STAFF REPORT 
Compliance with General 
Plan: 
The 2010 General Plan designates this area as part of the 
Neighborhoods Planning Area and is compatible with the General 
Plan’s Land Use Map but requires an action from Council for the Final 
Plat to continue with the submittal, review and approval of the building 
and civil permits.   
 
Considerations: 
The applicant is developing eight (8) acres of vacant land into a Multi-
Family Use located at the southeast corner of Greenway Road and 
Dysart Road. A Conditional Use Permit (CUP) was submitted for review 
and approval as required by Zoning Code §154.052. The El Mirage 
Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of the CUP at 
the December 10, 2019, Public Meeting with a 5-0 vote and Council 
granted approval of the CUP at the January 23, 2020, Public Meeting 
with a 6-0 vote.   
 
Per Zoning Code §155.005 any land, vacant or improved, which is 
divided or proposed to be divided into four or more lots, parcels, sites, 
units, plots, or interests is considered a subdivision and requires a 
Preliminary and Final Plat prior to submitting building and civil plans 
for 
permits. 
The 
applicant submitted a Preliminary Plat Zoning 
Application for review; the Planning and Zoning Commission granted 
approval of the Preliminary Plat on February 11, 2020, with a 5-0 vote.

action from the Council.
