Background/Issues/Analysis 
 
SUBJECT SITE 
1. 
This request is to rezone 1.19 acres located approximately 40 feet south of the 
southwest corner of 39th Avenue and Cactus Road from R-O (Residential Office 
– Restricted Commercial) to C-1 (Neighborhood Retail) to allow commercial uses 
(office and restaurant).  
 
 
SURROUNDING LAND USES AND ZONING 
2. 
To the west is a medical office 
and a residence zoned R-O on 
the same parcel as the subject 
site. To the south are single-
family homes zoned R1-6 
(Single-Family Residence 
District). To the north, across 
Cactus Road, is a police station 
zoned R1-6 SP (Single-Family 
Residence District, Special 
Permit). To the east, across 39th

Avenue, is a park zoned R1-6. 
 
 
GENERAL PLAN LAND USE MAP 
3. 
The General Plan Land Use Map 
designation for the parcel 
containing the subject site and 
the surrounding parcels to the 
west and south is Residential 3.5 
to 5 dwelling units per acre. To 
the north, across Cactus Road, is 
designated as Public/Quasi-
Public. To the east, across 39th 
Avenue, is designated 
Parks/Open Space - Publicly 
Owned. The proposal for C-1 
zoning is not consistent with the 
General Plan Land Use Map

Phoenix 
 
designation; however, a General Plan Amendment is not required as the site is 
under 10 acres. 
 
 
4. 
 
 
 
North Mountain Character Plan 
The North Mountain Village Character Plan was approved and adopted into the 
Phoenix General Plan through General Plan Amendment GPA-1-19. The 
proposed zoning advances these concepts by locating commercial uses along 
an arterial street that is sensitive to the character of the surrounding 
neighborhoods.  
• Land Use Principle: Locate land uses with the greatest height and most 
intense uses within limits based on village character, land use needs, 
infrastructure and transportation system capacity. 
• Design Principle: Create new development or redevelopment that is 
sensitive to the scale and character of the surrounding neighborhoods 
and incorporates adequate development standards to prevent negative 
impact(s) on the residential properties. 
 
 
PROPOSAL 
5. 
Site Plan 
The applicant proposes to develop the subject site with a 2,000-square-foot 
coffee shop with a drive-through and a 3,000-square-foot office building. The 
conceptual site plan shows 30 parking spaces accessed from an expanded 
driveway on Cactus Road and a new driveway on 39th Avenue. The drive-
through would require a use permit due to the proximity to a single-family 
residential district and a variance for the landscape setback adjacent to 39th 
Avenue and to the south; therefore, staff does not recommend general 
conformance to the site plan.

6. 
Conceptual Building Elevations 
The conceptual building elevations, attached as an exhibit, depict a one-story, 
20-foot tall coffee shop and one-story, 16-foot tall office building. Staff does not 
recommend general conformance to the elevations. Design guidelines in the 
Zoning Ordinance will require that buildings contain multiple exterior accent 
materials that exhibit quality and durability.

STUDIES AND POLICIES 
7. 
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. The proposed development will provide shaded, detached sidewalks on 
Cactus Road and 39th Avenue, enhanced surface parking lot shading, and 
enhanced shade for pedestrian walkways. These are addressed in Stipulation 
Nos. 6, 8, 9, and 16. 
 
 
8. 
Complete Streets Guiding Principles 
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. In order to facilitate multimodal 
transportation, the proposal will include bicycle parking, detached sidewalks, and 
pedestrian walkways with features contrasting them from drive aisles, as 
required in Stipulation Nos. 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, and 9. 
 
 
9. 
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. Stipulation Nos. 1 through 3 require bicycle parking, a bicycle repair

Staff Report: Z-20-24-1 
February 10, 2025

station, and electric bicycle chargers. 
 
 
10. 
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. This is addressed in Stipulation Nos. 13 through 18. 
 
 
11. 
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. Stipulation No. 4 requires 5% of required 
parking spaces to be EV Ready. 
 
 
 
12. 
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 application materials indicate the proposed 
development will provide recycling receptacles. 
 
