PZ-1. AG LAND INVESTORS Case #: Z2015049 Supervisor District: 2 Applicant & Owner: AG Land Investors, LP/ et al. Request: Zone Change from RU-43 to IND-2 and IND-3. Site Location: Located at the southwest corner of 80th Street and Elliot Road. Site Size: Approximately 80 ac. Commission Recommendation: 11/5/15, the Commission voted 7-0 to recommend approval of Z2015049 subject to conditions ‘a’ – ‘g’: a. An Industrial Unit Plan of Development (IUPD) is applied to the site specifically to limit the respective IND-2 and IND-3 permitted uses to those acceptable to the Maricopa County Environmental Services Department (MCESD) that can be accommodated via individual septic systems until such time that either sewer service is provided or effective annexation by the City of Mesa. b. A Plan of Development (POD) is required prior to construction permitting. c. The site may be (re-) developed and used for any use that is statutorily exempt from County zoning authority without POD or permit. d. The following Maricopa County Environmental Services Department (MCESD) conditions shall apply: 1. The new onsite septic system design will be submitted to MCESD for approval. Wastewater discharge from industrial facilities to the septic system will consist of typical sewage only, and will not include any motor oil, gasoline, paint, varnish, solvent, pesticide, fertilizer, or other material not generally associated with toilet flushing, food preparation, laundry, or personal hygiene (AAC R18-9-A309.7a). 2. Any wastewater that is non-typical sewage shall be routed to an interceptor tank and removed from the site by an industrial waste disposal service (as is done for the non-typical sewage wastewater from the industrial buildings). e. The following Planning Engineering conditions shall apply: 1. Elliot Road along the north of the subject premises is under the jurisdiction of MCDOT. Dedication of right-of-way will be required to provide an ultimate right-of-way width of 65 feet (half-width). 2. E. Mesquite Street and S. 80th Street are mid-section alignments. Dedication of right-of-way will be required to provide an ultimate right-of-way width of 40 feet (half-width). Half-width improvements, conforming to the MCDOT Roadway Design Manual will be required. 3. A traffic study will be required with the plan of development (POD) application. Offsite road improvements requirements along Elliot Road are pending the results/recommendations of the traffic study. 4. Provide the required retention volume for the 100 year, 2 hour storm event for the POD area, including adjacent right-of-ways. Provide documentation that the retention basin(s) will drain within 36 hours. 5. Provide a runoff coefficient based on Table 6.3 of the Maricopa County Drainage Policies and Standards. Use 0.95 for commercial/industrial areas and 0.5 for retention areas. 6. Based on the conceptual design nature of the information submitted, changes to the site layout and/or a reduction in the number of buildings may be necessitated by the final engineering design of the drainage infrastructure. 7. Any application for development must demonstrate that historic drainage inflow and outflows flow and characteristics will be maintained. f. The property owner/s and their successors waive claim in diminution in value if the County takes action to rescind approval due to noncompliance with conditions. g. The granting of this change in use of the property has been at the request of the applicant, with the consent of the landowner. The granting of this approval allows the property to enjoy uses in excess of those permitted by the zoning existing on the date of application, subject to conditions. In the event of the failure to comply with any condition, the property shall revert to the zoning that existed on the date of application. It is, therefore, stipulated and agreed that either revocation due to the failure to comply with any conditions, does not reduce any rights that existed on the date of application to use, divide, sell or possess the property and that there would be no diminution in value of the property from the value it held on the date of application due to such revocation of the Zone Change. The Zone Change enhances the value of the property above its value as of the date the Zone Change is granted and reverting to the prior zoning results in the same value of the property as if the Zone Change had never been granted.
