A. Introduction and Project Overview
On behalf of Eliseo Guadarrama Ramirez (the Applicant), this application is a request for approval
of a rezone, minor General Plan amendment, Bonus Intensity Zone (BIZ) overlay, and Site Plan
Review for the approximately 0.39 net acre property located at the southwest corner of
University Drive and Longmore, otherwise commonly known as Maricopa County Assessor’s
Parcel Number 135-64-116 (the Property) (See Tab A, Aerial Map). The Property is currently
operated as the San Antonio Tire Shop and was previously utilized for a gas station.
The Property is an undersized parcel that presents numerous development challenges. As
detailed herein, the intent of the BIZ Overlay is to establish site-specific development standards
and design criteria for development and operation of the Property for a high-quality minor auto
repair business. The proposed development will substantially improve the existing condition of
the site and support small business growth within the City of Mesa.
B. Relationship to Adjacent Properties
The Property is bounded by right of way on the north and east. To the north is University Drive,
across which is a strip retail center zoned LC. To the east is Longmore, across which is an existing
auto repair business zoned LC. To the south and west are single-family residential uses zoned RS-
6.

C. General Plan and Zoning
The City of Mesa 2050 General Plan, which was adopted in November 2024, includes substantial
changes to the City’s land use categories and corresponding planning requirements and
guidelines. The updated General Plan Land Use Map designates the Property as Urban Residential
with an Evolve Growth Strategy. (See Tab B, General Plan Map). The Urban Residential placetype
Page 5 of 17
contemplates a diverse mixture of uses where commercial, residential, and public/semi-public
uses co-exist. However, the General Plan classifies the proposed minor auto repair use as
“Convenience Services”, which is not identified as a principal or supporting use in the Urban
Residential placetype. Accordingly, this application requests a minor General Plan amendment to
change the Property’s placetype to Urban Center with an Evolve growth strategy. This change is
consistent with the General Plan amendment criteria as detailed in Section F below.
The Property is also located within the West Main Street Area Plan, the intent of which is to
provide for transit-oriented development that contains mixed use. (See Tab C, Area Plan Map).
However, the Property is located on the northern perimeter of the Area Plan within the
Neighborhood Opportunity Area and is not located within the TOD Station Area or the TOD
Corridor Area. The Property is already zoned for commercial uses and the proposed rezone will
allow for redevelopment of a dilapidated infill site, which is consistent with the goals of the Area
Plan.
The existing zoning for the Property is Office Commercial (OC). (See Tab D, Zoning Map). This
district is intended for small scale medical and professional offices. Given the small size of the
parcel and the parking requirements associated with such uses, the OC district is not practical for
the Property. Accordingly, this application requests to rezone the Property to Limited
Commercial (LC) to accommodate the proposed use.
D. Proposed Development
The Applicant proposes development of the Property with a minor auto repair shop. The
footprint of the building, which is existing and will be repurposed and refurbished, encompasses
approximately 4,015 square feet. (See Tab E, Conceptual Site Plan). The building is located in the
rear half of the property with an existing canopy (dating from the Property’s use as a gas station)
that extends northward towards University Drive. The building features a smooth stucco surface
and a refurbished rectilinear massing that reinforces a professional commercial appearance. The
front (north) elevation incorporates upgraded glazing at the customer entrance and clearly
defined pedestrian access points, giving the building a more aesthetic street presence. (See Tab
F, Conceptual Renderings).
The site design introduces organized parking areas, including striped customer stalls, accessible
parking, and a more efficient circulation pattern for vehicle entry and exit. New landscaping,
including shrubs, trees, decorative gravel areas, and landscape islands, softens the edges of the
site and enhances the curb appeal while better accommodating the City’s modern landscaping
standards. Updated screening elements, including low CMU walls and strategic plant placement,
help buffer operational areas without obstructing visibility or compromising site functionality.
(See Tab G, Landscape Plan).
