Overview / Purpose & Intent The Veterans Community Project (“VCP”) is currently working with the City of Glendale on land owned by the City located north of the northwest corner of 63rd Avenue and Orangewood Avenue (i.e., approximately 10.25 gross acres) (the “Property”). The Property is vacant and comprises seven parcels: 143-34-001B, 143-34-005A, 143-34-006C, 143-34-008G, 143-34- 008H, 143-34-009A, and 143-34-010A. Per the City of Glendale Engineering Land Department (Jayme Chapin, P.E.), a new deed will be recorded transferring ownership from the City of Glendale to the VCP via a metes-bounds legal description combining the lots as one (1) lot for development. See Exhibit 1: Aerial Map for reference. Veterans Community Project - Overview The Veterans Community Project emerged from a shared vision among a group of former servicemen who all recognized the critical need for comprehensive support for their fellow veterans experiencing homelessness. This visionary group embarked on a mission to create an organization that would address the ongoing challenges being faced by veterans transitioning from military service to civilian life. The result was first established in 2016 with the development of the Veterans Community Project residing in Kansas City, Missouri. The VCP seeks to empower veterans and their families, by sufficiently providing the necessary resources and care needed to improve the overall well-being of former servicemen and women. The VCP's endearing initiative and persistent dedication for this movement did not go unnoticed. This assistance program began to receive overwhelming support and recognition from the community, government agencies, and philanthropic organizations. This reception allowed the VCP to expand their services to communities across the country, with the objective of combating the homeless crisis among veterans nationwide. This inspiring project came from a critical and ongoing observation from the group, who continuingly witnessed their fellow servicemen getting inadequate care needed from a traditional transitional housing program. Often veterans participating in this program experience insufficient support and necessary resources for them to be reintegrated successfully. With a deep understanding of the physical, emotional, and psychological distress being experienced by veterans, the founders of the VCP envisioned a more innovative and holistic approach to tackling veteran homelessness to bridge the gap in existing services. By recognizing the need for a successful housing initiative for veterans, the group sought out experts of existing organizations and agencies within the social services community. The VCP established partnerships to collaborate with established programs within the City, County, and State to support Homeless Veterans. The Village Center houses the VCP staff. The staff at this Glendale facility is not projected to exceed 15 persons at any given time. Staff is on site during business hours; staff does not remain overnight at the Village Center. Services are provided to VCP residents only; services are not available to members of the general public. Page 6 13065.1.5155021.1 The small home concept, which would serve as a foundational element of VCP's housing program, identified that privacy, security, and a sense of belonging are crucial for Veterans on their path to stability. The founders designed and constructed purpose-built small homes tailored to meet the unique needs of Veterans. These small homes were carefully planned, taking into consideration the placement of doors, windows, and other features to enhance the safety and well-being of Veterans, particularly those impacted by post-traumatic stress disorder (“PTSD”). With the small homes community serving as a central element, VCP saw immediate and profound results with these small homes and the support programs offered. Veterans who had previously struggled to find suitable housing and support services now had a place they could call home. The sense of privacy, security, and stability provided by the small homes created an environment conducive to healing and reintegration. VCP housing is entirely transitional. The intent is to stabilize our residents so that they can then move on to permanent, independent housing. VCP works so that most of its residents stay for several months, around a year, but the maximum stay can last as long as 24 months. The structure of Veterans Community Project with its national headquarters in Kansas City allows for substantial support of each site, a guarantee of quality control over programming, as well as a respect for localism. Each VCP campus operates with independence and productive autonomy. This is important from a philanthropic perspective because it is the reason why every dollar raised specifically for a VCP campus by local donors goes to the operation and growth of that campus, not to VCP’s national headquarters or any other VCP campuses across the nation. Money raised for a specific VCP stays with it. It is worth noting that in the United States, the issue of homeless veterans remains a pressing concern. According to the most recent data from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”), an