ATTACHMENT F
Dear Central City Village Planning Committee Members,
My name is Anthony Cox and I am a pastor at Mercy Hill Church, a diverse faith community
that our family has joyfully served since 2014. Our family lives on 9th Ave and Fillmore in
the Triangle Neighborhood, just across the street from the proposed project. I am writing to
express my support of Z-61-22-7.
I adore our community and have dedicated my life to seek the welfare of our city. Our
Church’s members are as diverse as our bus stop and our way of life is to “welcome the
disconnected to an authentic community.” Our Church’s commitment over the past 80 years
has been to demonstrate God’s love to those that society has too often overlooked and
marginalized through provision of food, affordable housing, job training, lay counseling,
education, and community gatherings. However, after ongoing internal and recent external
assessments, our Church family confirmed their desire to sell a portion of the property and
leverage the money to rebuild and reestablish a ministry alongside our community that
fosters trust, inclusivity, innovation, excellence, and sustainability.
I recognize that our footprint is a stewardship in our community that has been entrusted
with a sacred responsibility to leverage for the glory of God and the good of our city. We
consider ourselves land rich and cash poor. Given our current reality, the existing buildings,
which have served our church’s mission and vision for many years, has now become a
hindrance to our ministry. Blight, dark inactive areas, and dilapidated buildings have
fostered a sense of danger among residents in our senior adult housing, and has invited
vagrancy and crime to our neighborhood. Today, our buildings are old and beyond their
functional use, and given years of differed maintenance, the costs have become unbearable.
This project allows us to use the money from the land to strengthen our Church and further
our Church’s mission. This project will enable us to:
•
Stay planted in DTPHX as a kingdom presence for the glory of God and the
good of our neighbors.
•
Contribute to the beautification of the Triangle neighborhood and reducing
blight around our city block.
•
Leverage financial resources to further our mission with functional usage
•
Provide space for collaboration with public, private, and social sectors for
greater community engagement and compassion ministries.
I believe this project helps our church accomplish this end. This project represents a
meaningful investment in the area, which will positively impact the character and quality of
the neighborhood. For this reason, I support Z-61-22-7 and I hope you will too.
With Gratitude,
Anthony Cox
Dear Central City Village Planning Committee Members,
My name is Paul Johnson. I am writing to express my support for Z-61-22-7, a high quality
multifamily project located at the SEC of 9th Ave & Fillmore. As a disclosure I am a partner
with the church on the project.
As a long time supporter of downtown Phoenix, this project helps us extend the benefits that
have come from downtown development, mostly to the East of 7th ave to West of 7th Ave. As
high quality, high density project west of 7th Ave will help bring much more investment dollars
to a side of the street that has had scattered development, but nothing that reaches the quality
of project being proposed.
Along with my partners, the church, are a supporter of improving the West of 7th ave, because
we intend to stay a part of this area. We believe that improving this side of the street, will
benefit all the residences and business that exist there.
In addition to this, the requested zoning is just good land use. Much of the existing proposed
property is already zoned R-5, so it could already go multifamily. However, by rezoning to WU
Code, ti allows staff and the developer the flexibility necessary to create a true urban project,
rather than trying to design around what the existing site would allow, which would result in a
less cohesive project. City staff, has recommended approval, I believe because it is next to a
major arterial, and they know that if this site is developed hodgepodge the area will suffer.
They recommended it as having a strong basis for multifamily at this location.
The units are not subsidized housing that is often misunderstood as the only version of
affordable housing. This is market rent housing, that is affordable for middle class families and
individuals who are finding it more difficult to find housing in our existing market. The product
is designed to be more affordable to the average family or young professional.
Last, the existing buildings are old and are way beyond the structural lifespan of the buildings.
They have no historic value, and currently, unless we can make a change, they create a
significant financial burden on the church. This project allows the church to stay in the area
providing their services, and benefits them and the neighborhood with a quality project.
For these reasons, I strongly support Project Z-61-22-7. I hope you will, too.
Sincerely,
Paul Johnson

Dear Central City Village Planning Committee Members,
My name is Ricky Aulds and I am one of the pastors at Mercy Hill Church. I have had
the privilege to serve our community since moving here in 2014 and then getting
married and having my bridejoin me in 2018. At the present my wife and I live here in
one of the church apartments at 9th Ave and Fillmore in the Triangle Neighborhood, on
the location of the proposed project. I am writing to express my support of Z-61 -22-7.
My wife and I have been called to this community, and along with our church team and
church family, are dedicated to seeking the welfare of our city. This is further evidenced
by the non-profit Mercy Hill Church created called Mercy Ministries to specifically help
care for the most vulnerable of our community, For more than 80 years, our church has
demonstrated God's love to our community through ministries of mercy like the
provision of food, affordable housing, outreach to those battling substance addictions,
counseling, and collaboration with community partners.
We see people as the city's and our church's greatest asset. We seek to prioritize the
needs of people and serving them. Our large property with dilapidating buildings are
increasingly hindering and taking the top priority of our time and energy.
