Case #/Title:
Z2021034 – Luxury Storage RV & Boat
Supervisor District:
3
Applicant/Owner:
Shaine Alleman, Tiffany & Bosco, P.A. / Shawn Schwanbeck,
Luxury Storage RV & Boat, LLC
Request:
Special Use Permit (SUP) for commercial storage of RVs, boats
and vehicles in the Rural-43 zoning district
Site Location:
600’ east of the SEC of Carefree Hwy. and 12th St. in the Desert
Hills area
Site Size:
Approximately 8.7 acres
County Island Status:
Yes (City of Phoenix)
Additional
Comments:
The applicant is requesting a Special Use Permit (SUP) for a
commercial storage facility for the storage of RVs, boats and
vehicles on an approximately 8.7-acre site in the Rural-43
zoning district. The site is located 600-feet east of the
southeast corner of Carefree Hwy. and 12th St. in the Desert
Hills area. There are no outstanding concerns from reviewing
agencies.
The site is within the Municipal Planning Area of Phoenix. The
General Plan for Phoenix designates the site as Large Lot
Residential with densities of one to two residences per acre.
Although the proposal appears to conflict with this plan, The
City was provided the opportunity to review and comment
on this proposal. However, to date Phoenix has not provided
comment on this SUP request.
The site is within a corridor designated in the Daisy Mountain/
New River Area Plan for commercial uses and in the Carefree
Hwy. Scenic Corridor. Although, the proposed outdoor
storage uses is not an encouraged use within the commercial
corridor and specifically states mini-storage, excluding
outdoor storage, the proposed use would be appropriate,
since the outdoor storage will be screened from view of the
Highway by landscaping in front of screening walls and

vehicles will placed under canopies. Moreover, the
architectural design of the facility with an office with parking
along the street has an appearance of a mini-storage facility
and is not a design typical of an outdoor storage facility with
large open areas with very little screening. Staff are in support
of this SUP for commercial storage on the 8.7-acre property.
Prior to the 3/10/22 Planning & Zoning Commission Hearing
staff received nine support letters and five opposition letters
for this proposal. During the 3/10/22 Planning & Zoning
Commission Hearing one individual spoke in support and two
individuals spoke in opposition of the proposal. After the
3/10/22 Planning & Zoning Commission Hearing, staff
received two appeals to their approval recommendation.
The general feeling among the opposition members is that
this commercial SUP will be incompatible to the surrounding
rural residential land uses, an increase of area traffic, and
possible
negative
environmental
impacts
from
this
development (e.g. lighting, flooding, or pollution issues).
Staff has calculated the support and opposition received,
and notes that a Super Majority Vote has been triggered. The
trigger is when 20% or more of property owners within a 300’
radius of the subject site, by number and area register
opposition to the case. The opposition received accounts for
five property owners with an area of 852,591 sq. ft.
The calculations for Luxury Storage are as follows:
37% opposed parcel acreage within 300’ buffer
38% opposed parcel numbers within 300’ buffer

q.
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, and at the time of expiration of the Special Use Permit, 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, or the expiration of the Special Use Permit, 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
or expiration of the Special Use Permit. The Special Use Permit enhances the value
of the property above its value as of the date the Special Use Permit is granted
and reverting to the prior zoning results in the same value of the property as if the
Special Use Permit had never been granted.

