CASE NAME: Tucson JCC


CROSS REFERENCE:

NEIGHBORHOOD PLAN: Jewish Community Campus PAD

GATEWAY/SCENIC ROUTE: Scenic

COMMENTS DUE BY: 9-24-10

( X ) No Objection - Complies With Plan Policies
( ) Staff Submits the Following Comments - See Below


The purpose of the Jewish Community Campus PAD is to encourage a comprehensively planned development that would enable over time expansion of the campus and allow for additional uses that will support existing development. While the JCC PAD calls out that signs will be in accordance with the City of Tucson Sign Code; there have numerous roadway projects in the area, i.e. Alvernon Bridge and River Road expansion. This roadway improvement opened up the southern boundary of the Campus to passing vehicular, bicycle, and pedestrian traffic. Alvernon Way is not a scenic route, and the proposed signage provides signage for the campus at its now exposed southern boundary, and can serve to guide vehicles, pedestrians, and bicyclists.

The Scenic Route is concerned with the preservation of views and view sheds, scenic quality of the desert. Methods proposed to preserve foreground and distant views include setbacks, building orientation, and location of development in areas less visible from the roadway.

The applicant is proposing to place a wall sign on the South elevation of the existing Tucson Jewish Community Center building that:
· Faces Alvernon Way, a non-scenic arterial;
· Setback from Alvernon Way by 270 feet;
· Proposed signage will not be visible from River Road, a scenic route;
· Appears to be Setback from River Road by over 500 feet;
· Located on an existing building so there appears to be no new disturbance to views or view sheds.

Staff has no objection to the proposed sign request as it appears to meet the intent of the scenic corridor for preserving views and view sheds, and meets the objective and goals of the JCC PAD encouraging comprehensively planned development.

Sign Variance Review
Tucson Jewish Community Center - Proposed sign variance for additional signage square footage and 15' Tall monument sign

TRANSMITTAL DATE: September 21, 2010

COMMENTS:

1. Zoning has reviewed the proposed sign documents and has no adverse comments related to the additional square footage requested. The sign does not impact sight visibility, parking, pedestrian, bicycle, or loading zone requirements.

The proposed monument sign must be entirely on private property and if in the future additional R/W may be needed the sign must be relocated and re-permitted and reviewed to ensure that the sign is located on private property.

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