| 04/02/2026 | Residential Zoning | REQUIRES RESUBMIT | PDSD TRANSMITTAL FROM: Jeffrey W. Cassidy, Planner Planning & Development Services Department – Current Zoning Review Section PROJECT: TC-RES-0126-00152 – Residential Building – Metal Building 6035 E BAKER ST TUCSON, AZ 85711 (R-1 Zoning) Site Plan Review – 1st Review TRANSMITTAL DATE: April 02, 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). The City's Unified Development Code (UDC) (Section 1.4.1.C) establishes that before the City issues any approvals or permits; we must confirm that a site complies with UDC standards. Therefore, as part of permit reviews, we review a site's permit history and compare it to aerial photography to confirm that unpermitted work has not occurred. In many cases, this does mean that a homeowner must apply for permits for unpermitted work before we can approve any new work on that site. Plan review for the above referenced metal building 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: The site plan provided is incomplete. Provide a site plan that meets the requirements show in the plot plan example at the following link: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/files/sharedassets/public/v/2/pdsd/documents/plan-samples/basic-site-plan_feb2026.pdf Specifically: A. Draw, label and dimension everything that exists on the property to a scalable drawing graphic (examples include the 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. Draw, label and dimension diameter of existing cistern. Indicate height and dimension from east property line. If there are more cisterns add those to the site plan. B. Add missing legal description WILMOT DESERT ESTATES RESUB LOTS 25 26 27 & 28 LOT 10 BLK 1. C. Provide R-1 zoning labels on all four sides of this parcel (including this parcel). 2. COMMENT: After reviewing the property documentation history in Property Research Online (PRO), zoning could not verify any permit documentation for the existing cistern(s) nor the demolition of the greenhouse. Zoning will not be able to approve the permit application until the permit information is provided. If permit documentation cannot be provided, the cistern(s) and greenhouse demolition may be included as a part of this permit application. Indicate as much on the comment response letter and site plan (or separate demolition site plan sheet) “existing greenhouse to be removed” depicting the size. Per TABLE 6.3-2.A of the UDC (referenced below), the perimeter yard setback(s) along the east property line is 5’-0”. Depending on how far the existing cistern sit off the east property line, there are four options: A. Move the cistern out of the setback(s) and easements (if applicable). B. Remove the cistern. C. Distance is 1’-0” or more or 1-0” OR Less (encroaching in setback): Secure a neighbor setback waiver (provided below) signed and dated by the property owner(s) to the east as this can be the easiest way to resolve this requirement: (Neighbor Waiver Sample – COPY AND PASTE ALL WAIVERS ONTO SITE PLAN EXACTLY AS SHOWN BELOW): My Name is __________________ and I am the owner of the property located at ________________________. I have reviewed the site plan, and I have no objection to cistern being located or constructed ______ feet from the property line as depicted on the site plan. Signature: _______________________ Date:___________________________ Mi hombre es ________________ y yo soy el dueño de la propiedad ubicada en la _____________________. He revisado el plan y no tengo ninguna objeción a que estructura se encuentra o construye ____________ desde la línea de propiedad, como se muestra en el plan. Firma: _________________________Fecha:__________________________ D. Distance is 1’-0” or more from property line AND unable to obtain neighbor waiver: If unsuccessful in the attempt to retrieve the neighbor waiver, there is a Design Development Option (or DDO) which affords an attempt to seek relief from the setback requirements. Know this is an extra 6-week review and the neighbors within 100’-0” are made aware of this attempt to seek relief from being in the setback. Zoning will not be able to approve the permit application until the DDO is approved.
