Citizen Participation Report – Bethany Home 303 
 
Brief Description of the Proposed Project 
The purpose of this Citizen Participation Report is to summarize how the citizens, 
property owners, neighbor associations, agencies, schools, and businesses in the 
vicinity of the site of a Planned Area Development (PAD) application have had 
opportunities to comment and participate in the planning process. The site is located 
at the ¼ mile south and west of the SWC of Bethany Home Avenue and Sarival Road; 
and is an application for approximately 38.4-acres that is seeking an Industrial PAD 
in Glendale with specific deviations from several City development standards. 
Specifically, the project is seeking to modify development standards for building 
heights, floor to area ratios, parking minimums and signage. The project is planned 
in several phases, with the initial phase to include two mid-sized warehouse buildings. 
The second phase would include full build out for the site located along the Loop 
303 freeway corridor.  
 
Notification Technique for this project 
The notification technique recommended by the city was used for this project and 
was a notification mailing. A copy of the notification letter has been attached to the 
end of this report, which staff reviewed and approved, before it was sent. 
 
Notification Process 
The notification process is defined by guidelines provided by the City of Glendale 
and includes all individuals within a 300’ buffer of the project property line. A 
notification map has been included with this report to show graphically where the 
300’ buffer occurs, and the properties associated with that notification boundary. 
 
This report also includes homeowner associations, registered neighborhoods, and 
their representatives, within the notification limits required by the city. Their names 
were included in the list of those who were notified about the project. Individuals on 
the “Interested Parties” list currently maintained by the City of Glendale were also 
included in the notification about the project.  
 
Affected or Potentially Affected Parties 
The proposed project site is adjacent to a palm tree nursery to the north and is 
surrounded by farmland to the south and vacant land to the east. Directly to the 
west is State Route Loop 303. To the northeast is currently farmland that is being 
developed into warehouse. There are no adjacent residential properties and there 
are no residential neighbors in the vicinity and there are no potentially affected 
individuals known at this time.

Perspective of Potentially Affected Parties 
Consideration was given to the potential for issues such as blocked views, the 
appearance of structures, vehicle circulation, proper screening, appropriate 
landscape buffers, the safety of the surrounding resident and improvements in 
surrounding roadways. The result for this project will include more jobs for the area 
and improvements to the roadway system, including freshly paved roadways with 
curb, gutter, sidewalks, and lighting. This will make the neighborhood safer than it is 
today. This report has considered the perspective of potentially affected neighbors. 
 
                     Opportunities and Methods to Discuss the Proposal 
To encourage effective citizen participation in conjunction with the application, 
several opportunities were provided and will be provided through the public hearing 
process to understand and address the real or perceived impacts the request would 
pose to members of the surrounding community. These opportunities are described 
below. 
 
Notification Letter: All persons listed on the contact list were sent a letter, by first 
class mail, that provided notice of the proposed project, which described the 
project, and included a concept plan diagram for the proposed PAD Area. 
  
Contact List: A contact list of citizens in the area was created that lists all property 
owners within the 300-foot recommended boundary of the project. There are no 
Homeowner Associations or Registered Neighborhood Groups in the notification 
area. Those individuals on the “Interested Parties” list maintained by the Planning 
Division have been included in the contact list. The notification letter has been 
submitted with this report to the project planner and was approved before 
distribution as per the schedule below. 
 
Neighborhood Meeting: City of Glendale staff has recommended that a 
neighborhood meeting will not be required for this proposal, due to the fact that 
there are no adjacent residential properties adjacent to or within 300-feet of the 
site. 
 
Public Hearing Notification Postcard: All persons listed on the contact list will 
receive a note card, by first class mail, that provides notice of the two scheduled 
public hearings and briefly describes the project. 
 
Publication: A notice will be published on in the Glendale Star (a local 
newspaper of general circulation) when the hearing dates are known, to inform 
the residents living within the City and those within the circulation of the 
publication. 
 
Physical Posting:  Physical Posting of the property will occur a minimum of 15 
days before the scheduled hearing date for the Planning Commission and the 
City Council meeting date. Affidavits of posting along with photos will be

provided as evidence of compliance with City requirements.  All signs will be 
removed on 14 days after the City Council public hearing and vote. 
 
Note: There have been no comments, questions and concerns received as of 
the date of this participation report. Any comments will be copied to the project 
planner with the City of Glendale. There have been no responses and there are 
no comments to be included in this final citizen participation report (CPR). 
 
 
Changes and Amendments to the Proposed Development 
If a major change or amendment occurs to the proposed development after the 
initial mailing, another notification letter will be mailed, as soon as possible, before 
the hearing date. There have been no changes to the proposed develop as of the 
date of this CPR. 
 
Status Updates to City Planning Staff 
City of Glendale planning staff has been involved in developing the notification list 
and has approved the notification letter. This CPR has been submitted to the 
planning staff before the public hearings. Planning staff will receive any 
communications with citizens or other interested parties. This final Citizens 
Participation Report has been created summarizing the results of the efforts outlined 
within this Citizen Participation Report. No responses have been received as of the 
date of this final CPR.

Re: Bethany Home 303 Planned Area Development (PAD) Rezone 
Case# ZON22-14 
  
 
Dear Neighbor,  
 
We are applying for a rezone to modify an existing Industrial M-1 zoning with a PAD 
for approximately 38.4- acres located ¼ Mile South and West of the SWC of Bethany 
Home Avenue and Sarival Road in Glendale, Arizona. This request is for development 
of a light industrial site with two warehouse buildings. The assessor parcel number for 
the property is 501-02-007J. The request is to modify City of Glendale development 
standards through the PAD process to accommodate new warehouse technology 
and attract jobs to the area. This letter is being sent to all property owners within 300-
feet of the property and a list of interested parties, at the request of the City of 
Glendale as a part of the planning process. A copy of the proposed site is enclosed 
for your review. 
 
The City will mail out notifications for the hearing dates once they are known to all 
persons on the notification list. The site will be posted with the same information. 
Information about the hearings will be available on the City of Glendale’s website, 
after hearing dates are provided. 
 
You are invited to attend and provide any input you may have regarding this 
proposal. This quest is subject to hearing review by the Glendale Planning 
Commission and Glendale City Council. This letter is being sent to take comments 
and provide answers in advance of those hearings. Please provide any comments, 
questions, or concerns to me by September 19th, 2022. Again, you will be notified of 
the hearings once they are scheduled with a follow up mailing from the City. 
  
Please email me at mbuschbacher@EarlCurley.com or call 602-265-0094 with any 
questions. Alex Lerma, a planner with the City can be reached at 623-930-2810 
should you have any questions regarding the Citizen Participation process. If you 
have sold this property in the interim, please forward this correspondence to the new 
owner. 
 
Sincerely,