estimated 38,000 veterans experienced homelessness on a single night in January 2023. This figure represents a slight decrease compared to previous years, reflecting the progress made in addressing this critical issue. However, there is more to be done to ensure that every Veteran has a stable and secure place to call home. Veterans, who make up 10.6% of the U.S. population, are twice as likely to experience homelessness when compared to non-military citizens. Recent studies have also shown that female Veterans have a homelessness rate that is more than twice that of their civilian counterparts. Unsheltered Veterans are more than 90% men. Veterans Community Project is excited about the opportunity to develop a quality Veterans small homes community with ancillary support services with the support of the City of Glendale. Page 7 13065.1.5155021.1 Request The City of Glendale’s General Plan Land Use Designation on the VCP parcels is Light Industrial (“LI”) with multiple zoning categories (i.e., M-1, C-3, and R-4). See Exhibit 2: Existing Zoning Map for reference. The applicant is seeking approval for a Minor General Plan Amendment from the LI designation to 8.65 gross acres of High Density Residential: 12.0 - 20.0 dwelling units per acre (“HDR-20”) and 1.59 gross acres of Office (“OFC”). The request to rezone to a Planned Area Development (“PAD”) is to develop a residential community of smaller homes that provide transitional housing, coinciding with assisting services, to aid homeless veterans and those returning from their military service. See Exhibit 3: Proposed Zoning Map for reference. The purpose of this PAD request is to facilitate the development of a small homes community which will provide approximately fifty (50) small, site-built homes. See Exhibit 4: Conceptual Home Elevations for reference. Two (2) of the homes are fully ADA accessible. Six (6) of the homes are designed to accommodate families, and the remainder would be individual units. The small homes are fully functional with full kitchens and bathrooms. The small home community is supported by a “Village Center,” a commercial building that provides offices for the support staff, community meeting space, mailbox locations, counseling/training rooms and other necessary amenities. Attention to the building façade includes the placement of building materials and finishes such as: plank lap siding, smooth face CMU, and metal, with an emphasis on fine-grained scale and texture. See Exhibit 5: Conceptual Office Elevations for reference. The community will include options for families along with outdoor spaces which could include a pool or water feature for the residents, outdoor gazebo, and plenty of community/interpersonal gathering opportunities. The maximum density is 20 dwelling units per acre, which will provide flexibility based on the potential for additional units in future. The maximum building height proposed is 1-stories or 24 feet. VCP will provide one (1) parking space per every 2 units, which will amply serve the needs of the community based on their experience. The VCP Village Center will have 20-30 parking spaces for staff and visitors. As mentioned, the intent is to request a Minor General Plan Amendment from the current designation to 8.65 gross acres of High Density Residential: 12.0 - 20.0 dwelling units per acres (“HDR-20”) and 1.59 gross acres of Office (“OFC”), and a rezone to a PAD on the Property to accommodate future expansion (i.e., residential density), modified development standards, parking relief, mix of uses (i.e., services), etc. for Veterans. See Exhibit 6: Conceptual Site Plan for reference. Goals & Objectives. The goals and objectives of the Veterans Community Project PAD include: ▪ Activate a vacant, underutilized property with a residential development at an appropriate density adjacent to community services, transit, and major roadways. Page 8 13065.1.5155021.1 ▪ Provide homeless veterans transitional housing that support a variety of individuals and families in need. ▪ Provide amenities, including shade and landscaping that promotes pedestrian/community activity through a more vibrant, comfortable environment. ▪ Encourage architecture and design that create a unique sense of place. ▪ Provide usable active and passive open spaces for its residents. ▪ Increase the economic vitality of the area as well as supporting the surrounding commercial, employers, and community services with a complementary transitional veterans’ homeless residential development. Section 2. Existing Site Conditions The Property is an odd configuration comprised of approximately + 10.25-gross acres of land. The existing mix of land uses include: • The City of Glendale’s Northern Horizon Park north/abutting the property (zoned R1-7). • The City of Glendale’s Brian Anderson Field / Lions Park across 63rd Avenue to the east (zoned Parks and Open Space; POS). • VFW Post 1433 Sandy Coor east/abutting the property (zoned M-1). • Nunez Contracting yard east/abutting the property (zoned M-1). • Grand Avenue (U.S. 60) major street/highway along the property’s western boundary. • There are additional small industrial/commercial uses located across