SUBJECT: Glen Village on 62nd, Case No. ZON25-05 and GPA25-03 
 
Dear Neighbor, 
This letter is to inform you that we are applying for a Planned Area Development (PAD) and a General Plan 
Amendment applications with the City of Glendale for property located at 62nd Avenue and W. 
Orangewood Avenue in the Ocotillo Council District. 
 
The property includes three parcels (APNs 143-38-018A, 143-38-017A, 143-38-028F) identified on the 
enclosed site plan as Parcel A, Parcel B, and Parcel C. that are currently zoned R-3, totaling approx. 37,387 
square feet with a total of approx. 6,391 in livable area. The project, called Glen Village on 62nd, includes 
nine fully renovated homes.  
 
The PAD request allows these homes to remain while also accommodating new housing consistent with 
Glendale’s growth goals. The immediate proposal includes two new two-story residential units (approx. 3,680 
sq. ft. total livable area) on Parcel A (14,636 sq. ft. lot). Future redevelopment would also allow a range of 
attached and detached homes, townhomes, and Dwelling, For Rent Community, with updated standards for 
setbacks, parking, landscaping, and open space. The purpose of this request is to modernize an existing 
residential community, reinvest in older homes (built in the 1940s–50s), and provide additional high-quality 
housing options. 
 
Zoning:

Current: Residential (R-3 base standards)
