STAFF REPORT
Compliance with General Plan: The 2020 General Plan identifies this site as being in the Thunderbird
Core Planning Area and is in compliance with the plan. 
City Zoning/Land Use
The site is located in the Urban Corridor zoning with the proposed
development requiring a conditional use permit and a site plan approval,
with a recommendation from the Planning and Zoning Commission and
final action from the City Council. 
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 ARS 28-8481, land use compatibility regulations. However,
Luke AFB elects to review the zoning  applications for monitoring
developments near the base, see attached Luke review email. 
Considerations:
The applicant is requesting the approval of a conditional use permit and
site plan to develop the last 0.88 acre commercial pad in the Park Mirage
shopping center located at the southeast corner of Thunderbird Road and
Dysart Road.  The project will be built in one phase with a 2,700 square
foot building, and site and landscaping improvements.  The  planned Jiffy
Lube building will be constructed of masonry block with stucco finish and
painted in colors that are harmonious to the surrounding buildings in the
shopping center and to the southwest  desert color palette. 
City Staff Review
No concerns or objections. 
Stipulations:
The applicant shall consent to and address the TAC Review Comments
mentioned in the July 26, 2022, Memorandum with the submittal of
construction documents. Please see attached TAC Review Comments.
