Project Description
Elianto is a master-planned community located in the northwestern portion of the City of
Buckeye (the “City”) and included within the Tartesso North Community Master Plan
(“Tartesso North CMP”). As part of a strategic refinement of the original 2004 master plan,
Mattamy Homes (“Master Developer”) is proposing to establish the Cascade Planned Area
Development (“PAD”), to create a distinct, modernized entitlement framework tailored to
the portion of Elianto, east of the Sun Valley Parkway. The remainder of Tartesso North,
approximately 1,104 acres, continues to operate under its existing entitlements and
development agreements.
The PAD introduces a Village-based planning structure that organizes The Cascade anto
into a series of smaller, identifiable planning areas connected through coordinated
mobility, open space, and design systems. This structure allows the community to evolve
with clarity and flexibility while maintaining a cohesive overall vision. It also transitions the
Site from the City’s former CMP approach to the current PAD model, which now serves as
the City’s primary entitlement mechanism for large-scale master-planned communities.
The Cascade is located north of Thomas Road and east of Sun Valley Parkway, between
the White Tank and Belmont Mountains (the “Site”). The PAD establishes a consolidated
set of Development Standards and Design Guidelines tailored specifically to this Site.
These provisions reflect the desert setting, align with the long-range vision of the Imagine
Buckeye 2040 General Plan, and provide the regulatory foundation for future subdivision,
infrastructure planning, and community design within Elianto.
Which residents of the City, adjacent property owners, interested parties who have
submitted a request to the City to be notified of any rezoning pursuant to ARS 9-
462.03, adjacent political jurisdictions, and public agencies with jurisdiction over the
property may be affected by the application.
At least 15 days prior to the neighborhood meeting and again at least 15 days prior to
the Planning & Zoning Commission public hearing, individual letters will be sent to all
property owners within 500’ of the Property and interested parties/stakeholders in the
surrounding area subject to this entitlement request. The letter will adhere to all City of
Buckeye notification requirements and will adequately notify the surrounding property
owners of the proposal. We intend to update this initial citizen participation plan with
more details of our expanded outreach efforts once identified.
How those interested in and potentially affected by an applicant will be notified
that an application has been made.
In accordance with Section 8.2.6 of the 2010 Development Code, we will provide notice
using the following procedures which will specify (1) the date, time, and place of the
Page 2 of 6

neighborhood meeting/public hearing, (2) describe the Property with the street address,
legal description, or general description and nearest cross streets, (3) the nature, scope,
and purpose of the proposed action, (4) indicate that the interested parties may appear
at the hearing and speak on the matter, and (5) indicate where additional information on
the matter may be obtained.
Mailed Notice
In accordance with Section 8.2.6 and Table 8.2-1 of the 2010 Development Code,
we will mail individual letters via first class mail to all property owners within 500’
of the Property at least 15 days prior to the scheduled date of the neighborhood
meeting and public hearings. Interested parties and stakeholders in the
surrounding area subject to this entitlement request will also be notified. The letter
will adhere to all City notification requirements and will adequately notify the
surrounding property owners of the proposal. The City will also provide notice in
accordance with ARS 9-462.04. We will provide the Development Services
Department with an Affidavit of Mailing certifying that all required notices were
timely mailed. As stated, Master Developer intends to create a more robust
outreach plan than the City minimum requirements. We intend to update this
initial citizen participation plan with more details of our expanded outreach efforts
once identified.
Published Notice
We will publish notice in a newspaper of general circulation at least 15, but no
more than 45 days before the scheduled hearing dates. We will provide the
Development Services Department with an Affidavit of Publication.
Posted Notice
We will need to discuss with City staff appropriate locations for site posting the
Property in a prominent place, clearly visible from a major arterial street (locations
to be approved by City) which will remain on the Property for a period of at least
15 days prior to the neighborhood meeting. The closest major roadways are Sun
Valley Parkway and Thomas Road. We will post the signs on the Property once the
location of the signs are determined and approved by City Staff. We will maintain
the sign in good condition and, when hearing dates are identified but at least 15
days prior to the first public hearing, update the signs to include the date, time,
and location of future P&Z and Council meeting. The signs will be removed within
10 days after the public hearing.

How those interested and potentially affected parties will be informed of the
substance of the change, amendment or development proposed by the application.
We will respond to all input and comments as they are received. Our responses will be
provided to City Staff for their records. Our office will follow-up with interested individuals
and City Staff as necessary to ensure their concerns are heard and all relevant procedures
are followed. Further, we will ensure all necessary information is shared continuously
regarding the status of the request. The City will be provided with copies of our
correspondence, letters, and information shared with stakeholders. In addition, maps and
lists of the notified stakeholders and property owners will be included in our final Citizen
Participation Results Report. Master Developer intends to expand its outreach to other
stakeholder groups in the community. Updates to this plan will reflect this expanded
outreach effort.
The applicant’s schedule for the completion of the citizen participation plan.
Mailed notices will be completed and sent at least 15 days prior to neighborhood meeting
and public hearings and the proper affidavits will be provided to the City. Additionally,
the Property will be posted once the posting locations are determined by City Staff prior
to the hearings as well as any required legal notices within the newspaper of general
circulation within the City, most likely the Arizona Republic.
If requested, we will meet with any interested individual or stakeholder after the
notification letters have been sent and the Property has been properly posted. At least
21 days prior to the Planning & Zoning Commission public hearing we will provide City
Staff with a completed Citizen Participation Results Report, which will include the details
and techniques, used to involve the public and provide a summary of concerns, issues,
and resolutions to these issues. Our public outreach will be continuous and will occur
throughout the PAD rezone process.
How the applicant will keep the Planning Department informed on the status of
their citizen participation efforts.
We will provide the Development Services Departments with a written affidavit regarding
the procedures and timing for mailing and publishing. We will also provide an affidavit
with the site posting.
The final Citizen Participation Results Report will be completed at least 15 days prior to
the Planning Commission hearing date and will include the following:
(i) Dates and locations of all meetings where citizens were invited to discuss
the applicant’s proposal;
(ii) Content, dates mailed, and numbers of mailings including letters, meeting
notices, newsletters and other publications;
Page 4 of 6

