| 02/27/2016 | MPADILL1 | COMMUNITY PLANNING | REVIEW | Completed | PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT SERVICES SE-16-21 Sr. Jose Women's Center - 7th Avenue HC-1 Zone Plan Tucson and University Area Plan and West University Neighborhood Plan 2/12/16 msp Background: This is a special exception request in the historic HC-1 Zone, to allow a residential care service, more specific a shelter care use on a 0.28 of an acre parcel located on the northeast corner of North 7th Avenue and East 4th Street. The Special Exception request is for a women's shelter care use in a commercial lot developed with two (2), two-story residential structures. The main structure is designated as a contributing historic home build in 1951, in the West University Historic District. The secondary structure is detached with sleeping quarters and is not a contributing historic building. This special exception land use is supported by the University Area Plan and the West University Neighborhood Plan. The Preliminary Development Plan (PDP) proposes both residential structures to include the shelter use. The PDP shows no exterior changes to the structures or the existing grounds. Existing on-site parking fronts Ferro Avenue. According to the Major Streets and Routes Plan, North 7th Avenue, East 4th Street and North Ferro Avenue are all designated local streets. Surrounding Zoning and Land Uses: The surrounding land uses and zones are as follows: to the west across 7th Avenue are single-family residential and residentially-scaled office uses zoned HC-1, historic commercial zone; to the south across 4th Street are single-family residential and residentially-scaled office uses zoned HC-1 historic commercial zone; to the east across Ferro Avenue are multi-family residential uses zoned HR-3 residential; and to the north are single-family residential uses zoned HC-1 historic commercial and HR-3 residential. Neighborhood Meeting: Applicant has provided the required neighborhood meeting material: mailing notification, copy of labels, notice letter, meeting summary, and sign-in sheet. The applicant held a neighborhood meeting, on January 6, 2016 from 6:30 pm to 7:45 pm, at Fellowship Hall. The meeting was attended by 23 neighbors. Discussion focused on the description of how the facilities will be used, strategies for mitigating impacts on neighborhood properties, security of the facility, concerns about proliferation of social services in the area, and an explanation of the Special Exception process and how to provide feedback to staff and the Zoning Examiner at the public hearing. Land Use Policies: Policy direction is provided by Plan Tucson, the University Area Plan and the West University Neighborhood Plan. Plan Tucson: The proposed special exception site located at 700 N. 7th Avenue and zoned HC-1 historic commercial land use. Plan Tucson identifies the site and surrounding area as being within an "Existing Neighborhood" category. The "Existing Neighborhoods" category is for largely built out neighborhoods with a goal to maintain the character of these neighborhoods, while accommodating some new development/new services and amenities that contribute further to neighborhood stability. Applicable land, transportation, and urban design policy direction, include; policy LT1 which addresses integrated land uses that support more effective use of resources, and sensitivity to historic and natural resources and neighborhood character. Policy LT27 states, using existing neighborhood, area, and other specific plans as the starting point, undertaking an inclusive public process to explore the concept of developing and implementing planning and service areas to coordinate and enhance land use planning. Policy LT28 encourages the application of the guidelines for development review (exhibit LT-11), to evaluate and provide direction for special exception applications. The following guidelines apply: PT Chapter 3, guideline LT28.1.7, Preserve and strengthen the distinctive physical character and identity of individual neighborhoods and commercial districts. PT Chapter 3, guideline LT28.1.10, Consider special zoning districts, such as overlay districts, as a way to promote the reuse of historic structures, foster mixed-use activity notes, pedestrian and transit-oriented development areas and pedestrian-oriented districts in areas suitable for redevelopment or enhancement. PT Chapter 3, guideline LT28.1.13, Preserve Tucson's cultural heritage, including archaeology, architecture, and its array of cultural traditions. PT Chapter 3, guideline LT28.1.16, Preserve Tucson's historic architecture in keeping with applicable rehabilitation standards. PT Chapter 3, guideline LT28.2.13, Supports infill and redevelopment projects that reflect sensitivity to site and neighborhood conditions and adhere to relevant site and architectural design guidelines. PT Chapter 3, guideline LT28.2.14, Protect