STAFF RECOMMENDATION 
 
Denial as filed, approval with modifications and additional stipulations, as recommended 
by the Planning Hearing Officer (PHO). 
 
PLANNING HEARING OFFICER RECOMMENDATION 
 
The Planning Hearing Officer heard the request on December 20, 2023, and 
recommended denial as filed, approval with modifications and additional stipulations. 
 
VILLAGE PLANNING COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION 
 
The South Mountain Village Planning Committee (VPC) reviewed the request on 
December 12, 2023. The VPC recommended approval with a modification and 
additional stipulations by a vote of 11-0. 
 
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS 
 
The subject site consists of 4.6 gross acres located approximately 275 feet south of the 
southwest corner of 32nd Street and Baseline Road and is zoned MUA BAOD (Mixed 
Use Agricultural District, Baseline Area Overlay District). A 10-lot single-family 
residential subdivision 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. Commercial development was proposed on the subject 
site on the originally stipulated site plan. The applicant’s narrative (Exhibit B) 
notes that the modification would continue to support the stipulated open space 
requirements and some open space elements are not applicable to this case.  
 
• Modification of Stipulation 1.b regarding a detached sidewalk. The modification 
would provide a detached sidewalk on one side of the private streets. The 
applicant’s narrative (Exhibit B) notes that the size and shape of the parcel limits 
the ability to provide detached sidewalks on both sides of the private street and 
all homes will have easy access to the proposed detached sidewalk. 
 
• Deletion of Stipulation 1.c regarding commercial building height. The narrative 
(Exhibit B) notes that the stipulation is not applicable to the parcel.

Staff Report PHO-2-23—Z-73-01-6(8) 
February 1, 2024 Planning Commission  
Page 3 of 11 
 
• Modification of Stipulation 1.d regarding a Homeowners Association. The 
narrative (Exhibit B) notes the Homeowners Association will maintain all common 
areas for the development. 
 
• Modification of Stipulation 1.f regarding interior perimeter walls. The applicant’s 
narrative (Exhibit B) notes the modification is tailored to the subject parcel and 
removes items that are not applicable. 
 
• Deletion of Stipulation 1.g regarding parking stalls. The applicant’s narrative 
(Exhibit B) notes the stipulation is not applicable top the parcel. 
 
• Deletion of Stipulation 2.1a regarding commercial building elevations. The 
applicant’s narrative (Exhibit B) notes the stipulation is not applicable top the 
parcel. 
 
• Modification of Stipulation 2.2a regarding one-story houses. The applicant’s 
narrative (Exhibit B) notes the stipulation addressed the now built neighborhood 
on the east side of 32nd Street. The proposed development will be subject to the 
revised stipulation and design guidelines of the MUA and BAOD Districts. The 
narrative states elevations will be presented to the VPC for review before 
preliminary site plan approval. 
 
• Modification of Stipulation 2.2b regarding floor plans. The applicant’s narrative 
(Exhibit B) notes the stipulation addressed the now built neighborhood on the 
east side of 32nd Street. The proposed development will be subject to the 
revised stipulation and design guidelines of the MUA and BAOD districts. The 
narrative states elevations will be presented to the VPC for review before 
preliminary site plan approval. 
 
• Deletion of Stipulation 3 regarding Streets and Rights-of-Way. The applicant’s 
narrative (Exhibit B) notes the stipulation is not applicable top the parcel. 
 
• Modification of Stipulation 4.a regarding a 25-foot easement on the west side of 
32nd Street. The applicant’s narrative (Exhibit B) notes the modification removes 
“Baseline Road” from the stipulation, as the subject parcel has no Baseline Road 
frontage. 
 
• Technical Correction for Stipulation 4.b to correct a department name. 
 
• Modification of Stipulation 5.a regarding VPC notification. The applicant’s 
narrative (Exhibit B) notes the variance process is quasi-judicial and not available 
for VPC review or comment.

