| 03/29/2005 | HEATHER THRALL | ZONING | REVIEW | Denied | DSD TRANSMITTAL FROM: Heather Thrall Senior Planner FOR: David Rivera Principal Planner PROJECT: T05CM00842 4305 S. Audrey Lane Accessory sleeping/guest quarters Site plan 1st Review Transmittal date: March 29, 2005 COMMENTS: Please resubmit revised drawings along with redlines and a response letter, which states how all Zoning Review Section comments regarding the Land Use Code and Development Standards were addressed. 1. Please provide the last name of the property owner(s) on the revised site plan. 2. On the resubmitted site plan, please indicate the total building height of the guest quarters structure, as measured from grade to the top of the roof. In addition, please show where the height measurements of the proposed structure, as shown on the submitted site plan as twelve (12) feet tall, were taken from on the revised site plan (i.e. from grade to the midpoint of the roof pitch). 3. On the resubmittal, please show building and wall heights on all provided elevation views, with indication of which view (East, West, etc.) the elevations show. 4. Please provide the location and label for the water lines on the site, as well as the direction of the electric line and whether it is overhead or underground on the site. 5. Please provide the zoning classifications for all adjacent parcels. 6. A legal description for this property is required on the resubmitted site plan. 7. Please delineate the driveway access point(s) for the site on the revised site plan. 8. The submitted site plan shows two detached accessory structures, a corral and a barn, in the front yard of the site. The front yard is the area from the street front lot line to the wall of the residence facing the street front. Per the Land Use Code, detached accessory structures are not permitted in the front yard. Staff took into consideration this property was built in Pima County and annexed into the City of Tucson in 1988, and conducted research to determine if the corral and barn were on the site as shown on the submitted site plan prior to annexation. City of Tucson aerial photographs from 1987, just prior to the annexation of this property, do not show the barn and corral on the site, which indicates the structures were erected under the jurisdiction of the City of Tucson and must meet city codes. Staff cannot approve the submitted site plan for the proposed guest quarters as submitted without addressing the code requirements for the corral and barn on the site. On the resubmitted plans, any site plan approved by the city showing the barn and corral in the front yard may be attached to the submittal to show code compliance. If such a plan is not available, the Zoning Administrator may be petitioned to review these accessory structures for a possible legal nonconforming status to allow them to remain on site as shown on the submitted site plan. Should the Zoning Administrator determine the structures are legal nonconforming, please attach the written confirmation to the revised site plan. Should the Zoning Administrator determine the structures are not legal nonconforming, the alternative is to relocate the structures on the property to meet setback and other code requirements, or obtain a Board of Adjustment variance for their indicated location. 9.
