a. The plot plan shall be drawn to an engineering scale, i.e. 1” = 10’, 1” = 20’.
b. Provide the property dimensions on the plot plan.
c. Provide the owners name on the plot plan.
d. Provide the legal description, LOS RANCHITOS NUMBER 6 E2 N65' S140' &

2. It is not clear if the 2’-0” setback from the proposed carport to the south property is measured from the roof line or the post supporting the carport. Per UDC Article 6.4.5.B.2 the setback for a carport structure is measured from the post supporting the structure as long as the roof overhang is not more than 2’-0”.

COMMENTS: the following comments are relative to an application for a Design Development Option (DDO) (UDC 3.11.1).
Perimeter yard setbacks are based on a measurement from design grade to the highest point of the exterior wall UDC Article 6.4.5.B & Figure 6.4.5-A.

The minimum setback is the greater of ten (10) feet, or three-quarters (3/4) the height of the structure’s wall facing each interior property line (Table 6.3-3.A).
3. Based on a wall height of less than 13’-4” the required perimeter yard setback from the post supporting the proposed carport to the south property line is 10’-0”, proposed setback is 2’-0”. 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/files/pdsd/forms/DDO_for_Setback_and_Height_UDC_8.11.20.pdf. 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.