Page 6 of 17
Primary access to the site is via an entry-only driveway from University Drive. Vehicles exit the
site to Longmore via an exit-only driveway in the southeast corner of the Property. A total of
seven (7) parking spaces are provided with one (1) space designed for ADA compliance. A total
of eleven (11) parking spaces are required per Mesa Zoning Ordinance (MZO) ratios. Accordingly,
a parking reduction is requested as detailed below in Section E.
E. BIZ Overlay
The proposed development shall comply with the applicable MZO development standards for the
LC district, except as modified below. The Project also meets the criteria for the requested BIZ
Overlay by providing Superior Design per Section 11-31-32 of the MZO and addressing
environmental performance standards as detailed below. Though limited substantially by the
Property’s small size and two street frontages, the proposed development takes a responsive
approach to the site and site context to significantly improve the aesthetic and functional
qualities of the Property.
Superior Design
a. High-quality materials, building form, and cohesive site design
The project incorporates high-quality, context appropriate materials and architectural detailing
that create a cohesive and visually distinctive development. The existing building will be fully
refurbished with smooth stucco finishes, upgraded glazing, and refreshed architectural detailing
that reinforce a clean and professional commercial appearance.
The design integrates public art with a desert landscape mural along the Longmore frontage,
which adds visual interest, reinforces local character, and creates a recognizable identity for the
corner. The mural, combined with enhanced landscaping, decorative screening walls, and
updated architectural finishes, creates a significantly enhanced site design.
b. Compatibility with character of surrounding area and creation of a sense of place
The project reflects the existing development pattern along this section of University Drive, which
consists primarily of small-scale commercial and some automotive service uses serving adjacent
neighborhoods. The proposed improvements elevate the architectural and landscape quality of
the site while maintaining compatibility with adjacent development.
The redevelopment also incorporates design features that contribute to a unique sense of place,
including the custom mural, enhanced street landscaping, and improved pedestrian interface
along both street frontages.
c. Site design, architecture, and landscaping features that address local climate
Page 7 of 17
The site design incorporates several features that respond to the desert climate and promote
pedestrian comfort and sustainability. The existing canopy structure, which will be retained and
refurbished, provides shade coverage that reduces summer sun exposure for vehicles and
pedestrians within the site. A shaded customer waiting area with seating is also provided at the
building entrance to create a comfortable space for customers.
The landscape design emphasizes low-water-use desert-adapted plant materials, including native
trees, shrubs, and drought-tolerant ground cover that minimize irrigation demand while
enhancing the visual quality of the site. The redevelopment also repurposes the existing building
rather than demolishing it, reducing construction waste and supporting the City’s goals for
adaptive reuse and sustainable infill development.
d. Design features exceeding minimum ordinance standards
Although several development standards are modified through the BIZ overlay due to the unique
constraints of the property, the project nonetheless exceeds the qualitative design objectives of
the Mesa Zoning Ordinance through significant site and architectural upgrades. The
redevelopment introduces:
• Substantial new landscaping and streetscape improvements along both street
frontages
• Decorative screening walls and landscape buffering to soften operational areas
• Public art and architectural enhancements not required by code
• Improved site organization and circulation compared to the existing condition
Collectively, these elements produce a significantly higher-quality built environment than
currently exists on the property and demonstrate the enhanced design approach contemplated
by the BIZ overlay.
e. Attractive and comfortable pedestrian environment
The redevelopment significantly improves the pedestrian experience along the street frontages
and within the site by introducing new landscaping, shade elements, pedestrian seating, and a
visually engaging streetscape anchored by the Longmore mural.
Low masonry screening walls combined with landscaping help define the street edge while
maintaining visibility and safety. The pedestrian pathway connecting the building entrance to the
public sidewalk provides clear and convenient access for customers arriving on foot.
These improvements create a more attractive and comfortable environment for pedestrians,
replacing the current underutilized and visually degraded site with a welcoming commercial
corner.
