RESOLUTION NO.
A RESOLUTION OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MESA,
APPROVING AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO ENTER
INTO A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT RELATING TO THE
DEVELOPMENT PROJECT COMMONLY KNOWN AS “PARK NORTH”
LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 275 FEET EAST OF THE NORTHEAST
CORNER OF SOUTH POWER ROAD AND EAST GUADALUPE ROAD IN
MESA, ARIZONA.
Whereas, ExDev Park North, LLC (“Owner”) owns approximately 5.05 +/- acres of property located
approximately 275 feet east of the northeast corner of South Power Road and East Guadalupe Road
consisting of APN 304-05-982A (the “Property”).
Whereas, the Property is currently zoned Limited Commercial with a Planned Area Development
overlay zone (“LC-PAD”) and Owner requested a rezoning from LC-PAD to Multiple Residence-3
with a Planned Area Development (RM-3-PAD) and Site Plan Review to allow for an attached single
residence development on the Property through Zoning Case ZON24-00708.
Whereas, as a condition of the rezoning the City is requiring, and Owner has agreed to, certain
obligations to ensure the planned residential development is appropriate for the Property due to its
location and configuration. Owner has agreed to construct, install, and maintain landscaping and two
pathways with pedestrian gates on parcels adjacent to the Property, and to provide notice to residents
of the possibility of noise and light intrusion from a nearby park. These actions by Owner will ensure
the development of high-quality residential property, enhance the community’s livability and
connectivity, and minimize possible negative impacts on residents based upon the location and
configuration of the Property.
Whereas, Arizona Revised Statute § 9-500.05 authorizes the City to enter into a development
agreement with any person or entity having an interest in real property in Mesa related to the
development of the property so long as the development agreement is consistent with the City’s
general plan or specific plan, if any, applicable to the property on the date the development
agreement is executed.
Whereas, City and Owner desire to enter into a development agreement to memorialize their
agreement (“Development Agreement”).
Whereas, City Council hereby determines it is appropriate to enter into the Development Agreement
as contemplated herein.
Now, therefore, be it resolved by the City Council of the City of Mesa as follows:
Section 1: The Development Agreement is approved and the City Manager, or their designee, is
authorized and directed to enter into the Development Agreement, together with all other documents
and amendments thereto that are necessary to carry out the provisions of the Development
Agreement.
Section 2: The City Manager or their designee is authorized to make any modifications and

amendments to the terms set forth in the Development Agreement, so long as such modifications do
not materially alter the overall structure of the agreement as was presented to the City Council.
Passed and adopted by the Mesa City Council on October 5, 2026.
APPROVED:
Mark Freeman, Mayor