and along 63rd Avenue. • There are residential homes/subdivisions located approximately 600-feet to the east. The Property has direct access to both 67th and Maryland Avenues. The proposed site plan considers the surrounding context and includes specific design measures to address appropriate vehicular and pedestrian access, setbacks, open space/amenities, and building locations as well as integration between the VFW Post 1433 Sandy Coor. We believe the location of the proposed VCP development site plan works well with the existing land uses in the area The site is ideally positioned to capitalize on safe and convenient public transit access. Page 9 13065.1.5155021.1 The proposed VCP transitional housing development is consistent with the existing land use fabric and provides a nice mix of uses as well as fulfilling an important need for the City and larger Veteran’s community. Section 3. Land Use Plan & Conceptual Site Plan The proposed conceptual site plan for the Property provides for a small homes community which will provide approximately 50 “small homes.” Two (2) of the homes are fully ADA accessible. Six (6) of the homes are designed to accommodate families, and the remainder would be individual units. The small homes are fully functional with full kitchens and bathrooms. The small home community is supported by a “Village Center,” a commercial building that provides offices for the support staff, community meeting space, mailbox locations, counseling/training rooms and other necessary amenities. The community will include options for families along with outdoor spaces which could include a pool or water feature for the residents, outdoor gazebo, and plenty of community/interpersonal gathering opportunities. The maximum building height proposed is 1-stories or 24 feet. Based on their experience, VCP will provide one (1) parking space per two (2) units, which will amply serve the needs of the community. The VCP Village Center will have 20-30 parking spaces for staff and visitors. Access to the site will occur off 63rd Avenue, which is proposed to be a gated access drive. Preliminary Details of Proposed Development: Unit Mix –Small Homes • 2 (ADA Accessible at 387 sf) • 6 (Family units at 352 SF) • 42 (Individual units at 270 SF) Community Amenities/Services could include: • Barbeques • Outdoor playgrounds • Outdoor dining ramadas • Pool or water feature for the residents • Gazebo • Walking Trails • Dog park Page 10 13065.1.5155021.1 This village will consist of 50 small homes. Each home is fully functional to support independent living with a full kitchen and restroom along with sleeping area. The development consists of: • (42) individual units designed to sleep one individual; 270 SF. • (6) family units designed to accommodate up to five individuals; 352 SF. • (2) ADA units; 387 SF The architectural materials are appropriate to the Arizona climate, and the massing of the small homes includes both flat and pitched roof designs to add variety to the neighborhood. The primary material is stucco with reflective metal sloped roofs and white membrane flat roofs. Each unit also has a private, shaded porch, and units are clustered into small enclaves to promote sense of community. The layout of the small homes are trauma informed, meaning they have taken into consideration needs of veterans who often suffer from PTSD and hyper-vigilance. Access points and windows are intentionally placed to avoid site line conflicts. Houses are stand- alone to avoid unsettling noises through walls of adjacent units to provide the best privacy and security to veterans. The colors used on the exterior of the units are representative of the five branches of the military. Colors and building styles are scattered throughout the development to provide character and variety. An aside: the organization has learned from other villages that most veterans needing full ADA amenities are better served through the VA organization or other more suitable organizations so the demand in these villages for full ADA units is limited. The Village Center provides a central location for support services for village residents. The Village Center has a gathering area for events or trainings, mailboxes for all residents, small group meeting or counseling rooms, and office space for staff. A typically village staff at full occupancy consists of an Executive Director, Development Director, Volunteer Manager, five Case Managers and a Case Management Director, Operations Director and an After-Care Case Manager support. The Village Center provides wrap-around support to village residents. Architecturally, the Village Center is designed to complement the village in both scale and architectural finishes. In this case, the Village Center will have light-colored stucco and copper-color metal siding/roofing panels. Gabled portions of the front façade mimic small homes and help to reduce the scale of the commercial/office building to fit the balance of the site and neighborhood where they are located. The front door for visitors is oriented toward the street (63rd Ave.) and parking while the primary entrance for village residents is located on the opposite side facing the