PLANNING HEARING OFFICER RECOMMENDATION 
On November 15, 2023, the Planning Hearing Officer recommended a continuance to 
the December 20, 2023 PHO Hearing. The Planning Hearing Officer heard the request 
on December 20, 2023 and recommended approval with a modification and additional 
stipulations. 
VILLAGE PLANNING COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION 
The South Mountain Village Planning Committee (VPC) reviewed the request on August 
8, 2023. The VPC recommended a continuance with direction by a vote of 10-0. The 
VPC reviewed the continued request on November 14, 2023 and recommended 
approval with modifications and additional stipulations by a vote of 14-0. 
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS 
The subject site consists of 3.64 gross acres located at the southwest corner of 32nd 
Street and Baseline Road and is zoned MUA BAOD (Mixed Use Agricultural District, 
Baseline Area Overlay District). A commercial development, consisting of a drive-
through coffee shop, is proposed on the site. 
The applicant is requesting the following modifications: 
•
Modification of Stipulation 1.a. regarding general conformance with the site plan
dated August 27, 2001. The modification would require the open space between
buildings for public use to count towards the open space requirements. The
applicant’s narrative (Exhibit B) notes that a pedestrian link to the west of the
development is not possible as there is no easement to gain access to residential
street right-of-way. The adjacent site to the west is developed with a single-family
residential subdivision and the single-family lots back up to the subject site.
•
Deletion of Stipulation 1.b. regarding landscape strips. The applicant’s narrative
(Exhibit B) notes there is no residential development proposed.
•
Deletion of Stipulation 1.d regarding creation of a Homeowners Association. The
narrative (Exhibit B) notes there is no residential development proposed.
•
Deletion of Stipulation 1.e regarding Planning Hearing Officer review of gated
entry design. The narrative (Exhibit B) notes there is no residential development
proposed.
•
Deletion of Stipulation 1.g regarding alternative paving materials for parking
stalls. The applicant’s narrative (Exhibit B) notes that alternate pavement material
parking spaces are not practical.

On December 21, 2023 the PHO recommendation was appealed by a community 
member, Trent Marchuk (Exhibit A). The appellant requested that: 
 
• Stipulations 6-13, recommended at the November 14th VPC meeting (Exhibit H), 
be reinstated. Precedence exists for making specific presumptions listed in 
Section 649 of the Zoning Ordinance as stipulated requirements. If stipulation 
language must be altered, it shall retain the intention of preserving the aesthetics 
and character of the MUA District.  
 
• Stipulation 14 be reinstated to require the owner to maintain all landscaping. 
 
• Stipulation 15 be reinstated to promote walkability and neighborhood cohesion. 
 
• Stipulation 17 be reinstated as it is considered a pedestrian safety measure in 
connection to Stipulation 15. 
 
PREVIOUS HISTORY 
 
On October 31, 2001, the Phoenix City Council approved Rezoning Case No. Z-73-01-
8, a request to rezone approximately 30.2 acres located on the southeast corner of 
32nd Street and Baseline Road (Exhibit E). The request was to rezone 30.2 acres from 
S-1 BAOD (Ranch or Farm Residence, Baseline Area Overlay District) to MUA BAOD 
(Mixed Use Agricultural District, Baseline Area Overlay District) (Exhibit F), subject to 
stipulations (Exhibit E). 
 
The proposed development was intended to provide a mix of single-family residential, 
retail, restaurant, office, and commercial space. Per the proposed conceptual site plan 
(Exhibit K), the minimum building setbacks for the site were 50 feet along Baseline 
Road, 20 feet (single-family residential) and 30 feet (commercial) along the east side of 
the development, and 20 feet (single-family residential) along the south side of the 
development. The landscape setback for the site was 30 feet along 32nd Street. The 
proposed maximum number of dwelling units was 41. The proposed maximum building 
height was 30 feet. Proposed design guidelines included requirements for agricultural 
design, common open space, pedestrian focused walkways, bike paths, and horse 
trails. The project design was intended to be consistent with the goals in the Baseline 
Area Master Plan.

PLANNING HEARING OFFICER FINDINGS 
 
1) The request for modification of Stipulation 1.A regarding general conformance to 
a conceptual site plan is recommended to be approved.  The request for review 
and approval of conceptual site plan per Stipulation 1 has been complied with 
and text was eliminated that pertained to the previously approved plan.  The 
recommendation is therefore to approve the plan and modify the existing 
Stipulation 1 to replace the existing language with a standard language general 
conformance stipulation to the site plan.    
 
