BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSED 
PROJECT 
 
The goal is to develop a single-family affordable housing opportunity on the vacant land located at: 
 
7119 N 66th DR. GLENDALE, AZ 85301 
 
The current zoning ordinance (R-3) and the size of the lot makes it impossible to have enough room to 
build on the lot. We would like to change the current 20 Ft setback to 5 Ft on the North side, so it can be 
possible to build a house.

BRIEF OVERVIEW OF THE PROPOSED 
CITIZEN PARTICIPATION PLAN 
 
After several revisions we submitted our final Citizen Participation Plan on December 17th, 2020 which 
includes:  
 
Approved notification letter (Exhibit A) 
 
Site plan with the 300ft Notification area map that was provided by Planning (Exhibit B) 
 
Neighborhood notification list with a total of 25 owners that correspond to the assigned 
notification area with their respective mailing addresses. (Exhibit C) 
 
Additional notification list with a total of 4 citizens provided by Planning. (Exhibit D)  
 
Citywide & Ocotillo interested parties notification list with a total of 33 parties provided by 
Planning (Exhibit E) 
 
After our citizen participation plan was approved, we proceeded to send the approved notification letter to 
all the owners named in our neighborhood and interested parties notification list as well as the additional 
notification list on December 23rd, 2020. Having a grand total of 62 letters sent. 
 
The time allowed for Citizen input was from December 23rd, 2020 to January 11th, 2021. 
 
On December 30th, a property owner located at 7144 N 66th Drive Glendale, AZ 85301 contacted our 
planner regarding our Variance Notification Letter, that same day we receive the contact information: 
 
 
Jason Townsend (562) 882-7040 
 
The first time we called him on December 30th, he did not answer, so we left a voicemail. Late in the 
afternoon we were able to speak to Jason Townsend, he was calling for his 76 year old mother that for 
some reason thought that we were applying to take 5 feet away from her property. Her property is 
actually a few houses down across the street. We explained what our project consisted of and clarified 
that we do not intend to remove any piece of their property. 
 
During the allowed period, we did not receive any other letter, call, email, or any notification from the 
planning department, related to our Citizen Participation Plan.  
 
On January 11th, 2021 we receive in our email the return of two letters that were unable to forward 
because the addresses were insufficient, these two letters correspond to:  
 
 
DIANA FIGUEROA, SENIOR SECRETARY  
PLANNING  
8550 W GLENDALE AVE. SUITE 212 
GLENDALE, AZ 85301 
 
 
GLENDALE CITY COUNCIL OFFICE  
COUNCIL MEMBER JAIME ALDAMA  
8550 W GLENDALE AVENUE  
GLENDALE, AZ 85301 
 
Both members of the additional notification list provided by planning. (See exhibit F) 
We re-sent these letters on January 26th, 2021 with the right address and gave them more time to provide 
any comments, however we did not receive any at the time of deadline. (See exhibit G) 
 
Without further details to add, we conclude our final report.
