White Tank Foothills: Project Narrative
3.2 Relationship to Surrounding Properties
To the north and east of White Tank Foothills Phase 3 are White Tank Foothills Phases 1 and 2 
which consist of existing single-family homes as well as homes still under construction that 
are zoned R1-6 RUPD PAD and R1-7 RUPD PAD. To the south and the southeast, across Northern 
Avenue, are single-family homes zoned RU-43. West of the Site, across the Perryville Road 
Alignment, is Zanjero Trails which is currently undeveloped and zoned R1-6 RUPD PAD and

4. Plan Description
4.1 Proposed Land Use
This amendment seeks to change the land uses for the Site, which includes Parcels 3.11 through 
3.14. The current proposal breaks up the Site into nine (9) development parcels (Parcels 3.11 
through 3.19). Parcels 3.15 through 3.19, located internal to the Site, consist of the Small Lot 
Residential land use. Parcels 3.11 through 3.14 are located at the southern boundary of the Site 
and will consist of the Small Lot Residential and Transitional Lot land uses. The Transitional Lot 
land use designation was developed as a designation within the Comprehensive Plan after the 
most recent DMP amendment occurred. The Transitional Lot land use designation allows for 
density and intensity transitions between Small Lot Residential and Suburban land uses. The 
proposed changes are necessary to provide a wider variety of lot sizes and housing choices, 
including 5,750 square feet, 6,600 square feet, 7,200 square feet, 7,475 square feet, 9,000 square 
feet, and 10,350 square feet. The Transitional Lot land use is proposed adjacent to Northern 
Avenue and Citrus Road to continue to ensure an appropriate density transition is provided 
adjacent to the existing large lot single-family residences.
As indicated in the table on the following page, this application does not propose any changes to 
the land use designations or zoning for Phases 1 and 2 of White Tank Foothills. This application 
ďĊăřĨīďĨďĮÐĮĉďÌðũÆ­ĴðďĊĮĴďĴìÐqì­ĮÐǬă­ĊÌķĮÐÆ­ĴÐæďīðÐĮȤķĨÌ­ĴðĊæĴìÐĉĴďīÐŪÐÆĴwĉ­ăă
Lot Residential and/or Transitional Lot land use categories. Phase 1 and Phase 2 will continue 
ĴďīÐŪÐÆĴĴìЭĨĨīďŒÐÌă­ĊÌķĮÐÆ­ĴÐæďīðÐĮ­ĮÆķīīÐĊĴăřĮìďœĊ. The Small Lot Residential and 
Transitional Lot land use categories will create additional housing options in the area and 
improve density transitions within the local context.

5. Suitability Analysis
}ìðĮ­ĉÐĊÌĉÐĊĴĴďqì­ĮÐǬďåĴìДìðĴÐ}­Ċā9ďďĴìðăăĮ#TqœðăăÅÐĊÐũĴ­ĊÌðĉĨīďŒÐĴìÐīÐæðďĊȣ
Continued development in the area and a high demand housing market supports the development 
of the site. The development of the Site promotes the success of the overall White Tank Foothills 
development. Current market conditions require quality communities with a variety of product 
types. The proposed site plan is conducive to these conditions and will provide buyers with 
ÌðŒÐīĮÐăďĴĮðšÐ­ĊÌŪďďīĨă­ĊďĨĴðďĊĮȣT­īāÐĴÆďĊÌðĴðďĊĮì­ŒÐÆì­ĊæÐÌĮðĊÆÐĴìÐwðĴМ­Į
zoned in 2003, and this amendment is necessary to implement a well-planned community that 
contributes to the overall success of the region. It is unlikely that the proposed development 
will have any negative impacts on the Site or surrounding area.
The Site continues to meet the intent of the County’s Comprehensive Plan as it did when it was 
rezoned in 2003 and amended in 2014. The proposed amendment will not negatively impact 
compliance with the Plan.
6. Conclusion
We believe that the White Tank Foothills Phase 3 project will be cohesive with the existing 
features and lifestyles found at the White Tank Foothills community and meet or exceed the 
expectations summarized in the White Tank and Grand Avenue Area Plan’s vision while meeting 
current homebuyer needs.