Project Summary:
1.
The applicant is requesting a Special Use Permit (SUP) for a commercial storage facility
for the storage of RVs, boats and vehicles on an approximately 8.7-acre site in the Rural-
43 zoning district. The site is located 600-feet east of the southeast corner of Carefree
Hwy. and 12th St. in the Desert Hills area. The facility will consist of one office building, eight
parking shade canopies (with a total of 254 storage spaces) and one RV wash bay. The
site will be enclosed with eight-foot-tall solid walls with one entry gate and one
emergency gate adjacent to Carefree Hwy. Hours of operation will be from 6 a.m. to 9
p.m. daily with 24-hour access for customers with access codes and the site will have a
total of three employees.
2.
On November 24, 2020, the applicant first met with staff to discuss this proposal. During
the meeting, staff recommended the applicant apply for a SUP for commercial storage
(PA2020167). After the formal SUP submittal, the applicant met with staff for a second
time in the Technical Advisory Committee Meeting on April 20, 2021, to discuss staff’s first
review of this request.
3.
The site is located within the Rural-43 zoning district and the Carefree Hwy. Scenic Corridor
(CHSC). The applicant is requesting to vary the following Rural-43 development standards
and CHSC design guidelines:
Increase the maximum lot coverage from 25% to 50%;
Reduce the required rear yard from 40-feet to 15-feet;
Reduce the required interior side yards from 30-feet to 15-feet;
Eliminate the CHSC design guideline’s average 100-foot deep front yard, keeping
the CHSC suggested 50-foot deep front yard.
4.
The applicant is requesting to vary the three Rural-43 development standards to create
a facility that will reflect the site’s commercial aspect. Even though both the side and
rear yards will be reduced to 15-feet there will be landscaped buffers from the adjacent
rural residential land uses. The applicant and developer will abide with all of the CHSC
design guidelines, except for the suggested average front yard depth, which create a
facility that will blend into the existing environment. All buildings, fences, parking areas
will be setback 50-feet from the Highway. Within this 42,498 square foot street frontage
setback area will be fully landscaped retention areas with typical native vegetation that
will provide an undulated, natural appearance.

Adopted Plans:
8.
Daisy Mountain/New River Area Plan (updated November 20, 2019): The Daisy
Mountain/New River Area Plan designates the site as Rural Densities (0-1 du/ac). The
Rural Densities land use designation promotes low-density single-family residences at or
below one home per acre where the natural environment may determine a home’s
location to avoid disruption of natural washes or steeper slopes. Further, the designation
recognizes that public water and sewer services may not be available or may be limited.
Unlike the majority of residences in the area, this site will have access to a water main
extension agreement with the Town of Cave Creek and access possibly to municipal
sewer in the future, although that is still undetermined. Thus, this proposal would be
appropriate for this area with a small number of employees/visitors and will have access
to public water.
9.
Additionally, the site is located within the CHSC which is designed to preserve the
uniqueness of the area around the Carefree Highway. The CHSC has design guidelines
developed to guide and enhance planning of this unique setting as development
occurs. The intent of these guidelines is to highlight, promote and preserve the Highway’s
scenic characteristics. This proposal will be incorporating the majority of the design
guidelines of the Carefree Highway Scenic Corridor with the following:
All buildings and shade canopies within 50-feet of the edge of the Highway right-of-
way will be at or below 20-feet in height;
Any rooftop/ground mounted mechanical, trash enclosure, or parking area will be
screened from view from the Highway;
All screening materials used will be compatible with the architecture of the main
office of the site and any accessory structure will match the materials/colors of the
main office;
All materials and finish will be neutral, earth tone colors with textures compatible
with the surrounding desert environment;
Outdoor lighting will be low intensity, fully shielded, and directed downward;
The height outdoor lighting poles/standards will have a maximum height of 16-feet
from surface grade of parking/storage areas;
The two driveways on site will be spaced 318-feet apart exceeding the 150-foot
minimum;
All landscaping materials will consist of native indigenous trees, plants, and shrubs
to foster a natural aesthetic of the CHSC.
10.
City of Phoenix General Plan: The General Plan for Phoenix designates the site as Large
Lot Residential with densities of one to two residences per acre. Although the proposal
appears to conflict with this plan, The City was provided the opportunity to review and
Z2021034
Page 6 of 9
comment on this proposal. However, to date Phoenix has not provided comment on this
SUP request.
Public Participation Summary:
11.
The applicant notified property owners within 300-feet of the site and interested parties
in the area. During the applicant’s Citizen Participation process the applicant received
four phone calls from neighbor’s with questions in regards of the proposal. The applicant
responded to each inquiry promptly and was able to provide answers to their questions.
Additionally, the applicant received nine letters of support from the neighbors. The City
of Phoenix was notified about this SUP request but as of the writing of this report staff has
not received any comments regarding this proposed project.
Outstanding Concerns from Reviewing Agencies:
12.
There are no outstanding concerns from reviewing agencies. During the review process
the applicant received support for the proposal by New River/Desert Hills Community
Association Board (NRDH) with the following requests:
Outdoor Lighting must be dark sky compliant;
No median cut on the Highway to prevent any left turning vehicles from the
facility;
The existing wash remain in a natural state;
Limiting the SUP timeframe to 10-years.
The developer will be incorporating all of the suggested requests from NRDH in this
project, except for keeping the existing wash untouched. If the existing wash remains in
its natural state on the site, this will take up over half of the site, making this request
unrealistic for this project. The CHSC Article 6.9, states where possible washes should be
kept in their natural state and in this case this is not possible. The developer has
redesigned the exiting wash by channelization and retention basins approved by
Planning Engineering designed to keep water flow through the site without negatively
affecting the site or surrounding properties. The City of Phoenix was notified on March
30, 2021, and staff have not received any comments regarding this proposed project.
Staff Analysis:
13.
Staff is in support of this SUP for commercial storage on the 8.7-acre property. The
proposed use is appropriate for a site located along Carefree Hwy., just five miles east of
the Interstate-17 and Hwy. 74 interchange. There is an apparent need for covered RV
storage in the area and this use would satisfy that demand. The applicant will follow the
majority of the CHSC design guidelines which will allow the facility to compatible with the
surrounding environment, which will be a condition of approval. Even though the CHSC
average 100-foot deep front yard will be eliminated in this SUP request, by keeping the
front yard along the Highway at a depth of 50-feet will still lessen the impact of the facility
along the Highway’s viewshed. The request to vary the underlying Rural-43 required yards
and lot coverage will be appropriate to develop a commercial storage facility. The
developer will provide landscaped buffers in the required yards adjacent to neighboring
properties and will pave the driving surfaces of the site. The development will also
Z2021034
Page 7 of 9
incorporate the majority of the suggestions of NRDH demonstrating the developer’s
intention to create a facility in harmony with the area.
Recommendation:
14.
Staff recommends the Commission adopt a motion recommending that the Board of
Supervisors approve Z2021034 subject to the following conditions ‘a’ – ‘q’:

Purpose of the Request:
The purpose of this submittal is to request the approval of a Special Use Permit (“SUP”) on a 379,518
S.F., 8.71 acre parcel, generally located south of Carefree Highway and situated between 12th Street and
14th Street and identified by the Maricopa County Assessor as APN 211‐74‐002A (the “Property”). The
Property is currently zoned Rural‐43. [See attached Figures #1 and #2]
Section 1301.1.15 of the Maricopa County Zoning Ordinance (“MCZO”), allows for the approval of a
Special Use Permit for the “commercial storage of….travel trailers, recreation vehicles, (and) boats…on
sites of not less than one acre.” As such, the Applicant is proposing to develop a Recreational Vehicle
and Boat Storage Facility that will consist of 311 space facility will be for storing small and large non‐
commercial vehicles including RVs, Boats, and Automobiles. The only enclosed building will be the
manager’s office.
The Property owner is aware of the discussions and approval in this area surrounding the Daisy
Mountain/New River Subarea Plan and are committed to meeting the applicable development
standards associated with this project. The Applicant has also done productive outreach work prior to
this Application submittal, as described in this narrative, and has positive feedback thus far. We have
also been told by residents in the area that the proposed use is much needed in the area and will
provide a great service to the area residents.
Description of Proposal:
Proposed Use:
The proposed use will be for the commercial storage of recreational vehicles, travel trailers, and boats.
Customers’ vehicles, trailers, and boats will be stored within a secure, shaded parking facility with
perimeter walls and secured access and egress points served by a single driveway from Carefree
Highway. Landscape Improvements, Customer, Employee Parking and Trash/Recycling Enclosure will be
provided.
Business Operations / Hours of Operations:
The facility will be open to customers every day between 6:00 AM and 9:00 PM. Cutomers will use
electronic access control to enter and exit the gates. Each customer will be identified by a coded entry
or exit to the facility.
After dark movements will be made safer by having motion activated lighting. Lighting is planned to be
at a minimum level and will abide by the County’s Outdoor Lighting provisions outlined in Section 1112
of the County’s Zoning Ordinance.
Number of Employees:
No more than three (3) staff personnel will be on the Property at one time, a business manager, plus
one or two employees for peak‐time customer service and part‐time maintenance during the week.

