*** 
 
Accessory Dwelling UNIT (ADU):  A subordinate dwelling UNIT, AS DEFINED IN THIS 
SECTION, SUBORDINATE TO THE PRIMARY DWELLING UNIT AND situated on the 
same lot with the main dwelling and used as FOR an A RESIDENTIAL accessory use.  
ADUs, WHERE PERMITTED, DO NOT COUNT TOWARDS CALCULATIONS OF 
GROSS DENSITY. 
*** 
 
Apartment: See "Dwelling, Multiple-Family". A DWELLING UNIT WITHIN A DUPLEX, 
TRIPLEX, TOWNHOME DEVELOPMENT, AND/OR MULTIFAMILY DEVELOPMENT 
WHERE EACH UNIT HAS A PRIMARY ACCESS TO A SHARED WALKWAY OR 
CORRIDOR, AND EACH UNIT IS NOT INDIVIDUALLY OWNED.   
*** 
 
Building, Main: A building, or buildings, in which is conducted the principal use of the lot 
on which it is situated. In any residential district, any dwelling shall be deemed to be 
the main building of the lot on which the same is situated. ON LOTS WITH ONLY 
SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL USES, THE PRIMARY DWELLING UNIT SHALL BE 
CONSIDERED THE MAIN BUILDING. 
*** 
 
DUPLEX:  A BUILDING ON ONE LOT, WHICH HOUSES EXACTLY TWO DWELLING 
UNITS, NEITHER OF WHICH MAY BE CONSIDERED AN ACCESSORY DWELLING 
UNIT.  EACH DUPLEX UNIT COUNTS TOWARDS THE CALCULATION OF GROSS 
DENSITY. 
*** 
 
Dwelling, Multifamily: A building or buildings attached to each other and containing two or 
more dwelling units. The term "multifamily dwelling" is intended to apply to dwelling types

-3-                                       Ordinance ________ 
 
as triplex, fourplex, and apartments where any dwellings have their primary access to a 
common hallway or corridor. 
 
Dwelling, Single-Family Attached: A building containing dwelling units each of which has 
primary ground floor access to the outside and which are attached to each other. Each

townhouses and duplexes. 
 
Dwelling, Single-Family, Detached: A building containing only one dwelling unit entirely 
separated by open space from buildings on adjoining lots or building sites. 
 
Dwelling Unit: One (1) or more rooms within a building arranged, designed, or used for 
residential purposes for one (1) family and containing INDEPENDENT LIVING AND

OTHER TYPES OF DWELLING UNITS.   
*** 
 
Guesthouse:   A free-standing building which is designed to house guests or servants of 
the occupants of the primary dwelling unit.  SEE “ACCESSORY DWELLING UNIT”. 
For purposes of a guest house, a "free-standing building" shall be one which is either not 
connected to the primary dwelling unit or, if connected to the primary dwelling unit, shall 
be considered free-standing if: 
1. The connecting structure is less than ten (10) feet wide; or 
2. The connecting structure is greater than ten (10) feet wide and the length of the 
connection is more than twice the width of the connecting structure.

distance across its narrowest point, measured from the inside surfaces of the exterior, 
enclosing walls. The length of the connecting structure shall be the shortest possible 
straight line distance from the outside surface of the primary dwelling unit to the most 
distant outside surface of the connecting structure. 
For purposes of a guest house, a structure shall be deemed to be "designed to house 
guests or servants of the occupants or the primary dwelling unit" if it contains the 
following;

-4-                                       Ordinance ________

TO BE FURTHER SUBDIVIDED, used or offered for use in whole or in part, with or 
without charge, for the parking of occupied offsite manufactured homes. 
*** 
 
Single-Family Attached (SFA) Development: A group of single-family attached dwelling 
units located on individually owned lots with common areas which are designed as an

and design flexibility allow for quality individual property ownership within a larger 
development. Includes townhouse and row house dwellings located on small single-family 
owned lots. 
SINGLE-FAMILY: A LOT OR DEVELOPMENT WHERE NO MORE THAN ONE 
PRIMARY DWELLING UNIT IS PROVIDED PER LOT.   
SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED: A SINGLE-FAMILY LOT OR DEVELOPMENT WHERE 
EACH DWELLING UNIT IS ATTACHED TO AT LEAST ONE, BUT NO MORE THAN 
TWO NEIGHBORING PRIMARY DWELLING UNITS AT THE ABUTTING SIDE 
PROPERTY LINE(S). EACH DWELLING UNIT MUST ALSO COMPLY WITH THE 
DEFINITION OF “TOWNHOME/TOWNHOUSE”.

