Project Overview 
Request: 
The applicant is requesting approval for a rezoning for 0.4+ acre from OC to LC with a BIZ Overlay 
and Site Plan Review for a 4,015 square foot minor automobile repair development (Proposed 
Project).  
Concurrent Applications: 
 
Minor General Plan Amendment: A Planning and Zoning Board hearing is scheduled for 
May 13, 2026, to review the request for a Minor General Plan Amendment for the 0.4+ acre 
project site from Urban Residential with an Evolve Growth Strategy to Urban Center with 
an Evolve Growth Strategy. The Minor General Plan Amendment will proceed concurrently 
with this request (GPA26-00111). 
Site Context 
General Plan:  
 
The Placetype for the project site is currently Urban Residential and the Growth Strategy 
is Evolve. 
 
Convenience Services land use, which includes minor automotive/vehicle service and 
repair facilities, is not identified as a principal or secondary land use in the Urban 
Residential Placetype. 
 
A Minor General Plan Amendment is requested concurrently with this request to change 
the Placetype Designation from Urban Residential with an Evolve Growth Strategy to 
Urban Center with and Evolve Growth Strategy. 
 
The purpose of the Urban Center Placetype is to be compact mixed-use areas where many 
people live, work, and play and are typically located adjacent to transit or major arterials. 
Urban Centers contain retail, personal services, public/semi-public uses, entertainment 
and recreation facilities, eating and drinking establishments, and convenience services. 
The Proposed Project is classified under the 2050 Mesa General Plan as convenience 
services, and is located on a corner site, fronting West University Drive, an arterial roadway, 
across from other retail and convenience services.  
 
The Proposed Project is consistent with the Urban Center Placetype and furthers the 
implementation of, and is not contrary to, the Vision, Guiding Principles, Strategies, and 
applicable elements of the Mesa 2050 General Plan. 
 
Supporting General Plan Strategies: 
o N2. Promote adaptive reuse and infill as tools to rejuvenate and revitalize established 
neighborhoods.

[3] 
o LU2. Create opportunities for placemaking in neighborhoods that reinforce their unique 
character and sense of place. 
o LU3. Encourage infill and redevelopment to meet the community’s strategic needs. 
Sub-Area Plan: 
 
The Proposed Project is located within the Neighborhood Opportunity Area of the West 
Main Street Area Plan. 
 
The West Main Street Area Plan purpose is not only to provide for the increased needs of 
the community, but also to create a place that will continue to represent its people and 
community. Elements of placemaking, including people and values, integrated land uses, 
and street life, should be incorporated to enhance the sense of place. 
 
The Proposed Project is consistent with the West Main Street Area Plan because it will 
enhance the existing environment, build upon existing activities and enhance new 
development by contributing to a mixed-use setting, and by projecting the neighborhood 
identity through an enhanced streetscape. 
Zoning:  
 
The project site is zoned Office Commercial (OC). 
 
The applicant is requesting to rezone the site to Limited Commercial with a Bonus Intensity 
Zone Overlay (LC-BIZ). 
 
Minor Automobile Service and Repair is a permitted use within the LC District and is subject 
to the additional development standards for Automobile, Vehicle Repair, Major and Minor 
in Section 11-31-6. 
Surrounding Zoning & Use Activity: 
The proposed Minor Automobile Service and Repair Facility is compatible with surrounding land 
uses, which include places of worship, medical offices, motels, and vacant land.

Site History: 
 
July 21, 1958: City Council annexed 706.3± acres, including the project site, into the City 
of Mesa (Ordinance No. 358). 
 
Staff has been unable to locate additional case history at the project site. On May 17, 1982, 
City Council approved a rezoning of the 1.7 acres site north of the project site, across West 
University Drive, from C-1 to C-2 (Case No. Z82-027, Ordinance No. 1597). This case 
shows the project site as being zoned C-1.    
Project/Request Details 
Site Plan: 
 
Building Design: The 4,015 square foot Minor Automobile Service and Repair facility is a 
single-story structure situated on the southern portion of the site. Along the north side of 
the building is the main entrance, bay doors, and a 320 square-foot customer-waiting area 
with a pedestrian path, leading out to the public sidewalk along University Drive, shaded 
by an existing canopy.  
 
Access: The site currently has four driveways; two on University Drive and two along 
Longmore. The Proposed Project includes closing the larger, northernmost driveway 
access on Longmore and the easternmost driveway on University Drive. The remaining 
drive on University Drive will then become entry only and the remaining drive on Longmore 
exit only.   
 
