I. 
Introduction and Project Description: 
 
 
Quarles & Brady, LLP represents Anton DevCo ("Anton" or the "Applicant") in regard 
to its request to amend the Cornerstone at Camelback Planned Area Development (the "PAD") 
and the General Plan Designation for the roughly 10.28-acre site located approximately 500 feet 
north of the Northeast corner of 99th Avenue and Camelback Road (5419 and 5205 North 99th 
Avenue, Glendale, AZ 85305; Parcel No. 102-14-648 and Parcel No. 102-14-279) (the 
"Property").  See Aerial and Zoning Maps attached at Tab A. 
 
 
Anton intends to rezone the Property to amend the current Cornerstone at Camelback 
PAD ("Planned Area Development") zoning to construct a new mixed-use development 
consisting of a 320 unit, 4-story multifamily development with approximately 7,070 sq. ft. of 
ground-floor retail near 99th Avenue and approximately 4,000 sq. ft. of internal amenities 
including a leasing office, clubhouse, mailroom and a fitness area. In addition to the mixed-use 
development proposed in this application, the current property owner intends to develop two 
vacant parcels. One for an approximate 20,000 sq. ft. medical office building, and one for an 
approximate 4,000 sq. ft. retail or restaurant use.  In addition to the Amendment to the PAD 
zoning Anton intends to process a Minor General Plan Amendment to change the existing land 
use designation from Planning Commercial to Entertainment Mixed Use to allow the Property 
to be utilized for residential.  
 
 
 
The Property is currently vacant and situated between a self-service warehouse to the 
north and a hotel, bank and restaurants to the east and south. Other vacant parcels, under control 
of the existing property owner, also exist within this master-planned area and the future 
development of those parcels will be discussed in this application, in addition to the proposed 
mixed-use multifamily/retail/flex office use. See Aerial Maps attached at Tab A.  
 
 
The project will consist of three buildings, all four-stories in height with elevators, 
corridors, tuck under single car garages and surface parking. Amenities will include a 4,000 sq. 
ft. of internal amenities including a leasing office, clubhouse, mailroom and a fitness area. 
Exterior amenities will include a pool area, BBQ stations throughout, a putting green and fire 
pits, fireplaces and an outdoor game area. The proposed density is 38 dwelling units per acre and 
will offer both 1 and 2 bedrooms ranging from 745 to 1246 square feet and provide a total of 
552 parking spaces. In addition to the 280,000 sq. ft. of multifamily, this development will 
incorporate 7,070 sq. ft. of new ground-floor commercial/retail uses. Main access to the site will 
be off of 99th Avenue and the Property will be impressively landscaped.  
 
 
In addition to the mixed-use site to be developed by Anton, the overall master-planned 
area includes two additional vacant parcels ripe for development. Please See Vacant Parcel Map 
Exhibits attached at Tab A. In addition to the mixed-use development proposed in this 
application, the current property owner intends to develop Vacant Parcel A as an approximate 
20,000 sq. ft. medical office building, and Vacant Parcel B as an approximate 4,000 sq. ft. retail 
or restaurant use.  Therefore, the aggregate impact of the proposed PAD Amendment and 
associated new development will consist of: (1) 280,000 sq. ft. of new multi-family; (2) 7,070 
sq. ft. of new ground floor retail/restaurant; (3) a 4,000 sq. ft. detached commercial pad for 
retail/restaurant; (4) a 20,000 sq. ft. Medical Office pad; and (5) approximately 4,000 sq. ft. of

internal amenities including a leasing office, clubhouse, mailroom and a fitness area to benefit 
future residents.  See Conceptual Master Plan Exhibit Attached at Tab A.  As part of our research 
and outreach efforts, our development team incorporated feedback and comments from City of 
Glendale leadership to ensure that this application provides a robust plan introducing a full 
mixed-use development into the revised PAD. 
 
II. 
Overview of Citizen Participation Plan: 
 
 
The initial Citizen Participation Plan was approved by City Staff on May 10, 2022. Due 
to COVID-19, the Applicant team held a neighborhood meeting virtually using the Zoom 
platform on June 21, 2022, at 6:00pm. In accordance with Planning Department requirements, 
notification letters informing the public of the upcoming virtual neighborhood meeting were 
mailed June 7, 2022. The notification letter described the proposed request and was mailed to all 
property owners located within 300 feet of the Property, and all “Interested Parties” and 
“Additional Parties” identified by City of Glendale staff. See Notification Area Map and 
Notification Lists attached at Tab B. The mailing envelopes included a return address and the 
City of Glendale logo label identifying the information as a Land Use Application. A notification 
affidavit packet was submitted to City staff on June 10, 2022. See Notification Letter and 
Affidavit Packet attached at Tab B and returned mailings attached at Tab C.  A notification sign 
approved by the City of Glendale will be posted 20 days prior to the August 25, 2022, Planning 
Commission Public Hearing on August 5, 2022, informing the public of the upcoming Glendale 
Planning Commission and Glendale City Council meeting date, time and location. The Sign 
Posting Affidavit Packet will be submitted to the City of Glendale following the posting of the 
sign. 
 
III. 
Virtual Neighborhood Meeting: 
 
 
  
As previously stated, due to COVID-19, the Applicant Team held a neighborhood 
meeting virtually using the Zoom platform on June 21, 2022, at 6:00pm. Nine members of the 
Applicant Team attended including those from Quarles & Brady LLP (Ben Graff and Danielle 
Jordan), Anton DevCo (Michael Yanicelli and Colin Hofmann), and MGCP LLC (Jerry Tokoph 
and Ray) current ownership of the Property. Notification letters were mailed to a total of 190 
individuals, and a total of four individuals, aside from the Applicant Team, attended the meeting 
including Glendale Senior Planner Edward Vigil, Councilmember Joyce Clark, Henry Hervego 
(affiliated with Anton DevCo), and Brian Davis (affiliated with Anton DevCo). However, no 
members of the public or surrounding property owners attended the neighborhood meeting.   
 
