Subject:
agenda items 5,6,7,8 and 11
For your consideration, 
We are opposed to the increased residential changes in items on the agenda, 5,6,7,8 and 11, requesting 
zoning changes. In the Laveen and Estrella village areas we do not have the infrastructure to support the 
existing residents. The incredible amount of people that would be expected to support the many units planned 
by developers would completely stagger our schools, streets, emergency and safety officers, etc. We beg 
some consideration and no approvals be made until a plan to support the influx of people is studied and made 
operational. 
Thank you, 
Kim and Michael Domovich

RE: Rezoning Case Nos. Z-15-21 and Z-SP-1-21 
 
Dear Mr. Bojorquez-Gaxiola,  
I am writing to express my opposition to the rezoning and special permit for the property located at the 
southeast corner of 67th Avenue and Broadway. The applicant is proposing the use of a self-service 
storage facility for the site and this particular use is not suitable for this area in the Estrella Village.  
I have a few reasons for my opposition to Rezoning Case Nos. Z-15-21 and Z-SP-1-21: 
• 
Concerns with a new self-service and outdoor RV storage facility being adjacent to single-
family residential, and its proximity to two new single-family subdivisions (Meritage Homes) 
• 
Concerns with traffic congestion to and from Loop 202 and at the intersection of Broadway 
and 67th Avenue  
• 
There are currently approximately 8 self-service and/or RV storage facility in proximity to 
the site. 
• 
Concerns with the carbon footprint in the environment of a new structure self-service storage 
facility. The applicant should consider adaptive reuse opportunities in non-residential areas 
that are close to the area they intend to serve.  
• 
With the rise of single-family development with the minimum of a two-car garage in the 
Estrella and Laveen Villages storage is not an issue. These two communities need more 
grocery stores, eateries, and neighborhood retail to provide everyday essentials and services 
to the residents in the area.  
Please deny the Rezoning Case No. Z-SP-1-21 to allow a self-service and RV storage facility on the 
southeast corner of 67th Avenue and Broadway Road. As the city continues to grow and develop around 
grey infrastructure, it is important to put a limit on particular uses, like self-service storage facilities, to 
create thriving communities. Thriving communities are built on a foundation of hope. It is up to 
developers and the City of Phoenix to shape the community to a just future.    
Sincerely,  
Ra’Desha Williams, Estrella Village Resident
