COMMENTS: Please resubmit revised drawings and any redlined plans along with a detailed response letter, which states how all Zoning Review Section comments were addressed.

1. Correct the adjacent zoning to R-1.

2. Provide building heights, measured from design grade to the highest point of the proposed exterior building walls, on the elevations.

3. Per UDC Table 6.3.2-A, the required side and rear perimeter yard setbacks are the greater of 6'-0" or 2/3 the height of the proposed exterior building wall. Based on an estimated wall height of 17'-6", the required rear yard setback to the north lot line is 11'-8". Demonstrate that the rear yard setback is being met in your next submittal.

4. Per UDC 6.4.5.C, the required front street perimeter yard setback is the greater of 20'-0" or 1 ½ times the height of the proposed exterior building wall. Based on an estimated wall height of 17'-6", the required front street setback to the south lot line is 22'-0"; proposed is 21'-0".

A DDO must be submitted and approved to reduce the required setbacks. The DDO application and its 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 plan and shall be submitted at: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/pdsd-filedrop, using the Submission Type "Zoning Administration." Please contact Mark Castro at Mark.Castro@tucsonaz.gov if you have questions about the DDO application or process.

Plan review for the above referenced structure has been completed. This letter reflects comments to be addressed. For facilitating 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 updates; revisions are processed if changes occur after the permit is issued.

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.

1. A dwelling unit (living space with kitchen) providing complete independent living facilities requires compliance with design ordinances for handicap, solar water, photo-voltaic, gray water and EV charging preparations. Design Ordinances adopted by the City of Tucson.
2. 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.
3. All SFR and Duplex plans submitted after July 1, 2009 require a solar photo-voltaic system, or future installation preparation City of Tucson Ordinance #10549 .
a. Show a minimum 300 SF clear solar-ready zone on a roof or framing plan, T103.3. Model plans should show four typical south facing roof surfaces.
b. Label a double breaker space for future Photo Voltaic on the panel schedule opposite end from the main/supply side, T103.9. Update breaker space location.
4. 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. The ordinance revision now requires a gray drain line discharge from one fixture for a one story dwelling. Additional gray fixture drains are optional. Show a second clothes washer standpipe plumbed to an exterior wall above grade when feasible, or a bathing fixture drain looped 3’ beyond an exterior wall below grade before connection to the building drain. See details for compliance at https://www.tucsonaz.gov/pdsd/water-energy-conservation
5. Show compliance with the Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment Ordinance adopted by the City of Tucson Ordinance #11844 on 6/22/2021. Include a 40 ampere 240 volt dedicated branch circuit with a NEMA 14-50R receptacle for charging an electric vehicle at a proposed parking space or show the distance from transit or a bike boulevard as not greater than a quarter-mile.

PLANS:

1. Show a maximum ½” floor elevation changes at a notated accessible route entrance on the floor plan, R106.1.1. Include the threshold condition at the vehicle doorway or an exterior hinged door when the garage is used for the accessible route.