Page 4 of 11 
 
• Deletion of Stipulation 5.b regarding construction commencement. The 
applicant’s narrative (Exhibit B) notes the development of the neighborhood on 
the east side of 32nd Street satisfied Stipulation 5.b. 
 
On December 21, 2023 the PHO recommendation was appealed by a community 
member, Trent Marchuk (Exhibit A). The appellant requested that Stipulation 8, 
recommended at the December 12, 2023 VPC meeting (Exhibit H), be reinstated. He 
argues that precedence exists for making specific presumptions listed in Section 649 of 
the Zoning Ordinance as stipulated requirements. He argues if stipulation language 
must be altered, it shall retain the intention of preserving the aesthetics and character of 
the MUA District. 
 
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 I), 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 41 lots were developed within 
the residential subdivision on the east side of 32nd Street. 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 with a modification.  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.  At the request of the South Mountain 
Village Planning Committee, the PHO has also added general conformance to the 
landscape plan.  The site plan and landscape plan are date stamped November 1, 
2023.  The reason for the addition of the landscape plan is in response to the 
Committee’s concerns that the high quality landscaping shown at the hearing 
would not be submitted during the site pan review. 
 
2) The request to Modify 1.B is approved with a modification. This stipulation is now 
written with updated language and location specificity. The small size and irregular 
shape of the subject parcel limits the ability to provide, and need for, detached 
sidewalks on both sides of the private street. All homes will have easy access to 
the detached sidewalk proposed for the east portion of the project to access the 
open space area and to exit the neighborhood to 32nd Street. 
 
3) The request to delete Stipulation 1.c regarding the height of commercial buildings 
is approved.  This Stipulation is no longer pertinent considering the new Site Plan 
and residential nature of the project.

Staff Report PHO-2-23—Z-73-01-6(8) 
February 1, 2024 Planning Commission  
Page 6 of 11 
 
4) The request to modify Stipulation 1.d is approved.  An HOA will be responsible to 
maintain all common areas on site, which are different than those installed in the 
neighborhood across 32nd Street and listed in stipulation 1.a. 
 
5) The request to modify Stipulation 1.f is approved with a modification. This 
modification specifies the location of solid walls as it pertains to this request.  The 
modification also removes the language referencing the previous zoning case. 
 
6) The request to modify Stipulation 1.g regarding parking stalls is actually a request 
to delete the stipulation in its entirety.  This request is approved due to the fact that 
the specific number of parking stalls is a leftover from the previous zoning case. 
 
7) The request to delete Stipulation 2.1a regarding commercial building elevations is 
approved as it is not applicable to this proposal. 
 
8) The request to modify Stipulation 2.2a regarding one-story houses is approved. 
The intent of the stipulation was to prepare for the neighborhood being built to the 
south by staggering the height of the houses, however, the neighborhood is 
already built.  
 
9) The homes will be subject to the proposed, revised stipulation and to design 
guidelines of the MUA and BAO districts. The owners will not develop elevations 
for the project until this application is concluded and the applicant agrees the 
Village Planning Committee needs the opportunity to review the elevations before 
preliminary site plan approval. 
 
10) The request to delete all of Stipulation 3 is denied as filed. Staff recommends the   
Stipulation 3.f. remain as written due to it being a standard stipulation for all 
rezones requiring all streets within and adjacent to a development, both public and 
private, be constructed to City of Phoenix and ADA standards. The stipulation still 
applies to this site as it requires all streets needing to be built with this development 
to be constructed to City of Phoenix standards.  Stipulation 3.f will become 3.a. 
 
11) The request to modify Stipulation 4.a regarding a 25-foot easement on the west 
side of 32nd Street is approved.  The location of the easement has been specified 
to the current project. 
 
12) The technical correction to remove the Library Department from the stipulation has 
been approved. 
 
13) The request to modify Stipulation 5.a regarding South Mountain Village Planning 
Committee notification is approved. 
 