Description / location of buildings:
There will be an office for management and customer targeted sales items, a service area, and the series
of canopies to shade the vehicles located on the premises. RV & Boat Repairs will not be completed on
the Property.
The Special Use Permit Site Plan shows the location of an entry driveway, cutomer parking, the office
and the entry/exit gate. Behind the Secure Gate are Employee Parking Stalls, Trash/Recycling Enclosure,
Rental Space Parking Stalls, Access Drives, and Wash and Dump Station Service Areas. Storm water
retention will be provided on the surface and in underground tanks.
The Parking surface areas will meet or exceed the required asphalt millings compacted with a
asphaltic binder or emulsifer. All driveways will be paved. New Cool Pavement Options wil be
considered.
The required parking has been exceeded by providing ten (10) spaces over the four (4) required.
Landscaping requirements have been met or exceeded with interior landscaping at 1,218 SF
and exterior landscaping to the perimeter screen walls at 90,062 SF. The Property falls within
the Carefree Highway Scenic Corridor, landscaping will be as the Corridor landscaping is
intended.
Color palette:
The color palette that has been prepared for the SUP submittal. Earth Tone Colors were selected to
blend with the nature desert setting, see Figure #5 at the end of this Narrative Report.
Construction Materials:
The shading canopies will be pre‐engineered steel structures. Site walls will be constructed of masonry
products. The sales office building will be designed to comply with international building and energy
codes using sustainable materials (Masonry or Frame).
Eight (8) feet high perimeter screen walls will be provided, exceeding the required 80% opacity.
Sign Detail / Descriptions and Screen Wall / Fence Detail:
Business Signage is proposed as part of this development. Per Landscape Plans, the walls, sign and
landscaping areas are shown for the general character and design. Signage will be behind the 50 foot
CHSC Front Setback on a North facing wall next to the Office. Signage will be a perimeter wall sign
located outside the required front yard on a North facing wall next to the office.
Carefree Highway Scenic Corridor:
This Property is within the Carefree Highway Scenic Corridor (CHSC). The Applicant has reviewed the
following guidelines from New River / Daisy Mountain Area Plan and have ensured that they are
incorporated as part of this SUP Application, except for the requested design guideline variations listed:
1.
Height: Maximum 20’ height including rooftop parapets and roof peaks when 50’ to 100’ away
from the Highway right‐of‐way edge. 1’ height increase allowed with 5’ additional setback
with a maximum height of 30’.
2.
Slope Revegetation & Preservation of Washes/Natural Features
Luxury Storage RV & Boat, LLC
Special Use Permit Application

3.
Setback: The recommendation is a 50' front yard with an average setback of 100'. This request
will eliminate the recommended 100' average setback, keeping this as a 50' recommended
front yard.
4.
Screening: All mechanical rooftop equipment, trash enclosures, loading docks, transformers,
and other mechanical and/or electrical equipment must be screened. 8’ high perimeter wall
proposed.
5.
Driveways must be located 400’ away from a major street and must be spaced 150’ from
another driveway.
6.
All structures, fences, parking areas, and other improvements (except for driveways,
walkways, & underground Septic System ) must be setback an average of 100’; minimum of 50’
from the property line adjacent to Carefree Hwy.
7.
Lighting: Shielded, conforming w/ Section 1112 & not greater than 16’ high
8.
Utilities: Must Be Underground
Relationship to Surrounding Properties:
How will the proposal benefit the community or area:
The facility will be integrated into a generally rural character area. The Daisy Mountain/New River
Subarea Plan shows the Property within a commercial use area along the Carefree Highway. This area is
the only commercial area shown in the Daisy Mountain/New River Subarea Plan. [See attached Figures
#3]
The Property is also located near a concentrated commercial node and commercially developed parcels
along Carefree Highway. Additionally the surrounding residential areas are primarily larger lots with
many residents that have large recreational, travel trailers, and boats and are need of an area that can
store these vehicles off‐site. Additioanly, the Property is located on one of the main routes to Lake
Pleasant where residents in North Scottsdale and the greater Phoenix Valley will have a need to store
their boats and vehicle be between their residence and the Lake Pleasant.
With Luxury Storage RV & Boat offering covered vehicle storage, this will provide a highly needed and
desired location for the proposed use. Additionally, the Applicant has reached out to several of the area
interest groups including the New River Preservation Group, New River/Desert Hills Community
Association, and New River Desert Hills. Initially, their reponses have been generally positive and we
have incorporated details into this SUP Application to address some of their comments.
Discussion of the recent changes in the area of the request that support the application:
The Daisy Mountain/New River Subarea Plan shows the Property as one of the very limited areas with
allowed commercial uses. Also, the facility is located one of the most significant arterials in the area. The
area has had excellerated growth since the 2000’s and has transitioned from manufactured homes to
million dollar site built homes.
While some large estate homes may include an RV garage, it is still common for area resident to not
have an area to store their additional vehicle such as boats, RVs, extra cars and trucks located on their
properties. These expensive vehicles are rarely covered and the residents desire a quality place store
their RV’s, travel trialers, and boats away from single family residential sites.

