The requested PUD zoning is consistent with the proposed General Plan Land Use Map designations. General Plan Land Use Map Source: City of Phoenix Planning and Development Department PROPOSAL 4. The proposal was developed utilizing the PUD zoning district. The Planned Unit Development (PUD) is intended to create a built environment that is superior to Staff Report: Z-25-24-8 August 5, 2024 Page 6 of 20 that produced by conventional zoning districts and design guidelines. Using a collaborative and comprehensive approach, an applicant authors and proposes standards and guidelines that are tailored to the context of a site on a case by case basis. Where the PUD Development Narrative is silent on a requirement, the applicable Zoning Ordinance provisions will be applied. 5. Below is a summary of the proposed standards for the subject site as described in the attached PUD Development Narrative date stamped July 24, 2024. The proposed standards were designed to allow single-family detached, single-family attached, and golf course uses that would generate housing and a community asset within the Laveen Village. Conceptual Development Plan and Permitted Uses The PUD proposes a regulatory framework structured around the creation of splitting the subject site into five development units. Development Unit A is located on the south portion of the subject site, along Baseline Road. Development A allows single-family attached or detached residential uses with a minimum lot width of 35 feet. Located along the majority of the 59th Avenue alignment, Development Unit B allows single-family detached residential units with a minimum lot width of 50 feet. Development Unit C is located along Southern Avenue and allows for single-family attached or detached residential uses with varying lot sizes. Located on the northeast corner of the subject site, along 55th Avenue, Development Unit D allows for single-family detached with a minimum lot width of 45 feet. The remainder of the site is located within Development Unit E and will allow a golf course with a clubhouse for event and recreational opportunities. Development Units Source: The Score at Cottonfields PUD Narrative Staff Report: Z-25-24-8 August 5, 2024 Page 7 of 20 Recommended updates to the PUD Narrative: • Staff recommends Stipulation No. 1.c. to update the acreage within the PUD narrative to align with the submitted legal descriptions. Development Standards The PUD development narrative proposes a unique set of development standards for development units A through E. A summary of the standards are provided below. Development Standard Development Unit A Development Unit C Maximum Density/Units 7.5 dwelling units per acre 9.5 dwelling units per acre Minimum Lot Width 35 feet None Minimum Perimeter Building Setbacks Fronting street right-of-way 10 feet 10 feet Siding street right-of-way 15 feet 15 feet Adjacent to property line 10 feet 10 feet Adjacent to GC (Golf Course District) zoning 5 feet 5 feet Minimum Interior Building Setbacks Front 0 feet 0 feet Rear 0 feet 0 feet Side 0 feet 0 feet Street side 0 feet 0 feet Adjacent to GC (Golf Course District) zoning 0 feet 0 feet Minimum Landscape Setbacks Adjacent to perimeter streets 0 feet 0 feet Maximum Building Height 2 stories, 30 feet maximum 2 stories, 30 feet maximum Maximum Lot Coverage 100% for individual lots; 50% for other parcels or tracts with accessory structures 100% for individual lots; 50% for other parcels or tracts with accessory structures Minimum Open Space 8% of the gross area 8% of the gross area Staff Report: Z-25-24-8 August 5, 2024 Page 8 of 20 Development Standard Development Unit B Development Unit D Maximum Density/Units 4.63 dwelling units per acre 5.65 dwelling units per acre Minimum Lot Width 50 feet 45 feet Minimum Perimeter Building Setbacks Adjacent to a street 15 feet 15 feet Rear 5 feet (1-story); 10 feet (2-stories) 10 feet (1-story); 20 feet (2-stories) Side 5 feet (1-story); 5 feet (2-stories) 5 feet (1-story); 5 feet (2-stories) Adjacent to GC (Golf Course District) zoning 10 feet 10 feet Minimum Interior Building Setbacks Street Side 10 feet 10 feet Front 10 feet 10 feet Rear 0 feet 0 feet Side 0 feet 0 feet Minimum Landscape Setbacks Adjacent to perimeter streets 15 feet average; 10 feet minimum 15 feet average; 10 feet minimum Maximum Building Height 2 stories, 30 feet maximum 2 stories, 30 feet maximum Maximum Lot Coverage 50% 50% Minimum Open Space 8% of the gross area 8% of the gross area Development Standard Development Unit E Maximum Density/Units N/A Minimum Perimeter Building Setbacks North 30 feet; 5 feet for accessory structures East 30 feet; 5 feet for