This letter reflects comments to be addressed.

| 05/14/2026 | Residential Zoning | REQUIRES RESUBMIT | PDSD TRANSMITTAL FROM: Roxanne Johnston Planner PROJECT: TC-RES-0526-02332 1101 E Roger Rd., Tucson, AZ 85719 Triplex Conversion to Fourplex (1st Review) TRANSMITTAL DATE: 05/14/2026 This site is located within the R-2 Zone (UDC 4.7.9). A single-family residence is a permitted use in this zone (Table 4.8-2) subject to Use Specific Standards 4.9.7.B.6, .9, & .10. RESUBMITTAL OF THE FOLLOWING IS REQUIRED: Correct plans, as noted in the comments below, along with a response letter indicating how all Site Zoning comments were addressed. 1. Only one page has been submitted which is insufficient for a review. Please provide construction plans and a site plan that meets the requirements show in in the Full plot plan example at https://www.tucsonaz.gov/Departments/Planning-Development-Services/Permits/Plan-Examples/Site-Plan-Examples . 2. Adding another residential unit, even within an existing building, could trigger features that will need to be added to the lot, including landscaping, possibly parking, and required compliance with the 2017 ICC A117.1 Sections 402 and 403 and the City of Tucson Inclusive Home Design Ordinance (addressed by Residential Engineering). Landscaping: To create a landscape plan, here is the link to the directions and requirements: https://middle-housing-cotgis.hub.arcgis.com/pages/Residential-Landscaping-Code . Parking: If onsite parking is to be added, only 400 sf for parking may be proposed within the front yard setback. Parking will need to be addressed on the site plan. The property is eligible for a parking waiver, ( https://middle-housing-cotgis.hub.arcgis.com/pages/Parking-Waiver-Eligibility ). One or more parking spaces may be waived by labeling the project as “Middle Housing” on the site plan and by using language on the site plan something similar to the following: "No new onsite parking is provided per the proximity of the site to the public transit stop at _________ and or/bicycle route along_____ as allowed by Middle Housing Standards." The Site Zoning reviewer will verify eligibility so no extra steps and review time will be required for the waiver. 3. Additional comments may be forthcoming depending on responses to zoning review comments and plans submitted for the next review. If you have any questions about this transmittal, please contact Roxanne Johnston at roxanne.johnston@tucsonaz.gov . |
