CE-VIO0525-02202. 332 N Citadel Av Tucson, AZ 85748 (R-1 Zoning) Building Plan Review – 2nd Review TRANSMITTAL DATE: August 04, 2025 This site is in the R-1 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. Plan review for the above referenced wall 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. SCOPE OF REVIEW: The scope of this plan review covers zoning, use(s), legal description, adjacent properties, setbacks (building or wall heights), dimensional standards, property permitting history, density (units/lot size), and lot calculation (enclosed building and structure, parking, and driveway versus overall lot size) requirements. All code references are to the Tucson, AZ Unified Development Code. All features were checked only to the extent allowed by the submittals provided. All portions of this project are assumed to meet or will meet other departmental requirements, conditions, and concerns before permit approval. RESUBMITTAL OF THE FOLLOWING IS REQUIRED: Correct the following plot (site) plan and elevation drawings, as noted in the comments below, along with a detailed response letter indicating responses to the review comments. PLANS: 1. COMMENT: The site plan provided is incomplete. a) Provide dimensions from the proposed wall to the north property line. b) Provide dimensions from the proposed wall to the west property line. c) Label 20’-0” front yard setback. d) Provide a full site as the last submittal was cropped off. Provide a site plan that meets the requirements show in the plot plan example at the following link: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/Departments/Planning-Development-Services/Permits/Plan-Examples/Plot-Plan-Example 2. COMMENT: Regarding Wall Height: Per 6.6.2.I of the UDC (referenced below), the maximum height of a wall or fence within a perimeter yard shall be six feet; however, the wall or fence may be higher than six feet, but no higher than ten feet, if: (See Figure 6.6.1-A, Height of Wall or Fence within a Side or Rear Perimeter Yard.) a) At least 75% of the area above six feet in height is left unobstructed and open through the use of architectural elements, such as arches, columns, or wrought iron; b) Part of, or located on top of, a retaining wall no higher than ten feet measured from design grade and no higher than six feet measured from the top of the retaining portion of the wall; c) A greater height is required through the rezoning process or the special exception land use process; or, d) A greater height is required by a specific UDC standard. You have two options: a) Update the design and the respective elevation drawings to reflect 6.6.2.I.a) above. b) Submit for a Design Development Option which affords someone to attempt to seek relief from the wall height requirements. This information is linked here: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/Departments/Planning-Development-Services/Planning-Zoning-Applications/Zoning-Administration#section-3 In order to submit a DDO application, apply for a new sub-record under this permit at TDC Online. https://www.tucsonaz.gov/files/sharedassets/public/v/2/pdsd/documents/tdc-faq/new-pdfs/sub-records.pdf See below for more information on the DDO process. 3. COMMENT: Regarding Perimeter Yard Setback from the North Property Line: As no dimension was provided from the proposed wall to the north property line to determine compliance, review the following for applicability. Per TABLE 6.3-2.A of the UDC (referenced below), the perimeter yard setback along the north property line is 6’ or 2/3 the height of the proposed wall, whichever is greater. The proposed wall height is 9’-6” and 2/3 of that height would be 6’-4” and thus, the required perimeter yard setback is a 6’-4” minimum distance. a) If the aforementioned 6’-4” distance cannot be met, secure a neighbor setback waiver with the following statement that must be provided on the plot plan and be signed and dated by the property owner(s) to the south across the alley: My Name is____________________ and I am the owner of the property located at_______________________. I have reviewed the site plan and I have no objection to structure being located or constructed________ feet from the property line as depicted on the site plan. Signature: _____________________________ Date: _________________________________ Ejemplo de renuncia de retroceso de un propietario adyacente para chalets estructuras accesorias. Declaración de exención del propietario adyacente debe agregarse al plan de sitio. Puede utilizar la siguiente instrucción. Mi hombre es ________________ y yo soy el dueño de la propiedad ubicada en la _____________________. He revisado el plan y no tengo ninguna objeción a que estructura se encuentra o construye ____________ desde la línea de propiedad, como se muestra en el plan. Firma: ________________________________ Fecha: ________________________________ b) Should you be unsuccessful in your attempt to retrieve the neighbor waiver we offer our Design Development Option which affords someone to attempt to seek relief from the setback requirements. This information is linked here: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/Departments/Planning-Development-Services/Planning-Zoning-Applications/Zoning-Administration#section-3 In order to submit a DDO application, apply for a new sub-record under this permit at TDC Online. https://www.tucsonaz.gov/files/sharedassets/public/v/2/pdsd/documents/tdc-faq/new-pdfs/sub-records.pdf See below for more information on the DDO process. 4. COMMENT: Regarding Perimeter Yard Setback from the West Property Line: As no dimension was provided from the proposed wall to the west property line to determine compliance, review the following for applicability. Per 6.4.5.D.3.b of the UDC (referenced below), a wall or fence not over six feet high may be erected within the limits of a perimeter yard. Unless you plan on revising the proposed wall height from 9’-6” to 6’-0”, a Design Development Option (DDO) to seek relief from this standard will also need to be pursued. Follow direction described above in Comment #3. And yes, all three DDO’s can be submitted together 5.
