November 19, 2025 Z240019 Page 1 of 7 Report to the Board of Supervisors Prepared by the Maricopa County Planning and Development Department Board Hearing Date: November 19, 2025 (Continued from December 11, 2024) Case #/Title: Z240019 – Sonoran Landings Supervisor District: 1 Applicant/Owners: Owen Metz, Chandler Acquisition I, LLC c/o Dominium Inc Request: Zone change from Rural-43 to IND-2 IUPD Site Location: Generally located at the NWC of Ocotillo Rd. & Pinelake Wy. in the Chandler area Site Size: Approximately 23.4 acres County Island Status: Yes (City of Chandler) Additional Comments: The applicant has modified the request for this zone change with overlay from Rural-43 to IND-2 IUPD without a precise plan of development. The previous proposal to allow multi-family housing and a distribution warehouse received significant public opposition and objection from the City of Chandler. The applicant modified the project to prohibit multi-family residential from the proposed IND-2 IUPD zoning district. The City of Chandler approved a pre-annexation development agreement (Resolution No. 5939) on 9/29/2025. The modified project’s IUPD will deviate the base IND-2 zoning district’s maximum building height at 54’ (increased from 40’). It will customize site screening with a 3’ wall in combination with landscaping along Pinelake Way. The IUPD will limit the entitled IND-2 uses. Residential uses are prohibited. There are no outstanding concerns from reviewing agencies. The site is in the City of Chandler’s municipal planning area designated for employment uses in the city’s plans. Although the original proposal was subject of significant public opposition. No public comment has been received for the modified proposal. Staff is not aware of any remaining public opposition. The staff report packet presented to the 11/21/24 Commission is not attached (but is available for download via Agenda Center). It is November 19, 2025 Z240019 Page 2 of 7 no longer applicable.

November 19, 2025 Z240019 Page 4 of 7 l. The granting of this change in use of the property has been at the request of the applicant, with the consent of the landowner. The granting of this approval allows the property to enjoy uses in excess of those permitted by the zoning existing on the date of application, subject to conditions. In the event of the failure to comply with any condition, the property shall revert to the zoning that existed on the date of application. It is, therefore, stipulated and agreed that either revocation due to the failure to comply with any conditions, does not reduce any rights that existed on the date of application to use, divide, sell, or possess the property and that there would be no diminution in value of the property from the value it held on the date of application due to such revocation of the zone change. The zone change enhances the value of the property above its value as of the date the zone change is granted and reverting to the prior zoning results in the same value of the property as if the zone change had never been granted.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE OF REQUEST Chandler Leased Housing Associates I, LP, a Dominium-related company1 (“Dominium”), requests a Zone Change from RU-43 to IND-2 (Light Industrial) with an Industrial Unit Plan of Development Overlay (“IUPD”) on approximately 24.59 gross (22.34 net) acres located at the northwest corner of Ocotillo Road and Pinelake Way, APNs 303-41-020M and 303-41-021L2 (the “Site”). See Exhibit 1, Context Aerial Map. Dominium requests this Site be rezoned to allow appropriate uses on the Site, as modified and restricted through the IUPD Overlay. A Plan of Development is not proposed at this time. II. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSAL Dominium requests a rezoning from RU-43 to IND-2 with an IUPD to allow the Site to be developed with industrial uses. See Exhibit 2, Zoning Exhibit. It is intended that the property improvements comply with the IND-2 Development Standards and Regulations except as otherwise modified by this IUPD. The Site is currently underutilized. The highest and best use of the Site given its location at a mid-block location, adjacent to SRP transmission power lines, a railroad, and the back of a retail commercial development are the uses allowed by the IND-2 Zoning District as modified by this IUPD. Dominium seeks to develop this Site consistent with Maricopa County’s Comprehensive Plan, the City of Chandler’s (the “City”) General Plan, and the City’s Airpark Area Plan while providing jobs through the future industrial development. See Appendix C, D, and E. III. RELATIONSHIP TO SURROUNDING PROPERTIES The