1.  Executive Summary
The White Tank Foothills master-planned community ("White Tank Foothills") is approximately 640 acres 
located in Maricopa County ("the County"). This application from Northern Citrus, LLP is requesting an 
amendment to the zoning of White Tank Foothills. The amendment focuses on existing Phase 3 (Parcels 
3.11, 3.12, 3.13, and 3.14). The amendment will rezone 232.28 gross acres (222.92 net acres) from R1-6 
RUPD PAD, R1-7 RUPD PAD, R1-8 RUPD PAD, R1-18 RUPD PAD, and RU-43 PAD to R1-6 RUPD PAD, 
R1-7 RUPD PAD, R1-8 RUPD, and R1-10 RUPD PAD, to allow a single-family community located at the 
northwest corner of Citrus Road and Northern Avenue in White Tank Foothills Phase 3 (. The rezoning 
of Phase 3 will be exclusive of the City of Surprise lift station, EPCOR well site, or White Tank Foothills 
HOA property ("the Site"). The Site is proposing 645 dwelling units (2.63 du/ac) within Phase 3, which 
will increase the overall number of lots within White Tank Foothills to 1,621 with an overall density of 2.53 
du/ac. The current entitlements are 1,381 lots for an overall density of 2.16 du/ac. The proposed zoning 
districts will create additional housing options in the area and will transition densities between Phases 
1 and 2 to the north and the adjacent properties south of the Northern Avenue. The requested RUPD/
PAD amendment will be accompanied by a DMP amendment application, which will be submitted and 
processed concurrently.
Approval of this zoning request and amendment to the RUPD development standards will allow the Site to 
continue to be developed as a high-quality residential community, which will be an attractive presence in

2. Location Description
White Tank Foothills is located within Western 
Maricopa County. The 232.28 gross acre Site 
is a portion of the overall approximately 640-
acre White Tank Foothills PAD Overlay. The Site 
is currently undeveloped land being used for 
agricultural purposes. To the north and northeast 
are Phases 1 and 2 of White Tank Foothills, which 
have been completed or are currently under 
construction. 
White Tank Foothills is located approximately 2.4 
miles west of Arizona State Route 303 and 6.2 miles 
north of Interstate 10, both of which connect the 
Site to the greater Phoenix metropolitan area. The 
primary access to the Site is through the White 
Tank Mountain Boulevard within Phases 1 and 2, 
which connects to Seldon Lane and 183rd Avenue. 
From there the roads connect to Olive Avenue and 
Citrus Road. There are intentionally no access 
points into the White Tank Foothills community 
from Northern Avenue as was agreed to in the 
original RUPD/PAD zoning case (Condition ‘g’ of 
DMP200002).

3. Site Analysis
3.1 Existing Land Uses and Zoning
The White Tank Foothills Development Master Plan (DMP200002) was approved by the Board of Supervisors 
(BOS) on August 22, 2001. On July 2, 2003, the BOS approved a Major Amendment to the DMP for White 
Tank Foothills (DMP2002006) and Rezoning (Z2000136).The 2003 RUPD and DMP amendment covered 
approximately 640 acres and included approximately 482 acres of Small Lot Residential Use with a range 
of zoning districts from R1-6 RUPD to R1-8 RUPD and lot sizes ranging from 6,000 square feet to 10,500 
square feet; approximately 101 acres of Rural Residential Use with R1-18 RUPD zoning and lot sizes at 
18,000 square feet; a 10-acre park; a 15-acre school site; 21.59 acres of Community Commercial (Parcel 
1.1); and 8.45 acres of Neighborhood Commercial (Parcel 1.4). The total number of lots approved for White 
Tank Foothills was 1,381 single-family residential units at a density of 2.16 du/acre. 
In 2005, a second RUPD amendment was approved to address development standards (Z2000136). The 
purpose of the amendment was to address the location of the front setback in relation to the minimum 
required lot width for each non-standard lot. A third RUPD DMP amendment was approved in 2014 by 
the BOS (Z2013078). The 2014 amendment changed the commercial zoning on Phase 1 Parcels 1.1 and 
1.4 to residential zoning. Phase 1 Parcels 1.1 and 1.4 were rezoned from commercial to R1-6 which added

residential yield to 1,363 units, an approximate density of 2.13 du/acre. Since the 2014 RUPD approval, 
Phase 1 is mostly developed with the exception of Parcels 1.1 and 1.4, Phase 2 is in the process of being 
developed, and Phase 3 remains undeveloped.

3.2 Relationship to Surrounding Properties
To the north and east of White Tank Foothills Phase 3 are White Tank Foothills Phases 1 and 2 which 
consist of existing single-family homes as well as homes still under construction that are zoned R1-6 
RUPD PAD and R1-7 RUPD PAD. To the south and the southeast, across Northern Avenue, are single-
family homes zoned RU-43. West of the Site, across the Perryville Road Alignment, is Zanjero Trails which 
is currently undeveloped and zoned R1-6 RUPD PAD and R1-8 RUPD PAD. The General Plan Land Use

4. Plan Description
4.1 Proposed Zoning
This request proposes to modify the zoning and development standards for the Site. The request proposes 
to rezone the Site from R1-6 RUPD PAD, R1-7 RUPD PAD, R1-8 RUPD PAD, R1-18 RUPD PAD, and RU-43 PAD 
to R1-6 RUPD PAD, R1-7 RUPD PAD, R1-8 RUPD, and R1-10 RUPD PAD Modifying the zoning for Parcels 
3.11 through 3.19 will create a wider variety of lot sizes and housing choices, as well as a better density 
transition to adjacent sites. The Site will primarily consist of R1-6 RUPD PAD zoning with a small portion 
of R1-7 RUPD PAD zoning at the southern end of the Site adjacent to White Tank Mountain Boulevard. The 
proposed R1-8 RUPD zoning will only be located in Parcel 3.11. The proposed R1-10 RUPD PAD zoning will 
be adjacent to Northern Avenue and Citrus Road. The R1-10 RUPD PAD zoning will provide a buffer and 
density/intensity transition between the Site and the adjacent existing large lot single-family residences. 
As indicated in the following table, this application does not propose any changes to the zoning districts 
for Phases 1 and 2 of White Tank Foothills. The only amendments to the Site are for White Tank Foothills 
qì­ĮÐǬĴìÐĨīďĨďĮÐÌĉďÌðũÆ­ĴðďĊĮĴďĴìÐt€q#šďĊðĊæ­ĊÌÌÐŒÐăďĨĉÐĊĴĮĴ­ĊÌ­īÌĮðĊďīÌÐīåďīĴìÐ
proposed site plan to improve density transitions within the local context.
The proposed changes are necessary to provide a wider variety of lot sizes and housing choices, including 
5,750 square feet, 6,325 square feet, 6,600 square feet, 6,900 square feet, 7,475 square feet, 9,000 square 
feet, and 10,350 square feet. The changes proposed to the Site under this rezoning increases the number 
of lots in Phase 3 from 387 to 645 a density of 2.63 du/ac. This proposal slightly increases the overall 
White Tank Foothills lot count from 1,363 to 1,621 units, an overall density to 2.53 du/ac.

and a sixty-foot (60’) collector street as its street network. Access to the overall White Tank Foothills 
development is from the adjacent arterial street network from the following locations: one location 
along Olive Avenue at 183rd Avenue and a second location along Citrus Road at Seldon Lane, both of 
which are existing and intersect White Tank Mountain Boulevard. According to Condition ‘g’ of Z200002, 
Northern Avenue will not include any vehicular access points to the White Tank Foothills development

