I. Proposal Overview 
Roth Development Corp. and Russell Organics LLC (the “Developers”) plan to 
develop an approximately 75-acre property located at the SWC of Bethany 
Home Road and Sarival Road (the “Property”). See Aerial and Vicinity Map 
attached as Exhibit 1. This application requests approval of a Planned Area 
Development (“PAD”) District to allow a combination of industrial distribution 
and warehouse uses in a development called Organics Loop 303. The 
Applicant seeks to develop the Property in accordance with the Light 
Industrial (M-1) zoning and modify development standards to create a state-
of-the-art industrial development nearby the expanding State Route 303 Loop 
transportation corridor. 
 
The Property has been used for agricultural purposes for many years and is 
unimproved with no buildings. State Route 303 Loop is ¼ mile to the west and 
Bethany Home Road is the northern boundary of the site to Sarival Avenue, 
which is the eastern boundary of the site. The southern boundary is the Missouri 
Avenue Alignment. Rezoning the property to PAD for industrial uses will permit 
the development of industrial and other uses which are compatible with the 
City of Glendale General Plan Land Use designation of Luke Compatible Land 
Use (LCLU). This land use designation complies with state statute 28-8481 
concerning land uses within the vicinity of a military installation. Site design will 
provide further mitigation due to it proximity to the end of the runway for Luke. 
 
The site is located within the Luke Air Force Base noise contours of 75 DNL and 
70 DNL. Industrial land uses for these properties are appropriate, considering 
the accident potential and noise impacts from daily activities conducted on 
the base and due to the proximity of the project to the runway. 
 
As noted above, the property is ¼ mile to the east of State Route 303 Loop, 
and adjacent to Bethany Home Road. The property is bounded by similar 
proposed Industrial warehouses to the north. Farmland is to the east of the site 
along Sarival Avenue. The adjacent property to the south is also vacant 
farmland. To the West beyond SR 303 Loop is also vacant land within 
Unincorporated 
Maricopa 
County. 
Luke 
Airforce 
Base 
is 
located 
approximately ½ mile to the northeast of the site. 
 
The Organics Loop 303 is crafted to permit only uses which are compatible 
with the mission of Luke Air Force Base, the City of Glendale General Plan, and 
Arizona Revised Statutes for territory near a military airport. The Planned Area

Organics Loop 303 
Planned Area Development 
Glendale, Arizona

Development regulations are tailored to the intended development. 
 
 
 
 
II. Existing Zoning and General Plan 
 
The property is currently outside of the City of Glendale and is within 
Unincorporated Maricopa County. The the site is currently zoned as Rural 43 
(RU-43) within the County. See Zoning Map attached at Exhibit 2. The site will 
be annexed into the City of Glendale as part of the entitlement process. The 
Organics Loop 303 partners propose to rezone the entire Property from RU-43 
(County) to PAD for industrial and commercial uses within the City of Glendale.  
The Legal Description for the Project is attached as Exhibit 10. 
 
The proposed PAD zoning is consistent with the industrial PAD zoning on nearby 
properties along the Loop 303 corridor and to the east of Sarival Avenue. There 
are many other similar industrial zoning designations that occur along the 
nearby Loop 303 Freeway corridor and in other jurisdictions as well. The corridor 
is experiencing rapid growth as a major industrial and distribution hub. 
 
The proposed annexation into the City of Glendale will convert the current 
Maricopa County General Plan Land Use classification of Military Compatible 
to the closest City of Glendale General Plan Land Use category, which would 
be the Luke Compatible Land Use (LCLU). As that the complimentary land use 
is LCLU a focus will be on uses that provide the safest compatibility with the 
adjacent Air Force Base. The proposed use is consistent with the Glendale 
General Plan Land Use designation of Luke Compatible Land Use (LCLU) and 
provides the safest compatible land uses such as light industrial distribution 
and warehouse. The Luke Compatible Land Use Area recommends non-
residential uses as well as safe and compatible development, like the type 
proposed with this application. See the General Plan Map shown as Exhibit 3. 
Future industrial development is encouraged over other options. Constructing 
an industrial distribution and warehouse development is in conformance with 
the existing City of Glendale General Plan for the Property. 
 