Environmental Performance Standards
The project incorporates several design elements that reduce environmental impacts while
supporting sustainable site development consistent with Section 11-21-3(B)(2) of the MZO.
Page 8 of 17
a. Site Selection – Redevelopment of Economically Distressed Property
The project represents the redevelopment and rehabilitation of an aging commercial property,
originally developed as a gas station. The proposed investment revitalizes a long-standing
commercial corner that has experienced physical deterioration and underinvestment. Through
building refurbishment, site improvements, landscaping upgrades, and architectural
enhancements, the project transforms a commercial property into a productive and attractive
neighborhood-serving business, consistent with the ordinance’s encouragement of
redevelopment and reinvestment in existing developed areas.
b. Bicycle storage
The site design provides safe and convenient bicycle parking located near the building entrance,
allowing customers and employees arriving by bicycle to securely store bicycles within a short
and direct walking distance of the building entrance.
c. Restoration with native or adapted vegetation
The Property is a previously developed commercial site, formerly used as a gas station and later
as a commercial service use. The proposed redevelopment includes substantial new landscaping
with native and desert-adapted vegetation, including trees, shrubs, and ground cover materials
appropriate to the environment. These improvements replace existing underutilized and
minimally landscaped areas with enhanced planting areas that soften the visual character of the
site and create a more attractive environment for customers and pedestrians.
BIZ OVERLAY TABLE
LC Development Standards
Proposed Standard
Justification
Parking Area Design –
MZO Section 11-32-4(A)
-Minimum 50’ setback for
parking spaces along main drive
aisles connecting directly to a
street and drive aisles that
cross such main drive aisles
12’-10”
The small scale of this site makes
compliance with this standard
practically infeasible. The Property
is only 133’ by 125’ and providing
a 50’ setback would severely limit
the developable area. The
proposed standard allows for
productive use of the Property
with an efficient parking and
circulation plan.
Parking Reduction –
MZO Section 11-32-3
-
General Auto Repair (1/375
sf)
11 parking spaces required
4 parking spaces provided (includes 1
ADA space)
See additional discussion below.
Page 9 of 17
Parking Lot Landscape Islands
MZO Section 11-33-4(B)
-
Parking lot landscape
islands required at each end
of a row of stalls. Minimum
dimensions: 8’ wide and 15’
long
4 landscape islands provided in
varying sizes
Though parking lot landscaping is
provided with trees and shrubs, it
is impossible to achieve the full
landscape island dimensions per
the MZO without severely limiting
site circulation and functionality.
Building/Parking Area Setback –
MZO Section 11-6-3.A
-Minimum 15’ (Front- North)
-Minimum 25’ (Side adjacent RS
- West)
-Minimum 25’ (Rear adjacent
RS - South)
-Minimum 15’(Street facing
side - east)
North: 15’ to parking lot
West: 5’-1” to parking lot
23'-2" to building
South: 22'-3" to building
East: 10'-8" to building
14’-6” to parking lot
Because the existing building will
remain and be repurposed,
achieving the full setbacks
required by the MZO is not
feasible on this small infill site. The
proposed setbacks accommodate
the practical limitations of the site
and enable adequate parking and
circulation. Nevertheless, the
proposed redevelopment will
drastically improve the existing
site conditions and create a more
attractive streetscape while
maintaining adequate buffers
from adjacent uses.
Landscape Setback Adjacent RS
or RSL district–
MZO Section 11-33-3(B)(1)
-
Minimum 20’ required
Varies - 5’-0” to 5’-8”
Foundation Base –
MZO Section 11-33-5(A)(1)
-Required 15 feet along
exterior wall with public
entrance
0’
Given the nature of the proposed
use, the location of the existing
building, and the location of the
drive aisles and pedestrian
connections, the minimum
foundation base required by code
is not achievable on all elevations.
