| 10/29/2026 | Residential Engineering | REQUIRES RESUBMIT | Permit: TC-RES-1026-05647 Location: 6858 E NEW HAMPSHIRE DR Review Date: 10/29/2026 A Comment Response letter is required. Please address all reviewer’s comments in a separate document with all required documents for resubmittal. Residential Engineering Comments: 1. The added brick to the existing block wall exceeds 6’. Please note, the height of the wall is measured from the lowest adjacent grade. The measurement recorded from the alley during the Code Enforcement Visit found the wall to exceed 6’-8”. 2. Per Residential Zoning, this is permissible with application and approval of Design Development Option (DDO). Please reply in the Comment Response how you wish to proceed. 3. The site plan submitted does not provide clarity on the property dimensions or the total length of wall. Please also clarify if 2’ was added all the way around to the existing wall. Here is an example of a basic site plan that can be used to provide more clarity: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/files/sharedassets/public/v/2/pdsd/documents/plan-samples/basic-site-plan_feb2026.pdf If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Dylan Molina.

| 10/27/2026 | Residential Zoning | REQUIRES RESUBMIT | PDSD TRANSMITTAL FROM: Drew Szentesy Planning & Development Services Department – Zoning Review Section PROJECT: TC-RES-1026-05647 6858 E NEW HAMPSHIRE DR TUCSON, AZ 85710 Brick Wall Height Increase TRANSMITTAL DATE: October 26, 2026 This site is located in the R-1 zone (UDC 4.7.9). Middle Housing is a permitted use in this zone (Table 4.8-2) subject to Use Specific Standards 4.9.7.B.4-6, 8, 9, & 11-14. 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. The maximum height allowed in the Tucson Unified Development Code is 6 feet. Exceeding 6 feet will require one of the following: a. At least 75% of the area above six feet in height is left unobstructed and open through the use of architectural elements, such as arches, columns, or wrought iron. This does not appear to be relevant to the brick wall. b. A design development option (DDO), which can be applied for through the sub-record tab within your permit application on Tucson Development Center Online. Please submit the following form to the zoning modification sub-record if you chose this option: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/files/sharedassets/public/v/1/pdsd/documents/planning-amp-zoning/ddo-for-setback-and-height.pdf This will introduce added fees and review time. c. Lower the maximum fence height to 6 feet. It appears the fence may already be built so this may not be a good option. The Unified Development Code (UDC) can be found at: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/Departments/Planning-Development-Services/Codes/Zoning-Code For questions regarding Zoning comments, please contact me at: Drew.Szentesy@tucsonaz.gov |