14) The request to delete Stipulation 5.b regarding construction commencement is 
approved.

February 1, 2024 Planning Commission  
Page 7 of 11 
 
15) An additional Stipulation was added at the request of the South Mountain Village 
Planning Committee to provide pedestrian access to the development to the north. 
This is intended to connect the two developments. 
 
16) The site is identified as archaeologically sensitive and three additional stipulations 
are recommended to be included to address requirements for archaeological 
survey and testing. 
 
17) 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 
record this form and deliver it to the City to be included in the rezoning application 
file for record.

No members of the public registered to speak on this item.  
 
STAFF BACKGROUND PRESENTATION 
 
Samuel Rogers, staff, provided a presentation highlighting the request, subject site, 
surrounding area, the original 2001 rezoning case and stipulations, and the request. 
 
APPLICANT PRESENTATION 
 
Adam Baugh, with Withey, Morris, Baugh, PLC, 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 Marchuk asked about the proposed modification to Stipulation 
2.2b that requires that the design of the proposed homes come to the Village Planning 
Committee (VPC) before preliminary site plan approval and asked if the VPC would be 
able to add additional stipulations when the design of the proposed homes comes in 
front of the VPC. Mr. Rogers stated that he has never delt with this situation and does 
not know if the VPC would be able to add additional stipulations when the design of the 
proposed homes comes in front of the VPC. Mr. Baugh stated that the VPC would be 
able to provide comments, direction, and guidance to the applicant on how to adjust and 
change the design of the proposed elevations. Committee Member Marchuk asked for 
confirmation that the VPC would not be voting when they review the design of the 
proposed elevations. Mr. Baugh stated that the elevations would have to go to the PHO 
again and explained that the PHO would implement the VPC recommendation through 
adding additional stipulations.  
 
Chair Daniels asked why the final elevations were not presented and asked if providing 
elevations is a requirement of the PHO application. Mr. Baugh stated that the 
elevations had not been created yet, explained that the site already has the proper 
zoning for the proposed use, stated that the applicant is changing the site plan, and 
explained that there is still more work to do. Mr. Rogers stated that elevations are 
required for rezonings, but stated he would have to check the PHO process packet to 
see what the submittal requirements are. Chair Daniels explained that the VPC votes

based on what they see, not on what something could possibly look like. Mr. Baugh 
explained that the elevations provided were submitted as a part of the application and 
stated that the VPC can change stipulations, stipulate to the elevations, or move 
forward with the elevations. Chair Daniels reiterated that Mr. Baugh stated in his 
presentation that the elevations had been from another project. Mr. Baugh explained 
that the builder is comfortable with the proposed elevations and explained that the 
stipulation requiring review of the elevation designs was proposed so that the VPC 
could guide the elevations to be more acceptable to the VPC. Mr. Rogers stated that 
elevations are required as a part of the PHO application.  
 
Committee Member Brownell asked if the homes would be for sale or for rent. Mr. 
Baugh stated that the homes would be for sale.  
 
Committee Member Marchuk stated that Starbucks development to the north set an 
important precedent when the applicant continued the case and brought revised 
elevations that were specific to the MUA back to the VPC two months after their original 
VPC hearing. Committee Member Brownell echoed Committee Member Marchuk’s 
comments and stated his biggest concern was regarding whether the homes would be 
for sale.   
 
Committee Member Marcia Busching stated that the stipulation requires that the 
applicant return to the VPC with elevations, stated that the VPC should approve the 
request, and stated that the VPC should state that the elevations are not being 
approved as a part of the motion. Committee Member Arthur Greathouse III stated 
that the VPC will be able to add stipulations when the elevations come back to the VPC 
for review, but not stop the project. Committee Member Busching stated that the 
proposed stipulation requires the applicant to come back with elevations. Mr. Baugh 
stated that the proposed Stipulation No. 2.2b could be amended to require the 
elevations be reviewed and approved by the VPC and explained he would like to not 
continue the case because there are contractual timeline obligations with the escrow 
agreement.  
 