A shaded customer waiting area
with seating is provided at the
building entrance and landscaping
provided in the parking area and
along the street frontages will
provide an aesthetic customer
experience. Notably, the provided
percentage of landscape material
exceeds the minimum required in
the foundation bases provided on
the south, east, and west
elevations. The east elevation also
Foundation Base –
MZO Section 11-33-5(A)(2)
-Required 5 feet along exterior
wall with no public entrance
West: 4’-10”
East: 11’2”
South: 2’-10”
Plant Material in Foundation
Base –
MZO Section 11-33-5(B)(3)(a)
Landscape area equal in length
to 33% of adjacent exterior wall
visible from right of way or
public parking area
No landscape area provided in
foundation base visible from right of
way or public parking area along
north elevation
Page 10 of 17
provides an enhanced foundation
base.
Minimum Lot Size – Minor
Automobile/Vehicle Service
and Repair
MZO Section 11-31-6
- Minimum 1 acre required
0.39 acres
The project’s scale, design, and
operational characteristics are
compatible with surrounding
commercial uses and will not
create any functional or aesthetic
impacts that a larger site would
otherwise mitigate. Granting this
relief allows productive reuse of
an existing small lot while
advancing the City’s goals for
reinvestment, small‐business
support, and revitalization of older
commercial corridors.
Bay Door Screening -
MZO Section 11-30-9(F)(2)
-
When bay doors are less
than 200’ from an adjacent
street and less than
perpendicular to street, 6’
screen wall required
3’ 4” screen wall provided along
University Drive
Because the project is repurposing
the existing building and
University Drive driveway, a 6’
screen wall along the frontage is
not practical without impacting
site visibility, access, and
circulation. The provided screen
wall and landscaping will improve
the current condition and ensure
sufficient site aesthetics
Screen Wall Setback –
MZO Section 11-30-(H)(7)
-
Minimum 10’ setback
required between screen
wall and right of way
0’
The Property’s small size and two
street frontages make
conformance with this standard
impractical. The provided
landscaping and low screen wall
ensure adequate separation and
drastically improves the current
condition.
One-Way Drive Aisle Width –
MZO Section 11-32-2(J)
- one way drive aisles that do
no provide access to parking
spaces must be at least 12-feet
wide
11’-9”
The proposed minor deviation
allows for improved site
circulation while enabling adaptive
reuse of the existing building.
Page 11 of 17
Pedestrian Connection –
MZO Section 11-30-8(A)
-
On-site walkway required
from primary entry to
public sidewalk on each
street frontage
5’ wide pedestrian walkway provided
from public entrance to public
sidewalk on Longmore
With only approximately 260’ of
street frontage, the 5’ wide
walkway from Longmore provides
adequate pedestrian access
without further limiting site
functionality.
Parking Reduction
The proposed use requires a limited number of employees on-site at any given time. Typical
staffing levels include two to three technicians and one service manager or owner. Customer
visitation is short in duration, staggered throughout the day, and generally limited to drop-offs
and pick-ups rather than extended stays. Most customers leave their vehicles on-site temporarily
for service rather than remaining parked for extended periods. Because the nature of the use
does not generate high customer turnover or prolonged customer parking demand, the practical
parking needs of the business are substantially lower than the typical ratios applied to higher-
intensity commercial uses. The four (4) provided spaces (including one ADA space) sufficiently
accommodate both employees and customer turnover.
The Property is also constrained, with only 0.39 net acres and two street frontages. These
conditions severely limit where parking can be located while still maintaining safe site circulation,
required landscape buffers, access spacing requirements, and separation between pedestrian
and vehicle movements. Achieving the full required number of parking spaces would necessitate
redesigning the site in a way that would compromise circulation, eliminate required landscaping,
or create unsafe vehicular access patterns. The BIZ overlay is explicitly intended to resolve such
site-specific constraints by allowing flexibility while still achieving safe and functional design
outcomes.