accessory structures South 30 feet; 5 feet for accessory structures West 30 feet; 5 feet for accessory structures Maximum Building Height 2 stories, 30 feet maximum Maximum Lot Coverage 5% Minimum Open Space N/A Several of the PUD standards exceed the Zoning Ordinance standards, such as open space and landscape buffers. The proposed PUD allows for a maximum number of 415 residential units. Members of the community expressed concern with the timing of how the golf course and single-family residences would develop, sharing a desire for the golf course to be built in conjunction with the residential uses. Staff recommends Stipulation No. 2 which would require the Certificate of Completion for the golf course grading and drainage and the Certificate of Completion or sign off by the site inspector verifying the landscape improvements prior to the Certificate of Occupancy for any single-family residences. Staff Report: Z-25-24-8 August 5, 2024 Page 9 of 20 Landscape Standards The PUD narrative proposes numerous landscaping enhancements that include landscaping buffers, shading along most public sidewalks, and enhanced planting standards that exceed the Zoning Ordinance. The landscaping will provide for a pedestrian-friendly environment with 75 percent shade on Southern Avenue and Baseline Road, exceeding the minimum requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. Furthermore, all landscape setbacks and buffers will have larger caliper trees including two-inch, one and a half inch, and one inch tree sizes. Staff recommends the following modifications to the PUD Narrative which updates landscaping along the streetscape: • Stipulation No. 1.g. will add planting standards for the landscape strip located between back of curb and sidewalk along 59th Avenue. • Stipulation No. 1.k. will add planting standards for the landscape strip located between the back of curb and sidewalk along Southern Avenue. • Stipulation No. 1.l. will add planting standards for the landscape strip located between back of curb and sidewalk along Baseline Road. Parking Standards The PUD proposes to comply with the Zoning Ordinance minimum parking standards per Section 702. The PUD also requires bicycle parking within all development units. Development units A through D are required to provide 1 bicycle parking space per every 10 units. Development Unit E requires 1 bicycle parking space for every three golf course holes. Bicycle parking shall be provided within common areas and through inverted U or artistic racks. The PUD Narrative also includes a requirement for EV parking within Development Unit E. A minimum of four EV parking stalls shall be provided at the clubhouse that would serve the future golf course. Recommended updates to the PUD Narrative: • Stipulation No. 1.d, 1.m. and 1.o. clarifies the electric vehicle parking stalls shall have installed infrastructure requirement language. Design Guidelines The PUD Narrative proposes numerous architectural styles including craftsman bungalow, contemporary, ranch, traditional southwest, luxury townhomes, and townhome villas. Each architectural style proposes a list of features that include pitched roofs, hand-crafted stone, faux stone, barrel tile roofs, arches, patios, and oversized windows. The design guidelines section does not have a minimum number of primary or accent materials. As a result, staff recommends Stipulation No. 3 to require all residential elevations to be reviewed by the Planning Hearing Officer through the public hearing process. The residential elevations must have a minimum of three architectural embellishments, a minimum of three accent Staff Report: Z-25-24-8 August 5, 2024 Page 10 of 20 materials, 25 percent of the building frontage must have accent materials, and garage doors must have design embellishments. This is addressed in Stipulation No. 3. Fences/Walls The proposed development will include secure perimeter walls for all new residential development, as well as perimeter fencing for the golf course in order to protect the privacy of existing and future residents. Theme perimeter walls will be located along the perimeter of the subject site, except along the east and southeast corner. Perimeter theme wall requirements include CMU block in dark auburn color with decorative stone veneer theme columns and a concrete cap. Full view fencing will be provided along Development Unit A, clubhouse entry, and between the existing split view fencing along the east perimeter. Full view fencing requirements include 75 percent view fencing, steel tubular fencing, stone veneer columns, and concrete caps. Finally, partial view fencing is proposed within