RESOLUTION NO. R22-73 
 
A RESOLUTION OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF 
GLENDALE, 
MARICOPA 
COUNTY, 
 
ARIZONA, 
AUTHORIZING AND DIRECTING THE ENTERING INTO OF A 
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT WITH RYAN COMPANIES US, 
INC., A MINNESOTA CORPORATION IN THE WEST GLENDALE 
SERVICE AREA FOR STREET IN-LIEU FEES AND STREET 
INFRASTRUCTURE. 
 
 
WHEREAS, Arizona Revised Statutes (A.R.S.) § 9-463.05 provides a framework for cities to 
assess, collect and administer development impact fees; and 
 
WHEREAS, as required by law, the City retained the services of an outside consultant to 
complete  an update  of the  City’s  development  impact  fees  for  compliance  with the  requirements of 
A.R.S. § 9-463.05; and 
 
WHEREAS, the report prepared by the outside firm of TischlerBise entitled Land Use 
Assumptions, Infrastructure Improvements Plan and Development Fee Report, September 2019, 
did not calculate a streets-related development impact fee for what the study called the West Glendale 
Service Area due to the unknown nature of development and the associated street infrastructure;  and 
 
WHEREAS, the report recommends the City may want to enter into development agreements 
with developers to collect payments to help cover the costs of street infrastructure improvements on a 
case-by-case basis; and 
 
WHEREAS, the City has determined that due to the extensive growth and rapid rate of 
development applications in the West Glendale Service Area, it is necessary and appropriate to collect  an 
in-lieu fee, formally called the Streets In-Lieu Fee (“SILF”) to ensure this new growth pays its 
proportionate share of street infrastructure improvements; and 
 
WHEREAS, for efficiency and consistency purposes, the City has developed a template entitled 
Development Agreement – Streets In-Lieu Fee: Industrial, West Glendale Service Area to be 
executed between the City and Ryan Companies US for industrial projects in the West Glendale Service 
Area. 
 
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GLENDALE as follows: 
 
SECTION 1. That it is deemed in the best interest of the City of Glendale and its citizens that the 
City of Glendale use the development agreement template entitled Development Agreement - Streets In-
Lieu  Fee: Industrial, West Glendale Service Area to enter into  development   agreements

with developers of industrial projects in the West Glendale Area. Such agreements will be on file in the 
office of the City Clerk of the City of Glendale. 
 
SECTION 2. That the  City Manager  and City Clerk are authorized and directed to execute 
and deliver such agreement on behalf of the City of Glendale. 
 
PASSED, ADOPTED AND APPROVED by the Mayor and Council of the City of Glendale,
