City Zoning/Land Use An Exterior Storage Yard and Office Land Use is permitted by right in an Employment/Industry (E/I) zoning district but requires a review and recommendation from the Planning Commission and a final action from Council for the site plan to be approved, and for the project to continue with the construction permitting process. ARS 28-8481 Land Use Compatibility The site is located inside the Luke Air Force Base (LAFB) Noise Contour Zone, and the Military Airport Territory Area and is subject to review from LAFB for land use compatibility w ith ARS 28-8481. Please see the attached review letter from LAFB. Considerations: The applicant is requesting a site plan approval for an Exterior Storage Yard and Office Use on Butler Drive to relocate their business to El Mirage. The intended use is for truck trailer storage and limited maintenance. Harriem establishes agreements with trucking companies seeking to store their over-the-road trailers for short term periods that are typically less than one week. Some of these trucking companies may also request to store the semi- truck with trailer over-night as well, but the focus is the short- term storage of the trailers that are typically 53’ in length. Harriem intends to construct an approximate 5,000sf (84’ x 60’) office with two service bays and parts storage. This structure will be a pre-fabricated steel building that will address the current building codes adopted by El Mirage. The on-site maintenance within the garage will be focused on servicing the trailers. The applicant intends to complete the service building and site improvements in one phase. The frontage will be graded for a retention basin, new landscape, and a new security wall/fence with automated gate. The front driveway area and extending east to the front of the garage will be paved. The balance of the property will be scraped and graded to establish a uniform finish using milled asphalt and eventually a decomposed granite surface. The perimeter of the property is currently fenced and partially improved with CMU walls. This perimeter is existing and intended to remain in-place. City Staff Review Staff has reviewed the proposed site plan application and has no further comments.
