3. 
Eligibility 
 
 
The eligibility criteria for Historic Preservation (HP) overlay zoning and listing on 
the Phoenix Historic Property Register are set forth in Section 807.D of the City of 
Phoenix Zoning Ordinance.  To qualify, a property must demonstrate significance 
in local, regional, state, or national history, architecture, archaeology, engineering, 
or culture, according to one or more of the following criteria: 
 
A. The property is associated with the events that have made a significant 
contribution to the broad pattern of our history; 
B. The property is associated with the lives of persons significant in our past; 
C. The property embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or 
method of construction, represents the work of a master, possesses high 
artistic values, or represents a significant and distinguishable entity whose 
components may lack individual distinction; or 
D. The property has yielded or may likely yield information integral to the 
understanding of our prehistory or history. 
 
In addition to the significance requirement, the property must also be at least 50 
years old or have achieved significance within the past 50 years if it is of 
exceptional importance.  The property must also possess sufficient integrity of 
location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling, and association to 
convey its significance. 
 
The property at 2262 Grand Avenue, known historically as the Arrow 
Motel/Rainbow Motel, is significant under Criterion A for its association with 
tourism in Phoenix during the mid-20th century.  Dating to the 1930s, the property 
meets the 50-year age requirement and has good historic integrity, with few 
alterations since the 1950s.

4. 
Significance 
 
 
In the early 20th century, recreational activities and leisure time became 
attainable for a wider swath of the country through shifts in labor laws and 
affordable automobiles. Roadsides were adapted into impromptu campgrounds, 
then later formal auto courts and motels. A small motel operation could be 
erected with a handful of frame-and-canvas cabins. These businesses were 
mutable with time and consumer demands; a handful of cabins in a neat row with 
carports could be remodeled into a continuous building with carports converted to 
rooms. If there was land on which to expand, one row of rooms might be modified 
into an L or a U-shape. Amenities were often upgraded along with motel 
expansions. 
 
The Arrow Motel/Rainbow Motel, constructed ca. 1937 in adobe, partially 
illustrates typical auto court/motel history. When the Arrow Motel opened, its 
Grand Avenue frontage was the alignment of U.S. Highways 60, 70 and 89. 
Phoenix was a major southwestern crossroads where those highways joined U.S. 
Highway 80 at Grand Avenue, 7th Avenue and Van Buren Street. Grand Avenue 
and Van Buren Street were once lined with dozens of motels like the Arrow, as 
well as much larger and later examples, but these properties have dwindled 
drastically in the last 25 years, making the Arrow Motel/Rainbow Motel a rare 
surviving property type.  
 
The Arrow Motel/Rainbow Motel was owned by a series of husband-and-wife 
teams. The earliest information available indicates six units with open parking 
between buildings along the south/southeast property line. By 1949, a seventh 
cabin was added with an owner/manager’s unit at the north end of the property. 
Unlike other contemporaneous motels, the Arrow never expanded into an L or U-
shape, and never had a pool in the middle of the property.  
 
In 1952, the name was changed from Arrow to Rainbow Motel with new 
ownership. Four years later, the parking spaces between cabins were infilled with 
smaller living units; two masonry buildings with four units were also constructed at 
the northwest corner of the property. In 1967, Grand Avenue was widened and 
the 24’ x 24’ attached office at the western end of the original row of cabins was 
removed. To replace it, the owners successfully applied for a variance to install a 
single-wide trailer with a masonry addition at the center of the property. This 
structure remains and has been stylistically integrated into the property. 
 
Grand Avenue was widened again in 2013 to provide a designated right-hand turn 
lane onto Encanto Boulevard. The original proposal called for purchase and 
demolition of the property by the Arizona Department of Transportation. The

Staff Report: Z-71-19-7 & Z-22-20-7) 
July 24, 2020 
Page 8 of 16 
 
 
 
 
project was modified to include the removal of only one of the 1952, two-unit 
buildings to spare the rest of the motel property. Currently, there are 14 units total 
on the property, and the motel functions as an apartment complex.  
 
As part of the proposed two-story, detached apartment complex proposed for the 
east (rear) of the lot, the ca. 1976 double-wide mobile home will be removed. 
None of the other four buildings on the lot will be disturbed for the proposed 
project.  The property will still retain its eligibility for historic designation under 
Criterion A. 
 
 
 
GENERAL PLAN LAND USE MAP DESIGNATIONS 
5. 
The General Plan Land Use Map 
designation for the subject site is  
Commercial. Because the 
Commercial Land Use designation 
accommodates multifamily 
residential at varying scales and 
levels of intensity,the proposed use 
is considered consistent with the 
land use designation. 
 
The properties to the north, west, 
and east are also designated 
Commercial. 
 
The properties to the southwest 
beginning at the centerline of Grand 
Avenue are designated Industrial. 
The properties to the northwest is an 
additional Department of Public 
Safety facility designated Public / 
Quasi Public on the General Plan 
Land Use Map.

PROPOSAL 
6. 
Site Plan 
The applicant is proposing to 
preserve several historic motel 
buildings which have already been 
converted to apartment. The historic 
buildings are not in compliance with 
the current setback requirements of 
the zoning ordinance as evident in 
the development standards table. In 
addition to the historic buildings, the 
applicant is proposing an additional 
two-story building at the northern 
portion of the site bringing the total 
site to 35 dwelling units.  
 
Staff is recommending a series of 
stipulations to promote walking, 
bicycling, and public transportation: 
Figure E: Conceptual Site Plan 
 
Source: Applicant 
 
• Stipulation No. 2: Detached and shaded sidewalks (75 percent) along 
Encanto Boulevard. 
• Stipulation No. 3: Parking lots shaded to a minimum of 25 percent by trees. 
• Stipulation No. 4: Bicycle parking provided for residents and guests. 
• Stipulation No. 6: Restricting the maximum height of solid (opaque) fences 
and walls to 36 inches between the front plane of the new buildings and 
Encanto Boulevard. 
 
  
7. 
Elevations 
The applicant is proposing the 
preservation of the existing historic 
motel buildings to multifamily and 
the construction of two two-story 
multifamily buildings. The existing 
historic buildings had been 
converted to multifamily and no 
additional changes are proposed at 
this time.

The proposed new construction is designed to complement the historic buildings 
on the site with stucco, wood accents including balconies, and a similar color 
pallet. To add additional visual interest from Encanto Boulevard and to promote 
pedestrian activity, staff is recommending Stipulation No. 5 which requires all 
units adjacent to Encanto Boulevard to have a porch, patio, windows, or balconies 
oriented to the sidewalk.

8. 
Applicable Development Standards 
C-3 (General Commercial) allows multifamily development at R-3 (Multifamily 
Residence District) Standards. An applicant may receive additional density, up to 
R-5 (Multifamily Residence District) standards, subject to the approval of a 
Density Waiver granted by the City Council.  
 
Staff is recommending Stipulation No. 1 which requires the development utilize 
the R-3 (Multifamily Residence District) zoning development standards, the 
density maximum permitted in R-3A (Multifamily Residence District) zoning, and 
the perimeter landscape planting standards contained in C-3 (General 
Commercial District) zoning.  
 
By reference to R-3 (Multifamily Residence District) zoning development 
standards, the development is restricted to a maximum height of two stories or 30 
feet for the first 150 feet and then a one foot increase in height for every 
additional five feet increase in height, to a maximum of 48 feet high up to four 
stories. The purpose of this standard is to promote compatibility with the context 
of the surrounding area.  
 
 
9. 
Pedestrian Pathways 
The site plan depicts a series of pedestrian pathways between all units, the 
central amenity area, and the public sidewalks. Staff is recommending Stipulation 
No. 7 to require clearly defined and accessible pathways between all building 
entrances and exits and the public sidewalks and, where pathways cross 
vehicular maneuvering areas.

STUDIES AND POLICIES 
10. Tree and Shade Master Plan:  
The Tree and Shade Master Plan encourages treating the urban forest as 
infrastructure to ensure the trees are an integral part of the City’s planning and 
development process. Sidewalks on the street frontages should be detached from 
the curbs to allow trees to be planted on both sides of the sidewalk to provide 
thermal comfort for pedestrians and to reduce the urban heat island effect.  
 
Staff is recommending the following stipulations to advance the goals of the Tree 
and Shade Master Plan: 
• Stipulation No. 1: Utilizing C-3 (General Commercial) landscape standards 
for perimeter setbacks which will produce an enhancement over standard 
multifamily standards. 
• Stipulation No. 2: Requiring detached and shaded sidewalks (75 percent) 
along Encanto Boulevard with enhanced tree planting standards. 
• Stipulation No. 3: Requiring parking lots be shaded to a minimum of 25 
percent by trees. 
 
 
 
11. Complete Streets Guidelines:  
In 2014, the City of Phoenix City Council adopted the Complete Streets Guiding 
Principles. The principles are intended to promote improvements that provide an 
accessible, safe, connected transportation system to include all modes, such as 
bicycles, pedestrians, transit, and vehicles. 
 
Staff is recommending Stipulation No. 4 which requires bicycle parking provided 
for residents and guests. Further, Stipulation No. 5 promotes porches and patios 
oriented to Encanto Boulevard which will support bicycling, walking, and public 
transit use. Stipulation No. 7 requires a pedestrian connection to the public 
sidewalks along both Encanto Boulevard and Grand Avenue. 
 
