FROM: Heather Thrall
Senior Planner

PROJECT: T07CM00330
1767 E. Benson Hwy
Commercial Site Plan, 1st Review

TRANSMITTAL DATE: February 13, 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 for compliance with the Land Use Code (LUC), Development Standard (DS), International Building Code 2003 (IBC), and American National Standard Institute (ANSI). Specifically, this plan was reviewed for content specified in DS 2-02.

2. The property description for this site shows that it was split in 1990. Please provide the lot split plan that would have been reviewed and required to be approved by the city.

In addition, it appears that a new lot line is proposed on the plan separating the site from adjacent "undeveloped" areas. This line is not on the legend, please add to legend and clarify. A lot split, if proposed, is a separate process.

3. On the location map: Please make the map a scale of 3" = 1 mile. Please add the township range and section of this site and surrounding sections.

4. Increase all type to a minimum of 12 point to ensure microfilming is possible.

5. Provide a legend including all symbols and line weights on the plan.

6. Remove the shading from the plan - the shading is too dark to microfilm.

7. Per DS 2-02.2.1.6, with regards to buildings:
A) please show the height and vertical clearance of the fuel canopy.
B) Please show the roof overhang of the retail store - dimension
C) Please show the vertical clearance of the roof overhang
D) Show the actual provided setbacks from all lot lines (I acknowledge the setbacks for the structures appear to be in compliance) for records
E) Show any support columns for the roof overhang on the retail building (for pedestrian clearance)

8. Per DS 2-02.2.1.8 and LUC 3.3.4, with regards to parking:
A) please provide wheel stop barriers within 2'6" from the top of the parking space to ensure pedestrian clearance on the adjacent sidewalk is not compromised. Please add the wheel stop detail to the parking detail drawing.

9. Per DS 2-02.2.1.9 with regards to bicycle parking:
A) the bicycle parking racks proposed do not meet the specifications per DS 2-09. Please see the updated bike rack figures shown in DS 2-09 and redesign.
B) Bike racks can cross pedestrian sidewalks at a right angle, but cannot use a pedestrian walkway to gain access, and 5' clearance is needed on one side - flip the bike rack to be parallel with sidewalk adjacent and still provide 5' clearance.

10. Per DS 2-02.2.1.11, with regards to PAALs:
A) a minimum PAAL width of 24' is required behind a parking space for two way access to the parking space. The PAAL width at the north side of the site is shown at a possible property line less than 24' wide. Explain what line is and ensure 24' clearance provided.
B) Provide dimension for PAALs between fuel dispensers
C) Call out curbing throughout the site and ensure curbing is provided to protect undeveloped land from vehicle access
D) Clarify if vehicle turn around area to south side of site and dimension

11. Per DS 2-02.2.1.12, with regards to pedestrian/handicapped circulation:
A) per DS 2-08.4.1.A, re-design crosswalk to bi-sect PAAL more safely - the cross-walk is quite lengthy and encourages pedestrian access centrally in the middle of the PAAL. The intention is to provide a safe pedestrian refuge area, which may take sidewalks to accomplish along the PAAL from Kino - with a shorter 90 degree bisection across the PAAL.
B) The crosswalk provided behind the loading zones is unsafe - backing out over a crosswalk is not permitted. Re-design pedestrian access around this area.
C) Provide widths for all crosswalks and sidewalks
D) Provide detail drawing for ramps with slopes, dimensions and truncated domes (refer to ANSI 705.5. for help with truncated domes)
E) Provide truncated domes at handicapped parking access aisle - where transitioning from sidewalk to vehicular use area at top of access aisle
F) Dimension the sidewalk width in front of the building and identify what two objects are blocking the sidewalk - make sure 4' clearance between building front and parking lot is provided for pedestrians at all times.

12. Per DS 2-02.2.1.13, please clarify if there is any proposed free-standing signage or lighting with height and base detail specs.

13. Per DS 2-02.2.1.14, with regards to loading zones:
A) loading areas cannot be stacked in front of a trash space
B) the loading zones should be referred to as such rather than vendor parking.
C) Loading zones must be a minimum of 12x35 feet and be striped
D) See engineering for maneuvering requirements and whether they should be shown on the site plan.

14. Per DS 2-02.2.1.19, dimension the right of way for Kino and Benson
A) label the half right of way
B) label the future curb location

15. Per DS 2-02.2.1.20, please ensure all easements are referenced on the plan with their recordation information (docket/page) and type.

16. Per DS 2-02.2.1.32, please see engineering and environmental services depts for advisement on refuse locations.

17. Per DS 2-02.2.2.A.1, please provide the gross and net lot area.

18. Per DS 2-02.2.2.A.2, please provide the Floor Area Ratio calculation for the site (please reference Sec. 3.2.11.2.C/p. 213 of the LUC) - just the retail building is required, not the canopy as it is not an enclosed structure.

19. Depending upon the responses provided, further review comments may be forthcoming. Should you have any questions on this review, please contact me at Heather.Thrall@tucsonaz.gov or at 520-791-4541x1156.

Revise the plan to show the solid waste enclosure in an area where the solid waste truck can access the enclosure safely and without obstructions. DS 6-01.4.1.K.

17. Indicate a refuse enclosure detail as per D.S. 6-01.4.2.C. The base shall be a concrete slab with an inside clear dimension of ten (10) feet by ten (10) feet by five (5) inches thick.

TRAFFIC ANANLYSIS COMMENTS

1. The review for the TIA Report (dated 1-11-07) will need to be coordinated with TDOT to assess current improvements that are in review or to be constructed in the adjacent right-of-ways; further comments are forthcoming. Specifically, it is important that proposed entrance alignment and design is coordinated with other current intersection improvements along Campbell. Call for consultant contact information and check with Permits and Codes for any PIA /right-of-way coordination.


DRAINAGE REPORT COMMENTS

1. The submitted drainage document does not meet the minimum standards for report content and format as described in the Standards Manual for Drainage Design and Floodplain Management section 2.3.1. Provide a drainage report that meets the minimum standards. The drainage standards can be found on the internet at the following address; http://www.tucsonaz.gov/dsd/Codes___Ordinances/codes___ordinances.html