POTENTIAL BONUS DENSITY AND DESIGN FLEXIBILITY ALLOW FOR QUALITY 
INDIVIDUAL PROPERTY OWNERSHIP WITHIN A LARGER DEVELOPMENT. 
*** 
 
TOWNHOME/TOWNHOUSE:  A TYPE OF DWELLING UNIT WHICH IS ATTACHED TO 
AT LEAST ONE OTHER DWELLING UNIT. THE DWELLING UNITS MAY BE 
ATTACHED AT A PROPERTY LINE (SEE “SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED”), OR THEY 
MAY BE MULTIPLE UNITS ON A SINGLE LOT (SEE “DUPLEX”, “TRIPLEX”, AND/OR 
“MULTIFAMILY”). THE KEY CHARACTERISTIC OF A TOWNHOME IS THAT THERE IS 
NO VERTICAL OVERLAP OF ANY DWELLING UNITS. 
*** 
 
TRIPLEX:  A BUILDING ON ONE LOT WHICH HOUSES EXACTLY THREE DWELLING 
UNITS, NONE OF WHICH MAY BE CONSIDERED AN ACCESSORY DWELLING UNIT.  
EACH TRIPLEX UNIT COUNTS TOWARDS THE CALCULATION OF GROSS DENSITY. 
*** 
Yard: A space on any lot, unoccupied by a structure and unobstructed from the ground 
upward except as otherwise provided herein, and measured as the minimum horizontal 
distance from a building or structure, excluding carports, porches and other permitted 
projects, to the property line opposite such building line in the side or rear yards, or to the 
street right-of-way or easement in the front yard; provided, however, that where a future 
width line is established by the provisions of this ordinance for any street bounding the lot, 
then such measurement shall be taken from the line of the building to such future width 
line.

SECTION 2: That Chapter 5, Section 507 Tab A II.C. (Subdivision 
Design/Development) and Section 507 Tab A II.C.8 (Single-Family Design Review), is 
amended to read as follows:

*** 
 
 
8. 
Single-Family DETACHED Design Review. New single-family detached 
dwelling units, LOTS HAVING A SINGLE individual duplexes OR TRIPLEX 
(duplex developments consisting of ten or more duplex buildings located on 
the same lot or adjacent lots are not subject to single-family design review), 
manufactured homes, and modular homes that have not received 
preliminary site plan or subdivision approval, or building permit issuance 
prior to August 1, 2005 shall be subject to single-family design review, as 
follows (R*)(R): 
 
 
(a) 
Single-family detached developments where 10% or more of the lots 
are equal to or less than 65'  FEET in width or any residential 
horizontal property regime shall incorporate Design Guidelines 
Sections 8.1 through 8.4. 
 
 
(b) 
Individual single-family detached dwelling units, not subject to 
Subdivision Design Guidelines 8.1 through 8.4, on a lot or parcel of 
65 feet in width, or less, shall incorporate Design Guidelines Section 
8.5.  THIS REQUIREMENT INCLUDES LOTS WITH A SINGLE 
DUPLEX OR TRIPLEX WHEN NOT LOCATED IN A SUBDIVISION 
SUBJECT TO II.C.8(a). 
 
 
 
(c) 
Individual duplexes (as specified above) shall incorporate Design 
Guidelines Section 8.5. DWELLING UNITS ON LOTS ZONED OR 
DESIGNATED HP ARE EXEMPT FROM THE PROVISIONS OF 
SECTION 8.5, SO LONG AS THE PLANS ARE REVIEWED AND 
APPROVED THROUGH HISTORIC PRESERVATION PRIOR TO 
ISSUANCE OF ANY BUILDING PERMITS. . 
(d) 
Individual manufactured and modular homes, regardless of lot width, 
shall incorporate Design Guidelines Section 8.5. 
(e) 
Manufactured and modular home subdivisions, regardless of lot 
width, shall incorporate Design Guidelines Sections 8.1 through 8.4.

