SUBJECT: The Base Comprehensive Sign Plan - SR24-0777 
 
 
Dear Neighbor: 
This letter is to inform you that I am applying for a Conditional Use Permit application 
for a Comprehensive Sign Plan for The Base Industrial Park with the City of Glendale. 
The property is located at 6302 N Litchfield Road in the Yucca District. 
 
The Base is a multi-phased industrial park development that is PAD (Planned Area 
Development) zoned,  located at the southwest corner of North Litchfield Road and 
Super Sabre, south of Luke Airforce Base in Glendale, Arizona. Phase One of The 
Base is situated on 86.49 acres with seven industrial office/warehouse buildings 
totalling in 1,182,877 square feet. Per zoning case ZON22-05, a Comprehensive Sign 
Plan must be approved by the City of Glendale before sign permits can be issued.  
 
The CSP for Phase I of The Base will consist of an internally illuminated 20 foot tall 
multi-tenant Primary Project Identification sign located at the main entrance to the site 
on North Litchfield Road. This sign will have an upper illuminated sign cabinet with the 
project identification and tenant with a total of 119.4 square feet of sign area and 
mounted to a masonry base.  
 
This CSP will also direct the location and sign type allowances for building mounted 
tenant signage, with varying size sign bands, locations for tenant signage throughout 
the project. These signs may be of pan channel or reverse pan channel letters, with 
corporate logos allowed. They may be face or halo illuminated, and corporate colors 
will be allowed with the landlord approval. 
 
 In addition to these signs, there are also to be 12 property directional signs in various 
locations interior to the site to direct vehicular traffic. These signs shall be double 
sided, 3’ in height and 2’ in width, with aluminum non-illuminated panels painted dark 
gray  mounted to 2” square posts, with building numbers and arrows in white vinyl.  
 
I have included a sampling of proposed signage with this letter and am happy to 
provide the full document upon request. Please reach out via the contact information 
above. Other questions or concerns may be directed to me or the City Planner, Amy 
Schwenner at 623-930-2805. Comments must be received by Wednesday, March 19, 
2025..

Please also note the enclosed Notification Area Map. Property owners highlighted in
