Background/Issues/Analysis 
 
SUBJECT SITE 
1. 
This request is to rezone a 6.90-acre site located at the southeast of 34th Street and 
Thomas Road from 4.60 acres of C-2 (Intermediate Commercial), 1.70 acres of R1-6 
(Single-Family Residence), and 0.60-acres of P-1 (Passenger Automobile Parking, 
Limited) to PUD (Planned Unit Development) to allow multifamily residential with a 
maximum of 310 units and up to 58 feet in height, and ground floor commercial.  
2. The General Plan Land Use Map designation for the subject site is Commercial and 
Residential 3.5 to 5 dwelling units per acre. The Commercial land use category 
accommodates office, retail, restaurant and multifamily development at varying 
scales and intensity of uses. This request is consistent with the Commercial 
designation; however, it is inconsistent with the Residential 3.5 to 5 dwelling unit per 
acre designation as it proposes a higher density. A General Plan amendment is not 
required as the portion of the site that is inconsistent with the General Plan Land 
Use Map is less than 10 acres.  
General Plan Land Use Map Source: City of Phoenix Planning and Development Department

Staff Report: Z-18-23-8

The Land Use Map designation to the north and east is Residential 15+ dwelling 
units per acre. The designation to the south and southwest is Residential 3.5 to 5 
dwelling units per acre. To the west, along Thomas Road, is designated as 
Commercial. 
EXISTING CONDITIONS & SURROUNDING ZONING 
3. The site fronts Thomas Road, an arterial street and contains a two-story furniture 
store and a one-story commercial building with retail, commercial services, and 
office uses.  
To the north, across Thomas Road, are various commercial uses such as a 
restaurant, retail stores, a smoke shop, and liquor store zoned C-2 (Intermediate 
Commercial). To the east, across 35th Street are single-family residences zoned R1-
6 (Single-Family Residence), and a pet care facility zoned C-2. To the south and to 
the west are single-family residences zoned R1-6, and to the west and across 34th 
Street is a fitness/wellness center zoned C-1 (Neighborhood Retail) and single-
family residential zoned R1-6. 
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 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. Land Use 
The PUD proposes a multifamily residential development that will include ground 
floor retail and restaurant space. The PUD allows for multifamily residential and 
limited commercial uses, along Thomas Road, as shown on the site plan attached 
as an exhibit.  
6. Development Standards 
The PUD proposes a multifamily residential building with a maximum of 310 units. 
The maximum building height is 58 feet. The subject site is not located within a 
Village Core, buildings in the surrounding area are one to two-stories tall, and the 
highest intensity zoning district is R-5 (Multifamily Residence District), which permits 
a maximum height of 48 feet. The PUD narrative proposes a height step back, 
shown in the exhibit below, ranging from 24 feet, 35 feet, and 58 feet. In the R-5 
Zoning District, development adjacent to a single-family residence district is limited 
to a 15-foot maximum height within 10 feet of single-family zoned district, which may 
be increased one foot for each additional foot of building setback, to the maximum 
permitted height. Section A in the PUD Narrative, shown in the exhibit below, 
proposes a maximum height of 58 feet within 27 feet of a single-family residence

Staff Report: Z-18-23-8 
September 5, 2023

district. In R-5, a 43-foot setback would be required for a maximum height of 48 feet; 
and a 30-foot setback would be required for a maximum height of 35 feet. To be 
compatible with the maximum allowable heights along the southern perimeter staff 
recommends that the maximum height be limited to 35 feet within 52 feet of the 
southernmost point along Section “A”. This is addressed in Stipulation No. 1.b and d. 
Further, multifamily residential projects are required to provide a minimum five-foot 
wide landscape area planted with trees along interior property lines (Section 
703.B.3.b(3) of the Zoning Ordinance). To provide a sufficient buffer and to be 
consistent with the citywide requirement for multifamily residential projects, staff 
recommends a minimum five-foot wide landscape setback be provided in Landscape 
Zone 3. This is addressed in Stipulation No. 1.c.   
The PUD Narrative includes a 20-foot building setback along Thomas Road, 20 to 
33 feet along 34th Street, 20 to 40 feet along 35th Street, and 27 to 60 feet along the 
southern property line. The provided setbacks for Thomas Road, 34th Street and 
35th Street will include detached sidewalks and landscaping.  
 
Building Height and Setback Plan, Source: Snell & Wilmer  
A minimum of seven percent of the gross site area will be open space, which is more 
than the minimum open space requirements for multifamily residential uses in the

Phoenix Zoning Ordinance.  
The primary vehicular access is proposed on Thomas Road. Parking for residents 
and guests will be provided on site in an internalized above grade parking structure, 
which will be primarily screened by the residential building. Parking will include 
electric vehicle installed infrastructure for 20 parking spaces and 10 percent 
prepared for future connectivity. Enhanced bicycle amenities will be provided on site, 
such as secure bicycle parking for residents and guest parking. 
The primary street frontage is along Thomas Road to the north. The PUD proposes 
pedestrian-friendly design standards such as shaded detached sidewalks along 
Thomas Road and landscaped setbacks with enhanced shading standards, which is 
consistent with the Street Classification Map cross section for Thomas Road.  
Below is a summary of the key development standards set forth in the narrative.