village. Since most traffic to the Village Center will come from the village-side entrance (typically on the back of the building), we consider this the primary entrance. Page 11 13065.1.5155021.1 Exact amenities for each village vary depending on the climate and needs of residents. Typically, these include walking trails, shaded outdoor spaces/pavilions, community gathering space and, in this case, an outdoor water feature (pool or other type of water amenity). Exact needs are yet to be determined but ample space has been provided on-site for these features. Often, landscaping is provided to meet city requirements, and over time is augmented through donations and support from community resources. Where appropriate, we have also provided community garden space in some villages. Pedestrian pathways are provided throughout the site with multiple pedestrian corridors established to the public streetscape and adjacent properties. Guest parking is provided throughout with gated access for the residents, employees, and their guests. The traffic impact for the proposed development compliments and will not derogate from the surrounding traffic patterns and will have minimal impact on the surrounding urban area/street network. With regards to the parking, the objective is to establish parking consistent with the use/user which is transitional housing for homeless veterans. The Veterans Community Project will coordinate with service providers to provide options for their residents’ transit needs. Moreover, the VCP team have built similar communities with parking standards to match with no impact. Section 4. PAD Findings 1) Encourage creative and effective use of land and circulation systems to accommodate changes in land development technologies. The proposed development is a creative and effective use of this odd-shaped vacant, infill land for the expansion of housing and services to support homeless veterans. Moreover, providing a transitional housing option for veterans located near public transit (i.e., buses), can help mobility for residents and increased ridership for transit. 2) Encourage residential development to provide a mixture of housing types and designs. This provision of the PAD recognizes the need for incorporating a unique residential type (i.e., small homes community) in the area and addressing the needs of homeless veterans, which brings energy to areas of the City in need of investment. The PAD zoning standards meet many of the R-4 development standards (see below) with only a few slight modifications to fit within this use/urban/odd-shaped infill Property. 3) Encourage innovative development or redevelopment concepts for all land use types to provide a greater variety and intensity of uses. A primary purpose of the Veterans Community Project PAD is to establish a foundation to encourage, assure and maintain a quality small homes community with support accessory uses for their residents. Moreover, transitional housing for homeless Page 12 13065.1.5155021.1 veterans (i.e., small homes) is an important attribute for the City and community at large. 4) Provide a process which relates the urban design and scale of project to the unique characteristics of the site. The proposed small homes community will meet the intent of the City’s Design and Development requirements in providing a high standard of building design through quality/sustainable materials in an overall sustainable development. The proposed development on the Property will require Design Review to ensure quality and consistent development theme/integration. The semi-urban nature and adjacency to the existing Grand Avenue (U.S. 60 Freeway) is ideally suited for more density of use, but not as intense as the underlying industrial zoning. Most importantly, the activation of this Property with a residential use will attract new investment and improve safety in the area, and ultimately stabilize the area’s tax base for the City of Glendale. 5) Provide a process which relates the urban design and scale of project to the unique characteristics of the site. The proposed development on the remaining vacant, infill site will be supported by adequate utilities, transportation, and drainage. The surrounding area is largely developed with existing utilities and infrastructure already in place. The abutting streets are more than adequate to accommodate the future traffic with easy. 6) Encourage development that is consistent with the policies and the guidelines established in any specific plan and the General Plan. The proposed Veterans Community Project PAD is consistent by promoting housing options and managing social issues, especially homelessness, enhancing the City of Glendale. Section 5. Permitted Uses Permitted Uses, Conditional Uses, and Prohibited Uses shall comply or as modified by this PAD document with the standards listed in Table 2.400-1: Table of Allowed Uses for Multiple Residence Districts for the R-4 zoning district under Section 35.2.402 Multiple Residence Districts Use Standards and Table 2.600-1: Table of Allowed Uses for Professional Office Districts for the G-O zoning district under 35.2.602 Professional Office Use Standards to support the VCP residents.