III. Planned Area Development 
 
a) 
Overview and Intent 
The intent of the Organics Loop 303 PAD is to allow industrial; 
manufacturing, e-commerce, and office uses as well as development 
standards that ensure appropriate flexibility for such developments. The 
PAD will allow commercial, industrial and employment uses that are 
compatible with the nearby Loop 303 Freeway Corridor and are in 
conformance with state statute 28-8481, the underlying zoning, and 
recommended uses along the loop 303 freeway. Market conditions will

Organics Loop 303 
Planned Area Development 
Glendale, Arizona              
 6  
 
determine the amount of commercial uses that will develop within this 
project. 
 
 
A specific user(s) has not been identified at this time. The plans, exhibits, 
and images presented herein are conceptual only and intending to 
convey the type, intensity, and quality of development expected at this 
location. Once specific users are identified, a design review application 
(site plan, building architecture, landscaping, signage, grading, etc.) 
will be submitted for administrative review by City of Glendale staff. 
 
b) 
Permitted Uses 
This PAD and the permitted uses defined below are intended to 
accommodate 
industries 
involving 
office, 
light 
manufacturing, 
assembling, warehousing, e-commerce, and wholesale activities. 
Associated office and related retail uses are also included within this 
district. The manufacturing or assembly of finished products so long as 
the primary use of the property is not the basic processing and 
compounding of raw materials is allowed. 
 
Uses shall include all uses allowed in the Light Industrial (M-1) and 
General Commercial (C-2) zoning districts of the Glendale Zoning 
Ordinance as well as offices for professional, administrative, clerical, 
financial, medical, business, or professional services; medical, dental 
and clinical laboratories / research facilities; business support services; 
data center, call centers and data recovery centers; wholesale sales 
and distribution of finished goods; commercial services, restaurants, 
retail stores, general merchandising, hardware stores, medical or dental 
clinics, financial institutions, automotive services, fueling stations and 
personal services as accessory to the primary use and not to exceed 5% 
of any contiguous 80 acres. Any use currently requiring a conditional use 
permit within the existing Glendale Zoning Ordinance shall be required 
to obtain a conditional use permit. 
 
In addition to the uses listed above, all uses subject to conditions per 
section 5.843 of the Glendale Zoning Ordinance shall be included along 
with uses subject to conditional use permits per section 5.844, accessory 
uses per section 5.845 and temporary uses per section 3.920 of the 
Glendale Zoning Ordinance.  
 
 
c) Site Plan 
To maximize and attract potential users, the PAD introduces a 
conceptual site plan to help illustrate how the property could be 
designed. This ensures optimal flexibility while demonstrating potential

Organics Loop 303 
Planned Area Development 
Glendale, Arizona              
 7  
 
development option areas of focus. The site plan shows how the site 
could possibly be developed but does not necessarily depict what will 
be constructed on the site. See Site Plan Concept & Circulation as Exhibit 
4. The conceptual site plan indicates layout areas; however, different 
configurations of M-1 and C-2 uses could be arranged based on market 
conditions, to attract the widest range of uses and allow maximum 
flexibility for future development.  The largest building site could cover up 
to 51% of any of the 80-acre parcels. These representative diagrams are 
based on possible layout concepts shown, but do not reflect an ultimate 
final site plan. Final site plans could be of different configurations and 
vary in size with additional square feet. Lot coverages would remain 
under 50% for most design scenarios. 
 
The proposed site plan has a main access point from State Route 303 
Loop at Bethany Home Road and multiple secondary access points 
along Sarival Avenue. The circulation shown on site plan provides a 
conceptual framework for moving through the site based on 
anticipated uses and will provide for the separation of cars and trucks 
where possible. A parking study will be completed to justify the parking 
provided for the various projected uses based upon the deviations 
noted in the development standards below and previous parking 
studies for similar developments in the area.  
 
d) Development Standards 
The development standards, below in Table A, are created specifically 
for the Organics Loop 303 PAD and mostly facilitate industrial warehouse 
development. More specifically, the permitted heights and intensity will 
permit the development of a highly attractive, state of the art, industrial 
warehouse and distribution development representative of the types of 
projects throughout the 303 Freeway Corridor. Should a conflict exist 
between any provision in this PAD and the Glendale Zoning Ordinance, 
the PAD shall apply.

