STAFF REPORT
Compliance with General Plan:
The 2020 General Plan identifies this site as being in the Thunderbird Core
Planning Area and the use being in compliance with the plan. 
City Zoning/Land Use
The property is in the Urban Corridor (UC) zoning and the Thunderbird
Road Overlay District. The proposed Auto Services Use requires a
Conditional Use Permit and Site Plan approval by the governing body. 
ARS 28-8481 Land Use
Compatibility
The site is located outside the Luke Air Force Base (LAFB) Noise Contour
Zone, but inside the Military Airport Territory Area and is not subject to
review from LAFB for land use compatibility with ARS 28-8481.
Considerations:
The applicant is requesting approval of a conditional use permit and site
plan  to develop 0.29 acres of land located on Thunderbird Road for an
express car wash operation. The site plan does not meet the Thunderbird
Road Overlay District requirement of the principal building being located
along the front of the property and the ground floor facade being at least 50%
width of the parcel. The applicant is formally requesting to divert from these
provisions pursuant to zoning code §154.081.F.
