| 05/20/2026 | Residential Zoning | REQUIRES RESUBMIT | PDSD TRANSMITTAL FROM: Jeffrey W. Cassidy, Planner Planning & Development Services Department – Current Zoning Review Section PROJECT: T22CM01358 – Residential Building – Two Bedroom and Bathroom Addition 616 E 5TH ST TUCSON, AZ 85705 (HR-2 Zoning) Site Plan Review – 3rd Review TRANSMITTAL DATE: May 20, 2026 The City's Unified Development Code (UDC) (Section 1.4.1.C) establishes that before the City issues any approvals or permits; we must confirm that a site complies with UDC standards. Therefore, as part of permit reviews, we review a site's permit history and compare it to aerial photography to confirm that unpermitted work has not occurred. In many cases, this does mean that a homeowner must apply for permits for unpermitted work before we can approve any new work on that site. Plan review for the above referenced two bedroom and bathroom addition has been completed. This letter reflects comments to be addressed. For facilitating a shorter back check time, please provide updated plans and calculations with a written response to each of the notated items indicating action taken. Do not cloud the changes made for comment updates; revisions are processed if changes occur after the permit is issued. 1. COMMENT: Zoning has completed this review with a few comments but cannot approve until the until the Historic reviewer comments are met and completed (Refer to Historic Reviewer Comments for further direction). 2. COMMENT: No site plan was provided. A. Draw, label and dimension everything that exists on the property to a scalable drawing graphic (examples include the principal residence, porches, breezeways, sidewalks, driveways, parking spots, walls, fences, ramada, shed, carport, shade sail, cistern, pool, guest house, sleeping quarters, accessory dwelling unit) and provide dimensions of any structure as it relates to nearby structures and property lines and provide the heights (measured from above finish grade to top of wall, etc.) of those structures that run parallel-perpendicular to any nearby adjacent property lines. Provide heights at various locations along the fence/wall if applicable. 1) Draw, dimension and label all vehicle maneuvering area (parking, driveway, backup) and include in lot coverage table. 2) Draw, label and dimension carport/ramada structure and provide dimensions from each side of the structure to the adjacent property lines. B. Provide the missing legal description: TUCSON E61.60' LOTS 2 & 3 BLK 64. C. Provide the missing east-west property line lengths (61.60’) and north-south property line lengths (132’) and recalculate lot size and lot coverage table accordingly. Be aware that some easements may require referring to the title report of the property (procure at title company if not already in possession. For example, this is especially significant in avoiding building in a utility easement where the provider may need regular access to service. Any need to build within the easement would then require written approval from the utility provider within that easement. D. As a result of not producing a site plan without property line lengths, the lot coverage calculation table is not correct. Per UDC Article 6.4.3.C.1.a roofed areas, porches, open on at least one side are NOT included in the calculation and per UDC Article 6.4.3.B.3.b Vehicular use areas, measured within the outside edges of any area allocated to vehicle use, whether improved or unimproved, are included in the lot coverage. Calculate (measure) square footage of every enclosed (NOT open structures like a porch, ramada, carport) structure on site and all vehicular use area (driveway, parking, turnaround, backup) and input into lot coverage calculation table. A carport would be calculated under vehicular use area. These separate ‘category numbers are added together and divided by the total parcel square footage to produce the lot coverage percentage that demonstrates compliance (or not). E. Provide HR-2 zoning labels on all four sides of this parcel. F. Provide site plan scale, corresponding graphic scale and north arrow on site plan. G. The scale noted does not match the plan graphics on the site. Update the graphics to match the scale noted or vice-versa. H. Provide a setback table that lists the following; Front yard setback = 20’-0” (north or east property line, owners choice), Side yard setback = 10’-0” (north or east property line, owners choice), south and west property lines = 5’-0”. 3. COMMENT: Zoning has acknowledged this property has a structure on-site with a with ‘contributing status’ with the National Register of Historic Places and advises the owner to contact the State Historic Preservation Office (HPO) to determine if this project will impact the status. Contact https://azstateparks.com/SHPO for more information. This comment is purely made as a courtesy as there may be tax implications. No action is required and is at the discretion of the owner. 4. COMMENT: Additional comments may be forthcoming on the next review based on responses to Zoning and other PDSD reviewer comments. THE FOLLOWING IS REQUIRED: 1. Corrected building permit 2. Provide a detailed response letter (clarification narrative) with your submittal that clearly shows how you have addressed all Zoning comments. 3. Resubmit ALL documents associated with this permit (all drawings in sheet index) To resubmit visit Tucson Development Center at https://tdc-online.tucsonaz.gov/#/home Instructions for resubmittal - https://www.tucsonaz.gov/files/sharedassets/public/v/1/pdsd/documents/tdc-faq/old-pdfs/double-old/resubmittals.pdf If you have any questions about this transmittal, please contact jeffrey.cassidy@tucsonaz.gov The Unified Development Code (UDC) can be found at: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/Departments/Planning-Development-Services/Codes/Zoning-Code |
