06/15/2026 Residential Zoning REQUIRES RESUBMIT PDSD TRANSMITTAL

FROM: Roxanne Johnston
Planner
PROJECT: TC-RES-1125-05473
5843 E 26th St., Tucson, AZ 85711
Porch, Laundry Additions & Sleeping Quarters (3rd Review)

TRANSMITTAL DATE: 06/15/2026

This site is located within the R-2 Zone (UDC 4.7.9). A single-family residence is a permitted use in this zone (Table 4.8-2) subject to Use Specific Standards 4.9.7.B.6, .9, & .10.

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. As of January 1, 2026, Ordinance No. 12219, an amendment to the UDC went into effect. Required side and rear setbacks are now 5' (see UDC Table 6.3-2.A). A DDO for the laundry addition only is no longer required.

2. Resubmit the building plans for the porch addition and make a note that the sleeping quarters are reviewed by separate permit. Clearly label the projects as indicated in red within the plan set.

3. Apply for a separate building permit for the sleeping quarters located in the NE corner of the lot. What is labeled as a casita is considered a ‘sleeping quarters’ or ‘guest quarters.’ ADUs and casitas are considered living units by code. Sleeping /guest quarters are accessory buildings, but not accessory dwelling units. Please delete all references to ‘casita’ and relabel as either ‘sleeping quarters’ or ‘guest quarters.’ This structure needs its own building permit separate from the porch permit.

4. On Sheet A1.1, please relabel the refrigerator in the sleeping quarters as a half refrigerator since full refrigerators (and stoves) cause this unit to become an ADU (livable).

5. Please make the corrections shown in red on the plan set sheets.

6. The sleeping quarters will need either neighbor waivers from the owners at 1536 S Sahuara Av and 5836 E 26th St or a DDO if neighbor waivers are not possible.

Neighbor waivers are to be applied directly to the site plan and should read something similar to the following: 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:_________

Mi hombre es _________ y yo soy el dueño de la propiedad ubicada en la
________________ . He revisado el plan y no tengo ninguna objeción a que
estructura se encuentra o construye ______ desde la línea de propiedad, como se muestra en el plan. Firma: ___________ Fecha: _____________

7. If neighbor waivers are not possible, a new DDO application will be required. To apply for a DDO, please submit the 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:

8. Please wait for the DDO approval before resubmitting for the building permit. When resubmitting for the building permit, please include the DDO Decision Letter and a Response Letter addressing all staff comments from this review cycle.

9. Additional comments may be forthcoming depending on responses to zoning review comments and plans submitted for the next review.
