The proposed wall is located within this perimeter yard and is required to meet UDC Article 6.6.3.I 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 .)

Based on the La Madera Addition Final Plat found at: https://onbase.pima.gov/publicaccess/DS_NextGen_Single/etc/cq/results.html?cqid=240&OBKey__552_1=07092, there is a 10’ utility easement, 5’ of which is on the south end of your property and 5’ on the north end of property located at 2625 E. Glenn St.. Show the 5’ easement on your property. It appears that the proposed wall is located within the utility easement. If you wish to place the wall within the easement you will need to provide written permission from all utilities that have rights to this easement to allow the wall within the easement.

For all single-family dwellings in the R-1 zone with five or more bedrooms, and for all lots containing two or more single-family dwellings, with the second dwelling having more than one bedroom, all parking spaces must be located on-site , either in a side or rear perimeter yard. Parking spaces may not be located in a vehicular use area in any front street perimeter yard. A parking area is not required to be developed to a commercial standard.