PAD Deviation Rationale 
i. Height: Building height needs to be flexible to meet specific 
tenant needs. The typical anticipated industrial building in this 
market may suggest 40’ of clear height inside, resulting in a 
building height in the 50’ range. However, there is a potential for 
a unique distribution or manufacturing use that may include 
multiple levels of storage platforms or automated systems, 
resulting in the need for increased height. Site appurtenances,

Organics Loop 303 
Planned Area Development 
Glendale, Arizona

such as material silos or other building specific support equipment, 
may be required to exceed the building height. In such cases, 
location and treatment of such elements shall be considered and 
incorporated into the overall design solution, not to exceed 115’. 
 
ii. FAR: There is a distinction between additional building floors and 
storage 
mezzanines. 
Storage 
mezzanines 
or 
multi-level 
automated storage platforms are incorporated into the tall clear 
height of a large distribution facility. These mezzanines fall within a 
portion of the already defined volume and  footprint  of  the  
building  and  do  not  impact  the  visual appearance or height 
of the exterior of the building, thus not impacting the perceived 
density addressed by FAR. They are often limited in actual 
employee population and used for a different type of storage or 
processing that does not require the otherwise high bay volume 
of the space. 
 
iii. Parking: 
Reduced 
parking 
ratios 
requested 
for 
the 
warehouse/distribution portion of the building consider the 
anticipated heavy storage/limited occupancy characteristics of 
the potential tenant mix for the Development. As storage systems 
become more automated and based on historical ratios of 
warehouse 
employees 
to 
actual 
storage 
space, 
fewer 
employees are required. Therefore, parking standards hav e been 
reduced to accommodate demand. Mezzanine areas, due to 
their typical storage use, should not be included in parking 
calculations unless they are specifically occupied full time by 
employees as their primary workspace. Such calculations should 
be evaluated with specific tenant plans when submitted for 
entitlements. Based on the large open spaces available within 
the dock areas of these types of buildings, supplemental parking 
areas are available based on specific tenant needs, providing 
flexibility to increase parking ratios as required. In addition, 
consideration should be given to nearby retail parking that 
attracts fewer employees, less trips and fewer vehicle trips to 
nearby, supporting industrial, warehouse, and distribution uses. 
 
iv. Signage: Signage heights need to be flexible to meet specific 
tenant needs. Typically, the norm for an anticipated industrial 
development may suggest 20’. However, due to the size and 
uniqueness of this proposal, there is the potential for multiple 
tenants throughout the development that may include space 
that is not directly on the freeway. Typically, businesses that would 
be attracted this type of development would anticipate some 
type of proximity to the freeway. These types of freeway 
monument signs would provide that “proximity” to those

Organics Loop 303 
Planned Area Development 
Glendale, Arizona              
 10  
 
businesses and could potentially represent up to 5 major tenants 
and reach heights of up to 50’ with the inclusion of electronic 
displays. Therefore, a deviation in the code is requested to be 
allowed for this unique freeway corridor development to 
encourage development. 
 
 
e) 
Performance Standards/Use Limitations 
i. Nuisances: Uses shall be permitted within this district, unless such uses 
are or may become obnoxious or offensive by reason of odor, dust, 
smoke, noise, gas fumes, cinders, vibrations, glare, refuse, or air or 
water pollution emissions. 
ii. Enclosures: All uses permitted in this district shall be typically 
conducted within a fully enclosed building unless otherwise 
permitted. Outside storage of materials and equipment related to 
the primary activity is permitted provided that the outside storage 
area is screened by a wall. Design and height shall be approved by 
the approved authorizing administrative body. 
iii. Hazards: All explosive and hazardous materials and processes 
require approval by Glendale Fire Department. All manufacturing, 
storage, 
and 
waste 
processes 
shall 
meet 
all 
safety 
and 
environmental standards as administered by the fire department. 
iv. Dark Skies: Lighting plans shall be submitted with each Design 
Review application illustrating that on-site lighting does not exceed 
one-foot candle at the property line.  On-sight lighting shall be dark 
sky compliant, and all lighting shall comply with the City of Glendale 
Outdoor Light Control Ordinance. 
 