 
 
12. Reimagine Phoenix:  
As part of the Reimagine Phoenix Initiative, the City of Phoenix is committed to 
increasing the waste diversion rate to 40 percent by 2020 and to better manage 
its solid waste resources. The provision of recycling containers was not 
addressed in the applicant’s submittals. 
 
 
13. Housing Phoenix:  
In June 2020, the Phoenix City Council approved the Housing Phoenix Plan. This 
Plan contains policy initiatives for the development and preservation of housing 
with vision of creating a stronger and more vibrant Phoenix through increased 
housing options for residents at all income levels and family sizes.  Phoenix’s 
rapid population growth and housing underproduction has led to a need for over

Staff Report: Z-71-19-7 & Z-22-20-7) 
July 24, 2020 
Page 12 of 16 
 
 
 
 
163,000 new housing units.  Current shortages of housing supply relative to 
demand are a primary reason why housing costs are increasing.  
 
The proposed development supports the Plan’s goal of preserving or creating 
50,000 housing units by 2030 by contributing to a variety housing types that will 
address the supply shortage at a more rapid pace while using vacant land in a 
more sustainable fashion. 
 
 
 
COMMUNITY CORRESPONDENCE: 
14. As of the writing of this report, staff has not received any correspondence 
regarding this proposed rezoning application.  
 
 
 
INTERDEPARTMENTAL COMMENTS: 
15. The City of Phoenix Public Works Department, Flood Plain Management Division, 
determined that the site is not in a Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA), but 
located in a Shaded Zone X, on panel 2205 L of the Flood Insurance Rate Maps 
(FIRM) dated October 16, 2013. 
 
 
 
16. The Public Transit Department did not have any comments or request any 
stipulations. 
 
 
 
17. The Street Transportation Department provided their standard comment 
requesting Stipulation No. 8. The Street Transportation Department’s Pedestrian 
Safety Coordinator commented on the following topic areas: 
• Delineating all pedestrian pathways with special attention to crossings of 
vehicular maneuvering areas (Stipulation No. 7) 
• Requiring detached sidewalks with landscaping between the back of curb 
and sidewalk (Stipulation No. 2) 
• Providing secure bicycle storage on site (Stipulation No. 4) 
• If a perimeter fence or wall is desired, it should be view-fence (Stipulation 
No. 6). 
• Requiring R9-3 and R9-3BP (“Use Crosswalk”) signs along Encanto 
Boulevard and Grand Avenue near pedestrian exits. 
• Requiring traffic calming at all driveway exits. 
 
The bulleted comments without stipulation references were taken into 
consideration and deemed to be most appropriate for the Site Plan Review 
process rather than through a zoning entitlement. 
 
 
 
18. The Parks and Recreation Department commented that they have no trail or trail 
easements relevant to the request.

Staff Report: Z-71-19-7 & Z-22-20-7) 
July 24, 2020 
Page 13 of 16 
 
 
 
 
19. The Fire Department indicated there are no problems anticipated with the case 
and that the site and/or buildings shall comply with the Phoenix Fire Code. 
Further, the Department commented that they do not know the water supply at 
this site and noted that additional water supply may be required to meet the 
required fire flow per the Phoenix Fire Code. 
 
 
 
20. The Water Services Department commented that the proposed site has existing 
water and sewer mains on site. They also provided a standard comment: 
Capacity is a dynamic condition that can change over time due to a variety of 
factors. It is the City's intent to provide water and sewer service. However, the 
requirements and assurances for water and sewer service are determined during 
the site plan application review. For any given property, water and sewer 
requirements may vary over time to be less or more restrictive depending on the 
status of the City’s water and sewer infrastructure. 
 
 
 
OTHER: 
21. The site is located in a larger area identified as being archaeologically sensitive. If 
further review by the City of Phoenix Archaeology Office determines the site and 
immediate area to be archaeologically sensitive, and if no previous archaeological 
projects have been conducted within this project area, it is recommended that 
archaeological Phase I data testing of this area be conducted. Phase II 
archaeological data recovery excavations may be necessary based upon the 
results of the testing. A qualified archaeologist must make this determination in 
consultation with the City of Phoenix Archaeologist. In the event archaeological 
materials are encountered during construction, all ground disturbing activities 
must cease within a 33-foot radius of the discovery and the City of Phoenix 
Archaeology Office must be notified immediately and allowed time to properly 
assess the materials. This is addressed in Stipulation Nos. 10 – 12. 
 
 
 
22. The property owner shall record documents that disclose the existence, and 
operational characteristics of Sky Harbor Airport to future owners or tenants of the 
property. The form and content of such documents shall be according to the 
templates and instructions provided which have been reviewed and approved by 
the City Attorney. The comment is addressed in Stipulation No. 9. 
 
 
 
23. Development and use of the site is subject to all applicable codes and 
ordinances. Zoning approval does not negate other ordinance requirements. 
Other formal actions such as, but not limited to, zoning adjustments and 
abandonments may be required.
