FROM: Heather Thrall
Senior Planner

PROJECT: T06OT0T03271
3459 S. 12th Avenue, El Gorrion Restaurant parking lot changes
Commercial Site plan, 1st review

TRANSMITTAL DATE: January 11, 2007

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 project was reviewed solely for compliance with the last approved site plan from 1995, incorporating changes to the parking lot layout as proposed under this current site plan. This project was reviewed for content specified in DS 2-02, site plan criteria. It is important that the site plan has these elements, as this will be the most updated plan on file.

2. Per DS 2-02.2.1.6, are there any roof overhangs on the existing buildings that are not shown? If so, please show with dimensions from the wall edges.

Please place a note on the plan that states "the current use of the site also includes the incidental use of the kitchen as a peddler commissary for El Gorrion off site services".

3. Per DS 2-02.2.1.7, note the setbacks for the kitchen from north, south, east property lines. Note the setbacks for the restaurant from the north and south property lines, and from the future curb location of 12th, and show the future curb of 12th Avenue.

4. Per DS 2-02.2.1.8, with regards to parking:
A) In the center island of parking, please ensure all parking spaces are 18' long.
B) Please ensure that a landscape island surrounded by curbing is provided for a canopy tree at minimum.
C) Staff suggests providing bollards (see me for description) to protect some of the parking island and landscaping, rather than curbing.
D) Note that the location of the signs directing traffic through the site may have to be repositioned depending upon the turning radii needed for the trucks entering the site.
E) Dimension the handicapped parking space closest to the restaurant.
F) Note that further comments on parking may be forthcoming.

5. Per DS 2-02.2.1.9, with regards to bicycle parking:
A) thank you for providing bicycle parking racks. The DS 2-09 requirements for bicycle parking have been updated, however, in the types of racks that are permitted. Please reference the diagram provided in DS 2-09 (toward the back) showing an inverted U for example. Please be sure to keep 5' clear around the racks and ensure that the bikes are not going to be parked in the way of the regular pedestrian path.

6. Per DS 2-02.2.1.11, please dimension the entrance to the site. In addition, the sign proposed at the north end of the site should say "exit only" rather than one way for the north exit point.

7. Per DS 2-02.2.1.12, please show the width of the handicapped ramp immediately adjacent to the north side of the restaurant. The slope is fine, and I see there is a solid concrete pad proposed leading to the entry. Is that concrete pad going to poured to be in flush with an existing concrete pad at the entry of the restaurant?

8. Per DS 2-02.2.1.13, are there any new signs proposed? I see the new 30" tall wall near the entry, is that to be a sign as well? Any new free-standing lighting as well? Give specs if so, including pole height and base width.

9. Per DS 2-02.2.1.14, The loading zone shown is labeled as 12x25, yet scales to 12x35. Is it 12x35? Please verify. Show loading zone maneuverability on the plan. If this is not a loading zone that meets standards, please remove the reference to a loading area, and leave the striping to prevent parking.

10. Per DS 2-02.2.1.20, any easements?

11. Per DS 2-02.2.1.32, please see Engineering for advisement on the placement of the trash receptacle and waste vehicle maneuvering on site.

12. Per DS 2-02.2.1.38, please list the old Board of Adjustment case variance with case number, what the variance was for and the conditions of approval. C10-92-82. These records should be in our records file under the address. This variance may be void - as it was before the north parking lot was added to the restaurant site.

13. Please note that further review comments may be forthcoming, depending upon the responses provided. You may reach me at Heather.Thrall@tucsonaz.gov or at 791-4541x1156 to make an appointment to go over the parking scenario for the middle parking oasis.


If you have any questions about this transmittal, please call (520) 791-5608.
