COMMENT: Provide a Residential Plot Plan that meets the requirements found at: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/files/sharedassets/public/pdsd/documents/permits/residential-permits/residential_plot_plan_requirements.pdf This shall in include: a. Lot coverage calculation that meets the requirements of UDC Article 6.4.3 & the example shown on the residential plot requirements. Lot coverage must include vehicular use area whether improved or unimproved, see UDC Article 6.4.3.B.3.b. b. Provide a dimension from the center line of Elm St to the face of curb, where pavement meets the concrete curb, and from face of curb to the south property line. Per Construction Plan I-468, sheet 10, found at: https://maps-and-records.tucsonaz.gov/construction-plans/details/I-468, The distance from centerline to face of curb is 17’, and from face of curb to south property line is 8’. c. Pe UDC Article 6.4.5.B.2 perimeter yard setbacks to a porch or carport type structure are measured from the post supporting the roof structure as long as the roof overhang is not more than 2’-0”, UDC Article 6.4.5.D.1.b and 6.4.5.D.2.A.(5). Clearly show the post supporting the proposed roof structures along with overhang dimensions and provide perimeter yard setback dimensions on the site plan. d. The “FRONT SETBACK 10.00’” shown on the site plan is not correct. Per UDC Article 6.4.5.C.1.a, the required front street perimeter yard setback is 20’. e. The “REAR SETBACK 10.00’” shown on the site plan is not correct. Per UDC Table 6.3-2.A the minimum setback is the greater of six (6) feet, or two-thirds (2/3) the height of the structure’s wall facing each interior property line. 2.
