FROM: Steve Shields
Lead Planner

PROJECT: American Home Furnishings - Warehouse Expansion
T06CM05594
Site Plan (1st Review)

TRANSMITTAL DATE: November 13, 2006

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. This site plan was reviewed for full code compliance with the City of Tucson Development Standards (D.S.) and Land Use Code (LUC) due to an expansion of greater then 25% of building/structure area.

2. This site plan was reviewed as "STOREAGE USE GROUP, COMMERCIAL STORAGE, Subject to LUC Sec. 3.5.10.1" and the following comments reflect this review. Zoning is in the process verifying if this project requires review under LUC Sec. 3.5.9.7 "LARGE RETAIL ESTABLISHMENT" design criteria. Information regarding this project has been forwarded to the City of Tucson's Zoning Administrator and Attorney's office so that a determination can be made in regards to the large retail establishment. Additional review and comments may be forth coming.

3. It appears that this project is comprised of four (4) different parcels. Prior to approval of the site plan the parcels will need to be combined. Provide a Pima County Tax Parcel Combo and a recorded covenant regarding development and use of real property.

4. Add a note to the plan stating "THIS SITE PLAN IS DESIGNED TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE OVERLAY ZONES, MAJOR STREETS AND ROUTES (MS&R) SETBACK ZONE".

5. D.S. 2-02.2.1.A.3 Provide the project address.

6. D.S. 2-02.2.1.A.5 Show the size, height, overhangs and canopies for all existing and proposed buildings.

7. LUC 3.2.6.5.B.1 & D.S. 2-02.2.1.A.7 Provide the required building setbacks from Prince Road and Weymouth Street. This set back is based on the location of the existing or future curb along Prince Road and Weymouth Street. Future curb needs to be shown along Prince Road and then the required setback dimensioned from the back of future curb. Label the future and existing curb along both Prince Road and Weymouth Street. If the future and existing curb are one in the same label the curb as existing & future. The setback for both Prince Road and Weymouth Street is 21' or the height of the building which ever is greatest. The required setback can not be determined until the height of the proposed addition is provided on the plan, see comment 3. Be aware that a future taper is planned for this area, see engineering comments. The east setback and setback line shown is incorrect. Per LUC 3.2.6.4 I1 to I1 zone requires a 0 setback.

8. D.S. 2-02.2.1.A.8 Fully dimension the parking layout. Provide typical details for both handicapped and standard parking spaces.

9. D.S. 2-02.2.1.A.8 & D.S. 3-05.2.3.C.1Post barricades or wheel stop curbing designed to prevent parked vehicles from overhanging adjacent sidewalk area are required at the new handicapped/standard parking spaces provide in the southwest corner where the new addition meets the existing unless the sidewalk is a minimum of 6'-6" wide.

10. D.S. 2-02.2.1.A.9 Provide off-street bicycle parking, including material for lighting, paving, and security; fully dimensioned layout; location; specific type of rack and the number of bicycles is supports; and the location and type of directional signage if required.

11. D.S. 2-02.2.1.A.10 Provide existing and future sight visibility triangles (SVT) for the PAALs access from Prince.

12. D.S. 2-02.2.1.A.10 Provide a dimension for the PAAL access from Prince where the new curb is shown.

13. D.S. 2-02.2.1.A.12 Delineate between existing and proposed sidewalks. It is unclear which sidewalks are new and which are existing.

14. D.S. 2-02.2.1.A.12 & D.S. 2-08.4.1.B A sidewalk will be provided adjacent and parallel to any PAAL on the side where a building is located. There is no sidewalk shown on the south side of the proposed addition and at appears that there is not enough room to provide a sidewalk around the southeast corner of the building.

15. D.S. 2-02.2.1.A.12 It appears that there are new handicapped/standard parking spaces provide in the southwest corner where the new addition meets the existing. It is unclear how the handicapped accessible aisle will access the sidewalk, clarify. Detectable warnings (truncated domes) will be required at all curb access ramps. ICC/ANSI A117.1-2003 Sec. 406.13

16. D.S. 2-02.2.1.A.12 & D.S. 2-08.1 An accessible route is required from the main entrance of the building to the sidewalk in the right-of-way along Prince Road. There is a sidewalk shown with a crosswalk across the PAAL and then a sidewalk out to Prince Road. There are no curb access ramps or areas that indicate that the sidewalk is flush with the pavement, therefore it is unclear where the accessible route is located, clarify.

17. D.S. 2-02.2.1.A.12 Until the bicycle parking has been identified zoning can not verify the bicycle circulation.

18. D.S. 2-02.2.1.A.13 Provide the location, type, size and height of existing and proposed freestanding signage and/or billboards.

19. D.S. 2-02.2.1.A.14 Fully dimension the loading spaces and maneuvering area.

21. D.S. 2-02.2.1.A.25 If applicable provide existing and proposed lighting layout and type.

22. D.S. 2-02.2.1.A.28 Provide on plans existing zoning of this project and the adjacent parcels.

23. D.S. 2-02.2.1.A.31 Provide the existing and proposed use on the plan.

24. D.S. 2-02.2.1.A.32 Provide the refuse container location on the plan.

25. D.S. 2-02.2.1.A.38 Per the last approved site plan there was a DSMR approved for the pedestrian access near the southwest loading zones, provide the DSMP information on the plan.

26. D.S. 2-02.2.2.A.3 Provide a Floor Area Ration (FAR) per LUC 3.2.11.2.C

27. D.S. 2-02.2.2.A.4 The Disabled vehicle parking space calculation is incorrect. Per the IBC Table 1106.1, when 158 parking spaces are provided, then 6 handicapped spaces are required. Revise the calculation to show 6 required. Per the IBC Sec. 1106.5 if 14 vehicle handicapped spaces are provide then 3 must be van accessible. Provide this calculation on the plan.

28. D.S. 2-02.2.2.A.4 Provide a bicycle parking calculation on the plan.

29. D.S. 2-02.2.2.A.4 Provide a building & site area expansion calculation on the plan.