Location and Accessibility:
Luxury Storage RV & Boat is located on Carefree Highway, within a commecially designated planned
area and a scenic corridor. The access will be directly to Carefree Highway and will be limited to one (1)
main driveway along Carefree Highway. There will be 1 main driveway and 1 emergency driveway along
Carefree Highway.
Carefree Highway has a center median at this location. Per MCDOT Traffic Impact Analysis Approval with
the following three (3) Stipulations: There will be right turn in and right turn out access only for this
parcel; no left turn lane in at center median for west bound traffic; right turn deceleration lane required
at main driveway for east bound thru traffic.
There is no contact with access to either 12th Street or 14th Street. There are interving neighboring
parcels between the Property and each of those streets. The washes in the area generally flow on either
side of the Property with no designated floodplains on the Property.
Varied Development Standards and Justifications
The Luxury Storage RV & Boat Site Plan proposes a commercial use as allowed under a Special Use
Permit. As such, the use is commercial in nature, so this Application reflects Commercial Zoning
Development Setbacks for the Side and Rear Yard Setbacks. The use is not a noxious commercial in any
way and does require additional buffering associated with other noxious commercial uses. Vegetation
will be appropriately placed on the Property perimeter, as required to provide aesthetics to any
adjacent properties.
Applicant is requesting to eliminate the CHSC Guideline’s average 100’ deep front setback and keep this
recommended front setback as a minimum of 50’. The site is in the Carefree Highway Scenic Corridor
(CHSC) and this development will keep 95% of the site’s front yard as open space including a storm
water retention basin and a natural drainage path which routes storm water from the north through the
property along the west property line exiting on the south property line.
An additional request to vary the maximum lot coverage from 25% to 44%. The Applicant’s Justification
for an increase in Lot Coverage reflects basis for the SUP Application converting the Land Use from
Residential to Commercial.
The South Rear Yard will have a 15’ Minimum Setback to the Shade Canopies and Pavement; the Shade
Canopies will ocupy 46% of the required southern rear yard with the balance 44% maintained as open
space including the storm water retention basin. The Shade Canpies will be screened from view on
adjacent parcels by the existing trees on the adjacent property north property line.
The West Side Yard will have a 15’ Minimum Setback to the Shade Canopies and Pavement; the Shade
Canopies will ocupy 72% of the required western side yard with the balance 28% maintained as open
space.
The East Side Yard will have a 15’ Minimum Setback to the Shade Canopies and Pavement; the Shade
Canopies will ocupy 83% of the required eastern side yard with the balance 17% maintained as open
space.