F. General Plan Amendment Criteria
1. Whether the proposed amendment will result in a shortage of land or other planned uses,
such as, whether the change will result in a substantial and undesirable reduction in the
amount of available land for employment.
The Property is already zoned for non-residential uses and the proposed General Plan
amendment and rezone will not change that. The existing Urban Residential placetype
contemplates a diverse mixture of uses where commercial, residential, and public/semi-public
uses co-exist. The amendment will simply allow for a broader range of neighborhood commercial
services available under the Urban Center placetype, including Convenience Services. The Urban
Center placetype is prominent in the broader vicinity of the Property, most notably along Main
Street.
Page 12 of 17
2. Whether events after the adoption of the General Plan have changed the character or
condition of the area, making the proposed amendment appropriate.
The proposed use is compatible with the character of the area, as evidenced by similar existing
uses in the immediate vicinity. The proposed LC zoning district and specific use were compatible
with the Property’s General Plan character type in the 2040 General Plan, which was the General
Plan of record when this entitlement process began. The proposed amendment will simply
continue to permit the compatible uses.
3. The degree to which the proposed amendment will impact the whole community or a portion
of the community by:
a. Altering acceptable existing land use patterns in a significant way that is contrary to
the Vision, Guiding Principles, or Strategies identified in the General Plan.
The proposed amendment will not significantly alter the land use patterns in the area.
The Property is already designated for non-residential uses. However, the small size of
the parcel makes it incompatible with the uses contemplated by its existing zoning. The
proposed amendment will simply allow a broader range of neighborhood commercial
uses, including “Convenience Services”. These uses are appropriate along a major arterial
road such as University Drive.
b. Requiring larger or more extensive improvements to roads, sewer, or water systems
than are necessary to support the prevailing land uses which may negatively impact
development of other lands.
The Property is less than one half of an acre and the scope of the proposed
development and corresponding general plan amendment will not require any
improvements to existing infrastructure.
c. Adversely impacting existing uses due to increased traffic congestion that is not
accommodated by planned roadway improvements or other planned transportation
improvements such as nonmotorized transportation alternatives and transit.
As described above, the small scale of the Property and the proposed use will not cause
any meaningful increases in traffic or adversely impact any existing uses.
4. Whether the proposed amendment is consistent with the Vision, Guiding Principles, or
Strategies of the General Plan.
The proposed amendment is consistent with the following Guiding Principles and Strategies in
the General Plan:
Page 13 of 17
Guiding Principle: Our Economy is Innovative and Prosperous
Strategy ED2: Sustain a business climate that fosters entrepreneurs and small businesses.
The proposed General Plan amendment directly supports Strategy ED2 by facilitating the
operation and long-term viability of a locally owned small business. The San Antonio Tire Shop is
owned and operated by a local business owner and provides neighborhood-serving automotive
services and local employment within an established commercial corridor. Allowing the Property
to transition from the Urban Residential to the Urban Center placetype ensures that this small,
service-oriented business, operating on a uniquely constrained parcel, can remain competitive
and continue contributing to Mesa’s economic diversity.
The requested rezone and BIZ overlay enable reinvestment and revitalization of this commercial
corner. Supporting the reinvestment of capital into site upgrades, façade improvements, and
landscaping, the City is affirming its commitment to creating an environment where small
businesses can modernize, operate safely, and thrive. This approach is fully consistent with the
General Plan’s emphasis on cultivating homegrown businesses and removing barriers to
entrepreneurial success.
Guiding Principle: Our Neighborhoods are Vibrant, Diverse, and Safe Places Where Our People
Thrive.
Strategy N2: Promote adaptive reuse and infill as tools to rejuvenate and revitalize established
neighborhoods.
The Property is a small parcel with unique challenges that limit its development potential. It was
previously developed as a gas station and later housed a commercial carpet wholesaling business.
