1. This site plan was reviewed for compliance with the City of Tucson Development Standards (D.S.) and Land Use Code (LUC) for full code compliance for the entire site.

2. It appears that a lot split is proposed for this project. Per LUC Sec. 4.1.2. DEFINITIONS, Land Split.

This said, based on information available it appears that the number of splits for this parcel has exceeded the maximum three (3) allowed. Provide a twenty (20) year history. Be aware that a plat may be required. Contact the zoning administrator in writing to determine the platting requirements.

3. It appears that buildings A, C & F have storage areas that do not have direct access from the parking area access lane (PAAL). Provide floor plans so that vehicle parking and loading space requirements can be verified.