the proposed development, facing the future redeveloped golf course. Partial view fencing requires a minimum of 50 percent view fencing, dark auburn CMU block, tubular steel, and stone veneer columns. Shade The Development Narrative includes a range from 50 to 75 percent shade cover to be provided over public sidewalks, depending on the area. The required shade standards along many of the public sidewalks exceed the Zoning Ordinance requirements. Staff recommends updates to the shade provisions when adjacent to public streets to clarify that shading requirements might change depending on the SRP easement. These updates are addressed in the Streetscape Standards section of the PUD Narrative (Stipulation No. 1.h.). Signage This section of the PUD Narrative includes provisions for on-premise signage and new residential monumentation. This site is not eligible for off-premise signs. The site is not within 300 feet of a freeway. Existing and entry monumentation is proposed within development units A, B, C, and D. A maximum of two signs are permitted at each entrance of the residential subdivision and will have a maximum height of five feet. Existing golf course signage, located along Baseline Road and Southern Avenue, will be revitalized to match the new design standards found in the PUD Narrative. A maximum of two signs are permitted at each driveway and will be a maximum of eight feet in height. Staff Report: Z-25-24-8 August 5, 2024 Page 11 of 20 Sustainability The Development Narrative proposes several options to incorporate sustainability principals. Below is a highlight of some of the options: • EV parking provided at the clubhouse for the golf course. • Smart irrigation controllers shall be utilized within development units A through D and future golf course. • Pressure regulating sprinkler heads to reduce water waste. • Two green infrastructure techniques. • Utilizing Low-Water-Use/Drought-Tolerant Plant List within single-family developments and within the golf course area. • A minimum of 50 percent of residential driveways shall provide permeable surfaces. AREA PLANS, OVERLAY DISTRICT, AND INITIATIVES 6. Laveen Southwest Growth Study The site is located within the boundaries of the Laveen Southwest Growth Study, which was developed in 1997 to analyze the existing conditions of the Laveen Village and provide a land use and design planning framework to help shape the growth that Laveen was starting to experience, while accounting for newly annexed farmland as well as the future development of the South Mountain Freeway Loop, which has since been completed. This plan designates the project site as Parks/Open Space. The majority of the subject site is consistent with the Laveen Southwest Growth Study Land Use Map designation. The proposed residential designations, although not consistent with the designation, will provide a mix of housing opportunities within the Laveen Village that is consistent with the surrounding land uses. Laveen Southwest Growth Study Land Use Map Source: Planning and Development Department Staff Report: Z-25-24-8 August 5, 2024 Page 12 of 20 The Laveen Southwest Growth Study also outlines specific design policies and standards for various types of development that will enhance Laveen’s built environment while remaining respectful of its agricultural heritage. The study encourages all new development to use durable, high quality building materials and to provide enhanced building design that will contribute to the character of the area. As stipulated, the Development Narrative proposes a variety of building materials on future buildings with a focus on maintaining the character of the area. 7. Housing Phoenix Plan 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 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 underutilized land in a more sustainable fashion. 8. Complete Streets Guiding Principles In 2014, the Phoenix City Council adopted the Complete Streets Guiding Principles. The principles are intended to promote improvements that provide an accessible, safe, and connected transportation system to include all modes, such as bicycles, pedestrians, transit, and vehicles. The PUD proposed several provisions that are consistent with Complete Streets Guiding Principles including detached sidewalks along street frontages to promote a safe pedestrian atmosphere. Additionally, a Complete Streets section is included in the narrative which includes bicycle lanes along 59th Avenue and Southern Avenue, street design which will allow for multi-modal mobility, and design techniques to reduce direct sunlight exposure to pedestrians and cyclists. Staff recommends