7. Landscape Standards 
The PUD establishes standards to promote shading along each perimeter of the 
proposed site. All required landscaped areas are required to have minimum two-inch 
caliper trees with 50 percent live coverage. This offers consistent coverage and is an 
enhancement from the Zoning Ordinance standards in some areas and a reduction 
in other areas.  
The following exhibit depicts the landscape concept for the site.

8.  Fences/Walls: The proposed development will include an eight-foot wall along the 
southern property line to provide screening and maintain the privacy of the adjacent 
single-family residences. Walls along Thomas Road will not exceed 40 inches and 
the maximum height along 34th Street and 35th Street will not exceed six feet.  
9.  Shade: A combination of architectural and vegetative elements will provide shading 
throughout the proposed development. Sidewalk and pathway coverage will be 
shaded to a minimum of 65 percent. Open space and amenity areas will be shaded 
up to 40 percent.   
10. Lighting: Onsite and pedestrian illumination shall be provided for safety and 
convenience throughout the proposed development. Lighting provisions are 
consistent with the Zoning Ordinance and City Code standards. Pedestrian lighting 
along walkways will be consistent with the Walkable Urban Code standards in the 
Zoning Ordinance. 
11. Design Guidelines 
The PUD proposes enhanced design guidelines to ensure the building is 
aesthetically pleasing and compatible with the surrounding area. The residential 
design concept includes exterior amenities that promote aesthetic and functional 
features such as lighting and wayfinding. Landscaping will include a variety of shade 
trees to emphasize the streetscape as well foster pedestrian access in the area. The 
building design features a mix of exterior materials, colors and textures with 
balconies, patios and seating areas. Earth tones and a variety of building materials 
are proposed, as well as an enhanced corner treatment along 35th Street and 
Thomas Road. The PUD also requires that 95 percent of the units include at least 
one balcony or patio spaces.

AREA PLANS, OVERLAY DISTRICTS, AND INITIATIVES 
12. 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 
a 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. 
13. 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. By investing in trees and the urban forest, the city can reduce 
its carbon footprint, decrease energy costs, reduce storm water runoff, increase 
biodiversity, address the urban heat island effect, clean the air, and increase 
property values. In addition, trees can help to create walkable streets and vibrant 
pedestrian places. The PUD includes enhanced shading standards to reduce the 
urban heat island effect. 
14. 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. The development will activate the street 
frontages, provide detached sidewalks and provide enhanced landscaping and 
shade along the sidewalks. This is addressed in the PUD Narrative.  
15. 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 proposal incorporates requirements for bicycle parking and electrical charging 
for 10 percent of the required spaces to support micromobility.  
16. 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

Staff Report: Z-18-23-8 
September 5, 2023

containers for multifamily, commercial, and mixed-use developments meeting certain 
criteria. The PUD narrative states that recycling will be a part of the development. 
COMMUNITY INPUT SUMMARY 
17. At the time this staff report was written, one letter in support has been received.  
INTERDEPARTMENTAL COMMENTS 
18. The Street Transportation Department commented that a minimum of 10 feet of 
right-of-way shall be dedicated along Thomas Road, that the developer fund and 
construct a traffic signal at 34th Street and Thomas, that existing irrigation facilities 
along Thomas Road be relocated outside of City right-of-way, and that all street 
improvements be constructed to City and ADA standards. These are addressed in 
Stipulation Nos. 2 through 5. 
OTHER 
19. The Public Transit Department requested that the developer shall dedicate right-of-
way and construct a bus stop pad on eastbound Thomas Road and that trees shall 
be placed to provide 50 percent shade coverage to the bus stop pad at full maturity. 
This is addressed within the PUD Narrative (page 19). 
20. The Aviation Department requested that the property owner record a Notice to 
Prospective Purchasers of Proximity to Airport in order to disclose the existence, and 
operational characteristics of City of Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX) 
to future owners or tenants of the property. This is addressed in Stipulation No. 6.  
21. The site is located in a larger area identified as being archaeologically sensitive. If 
further review by the City of Phoenix Archaeology Office determines the site and 
immediate area to be archaeologically sensitive, and if no previous archaeological 
projects have been conducted within this project area, it is recommended that 
archaeological Phase I data testing of this area be conducted. Phase II 
archaeological data recovery excavations may be necessary based upon the results 
of the testing. A qualified archaeologist must make this determination in consultation 
with the City of Phoenix Archaeologist. In the event archaeological materials are 
encountered during construction, all ground disturbing activities must cease within a 
33-foot radius 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 Nos. 7 through 9.  
22. 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 preliminary site plan approval. This is 
addressed in Stipulation No. 10. 
23. Development and use of the site is subject to all applicable codes and ordinances.