(iii) Where residents property owners, and interested parties receiving notices,
newsletters or other written material are located; and
(iv) The number of people that participated in the process
(v) A summary of concerns, issues and problems expressed during the process,
including:
a. The substance of the concerns, issues, and problems
b. How we addressed or will address the concerns expressed during the
process; and
c. Concerns, issues and problems the applicant is unwilling or unable to
address and why.
We will update Development Services via email of all important issues that may arise
during our public outreach. If additional public outreach occurs after the submittal of the
Citizen Participation Results Report, we will provide updates to inform Development
Services and City Council. Master Developer looks forward to providing the City with a
comprehensive outreach effort during and towards the end of the entitlement process.
Citizen Review Report
Since the initial citizen review plan submittal, we have submitted an additional case, the
Elianto Major CMP Amendment. After our initial submittal, we have contacted and
provided information to the other owners within the application of the PAD’s, DA’s and
CMP amendments progress. We have had several discussions and correspondence with
representatives of Tartesso. We have had one phone call from an adjacent property
owners realtor regarding access issues.
We communicated with City staff on coordinating the neighborhood open house required
for the PAD and CMP amendment submittals. It was agreed upon that Monday evening
of April 20, 2026, was an acceptable date for our open house meeting. The meeting began
at 5:30 P.M. at Tartesso Elementary School, 29677 W. Indianola Ave. within the Tartesso
community to the west of Elianto.
Attached to this report at Tab 1 is the notification letter, the map of the property owners
within 500 feet of the property (Tab 2) and the list of property owners (Tab 3).
Neighborhood Open House Report
On April 20th, we held a neighborhood open house in Tartesso, which is directly west of
the PAD and CMP amendment proposal. We held the meeting at Tartesso Elementary
School in the media room. There were two (2) total attendees. One attendee, Mr. Thomas
Bertalon, was given a minor presentation on all of the graphics present at the open house.
Page 5 of 6

He asked very poignant questions and we responded to all of his questions. He was very
impressed with our proposal and stated that he was in favor of the proposal. He took a
comment card on his way out and indicated that he may send it to City staff.
The second attendee, Mr. Joe Schramm from Quantum Capital, was also given a brief
individual presentation as he walked through the boards placed throughout the media
room and asked questions and took photos of the boards. Mr. Schramm’s firm represents
the larger Elianto property located north of the developed neighborhoods of Tartesso
and remaining within the original Elianto CMP. He stated that the proposal was a good
thing for this area of Buckeye and that more rooftops will benefit all properties in the area.
Mr. Ken Galica was present and heard the positive statements from both attendees. The
sign in sheet is also attached to this report at Tab 4.
In working with City staff, we have decided that the cases are ready for public hearings. In
preparation for hearings, we have conducted the public hearing notice requirements.
Please refer to Tab 5 for the required public hearing notification letter and affidavit. This
letter was sent to the same list of stakeholders and adjacent property owners within 500
feet that was sent for the neighborhood open house.
Please refer to Tab 6 for required legal ad in the newspaper and affidavit.
Finally, please refer to Tab 7 for required site posting and affidavit that updated the signs
indicating the public hearing date.
If there is any follow up questions from any interested neighbors or stakeholders, we will
provide the City with an update to the citizen participation plan. Other than a realtor
asking general questions on an adjacent property and access, there has been no further
comments from the public on this case.

RE: PLZM-25-0005 – Elianto Major Community Master Plan Amendment and Planned Area Development Proposal
Dear neighbors and stakeholders:
Mattamy Arizona, LLC (“Mattamy Homes”) would like to invite you to attend a neighborhood meeting regarding their
proposed Major Community Master Plan Amendment (“CMP Amendment”) and Planned Area Development (“PAD”) request

and encompasses approximately 2,750 acres of land. Please refer to the attached aerial and location map for Elianto’s
location within the City. The CMP Amendment component of this request is limited to removing the subject property
from the existing Elianto CMP. The remainder of the Elianto CMP will remain unchanged and continue under its existing
approvals. The proposed PAD establishes a separate entitlement framework for the Elianto property east of the
parkway. The proposed PAD will guide development of the Elianto property as an independent master planned community.
We invite you to join us for an open house neighborhood meeting to discuss and learn more about the proposed CMP
Amendment and PAD proposal.

this time, public hearings are not scheduled. As this application proceeds, the City’s Planning and Zoning Department will
make a determination as to the date and time of the City public hearings. Another notification letter will be mailed to you
at least fifteen (15) days prior to the first public hearing date.
If you wish to provide input on this matter, you may attend neighborhood meeting on Monday, April 20, 2026 or at the
