| 12/22/2020 | ELISA HAMBLIN | ZONING | REVIEW | Completed | Prior comments from John Beall, Entitlements Section Manager, from meeting Sept 2020 REZONING/SPECIAL EXCEPTION PRESUBMITTAL PREAPPLICATION REVIEW CASE NUMBER: T20PRE0120 (9-30-20 1937 N Nancy Rose Blvd) APPLICANT NAME: THE PLANNING CENTER – LEXY WELLOTT PHONE: 623-6146 E-MAIL: LWELLOTT@AZPLANNINGCENTER.COM PROJECT DESCRIPTION & LOCATION: 1937 N. NANCY ROSE BLVD – THE PROPOSED SPECIAL EXCEPTION IS FOR EXPANSION OF EXISTING TUCSON WATER WELL SITE. APPLICABLE PLAN POLICIES: Plan Tucson contains a variety of elements that are categories in four focus areas, including the Social Environment, the Economic Environment, the Natural Environment, and the Built Environment. Each focus area contains specific goals and each element contains specific policies. The site lies within the Neighborhoods with Greater Infill Potential building block where there is potential for new development and redevelopment. These neighborhoods include a mix of such uses as a variety of housing types, grocery stores and other retail and services, public schools, parks and recreational facilities, and multi-modal transportation choices. LT28.1.3 – Improve the appearance of above-ground utilities and structures. LT28.2.12 – Support environmentally sensitive design that protects the integrity of existing neighborhoods, complements adjacent land uses, and enhances the overall function and visual quality of the street, adjacent properties, and the community. Arcadia – Alamo Area Plan (AAAP) Goal: Preserve and protect the integrity of established low-density neighborhoods. Defines the following - Buffering: masonry walls, landscaping to mitigate impact of more intense development to less intense uses. Screening: opaque barrier designed and constructed to conceal uses used for storage, mechanical equipment from street and public view. Design Guidelines – address hours of operation for service; use of enhanced landscaping along public streets such as understory shrubs and ground cover; screen water pumping station with landscaping and minimum 6-foot masonry wall. Applicant to demonstrate compliance with AAAP General Design Guidelines and Policies. ANALYSIS: The proposed Zoning Examiner Special Exception is for an expansion of a Tucson Water well to be located on an approximately 0.19-acre parcel in the R-1 zone district. The R-1 zone district allows for utility distribution through the Zoning Examiner Special Exception Procedure and must be compliant with the use specific standards called out in Section 4.9.11 of the Unified Development Code. The property is an existing City of Tucson well site. It is located within an existing R-1 residential neighborhood. The existing well site fencing appears to have slats in the chain-link fence around the perimeter of the lot / water well site. Fence height is not called out on site plan. The application calls a height of 20-feet but is not identified on the site plan where this height is located, with the setback distance from the adjacent residential zone to the south identified as 10-feet. The policy direction of Plan Tucson and the Arcadia – Alamo Area Plan each have policies that ensure sensitive design to development adjacent to established neighborhoods. A plan amendment is not required. Possible mitigation measures may be required to help buffer the use from the residential properties adjacent to the property, including additional landscaping and screening, masonry walls, increase setbacks for heights greater than 20-feet, and potential dust mitigation. Discuss hours of service for well site. Staff recommends applicant provide a more refined concept plan that indicates a little more clearly the proposed landscape plan and screening for the well site. Be sure to call out on the concept plan, height of all buildings, antennas, and well pump mechanisms, as well as proposed materials. Be sure to look at the Use Specific Standards in Section 4.9.11 of the Unified Development Code (UDC) and if any deviation will be necessary please bring that back to staff at a second Presubmittal meeting if need be.