the following modifications to the PUD Narrative to enhance the streetscape standards: • Stipulation No. 1.e. clarifies that all street improvements along 59th Avenue will include outparcel APN: 104-80-523A. • Stipulation No. 1.f. increases the minimum sidewalk width to 6 feet along 59th Avenue. • Stipulation No. 1.g. adds planting standards for the landscape strip located between back of curb and sidewalk along 59th Avenue. • Stipulation No. 1.h. clarifies that street improvements along 59th Avenue are subject to the approval of SRP. • Stipulation No. 1.i. clarifies that all street improvements along Southern Staff Report: Z-25-24-8 August 5, 2024 Page 13 of 20 Avenue include outparcels APN: 104-80-523A and APN: 104-80-004C. • Stipulation No. 1.j. increases the minimum sidewalk width to 6 feet. • Stipulation No. 1.k. adds planting standards for the landscape strip located between the back of curb and sidewalk along Southern Avenue. • Stipulation No. 1.l. will add planting standards for the landscape strip located between back of curb and sidewalk along Baseline Road. 9. Transportation Electrification Action Plan In June 2022, the Phoenix City Council approved the Transportation Electrification Action Plan. The current market desire for the electrification of transportation is both a national and global phenomenon, fueled by a desire for better air quality, a reduction in carbon emissions, and a reduction in vehicle operating and maintenance costs. Businesses, governments and the public are signaling strong future demand for electric vehicles (EVs), and many automobile manufacturers have declared plans for a transition to fully electric offerings within the coming decade. This Plan contains policy initiatives to prepare the City for a future filled with more EVs, charging infrastructure and e-mobility equity, and outlines a roadmap for a five-step plan to prepare for the EV infrastructure needs of 280,000 EVs in Phoenix by 2030. One goal of the Plan to accelerate public adoption of electric vehicles through workplace, business, and multifamily charging infrastructure recommends a standard stipulation for rezoning cases to provide EV charging infrastructure. The Development Narrative contains requirements for electrical vehicle parking at the golf course clubhouse. 10. Comprehensive Bicycle Master Plan The City of Phoenix adopted the Comprehensive Bicycle Master Plan in 2014 to guide the development of its bikeway system and supportive infrastructure. The Comprehensive Bicycle Master Plan supports options for both short- and long- term bicycle parking as a means of promoting bicyclist traffic to a variety of Destinations. The Development Narrative includes bicycle parking provisions in all development units. 11. Tree and Shade Master Plan The Tree and Shade Master Plan has a goal of treating the urban forest as infrastructure to ensure that trees are an integral part of the city’s planning and development process. In addition, a vision in the master plan is to raise awareness by leading by example. The Development Narrative requires a range of shade on all adjacent public sidewalks, in addition to larger tree sizes within the landscape areas between the back of curb and sidewalk. These standards exceed the minimum Zoning Ordinance requirements. 12. Monarch Butterfly In April 2021, Mayor Kate Gallego signed the National Wildlife Federation's Mayor's Monarch Pledge. This pledge commits the city to take action to support the monarch butterfly population. In the United States, loss of milkweed habitat is a major factor in the decline of the monarchs. Arizona has at least 29 species of milkweed native to the state. Adult monarchs feed on the nectar of many flowers, but they breed only where milkweeds are found. To support the monarch butterfly Staff Report: Z-25-24-8 August 5, 2024 Page 14 of 20 population, the PUD narrative addresses the planting of milkweed shrubs, or other native nectar plant species, on the subject site. 13. Conservation Measures for New Development In June 2023, the Phoenix City Council adopted the Conservation Measures for New Development policy as part of a resolution addressing the future water consumption of new development (Resolution 22129). This resolution addresses the future water consumption of new development to support one of the City’s Five Core Values in the General Plan which calls for Phoenix to - Build the Sustainable Desert City. The Conservation Measures for New Development policy includes direction to develop standards for consideration as stipulations for all rezoning cases that will address best practices related to water usage in nine specific categories. The PUD Narrative has numerous conservation measures for the proposed residential and golf course uses. The proposed single-family residential development and golf course will utilize the Phoenix Active Management Area Low-Water-Use/Drought-Tolerant Plant List for vegetation, smart irrigation controllers, and pressure regulating sprinkler heads to reduce water waste. 