(8.5) Individual Unit Design Standards. The goal of these individual unit 
design standards is to ensure a minimum level of design quality for 
detached single-family dwelling units, duplexes, manufactured 
homes, and modular homes. For information on relief from 
requirements (R) AND (R*), and presumptions (P) refer to Section 
507.C of the Zoning Ordinance.

-8-                                       Ordinance ________ 
 
 
 
(a) 
Plot plans shall show all required design guidelines as plan 
details or general notes. (R) 
 
 
 
 
Rationale: Design guidelines should be shown on plans to 
help ensure they are easily understood by the public and 
equally applied by City staff. 
 
 
 
 
(b) 
Where two detached units are placed on a single lot, a notice 
that the lots are not to be split without prior City approval 
shall be recorded with the Maricopa County Recorder’s 
Office prior to issuance of building permits. The recorded 
document shall be on a form approved by the City Attorney’s 
Office. A copy of the recorded document shall be submitted 
with the application for building permit approval and the 
recorded document noted on the submitted site plan. (R) 
 
 
 
 
Rationale: The public is often unaware that the City has lot 
split requirements and may unknowingly create an illegal lot, 
causing self-imposed obstacles to development. 
 
 
 
 
(c) 
All driveways and parking spaces shall be hard surfaced with 
brick, pavers, concrete, asphalt or equivalent. (R) 
 
 
 
 
Rationale: A defined driveway and parking area reduces 
vehicle maneuvering on areas not suitable for vehicles. Hard 
surfaces contribute to dust emissions substantially less than 
loose or unimproved surfaces. Hard surfaces are generally 
more attractive and compatible with surrounding residences. 
 
 
 
 
 
(d) (a) Each dwelling unit shall have at least one covered parking 
space located in a garage or under a carport. The design of 
the covered parking shall be substantially similar with regard 
to texture, color and material to that of the housing. (R*) (R) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Rationale: Covered parking reduces the visual impact of 
parked cars. Carports and garages that are designed with 
the same level of quality as the house are more attractive 
and more compatible with surrounding residences. 
 
 
 
 
 
(e) (b) The FRONT YARD area between the front building line and 
the front property line, excluding areas necessary approved  
for VEHICLE access, should be landscaped with the 
following elements: (P) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(1) 
A minimum of one, two inch caliper or greater, drought 
resistant, accent tree. (P*)

-9-                                       Ordinance ________ 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(2) 
A minimum of five, five gallon or greater, drought 
resistant shrubs. (P*) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(3) 
Dustproofed with ground cover, turf, rock, 
decomposed granite, or equivalent material as 
approved by the Planning and Development 
Department. (P*) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(4) 
An irrigation system. (P*) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Rationale: Landscaping contributes to an attractive 
environment, provides shade, and contributes to 
neighborhood identity. 
 
 
 
 
 
(f) 
Unless all parking is provided off an alley, no more  than half 
of the area between the rear lot line and the rear building line 
of a single family dwelling unit, or two-thirds of said area for 
duplexes, should be used for parking. (P*) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Rationale: Excessive vehicle parking areas reduces 
compatibility with surrounding residences and minimizes the 
opportunity for recreational activity and landscaped space.

Parking—Rear Building Line 
 
 
 
 
 
(g) (c) 
Required covered parking for single family dwelling units, 
duplexes, manufactured homes, and modular homes shall 
not protrude BE LOCATED more than ten feet beyond 
CLOSER TO THE FRONT PROPERTY LINE THAN the front 
ENTRY building line. (R*)

-10-                                       Ordinance ________ 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Rationale: When parking structures are concentrated in front 
of a dwelling unit, the building loses its residential character 
and compatibility with surrounding residences is negatively 
impacted. 
 