Furthermore, pedestrian connection and site walkability will be ensured through 
the Site Plan approval process.  The proposed stipulated plan shows the 
provision of open space, with a sidewalk between the buildings.

Page 5 of 11 
2) The request to delete the language in Stipulation 1.B is approved. This stipulation
is not pertinent to the new design as there is no residential development
proposed.
3) The request to delete Stipulation 1.d regarding creation of a Homeowners
Association is approved. There is not residential development.
4) The request Request to delete Stipulation 1.e regarding Planning Hearing Officer
review of gated entry design is approved.  This is not a residential development
and there will be no gated entry.
5) The request to delete Stipulation 1.g regarding alternative paving materials for
parking stall is approved as it was written.  The original stipulation will be
replaced with the stipulation regarding alternative materials that was
recommended by the South Mountain Village Planning Committee.
Village Recommended Stipulations 
1) The South Mountain VPC recommended 17 stipulations at the November 14th
hearing. Seven of the stipulations were recommended to be added at this
hearing. The ones that were omitted were either part of the existing Zoning
Ordinance requirements for the MUA zoning district or were not candidates for
stipulation based on the passive nature of the language therein. In addition, the
vague nature of the design-based stipulations made them contradictory to the
existing language in the Zoning Ordinance. The findings for the recommended
stipulations are below.
2) The request for a minimum of 10 percent of the required parking spaces shall be
level 2 or greater EV ready is approved.  This request is clear and does not
contradict other stipulations or the Zoning Ordinance.
3) The request for a minimum five bicycle spaces is approved.  The following details
are clear and do not contradict other stipulations or the Zoning Ordinance.
4) The request for the surface of parking stalls shall be composed of an alternative
to asphalt or concrete has been implemented by modifying the existing
Stipulation 1.g.
5) The request that the landscaping shall be limited to the Sonoran Plant List with
the addition of Cercidium Hybrid (Desert Museum Palo Verde), Quercus
Virginiana (Live Oak), and Pistacia X 'Red-Push (Red Push Pistache) has been
approved.

6) The request for pedestrian access to be provided to the development to the
south is approved.  The developer has agreed to work with the residential
developer to the south to provide access.
Additional Stipulations 
7) The site is identified as archaeologically sensitive and three additional
stipulations are recommended to be included to address requirements for
archaeological survey and testing.
8) The applicant did not submit a Proposition 207 waiver of claims prior to the
Planning Hearing Officer hearing. Submittal of this form is an application
requirement.  An additional stipulation is recommended to require the applicant to

STAFF PRESENTATION 
 
Samuel Rogers, staff, explained the process of a Planning Hearing Officer (PHO) case 
and provided a presentation regarding the subject site location, surrounding zoning and 
land uses, the original rezoning case, the request, and next steps.   
 
APPLICANT PRESENTATION 
 
John Duensing, representing the applicant Archicon Architecture & Interiors, L.C., 
presented the site context and history, the original rezoning case, the request, the 
conceptual site plan, and the conceptual renderings.   
 
QUESTIONS FROM THE COMMITTEE

Committee Member Marcia Busching asked if the applicant had a lease agreement 
with Starbucks. Mr. Duensing explained that the applicant had a letter of intent from 
Starbucks. Committee Member Busching stated that there are two other Starbucks 
locations nearby. Chair Tamala Daniels stated that there is a Dunkin Donuts and a 
Human Bean coffee shop in the area. 
 
Committee Member Fred Daniels asked how drainage retention will be addressed. 
Mr. Duensing stated that a drainage study is required and stated that most of the water 
would likely be collected and remain on site.  
 
Committee Member Trent Marchuk asked about existing and proposed fencing and 
the fencing materials. Mr. Duensing confirmed that there is existing fencing to the west, 
stated that fencing is proposed around the parking areas and the menu boards, and 
stated that fencing will be concrete block.  
 
Committee Member George Brooks asked what would happen if water cannot be 
retained on site, stated concerns about traffic coming and going from the site, and 
asked about the garden to the south that was proposed in the original rezoning case. 
Mr. Duensing stated that the drainage study will be reviewed by the City of Phoenix 
and the developer would work with City of Phoenix if water cannot be retained on site, 
explained that a traffic study would be completed and the drive through provides many 
stacking spaces, and explained that the property to the south is not owned by the 
developer but the developer is willing to work with the property owner to the south.  
 
