PROJECT: T20CM06212
1151 N Magnolia Av
2nd SFR
Residential (1st Review)

TRANSMITTAL DATE: September 14, 2020

This site is located in the R-3 zone (UDC 4.7.12). A single-family residence is a permitted use in this zone (Table 4.8-2). See Use Specific Standards 4.9.7.B.6.

For the north perimeter yard setback, based on a residential use to a residential zone 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 (Table 6.3-2.A).

1. Based on a wall height of 22'-6" the required perimeter yard setback from the proposed SFR to the north property line is 15'-0", proposed setback is not provided on the plan.

For the south perimeter yard setback, based on a residential use to a non-residential zone the minimum setback is the greater of ten (10) feet, or three-quarters (3/4) the height of the structure's wall facing each interior property line (Table 6.3-2.A).

2. Based on a wall height of 10'-0" the required perimeter yard setback from the proposed SFR to the south property line is 10'-0", proposed setback is 7'-8".

3. Clarify if the elevation height dimensions are from design grade or to finish floor as building wall heights are measured from design grade to the highest point on the wall.

4. It does not appear that the alley width 24', shown on the plan is correct and should be 20'.

5. The zoning shown for the property to the south is not correct and should be listed as "C-2".

Until all comments are addressed Zoning cannot provide final Design Development Option comments.

PLAN REVIEW COMMENTS

Plan review for the above referenced structure has been completed. This letter reflects comments to be addressed. In order to facilitate a shorter back check time, please provide updated plans and calculations with a written response to each of the notated items indicating action taken. Do not cloud the changes made for comment revisions.

SCOPE OF REVIEW:

The scope of this plan review covers architectural, plumbing, mechanical, energy conservation and electrical. All code references are to the 2018 International Residential Code and 2018 International Energy Conservation Code. All features were checked only to the extent allowed by the submittals provided. All portions of this project are assumed to meet or will meet other departmental requirements, conditions and concerns before permit approval.

GENERAL COMMENTS:

1. All SFR and Duplex plans submitted after March 1, 2009 require a solar water system, or future installation preparation City of Tucson Ordinance #10549 with one of the following provisions: ½”control conduit and two ¾” copper piping for water with rooftop termination; straight 3” capped sleeve; or an accessible attic (clear path 30” wide x 30” high) over the water heater. Show appropriate notation.
2. All construction drawings submitted after June 1, 2010 for one- or two-family dwellings must provide gray water utilization or preparation, Ordinance #10579/11089 revised July 9, 2013. Include two clothes washer standpipes, one with an above grade stub-out, and one to the building drain; also provide gray drain-line discharge of all second story bathing fixtures through an exterior-wall drop for future gravity distribution. Include an aliened purple colored 2”or 3” vertical drop to a cleanout cap 2’ above grade. The home owner may perform system alteration for future gray water usage. Add the appropriate detail found at the web site: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/files/pdsd/codes-ordinances/Grey_Water_Options_FINAL_.pdf

FLOOR PLANS:

1. Show a maximum ½” floor elevation change at a notated accessible route entrance on the floor plan, R106.1.1. Include all threshold conditions for a route from the exterior into the living space.

SECTIONS - DETAILS:

1. The 1” air space shown at detail #10 sheet 6 requires venting to the exterior. A vented attic space requires a calculation for showing the attic ventilation opening size using 1 to 150 of attic area in compliance with R806.2. Provide appropriate upper and lower space vents when applying the reduced area calculation.

PLUMBING PLANS:

1. Sheet 10 shows a gas pack system. Show gas pipe sizes in compliance with connected demand, G2413.3 & Table G2413.4(1).

MECHANICAL PLANS:

1. Provide (an HVAC system with fresh air intake) whole-house mechanical ventilation, or controlled exhaust with a calculated airflow rate, R303.4; N1103.6 & M1505.4. Show the system and appropriate flow rate setting on the plans. A two or three bedroom dwelling of 1501 – 3000 SF requires a 60 CFM continuous setting.

INTERNATIONAL ENERGY CONSERVATION CODE:

1. Limit building air leakage in compliance with N1102.4. Combustion air vents may not provide openings through the thermal envelope. Provide a transfer grill though an interior wall or door.
2. Energy Certificate: (Mandatory) place near the indoor furnace or in utility room, N1101.14. Add notation to plans.
