1 PARKWAY 303 WEST SWC Loop 303 & Peoria Avenue Glendale, Arizona Citizen Participation Final Report BICKMAN INDUSTRIAL Project Description Suburban Land Reserve, Inc. (“SLR”) plans to develop 262.6 gross acres located at the southeast corner of Cotton Lane and Peoria Avenue (the “Property”). The Property is currently within Maricopa County and will be annexed into Glendale. The City is initiating this rezoning from A-1 to Planned Area Development (“PAD”) to allow development of a new railroad served industrial park and commercial center called “Parkway 303 West” that will utilize existing and future railroad infrastructure and meet demand in the area for rail-served industrial uses. The Applicant seeks to develop the Property in accordance with the commercial and industrial zoning districts and modified development standards to create a superior level of expectation along this expanding transportation corridor. This Parkway 303 West PAD will allow commercial, industrial manufacturing, assembly, employment, distribution, warehousing and other related industrial uses. Rezoning the property to PAD will permit the development of industrial and commercial uses which are compatible with land use trends along the 303 corridor and comply with state statutes concerning territory in the vicinity of a military installation. Parkway 303 West PAD proposes approximately 3.4 million square feet of building facilities. The development plan, which is conceptually only and subject to change, presently shows seventeen (17) buildings ranging in size from 2,000 square feet to 1.08 million square feet to accommodate a broad range of industrial tenants and commercial users.
