| 04/14/2021 | KEN VAN KARSEN | BUILDING-RESIDENTIAL | REVIEW | Reqs Change | T21CM00228 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. SITE PLAN: 1. Exterior walls with a fire separation distance less than 3-foot require not less than one-hour fire-resistive construction. Show compliance with R302.1 (City of Tucson Amended) by providing a section detail of materials prescribed in IBC Table 721.1(2), Items 15-1.1 to 16-1.3. Or remove the Garage from within the 3 foot fire separation distance to the west property line. STRUCTURAL PLANS: 1. Provide an Arizona engineer’s seal on the Garage structural plans for a performance design, R301.1. Stamped plans are available from the building supplier. ELECTRICAL PLANS: 1. Show the electrical service line with 8’ clearance above the Garage roof, E3604.2.1. Although, TEP usually requires the service panel on the property at the closest building to the service transformer. The overhead service conductor over the proposed building may be eliminated with a new service panel on the Garage (with 3’ clearance to property line) and a new UG feeder to the dwelling. Verify with TEP. Please contact the plans reviewer if you have any questions: Ken Van Karsen (520) 837-4912 PDSD-Residential@tucsonaz.gov City of Tucson Residential Plan Review |
| 04/23/2021 | STEVE SHIELDS | ZONING | REVIEW | Reqs Change | FROM: PDSD Zoning Review PROJECT: T21CM00228 2180 E Hancock Vista Detached Garage TRANSMITTAL: April 23, 2021 COMMENTS: the following comments are relative to an application for a Design Development Option (DDO) (UDC 3.11.1). This site is located in the R-1 zone (UDC 4.7.1). A single-family residence (SFR) is a permitted use in this zone (Table 4.8-2). See Use-Specific Standards 4.9.7.B.5 - 9. 10. 1. Per Unified Development Code (UDC) Article 6.6.3.C Accessory structures shall not exceed 12 feet in height, unless attached to a principal structure. If attached to the principal structure, maximum height permitted shall be the same as for the principal structure. Per UDC Article 6.4.4.A building height is the vertical distance measured from the design grade elevation to the middle (between the eave and ridge ) of the highest gable of a pitched roof. Based on the front elevation shown on sheet 2 and the roof pitch shown on sheet 6, 4 in 12 the mid-point of the roof is 12’-6” above finished floor plus 6” to design grade for a total of 13’-0” which exceeds the allowed height of a detached accessory structure in a residential zone. A Board of Adjustment for Variance must be submitted and approved for the proposed building height. Board of Adjustment application and information can be found at: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/files/pdsd/codes/Zoning_Administration_Application_BA_fillable.pdf. The Board of Adjustment is a separate submittal from the building plans and is submitted at: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/pdsd-filedrop, using the Submission Type “Zoning Administrator”. Perimeter yard setbacks are based on a measurement from design grade to the highest point of the exterior wall, see UDC Article 6.4.5.B.1 & Figure 6.4.5-A. As dimensions were not provided from finished grade Zoning is adding 6” to the provided dimensions shown on sheet 2 to determine perimeter yard setbacks. 2. Per UDC Table 6.3-2.A 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. As it is not clear which elevation is corresponding with which property line Zoning assumes that the front elevation looks northeast based on the access to the rear yard shown on the most current aerial photos. That said: i. Based on a wall height of 10’-6” the required perimeter yard setback to the southeast property line is 7’-0”, provided is 2’-0”. ii. Based on a wall height of 14’-6” the required perimeter yard setback to the southwest property line is 9’-8””, provided is 2’-0”. Per UDC Article 6.6.2.D An accessory structure that exceeds the allowable height of a wall within a perimeter yard and is detached from a principal structure shall comply with the perimeter yard width standards of the principal structure, except that the accessory structure may be built to a parcel line with the consent of the adjoining or, when separated by an alley, adjacent property owner(s). That said, your neighbors to the southeast and southwest can provide a signoff to reduce the perimeter yard setbacks as shown on the plan. The following text must be provided on the residential plot plan and signed/dated by the adjacent owners: 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: _________________________________ If you are unable to obtain the required neighbor setback waive depending on how comment 1 is addressed, if you elect to go to the Board of Adjustment the setbacks can be addressed during the Board of Adjustment or if you reduce the height a Design Development Option (DDO) can be submitted to reduce the perimeter yard setbacks. DDO application and requirements can be found at: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/files/pdsd/forms/DDO_for_Setback_and_Height_UDC_8.11.20.pdf. The DDO is a separate submittal from the building plans and is submitted at: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/pdsd-filedrop, using the Submission Type “Zoning Administrator”. |