Committee Member Busching stated that it looks like the development is proposed to 
be gated, stated that she is not a fan of gated communities, and stated that she would 
like to add a stipulation requiring that the development not be gated. Chair Daniels 
stated she likes that it is a gated community, stated that she does not live in a gated 
community, and explained that part of having housing diversity means having some 
gated communities. Mr. Baugh stated that a 10-lot subdivision development like this is 
more of an enclave that is appropriate for gating. Chair Daniels stated that an enclave is 
a large, gated subdivision.  
 
Committee Member Marchuk stated that VPC had stipulated a pedestrian connection 
to this development on the to the proposed development to the north, stated that a 
pedestrian connection to the north could be stipulated on this project, and asked if the 
open space on the south portion of the property could be open to the public. Mr. Baugh 
stated that the open space area is intended to be for retention. Chair Daniels stated 
that the homeowners who live in the community pay for the gate and any liability that

comes with it. Committee Member Marchuk asked if the pedestrian connection would be 
controlled access. Chair Daniels stated that normally residents would have a key to 
access the pedestrian gate.  
 
Mr. Baugh stated that the development team is not opposed to a pedestrian gate, but 
there may be some ADA compliance issues with the slope and stated that the 
pedestrian connection stipulation should be subject to ADA to compliance. Committee 
Member Busching stated that the subject site is very flat. Tom Webber, with the 
development team, stated that the subject site appears flat, but explained that there is 
two to three feet of elevation difference between the two properties, stated that there 
may not be enough space to provide adequate sloping, and stated he does not think the 
development team can ask Starbuck to put the ADA ramp on their property. Committee 
Member Kay Shepard asked if the gate would have to be ADA compliant and stated at 
the nearby Safeway there is a pedestrian access to another property that is not ADA 
compliant. Mr. Webber stated he is not familiar with the Safeway property, stated he 
wonders when the Safeway development was built, and stated that he has always had 
to provide ADA compliant paths. Committee Member Shepard stated that the Safeway 
pedestrian connection had been built in the last three years.  
 
Committee Member Marchuk asked if the developer would be required to conform to 
the landscape plan and asked if the developer should be stipulated to conformance with 
the landscape plan. Mr. Rogers stated that the VPC can stipulate general conformance 
to the landscape plan. Committee Member Brownell asked if 25 percent shade 
coverage could be stipulated. Mr. Baugh stated that the MUA district and the Baseline 
Area Overlay District may require more than 25 percent shade coverage.  
 
Chair Daniels stated that the VPC still needs to figure out what to do about the design 
of the proposed elevations, stated that in the previous PHO case the VPC had required 
that the applicant come back to the VPC with updated elevations, reiterated that 
elevations are required as a part of the PHO packet, stated it is the VPC’s responsibility 
to the community approve what they see, and stated that in the past developers had 
made promises to the VPC that were not help up. Mr. Baugh stated that the proposed 
stipulation could be modified to require the approval of the elevations by the VPC. 
 
Committee Member Marchuk asked if staff could confirm if Stipulation 2.2b was 
modified to require approval of the elevations, the VPC would have the opportunity to 
vote and add stipulations. Mr. Rogers stated that he has never dealt with this situation 
and could not speak definitively and stated that the PHO has some latitude on how he 
deals with PHO cases. Committee Member Brownell stated that the VPC can approve, 
but not accept the elevations, stated that the City will not have elevations so the 
development team will have to come back and seek VPC approval of the elevations. 
Chair Daniels asked for confirmation that MUA district has design requirements. 
Committee Member Marchuk stated that some of the MUA district design requirements 
are presumptions or considerations and stated that some of the presumptions and 
considerations should be stipulated.

