SCOPE OF REVIEW:

The scope of this plan review covers architectural, plumbing, mechanical, energy conservation and electrical. All code references are to the 2018 International Residential Code and 2018 International Energy Conservation 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.

PROVIDE A COMPLETE PLAN SET showing all proposed alterations to the building with 2018 IRC code compliance with component sizes.

Provide a response letter on separate file with submitting the updated construction plan set.

SITE PLAN:

Provide compliance with R302.1 (City of Tucson Amended) by providing a complete wall barrier with not less than one-hour fire-resistive construction in compliance with IBC Table 721.1(2).

PLANS:

1. Indicate the direction of slope for the garage slab, R309.1.
2. Show the material composition of the wall separating the garage and dwelling. This wall requires a fire rated product in compliance with R302.6 such as ½” gypsum board (garage side).

STRUCTURAL PLANS:

1. Show the location of all proposed support footings, R106.1.1.
2. Provide a Roof Framing Plan showing the beams sized for supporting live and dead structural loads (Table R602.7(3)) or provide an engineer’s calculation, design, and seal for a performance design when minimum sizes are not code compliant with the IRC, R301.1.
3. Provide a Roof Framing Plan showing the rafters sized for supporting live and dead structural loads (Table R802.4.1(1)) or provide an engineer’s calculation, design, and seal for a performance design when minimum sizes are not code compliant with the IRC, R301.1.

Show the wall assembly with a 6” clearance above the ground or 2” clearance above an exterior concrete surface, R317.1 item 5.
3 The floor requires a slope for water runoff, R309.1, therefore the framed wall requires a concrete stem for achieving the 6” clearance between framing and ground (R317.1 item 5).
4 Show garage opening narrow panels with fastening details using a prescriptive method at Figure R602.10.6.2, R602.10.6.3 or R602.10.6.4.

City of Tucson Residential Plan Review
08/26/2024 Site Zoning REQUIRES RESUBMIT PDSD TRANSMITTAL

FROM: Fernando Garcia
Planning & Development Services Department – Zoning Review Section

PROJECT: TC-RES-0724-04417 – Residential Building – Addition/Alteration
5915 E 5th St, Tucson, AZ 85711
Building Plan Review (1st Review)

TRANSMITTAL DATE: August 26, 2024

This site is located 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.

This permit is linked to code enforcement case CE-VIO0424-01207.

RESUBMITTAL OF THE FOLLOWING IS REQUIRED: Revised plans, as noted in the comment below, along with a detailed letter indicating responses to the review comments.

1. (Comment) Show all building setbacks on the site plan, including the existing setbacks for all structures as well as the proposed setbacks to the nearest property lines for any new structures or additions.

2. (Comment) The submitted plans appear to show a 16’ setback from the garage addition to the property line.

This property is zoned R-1. The minimum street setback for an attached structure is 20’ from the front property line.

You can request to reduce the front setback down to a minimum of 18’ by submitting a Design Development Option (DDO) application on next submittal.

More information about the DDO can be found at: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/files/sharedassets/public/v/1/pdsd/documents/planning-amp-zoning/ddo_for_setback_and_height_udc.pdf. Please contact Georgia Pennington at georgia.pennington@tucsonaz.gov or 520-837-6311 for more information.

If the applicant desires to proceed with a anything less than an 18-foot setback for the garage addition, a Board of Adjustment (B/A) Variance would be necessary. More information about the B/A can be found at https://www.tucsonaz.gov/Departments/Planning-Development-Services/Public-Meetings-Boards-Committees-Commissions/Board-of-Adjustment-Agenda. If you are interested in exploring this option, please contact Mark Castro at mark.castro@tucsonaz.gov or 520-837-4979 for more information.

3. (Comment) The submitted plans show a zero-foot setback to the western property line.
In an R-1 zone the minimum side setback is 6’ or 2/3 of the building wall height, whichever is greater. Wall height is measured to design grade. As a design grade is not provided, 6” is assumed. With the assumed wall grade and wall height shown on the west elevation sheet, a total wall height of 10’ 4” is assumed. In this case, the side setback would be 6’ 10” from the western property line. If these assumed measurements are incorrect, clearly indicate what these measurements are on next submittal.

You can request to reduce side setback down to 1’ minimum through an approved DDO. See more information in comment 3.

Any setback below 1’ minimum can only be granted through a Board of Adjustment Variance. See more information in comment 3.

4. This property fronts 5th St, which is recognized as a major street. On the site plan show the sidewalk, curb, and travel lane of the street and dimensions.

Distance from face of curb to the front property line is 15’ 6”.

Distance from property line to street centerline is 40’.

Paving plans with dimensions are available at https://maps-and-records.tucsonaz.gov/construction-plans/details/U-2005-003. See sheet U-2005-003_009.TIF.

5. No connection is shown from the garage addition to the existing garage. Provide floor plan for principal home and indicate what will become of the existing garage.

6. (Comment) Show the swimming pool on the site plan.