 
[remove picture, do not replace] 
 
Covered Parking 2 
 
 
 
(h) 
The area between the rear building line and the rear lot line 
shall be enclosed by a block wall, wrought iron fence, or 
equivalent enclosure, a minimum of four feet in height, as 
approved by the Planning and Development Department. 
(R*) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Rationale: Rear yard enclosures provide physical security 
and also ensure rear yard activities, such as pool areas and 
material storage, are not readily visible. In addition, 
enclosures are visually appealing and benefit the 
neighborhood. 
 
 
 
 
 
(i) (d) 
Walls, fences, and enclosure materials shall not include 
chain link fencing with, or without, plastic or metal slats, 
sheeting, non-decorative corrugated metal and fencing made 
or topped with razor, concertina, OR barbed wire., or 
equivalent as approved by the Planning and Development 
Department. (R*) 
 
 
 
 
Rationale: Certain enclosure materials are not durable, and 
are incompatible with surrounding residences.

-11-                                       Ordinance ________ 
 
 
 
(j) (e) 
Development of two detached dwelling units on a lot, 
duplexes, manufactured homes, or modular homes LOTS 
WITH MORE THAN ONE DWELLING UNIT should provide a 
single, common access drive to parking areas. (P*) (P) 
 
 
 
 
Rationale: Shared access and common parking minimize 
unnecessary curb cuts and breaks in the streetscape. 
Common parking areas also reduce the paved area of a site 
 
 
 
 
(k) (f) 
Single family ALL dwelling units, duplexes, manufactured 
homes, and modular homes should provide the following 
architectural design elements: (P) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(1) 
Consistent detailing and design for each side of the 
building. (P*) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(2) 
Window and door trim as well as accent detailing 
should be incorporated and vary from the primary 
color and materials of the building. (P*)  
 
 
 
 
 
 
(3) 
Garage doors should be provided with windows, 
raised or recessed panels, architectural trim, or single 
doors. (P*) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(4) 
The front entry of the building should be clearly 
defined and identifiable from the street. (P*) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(5)(4) Materials such as untextured concrete, unfinished 
block, steel panels, and shiny or highly reflective 
detailing should not be used as a predominant exterior 
material. (P*)  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Rationale: High quality design promotes neighborhood 
pride and visual interest in residential architecture. 
 
 
 
 
 
(l) (g) 
Garage doors FACING visible from the public street AND 
ATTACHED TO THE PRIMARY DWELLING UNIT should 
not exceed 50% of the house BUILDING width. (P*) (P) 
 
 
 
 
Rationale: Garage doors should not be the aesthetic focus of 
a house; they should compliment COMPLEMENT and 
appear subordinate to the main structure. THIS IS 
PARTICULARLY IMPORTANT IF A DUPLEX OR TRIPLEX 
IS CONSTRUCTED.

-12-                                       Ordinance ________ 
 
 
 
(m) (h) The front entrance, of buildings within 50 feet of the front 
property line, shall face the street and shall not be set back 
more than ten feet behind the front building line. A FRONT 
ENTRY SHALL BE PROVIDED THAT FACES AND IS 
VISIBLE FROM THE STREET, AND INCLUDES AN 
ARCHITECTURAL FEATURE TO CALL ATTENTION TO IT 
(SUCH AS A PORCH, ENTRY PATIO, STOOP, 
AWNING/CANOPY, COURTYARD, OR ARCHWAY).  FOR 
LOTS HAVING MORE THAN ONE DWELLING UNIT, A 
MINIMUM OF ONE UNIT SHALL COMPLY WITH THIS 
REQUIREMENT. (R*) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Rationale: Emphasizing the entrance and front facade adds 
to the residential character of new dwelling units and 
provides eyes on the street. 
 
 
 
[remove picture, do not replace] 
 
Parking—Front Entrance 
 
 
(n) (i) 
Manufactured homes shall provide the following additional 
architectural design elements: 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(1) 
Materials such as wood, hardboard, brick veneer, 
hardiplank, stucco, or horizontal vinyl siding shall be 
used as a predominant exterior material.   (P*) (P) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(2) 
The exposed roof pitch shall be at a minimum of 3/12 
for units twenty-eight (28) feet or less in width and be 
covered with shingles, tile or metal, excluding 
aluminum. (R*)

-13-                                       Ordinance ________ 
 
 
 
 
(3) 
A minimum fifty (50) square foot recessed entry or 
covered porch shall be provided along the front entry 
of the building. (R*) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(4) 
Permanent access to the porch or recessed entry 
should be constructed with materials and colors that 
are compatible with the dwelling unit.  (P*) (P) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(5) 
A masonry stem wall shall be provided under the 
dwelling unit with no more than seven (7) inches of 
exposed foundation measured from highest finished 
grade. (R*) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(6) 
The exposed masonry stem wall color should be 
compatible to the dwelling unit.   (P*) (P) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Rationale: High quality design promotes neighborhood pride 
and visual interest in residential architecture for 
manufactured homes.