Committee Member Busching stated that if she were to make a motion she would 
motion to recommend approval of PHO-2-23--Z-73-01-6(8) as requested by the 
applicant with a modification to Stipulation 2.2b to require VPC approval of the design of 
the homes prior to preliminary site plan approval and with additional stipulations to 
require a pedestrian access point to the development to the north, subject to ADA 
standards, and to require general conformance to the landscape plan or City Code, 
whichever is greater. Committee Member Marchuk stated that the PHO has some 
level of latitude to make decisions and asked what uncertainty that latitude would add to 
the situation. Committee Member Busching stated that her understanding is that the 
PHO has latitude to adopt, modify, or deny VPC recommendations and stated that it 
does not make much of a difference whether the applicant continues the case and 
comes back to the VPC with elevations or if the applicant goes to the PHO now and 
then comes back to the VPC for approval of the elevations because the PHO will have 
the right to agree or disagree with the VPC recommendation at either time. Committee 
Member Marchuk asked if it would be easier for the PHO to disagree with sending the 
elevations back to the VPC for approval versus continuing the case and requiring the 
applicant to come back to the VPC. Committee Member Busching stated that if the VPC 
continues the case, there is no guarantee that the applicant will request a continuance 
at the PHO hearing. Chair Daniels asked if the applicant would commit to requesting a 
continuance at the PHO hearing. Mr. Baugh stated that that the development team 
would rather have to VPC recommend denial than have the case continued. Chair 
Daniels asked when the application was submitted. Mr. Rogers stated that the 
application date should be in the packet and stated that to ensure the case is continued 
at the PHO hearing the applicant would have to request a continuance. Committee 
Member Shepard stated she would prefer to go forward with Committee Member 
Busching’s potential motion.  
 
Committee Member Darlene Jackson asked if it would be a bad thing if the developer 
goes forward with the elevations presented. Chair Daniels stated that it would not 
necessarily be a bad thing if the development team goes forward with the elevations 
shown, explained that applicant had stated that elevations were from another project 
and not designed specifically for this site, and stated that the VPC cannot analyze the 
proposal properly without the actual elevations. Committee Member Brownell stated 
that one of the elements that is missing from the discussion is that this is only a 10-lot 
subdivision and stated it would not be the worst thing in the world if the applicant moves 
forward with the elevations presented. Chair Daniels stated that is does not matter how 
large or small the subdivision is, stated that she asked when the application was 
submitted because the applicant should have been told that they need elevations for the 
proposed project, stated that it feels like emotional blackmail when the applicant says 
they have deadlines but they did not follow the requirement to submit elevations for the 
proposed project, and stated she is in support of requiring the elevations to come back 
to the VPC for approval. Mr. Baugh stated that the subject site is within the MUA 
district, stated that the MUA district has design standards, stated that the modified 
Stipulation No. 2.2b requires that the design of the homes reflect a rural design, 
explained that the stipulation requiring VPC approval of the elevations is a great tool for 
the VPC, stated that his team does not control the buyer’s timeline, and stated the

development team can commit to coming back to the VPC to allow them to influence the 
final design of the elevations.  
 
Committee Member Marchuk stated that he would like to work collaboratively with the 
development team on getting the elevations to comply with MUA design requirements 
when they come back, stated that the VPC should add a stipulation to elevate all 
presumptions in 649.J to requirements, and stated if there are any presumptions the 
development team wants to strike they can be negotiated when the development team 
comes back for approval of the elevations. Mr. Baugh stated that he has not analyzed 
all of the presumptions is 649.J and stated that the code uses presumptions and 
requirements because every presumption may not make sense with every 
circumstance. Committee Member Shepard asked if Committee Member Marchuk was 
suggesting to elevate every presumption in the MUA district to a requirement and stated 
the presumptions that apply to the elevations should be elevated to requirements. 
Committee Member Marchuk stated that he is suggesting that only the presumptions in 
the design section of MUA district be elevated to requirements and agreed that only the 
presumptions applicable to elevations should be elevated to requirements. Committee 
Member Brownell stated that this would be a good compromise. Mr. Baugh stated that 
he does not think the elevation of all presumptions in 649.J should be put on the project 
without doing the proper analysis. Committee Member Marchuk stated that the VPC 
should have had the actual proposed elevations before the development team ever 
came to the VPC.