 
 
The Applicant Team began the meeting with a PowerPoint presentation with details 
about the proposed project. After the presentation, participants were invited to express questions 
or comments. Councilmember Clark expressed how this development will be an urban and 
walkable environment. The Councilmember also asked various questions regarding the 
development including whether there will be a dog park or dog run on the Property. The 
Applicant Team responded that we are continuing to work through the specific programing of 
the amenities. Councilmember Clark also asked about specific uses being within the ground floor 
retail component and we assured we would work with City Staff to ensure the uses would be

permitted. Councilmember Clark asked about the west facing windows and how the development 
would cut down on heat in those locations and also made suggestions about how to improve the 
exterior elevations and materials. The Applicant Team responded stating that the units facing 
west will be outfitted with interior shades and/or black out shades and due to building, fire and 
sound code due to the distance from the freeway will also help with heat gain.  The Applicant 
Team is also reviewing possible changes to the exterior elevations to respond to the 
Councilmember's comments. The Councilmember also inquired about noise from the nearby 
airport and whether noise would be a concern. The Applicant Team noted that noise from the 
airport is not a concern at this time. Lastly, she asked about price point and overall interior 
finishes. The Applicant Team stated that with the fluctuation in the market the price point will 
be on the upper end. The units will include high end interior upgrades including quartz 
countertops, custom cabinetry, kitchen islands, vinyl flooring, undermount sinks, upgraded 
fixtures, stackable or side by side full size washer and dryer, back splashes, and walk in showers.  
 
 
No concerns or issues were expressed to the client team from the public. To date, neither 
the City of Glendale nor the Applicant have received any opposition to the proposed PAD 
Amendment. If any concerns or questions arise, the Applicant Team will continue to address any 
public concerns in coordination with the City of Glendale Planning Staff.

Re: 
Rezoning Case No. ZON22-10 and Minor General Plan Amendment Case No. 
GPA22-02; 10.28-acre site located approximately 500 feet north of the 
Northeast corner of 99th Avenue and Camelback Road 
 
 
Dear Property Owner or Neighborhood Leader: 
 
The purpose of this letter is to inform you that our firm has recently filed a rezoning request 
on behalf of Anton DevCo (the "Applicant") for a roughly 10.28 acre site located approximately 
500 feet north of the Northeast corner of 99th Avenue and Camelback Road (5419 and 5205 North 
99th Avenue, Glendale, AZ 85305; Parcel No. 102-14-648 and Parcel No. 102-14-279) (the 
"Property")  to amend the current Cornerstone at Camelback PAD ("Planned Area Development") 
zoning to construct a new mixed-use development consisting of a 310 unit, 4-story multifamily 
development with approximately 7,070 sq. ft. of ground-floor retail near 99th Avenue and 
approximately 4,000 sq. ft. of internal amenities including a leasing office, clubhouse, mailroom 
and a fitness area. The revised PAD will also allow for the development of a retail pad and a 
medical office pad. In addition to the Amendment to the PAD zoning Anton intends to process a 
Minor General Plan Amendment to change the existing land use designation from Planning 
Commercial to Entertainment Mixed Use to allow the Property to be utilized for residential.  Please 
see the attached aerial map which shows the location of the new development within the existing 
Cornerstone at Camelback PAD.  If you are an existing business owner in the area, we anticipate 
the new influx of residents and medical office users will provide a new customer base - many of 
whom will be within walking distance of existing retail/commercial and restaurant uses. 
 
 
The project will consist of three buildings, all four-stories in height with elevators, 
corridors, tuck under single car garages and surface parking. Amenities will include 4,000 sq. ft. 
of internal amenities including a leasing office, clubhouse, mailroom and a fitness area. Exterior 
amenities will include a pool area, BBQ stations throughout, a putting green and fire pits, 
fireplaces and an outdoor game area. In addition to the 280,000 sq. ft. of multifamily, this 
development will incorporate 7,070 sq. ft. of ground-floor commercial/retail uses. The proposed 
density is 36.5 dwelling units per acre and will offer both 1 and 2 bedrooms ranging from 745 to

Page 2 
1246 square feet and provide a total of 552 parking spaces. Main access to the site will be off of 
99th Avenue and the Property will be adequately landscaped.  
 
 
 
In addition to the mixed-use site to be developed by Anton, the overall master-planned 
area includes two additional vacant parcels ripe for development. In addition to the mixed-use 
development proposed in this application, the current property owner intends to develop Vacant 
Parcel A as an approximate 20,000 sq. ft. medical office building, and Vacant Parcel B as an 
approximate 4,000 sq. ft. retail or restaurant use.  Therefore, the aggregate impact of the proposed 
PAD Amendment and associated new development will consist of: (1) 280,000 sq. ft. of new 
multi-family; (2) 7,070 sq. ft. of new ground floor retail/restaurant; (3) 4,000 sq. ft. detached 
commercial pad (4) 20,000 sq. ft. Medical Office pad; and (5) approximately 4,000 sq. ft. of 
internal amenities including a leasing office, clubhouse, mailroom and a fitness area to benefit 
future residents. Attached is a copy of the map exhibits, and preliminary plans.  
 
Beyond informing you of the status of our application, the purpose of this letter is to invite 
you to a neighborhood meeting to discuss our proposal, which due to the COVID-19 pandemic, 
will be held virtually online. Our team will show our preliminary site plan layout/design at this 
meeting, and we are looking forward to the opportunity to hear your comments. To participate in 
the neighborhood meeting, please see the meeting details below:
