Carport Review

1. Any structure placed in the 3-foot fire separation distance from the neighboring property line requires not less than one-hour fire-resistive construction for reducing fire spread across the property line, R302.1(City of Tucson Amended). Fire rated materials are found in IBC Table 721.1(2), Items 15-1.1 to 16-1.3.
2. Show the (carport roof) structure with one-hour fire-resistive wall construction parallel with the neighboring property line in compliance with IBC Table 721.1(2) or provide a clear 3’ fire separation distance between the property line and the structure. This construction or separation is required from ground to roof and from end to end of the roof which resists fire spread across the property line.
3. Roof projections extending into the 3-foot fire separation distance to the neighboring property line require not less than one-hour fire-resistive construction on the underside, R302.1 (City of Tucson Amended). The fire protected overhang may not extend closer than 24” from the property line. The open sided carport cannot be closer than 24” to the property line on the West side without fire-resistive construction.

4. Specify method of transferring lateral forces from the roof diaphragm to the supporting structural elements, R801.2. Show roof sheathing with edge fastening to (2x) structural framing members, Table R602.3 (1).

5. Limit cantilevered overhang to 24”, or provide engineered design, R802.7.1. See pages 5, 6 & 8.

6. Provide manufacturer’s calculations and data for pre-engineered trusses dated and wet-sealed by an engineer who is registered in Arizona, R106.1. Show truss calculations with cross-reference to the plans, R802.10.2.

7. Show the untreated exterior posts above finished grade or metal post base with 1” space above concrete, R317.1.4 exception 1


Shade Structure:

8. Show the untreated exterior posts above finished grade or metal post base with 1” space above concrete, R317.1.4 exception 1
9. Specify method of transferring lateral forces from the roof diaphragm to the supporting structural elements, R801.2. Show roof sheathing with edge fastening to (2x) structural framing members, Table R602.3 (1).

Attached Porch (non-load bearing structure):
10. Specify method of transferring lateral forces from the roof diaphragm to the supporting structural elements, R801.2. Show roof sheathing with edge fastening to (2x) structural framing members, Table R602.3 (1). >> The 2x rafters are spaced inconsistently and don’t appear to provide the support necessary for the required edge fastening of the roof covering.
11. Show the sun/rain blocking wall attached to support structure with a foundation, minimum 12x12.

06/19/2024 Site Zoning REQUIRES RESUBMIT FROM: PDSD Zoning Review Section

PROJECT: TC-RES-0324-01716 - CE-VIO0324-01021
9625 E COLETTE ST. – R-1
Detached 3 Car Carport, Patio Roof Extension, Detached Metal Shade Structure & Detached Metal Shed – built without permit (1st Review)

TRANSMITTAL DATE: June 19, 2024

COMMENTS: Please resubmit revised drawings along with a detailed response letter, which states how all Zoning Review Section comments were addressed.

This site is located in the R-1 zone (UDC 4.7.8). A single-family residence (SFR) is a permitted use in this zone (Table 4.8-2). See Use-Specific Standards 4.9.7.B.5 - 9.

1. The plans for all the above referenced structures shall be submitted as a single multi-page PDF file.

2. Provide a residential plot plan that meets the requirements found at: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/Departments/Planning-Development-Services/Building-Safety/Plan-Examples/Plot-Plan-Example, to include but not limited to:
a. Provide a lot coverage calculation that meets the requirements of UDC Article 6.4.3 and the example shown on the Residential Plot Plan Requirements.
b. Provide the property dimension for the south property line.
c. Provide perimeter yard setback dimensions from the posts supporting the proposed carport to the west property line, UDC Article 6.4.5.B.2.

3. Based on the typical cross section for a 50’ wide street right-of-way found on Paving Plan I-77-023, found at: https://maps-and-records.tucsonaz.gov/construction-plans/details/I-77-023, the distance from the face of curb to the property, 9’-0”. is not correct and should be a total of 10’, 5’ to the sidewalk, with a 4’ sidewalk and 1’ to the south property line. Show the 1’ from back of sidewalk to property line.

4. Clearly show that the metal shed is to be relocated, i.e. the new location should be drawn darker/heavier line weights that the existing location with the existing location with a lighter dashed line.

5. Per UDC Article 6.6.3.C Detached accessory buildings, including accessory dwelling units, are not permitted in the buildable area extending the full width of the lot between the principal building and the front street lot line, except for shade structures or carports not over 400 square feet in floor area, terraces and steps not over three feet high above the natural grade, paved areas, and fences or walls. That said the proposed 448 SF carport exceeds the allowed 400 SF and one of two things will be required: Attached the carport to the main dwelling with a roofed structure, minimum 5’-0” wide, that can support a 20 lb. live load, or a Board of Adjustment for Variance will need to be submitted and approved.

6. Per UDC Article 6.6.3.D accessory structures, except for accessory dwelling units, shall not exceed 12 feet in height, unless attached to a principal structure. Per UDC Article 6.4.5.A Measurement of Building Height, building height is the vertical distance measured from the design grade elevation to the highest point of a flat roof; to the deck line of a mansard roof; or to the middle (between the eave and ridge ) of the highest gable of a pitched or hipped roof. Provide a dimension from design grade to the midpoint of roof on the building elevations. If the height exceeds the allowed 12’-0” one of two things will be required: Attached the carport to the main dwelling with a roofed structure, minimum 5’-0” wide, that can support a 20 lb. live load, or include the carport in the Board of Adjustment.

7. Until comment 3 is addressed Zoning cannot verify what the proposed street perimeter yard is from the carport to the street property line.

Depending on how comments 5 & 6 are addressed will determine what process is required. If the carport is attached to the existing dwelling as described above the following comments will require a Design Development Option (DDO) will need to be submitted and approved prior to approval of this plan. If you elect to leave the carport as shown on this plan a Board of Adjustment for Variance will need to be submitted and approved prior to approval of this plan.

8. Per UDC Article 6.4.5.C.1.a For single-family and duplex development , the minimum required front street perimeter yard is 20 feet measured from the street property line, based on the current drawings the proposed street permit yard setback is 2’-6”.

9. Per UDC Table 6.3-2.A Residential Use to a Residential Zone the required perimeter yard setback from the proposed carport to the west property line is the greater of six (6) feet, or two-thirds (2/3) the height of the structure’s wall facing each interior property line. Based on a wall height less than 9’-0” the minimum required setback is 6’-0”, proposed setback is unknown at this time. As it does not appear that the carport runs parallel to the west property line UDC Article 6.4.5.B.5 may apply. 6.4.5.B.5 states “Where an unbroken section of a wall or a building is not parallel with the lot line , the required perimeter yard may be applied to the average width; however, such perimeter yard shall not be narrower at any point than half the required width, nor narrower at any point than three feet. (See Figure 6.4.5-A.).

A Design Development Option (DDO) must be submitted and approved to reduce the required setback. DDO application and requirements can be found at: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/Departments/Planning-Development-Services/Planning-Zoning-Applications/Zoning-Administration. If you have questions about the DDO application or process please contact Wyatt Berger at Wyatt.Berger@tucsonaz.gov or Georgia Pennington at Georgia.Pennington@tucsonaz.gov.

A Board of Adjustment for Variance must be submitted and approved. Board of Adjustment application/requirements can be found at: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/Departments/Planning-Development-Services/Planning-Zoning-Applications/Zoning-Administration. Contact for the Board of Adjustment is Mark Castro at Mark.Castro@tucsonaz.gov.
