The Laveen Village Planning Committee heard this rezoning request on February 14, 
2022 and voted (5-4) to approve the case with modifications. The approved 
modifications to Stipulation No. 1 required the applicant to undergo the Planning 
Hearing Officer process to have the building elevations reviewed and approved prior to 
preliminary site plan approval, in addition to incorporating several elements such as 
windows and a decorative silo. 
As a result of the discussion at the February 14, 2022 Village Planning Committee 
meeting, the applicant has provided updated building elevations attached to this report, 
which incorporate windows, a decorative silo, and a minimum of three distinct building 
materials. 
Due to these changes, staff recommends modifying the following stipulation: 
•
Stipulation No. 1 regarding the building elevations to require general
conformance with the updated elevations date stamped, March 1, 2022, and
ensuring that windows, decorative silo and other design elements are
incorporated into the building elevations.

Good Evening Racelle, 
I am registered to speak on item number 5 at tomorrow’s PC meeting. In case there are any issues with me connecting, 
etc. here are my comments. I’d appreciate it if you could send these to the commissioners.  
 
Thank you, 
Linda Abegg 
 
 
 
Good Evening Commissioners, 
I would like to comment in support of item Z‐SP‐6‐21‐7. I have met with the applicant multiple times as Vice Chair of the 
LVPC. I voted at the LVPC meeting to deny this case because requested information and changes were not provided at 
the LVPC hearing.  
 
Since that meeting, I have met with the applicant regarding the requested changes. As a member of the community, I 
believe that the changes made since the LVPC hearing address the community and committee’s concerns and support 
approval of this special permit with the updated elevations.  
 
Thank you, 
Linda Abegg
