The companion rezoning case, Z-31-22-7, proposes intermediate commercial zoning
on the site, and would allow commercial services for existing and future residents of
the area. As stipulated, rezoning case Z-31-22-7 would require future development on
the site to incorporate features such as open space, bicycle parking, and pedestrian
connections to help activate the Rio Salado frontage.

alignment of the future State Route 30 (SR-30) freeway, which will serve as a major
