| 03/05/2026 | Residential Zoning | REQUIRES RESUBMIT | PDSD TRANSMITTAL FROM: Jeffrey W. Cassidy, Planner Planning & Development Services Department – Current Zoning Review Section PROJECT: TC-RES-0226-00773 Residential Building – Detached Carport 2715 E ADAMS ST TUCSON, AZ 85716 (R-1 Zoning) Site Plan Review – 1st Review TRANSMITTAL DATE: March 05, 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 detached carport 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: Per TABLE 6.3-2.A of the UDC (referenced below), the perimeter yard setback(s) along the west property line(s) is 5’-0”. Currently, the proposed design of the carport depicts a 1’-9” distance from the property line. There are two options in seeking relief from the setback standard: A. 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 west 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 structure 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:__________________________ B. 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.