ACTIONS: 
 
Planning Hearing Officer Recommendation: The Planning Hearing Officer 
recommended denial as filed, approval with modifications and additional 
stipulations. 
 
Village Planning Committee (VPC) Recommendation: The South Mountain 
Village Planning Committee reviewed the request on December 12, 2023. The 
VPC recommended approval with a modification and additional stipulations by a 
vote of 11-0. 
 
DISCUSSION: 
Bill Allison, representative of Withey Morris Baugh, PLC, gave an overview of 
what occurred at the South Mountain VPC meeting. He gave an overview of the 
proposed site and proposed stipulation modifications. He stated no elevations 
were created by the applicant yet but would provide them to the VPC for review 
when ready. 
 
Marcia Busching, village planning committee member, thanked the applicant for 
providing their recommendations to the VPC. She stated the recommendations 
were a “win-win” for everyone involved. 
 
Byron Easton, Planning Hearing Officer, stated he did not have any questions 
and the requests were straightforward. He stated there was no public 
correspondence for the case. He recommended approval with a modification for 
Stipulation 1.a regarding general conformance with the site plan. He 
recommended approval with a modification for Stipulation 1.b regarding a 
detached sidewalk. He recommended approval for Stipulation 1.c regarding 
commercial building height. He stated since the development is no longer a 
commercial development, the stipulation was not needed. He recommended 
approval for Stipulation 1.d regarding a Homeowner’s Association. He 
recommended approval with a modification for Stipulation 1.f regarding interior 
perimeter walls. He stated there was an error in advertising for Stipulation 1.g, 
indicating the original request was to request a deletion instead of a modification. 
He recommended approval for Stipulation 1.g, indicating that the specific number 
of parking stalls is left over from the previous zoning case and would not make 
sense for a residential development. He recommended approval for Stipulation 
2.2a regarding one-story houses. He recommended approval for Stipulation 2.2b 
regarding floor plans. He recommended denial as filed for Stipulation 3 regarding 
Streets and Rights-of-Way. He stated the applicant revised the request to reflect 
comments given by the Street Transportation Department, including keeping 
Stipulation 3.f as originally written. He recommended denial for Stipulation 4.a 
regarding a 25-foot easement on the westside of 32nd Street. He stated the 
stipulation would be deleted instead of modified because the previous case (Item 
No. 1) referenced a 30-foot wide MUTE and a 10-foot wide MUT, exceeding the

Planning Hearing Officer Summary of December 20, 2023 
Application PHO-2-23—Z-73-01-6(8) 
Page 3 
 
 
25’ easement requirement. He recommended approval for Stipulation 4.b 
regarding a technical correction. He recommended approval for Stipulation 5.a 
regarding South Mountain Village Planning Committee notification. He 
recommended approval for Stipulation 5.b regarding construction 
commencement. He recommended adding Stipulation 6, recommended by the 
VPC, regarding pedestrian access. He recommended adding Stipulation 7, 
recommended by the VPC, regarding landscape design, but did not agree with 
the wording. He stated general conformance language will be used for the 
stipulation. He recommended not adding Stipulation 8, recommended by the 
VPC, regarding presumptions applicable to residential elevations. He stated 
presumption language cannot be stipulated. He stated archaeological stipulations 
and a Prop 207 stipulation would be added for this case. 
 
Mr. Allison stated he agreed with Mr. Easton’s recommendations. 
 
Ms. Busching stated she was frustrated. She stated that there have been a few 
situations regarding new development presumptions in the BAOD that have been 
overlooked by site planners. She stated the VPC was trying to add a stipulation 
to reenforce presumptions so they will not be disregarded. She stated no one told 
the village that presumptions cannot be included in the requirements. 
 