 
 
COMMUNITY CORRESONDENCE 
*13. As of the writing of this report, staff has received two letters in opposition and

INTERDEPARTMENTAL COMMENTS 
14. 
The Street Transportation Department commented that the development shall 
dedicate 50 feet of right-of-way along Cactus Road, provide detached sidewalks 
along both Cactus Road and 39th Avenue, underground all existing electric 
utilities within the public right-of-way, replace unused driveways with sidewalk, 
curb, and gutter, and construct all streets adjacent to the development. These 
are addressed in Stipulation Nos. 7 through 12. 
 
 
OTHER 
15. 
The site has not been identified as being archaeologically sensitive. However, in 
the event archaeological materials are encountered during construction, all 
ground disturbing activities must cease within 33-feet 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 No. 19. 
 
 
 
16. 
Staff has not received a completed form for the Waiver of Claims for Diminution 
in Value of Property under Proposition 207 (A.R.S. 12-1131 et seq.), as required 
by the rezoning application process. Therefore, a stipulation has been added to 
require the form be completed and submitted prior to final site plan approval. 
This is addressed in Stipulation No. 20. 
 
 
 
17. 
Development and use of the site are 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.

CASE # Z 20-24 Rezoning 39th ave/cactus
Date:
Monday, April 15, 2024 6:10:14 PM
Greetings Mr Grande, 
We are the home owners of the property 
3943 W Wethersfield Rd, our property backyard faces Cactus Rd. It was our intention to
attend this meeting today April 15th, unfortunately we cashed a cold an are not feeling well. 
We would like to start by saying that, hearing about a possible coffee shop opening across the
street from us sounds exiting! Being owners of a small business our self's, we support local
businesses!! 
Despite the fact this is something new and existing for our community we do have some big
concerns. 
We have seen a huge increase on traffic in the mornings and afternoon. There is s high-school
and a middle school just across from us. Parents trying to drop their kids at school has made a
horrible impact in our street. There are days we can't even get out of our own driveway
because people are using " Wethersfield rd" to skip traffic.
And have the audacity to get upset at us homeowners! 
Can you just imagine the chaos once a coffee shop opens up??!!! how is traffic going to be
directed??? There are kids walking to school in the mornings, crossing CACTUS Rd.. this
street in the last 5yrs has gotten so dangerous to cross. People run red lights causing constants
accidents and even going into our neighbors backyard. 
Can the city do something about possible cheating the lights to lights that have arrows to help
with traffic?? (Attaching ideas)
We also need and request some kind of sign that let's these people trying to skip traffic that
our street of not a school zone area!! 
What about limiting the speed zone?? Speed bumps on Cactus? SOMETHING to slow these
humans! 
We can't event walk to the park any longer with our feeling insecure crossing Cactus Rd/39th
Ave. 
Also, would like to petition to have the fence from 38th Ave to 39th Ave facing Cactus Rd to
be painted. This wall has not been painting in the last 15 yrs! A fresh coat of paint would be
wonderful specially if a new building is coming in. 
We appreciate the opportunity we have to speak about our request and needs for our
community. We as citizens and neighbors want the best for our children and community.
Please consider our petition an concerns on your final hearing. 
The Gomez Family

Hello Mr. Hales, 
I am writing to voice my concern over Case # Z-20-24, the S.W. corner of 39th Ave and Cactus Rd.  I understand that a 
request for rezoning has been made.  I am against any rezoning of this land.  I am very concerned about the impact this 
will have on our community due to the increased volume of traffic within the neighborhood.   This is already a busy 
corner due to the PPD precinct, Tumbleweed elementary and Moon Valley H.S.  This is especially true during the 
morning rush hour, and around 2:15 to 3:15.  There has been talk of a drive thru coffee shop as one of the tenants. That 
will make things even more crowded during those times.The lines to this type of establishment often back up onto the 
city streets. This will create an unsafe environment for motorists and pedestrians. This will also be a problem 
with so many of our students walking to and from school. Impatient drivers are unsafe drivers and I am afraid that 
this will be creating a very hazardous situation for our walking students.  
I am an original owner (1978) and our neighborhood has worked very hard to keep this a neighborhood not a 
commercial area and I would like to see it remain as such.  There are plenty of available opportunities for retail on the 
corners of 35th Ave and 43rd Ave. we don't need to have anything like this on 39th Ave. 
 
Thank you, 
Glenna Teel