Section 608. Residence RESIDENTIAL Districts.

-23-                                       Ordinance ________ 
 
A. 
Purpose. Residential districts are established in recognition of a need to provide 
areas of the City devoted primarily to living functions. In order to preserve these 
areas from the distractions and adverse impacts which can result from immediate 
association with nonresidential uses, these districts are restricted to residential, 
limited nonresidential uses, and appropriate accessory uses. These regulations are 
designed to promote the creation and maintenance of areas in which individuals or 
families may pursue residential activities with reasonable access to open space, 
and streets or roads, in a setting which is not negatively impacted by adjacent 
uses. Limited nonresidential uses may have conditions placed upon them to limit 
impact to adjacent residential uses and in some cases require a public hearing 
through a use permit or special permit process to mitigate any negative impacts to 
surrounding residential uses. 
 
 
The standards contained in this section and Sections 609 through 618 619 AND 
635 are designed to establish the character of new residential development and 
also to preserve the quality of residential uses during their lifetime. When applied to 
new development, these standards are designed to be used in conjunction with the 
development and improvement standards as contained in the Phoenix Subdivision 
Ordinance, Chapter 32 of the City Code.  
 
 
This section applies to the Residential Districts in Sections 609 through 618 619, IN 
ADDITION TO SECTION 635 (PLANNED AREA DEVELOPMENT) WHEN 
SPECIFIED. 
 
*** 
 
B. 
Use of district regulations APPLICABILITY OF DEVELOPMENT OPTIONS. The 
development of any parcel of land shall be in accordance with the standards 
contained in any one development option as contained in Sections 609 through 
619. Development of a single lot or a parcel not being further subdivided and 
located in the RE-35 and R1-18 zoning districts (Sections 609 and 610) shall be in 
accordance with the requirements for the standard subdivision development option 
(a), as contained in Sections 609 and 610. For a single lot or parcel not part of a 
subdivision platted prior to May 1, 1998, not being further subdivided, and located 
in the R1-10 through R-4A zoning districts (Sections 611 through 619), 
development shall be in accordance with the requirements of the conventional 
subdivision option as contained in Sections 611 through 619. 
 
 
All subsequent development shall be in accordance with the initially selected 
development option unless a use permit is obtained. Building on any lot which was 
subdivided or developed prior to the adoption of this chapter shall be done in 
accordance with the standards under which the initial subdivision or development 
occurred. 
 
 
For purposes of conversion to this ordinance, property subdivided prior to May 1, 
1998, shall be considered as follows:

A. 
Purpose. A basic purpose of these regulations is to foster the creation of living 
areas which can assist the establishment of stable, functional neighborhoods. An 
established pattern of living in this metropolitan area reflects a tradition of single-
family occupied dwellings which also emphasize outdoor living. Many of these 
dwellings are thereby located on relatively large urban or suburban lots.

-79-                                       Ordinance ________ 
 
These regulations provide standards for dwellings built at low and moderate 
densities. While the predominant housing type is expected to be single-family 
dwelling, provisions are made for alternative housing types within the same density 
limits.

a. 
A one percent density bonus for each four percent of basic common 
area; or 
b. 
A one percent density bonus for each two percent of improved 
common area. 
c. 
Review and determination of the adequacy of common areas, basic 
and improved, will be part of the development review by the Site 
Planning Division of the Planning and Development Department.

