PROJECT: T19CM05078- New Building (Commercial - Hospital)
Building Plan Review (1st Review) Northwest Medical Center
2200 S. Houghton Road - PAD 25 Zoning - Related to DP19-0164

TRANSMITTAL DATE: August 13, 2019

DUE DATE: August 20, 2019

COMMENTS: Please resubmit revised drawings and any redlined plans along with a detailed response letter, which states how all Zoning Review Section comments were addressed.


1. COMMENT: Zoning has done a cursory review of the building plans. Prior to a more comprehensive review by zoning the DP must be reviewed and approved prior to zoning approval of the building plans. While the cursory review did yield an indication that the building plans are consistent with what has been proposed and drawn on the DP, zoning cannot approve the building plans at this time.

In addition, while the building are consistent as it relates to the zoning review purview (as noted above) zoning cannot approve the building plans until the Commercial Plans reviewer(s) have approved the building plans.


2. COMMENT: Zoning will review the building plans on the next submittal to assure consistency with the DP. If any changes are necessary to the building plans due to plan review comments that affect zoning requirements the DP will have to be revised to reflect the changes. Once the DP is approved by all reviewers and the building plans are approved by the Commercial Plans reviewers zoning can approve the building plans.

If you have any questions about this transmittal, Contact David Rivera on Tuesday or Wednesday at (520) 837-4957 or by email David.Rivera@tucsonaz.gov or contact Steve Shields, (520) 837-4956 or Steve.Shields@tucsonaz.gov
