01/16/2025 Site Zoning REQUIRES RESUBMIT PDSD TRANSMITTAL

FROM:
Fernando Garcia
Planning & Development Services Department – Zoning Review Section

PROJECT:
TC-COM-1224-02365 – Commercial Building
536 W Palmdale St, Tucson, 85714
Plan Review (1st Review)

TRANSMITTAL DATE: January 14, 2025

This site is zoned C-2 (UDC Section 4.7.21). “Day care” is a permitted use in the C-2 zone.

1. (Comment) Clarify whether this submittal is for a home occupation day care use. If so, the structure must primarily function as a family dwelling and the home occupation is clearly secondary to the residential use of the dwelling.

If so, clarify the use of the property as “Residential Use Group – Home Occupation (Day Care) subject to use-specific standard 4.9.7.D.2.a.”

Confirm that the home occupation day care use abides by UDC Section 4.9.7.D.2.a.

2. (Comment) If the proposed use does, or cannot abide, by the home occupation day care standards, then it would be instead categorized as a “Commercial Services Use Group – Day Care” use.

No existing and approved development package, permit, or certificate of occupancy was found for a “Day Care” use. A permit for a childcare facility from 2021 was never completed and approved. As such, this submission counts as a change of use on a non-conforming site. A change of use may typically require the site to come into compliance with current development standards.

Per UDC Table 7.4.4-1, a “Commercial Services Use Group - Day Care” use requires 1 motor vehicle parking space per 300 sf of gross floor area (GFA). Based upon 1,248 sf, four parking spaces are required, of which one must be ADA van accessible.

Draw, dimension, and label the parking spaces on the site plan and provide a motor vehicle calculations table. The standard size of a motor vehicle parking space is 8.5’ x 18’. Parking spaces must be located on site.

3. (Comment) As a note, any reconfiguration of exterior areas of the site may require a development package.

4. (Comment) Provide a different line type to indicate the existing chain-link fence.

5. (Comment) On the site plan, it appears that the existing chain-link fence is located outside of the property lines within the right-of-way. A right-of-way permit is required to erect a fence or wall within the right-of-way. None could be found for this fence.

6. (Comment) Further comments may be forthcoming upon resubmittal.

RESUBMITTAL OF THE FOLLOWING IS REQUIRED: ROW permit for fence within the right-of-way. Resubmittal of revised plans.

If you have any questions about this transmittal, please contact Fernando L. Garcia at fernando.garcia2@tucsonaz.gov.
