Revision Sleeping Quarters to ADU (1st Review)

TRANSMITTAL: March 21, 2022
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.

Per UDC Article 6.6.2.D and Accessory Dwelling Unit may not use the neighbor setback waiver to reduce the perimeter yard setbacks. A Design Development Option (DDO) is required. 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. A DDO is a separate submittal from the building plan and shall be submitted at: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/pdsd-filedrop, using the Submission Type “Zoning Administration”. If you have questions about the DDO application or process please contact Mark Castro at Mark.Castro@tucsonaz.gov.

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 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 8’-6” the required perimeter yard setback from the ADU to the east property line 6’-0”, proposed setback is 4’-0”
2. Based on a wall height of 11’-4” the required perimeter yard setback from the ADU to the south property line is 7’-7”, proposed setback is 6’-0”.

Additional comments:
3. Revised all plans to show the proposed use as an Accessory Dwelling Unit not a “Home Office”.
4. It does not appear that the square footage lists in the lot coverage is correct. Per UDC Article 6.4.3.B.3.a Any area of a building within the outside edges of the exterior walls at ground level count toward the lot coverage. Based on the dimensions provided on sheet 2 from out edge of the building 16’ x 26’ = 416 SF plus the bar area 6’ x 3’ = 18 SF for a total of 434 SF. Revise the plans to show the correct square footage.

If you have any questions about this transmittal, please contact Zone1.desk@tucsonaz.gov.