established residential neighborhoods by supporting compatible development, which may include other residential, mixed-use infill and appropriate nonresidential uses. University Area Plan: The University Area Plan (UAP) provides a neighborhood conservation goal to preserve and enhance the historic character and residential quality of life in the University Area neighborhood. Applicable polices include the following: UAP, Neighborhood Conservation Policy 2, utilize City's adopted ordinances, plans, and guidelines to protect neighborhood perimeters from the intrusion of incompatible uses. UAP, Neighborhood Conservation Policy 6, recommend against the granting of parking variances which may produce unacceptable levels of on-street parking, noise, or through-traffic in residential areas. UAP, Public/Semi Public Development Policy 1, Encourage the maintenance and enhancement of existing public and semi-public uses such as libraries, schools, parks, churches, social and cultural facilities. UAP, Public/Semi Public Development Policy 2, Support the development of new public and semi-public uses which are compatible with the physical environment and social needs of the University Area neighborhoods. UAP, Public Services Goal, Ensure an adequate supply of high quality public services to meet the current and projected needs of University Area residents and businesses. West University Neighborhood Plan: A goal of the West University Neighborhood Plan (WUNP) is to preserve and enhance the residential character of the West University Neighborhood. Applicable polices include the following: WUNP, Neighborhood Conservation Policy 1, the residential character of the established neighborhood needs to be protected. WUNP, Neighborhood Conservation Policy 1.D.2, Support the continued presence of community-based organizations offering community service and recreational facilities. WUNP, Neighborhood Conservation Policy 1.E, Improve the appearance and quality of the landscape within the West University Neighborhood consistent with the area's historic character. WUNP, Commercial and Office Development, Policy 3.C.1, promote shared off-street parking facilities, the development of streetscape improvement program, and the establishment of landscape buffers between commercial uses and adjacent residential properties. Analysis: The request is for a special exception within a local historic neighborhood established in January of 1984 as the West University Historic District. The subject property is a historic designated property zoned HC-1 commercial. As defined in the C-1 commercial zone, a Residential Care Service, specifically a Shelter Care with unlimited number of residents requires a special exception procedure if the proposed shelter care land use will be located within 500 feet, measured in a straight line, from the property line to a zone boundary line of R-3 or more restrictive zone. The site is located at 700 North 7th Avenue and located within twenty (20) feet of HR-3, a historic residential zoned property. The proposed site was recorded in 1903, as City of Tucson Re-subdivision, in Book 2, Page 4, Lot 11, Block 39. Lot 11 has approximately 12,165 square feet of land area and has two existing residential buildings, both two stories, with a combined floor square footage of 5,200 square feet. The building fronting 7th Avenue is a structure identified on the National Registered of Historic Places and in the local West University Neighborhood contributing historic site. Per the applicant no exterior site improvements are proposed, will use existing on-site parking with access from Ferro Avenue. Since the site is a historic site, the applicant is currently seeking legal conforming status with the city on site requirements that may include parking, building setbacks, landscaping, and lot coverage. Conclusion: Plan Tucson, the University Area Plan and the West University Neighborhood Plan land use policy support the continued presence of residentially scaled office and community-based organizations offering community service while protecting the historic integrity of the residential neighborhood, subject to compatibility and help stabilize the surrounding historic community. As proposed the residential care service, a women's shelter will operate Monday through Saturday, providing day services to homeless women of all ages, from the hours of 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and allow overnight stay only as an emergency measure when nights reach freezing temperatures, known as "operation deep freeze." The goal of the shelter care, Sister Jose Women's Center is to provide day care services for up to 65 women during the day and provide emergency night shelter care services for up to 20 women during "operation deep freeze." The conceptual site design and prior land uses recorded indicate the site has been previously used for residentially scaled behavioral health service/office