Committee Member Gene Holmerud stated that he could see east bound traffic along 
Baseline Road using the Baseline entrance and driving around Pad A to reach Pad B. 
Mr. Duensing agreed with Committee Member Holmerud and stated that the 
development had mimicked the egress and ingress locations of the site plan associated 
with the original rezoning.  
 
Committee Member Greg Brownell stated concerns about eastbound traffic along 
Baseline caused by individuals turning into the subject site and stated he would like 
feedback from traffic police regarding the traffic study. Mr. Duensing stated that he is 
not sure if police will review the traffic study, but they do review the site plan and stated 
that there are not often deceleration lanes along Baseline Road.  
 
Committee Member Fatima Muhammad Roque stated concerns about the site’s 
proximity to the Desert Marigold School and the Farm at South Mountain and the 
danger of increased traffic for children. Mr. Duensing stated he was not sure if the 
school and the Farm were captured in the traffic study, but he would pass the concerns 
on to the development team.  
 
Committee Member Marchuk stated the importance of the Mixed-Use Agricultural 
(MUA) zone and requested that building materials, roof structures, and window aspects 
that fit into the MUA district be used in the building designs. Mr. Duensing explained

that the development team had not gone through the design process yet and explained 
that on previous projects with Starbucks he had some freedom with the building design.  
 
Committee Member Brooks asked what was being decided on and asked if the Village 
Planning Committee would hear this project again. Chair Daniels explained that 
stipulations from the original rezoning case were requested to be removed. Mr. Rogers 
explained that the case could be heard again if it is continued and explained what could 
be changed as a part of the PHO process.  
 
Committee Member Brooks stated that the entire project could change. Mr. Duensing 
stated that the next step would be to pursue building permits and asked if staff if the 
case would come back for the drive through Use Permit. Mr. Rogers explained that Use 
Permits are not heard by the Village Planning Committee.  
 
Chair Daniels stated that the proposal does not show how the site will comply with 
architectural details required by the MUA district and explained the site’s development 
plan history that included a mixed-use development and a garden that would supply sit-
down restaurants. Chair Daniels stated that this proposal does not give a full picture of 
the proposal without the traffic study, open space, building elevations that match the 
MUA district, provisions for walkability, and maintenance of landscaping. Chair Daniels

MOTION 
Committee Member Brooks made a motion to recommend a continuance of PHO-1-
23--Z-73-01-6(8). Committee Member Holmerud seconded the motion.  
 
Committee Member Busching stated that it is not wise to continue the case because 
the PHO may make a decision without the Village planning Committee’s input and 
stated that the committee should approve the case with additional stipulations. Chair 
Daniels stated that the proposal does not show enough information on the architectural 
plans, landscape plans, or a traffic study. Committee Member Brooks stated that they 
are talking about traffic accidents and millions of dollars and stated that there are no 
guarantees about what the site will look like.

request. Mr. Rogers confirmed that there is a $830 fee when an applicant requests a 
continuance at the PHO hearing. Chair Daniels asked if the continuance fee can be 
waived, explained the committee’s responsibility to represent the community and ensure 
that the committee is not approving projects based on promises from the development 
team that may or may not come true, stated that the committee needs plans to stipulate 
conformance too, and stated that the committee would request the continuance fee to 
be waived. Mr. Duensing stated that he has no objection to coming back and 
presenting to the committee again.  
 
Committee Member Brooks withdrew the motion.

STAFF BACKGROUND PRESENTATION 
 
Samuel Rogers, staff, provided a presentation highlighting the request, subject site, 
surrounding area, the original 2001 rezoning case and stipulations, the request, and 
design requirements in the Mixed Use Agricultural (MUA) zoning district.  
 
Committee Member Greg Brownell asked what landscaping is requested to be 
eliminated. Mr. Rogers explained that the requirement for landscaped tree line strips 
along local streets in the residential area is proposed to be eliminated because there is 
no residential component as a part of the proposed development. Committee Member 
Marcia Busching asked if the stipulation could be modified to eliminate the reference to 
the residential area and still require landscaped tree line strips along local streets. Mr. 
Rogers confirmed that the stipulation could be modified.

Committee Member Emma Viera asked how the proposal aligns with the General 
Plan’s five Core Values, with specific regard to the “Build the Sustainable Desert City 
core value. Mr. Rogers explained that village planning staff does not analyze PHO 
requests and stated that the applicant should be able to speak to Committee Member 
Viera’s inquiry. 
 