f) 
Landscape Buffer and Dock Screens 
Landscape buffers and screen wall requirements shall conform to 
Section 7.200 and 7.201 of the Glendale Zoning Ordinance. This includes 
landscape buffers for portion of the site that are adjacent to RU-43 
zoning in the County. The design, materials and colors for all walls, 
fences and screening devices visible from public view will be uniform in 
appearance. A 4-foot decorative wall or landscape berm shall be used 
to screen on-site parking areas from street view. An 8’ wall enclosing the 
truck courts shall be provided where appropriate within each parcel or 
project to help screen the truck loading and maneuvering area. 
 
IV. Landscape Design 
 
Landscaping will be designed to complement the building architecture 
overall design theme for the site. All materials will comply with the City of

Organics Loop 303 
Planned Area Development 
Glendale, Arizona              
 11  
 
Glendale low water use plant palette. The Sarival and Bethany Avenue 
frontage landscaping will provide an attractive thematic public edge to the 
property. Perimeter site boundaries will define the parcel and provide a 
pleasing thematic common boundary with adjacent sites. Enhanced 
landscaping will further define potential building entries with canopy trees at 
City-required spacing to provide shading for the parking areas. A variety of 
tree species, combined with a colorful combination of shrubs and 
groundcovers, will provide an overall landscape composition at an 
appropriate scale to enhance the overall development and its visual impact 
on its surroundings. A conceptual landscape plan is included with this 
submittal to portray a representative design. More details regarding plantings, 
types, locations and quantities will be a part of future design review 
applications to address the proportion of landscape materials to specific 
building design and height. See Representative Landscape Plan as Exhibit 5. A 
certification will be provided from our licensed Landscape Architect during 
Design Review stating that the landscape plan meets the requirements of this 
PAD. 
 
V. Architecture Form and Character 
 
Design requirements of large industrial facilities vary with specific uses and 
tenant requirements. Due to the size of this project, a thematic character will 
be woven into the fabric of the Project that unifies the architecture, signage, 
and landscape during the design review phase of the project. The specific 
uses combined with careful aesthetic considerations for large building masses 
will provide general guidance that will inform the design process for the 
architecture. Design palette must remain flexible as that specific future 
tenants are unknown at this time.   The building may take on the characteristics 
of a specific tenant, if that tenant is identified prior to development, or may 
be more ‘generic’, designed to appeal to a broad range of potential tenants 
(particularly if development commences before a specific tenant is known). 
Examples of typical archetypes can be found along the nearby Loop 303 
Corridor further to the south. 
 
Scale is an important consideration when looking at the overall design. While 
the scale of development along the freeway should be appropriate for views 
at high speeds, this proposal will focus on the more distant views that surround 
the site. Elements should generally be larger and easier to identify from 
automobiles along both Loop 303 and Sarival Avenue. Similarly, the building(s) 
should be set back from Sarival Avenue, so the scale of the buildings does not 
dominate the views in the area. The level of architectural fenestration and 
detail will increase adjacent to building entries and commercial corners where 
pedestrian scaled elements should be included in the architectural design to 
emphasize human scale. Commercial corners will generally follow a similar 
industrial design and feel set by the nearby warehouse design precedent.

Organics Loop 303 
Planned Area Development 
Glendale, Arizona              
 12  
 
 
Color and pattern will be used to de-emphasize building mass and develop 
visual interest that creates an overall pleasing aesthetic on all sides of the 
building. The color palette may include warm to cool neutral colors that 
embrace the surrounding desert hues. Unique features may include limited 
color accents to provide additional visual interest, while also addressing 
corporate image.  The primary building material will be painted, articulated 
concrete wall panels, and may feature accent materials that provide 
additional texture or colors where areas of enhancement are appropriate. 
Store front glazing will be incorporated at anticipated office areas to provide 
daylight to workspaces. Metal canopies help the architecture respond to the 
climate by providing shade, shadow, and accents to the building. 
 