Rather than leaving the aging structure underutilized or pursuing demolition for speculative
redevelopment, the Applicant proposes to repurpose, refurbish, and significantly upgrade the
existing building and surrounding site development.
The project improves the appearance, function, and compatibility of the site through enhanced
landscaping, new screening, improved circulation, pedestrian-oriented features, and
professional façade treatments, including a new mural on the Longmore frontage. These
investments revitalize a long-standing commercial corner and eliminate blighted conditions while
maintaining a scale appropriate to the surrounding residential and commercial context. The
proposed redevelopment will provide a more attractive streetscape along University Drive.
Guiding Principle: Our City Offers Integrated and Balanced Land Uses with a Variety of
Neighborhoods and Business Opportunities
Strategy LU2: Encourage inifill and redevelopment to meet the community’s strategic needs.
Page 14 of 17
The Property is less than half an acre and constrained by two street frontages. Thus, it is not well
suited for the types of residential or office uses contemplated under the Urban Residential
placetype. Redevelopment of such a site requires flexible zoning tools to unlock its economic
potential and accommodate physical constraints.
The project provides a strategic infill solution by modernizing an existing commercial building,
improving site conditions, and delivering a conveniently located, neighborhood-serving business
along a major arterial. It also prevents the parcel from becoming underutilized or falling into
disrepair, which is an outcome the General Plan seeks to avoid through proactive infill and
reinvestment policies.
By enabling a meaningful upgrade to an existing commercial corner without requiring additional
infrastructure or expansion into adjacent residential areas, the amendment supports a more
efficient land-use pattern and reinforces the City’s commitment to sustainable redevelopment.
5. Whether the proposed amendment constitutes an overall improvement to the General Plan
and the City of Mesa.
The proposed amendment constitutes an overall improvement to the General Plan by aligning
the Property’s placetype designation with its physical characteristics, historic use, and
surrounding land-use context. The existing Urban Residential designation does not reflect the
long-established commercial pattern along University Drive nor the constrained size and
configuration of the parcel, which make it unsuitable for residential or office-centered intensities.
Shifting the placetype to Urban Center more accurately captures the Property’s existing role as a
neighborhood-serving commercial site and permits a realistic range of uses that can operate
successfully on such a uniquely constrained parcel.
6. The extent to which the benefits of the proposed amendment outweigh any of the impacts
identified by these criteria.
The benefits of the proposed amendment substantially outweigh any potential impacts. The
project enables meaningful reinvestment in an aging commercial property, supports a locally
owned business, improves streetscape aesthetics, upgrades landscaping and screening, and
preserves an appropriate buffer between commercial activity and adjacent single-family homes.
The proposed use is small in scale, generates minimal traffic, and is compatible with both the
existing zoning pattern and surrounding land uses, including other commercial and auto-service
businesses along University Drive.
No public infrastructure improvements are required, and the project does not adversely impact
traffic flow, utility capacity, or neighborhood character.
Page 15 of 17
G. Adherence with Site Plan Review Criteria
The Project has been designed to adhere to the Site Plan Review (SPR) criteria specifically
noted in Ordinance Section 11-69-5.A as follows:
A. The project is consistent with and conforms to the adopted General Plan and any
applicable sub-area or neighborhood area plans (except no analysis of the use if it is
permitted in the zoning district on the property), is consistent with the development
standards of this Ordinance, and is consistent with and meets the intent of any applicable
design guidelines.
Response: The proposed development is consistent with the requested Urban Center
place type and the Main Street Area Plan. The project provides a strategic infill solution
by modernizing an existing commercial building, improving site conditions, and delivering
a conveniently located, neighborhood-serving business along a major arterial.
B. The project is consistent with all conditions of approval imposed on the property whether
by ordinance, resolution or otherwise.
Response: The Project will comply with all conditions of approval associated with the
requested rezone and BIZ Overlay.
