SECTION 2-06.0.0: DEVELOPMENT PACKAGE (TENTATIVE PLATS AND SITE PLANS)


2-06.4.9.Q - Provide the square footage and the height of each commercial, industrial, or business structure and the specific use proposed within the footprint of the building(s).

1. COMMENT: 2-06.4.9.Q – The revision letter indicates that a 8’ high corrugated metal fence is proposed to replace an existing 8’ chain-link fence.

If a new 8’ corrugated metal fence were to be proposed, it would not meet UDC Section 6.6.2.I-J, which states:

I. The maximum of a wall or fence within a shall be six feet; however, the wall or fence may be higher than six feet, but no higher than ten feet, if: (See Figure 6.6.1-A, Height of Wall or Fence within a Side or Rear .)
1. At least 75% of the area above six feet in height is left unobstructed and open through the use of architectural elements, such as arches, columns, or wrought iron;
2. Part of, or located on top of, a retaining wall no higher than ten feet measured from and no higher than six feet measured from the top of the retaining portion of the wall;
3. A greater height is required through the rezoning process or the special exception process; or,
4. A greater height is required by a specific standard.
J. In nonresidential , walls or fences, as permitted in Section 6.6.2.I above, may exceed the height standards, provided the wall or fence complies with the standards applicable to on the ;

A corrugated metal fence does not meet the 75% unobstructed standard indicated in 6.6.2.1.1, in which case it could be over 6’ but would have to abide by the O-3 zoning perimeter yard standards, which are 10’ or ¾ of the wall height.

Alternatively, you could apply for a Design Development Option (DDO) variance for perimeter fence above 6’. Reach out to Georgia Pennington at georgia.pennington@tucsonaz.gov or 520-837-6311 for an application and more information about the DDO process.
