Project Description
The Pizzuti Companies (“Pizzuti” or the “Applicant”) proposes to develop approximately 75 gross acres located
at the northwest corner of Glendale Avenue and Reems Road (the “Property”). This application requests
approval of a Planned Area Development (“PAD”) District to allow the development of a modern industrial
warehouse development known as Bickman Industrial.
The Applicant seeks to develop the Property in accordance with the Light Industrial (M-1) zoning with modified
development standards to meet the heightened level of expectation for industrial users within this expanding
manufacturing and transportation corridor. The requested zoning is compliant with jurisdictional regulations
governing property near a military installation with flight operations and within the Luke Air Force Base noise
contours. The Property is currently within the unincorporated area of Maricopa County and is within the City of
Glendale’s Planning Area. An application to annex the Property into the City of Glendale is being processed in
conjunction with this application.
The Bickman Industrial PAD is intended to provide a superior land plan to what could be achieved in Maricopa
County and facilitate the development of a modern industrial project that is compatible with the mission of Luke
Air Force Base, the City of Glendale’s General Plan, and Arizona Revised Statutes for property near a military
airport. Developing the Project will create opportunities to maximize the freeway access and synergy of other
new manufacturing and industrial developments in the area. The Planned Area Development regulations are
tailored to the proposed development and reflect today’s market for warehouse/distribution facilities.
Notification Technique
A notification letter describing the application and inviting the recipients to a virtual neighborhood meeting
scheduled for June 9, 2021 at 5:30 pm was mailed to the following individuals and entities on May 28, 2021:

Meeting Summary
A virtual neighborhood meeting was held for the proposed project on June 9, 2021 from 5:30 pm to 6:30 pm via
Zoom. Approximately seven (7) individuals registered to attend the meeting. At the beginning of the meeting, the
applicant provided an overview of the project and described the site history, proposed development standards,
features and architecture, and landscape. A copy of the slides presented at the neighborhood meeting are
attached at Tab 2.
Following the presentation, the development team opened up the meeting to questions and answers. Questions
focused on building setbacks, building height, traffic and vehicular circulation, and roadway improvements. The
development team answered addressed all questions asked by the participants, and also explained that the
proposed development aligns with the uses permitted within the Luke Air Force Base noise contours and is
consistent with both the City of Glendale’s General Plan and prevailing development patterns in this area. At the
