL: September 7, 2006

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. (Per last review) Staff acknowledges the building square footage indicate the FAR is under .35 as required, however, the exact FAR should be on the plan please.

2. (Per last review) Staff acknowledges the email from Gary Oaks advising no future widening of this intersection is to occur. For records, please label all curbs as future/existing, dimension right of way from centerline to property line (engineering has advised the 50' ROW line is incorrectly shown from CL to in front of sidewalk).

3. (Per last/current review) With regards to Pedestrian Routes: (DS 2-08)
A) a 1' setback from the ramada to the PAAL is required.
B) sidewalks must be physically separated from vehicular use areas
C) sidewalks must be made out of concrete.
D) Backing out of garage over crosswalk is a safety issue. Re-design/move sidewalk.
E) Pedestrian area north of bldg will be compromised by needed back up spur, re-design
F) Provide handicapped ramps to transition from striped access aisle to sidewalks
G) Per ANSI 705.5, add Truncated domes to ALL ramps where transitioning from pedestrian to vehicular use areas.

4. (Per last review) Backup spurs with wheel barriers must be provided at the ends of all rows of parking where vehicles must turn around to exit the site. Dimension all back-up spurs, including the one to the north of the building, at a minimum of 3 feet in depth.

Response did not address the back up spur at the north. Also, an additional 3 feet is required between the end of the back-up spur and any obstruction over 6 inches high. Dimension the depth of this additional 3-foot area at the back-up spurs. Back up spurs are needed along the PAAL abutting the west side of the building, the south side of the building and the north side of the building.


5. (Per this review) Provide curbing notes along parking areas to indicate that no vehicular access is proposed in undeveloped areas of site.

6. (Per last review) Provide a bicycle parking detail showing all dimensions demonstrating that the spaces are adequate in size and spacing and fully maneuverable. Refer to DS 2-09 for class 2 bike parking dimensions. DS 2-09.5

Response indicated bicycle parking is not required. Per LUC 3.3.4., page 223, Supplement 11 of the LUC, the minimum number of bicycle parking spaces required is 8 percent of the total number of provided vehicle parking spaces. All Class 2 (post/lock) type can be provided. Please provide detail drawing.

7. (Per last review) Dimension the width of all PAAL's and all entrance drives. Some entrance drives do not meet minimum width of 24 feet for two-way traffic. Revise plan or include as part of Board of Adjustment variance application. DS 2-02.2.1.A.11
LUC 3.2.8.3

Response still indicates substandard entry width off alley - 12' wide gate. A minimum of 24' for a PAAL is required. Please address, as this was not part of the variance package. Also, in south parking lot, dimension PAAL width behind the parking spaces to garage.

8. Staff found that the site current plan submitted was actually not the site plan that the Board of Adjustment examined for the variance process, and may not have been the plan reviewed at the last submittal. Given that the newly submitted site plan does not match the original variance proposal plan, please attach a copy of the last reviewed site plan (that went to the Board of Adjustment) with this currently reviewed site plan, on the resubmittal of this project.

9. Please clarify if the structure labeled as a garage on the submitted site plan is a proposed garage - as the aerial photos for this site do not show garage door entries and the last reviewed plan shows the structure as a storage building. Dimension the garage structure and show the position of the two parking spaces to ensure proper clearance on either side of the parking spaces for vehicle ingress/egress.

10. Staff acknowledges the Board of Adjustment variance for this project, C10-05-44, will expire on September 28, 2006. Please contact Russlyn Wells, Senior Planner with the Board of Adjustment division of Development Services, for information on possibly obtaining an extension. She can be reached at either 791-5550x1134 or Russlyn.Wells@tucsonaz.gov

11. Further review comments may be forthcoming, depending upon the responses provided. Please be sure to include copies of all plans reviewed for this project on the resubmittal. If you have any questions, please contact me at Heather.Thrall@tucsonaz.gov or at 791-4541x1156.