A minor amendment to the PAD shall be reviewed by all affected City departments and agencies and shall be approved administratively. Page 16 13065.1.5155021.1 Section 7. Architectural Character As previously stated, the small homes will have unique/interesting building façades that includes the placement of building materials and finishes such as: plank lap siding, smooth face CMU, and metal, with an emphasis on fine-grained scale and texture. Outdoor patios or porches will be utilized to create a neighborhood environment by encouraging community engagement/camaraderie. See Exhibit 4: Conceptual Home Elevations for reference. SMALL HOMES - CONCEPTUAL BUILDING ELEVATIONS The overall small homes and Village Center architectural vernacular will be designed to function as a cohesive/unique development and will integrate internally in both scale and architectural finishes. The Village Center will have light-colored stucco and copper-color metal siding/roofing panels. Gabled portions of the front façade mimic small homes and help to reduce the scale of the commercial/office building to fit the balance of the site and neighborhood where they are located. The front door for visitors is oriented toward the street (63rd Ave.) and parking while the primary entrance for village residents is located on the opposite side facing the Village. Since most traffic to the Village Center will come from the village-side entrance (typically on the back of the building), we consider this the primary entrance. See Exhibit 5: Conceptual Office Elevations for reference. Village Center - Conceptual Building Elevation Page 17 13065.1.5155021.1 Section 8. Signs Standards Section 35.4.300 Signage of the Unified Development Code will regulate the applicable signage criteria/review, specifically utilizing the C-2 Zoning District’s signage regulations for this PAD. Section 9. Landscaping Requirements The landscaping within the VCP will be in conformance with the Unified Development Code provisions for landscaping, including a variation of planting materials/sizes/quantities along the street frontages and in parking areas. A low water use plant palette will reflect a lush desert feeling appropriate for the proposed development. The use of turf will be provided as needed for areas of activity and where appropriate. The landscape design will provide ample shade, variation in color, and variation in texture/form. Section 35.4.100 Landscaping of the Unified Development Code for Multiple Residence Districts will regulate the applicable landscaping criteria/review. See Exhibit 8: Landscaping for Multiple Residence Districts for reference. Section 10. Vehicular Circulation, Parking & Connectivity Vehicular Circulation & Parking. Primary vehicular access to is via 63rd Avenue. Upon arrival, residents and guests will be greeted by a landscaped entryway with the main “Village Center” building providing offices for the support staff, community meeting space, mailbox locations, counseling/training rooms and other necessary amenities. The entryway will be gated past the “Village Center” into the private residences. Vehicular access outside the site is ideal with easy access going north/south and east and Grand Avenue to traverse further north/south and west. VCP currently operates in Kansas City and St. Louis, MO, Longmont, CO, and Sioux Falls, SD, and is currently developing an additional planned community in Milwaukee, WI. In these Villages, most residents begin their stay without a personal vehicle due to economic restraints. Some residents will acquire a vehicle while residing in the community. VCP has monitored their existing locations over time, and it is a rare occurrence for all veterans to possess a personal vehicle within VCP’s Villages. With that said, the proposed site plan for this project shows a total of 67 parking spaces, with 30 spaces directly adjacent to the small homes and 37 spaces available at the Village Center parking lot. Twenty of the 37 spaces at the Village Center are reserved for residents of the community. The Village Center parking lot provides an additional 17 spaces for staff members, volunteers, and guests. There are 4 ADA spaces, 2 accommodating the designated ADA homes and the remaining 2 ADA spaces available at the Village Center parking lot. Page 18 13065.1.5155021.1 The resident parking is at 1 parking space per unit. This ratio conforms with VCP’s historic experience. The proposed parking ratio of 1:500 SF for office-use is above the customary requirements of most municipalities, which often enforce parking ratios at 1:1000 SF for office-use. The VCP team has presented twice the amount of adequate office parking necessary to ensure the Village Center is accessible for visitors and additional onsite staff. The parking allocations proposed for the project site are intended for the specific use of the VCP, as well as its context within the surrounding area. The site plan presented also refrains from using excessive asphalt and hardscape to deter the heat island effect, as well as reducing continuous maintenance for residents and members of the organization. In addition, no parking signs may be installed along 63rd Avenue abutting the project to make sure no parking occurs along their street frontage. In conclusion the vehicular design and parking layout will complement the existing infrastructure and supply more than sufficient parking spaces for the life of the project. Section 11.