Parking: Per Table 11-32-3.A of the Mesa Zoning Ordinance (MZO), 11 parking spaces are 
required. The applicant is proposing 4 parking spaces as part of the BIZ request.  
 
Landscaping: Landscaped areas are located along the perimeter of the site as well as 
across the sides and rear of the building. The applicants are requesting modifications to 
the landscaping requirements under the BIZ request as described below. 
 
Minor Automobile/Vehicle Service and Repair Requirements: The Minor Automobile 
Service and Repair land use has additional development standards in Section 11-31-6 of 
the MZO. The minimum lot size of this use shall be one acre and auto service bays shall 
be screened per Section 11-30-9(F). Due to the size of the existing lot and the orientation 
of the existing building, the applicants are requesting modifications to these standards in 
the BIZ request. The Proposed Project does include a new 40-inch-high CMU breeze block 
screen wall along University Drive and Longmore to screening the parking areas as 
required per Section 11-30-9(H), and litter and noise requirements will be met as outlined 
in the Good Neighbor Policy (Exhibit 8). 
 
Bonus Intensity Zone Overlay:

[5] 
Per Section 11-21 of the MZO, the purpose of a BIZ Overlay is to provide for variation from the 
application of residential densities and other development standards to allow greater intensity of 
development and encourage unique, innovative developments of superior quality. The BIZ 
Overlay must demonstrate that the resulting development will further the goals and objectives of 
the General Plan, Specific Plans, and Council policies and will provide significant social or 
economic benefits to the City.

Per MZO Section 11-21-3(B), the City Council may approve modifications to the underlying district 
standards proportionate to the number of items and degree of compliance for projects that comply 
with a combination of the criteria for the BIZ. This includes a combination of either: 
 
Criteria (1) Providing distinctive, superior quality designs (See Section 11-31-32, 
Superior Design) and Criteria (2) Addressing environmental performance standards; 
or 
 
Criteria (1) Providing distinctive, superior quality designs (See Section 11-31-32, 
Superior Design) and Criteria (3) Providing documented evidence that the 
building(s) will meet or exceed nationally recognized environmental performance 
standards. For purposes of this criterion, buildings that are designed to earn Green

[8] 
Globes, LEED™ Silver, or to be in compliance with the International Green 
Construction Code and/or equivalent third-party criteria, are considered to be 
energy efficient and no higher standard shall be required.  
Projects with fewer modifications will comply with a lower percentage of the criteria requirements 
in their request for the BIZ Overlay. Projects with a higher number, and greater deviation from, the 
adopted standards are required to comply with a higher percentage of criteria in their request for 
the BIZ Overlay. 
The following summarizes an evaluation of each criteria for the BIZ Overlay request. 
1. Provide distinctive, superior quality designs. (See Section 11-31-32, Superior Design) 
Per MZO Section 11-31-32, for a project to reflect Superior Design it will incorporate 
all of the following elements: 
A. Holistic Approach to Project Design. Varied, high-quality, regionally-appropriate 
building materials, used in distinctive building forms, building massing and detailing 
that result in a note-worthy example of holistic site design, architecture, 
landscaping and signage; and  
The Proposed Project incorporates high-quality, context appropriate 
materials and architectural detailing that creates a cohesive and visually 
distinctive development. The upgrades to the building, including a custom 
mural and decorative CMU breeze block wall, contributes to an overall high-
quality project. The landscaping was designed to incorporate low-water-use 
xerophytic species, including cacti and other arid-adapted plants, that 
conserve resources while reflecting the site’s overall modernist, mid-century 
design. 
B. Responsive Approach to Site and Sub-Area Context. Architectural and 
landscape architecture details and features that reflect the character defined in 
Sub-Area Plans or the General Plan's Placetype urban design characteristics, that 
are harmonious with adjacent development patterns, integrate with the physical 
conditions of the immediate site, and create a unique sense of place; and  
The Proposed 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, including the custom mural, 
decorative CMU breeze block wall, desert landscaping, and improved 
vehicular and pedestrian circulation, elevate the architectural and landscape 
quality, contributing to a unique sense of place, while maintaining 
compatibility with adjacent development. 
C. Sustainable Design. Site design, architecture and landscaping features that 
address the local climate to reduce summer sun penetration and provide summer 
sunshade protection for pedestrians, promote energy and water conservation, 
promote the preservation or creation of open space, provide for and encourage the 
use of multiple modes of transportation, utilize existing infrastructure, and create 
the opportunity for social interaction; and

