As the proposed development is a new dwelling (ADU, SFR, Duplex, Etc), Per the City of Tucson Inclusive Home Design Ordinance: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/files/sharedassets/public/v/1/city-services/planning-development-services/documents/inclusivehomedesignordinance.pdf, all new dwellings and units have a requirement to provide an “accessible route from public and common areas, including, but not limited to, a driveway or public street or sidewalk”. Draw, dimension, and label an accessible route from the driveway, sidewalk, or street to an accessible entrance.
a. Refer to Technical Standards Manual Section 7-01.4.3 for sidewalk/pathway specifications including the minimum 4ft-width and composition minimums.

04/30/2026 Residential Zoning REQUIRES RESUBMIT PDSD TRANSMITTAL

FROM: Claire Leighou, Planner

PROJECT: TC-MDP-0426-00266

1705 W VALDEZ CT

New 2 story duplex model plan (1st Review)

TRANSMITTAL DATE: 4/30/26

Please resubmit revised drawings with a detailed response letter stating how all Zoning Review Section comments were addressed.

This site is located in the R-1 zone (UDC 4.7.8). Middle housing projects, including duplexes, are permitted in this zone.

Comment 1: Please include landscaping details on the site plan upon next submittal.

Per Middle Housing Ordinance HB2721, new developments require 1 new tree per 1,000 SF of floor area. Since the combined square footage of the two units is 2,222 SF, three (3) new trees would be required. Fifty percent of these (2) should be placed in the front yard setback.

Gound cover is also a requirement for new landscaping. To calculate the minimum square footage, take the lot width (72’ 11”) minus driveway width, and multiply that by 5. Please dimension and label this area on the site plan.

Comment 2: Per the City of Tucson Inclusive Home Design Ordinance (https://www.tucsonaz.gov/files/sharedassets/public/v/1/city-services/planning-development-services/documents/inclusivehomedesignordinance.pdf), all new dwellings have a requirement to provide an “accessible route from public and common areas, including, but not limited to, a driveway or public street or sidewalk”. Please draw, dimension, and label an accessible route from the driveway (or apron), sidewalk, or street to an accessible entrance. Ensure the route meets accessibility standards as articulated in Sections 402-404 of the ADA Accessibility Standards (https://www.access-board.gov/ada/chapter/ch04/). See TSM 7-01.4.3 for specifications, including slope and composition materials.

Comment 3: The lot coverage calculations provided are incorrect. The total project SF appears to be too high. Please double-check the figures listed for unit size, project square feet, and lot square feet, and provide a new total lot coverage percentage.
