RESUBMITTAL OF THE FOLLOWING IS REQUIRED: Revised site plan.
07/08/2011 RONALD BROWN H/C SITE REVIEW Denied SHEET C2.0
1. Where the sidewalk is flush with the vehicle paving at the angled accessible parking, Zoning will require a separation between the two. Typically, concrete wheel stops are acceptable. Reference zoning comments.
2. Detectable warnings are exactly that, elements that provide a warning for visually impaired persons that they are about to enter a hazardous area, generally a PAAL.
a. The two detectable warning strips placed at the bottom of the side walk ramps in front of the accessible parking are not required as the recessed concrete pedestrian walk is not a hazardous area, it is an accessible route.
3. As per note 2, there are no ramp details to reference. Please provide large scale details of all different types of ramps on the site plan. Please show all accessible dimensions, slopes, detectable warning strips as required and curbs.
4. As per note 13, there are no "Van Accessible" parking spaces identified. Please provide large scale detail of the accessible parking row showing all accessible dimensions, slopes, curbs, symbols, signage, van accessible parking, aisles, ramps and access to the accessible route.
5. At note 14, the required crossing width conflicts with the dimensions shown on the site plan. Please reconcile.
END OF REVIEW
07/25/2011 LOREN MAKUS ENGINEERING REVIEW Denied This review assumes that the site is as described and delineated on the submitted plans. However, the zoning reviewer has commented on whether or not this is part of a larger site. Once this issue is resolved, additional comments may be forthcoming and the substance of some of these comments may change.

1. A grading permit will be required for this project. The grading plans included with this site plan may be submitted along with a grading plan application when the site plan is submitted for the next review. (Development Standard (DS) 11-01.2.1.A)
2. Indicate in the plans the area of soil disturbing activities. If the area exceeds one acre, a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan must be submitted with the grading application.
3. The valley gutter running across the front of the store empties into the adjacent sites. Show how this is managed on these other sites. Provide written permissions from each of the adjacent property owners for the off-site drainage concentration. (DS 10-02.2.3.1.5.G)
4. The valley gutters collects the discharge from the parking area. Provide an analysis for the discharges through the valley gutter. Show the limits of inundation for the gutter. (DS 10-02.2.3.1.5.C; DS 2-02.1.A.15-16)
5. Clarify the status of the wall along the west property line. The site plan indicates that the wall is existing and the grading plan indicates a proposed retaining wall. The drainage statement indicates the wall has existing drainage opening that will remain. Describe the drainage openings in the wall labels. (DS 2-02.2.1.A.27)
6. Show sight visibility triangles for all driveway locations and for the intersection of Golf Links Road and Kolb Road. Sight visibility triangles are described in DS 3-01.5. (DS 2-02.1.A.10)
7. Revise the one-way PAAL and associated parking spaces to the west of the existing bank. The parking spaces must be accessible in the direction of the PAAL. (DS 3-05. Table 1)
8. Revise the storm drain connection in the street to meet the minimum size of 18 inches for storm drains within the street. The public portion of the storm drain must also be reinforced concrete pipe. The Tucson Department of Transportation requires a manhole at the property line. (DS 10-02.10.3.7 and 9)

07/28/2011 JOE LINVILLE LANDSCAPE REVIEW Denied Landscape Plans
The current landscape and screening code applies to proposed expansion areas. Existing development on the site is subject to the zoning regulations in effect at the time the existing development received zoning approval per LUC 3.7.1.2.B.1.a. Typically applications are required to include copies of the previously approved plans to allow staff to verify continued code compliance.

The following items were applicable code requirements documented on previous plans for the site:

1) Clarify how the screening requirement for the northern boundary is met. PDSD records includes a plan date stamped 6/16/72 indicating that the wall may have been located within or adjacent to alley. Depict and dimension the alley and call-out any existing screening.
2) The same plans indicate landscape planter strips and screening along the full length of the Golf Links and Kolb Road frontage for the entire commercial center. Although the proposed project appears to primarily concern areas depicted within new lot boundaries, the plan for the commercial center is required to reflect continued code compliance. Depict the areas originally designated as landscape planter strips or specific screening elements. Describe any past or present ROW changes that may have modified the original improvements and include restoration of any missing elements where possible.




Portions of the project are impacted by the current code requirements:

3) Obtain written approval from TDOT for proposed landscape installations along Kolb Road within the public right-of-way. Forward any written approvals with any subsequent landscape plan review applications.

4) Provide an irrigation plan for any new landscape installations. LUC 3.7.4.5.A

5) A tree proposed in the Kolb Road SVT near the northern driveway is subject to the following requirements: Plant materials located within SVT's should consist of ground cover or low-growing vegetation of a species that will not grow higher than (30) inches. However, trees may be planted within SVT's provided that: A) The trunk caliper, at maturity, will not exceed twelve (12) inches in diameter; B) The lowest branch of any tree is at least six (6) feet above the grade of the street, and C) Trees are not planted in a line that could result in a solid wall effect when viewed from an angle. LUC 3.7.2.8 & DS 2-06
Add appropriate notes to the plan to address the standards associated with locating trees in SVT's.

6) The following standards apply to landscaping proposed in public right-of-way:
1. It is the owners responsibility to keep the Sight Visibility Triangles (SVT), and the pedestrian access area clear of vegetation at all times, per Land Use Code (LUC) section
2. Final plant locations must be in compliance with all utility setback requirements.
3. The owner understands that if the City of Tucson Transportation Department or any utility company needs to work within the ROW in the landscaped area, plants and irrigation may be destroyed without replacement or repair.
4. The owner takes full liability for this landscape and irrigation, and any damage to roadway, sidewalk and utilities.
5. The only private irrigation equipment that is allowed within the ROW are lateral lines, tubing and emitters that are not under constant pressure. All other equipment must be on private property. (excluding water meter)
6. Contractor to obtain a Right Of Way excavation permit prior to construction within the right-of-way.

The Department of Transportation requires that the above standards be listed on the plans. Revise as necessary.
