History 
Sunburst Farms was formerly an A‐1 (Agricultural) zoning district. In 2007, the Planning Commission 
initiated a rezone of portions of Sunburst Farms to SR‐30 PRD to “facilitate improvements to individual 
properties without having to file for a variance.” Many of these properties constructed accessory 
buildings over the ensuing years that were allowed to reach 20 feet in height as allowed by the 1993 
Zoning Ordinance. However, since the introduction of the UDC in January 2024, accessory structure 
requirements reduced the maximum height to 16 feet in SR districts. This change is anathema to the 
intent of the initial rezone by causing a number of residents to file variances for building height for their 
Recreational Vehicles and farming equipment. 
Project Description 
The Edwards’ are applying for a variance to reduce accessory structure setbacks and increase structure 
height within the City of Glendale. The property is located at 5204 W. Waltann Ln. in the Sahuaro District. 
The applicant requests a variance to increase the maximum building height from 16’ to 20’ and reduce 
the required setbacks from 29’ to 10’ in order to erect a dual‐purpose structure on their lot. The structure 
will serve as an animal shade structure/covered parking area for trailers and large equipment.  
The UDC currently caps  the  height of  accessory  structures at 16’ for  SR‐30  properties. This height  is 
insufficient  to  accommodate  the  large  equipment  the  applicant  intends  to  store.  They  request  an 
allowance to build up to a 20’ height to accommodate the equipment and trailers. 
In addition, the current 29’ setback requirements would force the applicant to build in the center of a 
pasture and therefore lose a significant portion of grass which is a food source for their sheep. They 
propose erecting the shade structure in the northwest corner of the property allowing 10’ setbacks on all 
sides.  
These two requests will allow them to build within an area that is not used as pasture and provides direct 
access to the existing bridle path for trailers and equipment. 
Notification 
Per the requirements of a Variance, public notification in the form of a letter was sent to all homes, 
businesses and HOAs located within a 300 foot radius of the property. A copy of this letter and Affidavit 
of Mailing can be found as Appendix A, the Notification Map in Appendix B, and List of Property Owners 
in Appendix C. The Applicant has also posted the site, notice of public hearing postcards were mailed 
September 13, 2024 and notice was published in the Arizona Republic on September 19, 2024. A copy of 
the Affidavit of Posting will be attached as Appendix D. 
Affected Residents and/or Businesses 
As noted above, many properties within this 135 lot subdivision have structures of a similar size and 
height. The neighbors directly east have mature vegetation that will screen the view of the structure, 
while the neighbors to the north already have structures of their own that block the view of the 
proposed structure.

SUBJECT: Edwards’ Residence Detached Shade Structure VAR24-09(SR24-0579) 
Dear Neighbor: 
This leter is to inform you that we are applying for a variance to reduce accessory structure 
setbacks and increase structure height within the City of Glendale. The property is located at 5204 
W. Waltann Ln. in the Sahuaro District. 
We are requesƟng a variance to reduce the required setbacks from 21’ to 10’ and increase the 
maximum building height from 16’ to 20’ in order to erect a dual-purpose structure on our lot. 
The structure will serve as an animal shade structure/covered parking area for trailers and large 
equipment.  
Per the Unified Development Code (UDC) SecƟon 35.3.204.H, we are allowed to maintain 
livestock at a rate of one (1) animal per ten thousand (10,000) square feet of open space. The 
current 21’ setback requirements would force us to build in the center of our pasture and 
therefore lose a significant porƟon of grass which is a food source for our sheep. We propose 
erecƟng the shade structure in the northeast corner of our property allowing 10’ setbacks on all 
sides.  
In addiƟon, the UDC currently caps the height of accessory structures at 16’. This height is 
insufficient to accommodate the large equipment we intend to store. We request an allowance 
to build up to a 20’ height to accommodate the equipment and trailers.  
These two requests will allow us to build within an area that is not used as pasture and provides 
direct access to the exisƟng bridle path for our trailers and equipment. 
We have included a site plan with this leter for your review. You may write, email or call using 
the contact informaƟon above or by contacƟng Amy Schwenner, Planner for the City of Glendale 
at (623) 930-2805 or aschwenner@glendaleaz.com. Comments must be received by August 28, 
2024.