After extensive and thorough assessments, our church family confirmed the desire and
need to sell a portion of the property and reinvest those monies to rebuild on another
location of our footprint and reestablish a on-going vibrant ministry.
Z-61 -22-7 allows us to use the money from the land to strengthen our church and
further our church's mission. Specifically, this project will enable us to remain in
downtown Phoenix for the glory of Good and good of our neighbors; contribute to the
beautification of the Triangle neighborhood; utilize financial resources to further our
mission with functional usage to benefit the church and community; and provide space
to-collaborate with public, private, and social sectors to increasingly help care for our
city through ministries of mercy and compassion.
This project represents a meaningful investment in the area, which will positively impact
the character and quality of the neighborhood. For this reason, I support Z-61 -22-7 and I
hope you will too.

RE: Z-61-22-7 – Trumont Rezoning Request
Members of the Committee:
The Urban Phoenix Project is writing in regards the rezoning request (Z-61-22-7) from Trumont Group
for 745 W. Fillmore Street and its surrounding parcels, related to their proposed multi-family housing
development on the site of the current Mercy Hill Church and associated structures.
Adding housing capacity and density in the areas within and around Downtown is critical considering the
overall shortage of housing, and it is well known that the collective speed at which housing is being
constructed in the city is insufficient. In fact, new residential density in the city core supports objectives
related to sustainability and maximizing the return on taxpayer funded infrastructure investment and
maintenance. We believe this rezoning permits a better class of development than alternatives under
these parcel’s existing zoning. Further, it permits development that is decidedly more urban in nature
than the current use: improved ground floor access, reduced setbacks, increases to density, and an
increase in residents with walkable access to the surrounding neighborhood.
Understanding that the existing Mercy Hill structure is an attractive element within this neighborhood,
we have been pleased to see the developer make several substantial revisions to the site plan and
exterior design to ensure that the new development also provides an attractive and meaningfully
differentiated presence. We would advocate for further increases in density in this development and a
reduction in both parking to bedroom ratio and surface parking area. However, we do not consider
these on their own sufficient cause to block the critical development of additional housing capacity.
We are in favor of this rezoning request and look forward to seeing this project complete and fully
occupied.
Sincerely,
Cory Kincaid

Statement Of Continued Support
Z-61-22-7
Dear Central City Villao,
My Name is
ee Dee Dauw am writing to express
my continued support for zoning case Z-61-22-7, a high quality
multifamily project located at the SEC of 9111 Ave and Fillmore.
The community urges you to vote yes for a multitude of reasons
the most important of which are the following:
1. The Church ( which has played a vital role to this
community for decades) is in dire need of help. Without the
cash from the sale they will become insolvent.
2. Trumont Group - the development team - has done an
immense amount of work with the community and has
made several concessions on their plans after hearing
community feedback. The development team with help
from their architects has delivered 4 revisions.
3. The decaying nature of the Church structures are an eye
sore and are welcoming crime and other nefarious activity.
This neighborhood feels unsafe as a result.
4. This project represents meaningful investment in the area
which will postivly impact the character and quality of the
neighborhood.
5. The majority of the site is already zoned for high density
multifamily. This is a conforming use.
6. This project will provide much needed housing and help
solve the affordability crisis.
For these reasons and many more, I respectfuly request that you
support Z-61-22-7.
Thanks,
RCVD 3/1/2023
I’d probably should start by introduce myself,
My name is Benjamin Hall, and my wife and I have lived in this neighborhood for 13 years.
We not only have our home here, but we have developed two AIA Honor Award winning multifamily properties in
the neighborhood in which we remain the owners and landlords of.
As a community members in our newly reenergized neighborhood association meetings, the community has just
begun to scratch the surface of what the real impact of this new WU zoning would have on the fabric of the
neighborhood.
Specifically, the scale of this project. We essentially will be doubling the population of residents in this
neighborhood on a single parcel that almost occupies an entire city block.
Most of the added impact as outlined below will end up being a conversation with the city and the community in
future discussions. We hope that the voice of this development ownership will be in harmony with the existing
Triangle Neighborhood Association, to not only strengthen our position but to further beautify and protect this
fragile corner of the city.
The neighborhood at this stage has identified a few of the added impacts by this newly introduced WU zoning.
Examples being:
1. A need for neighborhood public trash cans on street corners, which means added trash service
throughout the community.
2. The amplification of existing street parking issues with the possible need for nighttime parking permits.
3. Added police presence / patrolling.
4. New vehicular design strategies like roundabouts and speed bumps to reduce the already high-speed cut
throughs from morning and evening commuters.
5. Additional street lighting for safer pedestrian night walking.
6. Added street crossings for safer pedestrian crossing out of the neighborhood. As we are surrounded on all
three sides by high traffic roads.
These are just a few examples.
We have been hopeful that a neighborly partnership would be formed between this developer and the current
community. This developer would be the largest and loudest single voice of the community organization in the
future. We were optimistic it would be through this re-zoning process that that foundation would be built upon.
Because in the future the added impacts of this project only expedite the effects of what we honestly know is
coming, and that is a denser and larger rental community that will outnumber and outpace homeowners in this
small neighborhood.
