BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT REPORT
CASE NO: OV 10-05-09
Hearing Date: December 27, 2005
Agenda Item No.: 1
Prepared By: Dee Widero, Senior Zoning Inspector
REQUEST: BERTHA E. CAMPBELL, REQUEST FOR A VARIANCE TO
INCLUDE A FULL KITCHEN IN A PROPOSED GUEST HOUSE
FOR AN ELDERLY PARENT IN THE RANCHO VERDE
SUBDIVISION, LOT 167. SUBJECT PROPERTY: (PARCEL
#225-09-1880), 1032 W. WILKERSON DRIVE.
REQUEST SPECIFICS:
Bertha Campbell is requesting to include a full kitchen in a proposed guest house, for
an elderly parent.
SITE LOCATION:
Rancho Verde subdivision can be reached by traveling east on Calle Concordia from La
Canada Drive to Raleigh Drive, turn north (left), the first street to the east is Wilkerson
Drive, turn and follow around to 1032 W. Wilkerson, on the left side of the street. The
property has been posted with a notice of hearing.
NOTIFICATION:
All property owners within 300 feet of this property were notified by mailing of this
hearing. The property is posted with a notice of hearing and the hearing was advertised in
the Daily Territorial. At the time of this report preparation, staff had not received any
public comment in support of or in opposition to the request. On December 9, 2005, staff
heard from a neighbor, her concern was not the full kitchen ("I don't give a hoot about
the kitchen, they will do that later anyway"),y ), but the lights from vehicles pulling into the
rear of the yard, shinning into her home at night. If this is approved, would we place a
condition to relieve that issue?
SITE ANALYSIS:
Rancho Verde is an 84-lot subdivision recorded in November 18, 1971; in Pima County
and zoned CR-1. A portion of this subdivision was annexed into Oro Valley (all except
lots 87-116) in September of 1984.
Surrounding properties are: North — Saddle Valley II, zoned R1-43; South and West —
Unincorporated Pima County, zoned CR-1; East — private parcels, zoned R1-144. Lot
167 does not have any topographical issues.
.. 1 V 1
PLAN ANALYSIS:
The proposed guest house is an allowable use for an R1-43 zone. A full kitchen
facility is considered a dwelling unit; only one dwelling unit is permitted in a single
family residential district.
SUMMARY:
Staff finding of facts:
• A guest house for R1-43 is an allowable use.
• A full kitchen is considered a dwelling unit.
• The home located at 1022 W. Wilkerson is currently building a guest house,
without a full kitchen.
• The home located at 1045 W. Wilkerson, does not have a guest house, they did
add a garage.
• The home at 1052 W. Wilkerson, appears to have a guest house, we do not have
any history on the addition.
• The home at 9370 N. Raleigh, appears to have a guest home, we do not have any
history on the addition.
The Board of Adjustment should consider the following findings in making its decision:
A. That there are special circumstances or conditions applying to the property
referred to in the application including its size, shape, topography, location
nr surroundings do not other properties the district; and
..JHI ....... bllll`U which ..�.� lay. apply to other properties in ui d
B. That special circumstances were not created by the owner or applicant;
and
C. That the authorizing of the variance is necessary for the preservation and
enjoyment of substantial property rights; and
D. That any variance granted imposes such conditions as will assure that the
authorizing of the adjustment shall not constitute a grant of special
privileges inconsistent with the limitations upon other properties in the
vicinity and zone in which such property is located; and
E. That the authorizing of the variance will not be materially detrimental to
persons residing in the vicinity, to adjacent property, to the neighborhood
or the public welfare in general.
SUGGESTED MOTION:
The Board may wish to consider the following motions:
I move to approve OV 10-05-09, a request to allow a full kitchen in a proposed guest
house.
OR
I move to approve OV 10-05-09 as submitted by the applicant with the following
stipulations:
• Vehicle lamps shall be adequately screened from adjacent properties.
• Outdoor lighting for any accessory building and/or guest house shall have full
cutoff fixtures installed under canopies, building overhangs, or roof eaves. Light
fixtures shielded by the canopy, building overhang, or roof eaves in such a
manner that no lamp or vertical element of a lens or diffuser is visible at the
property line.
• This guest house shall only be used to house guests of the occupants of the
principal building and which is never rented or offered for rent.
OR
I move to deny OV 10-05-09 finding that: (Board to state reason why the variance cannot be
granted).

Board of Adjustment Application
For: Zoning Variance
Nature of Request:
We request a variance to allow for a full kitchen facility in our proposed guest home on
our property at 1032 West Wilkinson Drive.
After the demise of my Mother's husband, of forty five years plus, in January of this
year, she finds herself suddenly alone with a home and yard that is too much for her to
care for.
Our Mother is very strong willed and controls her diabetes with her diet. She loves life
and we hope she lives for a long time. We would like to provide her with a safe home
where she can be self sufficient, independent, be able to cook for herself,her friends and
family and yet be close in case of an emergency.
For example, a few weeks ago she had a dizzy spell and could not keep her balance or
walk she was scared and in tears when she finally called for help. We live at least thirty
minutes away but managed to get to her and bring her to our home,where she stayed
until her visit to the doctor. Thank god this was not life threatening.
I am the original owner of this property and only have the neighborhood's best interest at
heart. Looking forward to providing my Mother with a new home where she will be
surrounded by family, friends and good neighbors.
To summarize,we wish to provide Mom with the quality of life she deserves and is
entitled to for the rest of her life.
Thank you for your consideration of this request. Should I be able to answer any further
questions please do not hesitate to call me at 520 250-4811.
Sincerely,
B. E. Campbell
1032 W. Wilkinson Drive
Oro Valley
Attachments: Application, Doctor's letter dated 10-27-2005, Petition of immediate
neighbors having no objection to allowing a full kitchen in our guest home. Site Plan,

