| 12/20/2021 | STEVE SHIELDS | ZONING | REVIEW | Reqs Change | ZONING REVIEW TRANSMITTAL FROM: PDSD Zoning Review PROJECT: T21CM08890 2914 S Cottonwood Ln - R-1 New SFR (1st Review) TRANSMITTAL: November 23, 2021 This site is located in the R-1 zone (UDC 4.7.8). A single-family residence (SFR) is a permitted use in this zone (Table 4.8-2). See Use-Specific Standards 4.9.7.B.1 - .9, & .11. 1. The setbacks listed under "SITE REVIEW" are not correct. Per Unified Development Code (UDC) Article 6.4.5.C.1 the street perimeter yard setback is 20 feet or one and one-half the height of the proposed wall (H), measured from the street property line, whichever is greater. Interior setbacks, north, west & south are based on UDC Table 6.3-2.A: DIMENSIONAL STANDARDS FOR THE R-1, R-2, R-3, MH-1, & MH-2 ZONES, R-1 Zone, Residential Use to Residential Zone the required perimeter yard setback is 6'-0" or 2/3 the height of the exterior wall, greater of the two. 2. It does not appear that Unit 1 meets the required street perimeter yard, but until setbacks are shown correctly the requirements cannot be verified. 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. A Design Development Option to reduce the front street perimeter yard setback may be required. 3. The code reference, 3.2.6.5.B.2, shown under "FRONT PER STREET FRONTAGE" is not correct. This reference is a Land Use Code (LUC) reference and has not been applicable since 2011 remove this reference from the plan. Also the reference to "REAR PER DEV. DES. 'BB" is no longer applicable. 4. Provide a lot coverage calculation that meets the requirements of UDC Article 6.4.3 and the example shown on the Residential Plot Plan Requirements found at: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/files/pdsd/forms/Residential_Plot_Plan_Requirements.pdf. 5. Provide a calculation on the plan that demonstrates that the requirements of UDC Article 4.9.7.B.3 is met, One dwelling must be at least 25% smaller than the other dwelling. 6.