Site is a County Island within the City’s municipal planning area and is located approximately 2.2 miles south of the 202 Freeway. It is designated as “Employment” under the City’s General Plan and is located within the City’s Airpark Area Plan. Per Chandler’s General Plan, the “Employment” designation can allow industrial/business parks, corporate offices, manufacturing, and warehouse distribution. See also, Appendix D. The City’s Airpark Area Plan designates the Site as “Industrial”, which allows general industry such as manufacturing, distribution, warehousing, wholesaling, and utility uses. The Site is bordered on the south by Ocotillo Road, on the west by Union Pacific railroad tracks, on the north by a container storage yard and landscape facility within unincorporated Maricopa County, and on the east by vacant agricultural property and a Chandler Unified School District bus and storage facility. Additional uses surrounding the Site include multi-family developments south of Ocotillo Road (Lennar at Pinelake Inspiration) and retail commercial west of the railroad tracks (Paseo Linda). A quality industrial development will be consistent and compatible with nearby existing and future employment. See Exhibit 1, Context Aerial Map. 1 Chandler Leased Housing Associates I, LP is a Dominium Apartments related entity that is the owner of the property included in this Rezoning Application. 2 The Site presently consists of two parcels. The parcels will remain separate and may be combined by a future buyer(s). 4 IV. LOCATION AND ACCESSIBILITY Access points will be reviewed and approved at the Plan of Development stage. V. CIRCULATION SYSTEM The onsite circulation and parking layouts will be designed to be safe and convenient for customers and employees and will be further reviewed at the Plan of Development approval stage. VI. DEVELOPMENT SCHEDULE (PHASING) The Site may be developed in one or multiple phases. Phasing will be reviewed and approved at the Plan of Development stage. VII. COMMUNITY FACILITIES AND SERVICES The Paseo Vista Recreation Area and Bark Park are within 2/3 of a mile of the Site (to the east). The Paseo Vista Recreation Area is maintained by the City. Additionally, the Paseo Trail system, adjacent to the Paseo Vista Recreation Area, provides access along the Consolidated Canal, ultimately connecting to the Crosscut Canal that connects the City of Chandler, Town of Gilbert, and City of Mesa. The Site is within the Chandler Unified School District. The industrial development will not have any impacts on the area schools. VIII. PUBLIC UTILITIES AND SERVICES Water: City of Chandler (pending)* Sewer: City of Chandler (pending)* Police: City of Chandler/Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office Fire: City of Chandler (pending)* Refuse: Private Refuse Company * A utility service agreement has not yet been finalized with the City; however, a Pre-Annexation Development Agreement is currently underway with the City of Chandler that provides for municipal water and sewer service to the Site. The Site is located within the City’s designated water and sewer service areas. Prior to any development, the Plan of Development process will require establishment of a utility service provider to ensure adequate water and sewer connections. 5 IX. ANNEXATION The Site is anticipated to be annexed into the City of Chandler. As noted above, the applicant is working with the City on a Pre-Annexation Development Agreement. X. SITE STANDARDS Development on Site will comply with the below standards. The conceptual layout shown in this submittal is for illustrative purposes only. The Site may contain one or multiple buildings— that will all comply with the standards of this IUPD. A. Development Standards The IND-2 IUPD Development Standards Comparison Table is provided below, with changes noted in bold: Regulation Base Zoning District Regulations (IND-2) Proposed Zoning Regulations (IND-2 IUPD) Max Height 40’ 54’ Min. Front Yard 20’ 20’ Min. Side Yard 5’ 5’ Min Street-Side Yard 10’ (Local Street) 10’ (Local Street) Min. Lot Area 6,000 sq. ft. 6,000 sq. ft. Min. Lot Width 60’ 60’ Max. Lot Coverage 60% 60% Parking Spaces Required 1.0 Per 600 SF Floor Area 1.0 Per 600 SF Floor Area Screening 6’ Solid Wall 6’ Solid Wall (3’ at Street Fronts) These minor modifications indicated above will allow this underutilized Site to be developed into a quality industrial development that will benefit the area. The increase in maximum height (building up rather than out) will allow for an efficient site layout with ample, attractive landscaping on the Site and will allow adequate internal “clear height” often needed for modern