Mr. Easton stated you cannot legally stipulated presumptions. He stated if the 
village would like to submit a text amendment to alter the language of 
presumptions in the Zoning Ordinance, they are welcome to. He stated he would 
speak with the South Mountain village planner to see if an educational session 
can be created between the city and the VPC to help better understand what can 
be stipulated. He stated that he already approved a stipulation regarding the 
design of the homes will be reviewed and approved by the South Mountain VPC 
before preliminary site plan approval. He stated they will be given the opportunity 
to see the elevations and if a preliminary review is approved by the VPC, the site 
planner will have clear direction on the design of the homes. 
 
Ms. Busching stated she agreed with Mr. Easton and did not realize the VPC has 
the right to approve prior to preliminary site plan approval. 
 
FINDINGS: 
 
1) The request for modification of Stipulation 1.A regarding general 
conformance to a conceptual site plan is recommended to be approved 
with a modification.  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.

Planning Hearing Officer Summary of December 20, 2023 
Application PHO-2-23—Z-73-01-6(8) 
Page 4 
 
 
 
2) The request to Modify 1.B is approved with a modification. This stipulation 
is now written with updated language and location specificity. The small 
size and irregular shape of the subject parcel limits the ability to provide, 
and need for, detached sidewalks on both sides of the private street. All 
homes will have easy access to the detached sidewalk proposed for the 
east portion of the project to access the open space area and to exit the 
neighborhood to 32nd Street. 
 
3) The request to delete Stipulation 1.c regarding the height of commercial 
buildings is approved.  This Stipulation is no longer pertinent considering 
the new Site Plan and residential nature of the project. 
 
4) The request to modify Stipulation 1.d is approved.  An HOA will be 
responsible to maintain all common areas on site, which are different than 
those installed in the neighborhood across 32nd Street and listed in 
stipulation 1.a. 
 
5) The request to modify Stip 1.f is approved with a modification. This 
modification specifies the location of solid walls as it pertains to this 
request.  The modification also removes the language referencing the 
previous zoning case. 
 
6) The request to modify Stipulation 1.g regarding parking stalls is actually a 
request to delete the stipulation in its entirety.  This request is approved 
due to the fact that the specific number of parking stalls is a leftover from 
the previous zoning case. 
 
7) The request to delete Stipulation 2.1a regarding commercial building 
elevations is approved as it is not applicable to this proposal. 
 
8) The request Request to modify Stipulation 2.2a regarding one-story 
houses is approved. The intent of the stipulation was to prepare for the 
neighborhood being built to the south by staggering the height of the 
houses, however, the neighborhood is already built.  
 
9) The homes will be subject to the proposed, revised stipulation and to 
design guidelines of the MUA and BAO districts. The Owners will not 
develop elevations for the project until this application is concluded and 
the applicant agrees the Village Planning Committee needs the 
opportunity to review the elevations before preliminary site plan approval. 
 
10) The request to delete all of Stipulation 3 is denied as filed. Staff 
recommends the Stipulation 3.f. remain as written due to it being a 
standard stipulation for all rezones requiring all streets within and adjacent

Planning Hearing Officer Summary of December 20, 2023 
Application PHO-2-23—Z-73-01-6(8) 
Page 5 
 
 
to a development, both public and private, be constructed to City of 
Phoenix and ADA standards. The stipulation still applies to this site as it 
requires all streets needing to be built with this development to be 
constructed to City of Phoenix standards. 
 
11) The request to modify Stipulation 4.a regarding a 25-foot easement on the 
west side of 32nd Street is approved.  The location of the easement has 
been specified to the current project. 
 
12) The technical correction to remove the Library Department from the 
stipulation has been approved. 
 
13) The request to modify Stipulation 5.a regarding South Mountain Village 
Planning   Committee notification is approved. 
 
14) The request to delete Stipulation 5.b regarding construction 
commencement is approved.
