Carport & Porch Addition, Permit Existing Carport and Detached Shed (1st Review)

TRANSMITTAL: December 15, 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 Unified Development Code 4.7.1, (UDC). 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.

Perimeter yard setbacks are based on a measurement from design grade to the highest point of the exterior wall UDC Article 6.4.5.B & Figure 6.4.5-A.

The minimum setback to the front street perimeter property line is the greater of twenty (20) feet, or one and one-half (1 ½) the height of the proposed wall ((UDC 6.4.5.C.1.a).
The DDO process may only be used to reduce the driveway length to a carport, and not to a garage (UDC Section 3.11.1.B.4).

Comments for the proposed carport & porch:
1. Set\back measurements for carport and porch type structures are measured from the post supporting the structure as long as there is no more than a 2’-0” overhang. In the case where a roof overhang is greater than 2’-0” than the setback is measure from 2’-0” back from the edge of roof. UDC Article 6.4.5.B.2 & 6.4.5.D.2.a.(2). For the proposed carport and porch show the required perimeter yard setbacks from either the post supporting the structure or the 2’-0” overhang as applicable. It appears that a Design Development Option (DDO) will be required but until the setbacks are shown correctly Zoning cannot provide the required comments to submit the DDO. As a Board of Adjustment is required for the existing setback to the west property line it is recommended that the proposed carport and porch setbacks be process in the Board of Adjustment to prevent the need to two different processes.

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).

Comments for the existing carport:
2. Based on a wall height less than 9’-0” the required perimeter yard setback for the existing carport to the west property line is 6’-0”, proposed setback is 0’-0”. A Board of Adjustment for Variance is required to reduce the perimeter yard to 0’-0”.

Comments for existing shed:
3. Based on a wall height less than 9’-0” the required perimeter yard setback for the existing carport to the west property line is 6’-0”, proposed setback is 0’-0”. As this is a detached accessory structure a neighbor’s setback waiver maybe used to reduce the perimeter yard setback to 0’-0”, see UDC Article 6.6.2.D. To secure the setback waiver the following text must be provide on the plot plan and be signed and dated by the adjacent property owner:
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: _________________________________

The following comments must be addressed prior to approval of the plan:
4. Provide a dimension from the center line of the street to the face of curb, face of curb is where the pavement meets the concrete of the curb. Provide a dimension from the face of curb to the property line. Distance from the centerline of street to the face of curb should be 16’-0” and from face of curb to property should be 9’-0”.
5. The scale for the drawing shown, 1” = 1’-0”, is not correct.

6. There is a dashed line that has a call out of “PROPERTY LINE” that runs around the entire property. It appears that this is a setback line not a property line. Remove this line from the plan.

7. Remove all references to the infill of the pool as permit T21BU00061 Pool Demo has already been issued.

8. Provide black & white drawings on the next submittal as the colors can be difficult to read, and submit as a single multi-page pdf file.

As the existing carport requires a Board of Adjustment for Variance, a DDO cannot reduce a setback to less than 1’-0”, Zoning recommends that you include all setback reductions in the Variance process except the existing shed. Board of Adjustment application and requirements can be found at: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/files/pdsd/codes/Zoning_Administration_Application_BA_fillable.pdf, and is submitted at: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/pdsd-filedrop, using Submission Type “Zoning Administration”