[9] 
The Proposed Project incorporates several features that respond to the 
desert climate and promote pedestrian comfort and sustainability. The 
existing canopy structure, which will be retained and painted a project 
appropriate Blue Bauble color, will be used to create an open space for 
customers to wait. It will provide shade coverage for the customer waiting 
area outside of the building’s entrance and shade the pedestrian path that 
leads out to the public sidewalk on W University Drive. The landscaping 
emphasizes low-water-use species that are native and regionally adapted 
reinforcing the desert character, enhancing biodiversity, and reducing 
maintenance requirements. 
D. Exceeds Standards. Provision of details and features that exceed the criteria and 
standards specified in Sections 11-5-3, 11-5-5, 11-6-43, 11-6-4 (as applicable), 11-
7-3, 11-8-5, 11-8-6 and Chapters 30 through 34, where applicable; and 
The Proposed Project exceeds the design objectives of the MZO by 
providing a custom mural on the east elevation along Longmore, which is 
not required by code, and by providing a highly decorative, breeze block 
parking screen wall, both of which contribute to an enhanced overall look on 
the project site. More than the required number of shrubs are also being 
provided along both street frontages and include, but not limited to, a mix of 
Octopus Agave, Organ Pipe, Parry’s Agave, and Golden Barrel Cactus. 
E. Great Public Spaces. Details and features that create attractive, comfortable 
environments for pedestrians; ensure safe, useful and well-integrated open or 
public spaces; and include high quality amenities. 
The Proposed Project includes well-designed open space that enhances the 
pedestrian and customer experience. The existing canopy will provide year-
round shade and weather protection, and the addition of a 3-inch raised path 
on site will contribute to a safe pedestrian experience. The closing of the 
northernmost driveway out to Longmore and the easternmost along 
University Drive will also allow for a safer, more organized, and usable 
parking area, contributing to the overall comfort for visitors to the project 
site. 
Based on the above discussion, staff finds that the Proposed Project complies with 
Criteria 1 required for approval of a BIZ overlay. 
2. Address environmental performance standards outlined below: 
a. Site selection criteria. Sites shall meet one or more of the following criteria. 
i. 
Redevelop and rehabilitate economically distressed properties (particularly 
greyfield sites), damaged sites or environmentally contaminated ‘brownfield’ sites. 
The Proposed 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 
through 
the 
proposed

[10] 
improvements, will transform the property into a productive and attractive 
neighborhood-serving business. 
The Proposed Project meets this Criteria. 
ii. Utilize areas with existing utility and transportation infrastructure and existing 
community services. This criterion is preferred for higher density and higher 
intensity development, when feasible.  
The site has access to City of Mesa utilities and direct access to West 
University Drive and North Longmore which include public sidewalks that 
connect the proposed development to adjacent commercial developments 
and residential neighborhoods. 
The Proposed Project meets this Criteria. 
iii. Utilize locations within ½ mile of a planned light rail line or ¼ mile from an existing 
or planned bus stop. This criterion is preferred for higher density and higher 
intensity development, when feasible. 
The Proposed Project is not within ½ mile of a planned light rail line or ¼ 
mile from an existing or planned bus stop. 
The Proposed Project does not meet this Criteria. 
b. Site design criteria. Designing the site to facilitate alternative modes of transportation 
and to reduce onsite environmental impacts.  
i. 
Provide safe and secure storage for bicycles. For commercial, employment or 
institutional projects, bicycle storage areas shall be within 200 yards of the building 
entrance and shall have a designated and convenient pedestrian access route 
connecting the storage area to the building. 
The Proposed Project provides safe and convenient bicycle parking, 
allowing customers and employees to securely store bicycles within a short, 
approximately 10 feet, and direct walking distance of the building entrance. 
The storage is directly accessible from pedestrian path on site that lead to 
both street frontages. 
The Proposed Project meets this Criteria. 
ii.   Include priority location parking for low-emission vehicles in parking areas. 
The Proposed Project does not include priority parking for low emission 
vehicles. 
The Proposed Project does not meet this Criteria. 
iii. Provide priority location parking spaces for carpool or vanpool vehicles. 
The proposed development does not identify priority parking locations for 
carpool or vanpool vehicles on the site plan. 
The Proposed Project does not meet this Criteria. 
iv. Provide the number of parking spaces designed to serve a development site 
consistent with the number of spaces required to meet the minimum parking ratio. 
Parking spaces over the minimum number is discouraged.

