Re:  
PHO Stipulation Modification Request for Rezone case # 195-81-1 
 
 
 
South of Southwest corner of North 21st Avenue and West Parkside Lane 
 
To Whom It May Concern: 
 
Our firm represents LPIV Arizona, LLC (“LPIV”), which is seeking to develop +/- 15.28 gross 
acres of real property zoned A-1 located approximately 320’ south of the southwest corner of 
North 21st Avenue and West Parkside Lane in the Deer Valley area northwest of the Deer Valley 
Airport site. The proposed future development would consist of two warehouse buildings with 
approximately 220,000 sq.ft. of building space, which is an allowed use in the site’s existing A-1 
zoning. The project consists of two (2) parcels: 209-03-293 and 209-03-295 (the “Site”). The 
proposed development will provide a more modern industrial use for the local area that already 
has other A-1 zoning and industrial uses adjacent to the Site as illustrated in Exhibit A attached 
hereto (“Proposed Site Plan”). This request seeks to modify stipulations of the previous rezone 
case as it pertains to specifics of the Site and proposed warehousing improvement.

2 
 
Background 
 
The Site was originally approved for a rezone to A-1 zoning district (case # 195-81-1). The current 
controlling case for the Site is PHO-4-99 which was approved by the Phoenix City Council on 
October 6th, 1999 (the “Rezone”). This rezone case also included properties to the northeast of the 
site (both the site and current APN 209-03-294 as part of parcel 7) and six (6) other parcels known 
as Markham lots 1-6, located to the east of 21st Avenue for a total of approximately 29.7 acres 
(collectively the “Property”). See attached Exhibit B (“Approved Stipulated Site Plan”).  
 
Approval of the 1999 rezone was subject to five (5) stipulations. Stipulation 1 of that approval 
requires that the development be in general conformance with the referenced Exhibit B site plan 
stamped dated on August 3rd, 1999 which showed the Site as part of parcel 7 a vacant site. This 
stipulated site plan was originally generated to show existing and future development on several of 
the Markham lots, not a part of the Site. However, discussions with City of Phoenix Planning staff 
with the Proposed Site Plan requires that the previous stipulations be modified. 
  
 
 
Request 
 
This request seeks to create a new site plan for only the 15.28-acre Site. This request also seeks to 
modify other stipulations with the Proposed Site Plan in mind for the Site only. All other stipulations 
will remain in full force and effect for the other properties that were associated with the original 
Rezone case. A copy of the stipulations with the proposed modifications is also attached hereto as 
Exhibit C.

3 
 
Specifically, this request seeks to: 
 
1. Modify Stipulation 1 which requires general conformance with the 1999 Site Plan. 
 
2. No Modifications to Stipulation 2 which requires ROW to be dedicated and discusses 
roadway improvements.  
 
3. Modify Stipulation 3 which speaks to landscaping theme, setbacks, and screening. 
 
4. No Modifications to Stipulation 4 which requires dust and litter free properties. 
 
5. No Modifications to Stipulation 5 which requires Parcel 7 to comply with A-1 
development standards.  
 
Request to Modify Stipulation 1 
 
Current language: 
 
That new development be in general conformance with the site plan dated 8/3/99. 
 
Proposed Language Changes: 
 
That new development be in general conformance with the site plan dated 8/3/99 10/31/2022. 
 
Final Proposed Stipulation Language: 
 
That new development be in general conformance with the site plan dated 10/31/2022. 
 
Rational: 
 
This stipulation is being modified to permit the Proposed Site Plan. The Proposed Site Plan 
contributes two (2) industrial warehouse buildings, site parking, landscaping/retention and other 
site development features to meet A-1 zoning development standards. The Proposed Site Plan is 
for ultimate buildout to a portion of Parcel 7 from the original site plan that depicted the site as 
vacant at the time.  
 
No Modifications to Stipulation 2 
 
Current Language: 
 
That right-of-way be dedicated, and adjacent to roadways improved in a manner consistent with 
adopted plans at the time of subdivision/site plan approval, as approved by the Development 
Services Department.

