Please resubmit revised drawings and any redlined plans along with a detailed response letter, which states how all Zoning Review Section comments were addressed.

1. COMMENT: Per UDC Section 6.3-3.A, the maximum lot coverage for the O3 zone with a residential use is 75%. The lot coverage calculation includes the area of a lot covered by buildings, storage areas, and vehicular use areas.

The Lot Coverage Calculation is referencing a “10,993” number. The lot is 5,872sf. The calculation should be based off the lot size. Correct the calculation to reflect the accurate lot coverage percentage.

2. COMMENT: Per UDC Section 6.3-3.A, the required perimeter yard setbacks in the O-3 zone are the greater of 10’ or ¾ the height of the proposed exterior building wall.

The proposed sleeping quarters encroaches into the required perimeter yard setbacks and will require the approval of a Design Development Option (DDO) before Zoning can approve.

The DDO application and requirements may be retrieved from: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/files/pdsd/forms/2019_DDO_for_Setback_and_Height_UDC.pdf. The completed application shall be submitted as a PDF under assigned permit number TC-RES-0523-05401. Contact Mark.Castro@tucsonaz.gov should you have questions regarding the DDO process.

3. COMMENT: Per UDC Section 6.6.3.E, “The total gross floor area (gfa) of all accessory structures shall not exceed 50% of the gfa of the principal structure.

The lot coverage calculation has “Existing Garage/Utility” listed at 385sf and the proposed Sleeping Quarters addition at 400sf. The principal structure is listed at 1,162 sf.

The accessory structures gfa exceeds that allowable amount per the above Code standard. A Board of Adjustment Variance approval will be needed before Zoning can approve.

4. CLARIFICATION: Show the “Existing Garage/Utility” on the site plan. If the structure is to be demolished, remove square footage from lot coverage calculation, and indicate that the structure is to be demolished on the site plan.

The Sleeping Quarters can be attached to the main structure and would not be counted towards the 50% gfa requirement. Alternately, Accessory Dwelling Units do not count towards the 50% gfa requirement either.
5. COMMENT: If the “Existing Garage/Utility” is to stay, per UDC Section 6.3-3.A ,the required setbacks are 10’ or ¾ the height of the proposed exterior building wall.