[11] 
Per Table 11-32-3A of the MZO, 11 parking spaces are required for the 
proposed development. The site plan submitted shows 4 parking spaces 
being provided on site. The reduction in parking is requested in this BIZ. 
The Proposed Project does not meet this Criteria. 
v. For greenfield sites, protect or restore natural areas on site with native vegetation 
to encourage biodiversity and for enjoyment by people. For previously developed 
sites, restore areas with native or adapted vegetation to encourage biodiversity 
and for enjoyment by people. The size of the space should be appropriate for the 
size of the site and the activity level or use of the site. 
       The current site, and many of the surrounding commercial sites, have 
underutilized, minimally landscaped, or missing landscape areas. The 
Proposed Project will redevelop existing landscape areas and create new, 
enhanced landscape yards throughout the site. This includes closing in the 
northernmost driveway along Longmore and the easternmost driveway 
along University Drive to create a landscape area that defines the corner, 
creating a landscape yard between the building and right-of-way along the 
east elevation, and adding foundation base landscaping along the west and 
south elevations where storage used to be. The landscape plan incorporates 
low-water-use xerophytic species, including cacti and other arid-adapted 
plants. The landscaping emphasizes the preservation and integration of 
native and regionally adapted species and existing native vegetation is 
preserved where feasible and complemented by supplemental plantings 
selected to reinforce the desert character, enhance biodiversity, and reduce 
maintenance requirements. 
The Proposed Project meets this Criteria. 
vi.  Design the project to be energy efficient including, but not limited to, designed to 
reduce summer heat gain, reduce winter heat loss, utilize day lighting strategies 
and provide the opportunity for occupants to take advantage of renewable energy. 
The design also mitigates the effects of solar exposure for users and pedestrians. 
For purposes of this criterion, buildings that have efficient HVAC systems, 
incorporate passive solar heating, cooling and day lighting strategies within an 
efficient building envelope, as recommended by the Department of Energy's 
Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) section, including buildings 
designed to earn the EPA ENERGY STAR or designed to meet LEED™ Silver or 
equivalent third-party criteria are considered to be energy efficient and no higher 
standard shall be used 
The architectural design proposed includes shaded walkways and 
pedestrian entries, which help to mitigate the effects of solar exposure for 
employees and visitors to the site. 
The Proposed Project meets this Criteria. 
c. Provide documented evidence that the building(s) will meet or exceed nationally 
recognized environmental performance standards. For purposes of this criterion, 
buildings that are designed to earn LEED™ Silver, Green Globes, and/or equivalent 
third-party criteria, and no higher standard shall be required. Avoid sites considered 
inappropriate, such as prime farmland, land identified as habitat for endangered 
species, and wetlands or riparian areas associated with wildlife.

[12] 
The building on the site exists and is not designed to LEED standards. 
             The Proposed Project does not this Criteria. 
d. Utilize areas with existing utility and transportation infrastructure and existing 
community services. This criterion is preferred for higher density and higher intensity 
development, when feasible. 
The site is in close proximity to existing utility infrastructure and is located on 
an existing commercial site. 
The Proposed Project meets this Criteria. 
e. Redevelop and rehabilitate economically distressed properties (particularly greyfield 
sites), damaged sites or environmentally contaminated 'brownfield' sites. 
The Proposed 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 through the proposed improvements, will transform 
the property into a productive and attractive neighborhood-serving business. 
The Proposed Project meets this Criteria. 
f. Utilize locations within ½ mile of a planned light rail line or ¼ mile from an existing or 
planned bus stop. This criterion is preferred for higher density and higher intensity 
development, when feasible. 
The Proposed Project is located approximately 200 feet from an eastbound bus 
stop located on University Drive and approximately 80 feet from a westbound 
bus stop located on the north side of University Drive.  
             The Proposed Project meets this Criteria. 
3. Provide documented evidence that the building(s) will meet or exceed nationally 
recognized environmental performance standards. For purposes of this criterion, buildings 
that are designed to earn Green Globes, LEED™ Silver, or to be in compliance with the 
International Green Construction Code and/or equivalent third-party criteria, are 
considered to be energy efficient and no higher standard shall be required. 
The building on the site exists and is not designed to LEED standards. 
The Proposed Project does not this Criteria. 
Based on the above analysis, staff finds that the Proposed Project is consistent with the purpose 
of a BIZ overlay as outlined in MZO Section 11-21 and meets criteria 1 and 2 of Section 11-21-
3(B) by providing distinctive, superior quality designs and addressing environmental 
performance standards.