4.3.2 Pedestrian Circulation
The pedestrian paths and trail system for the Site are designed to provide for non-motorized circulation 
within the community. This will be achieved by using both sidewalks and concrete trails to create a 
network of routes through the community. Paved sidewalks along roadways are the primary form of 
pedestrian connectivity for the Site. Arterial streets including Northern Avenue, Citrus Road, and Perryville 
Road Alignment will be accompanied by ten-foot (10') detached concrete sidewalks that will connect

foot (5') detached concrete sidewalks on both sides of the road. These sidewalks will connect to, and be 
a continuation of, the existing detached sidewalks along the developed portion of White Tank Mountain 
Boulevard in Phases 1 and 2. Further, an eight-foot (8') concrete trail along the north/northeast boundary 
of the Site, will serve as a connection from the Site to the dedicated school site in Phase 2 and the 10-acre 
White Tank Foothills Park in Phase 1. As described, the planned pedestrian circulation system facilitates 
open space, sidewalk, and trail connections to amenities and destinations in all Phases of White Tank 
Foothills. The increased pedestrian and bicycle activity will provide opportunities for social interaction 
and a stronger sense of community within the overall White Tank Foothills development.
4.4 Development Schedule (Phasing)
It is anticipated that the project will be built in multiple phases due in part to market absorption.  Sub-
phases may be considered to accommodate infrastructure construction and the construction of model

the Preliminary Plat submittal process.
4.5 Open Space and Landscape
White Tank Foothills was approved to have a minimum of 97.30 acres of open space, 45 acres for Phase 
3. This application proposes to provide an additional 4.35 acres of open space for Phase 3, increasing 
the Phase 3 open space total to 50.36 acres and the overall White Tank Foothills open space to 101.65 
acres. These open spaces will be maintained by the community’s HOA. 
The open space system will provide active and passive recreational areas, access to an off-site park,

separate pocket parks accessible by a network of sidewalks making each park conveniently located for 
residents to experience and explore. Landscape will provide shade for the walks, amenities, and buffer 
adjacent residential lots.
In addition to Phase 3 open spaces, the Site is conveniently located within walking and biking distance 
to Phase 1 and Phase 2 of White Tank Foothills, which have similar open spaces including a 10-acre 
neighborhood park in Phase 1. Further, all originally approved RUPD and DMP residential open space 
and landscape standards, requirements, and theming elements will be maintained and utilized for the 
amended parcels within Phase 3.

White Tank Mountains and due to concerns regarding light pollution. 
4.5.2 Entry Features and Monumentation
The Parcel Entry Sign Wall is a direct interpretation of the Parcel Entry Sign Wall at the existing White Tank 
Foothills community with the intent to be a seamless transition from the existing community to the Site. 
Due to the location of the Site in relation to the existing White Tank Foothills community, no other entry 
features, signage, or monumentation will be provided. Existing Primary Sign Walls are located at the 
arterial streets, Citrus Road and Olive Avenue as the Site is only accessible from Citrus Road or Olive 
Avenue.

4.7 Existing Public Recreation Areas
To the northwest of the site lies the spectacular White Tank Mountain Regional Park, one of the largest 
regional parks in all of Maricopa County at 29,572 acres that features rugged mountain terrain, gentle 
foothills, open valley views, and a network of trails that lead to some of the most spectacular views in 
the Phoenix metropolitan area. The regional park includes areas for camping, picnics, volleyball, an 
extensive network of hiking and biking trails, and a seasonal waterfall is accessible via hike during the 
rainy season. The park offers an array of recreational and educational events on a regular basis including 
a starry night hike that visitors can enjoy unparalleled views of the city lights and the night sky. 
4.8 Existing Libraries
The award-winning White Tank Library and Nature Center (that also is a trailhead for accessing the 
White Tank Mountain Regional Park) is approximately four (4 miles) to the northwest from the Site. This 
29,000 square foot library has a collection capacity of 35,000 books and has unparalleled panoramic 
views of the White Tank Mountains.