Building parapets will be extended above the roof line to provide screening 
of roof top equipment from view at adjacent public right of ways along Sarival 
Avenue and Bethany Home Road. Dock and outdoor storage areas will be 
screened with an 8’ masonry wall with detail and color to complement the 
building architecture. A similar 4’ high wall will screen parking along Sarival 
Avenue, Glendale Avenue and Bethany Home Road. 
 
A representative architectural elevations image exhibit is included to convey a 
representative palette of building styles. The image shown in the elevation 
collage are consistent with similar approved nearby Planned Area 
Developments. Specific details regarding architecture, materials, colors, etc. 
will be a part of the future design review application. See Typical Architectural 
Site Plan as Exhibit 4 and Architectural Elevations as Exhibit 6. 
 
VI. Circulation and Access 
 
The Property is well situated from a regional access perspective; it is in 
immediate proximity of the 303 Freeway and is easily accessible from Bethany 
Home Road.  
 
Alternative access routes may be determined by the City as needed to 
provide legal access to properties to the south and west  of this site. Any form 
of roadway in this area will be built to minimum standards as directed by 
federal rules that guide developments within accident potential zones and no 
build areas associated with Luke AFB.  
 
The Missouri Avenue alignment will either be a shared access easement or a 
dedicated ROW for a local collector.  This will be determined at a later point 
as the development progresses. An easement is preferred to minimize 
maintenance by the City.

Organics Loop 303 
Planned Area Development 
Glendale, Arizona

Sarival Avenue will be the primary north-south access for the project and will 
be built to Maricopa County(MCDOT) standards with a 65-foot half street right-
of-way.  
Bethany Home will be designed to the City of Glendale, A-1 Arterial Section 
for the half street adjacent to the project.  
 
A traffic report is recommended during the Design Review phase of the 
project as the site plan is further refined and exact building locations are 
determined based on appropriate circulation and market conditions.  
 
a) Existing Conditions 
In the immediate vicinity of the project, Sarival Avenue is a the primary 
north-south, two-way, two lane roadway that serves nearby farmland 
and provides access to surrounding commercial and institutional 
parcels. Bethany Home Road provide east-west access to the State 
Route 303 Loop Freeway. 
 
After discussions with City of Glendale transportation staff, the projects 
Annexation will not include the west side of Sarival Avenue to the 
centerline of the road. Rather this road will remain in the county and the 
half street shall be built to MCDOT standards. This City of Glendale will 
not annex any portion of Sarival south of Bethany Home Road. 
 
b) Proposed Street Improvements 
As part of the proposed Organics Loop 303 site, offsite improvements for 
the half street will occur along Sarival Avenue, immediately adjacent to 
the project site. Bethany Home Road will be a 55-foot right-of-way and 
be widened from a two-lane roadway to a five-lane roadway (with a 
two-way center left turn lane) with curb, gutter, sidewalk, and 
associated roadway lighting. Existing paving shall be removed and 
replaced to the centerline of Bethany Home Road directly north of the 
site. Shared private access roads will be constructed internally to the 
west of the site to provide access from Bethany Home Road to 
properties south and west of this project. This shared private access drive 
will be terminated in a cul-de-sac approximately ¼ of a mile south of 
Bethany Home Road. A traffic study will be provided during the design 
review process for the project, to determine the final circulation plans 
for the project. The overall project circulation shall be guided by the 
culmination of these traffic studies. 
 
VII. Grading and Drainage 
 
The grading and drainage for the site will be designed to retain the 100-year, 
2-hour storm event in accordance with the City of Glendale drainage design

Organics Loop 303 
Planned Area Development 
Glendale, Arizona              
 14  
 
guidelines.  
Storm drainage will be conveyed via roof drains, downspouts and overland 
flow across the parking lots and truck dock areas into either catch basins or 
curb openings which will outfall to a combination of surface and/or 
underground retention areas. The required storage volume will dissipate within 
36 hours via a combination of natural percolation and drywells. 
All projects adjacent to public streets shall provide retention for the adjacent 
half-street within on-site retention basins.  The retention basins and storm drain 
inlets shall be sized for the 100-year storm event. 
 