Know to the specifics of this parcel itself. The community understands (and frankly has mixed feelings about) what
this new zoning would provide. But it’s been identified that it comes with new opportunities, that are not currently
allowed with current zoning. Like added height, provision for affordable housing (which is different than
“attainable housing”), closer setbacks to the street for the purpose of street activation with commercial and retail
shops on the ground floor. The promotion of true mixed use and live work opportunities. All great attributes that
the WU code zoning provides. All that would or could have verifiable positive outcome for the community and
surrounding public. But instead, the proposed plan from the developer appears to be cherry picking aspects of the
new zoning code like: (high unit density, increased lot coverage and reduced setbacks) while turning its back to the
other parts mentioned prior. From what is currently understood the development is a 100% insular, with no
streetside public activated retail spaces. No opportunity for the community to patron the amenities spaces within.
Frankly it’s not a publicly accessible project at all, which seems counter to the spirit of the WU code itself. In fact, I
think this project might operate more like a gated community.
Now understanding, that the ripple effect of a project of this scale in such a small neighborhood. Its mere presence
will be felt through surrounding neighborhoods as well like FQ Story, and Grand Ave. Ironically, this project has
galvanized members of all these neighborhoods under one common objective. (Which frankly I think is low
hanging fruit)
1. The preservation of the bell tower (which we had to bring to the developer’s attention is protected in the
existing setback that already govern the site.)
2. The preservation of the original double wythe constructed brick colonnade (again we have explained that the
cost savings of preserving the authentic construction and its structurally sound footings would yield them a
financial saving vs their proposal to reconstructing, in the exact same location a faux version of this historic
architecture feature.)
3. The preservation and reinvented use of the existing 7,000 sf sanctuary space located on the NW corner of the
parcel. Programed by developer (how they see fit) to be the community component / amenity that would be
accessible to the community and the greater City of Phoenix as outlined in the WU code objective.
When volunteering neighborhood design professional’s asked point blank to the developer. If a alternative site
plan configuration, which preserves these three objectives while maintaining the developers proforma objective
would even be (in the form of the unit count, parking count, and maintaining their proposed height.) considered
acceptable. The developer’s direct response was:
“We have no intentions of proposing any new site plan configuration other than the one already presented.”
Shane Essert during the public community meeting on 02/09/2023
That declaration from Shane was a bit alarming to me.
Ultimately this unfortunately feels like we may not be working with a future community member that has the
same long-term interest as the community itself. Which is very disheartening and concerning.
I’m just going to say what I hope is not the quite part outload. And this is purely the pessimistic in me speaking.
It feels like the goal is to have an unencumbered lot with a new WU high-density zoning that would double the
value of the land, making it prime for a lot resale opportunity.
By carving out these stipulations as concessions deemed valuable by the community. It’s at the point we know the
values of the community and the developer align. In short, we want to make sure that they are going to be long-
term partners and an ally not just to the community but Mercy Hill the church for their future redeveloped across
the street, as they too will most likely need to go through the same re-zoning process due to the desire in include
more than a church facility and act more like a vertical campus with outreach facilities.
Simply put, a short-term transactional opportunity with no string attached could leave Mercy Hill and the
community vulnerable. A parcel almost the size of a city block scrapped of its historical value located in the heart
of the community while we wait for the next speculative builder to propose a different design is the ultimate
scenario we want to avoid.
If I have extra time, I am going to try to give an analogy of what I think is happening here. And in some ways as a
small developer, I can sympathize with the developer here. They have chosen to not move forward using the “by
right” process and instead knowingly or unknowingly have entered a process that is much more difficult. The
process is designed give the community a real seat at the table to discuss how the “cake is actually baked”. This is
about discussing the fundamental level of how a building operates and what tangible services it can provide to the
larger context.
From listening in on multiple conversations from the developing party they have consciously or unconsciously
attempted to guide the conversation away to topics about height, color, and “styles” which circumnavigate the
substant nature of the what the re-zoning process is supposed to be about. It should be about how the actual cake
is baked. What functioning spaces comprise the building as a whole.
Phrases like “not penciling out” or “finically unsustainable” have been thrown around in previous meetings. It
requires me to step back and remind myself as a community member it is not the burden or the responsibility of
the community to protect the profit margins of the development. Perspective is important here; the city agenda
notes specify the parcel to be 3.24 acres large. Which is approximately 141,000 sf. If preserving a 7,000 sf footprint
which represents a little under 5% of the site.
If the opportunity of shifting a few site plan components, like the fragmented East portion of the design to be
located on South edge like what Bob Graham had visually demonstrated as a plausible maneuver that would free
up the sanctuary corner for preservation which would make all request whole. This developer would galvanize the
all the support and opposition members with the simple stork of creative thinking. But if this is considered the
bridge too far, too big of a hardship because it changes the visual dominating presents the developer desires at the
corner of Fillmore and 9th Ave. If this is the concession which truly is enough to tip the scale of a project this size.
That should be majorly concerning and should be considered a red flag to everyone here.