Solid Waste Services are provided by Waste Management or other independent solid waste service 
company whose franchise application is approved by the Homeowner’s Association.
4.9.3 Water
The White Tank Foothills Master Planned community is serviced by the EPCOR Water Company. EPCOR 
has existing infrastructure in the White Tank Foothills master-planned community and directly adjacent 
to the Site. As part of previous infrastructure agreements, the neighboring Cortessa Master Planned 
community and White Tank Foothills together set aside four (4) joint-use well and treatment sites for 
the combined master-planned communities. The location of the four well sites is included as part of 
the overall water infrastructure. Of the wells, two (2) fully developed wells are in Cortessa, one (1) is fully 
developed in White Tank Foothills.  The well site labeled as number (4) is a no-development (currently 
undeveloped) obligation well site, though it has been dedicated to EPCOR for their development of a future 
well site.  For the waterline infrastructure, the Site will connect at four (4) locations to existing EPCOR 
infrastructure: to the existing twelve-inch (12”) water line within White Tank Mountain Boulevard (which 
is an existing waterline stub to the Phase 3 development from the northwest), the existing twelve-inch 
(12”) line in Seldon Lane (via eight-inch (8”) water stub provided to Phase 3 of the development in 181st
Avenue), to the existing eighteen-inch (18”) line in Citrus Road (which will be a new waterline tap servicing 
the Site), and a supplemental connection to an existing six-inch (6”) waterline in Northern Avenue at the 
Perryville Road alignment intersection.  This last connection will be a twelve-inch (12”) line that runs 
from White Tank Mountain Boulevard to the Northern Avenue and Perryville Road intersection location. 
Upgraded waterline in Northern Avenue will be provided by EPCOR. Water demand calculations for the 
project will be based on system design criteria of the EPCOR design standards.  The system is designed 
to maintain normal operation pressures of forty (40) psi minimum, and one hundred (100) psi maximum.

Report for White Tank Foothills Phase 2 and Phase 3.
Within the White Tank Foothills Master-planned community is Phase 3, which is the only remaining 
phase of the overall community left to be platted.  As already mentioned, the existing sewer collection 
system for all of the Cortessa and White Tank Foothills developments is already installed.  With Phases 1 
and 2 of White Tank Foothills, infrastructure sewer collection systems were installed in the main access 
road of the development, White Tank Mountain Boulevard.  The existing collection line for Phase 3 starts 
upstream in White Tank Mountain Boulevard with pipes in the collector street ranging from 8” to 12” 
diameter.  The downstream 12” diameter line discharges to the existing Lift Station at the southeast 
corner of the Phase 3 part of the development.

Sewer Demands
As described, sewer demands in total to the gravity system are generated by the Cortessa development 
and the overall White Tank Foothills (Phases 1 – 3) development.  An original master sewer study by DEA 
for the overall system analysis for the collection system and lift station was prepared in 2004.  A summary 
of sewer demands is located in the table below, Table 1.

5. Conclusion
We believe that the Site will be cohesive with the existing features and lifestyles found at the White Tank 
Foothills community and meet or exceed the expectations summarized in the White Tank and Grand 
Avenue Area Plan’s vision while meeting current homebuyer needs.

2/26/2022 
 
I no longer oppose White Tank Foothills development due to mitigations. 
 
I have lived at 8113 N. Citrus Rd, Waddell, AZ 85355 for over 20 years.  There is a great 
concern with the high-density community, which will bring in a huge increase to the 
traffic/noise levels to the already busy/race track, N. Citrus Rd.  I hope the Board will 
consider implementing a traffic design on N. Citrus Rd, which will lower the traffic, speed, 
safety, and the potentials of Citrus Rd. being constructed next to the property lines of every 
resident (Crystal Springs Community) that live on the eastside of N. Citrus Rd.  
 
Thank you for your consideration, 
 
Thomas Chin
