Compliance with General 
Plan: 
The 2020 General Plan designates this area as part of the 
Neighborhoods Planning Area and is compatible with the 
General Plan Land Use Plan but requires a final action from the 
Planning & Zoning Commission for the development of the 
project.   
 
City Zoning/Land Use 
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, or plots, requires a subdivision preliminary plat 
and final plat.   
 
ARS 28-8481 Land Use 
Compatibility 
The site is located inside the Luke Air Force Base (LAFB) Noise 
Contour Zone, and inside the Military Airport Territory Area and is 
subject to review from LAFB for land use compatibility with ARS 28-
8481. See attached review letter from LAFB.  
 
Considerations: 
The vacant parcel of land is located 500 feet northwest of the El 
Mirage Road and Peoria Avenue intersection.     
 
The applicant purchased the four-acre lot to divide it into four 
one-acre lots to building four individual single-family dwellings. 
The applicant’s request meets the Rural Area zone regulations 
and requirements for lot size and width.  
 
An access easement will be established for the residences to 
access their lots from El Mirage Road. The City of El Mirage will 
provide water and sewer services, private utility companies will 
provide other services.   
 
Once the preliminary plat is approved by the Planning and 
Zoning Commission, the applicant will have one (1) calendar 
year to submit a final plat for staff review and council approval. 
Once approved, the final plat shall be recorded to officially 
divide the land into the four lots.  
 
City Staff Review 
Staff has reviewed the zoning application and has no objections 
to the request.  
 
Stipulations:

Planning Commission

Council  
A Final Plat will be submitted later for staff review and final action 
from Council for the plat to be recorded to officially divide the 
land.
