Provide compliance with R302.1 (City of Tucson Amended) by protecting the structure placed within 3 feet of the (west) property line in compliance with IBC Table 721.1(2). Include a one hour rated wall below the roof edge with foundation along the full length of structure near the adjacent parcel. The fire spread control is for preventing the rapid movement of fire to the adjacent property caused by items contained under the protective structure. Although the structure may not be highly flammable it can direct the fire to roof edges and across the property line if a barrier is not included.

Perimeter yard setbacks are based on a wall height measurement from design grade to the highest point of the exterior wall UDC Article 6.4.5.B & Figure 6.4.5-A. Per UDC Article 6.4.5.B.2 for a carport type structure the height measurement is from design grade to the top of beam supporting the roof of the carport. As elevation drawings were not provided with dimensions from design grade to top of beam, at its highest point, Zoning cannot determine the required perimeter yard setback from the proposed carport to the north property line. The minimum setback is the greater of ten (10) feet, or three-quarters (3/4) the height of the structure’s wall facing each interior property line (Table 6.3-2. A). At a minimum a neighbors setback waiver, UDC Article 6.6.2.D, will be required for the reduced 1’-0” perimeter yard setback.
