| 01/21/2026 | Residential Zoning | REQUIRES RESUBMIT | PDSD TRANSMITTAL FROM: Jeffrey W. Cassidy, Planner Planning & Development Services Department – Current Zoning Review Section PROJECT: TC-RES-0126-00116 – Residential Building – Add 2-foot metal screen to top of existing approximate 5-foot block wall 4031 E 2ND ST TUCSON, AZ 85711 (R-1 Zoning) Site Plan Review – 1st Review TRANSMITTAL DATE: January 21, 2026 This site is in the R-1 Residence Zone (UDC 4.7.8). A single-family residence is permitted use in this zone (Table 4.8-2) subject to Use Specific Standards 4.9.7.B.5 - .9 for 1 unit; 4.9.7.B.1 - .9, & .11 for 2 units (min. 10,000 sq ft lot size required). Plan review for the above referenced wall height extension 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: No site plan was provided. Provide a site plan that meets the requirements show in the plot plan example at the following link: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/Departments/Planning-Development-Services/Permits/Plan-Examples/Plot-Plan-Example Specifically: A. Draw, label and dimension everything that exists on the property to a scalable drawing graphic (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. B. Refer to Pima County’s website https://gis.pima.gov/maps/detail.cfm?&parcel=126051400 to locate and provide the parcel number, legal description, subdivision name, book and page numbers, township-section and range, sequence number on the plot plan. C. Draw, label and dimension all property lines, (provide property line lengths) and to be reflective of information on Pima County’s website. Refer to Pima County’s website https://onbase.pima.gov/publicaccess/DS_NextGen_Single/etc/cq/results.html?cqid=240&OBKey__552_1=06095 . The math of the property line lengths will produce the total parcel square footage. 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. Draw, label and dimension the principal residence graphic to be representative of that via Pima County’s website (property record card) https://www.asr.pima.gov/ParcelData/prc/12605/1400.pdf . Include any unpermitted additions, modifications and label. E. Draw and label E 2nd St. F. Provide zoning labels on all four sides of this parcel (including this parcel, R-1). G. Provide missing site plan scale and corresponding graphic scale and north arrow. 2. COMMENT: As currently shown in the fence elevation drawing, the proposed fence is 6’-8” (80”) from finish grade. Per 6.6.2.I (UDC), “The maximum height of a wall or fence within a perimeter yard shall be 6’-0”; however, the wall or fence may be higher than 6’-0”, but no higher than 10’-0”, if: (See Figure 6.6.1-A, Height of Wall or Fence within a Side or Rear Perimeter Yard.) “. A Design Development Option (or DDO) affords an attempt to seek relief from the height requirements. This information is linked here: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/Departments/Planning-Development-Services/Planning-Zoning-Applications/Zoning-Administration#section- 3 To submit a DDO application, apply for a new sub-record under this permit at TDC Online. To get this specific review scheduled and if you have questions about the DDO application or process please contact Mark Castro at Mark.Castro@tucsonaz.gov or Georgia Pennington at Georgia.Pennington@tucsonaz.gov . Zoning cannot approve the zoning review portion of the permit until the DDO has been approved. https://www.tucsonaz.gov/files/sharedassets/public/v/2/pdsd/documents/tdc-faq/new-pdfs/sub-records.pdf See below for more information on the DDO process. It’s also worth noting the City of Tucson is in the process of pursuing adjusting the maximum height to 7’-0” but this will not be approved until sometime later this year. It may be worth considering holding off until that gets updated. However, this is not a guarantee. 3. COMMENT: Additional comments may be forthcoming on the next review based on responses to Zoning and other the PDSD reviewer comments. DDO application and requirements can be found at: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/Departments/Planning-Development-Services/Planning-Zoning-Applications/Zoning-Administration .