VIII.  Infrastructure and Utilities 
 
Water will be provided to the site by Adaman Water District. Adaman has 
stated that they will allow domestic and fire water to be provided from a 16-
inch waterline extension that runs along Sarival Avenue. This proposed 8” 
waterline will be looped into smaller extensions to avoid a dead-end water 
service. See the Organics Loop 303 Water Exhibit attached as Exhibit 7. 
Sewer will be provided by Epcor. Epcor has a treatment plant south of the site 
that provides sewer service to this property. A 30” sewer main has been 
constructed along Sarival Avenue to Bethany Home Road. From that point a 
new 15” sewer line will extend from the 30” main along Sarival just north of 
Bethany Home Avenue. See the Organics Loop 303 Sewer Exhibit attached as 
Exhibit 8. 
 
IX. Signage 
 
This development will provide functional and attractive signage that 
compliments the architecture of the overall Organics Loop 303 site. This PAD 
application sets forth the general location, quantity, and maximum height of 
monument signage for Organics Loop 303. One multi-tenant sign, up to 50-
feet in height, will occur along Bethany Home Road and two multi-tenant signs 
will occur on Sarival Avenue. On-site development identification signs, up to 
20-feet in height will also occur along the private access drive to provide 
proper project identification on the west side of the site. Directional wayfinding 
may be located throughout the development to point users to their desired 
destination. All signs will utilize the established color and materials palette that 
is applied to the building(s) within the Organics Loop 303 site. A separate 
Comprehensive Sign Package shall be submitted during design review to 
obtain City of Glendale approval for all signs. Deviations from City approval 
may be obtained through an administrative process if the sign is in substantial 
conformance with the sign package approved through Design Review. 
 
Once future tenants are identified, a Comprehensive Sign Package (CSP) will 
be provided during design review with consistent signage for tenants and

Planned Area Development 
Glendale, Arizona              
 15  
 
users of Organics Loop 303. The future CSP will contain guidelines for color, 
materials, location of wall signage, allowable areas, illumination, and 
configuration of logo and copy presentations. The proposed sign locations in 
this PAD are conceptual and the final determination of sign locations will be 
identified in the CSP submittal. 
 
X. 
Development Phases 
 
The Property may be developed in a single-user phase, or with multiple 
phases/users as market conditions warrant. The intent is to install infrastructure 
and improve the street frontage and access way adjacent to each phase as 
it is developed. It is anticipated that the initial phase will include at least one 
building, street frontage improvements, and retention basins. Plans for 
individual buildings/phases will be submitted to the City of Glendale to ensure 
proper and orderly development. 
 
XI. Summary 
 
The PAD and the proposed site plan will provide the required entitlements 
needed to develop the Organics Loop 303. The Property will be zoned PAD 
and the site is within a General Plan land use designation that encourages 
development specifically for land parcels close to Luke Air Force Base.  The 
proposed development substantially conforms with the development 
objectives of the General Plan for this location. The development will 
complement the surrounding area and provide improved benefits and new 
employment opportunities to the City of Glendale and its residents and to the 
surrounding unincorporated areas within the County. 
 
XII. Consistency with Surrounding PADs 
 
Significant portions of this PAD were referenced from the proposed adjacent 
PAD, made public record for the Lincoln Logistic property located in what will 
now become the center of this site. This PAD has attempted to be consistent 
with Lincoln Logistic This PAD to maintain consistency with the direction and 
vision of development in the area along the Loop 303 corridor, as requested 
in discussions with City staff. 
 
Note: Prior to the City’s issuance of permit(s) for vertical construction of 
building(s) or other improvements, Developer shall submit FAA form 7460-1 to 
the FAA. Regional Office for the FAA’s determination of whether such 
building(s) or other improvements (as designed) would be a hazard to aviation 
and what additional conditions (if any) are recommended by the FAA. 
 
Additional efforts are already underway and will continue to be made to work 
with Luke AFB to determine which areas are allowed to have structures and

those that will need to remain clear of all objects to remain in compliance with 
Air Force regulations pertaining to the base and its runway. Building heights will 
be kept under the 60-foot height limit needed for the base RADAR coverage. 
It should also be noted that the area will be subject to approximately 170 over 
flights per day, any potential tenants shall be notified about Luke AFB 
operations.