Statement for the Empire proposed project located at Thomas Rd. and 34th St. 
Hello Everyone, 
My name is Jill Blewett, a long time resident in the Rudyville Neighborhood and I am here to 
read a statement from our Neighborhood Association President, Chelsea who could not be here 
today. 
On behalf of the Rudyville Neighborhood, we want to express our support for the proposed 
multifamily project to be located at Thomas Rd. and 34th St. Case #2-18-23-8
Over the past 7 months, representatives of the Empire team have worked with our 
neighborhood association and individual residents to ensure this proposed development is 
welcomed as a development that will both enhance and support our neighborhood. Both 
sides have worked tirelessly to address any concerns and to develop solutions that are 
agreeable to all stakeholders. 
We commend our combined efforts as this is an example of smart development and active 
community involvement. The Empire group bas shown their desire to be part of our 
community and their commitment to listening to our concerns is appreciated. 
The proposed project will redevelop an underutilized parcel with luxury residential and 
high-quality amenities, thus ensuring the stability of our neighborhood. Further, Empire 
Group's commitment to ensuring privacy and security for adjacent neighbors is of the 
utmost importance. We also look forward to the enhanced shaded landscape and 
pedestrian experience that will be created along Thomas, 34th and 35th streets. These and 
the other elements of this project will be a welcome addition and maintain our current 
goals as a neighborhood and larger community to create a safer and healthier environment 
to increase the quality of life in our neighborhood. 
It should also be noted that some have suggested the ground floor units have access to the 
street on both Thomas Rd. and 34th St. While we understand this offers value in some 
areas of the city, this is not a feature our neighbors would prefer. While it may be suitable 
in the downtown or mid-town area, this is not something we feel would benefit the adjacent 
single-family homes and could in fact compromise the safety in the area. We have a lot of 
small children in our neighborhood and many of our single family homes have single stall 
driveways. Having ground floor access on 34th st, Thomas and/or 35th st will promote 
street parking where it is essential for the current residents in our neighborhood to park 
and it will also promote more traffic where the safety of our children playing outside will be 
compromised. We strongly ask that if this is suggested, the preference of the Rudyville 
neighborhood take precedent. We feel the project as proposed is ideal and neighbors most 
affected by this option prefer the plans remain as proposed today. 
Attached to this statement are signatures of residents on 34th st and 35th st in opposition of 
ground floor access. Since these residents are the most impacted, their request and position 
should be supported by any persons involved in this project.

I don’t wish to speak but I do want to offer my letter of support.  
 
I am writing this letter to express my support for the proposed rezoning and development of 34th + Thomas.  
 
As a longtime member of this community, I firmly believe that this rezoning effort and development will bring significant 
benefits that will not only enhance the neighborhood but also enrich the lives of it’s residents. 
 
First and foremost, the rezoning will provide an opportunity for positive growth and development within the community. By 
attracting other investors to see the potential of 34th + Thomas, we can stimulate economic activity, create new jobs, and 
encourage the establishment of businesses that cater to the needs and aspirations of the residents. 
 
Furthermore, the rezoning will serve as a catalyst for improving the overall quality of life for the people living here.  
 
With carefully planned development projects, we can look forward to better infrastructure, improved public spaces, and 
increased accessibility to essential amenities. This, in turn, will foster a greater sense of community pride and cohesion among 
residents. 
 
One of the most compelling reasons to support this rezoning and development effort is the potential increase in property 
values. As the neighborhood flourishes and attracts new investments, the value of homes in the area is likely to appreciate. 
This not only benefits homeowners but also provides a solid foundation for building generational wealth and ensuring the 
long-term sustainability of the community. 
 
In conclusion, I believe that the rezoning and development of 34th + Thomas is a pivotal step towards creating a thriving, 
vibrant, and welcoming community that we can all be proud to call home. I kindly request that you carefully consider and 
approve this rezoning proposal and development for the betterment of our neighborhood. 
 
Lastly, the developers willingness to engage with the community and address concerns has been evident throughout the 
planning process so much that I now feel like a developer myself. They haven’t gave me a hard hat; nor an orange vest, but 
they have shown genuine interests in our concerns every step of the way.  
 
I have lived here for 29 years and my grandparents have called this neighborhood home since 1979. It’s nice to be apart of this 
change and I eagerly wait to see the positive changes that this development can bring.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I am confident that your decision will have a lasting positive impact on the lives of 
the residents and the future of 34th + Thomas.  
 
Sincerely, 
 
Giovanni Canez