Circulation System:
Luxury Storage RV & Boat is a walled facility with one (1) main driveway and one (1) emergency
driveway access with gates. Upon entering the facility, there are a series of thirty five (35) feet wide
drive aisles accessing angled storage spaces. The submitted Site Plan shows access, circulation and
dimensions.
The design will comply with access and turn radius requirements for fire trucks. It will also comply with
the pick‐up and 3‐point turn requirements for sanitation trucks.
Grading and drainage solutions often impact land use and circulation. The proposed Civil Site Plan has
incorporated all the requirements into a cohesive design. The Property is impacted by regional surface
storm water flows on adjacent washes and piped under Carefree Highway. The drainage flows from
these culverts have been taken into account with the submitted Grading and Drainage Plan. On‐Site
Storm Water Retention is proposed to be in a surface basins. Historical Flows have been taken into
account with the submitted design.
A Traffic Statement has been provided with this SUP Application. The proposed development is
anticipated to generate 106 weekday daily trips, with 17 trips during the AM peak hour and 20 trips
during the PM peak hour.
Development Schedule:
The Property owner intends to build and operate the facility as soon as the required permits are
received. Luxury Storage RV & Boat will be built in a single phase.
Community Facilities and Services:
The Luxury Storage RV & Boat facility does not need community facilities to support its operation more
than what is currently available in the immediate area. Fire services are close by and responsive and as a
non‐residential use it requirs very little community support serices.
Public Utilities and Services:
The Owner has entered into a Water Main Extension Agreement with the Town of Cave Creek for Water
Service, approval pending. A Sewer Line will be stubbed out for future connection to municipal sewer.
Sewer will be provided by a private vendor and the sales office will be served by an on‐site septic
system. There will be public restroom facilities in the sales office that will be available during business
hours. The manager will not have a residence on the Property. Any required gas service will be provided
via propane. Electricity will be obtained from Arizona Public Service.
Daisy Mountain Fire Department is the nearest fire services as well as the paramedics. The Property is
also in the area served by the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Department, which has made this a very safe
community for many years.

RE: Case Z20211034
Opposition to Case Z202134
We are the owner of the property (APN# 211-74-001A) directly to the east of the
subject property where the application is filed for Luxury Storage.
Our family purchased this property to build a house which we are currently
working on the plans. We originally called & talked to Applicant’s representative
voicing our concern & objection about the noise, height of carports, visibility of
vehicles over the fence, height of fence, vegetation, etc,…. Applicant’s
representative promised to send us additional plans addressing our concerns.
We have not heard from applicant to date and are very concern to view bunch of
parked vehicles, rows of carport structure & other items visible over the fence to
reduce value of our property and completely ruining our backyard views and
comfort. We purchased in this area to have peace, quiet & enjoy the wide open
rural space.
We respect our neighbors and try hard not to intrude on their privacy and
enjoyment of their ownership. We just expect the same respect for our privacy
and enjoyment of our ownership..
We hereby oppose and object to the approval of such permit and wish the
applicant find a better suitable space where it does not impact the neighbors.
My wife & I are out of town during the hearing time & won’t be able to attend the
hearing. We will be available for phone call should that option be available.
Sincerely,

Hi Rachel,
I have some concerns with the Planning & Zoning Commission Hearing Date on Thursday,
March 10th at 9:30am for Agenda item #2 Case #Z2021034 Luxury Storage RV & Boat.
My name is Steve Villarreal and I am in opposition of this project, email is
Steve.Villarreal@outlook.com and my phone number is 602-397-7203. I own parcel #211-74-
140, which is within 300 feet of this proposed project.
Opposition
I wish to speak at the hearing.
My concerns are: you have 9 supporting letters which are from homeowners that aren't even in
the vicinity of this proposed project. One letter in particular from Jonathon Charnock, address
34322 N 14th St., Phoenix, which is my direct neighbor. You have a signed support letter dated
1/6/22 from him, however, he sold this house sometime around July 2021. Phil, the new
neighbor is totally against this project and it is very concerning with how many other fraudulent
letters of support you may have received.
My second concern is: drainage from this property is tremendously going to affect my property
as the wash runs directly in the middle of my land.
Third concern: Traffic. Will 12th and 14th Street now become an area where individuals will be
making a U-Turn to access and exit the facility an most likely will be towing trailers, making
these very dangerous intersections.
Fourth concern: Cave Creek Water District is not supplying any more water meters for new
developments; so what is your main source of water?
Lastly, how does an RV and Boat Storage Facility benefit any resident in the Desert Hills / New
River area, when we all have ample room for storage of RV and boats on our property?
Thank you,
Steve Villarreal

Reason for the Appeal of
the Subject Case
The major opposition to the Special Use Permit is the proposed
project seems incompatible to the surrounding area of residential
and rural use. Because of the project size, people living in the