4 
 
Comments: 
 
All requirements for right-of-way dedication and improvements are still applicable and are part of 
the site plan review process with the new proposed development.  
 
Request to Modify Stipulation 3 
 
Current Language: 
 
That a landscaping theme creating a strong visual identity be developed for the entryway along 
23rd Avenue (upon redevelopment of Parcel 7) consistent with Commerce Park standards. 
Landscaping shall be provided, within the right-of-way along the east side of 21st Avenue, with a 
minimum 10’ landscape setback (which shall include minimum 15-gallon size drought resistant 
shade trees spaced a maximum 20’ on center, or provided in equivalent groupings). Along the west 
side of 21st Avenue, a 6’ decorative masonry wall shall be provided, to be set back a minimum 
25’ from the right-of-way. The setback area shall be dustproofed in an appropriate manner, as 
approved by Development Services Department. 
 
Proposed Language Changes: 
 
That a landscaping theme creating a strong visual identity be developed for the entryway 
along 23rd Avenue (upon redevelopment of Parcel 7) consistent with Commerce Park 
standards. Landscaping shall be provided, within the right-of-way along the east side of 21st 
Avenue, with a minimum 10’ landscape setback from the property line (allows for driveway 
access as shown on the site plan) (which shall include minimum 15-gallon size drought 
resistant shade trees spaced a maximum 20’ on center, or provided in equivalent groupings). 
Along the west side of 21st Avenue, a 6’ decorative masonry wall shall be provided, to be 
set back a minimum 25’ from the right-of-way. The setback area shall be dustproofed in an 
appropriate manner, as approved by Development Services Department. 
 
Final Proposed Stipulation Language: 
 
Landscaping shall be provided, along 21st Avenue, with a minimum 10’ landscape setback 
from the property line (allows for driveway access as shown on the site plan). The setback 
area shall be dustproofed in an appropriate manner, as approved by Development Services 
Department. 
 
Rational: 
 
The proposed language revisions are consistent with the Proposed Site Plan for warehouse 
development. Landscaping was only to be provided on the east side of 21st Avenue, but the site 
will include a 10’ wide landscaping area along this arterial to add to visual appeal along the site 
frontage. Current zoning regulations for A-1 zoning would require a screening wall for loading 
and unloading if the site is within 100 or 150 feet of a residential district. The Property is not within 
150 feet of a residential district and is surrounded by A-1 zoned parcels with similar uses. 
Therefore, a 6’ screening wall should not be required. Furthermore, the remnant parcel (APN 209-

5 
 
03-294) as part of original rezone approval parcel 7 will still be subject to landscaping theming as 
this parcel has the entryway along 23rd Ave. The subject Site does not have or propose access to 
this arterial as the street alignment currently is not developed to this parcel as shown within the 
current aerial on page 1. 
 
No Modifications to Stipulation 4 
 
Current Language: 
 
That, the site be maintained in a dust and litter free condition, as approved by the Development 
Services Department. 
 
Comments: 
 
The site will be maintained for dust to meet air quality standards and be free of junk, trash, and 
debris. The new development proposal will include paved driveways, aisles, and parking areas to 
limit any issues with dust control typically caused by inadequate surface materials.  
 
No Modifications to Stipulation 5 
 
Current Language: 
 
That independent of the development east of 21st Avenue, Parcel 7 shall comply with A-1 
development standards for the existing use, or seek appropriate variance relief. 
 
 
Comments: 
 
The Site is part of a portion of Parcel 7 and will comply with all A-1 zoning development standards 
where the proposed warehousing use is allowed in the A-1 zoning district. 
 
Conclusion 
 
The Site is ready to develop for industrial warehouse uses and seeks to amend stipulations 
associated with the original zoning case that was approved over 20-years ago that included other 
properties not currently a part of the Proposed Site Plan. The changes landscape setbacks adds to 
the visual appeal and mitigation of disturbance to the surrounding area that is already industrial. 
We appreciate your review and considerations of our request and look forward to continue working 
with Phoenix staff to complete this project. 
 
Sincerely, 
 
TIFFANY & BOSCO, P.A.
