Scenic Corridor Zone (SCZ) 1. The Overlay Zone case number must be noted in the lower right corner of each sheet of the tentative plat, landscape, and NPPO plans. All required elements of the SCZ (i.e. 30 foot buffer, view corridors, approved colors, etc.) and ERZ as shown on the approved Overlay Zone plan must be added to the tentative plat, along with date of approval and any conditions placed on that approval. The tentative plat may not be approved prior to Overlay Zone application approval. (LUC 2.8.2) (LUC 2.8.1) (D.S. 2-12) (D.S. 9-04) 2. Please include a thirty (30) foot buffer on the tentative plat. Label the buffer "30 foot undisturbed natural buffer to be preserved and maintained in it's natural state". 3. Please add the four hundred (400) foot SCZ corridor boundary to plat. The tentative plat currently shows this as two hundred (200) feet. Correct SCZ note 2 to read four hundred (400) feet instead of two hundred (200) feet. Please correct. 4. Please add the view corridor calculations to the plan. Any development which has at least two hundred (200) feet of frontage along a scenic route will have view corridors, with a combined width of at least twenty (20) percent of that frontage, which allow vision from a least one point into and through that portion of the project. 5. Please add the appropriate following notes to the tentative, development, or site plan plat. a) Individual SCZ case not required for each lot, but site plans, elevations, and colors must be submitted for each lot for review of compliance to Scenic Corridor Zone case number (please add SCZ case number) for height, colors, and setbacks. This development is subject to the review and approval of the special application for the Scenic Corridor Overlay. The Special application case number is (add case number).The special application has been reviewed and approved, approval date (add date), without conditions. b) Maximum height of structures will be 1/3 the distance of the structure from the future right-of-way of Houghton Road, not to exceed 24 feet. c) No grading beyond that is necessary for siting of buildings, drives, private yards, and structural improvements. All viable vegetation with a caliper of 4 inches or greater and all saguaro cacti will be preserved or relocated on the site per the Native Plant and Preservation Ordinance. d) Drainageways are to be maintained in their natural state. e) All new utilities for development on private property or public right-of-way along Houghton Road will be underground. Trenching is permitted for the placement of utilities lines, if area is revegetated in accordance with Land Use Code Sec. 3.7.5.2.D f) Building or structure surfaces, which are visible from Houghton Road will have natural earth tone colors, which are, predominate within the surrounding landscape. (Please note when using this note a color matrix is not required. It is suggested that specific color designations be removed from the tentative plat and overlay review plan.) g) Fencing and freestanding walls facing Houghton Road will meet material restrictions in Land Use Code Sec. 3.7.3, Screening Requirements. h) All areas between the MS & R right-of-way line and the existing street right-of-way that are disturbed by development shall be revegetated with native vegetation. i) All disturbed areas on the site that are visible from Houghton Road and are not covered by permanent improvements shall be revegetated with native plants, plants from the Drought Tolerant Plant List, or a combination of both. j) Exposed cut and fill slopes shall be no greater than 1-foot rise or fall over a 3-foot length. 6. Regulations for signs are stipulated in Sec. 3-32, Scenic Route District, of Chapter 3, Advertising and Outdoor Signs, of the Tucson Code, and further supplemented by the following: a) On any conflicts in requirements between the LUC and Sec. 3-32, the more strict of the two prevails. b) Signs are to use colors, which are predominant within the surrounding landscape, such as desert and earth tones. c) No commercial advertising sign, except a sign pertaining to a use conducted on the premises or a sign advertising the sale or lease of the property upon which the sign is located, and no billboard shall be erected within four hundred (400) feet of the right-of-way line on any street or route designated "scenic".

Please add note that states "No grubbing, grading, or construction will occur on site which includes areas designated to be retained in a natural state, until those designated areas are temporarily fenced. All temporary fencing will be field inspected before construction on the site begins. Fencing will be removed only upon completion of construction".

| 12/07/2006 | JOE LINVILLE | LANDSCAPE | REVIEW | Denied | The Landscape Section does not recommend approval of the application at this time. Revisions to the plans are necessary in order to document Land Use Code compliance. ERZ/Floodplain 1) Submit an Environmental Resource Report per DS 2-13.0 2) A written explanation as to why the development is necessary in the Protected Riparian Area is required. DS 2-13.2.5.B.2 SCZ regulations require that the drainageway remain in a natural state, except in unusual circumstances where the City Engineer requires modifications. LUC 2.8.2.6.C 3) The Protected Riparian Area is to be delineated on the tentative plat per DS 2-13.2.6.B and critical riparian habitat DS 2-12.2.5.B.1.s. 4) Reference the Environmental Resource Zone and note that the plat is designed to comply with the overlay zone criteria. DS 2-03.2.2.B.7 5) The project is subject to the development restrictions of DS 2-13.2.5.B.2. Revise as necessary. 6) The mitigation plans are to include landscape plans with a summary of the preservation and mitigation requirements. DS 2-13.2.5.B.3.b 7) The mitigation standards of DS 2-13.2.5.B.3.a.1 apply where necessary development is allowed. If necessary revise the mitigation plan to comply. The areas where encroachment is allowed are to be inventoried and documented per DS 2-13.2.5.B.1.r. 8) Additional information may be requested pending review of the ERR. 9) For lots greater than 24,00 square feet, a note is required on the tentative and final plat stating that each purchaser shall sign a disclosure form acknowledging the prohibition of development in the Protected Riparian Area and the prohibition of walls or fences within the Protected Riparian Areas. Refer to DS 2-13.2.6 for requirements for lots less than 24,000 square feet if changes are necessary. DS 2-13.2.6.C 10) Existing fences which impede wildlife movement through designated critical riparian habitat areas in critical riparian habitat areas are not allowed. LUC 2.8.6.7.A Revise the tentative plat as necessary. 11) Add the following note to the tentative plat: Exterior Lighting. Lighting sources will be confined to wall-mounted fixtures or standards a maximum of forty-two (42) inches in height, spaced to create pools of light rather than a saturated condition. Neither high-pressure sodium nor mercury vapor lighting will be used. All lighting sources will be shielded to reduce dispersed light. SCZ 1) Add the following notes to the landscape plan, clarify that landscape note 2 on sheet 4 applies, except as required by the SCZ regulations. A) Within the 30' scenic route buffer area, indigenous plant material is to remain. If any disturbance occurs during construction or prior to permit application, the buffer area is to be revegetated with native plants indigenous to the site and the area reconstructed to look as natural as possible. DS 2-06.7.1.B B. Within the Scenic Route buffer area and the MS&R right-of-way, all areas between the MS&R right-of-way line and the existing street right-of-way that are disturbed by development shall be revegetated with native vegetation. C. Within the SCZ, excluding the Scenic Routes buffer area, all disturbed areas on the site that are visible from the Scenic Route and are not covered by permanent improvements shall be revegetated with native plants, plants from the Drought Tolerant Plant List, or a combination of both. 2) Within the SCZ drainageways are to be maintained in their natural states where possible. LUC 2.8.2.6.C Revise the project to exclude development from the 100- yr. floodplain of the Agua Caliente Wash. 3) The notes regarding approximate grading limits on the landscape submittal should be revised. Per LUC 2.8.2.6.A, the standard for siting of improvements and grading is as follows: "Siting of structures will be such that existing natural topography and vegetation is minimally disturbed. No grading beyond that necessary for siting of buildings, parking, private yards, and structural improvements will be allowed." Grading limits shown on the documents should be the maximum proposed. |