Chair Tamala Daniels asked if this was a rezoning because there was already an 
approved plan and explained that the committee had asked to applicant to come back to 
present to the committee to provide more information and details base on the previously 
approved plan. Mr. Rogers explained any analysis would be done by the Zoning Team, 
who run PHO cases, and stated that the proposed uses are already allowed by right in 
the MUA zoning district and the request is to modify or remove stipulations of the 
original rezoning case.  
 
Committee Member Trent Marchuk asked about the slides in the staff presentation on 
the MUA zoning district design requirements and asked if it is staff’s commentary that 
the elevations meet those requirements. Mr. Rogers explained that he provided those 
design requirements in the slide deck at the request of Chair Daniels and stated that 
site review staff will evaluate the proposal for compliance with the design requirements. 
Committee Member Marchuk asked about stipulating the presumptions that the 
committee wants to ensure are applied to the project. Mr. Rogers explained that the 
committee can elevate presumptions to requirements by stipulating them.  
 
Committee Member George Brooks stated he is looking forward to the applicant 
presentation to see how the proposal aligns with the General Plan’s Core Values 
 
APPLICANT PRESENTATION 
 
Mitchell Mastrin, with Archicon Architecture & Interiors, L.C., provided a presentation 
on the subject site context, history of subject site, the site plan, the request, the 
conceptual landscape plan, the conceptual elevations, and the conceptual renderings.  
 
QUESTIONS FROM THE COMMITTEE 
 
Committee Member Brownell stated that not all the stipulations being modified or 
removed are regarding residential development and explained that the stipulation 
requiring alternative paving materials in the parking area is proposed to be removed. 
Mr. Mastrin explained that the development is proposing an asphalt parking area. 
Committee Member Brownell explained that an asphalt parking lot is not desired, stated 
he would like to see a permeable parking surface, and stated that the plans do not show 
a percentage of shade proposed. Mr. Mastrin explained he was not requested to have 
the percentage of shade and pointed out the location of the proposed landscaping. 
Committee Member Brownell stated that temperatures in South Phoenix have gone up 
due to the loss of vegetation and the urban heat island effect and explained he would 
like the development to do what it can to make the proposed development cooler 
temperature wise. Mr. Mastrin pointed out the proposed planting materials as shown on

the landscape plan. Committee Member Viera stated that the City of Phoenix has a list 
of trees that are heat and drought resistant. Committee Member Kay Shepard stated 
that the MUA zoning district has its own list of allowed plant materials. Committee 
Member Brownell stated that some of the allowed drought resistant trees do not provide 
much shade. Chair Daniels asked what should be stipulated to limit the allowed plant 
materials. Committee Member Marchuk stated that the MUA district has a 
presumption that states planting materials should be limited to the Sonoran Plant List.  
 
Chair Daniels asked the applicant to speak on the items the committee had asked the 
applicant to address at the last meeting. Mr. Mastrin presented 3D renderings and 
explained how the design had been altered to comply with MUA design requirements. 
Chair Daniels asked if outdoor seating is proposed and asked about the design out of 
the office building. Mr. Mastrin pointed out the location of 800 square feet of outdoor 
seating and explained that the office building had not yet been designed, stated the 
office building would match the style of the proposed coffee shop illustrated in the 3D 
renderings, and explained that he would like to see the office building become an urgent 
care. Mr. Mastrin explained that the Rick Engineering drainage letter shows that there 
will not be issues with water retention and detention.  
 
Committee Member Busching explained that there is no direct route from the 
crosswalks at the corner of Baseline Road and 32nd Street to the proposed structures 
and stated there should be a pedestrian path at the northeast corner of the site to cross 
the landscape area. Mr. Mastrin stated they would likely want to bring a walkway 
further south than the northeast corner to avoid having a pedestrian pathway cross a 
drive isle. Committee Member Busching stated that the pedestrian path can include a 
pavement treatment that visually contrasts parking and drive aisle surfaces.  
 
Committee Member Marchuk asked if there is a fence or wall proposed around the 
drive-through area and stated that a portion of the wall should not be built where the 
northeaster pedestrian access will be placed. Mr. Mastrin stated that a low wall is 
proposed around the drive-though and agreed that the wall should not block the 
pedestrian pathway.  
 
Chair Daniels stated that the community has been dealing with flooding, stated that the 
committee has been asking development teams to look at the flood zone map, asked if 
the site’s drainage will flood adjacent developments, and asked if the development team 
had looked at the flood map. Mr. Mastrin explained that flood zone map is shown as a 
part of the Rick Engineering drainage letter. Chair Daniels asked about other items that 
the development team had been asked to address in the previous VPC meeting. Mr. 
Mastrin explained that the development team had also asked about a traffic study and 
read a summary of the study’s findings that concluded the additional traffic would have 
minimal traffic related impacts on the existing roadway network and surrounding area.  
 