Phasing The community will be developed in one (1) phase for the proposed 50-small homes and support building. Section 13. Conclusion The City of Glendale has invested significant infrastructure resources towards encouraging and providing sustainable, stable, and long-term housing, and the Veterans Community Project assisting homeless veterans to transition to permanent housing fits well towards that endeavor. The proposed Veterans Community Project is an infill development that will provide a unique residential option/living opportunity offered within this immediate area. Moreover, this proposed development will be catalyst for additional sustainable and appropriate development/redevelopment in the immediate area in whatever form that may take (i.e., residential, retail, office, etc.). Veterans Community Project is excited to bring these small homes community development to this vacant, urban infill site. Removing a vacant/odd-shaped property (i.e., which is also an attractive nuisance) and replacing it with needed transitional housing will help transform the area and provide desired accessible homes to veterans. In summation, this proposed development will fulfill both the needs of the City of Glendale and the immediate area in many ways (i.e., new development, new housing type, reinvestment, quality, increased revenue, and greater security) as well as design.

Wireless Communication Facility (Including Tower and Supporting Facilities) The intent of the following development standards is to improve the design and placement of new wireless communication facilities (WCF) in order to reduce the impact on the visual and aesthetic character of the community. The standards are designed to: Encourage the use of concealment technology; minimize the construction of new towers through the promotion of co-location on existing WCF, buildings or other structures; ensure continuous maintenance of WCF and enforce the timely removal of any unused or outdated facilities; and regulate the use of temporary WCF. A WCF may be concealed, disguised or visible. As described below, each type of WCF has specific development standards, approval processes, and design guidelines based upon whether they are new structures or being co-located. 1. Concealed Wireless Communication Facilities. Concealed WCF used by a governmental agency for public safety purposes may be permitted in all zoning districts and are not regulated by these provisions of the UDC. Other Concealed WCF are permitted in all zoning districts, subject to the following standards: a) Concealed WCF on non-residentially zoned properties adjacent to residentially zoned properties: i. Concealed WCF are permitted on non-residentially zoned property that is adjacent to residentially zoned properties, except if a concealed WCF does not uphold the following criteria: 1. The consistency of the request with the context of the surrounding area; 2. The design of a disguised WCF must be compatible with the architectural character and natural features of the site or development; 3. The placement of the WCF on the lot or parcel and its potential effect on expanding existing or developing future land uses; 4. The measures taken to reduce the visual impact, bulk or clutter on the surrounding area; 5. The cumulative effect that existing WCF in the vicinity of the site may have on the request; 6. Consistency with the design standards. ii. The following information shall be submitted upon application for a conditional use permit for a WCF: 1. A site plan identifying the proposed location and height of the WCF; Veterans Community Project | Allowed Uses 2. Elevations of the proposed WCF including details on the monopole or structure and attached antennae and equipment, accessory buildings, ground-mounted cabinets and equipment, and screening structures or materials; 3. A statement on the capacity of the proposed WCF to allow collocation with other wireless communication providers; and 4. The location and height of all WCF located within a one-half (1/2) mile radius of the site. b) Concealed WCF on residentially zoned properties: i. Public/semi-public spaces—Concealed WCF are permitted on residentially zoned property that is designated or used for public or semi-public spaces such as, but not limited to, schools, churches, golf courses, parks or government facilities. If a concealed WCF does not uphold the following criteria: 1. The consistency of the request with the context of the surrounding area; 2. The design of a disguised WCF must be compatible with the architectural character and natural features of the site or development; 3. The placement of the WCF on the lot or parcel and its potential effect on expanding existing or developing future land uses; 4. The measures taken to reduce the visual impact, bulk or clutter on the surrounding area; 5. The cumulative effect that existing WCF in the vicinity of the site may have on the request; 6. Consistency with the design standards. ii. The following information shall be submitted upon application for a conditional use permit for a WCF: 1. A site plan identifying the proposed location and height of the WCF; 2.
