| 02/23/2007 | HEATHER THRALL | ZONING | REVIEW | Denied | TO: Development Services Department Plans Coordination Office FROM: Heather Thrall Senior Planner PROJECT: T07CM00471 2201 N. Forbes Blvd., new warehouse & Office uses Commercial Site Plan, 1st Review TRANSMITTAL DATE: February 23, 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 requirements of the Land Use Code (LUC), Development Standard (DS), International Building Code 2003 (IBC) and American National Standard Institute (ANSI). This plan was reviewed for content in DS 2-02. (I did not make any zoning redlines for this project) This project appears to have calculations in several places for two principal uses - commercial storage and office uses - yet the declared principal use on the plan is commercial storage. (Both commercial storage and office uses have the same development designator criteria.) It appears the parking and bicycle parking are proposed at the amount required for both uses. If that is the case, then staff has to ensure that other design criteria, ie. Loading zones - are provided for BOTH uses. If the site is only commercial storage use with related/associated office uses, then please just show those calculations and "over park" the site with bicycle and office parking. 2. Per DS 2-02.2.1.3, the site has been assigned the address 2201 N. Forbes Blvd. Please provide this note on the cover sheet and on all pages of the site plan, near the title bar. 3. Per DS 2-02.2.1.2, provide a document stating the city approved the 1977 & 80 lot splits per the Assessor's. Check DS records, contact me if you need further advisement. 4. Per DS 2-02.2.1.6, with regards to the building: A) please dimension the proposed building footprint (for records and issuing permits) B) please advise of any roof overhangs and their vertical clearance (for pedestrian needs) C) please declare the roof height (I see the parapet height, thank you) D) please show the second story "footprint" - it appears much smaller than 1st floor footprint - is the rest of the area a mezzanine or is the 1st floor "vaulted" in portions? E) Please clarify if the office areas are for the same business (don't want to assume wrong) or should be calculated out separately as two primary uses. 5. Per DS 2-02.2.1.7, the setbacks for the structure meet code, as proposed. For records and inspections, please provide the actual proposed setbacks - from property lines. 6. Per DS 2-02.2.1.8, with regards to parking: A) parking is based upon the principal use declared - please just clarify if the office area is separate use from the storage area business use and should be calculated separately. Parking is exceeded with both uses accounted for, thank you. B) Please add wheel stop barriers to both van accessible handicapped parking spaces ( a physical separation is needed between a sidewalk and a parking space, and there is a note that advises the asphalt will be rising to meet the elevation of the sidewalk here). C) Please provide a dimension between the edge of the top of the parking space and the security fence at the rear of the site (SW) - a vehicle overhang of 2'6" is needed at the top of the parking space to protect this fence. Add wheel stop barrier if needed. D) Provide a note on typical detail drawing for handicapped accessible sign that the fine for illegally parking in one is $518.00. E) where are the proposed carports going to be erected? 7. Per DS 2-02.2.1.9 and DS 2-09, with regards to bicycle parking: A) please show the entrance to the building and measure that all class 2 is within 50' of the entrance to the building B) show 5' clear pedestrian area around bike parking C) show surfacing material under bike parking D) show class I bike parking typical detail drawing to meet DS 2-09 E) show signage for class I bike parking - directing employees bike parking inside F) further comments on bike parking may be forthcoming 8. Per DS 2-02.2.1.12, with regards to handicapped circulation: A) a pedestrian access route is needed from Forbes to the building. Suggest linking the route by adding a crosswalk from the handicapped parking access aisle closest to Forbes to the handicapped parking access aisle closest to the building to complete the route. B) Provide truncated domes (early warning devices) where transitioning from pedestrian to vehicular use areas - even if no handicapped ramp is involved. C) Is the sidewalk that leads from Forbes in flush with the asphalt level or is a handicapped ramp needed - clarify with note. If a handicapped ramp is needed, please provide a typical detail drawing. D) In the pedestrian refuge area along the NW side of the building and along the area leading to the loading zones - I do not see a sidewalk. Per DS 2-08, a sidewalk is to be included in the pedestrian refuge area between a PAAL and a building. Please clarify. 9. Per DS 2-02.2.1.13, please clarify if there are any existing or proposed free-standing lighting, signs or billboards with their specifications. 10. Per DS 2-02.2.1.14, with regards to loading: A) loading calculations are based upon the principal use - and a loading zone is required for each principal use - at the square footage criteria in section 3.4.5. It appears the plan accounts for two principal uses - given separate bicycle and vehicular parking calculations. If the principal use is commercial storage - then an additional loading zone of 12x55 is needed per LUC 3.4.5.2 (taking the square footage of the entire building). If there are two separate uses, then an additional loading zone is needed on the site for the office principal use - at 12x35 per LUC 3.4.5.5 (looking at the office square footage). Clarify if the loading areas are in loading docks (walls, stairs, etc all called out) 10. Per DS 2-02.2.1.20, please ensure any/all easements applicable to this site are shown on the plan, with type and recordation data. 11. Per DS 2-02.2.1.32, please see Engineering comments on refuse containers/location. 12. Please note, depending upon response provided, further review comments may be forthcoming. Should you have any questions, please contact me at Heather.Thrall@tucsonaz.gov or at 791-4541x1156.