14. Phoenix Climate Action Plan In October 2021, the Phoenix City Council approved the Climate Action Plan. The Climate Action Plan will serve as a long-term plan to achieve greenhouse gas emissions reductions and resiliency goals from local operations and community activities as well as prepare for the impacts of climate change. This plan contains policy and initiatives regarding stationary energy, transportation, waste management, air quality, local food systems, heat, and water. Goal W2 (Water), Action W2.4, pertains to the implementation of the Greater Phoenix Green Infrastructure (GI) and Low Impact Development Details for Alternative Stormwater Management to benefit the environment, promote water conservation, reduce urban heat, improve the public health, and create additional green spaces. This goal is addressed the Sustainability portion of the PUD Narrative. A minimum of two green infrastructure techniques for stormwater managements shall be implemented in the future golf course and single-family residential development. 15. Zero Waste PHX The City of Phoenix is committed to its waste diversion efforts and has set a goal to become a zero-waste city, as part of the City’s overall 2050 Environmental Sustainability Goals. One of the ways Phoenix can achieve this is to improve and expand its recycling and other waste diversion programs. Section 716 of the Phoenix Zoning Ordinance establishes standards to encourage the provision of recycling containers for multifamily, commercial, and mixed-use developments meeting certain criteria. The PUD narrative does not address trash and recycling receptacles on site. However, the City provides recycling service to single-family residential developments. COMMUNITY INPUT SUMMARY 16. As of the writing of this report, staff has receive three letters of opposition to this Staff Report: Z-25-24-8 August 5, 2024 Page 15 of 20 rezoning application.

Please, understand that I am not opposed to someone purchasing the old course and revitalizing the area as we want the community to develop and grow. My issue is that when reviewing the plan, our home and 21 others are the only ones effected with homes directly behind us and the loss of our golf course view (see pdf, yellow effected – blue still have a view of the course). We lose our golf course view and depending on the size of the new homes, we could lose our mountain view. This is unacceptable to me, as I mentioned previously I am not opposed to growth and making things better but I do not want my views to change. When we bought our home we were told no homes would be built and now within a year, we are effected. I would vote 100% in favor if I still had my golf course view but to be one of only 22 homes effected I am not for it. There should be other plans on how to keep everyone with their views, 20 Holes – adjust and make 27 holes. Make a Par 3 course or a practice range. There has to be a way to not effect a small group. I am not able to attend this evening but if I was, I would be opposed to this plan – I am asking to look at all options and see how everyone that has a golf course view – can remain on the course. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to call me on my cell, 630.327.7574.

We are not happy with how Laveen 140 has been conduction business concerning our neighborhood. The last meeting they did not send out notices to the neighboring community, Cottonfields, that backs up to the golf course and will be affected by a new road and housing units. Notices should be sent to all residents in the surrounding communities. Several of my neighbors have also had complaints about how they are conducting the new zoning. I do not want a new road behind my house. I am now buffered from the outside by homes in the adjacent Cottonfields Community. In addition, Laveen 140 has not kept up the current golf course and clubhouse. There is weeds and trash throughout the golf course. Our HOA board has not taken a vote to satisfy the homeowners of the golf course. Laveen 140 taken signatures of residents that include renters. I hope that the Laveen planning and council will require that Laveen 140 has an actual vote from the community before proceeding with any zoning changes to satisfy our legally binding REMA agreement.