industrial buildings. The increase in height will not negatively affect surrounding properties given it is surrounded by the railroad, commercial, and agricultural uses. The building has conceptually been located central to the Industrial Site, this further mitigates any impact the increased height may have on surrounding uses. The nearest residential uses are across Ocotillo Road and will not be negatively impacted by this increase. Regarding the modification to the screening requirement, a 3-foot wall at street fronts (Pinelake Way) will create a more attractive street frontage than a 6-foot wall. 6 B. Uses Only the uses listed in “Appendix A” shall be permitted, all other uses are expressly prohibited. The uses listed in “Appendix B” are expressly prohibited. It is the intent of this IUPD to prohibit residential uses on the entire Site. XI. CONCLUSION This Zone Change Application establishes uses and other criteria that are appropriate for the Site and compatible with the surrounding area and is supported by the Maricopa County Comprehensive Plan, the City’s General Plan “Employment” designation, and the City’s Airpark Area Plan “Industrial” designation. Dominium’s proposed development not only fulfills the vision of the Site, but also brings significant benefits to the Airpark Employment and Business District Area. By introducing this development, new job opportunities will be created, contributing to the economic growth of the area. The proposed development presents an ideal solution for the underutilized land, maximizing its potential and transforming it into a valuable asset for the community. We request the County’s Approval. 7 Appendix A: Permitted Uses • Aircraft firms including sales, service and rental. • Bakeries, wholesale. • Bottling plants or breweries. • Cleaning plants, including carpets and dyeing. • Construction equipment, including sales, service, rental and storage. • Dairy products, processing of. • Laboratories, experimental, photo or motion picture, research or testing. • Manufacturing, compounding, assembling, processing, packaging or treatment of products such as candy, drugs, perfumes, pharmaceuticals, perfumed toilet soaps, toiletries, but not including the refining or rendering of fats and oils. • Manufacturing, compounding, assembling or treatment of articles or merchandise from the following previously prepared materials: bone, cellophane, canvas, cloth, cork, feathers, felt, fiber, fur, glass, hair, leather, paper, plastics, precious or semi- precious metals or stones, light sheet metal, shell, textiles, tobacco, wire, yarns, wood not involving planing mills, and paint not employing a boiling process. • Manufacturing or assembly of electrical appliances, electronic instruments and devices, optical goods, precision instruments, radios and phonographs, including the manufacture of small parts only, such as coils, condensers, transformers and crystal holders. • Manufacture of pottery and figurines or other similar ceramic products using only previously pulverized clay. • Packing houses, fruit or vegetable not including processing. • Training centers, industrial. • Third-party parcel distribution centers up to a maximum of 400,000 square feet in the aggregate, including single parcel distribution buildings up to a maximum of 200,000 square feet each. • Art needlework, handweaving and tapestries. • Books, hand binding and tooling. • Compounding of cosmetics and pharmaceutical products. • Jewelry, manufacture from precious metals and minerals. • Manufacture and assembly of clay, leather, metal and glass products of a handicraft nature. • Manufacture and assembly of medical, dental and drafting instruments. • Manufacture and assembly of optical goods and equipment, watches, clocks and other similar precision instruments. • Manufacture and assembly of electrical or electronic apparatus, musical instruments, games and toys. • Motion picture producing. • Offices. • Radio and television broadcasting stations and studios, but not including transmitter towers and transmitter stations. • Any other office, laboratory, manufacturing and assembling uses similar to those uses enumerated herein which do not create any danger to the public health, safety and general welfare in surrounding areas and which do not create any offensive noise, vibration, smoke, dust, odor, heat or glare and which, by reason of high value in 8 relation to size and weight of merchandise received and shipped create very little truck traffic. • Temporary construction administration offices/yard complex – which may include a security office or residence for a security guard provided that the following conditions are met: a.