SECTION 10: That Chapter 6, Section 610 (R1-18 Single-Family Residence 
District), is amended to read as follows: 
Section 610. R1-18 Single-Family Residence District. 
A. 
Purpose. A basic purpose of these regulations is to foster the creation of living 
areas which can assist the establishment of stable, functional neighborhoods. An 
established pattern of living in this metropolitan area reflects a tradition of single-
family occupied dwellings which also emphasize outdoor living. Many of these 
dwellings are thereby located on relatively large urban or suburban lots. 
These regulations provide standards for dwellings built at low and moderate 
densities. While the predominant housing type is expected to be single-family 
dwelling, provisions are made for alternative housing types within the same density 
limits. 
B. 
District Regulations. The following tables establishes standards to be used for 
each district in the R1-18 district. Following are definitions of terms used in these 
standards: THE DEFINITIONS OF TERMS USED IN THESE STANDARDS ARE 
FOUND IN SECTION 608.I. 
1. 
Minimum Lot Dimension: The minimum width and depth of lot lines and 
where specified, the minimum area of each lot. 
2. 
Dwelling Unit Density: The total number of dwelling units on a site divided 
by the gross area of the site. Under the planned residential development 
option, additional density may be granted for areas beyond minimum 
required in each district in accordance with the following: 
 
 
a. 
A one percent density bonus for each four percent of basic common 
area; or 
 
 
b. 
A one percent density bonus for each two percent of improved 
common area. 
 
 
c. 
Review and determination of the adequacy of common areas, basic 
and improved, will be part of the development review by the Site 
Planning Division of the Planning and Development Department. 
Open space shall not include: 
 
 
(1) 
Public right-of-way. 
 
 
(2) 
Vehicular drives or parking areas.

-85-                                       Ordinance ________

Private patio areas, narrow strips between or in front of units; 
or, in general, areas reserved for the exclusive use of 
individual tenants. 
 
 
(4) 
Required setback areas at the exterior boundaries of the site. 
 
 
(5) 
Golf courses. 
 
3. 
Perimeter standards: Setbacks for structures which are required at the 
perimeter of a development. These standards shall apply only to lots which 
are created by a subdivision or a project approved under the provisions of 
Section 507. These standards shall not apply in the following circumstances: 
when contiguous developments are to be developed using the same 
development option with the same perimeter standards and are on the same 
preliminary plat or are platted concurrently; when the perimeter of a 
development is contiguous to a permanent open space, such as a natural 
wash, hillside preserve, or existing golf course, the depth of which is at least 
forty feet; or when the development was properly platted prior to September 
13, 1981. 
 
4. 
Building setback: The required separation of buildings from lot lines. 
5. 
Maximum height: The maximum allowed height as measured from natural 
grade which measurement shall be as in chapter 2 
6. 
Lot coverage: The maximum area of a lot occupied by structures and open 
projections as defined in chapter 2 
7. 
Common areas: Required areas in a planned residential development to be 
used and enjoyed by residents of a development and either improved in 
accordance with the standards in chapter 2 or maintained in a natural state 
as approved by the Planning and Development Department. 
8. 
Allowed uses: Refer to the following tables for uses allowed in each district 
and to chapter 2 for definitions of permitted uses. 
9. 
Required review: Where a site plan is required, development shall be 
according to Section 507 of this ordinance. Development on land for which 
neither a subdivision nor a site plan has been approved shall be according 
to standards in option (a), subdivision. 
10 
Required parking: The minimum number of off-street parking spaces to be 
provided and which shall be according to Section 702.A. 
11. 
Street standards: The class of street required to provide access to any 
parcel or subdivided lot within a development.

-100-                                       Ordinance ________ 
 
A. 
Purpose. A basic purpose of these regulations is to foster the creation of living 
areas which can assist the establishment of stable, functional neighborhoods. An 
established pattern of living in this metropolitan area reflects a tradition of single-
family occupied dwellings which also emphasize outdoor living. Many of these 
dwellings are thereby located on relatively large urban or suburban lots. 
These regulations provide standards for dwellings built at low and moderate 
densities. While the predominant housing type is expected to be single-family 
dwelling, provisions are made for alternative housing types within the same density 
limits. 
B. 
District Regulations. The following tables establish standards to be used in the 
R1-6 district. The definitions of terms used in these standards are found in Section 
608.D 608.I.