use, while protecting the historic integrity of the property. The proposed use of a shelter care facility is supported by land use plan policy, subject to proper mitigation measures established to protect the historic neighborhood and surrounding area including a private charter school located 100 feet from shelter site. Staff recommends the applicant provide a Security Management Plan (SMP) for the shelter care use. SMP should address such issues as; scope of plan, definition of Sister Jose Women's Center, statement of need, objectives of the security plan, outdoor lighting, hours of operation (summer and winter), the operational schedule of shelter including closing hours as compared with nearby charter school day schedule, access to facility, proposed signage, proposed on-site or off-site 24-hour security monitoring, and personnel/title as 24-hour contact for designated historic neighborhood presentative(s). Staff also recommends the SMP provide a map/illustration to identify the following land uses if located approximately ½ mile from shelter site; city parks, bus routes, bus-stop stations, churches or/an agencies providing community services to the general public, as possible pedestrian migration patterns which may impact the historic residential neighborhoods. A plan amendment is not required Recommendation In general, the proposed special exception land use is consistent with the direction provided by Plan Tucson and the University Area Plan (UAP), and the West University Neighborhood Plan (WUNP). The proposed residential care service, a shelter care center for women is in keeping with the character of the area, subject to mitigation of potential impacts on the surrounding historic neighborhood. Staff offers the following special exception conditions for consideration: 1. Development package submittal shall include documentation the shelter care center has personnel (title), as the point of contact for the designated historic neighborhood representative(s)/area residents, and/or business owners with property within 500 feet and for designated West University Historic District representative(s) located within one mile, as a means of keeping a 24 hour open line of communication to address any future issues and concerns on the daily operations of the women's shelter care center; " PT Chapter 3, Guidelines LT28.1.7, LT28. 1.10, LT28.1.13, LT28.1.16, LT28.2.13, and LT28.14 " UAP Neighborhood Conservation Policy 2, and Policy 6 " UAP Public/Semi Public Development Policy 1, and Policy2 " UAP Public Services Goal, Ensure high quality public services " WUNP Neighborhood Conservation Policy 1, Policy 1.D.2, and Policy 1.E, " WUNP Commercial and Office Development Policy 3.C.1 2.

| 03/03/2016 | MPADILL1 | REZ AGENCY REVIEW | OFFICE OF CONSERVATION & SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT | Approved | DATE: February 22, 2016 TO: Peter McLaughlin, Lead Planner FROM: Irene Ogata, PLA, ASLA, CPM Planning & Development Services Urban Landscape Manager SUBJECT: Case : SE-16-21 Sr. Jose Women's Center This is a change of use request from a treatment program/residential to a shelter. No outdoor modifications are proposed. No special exception conditions are requested for consideration of this project unless outdoor modifications are made. For informational purposes the following practices are being promoted by the City. The City of Tucson has been moving toward achieving sustainable development, mitigation of Urban Heat Islands, climate change resiliency and green building principles. In addition to the recently adopted and voter ratified Plan Tucson: Tucson's General and Sustainability Plan 2013, Mayor and Council endorsed the United Nations Urban Environmental Accords in 2005, adopted the US Mayors' Climate Protection Agreement in 2006, endorsed the City of Tucson Urban Landscape Framework and adopted the City's Framework for Advancing Sustainability in 2008. Surfaces, such as paving from roadways and asphalt parking areas contribute to approximately 40% of impervious surfaces in a city. These impervious surfaces, in turn, contribute to increasing urban heat islands. The unintended consequences contribute to the city's increased temperature and expose populations within neighborhoods to extreme heat events; and also increasing energy use due to the need to cool homes and facilities. Limiting heat-absorbent paved surfaces, increasing reflectivity of these paved surfaces, providing shade (trees and/or shade structures) or pervious surfaces mitigate the heat absorption quality of dark pavement. The City encourages developers to work with staff to apply best management practices to mitigate urban heat island effects, reduce energy consumption and work towards community resiliency. In the arid southwest, water is a critical resource being addressed through a number of different applications. In 2009, Mayor and Council adopted a Commercial Rainwater