09/11/2026 Site Zoning REQUIRES RESUBMIT PDSD TRANSMITTAL

FROM:
Jeffrey W. Cassidy, Planner I
Planning & Development Services Department – Current Zoning Review Section, Commercial

PROJECT:
TC-COM-0826-01363 – Commercial – Conversion of residence to commercial vanilla shell for commercial food service use
626 N 6TH AV Unit 1 TUCSON, AZ 85705 (HC-1 Zoning)
Commercial Building Plan Review – 1st Review

TRANSMITTAL DATE:
September 11, 2026

1. COMMENT: Zoning has completed its review of the submitted building plan set and cross-referenced it against the associated Development Package. However, final approval of Commercial Permit TC-COM-0826-01363 cannot be granted until the Development Package TD-DEV-0926-00236 has received full approval and has been issued. Per UDC §3.3.3.G, building permits for sites requiring a Development Package may not be issued prior to DP approval, as the building plans must be consistent with an approved site plan. Please resubmit for final approval once the Development Package has been approved and issued by all applicable reviewers. For final approval, ensure the building plans match the approved DP regarding footprint, proposed height, and square footage, and that the downspout and structure drainage systems shown in the building plans are consistent with those depicted in the Development Package plan set.

2. COMMENT: Reference the associated development package case number, TD-DEV-0926-00236, adjacent to the title block on each sheet.

3. COMMENT: Zoning has completed this review with four comments but cannot ultimately approve until the until the Historic reviewer comments are met and completed (Refer to Historic Reviewer Comments for further direction).

4. 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.

5. COMMENT: On the T1.1 sheet there are two sets of parking calculations, but it appears the desired is will be Commercial Use Group – Food Service. To avoid confusion, remove the other reference Commercial, 1 / 300 sf and add ‘per use use specific standards 4.9.4. M.1 and 5 and 4.9.13.O’ after the Commercial Use Group – Food Service.

6. COMMENT: Update the ‘parking required’ not to 20 (as opposed the 23 currently noted). Again, per the TP-PRE-0526-00113 pre-application conference zoning reviewer comments, If the minimum parking requirements cannot be met, an Individual Parking Plan is an option to reduce the minimum requirement. Please reach out to Mark Castro at Mark.Castro@tucsonaz.gov if you have questions about the IPP process. This task will require completion prior to approval TD-DEV-0926-00236.

7. COMMENT: Additional comments may be forthcoming on the next review based on responses to Zoning and other PDSD reviewer comments.

RESUBMITTAL OF THE FOLLOWING IS REQUIRED:

8. COMMENT: Corrected commercial building permit.

9. COMMENT: Provide a detailed response letter with your submittal that clearly shows how you have addressed all Zoning comments.
