| 09/05/2023 | Site Zoning | REQUIRES RESUBMIT | ZONING REVIEW TRANSMITTAL FROM: Wyatt Berger Lead Planner PROJECT: TC-RES-0823-07434 8536 East Desert Steppes Drive – R-1 ADU (1st Review) TRANSMITTAL DATE: September 5, 2023 Please resubmit revised drawings with a detailed response letter stating how all Zoning Review Section comments were addressed. The site is in the R-1 zone (UDC 4.7.8). An accessory dwelling unit (ADU) is a permitted use in the R-1 zone, subject to use-specific standards 4.9.7.B.6, .8, and .9, and 6.6.3. 1. Remove the proposed and existing porches from the lot coverage calculations as roofed areas, open on at least one side, which provide shelter to exterior areas, provided they are not used for utilities, maintenance, laundry, storage, or motor vehicle parking, are excluded from the lot coverage calculation (UDC 6.4.3.C.1.a). 2. Show the location of the motor vehicle parking space required for the ADU. The parking requirement may be satisfied with available on-street parking or waived if the site is within ¼ mile walking distance of a transit stop or an enhanced bike route as listed in the Bike Boulevard Master Plan (UDC 6.6.3.B.2). 3. Perimeter yard requirements are based on a measurement from the design grade elevation to the highest point of the exterior wall (UDC 6.4.5.B and Figure 6.4.5-A). Per UDC 6.3.2-A, when a residential use is adjacent to a residential zone, the required setbacks are six feet or 2/3 the height of the exterior wall, whichever is greater, measured from the proposed south, east, and west lot lines. Provide setback dimensions on the site plan. Additionally, provide measurements from the design grade elevation to the highest point of all exterior walls on the elevations to verify the setbacks depicted on the site plan.