Re: Lilly Hobbs
To whom it may concern:
My patient, Mrs Hobbs, is a 78 year old woman who has diabetes and
coronary heart disease. These are chronic, irreversible, and progressive
diseases, which are anticipated to cause increasing debilitation in the
coming years.
Her daughter has wisely arranged to have a new residence built for her
mother adjacent to her own, so that she will be available to assist her
mother with her daily needs now and into the future.
Mrs Hobbs is fairly independent thus far. Her residence must therefore
be able to accommodate her independent living as long as possible. This
means that she must have a full kitchen, including an oven and range as
well as refrigerator.

DEC Z7 2005
To: Oro Valley Board of Adjustment
Re: OV 10-05-09 Bertha Campbell's request for variance
My concerns are the neighbors are building guest houses in this
neighborhood claiming it is for their elderly parent; however, the guest houses
end up being rental property. Why would a full kitchen be necessary for an
elderly parent? If a full kitchen is allowed, then this allows them to "claim"
it's for an elderly parent but turn around and use the guest house as rental
property.
I purchased my property to have a little peace and quiet- a little
privacy. I now have, from just one rental property, lights that are beaming in
my bedroom and kitchen window from cars that are driving on the easements
at the back of my property. Now I have two more "guest houses" going up
behind my house. It's bad enough I have numerous cars that are going up and
down the easements with their lights shinning in my home.
I was under the impression the easements are only for utilities access-
not to be used as a public street. What streets are being used from the primary
residence to these guest homes? I would request Oro Valley look into these
properties being used as "rentals" and I request they look into the easements
being used for public streets. This needs to be regulated.
I only object to the full kitchen because, at some point in time, the
home will end up being a rental property. Neighborhoods with rentals end up
decreasing the property value. I believe it's Oro Valley's responsibility to stop
the guest houses as being used for rental property, as well as stop the vehicles
using the easements.
Thank you for looking into this matter.

Chair Martin swore in the witness that was intending to testify.
Bertha Campbell, 1032 West Wilkenson Drive, explained that the request was to allow
for the installation of a full kitchen facility in her guest home. She explained that this
would provide a more efficient living quarters and enhance the quality of life for her
elderly mother.
Member Kessler pointed out the Town's Zoning Code currently only allows for one (1 )
dwelling on the lot. She explained that by placing a kitchen in the guest home, by
definition, it would be considered a second dwelling. She explained that she
understood the applicants desire to make the additional changes, but the Board had
specific criteria to follow. She explained that if the request was granted, it would be
granting the applicant a special suspension from the rules and the possibility of setting
a precedent for similar future request. Chair Martin agreed.
12-27-05 Minutes 2
Board of Adjustment
Regular Meeting
Dee Widero, Senior Zoning Inspector, reported that the applicant was requesting to
include a full kitchen in a guest house for an elderly parent. She reported that
the home was located in Rancho Verde, which was an 84-lot subdivision that was
originally recorded in November 18, 1971 with Pima County. She explained that a
portion of the subdivision was annexed into Oro Valley in September of 1984. However,
the guest house was an allowable use for an R1-43 zone, but a full kitchen facility
would be considered a dwelling unit in Oro Valley, and only one(1) dwelling unit per a
single family residential was permitted.
Staff finding of facts:
• A guest house for R1-43 is an allowable use.
• A full kitchen is considered a dwelling unit.
• The home located at 1022 West VVilkenson is currently building a guest house,
without a full kitchen.
• The home located at 1045 West VVilkenson, does not have a guest house, they
did add a garage.
• The home at 1052 West Wilkenson, appears to have a guest house, we do not
have any history on the addition.
• The home at 9370 North Raleigh, appears to have a guest home, we do not have
any history on the addition.
MOTION: Vice Chair Schannep moved to DENY Case No. OV10-05-09. Member
Kessler seconded the motion.
Discussion: Vice Chair Schannep stated that he could not support the request for
the following reasons; (1 ) the Zoning Code did not allow for a full kitchen in a guest
home. (2) guest houses are intended for a guest and a full size kitchen implies that
there would be a full time resident and the property was not zoned for such usage. He
stated that the Board had to adhere to the five (5) findings, and to approve the variance
would be granting special permission.
Chair Martin stated that the Zoning Code clearly did not allow for such a revision.
Member Hickey stated that he was in su pport of the five (5) criteria, but felt that this type
of situation had presented itself in the past. He explained that there should be
some consideration in the Zoning Code regarding these types of cases as well as being
brought forward to Town Council for review. He said that he intended to do follow-up
work regarding the matter. He explained that a change in the Code could certainly be
used in providing help to family members such as the elderly who might need
assistance.

information from staff and the applicant to move forward with the case, but that she
would opened the public hearing to give those individuals that were interested an
opportunity to speak.

The following Citizens were in favor of the variance being granted. They believed it
did not detract from the look of the subdivision or the spirit of the law as well as the
fact that all parties that were involved with the development of the site were
responsible for the error; and the revision would not harm the homeowner;the
builder has acknowledged their mistake and has since apologized, but the error was
not done deliberately.