Harvesting Ordinance and amended the landscape bufferyard ordinance changing the required number of trees in parking lots. Both ordinances address not only efficiency in water resources, but also human health and mitigation of urban heat islands. In 2008, the city's Transportation Dept. approved curb cut standards to allow street drainage to flow into planting basins next to residential roadways; and in 2013 approved an Active Guidelines Policy for Green Streets that includes green infrastructure/low impact development practices. An additional benefit of green infrastructure and planting of shade trees is improving air quality through absorption of air particulates via the tree leaves and improving stormwater quality in the first flush. Tucson Water has been offering rebates and incentives for high efficiency toilets and rainwater harvesting. 1. Relevant Policy/Ordinance: a. General Service Architecture and Engineering Division, Design and Construction Standards, Division 7: Thermo and Moisture Protection b. Rainwater Harvesting Ordinance (No. 10957) and associated Development Standards (10-03.00) c. Department of Transportation: Landscape Policy for curb cuts; Active Practice Guidelines for Landscape Design; Active Practice Guidelines for Green Streets d. Plan Tucson Policies i. Energy & Climate Readiness 1) EC3: Reduce the urban heat island effect by minimizing heat generation and retention from the built environment using a range of strategies. 2) EC9: Assess and address the vulnerability of the community's health and safety, economy, and natural resources to climate change, and develop assurances that vulnerable and disadvantaged populations are not disproportionately impacted by climate change. ii. Water Resources: 1) WR2: Expand the use of alternative sources of water for potable and non-potable uses, including rainwater, gray water, reclaimed water, effluent, and stormwater. 2) WR6: Integrate land use and water resources planning. 3) WR8: Integrate the use of green infrastructure and low impact development for stormwater management in public and private development and redevelopment projects. iii. Green Infrastructure: 1) GI1: encourage green infrastructure and low impact development techniques for stormwater management in public and private new development and redevelopment, and in roadway projects. 2) GI4: Expand and maintain a healthy, drought-tolerant, low-water use tree canopy and urban forest to provide ecosystem services, mitigate the urban heat island and improve the attractiveness of neighborhoods and the city as a whole and; 3) GI6: Protect, restore, enhance, and manage trees for their long-term health, including providing guidance on proper planting, care and maintenance. 2. Targets in the U.S. Mayors Climate Protection Agreement applicable to this site include: C.5. Make energy efficiency a priority through building code improvements, retrofitting city facilities with energy efficient lighting and urging employees to conserve energy and save money; C.7. Practice and promote sustainable building practices using the U.S. Green building Council's LEED program or a similar system; C.10. Maintain healthy urban forests; promote tree planting to increase shading and to absorb CO2 The following conditions are requested if outdoor modification are made for this project: 1. If roof modifications or improvements are proposed, building structures shall include roofing material certified as a cool roof by the Cool Roof Rating Council or Energy Star rated per the Environmental Protection Agency; solar panels are an acceptable alternative. 2. If paving is replaced, repaved, and/or increased, paving area to be light colored vehicular paving materials, such as concrete or cool paving coating over asphaltic surfaces. Porous paving or porous pavers would also be an acceptable alternative. 3. Preserve all matures as much as possible. If mature trees cannot be preserved in place and need to be removed, to replace the removed tree(s) at a ratio of three (3) trees for every one (1) tree removed, minimum 15-gallon size trees, designed with water harvesting basins to capture surface run-off, and provide temporary irrigation to the newly planted trees for a minimum of 3 years. Thank you for this opportunity to review the project. |

The request is to allow a women’s homeless shelter in a residential neighborhood just north of downtown Tucson. Based upon the PDP and aerial photos, there appear to be at least 3 structures on the property that could be used as housing; neither the PDP nor other provided information states how many homeless people would potentially be served by the proposed facility. The location is close to downtown Tucson and a number of SunTran bus lines, making it easy to access on foot or using public transit. Pima County Development Services Department, Planning Division has no opposition to the proposed homeless shelter facility Special Exception.
