PROJECT NAME: Car wash Remodel to a Liquor Store
PROJECT ADDRESS: 4415 South 6th Avenue
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. All lettering and dimensions will be the equivalent of twelve point or greater in size. The purpose of this requirement is to assure that the lettering is legible when reproduced or microfilmed for record keeping purposes. The current font measures to 10 point, it must be at least 12 point or greater in size. Revise all lettering to be at least 12 point within the location map and on the plan where the font is less than 12point (i.e. labeling for SVTs, building information, etc).

2. The plan has several areas where the shading has made it difficult to read/review information provided on the plan. The legibility of plan after microfilming could be inhibited. Remove the grey shading from the plan for plan clarity.

3. Add a legend to the plan indicating different line type, shading, etc.

4. Provide a location map which meets the minimum requirements of D.S. 2-05.2.1.D, show the subject property approximately centered in the one (1) square mile area, identify conditions within the square mile area, such as major streets and watercourses, section, township and range and scale.

There appears to be a line with an arrow indicating the direction of travel, however a legend has not been provided, so the line weight can not be identified. Please clarify. DS 2-02.2.1.A.11.

9. There is an existing 5' fence and tree located to the east of the parking canopy, is the intent to drive through this area for access? Or is there no vehicle access in this area? If the intent is to provide vehicle access through this area the travel lane must be free from obstructions. Clarify on the plan view or in the response letter. DS 2-02.2.1.A.11.

10. Clarify the vertical distance of the parking canopy. The minimum height clearance for a PAAL is 15'. Indicate the height clearance for the parking canopy structure. DS 2-02.2.1.A.11., DS 3-05.2.1.4.a.

11. The PAAL on the west side of the structure appears not provide adequate vehicle maneuverability the ingress and egress to a space. (See Zoning comment 6) A recommendation is to provide the parking spaces on the east side of the structure. DS 2-02.2.1.A.11.

12. Show the loading vehicle maneuverability for the required loading space. The minimum requirements for a 30' single unit vehicle is an outside radius of 42' and inside radius of 28'. American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials.

Steel pipes are required between the container and the enclosure's rear and side walls to prevent the container from damaging the enclosure while being serviced. Enclosure gates have a minimum opening of ten (10) feet.

15. Provide existing finish grades to determine the drainage of drainage. DS 2-02.2.1.A.16.

16. Provide existing contour(s) at interval not exceeding two feet as pertinent and Bench Mark based on a City of Tucson Datum, include City Book and Page. DS 2-02.2.1.A.23.

17. The finish floor elevation is not visible. Clearly indicate on the plan view the building finish floor elevation. DS 2-02.2.1.A.16.

18. 6th Avenue is designated as an arterial road per the Major Street & Route Plan (MS&R Plan). Indicate that 6th Avenue is a public MS&R Road. Include the recordation data with the label. DS 2-02.2.1.A.18.

Revise the plan to show a sidewalk from the sidewalk located within the street frontage of 6th Avenue to the structure. DS 2-08.04.

23. 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 the PAAL and all applicable sides of the existing structure. Revise plan as necessary. DS 3-05.2.2.B.1., Figure 1 and DS 2-08.4.1.B.

24. Per the Transportation Access Management Guidelines (TAMG) 25' curb returns are required for an ingress/egress for arterial road. Indicate on the plan 25' curb return at the ingress/egress. TAMG 5.5