Chair Daniels stated that the MUA does a lot regarding things like horse trails and 
stated it seems like the development is cutting out some landscaping. Mr. Rogers 
pointed out that the site plan does show a multi-use trail alignment along both Baseline

Road and 32nd Street. Chair Daniels asked for clarification on the request to eliminate 
the requirement for tree lined streets on all local streets. Mr. Rogers explained that there 
is a hierarchy of streets ranging from the most intense streets like major arterials down 
to local streets, stated that Baseline Road is likely a major arterial, 32nd is likely a 
collector, and local streets would be the streets within a subdivision or low capacity 
road, and explained that the development is proposing accessways, but not local 
streets.  
 
Committee Member Viera asked if the two building are connected by a landscape 
area. Mr. Mastrin stated that there is a landscape area between the buildings.  
 
Chair Daniels stated that landscaping dying and not being replenished on commercial 
projects has been a problem in the past and stated that there should be a requirement 
for an HOA to maintain the landscaping. Committee Member Viera stated that 
maintenance of landscaping is required by the City of Phoenix. Mr. Rogers stated that it 
is his understanding is that landscape plans used to be not be required but they are 
required now and explained that if a site is not complying with their landscape plan then 
the Neighborhood Services Department can go out and issue a violation.  
 
Committee Member Marchuk summarized the discussion and listed the possible 
stipulations that include pedestrian access, driveway materials, landscaping, building 
materials, fencing, roofs, and building orientation.  
 
Committee Member Gene Holmerud asked about bicycle parking and electric vehicle 
(EV) charging. Mr. Mastrin stated that bike parking is proposed, stated that EV 
charging has not been proposed, and asked if there is a percentage of EV parking the 
committee would like to stipulate. Committee Member Holmerud stated that he would 
like to see two percent level two EV chargers.  
 
Committee Member Darlene Jackson stated concerns about the driveway getting 
backed up onto 32nd Street. Mr. Mastrin explained that he had fought with Starbucks to 
provide two driveway lanes to prevent traffic from getting backed up.  
 
Chair Daniels asked how many EV spaces should be stipulated. Mr. Rogers explained 
that the three types of EV chargers that can be provided are “ready”, “capable”, and 
“installed” and explained that a level two charger is in reference to the how quickly an 
EV charger can a full charge. Committee Member Holmerud stated that there should 
be 10 percent EV ready installed. Committee Member Shepard asked if the EV 
spaces would count towards the required parking and asked if nonelectric vehicles can 
park in EV spaces. Mr. Rogers stated that the EV spaces would count towards the 
required parking and explained that the EV spaces can be used by anyone.

Application PHO-1-23—Z-73-01-6(8) 
Page 2 
corner. He gave an overview of the items that were discussed at the November 
15 PHO hearing and mentioned that they were awaiting the new 
recommendations from the Planning Hearing Officer. 
Byron Easton, Planning Hearing Officer, stated he remembers everything that 
was mentioned at the last PHO hearing and was prepared to talk about the 
stipulations the VPC recommended. 
Marcia Busching, village planning committee member, asked Mr. Easton if he 
was opposed to any of the stipulations the VPC recommended. She stated one 
of the stipulations was duplicated and the duplicate language was not needed. 
Mr. Easton stated he did not have any questions regarding the VPC’s 
recommended stipulations. He stated he spoke to the village planner regarding 
what occurred at the last PHO hearing and discussed what is appropriate for 
stipulating from the list of recommendations. He stated presumptions and design 
guidelines are not stipulated. He stated site planners are the ones who review 
those based on Mixed-Use Agricultural District (MUA) and Baseline Area Overlay 
District (BAOD) standards. He reiterated anything that the Zoning Ordinance 
already covers will not be stipulated in a PHO hearing. He stated he agreed with 
some of the VPC recommended stipulations and gave an overview of them. He 
stated a pedestrian connection is needed between the proposed residential 
development to the south (Item No. 2) and the proposed commercial 
development for this case and recommends adding a stipulation regarding the 
connection. He stated a Parks and Recreation stipulation, archaeological 
stipulations, and a Prop 207 stipulation would be added to this case. 
Teresa Garcia, Planning Hearing Officer assistant, stated that the applicant 
submitted a Prop 207 waiver, and a stipulation was not needed. 
Mr. Easton removed the Prop 207 stipulation. 
Mr. Mastrin asked for clarification on Stipulation 6 regarding the multi-use trail 
(MUT). 
Mr. Easton clarified it was a 30-foot wide multi-use easement (MUTE) and a 10-
foot wide trail MUT. 
Ms. Busching stated she was concerned about human nature regarding people 
cutting through the property at the northeast corner. She stated she understands 
the applicant is proposing an accessway to the south but thinks they should be 
required to have the accessway at the northeast corner. 
Mr. Easton stated there is a drainage area that people will have to pass through 
and would be difficult to have the connection come from the northeast corner. He

