Residential Addition/Alteration (1st Review)

TRANSMITTAL DATE: September 19th, 2025

This site is located in the R-1 zone (UDC 4.7.8). A single-family residence is a permitted use in this zone (Table 4.8-2) subject to Use Specific Standards 4.9.7.B.5 -.9.

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. (Comment) Per UDC Table 6.3-2.A, the minimum side and rear yard setbacks are 6’-0” or 2/3 the height of the exterior wall, whichever is greater. Based on the proposed carport with a height of 8’-7”, the required setback would be 6’-0”. The indicated setback for the proposed carport is 4’-6” from the property line. A Design Development Option (DDO) will be required. Please submit a DDO application under the Zoning Modification sub-record that has been created. For instructions on how to apply for a sub-record, visit the following link: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/files/sharedassets/public/v/1/pdsd/documents/tdc-faq/new-pdfs/sub-records_071425.pdf
For additional questions regarding DDOs, contact Mark Castro at Mark.Castro@tucsonaz.gov.

2. (Comment) Public record imagery shows an unpermitted shade structure constructed ~2023. Indicate this shade structure as part of the proposal. Draw its dimensions, height, and indicate its setback dimensions from the property line.

3. (Comment) The setback for the unpermitted shade structure referenced in Comment 2 appears to be within the minimum setback area. Waiver statements from property owners adjacent to the unpermitted shade structure must be added to the site plan. The following statement can be used.

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: _________________________________

If a neighbor waiver cannot be obtained and the shade structure is more than a foot away from the property line, a Design Development Option (DDO) will be required. Please submit a DDO application under the Zoning Modification sub-record that has been created. For instructions on how to apply for a sub-record, visit the following link: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/files/sharedassets/public/v/1/pdsd/documents/tdc-faq/new-pdfs/sub-records_071425.pdf

If a neighbor waiver cannot be obtained and the shade structure is less than one foot from the property line, a Board of Adjustment 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

For additional questions regarding DDO and Board of Adjustment Variance, contact Mark Castro at Mark.Castro@tucsonaz.gov.

4. (Comment) Records do not indicate a 15’ alley on the north property line. Clarify on the site plan.

5. (Comment) The lot coverage calculation is not correct. Per UDC Article 6.4.3.C.1.a, roofed areas and porches that are open on at least one side are not included in the calculation. Remove porch square footage from lot coverage calculation.

6. (Comment) Correct the square footage measurement of the ramada.

7. (Comment) Indicate the setback dimension from the carport to the front street property line.