C. The overall design of the project, including but not limited to the site layout, architecture
of the buildings or structures, scale, massing, exterior design, landscaping, lighting, and
signage, will enhance the appearance and features of the site and surrounding natural
and built environment.
Response: The project enables meaningful reinvestment in an aging commercial
property, supports a locally owned business, improves streetscape aesthetics, upgrades
landscaping and screening, and preserves an appropriate buffer between commercial
activity and adjacent single-family homes.
D. The site plan is appropriate to the function of the project and will provide a suitable
environment for occupants, visitors, and the general community.
Response: The site plan vastly improves the existing appearance and functionality of the
Property. The site design is appropriate for the proposed use and will provide a quality
environment for customers and employees.
E. Project details, colors, materials, and landscaping are internally consistent, fully
integrated with one another, and used in a manner that is visually consistent with the
proposed architectural design.
Page 16 of 17
Response: The Project provides details, colors, materials, and landscaping that are
internally consistent and integrated in a manner visually consistent with the architectural
design, creating a cohesive aesthetic throughout.
F. The project is compatible with neighboring development by avoiding big differences in
building scale and character between developments on adjoining lots in the same zoning
district and providing a harmonious transition in scale and character between different
districts.
Response: The project maintains appropriate scale at this commercial corner in a manner
compatible with the existing commercial development along University Drive. It also
maintains a scale appropriate to the surrounding residential to the south and east.
G. The project contributes to the creation of a visually interesting built environment that
includes a variety of building styles and designs with well-articulated structures that
present well designed building facades, rooflines, and building heights within a unifying
context that encourages increased pedestrian activity and promotes compatibility among
neighboring land uses within the same or different districts.
Response: The project improves the appearance, function, and compatibility of the site
through improved landscaping, new screening, improved circulation, pedestrian-oriented
features, and professional façade treatments, including a new mural on the Longmore
frontage. These investments revitalize a long-standing commercial corner and eliminate
blighted conditions while maintaining a scale appropriate to the surrounding residential
and commercial context. The proposed redevelopment will provide a more attractive
streetscape along University Drive.
H. The streetscapes, including street trees, lighting, and pedestrian furniture, are consistent
with the character of activity centers, commercial districts, and nearby residential
neighborhoods.
Response: Street trees, lighting, and pedestrian amenities will be incorporated as part of
the project’s frontage improvements to create a cohesive and attractive streetscape.
These elements will complement existing features along University Drive and enhance the
pedestrian experience for nearby residents and businesses. Together, these
enhancements ensure the project’s streetscape is consistent with the visual and
functional quality of the development.
I. Street frontages are attractive and interesting for pedestrians and provide for greater
safety by allowing for surveillance of the street by people inside buildings and elsewhere.
Response: The proposed redevelopment will provide a more attractive streetscape along
both University Drive and Longmore. Improved landscaping and site design, including the
Page 17 of 17
installation of a new mural along Longmore, will create more interesting pedestrian
experience.
J. The proposed landscaping plan is suitable for the type of project and site conditions and
will improve the appearance of the community by enhancing the building and site design;
and the landscape plan incorporates plant materials that are drought-tolerant, will
minimize water usage, and are compatible with Mesa's climate.
Response: The landscape design features native desert plants and appropriate trees,
shrubs, and ground cover materials to accentuate the natural environment. The plants
require minimal irrigation beyond establishment, and as native varieties should thrive
with naturally occurring rainfall. Parking areas are screened with patterned masonry walls
and landscape trees and shrubs.
H. Summary
This proposed rezone and BIZ Overlay represents an opportunity for reinvestment in a
challenging property, transforming a dilapidated and underutilized site into a productive small-
business operation. By activating the parcel with a locally owned service use, the project supports
Mesa’s small-business economy and adds skilled employment opportunities to the area. The
redevelopment will revitalize the Property with a clean, functional design that enhances curb
appeal and the character of this corridor.
