| 04/23/2026 | Residential Zoning | REQUIRES RESUBMIT | PDSD TRANSMITTAL FROM: Jeffrey W. Cassidy, Planner Planning & Development Services Department – Current Zoning Review Section PROJECT: TC-RES-0326-01045 – Residential Building – CE-VIO0226-00738, Shade structure on the NW edge of property 851 W CALLE MARGARITA TUCSON, AZ 85706 (R-1 Zoning) Site Plan Review – 1st Review TRANSMITTAL DATE: April 23, 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 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 shade structure 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: Currently, the site plan shows the proposed structure to be located 5” from the west property line. Typically, for a detached non-habitable structure, with this proposed offset distance, a simple neighbor waiver would have been an option. Since that neighbor is the same neighbor that submitted the code violation, zoning assumes that will not be an option. As a result, a board of adjustment variance will be required to permit the structure as shown on the site. See variance requirements below. Zoning cannot approve this permit until the Board of Adjustment (B/A) Variance Process is completed and approved. See below for more information on the B/A Variance process. 2. COMMENT: Additional comments may be forthcoming on the next review based on responses to Zoning and other PDSD reviewer comments. 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 RESUBMITTAL OF THE FOLLOWING IS REQUIRED: 1. Corrected building permit 2.