Planning Hearing Officer Summary of December 20, 2023 
Application PHO-1-23—Z-73-01-6(8) 
Page 3 
stated the city can work with the applicant to bring the connection more north of 
the site. 
Ms. Busching stated that human nature would still be a concern if placed at the 
north side of the site due to people cutting through from the west side. 
Mr. Easton stated a designated pathway from the northeast corner is feasible. He 
asked Mr. Mastrin if it was possible to move the access point further north. 
Mr. Mastrin stated that moving it would be asking people to walk right through the 
queuing lanes of the drive-through, which they feel it is not safe. He stated the 
northern connection shown on the site plan is for employees only. He stated the 
southern accessway is for people coming from the sidewalk and the bus area on 
32nd Street. 
Mr. Easton asked what the distance from the access point and the intersection. 
Mr. Mastrin stated approximately 210 feet. He stated he does not think it is 
unreasonable to have people walk on the sidewalk, however based on human 
nature, people may jump over the screen wall. 
Mr. Easton asked if Mr. Mastrin was averse to having the connection at the 
northeast corner. 
Mr. Mastrin stated he did not know how it would be done and is averse to having 
the connection at the northeast corner. 
Mr. Easton stated based on his calculations, it is not worth the engineering and 
cost to save someone 60 steps and is going to recommend his original 
recommendation to omit that connection requirement. 
FINDINGS: 
1) The request for modification of Stipulation 1.A regarding general
conformance to a conceptual site plan is recommended to be approved.
The request for review and approval of conceptual site plan per Stipulation
1 has been complied with and text was eliminated that pertained to the
previously approved plan.  The recommendation is therefore to approve
the plan and modify the existing Stipulation 1 to replace the existing
language with a standard language general conformance stipulation to the
site plan.
Furthermore, pedestrian connection and site walkability will be ensured
through the Site Plan approval process.  The proposed stipulated plan
shows the provision of open space, with a sidewalk between the buildings.

2) The request to delete the language in Stipulation 1.B is approved. This
stipulation is not pertinent to the new design as there is no residential
development proposed.
3) The request to delete Stipulation 1.d regarding creation of a Homeowners
Association is approved. There is not residential development.
4) The request Request to delete Stipulation 1.e regarding Planning Hearing
Officer review of gated entry design is approved.  This is not a residential
development and there will be no gated entry.
5) The request to delete Stipulation 1.g regarding alternative paving
materials for parking stall is approved as it was written.  The original
stipulation will be replaced with the stipulation regarding alternative
materials that was recommended by the South Mountain Village Planning
Committee.
Village Recommended Stipulations 
1) The South Mountain VPC recommended 17 stipulations at the November
15th hearing.  7 of the stipulations were recommended to be added at this
hearing.  The ones that were omitted were either part of the existing
Zoning Ordinance requirements for the MUA zoning district or were not
candidates for stipulation based on the passive nature of the language
therein. In addition, the vague nature of the design-based stipulations
made them contradictory to the existing language in the Zoning
Ordinance. The findings for the recommended stipulations are below.
2) The request for a minimum of 10% of the required parking spaces shall be
level 2 or greater EV ready is approved.  This request is clear and does
not contradict other stipulations or the Zoning Ordinance.
3) The request for a minimum five bicycle spaces is approved.  The following
details are clear and do not contradict other stipulations or the Zoning
Ordinance.
4) The request for the surface of parking stalls shall be composed of an
alternative to asphalt or concrete has been implemented by modifying the
existing Stipulation 1.g.
5) The request that the landscaping shall be limited to the Sonoran Plant List
with the addition of Cercidium Hybrid (Desert Museum Palo Verde),
Quercus Virginiana (Live Oak), and Pistacia X 'Red-Push (Red Push
Pistache) has been approved.
