General Plan
The General Plan Land Use Element designates this site as Rural Neighborhoods. This designation 
includes areas of relatively large lot single-family neighborhoods. Densities in Rural Neighborhoods 
are usually one house per acre (or more) of land.
Character Area Plan
The Desert Foothills Character Area is designed to preserve the natural and visual qualities of the 
Sonoran Desert.
The three (3) main goals of the Desert Foothills Character Area Plan are:
• 
Preserve the natural, visual qualities of the lush upper desert by using desert-sensitive 
building techniques.
• 
Promote connected areas of desert open space and trails.
• 
Identify and celebrate the rural desert character of the Desert Foothills area.
Zoning
The site is zoned R1-70/ESL/FO. The R1-70/ESL/FO zoning district allows for single-family residential 
uses. The site is located within the Environmentally Sensitive Lands (ESL) and Foothills Overlay (FO) 
districts. The R1-70/ESL/FO zoning district allows for additional uses, with the approval of a 
Conditional Use Permit (CUP).
The subject site was annexed into the City of Scottsdale on October 6,1983. After annexation from 
Maricopa County, the site was zoned Single-Family Residential, Hillside District (R1-70/HD), through 
cases 36-ZN-1984 and 113-ZN-1984.
In 1991, the Environmentally Sensitive Lands (ESL) ordinance was added as an amendment to the 
Hillside District overlay. Later, in March of 2003, the Foothills Overlay designation was added to this 
site's zoning classification. The Foothills Overlay (FO) designation was in response to the Desert 
Foothills Character Area Plan approved by City Council in June of 1999. The current ESL overlay took 
effect in 2004.
Context
The subject property is generally located on the north side of E. Jomax Road, east of N. Hayden Road. 
More specifically, the site is located on the northeast corner of N. 79^^ Street and E. Cavedale Drive.
A majority of the local residential streets in the area are unimproved and include waterlines within 
the dedicated right-of-way. The local area does not include sewer-line improvements to service this 
neighborhood. The surrounding areas, within a quarter-mile radius of this site, include single-family 
homes and undeveloped residential lots.
Please refer to context graphics attached.
The subject 33-foot General Land Office Patent Easements (GLO) located along the western and 
southern boundaries of 26815 N. 79^'’ Street were dedicated in January of 1960, through patent serial

number 1206734. The subject GLO roadway easements were reserved on the original patent deed to 
assure legal access. Currently the 33 feet of GLO easement (located along N. 79‘^ Street) contains a 
dirt road, and there is currently a dirt driveway, to the parcel located to the east of this subject site, 
located along E. Cavedale Drive.
The twenty-five (25) feet of fee-simple right-of-way, located along E. Cavedale Drive within the 
above-mentioned GLOPE area, was dedicated in 1969 through docket no. 7536/284.
General Land Office Patent Easements (general information)
• 
Within the City of Scottsdale there are General Land Office (GLO) lots or parcels of various sizes 
created by the Federal Small Tract Act. This act was passed in 1938 and repealed in 1976.
• 
Most GLO lots were patented with 33-foot (or sometimes 50-foot) roadway and public utility 
easements typically "as near as practicable to the exterior boundaries" of the GLO lot.
The City has viewed these patent roadway and utility easements as assured access for these lots, 
at least until a local circulation plan is established.
As GLO lots come in for development (i.e., lot splits, subdivisions or requesting building permits) 
staff requires city right-of-way dedications per city circulation plans. The City's transportation 
plan establishes a street system to replace the grid pattern created by the GLO easements.
• 
Any patent easements may be requested to be abandoned if it is in excess of the current 
requirements of the City's circulation plans (includirig trails) or City roadway standards, and not 
required to ensure access to any other lot.
• 
On 1981, City Ordinance 1386 was adopted delegating the authority for the release of GLO 
easements to the Engineering Services Director.
• 
On March 2,1999, the City Council repealed Ordinance 1386 and adopted Ordinance 3219 which 
requires the abandonment of the GLO patent roadway easements to go through the same public 
hearing process currently used for all rights-of-way, alleys, and roadway easements. The City 
Attorney's office has concluded that this process for consideration of GLO roadway abandonment 
satisfies legal requirements.
• 
On August 12,2005, Arizona Revised Statute section 9-500.24 became effective. This provision 
gives the local municipality the right to abandon GLO patent easements, and concurs with the 
City's position on abandonment of GLO patent easements.

IMPACT ANALYSIS 
Land Use
The existing land use for this subject site is in conformance with the General Plan designated land use 
of Rural Neighborhoods. The request shall not modify the existing land use designation.
Traffic/Trails
The Transportation Master Plan Local Area Infrastructure Planned Streets (LAIPS) plan does not 
identify an east/west connection between N. 79**^ street and N. Hayden Road, along the E. Cavedale 
Drive alignment. This abandonment request is consistent with the Transportation Master Plan Local 
Area Infrastructure Planned Streets (LAIPS) plan. The Transportation Department supports the 
abandonment of E. Cavedale Drive as proposed in this request. The Property owner shall provide a 
25-foot fee-simple right-of-way dedication along the western boundary (N. 79*^ Street) of the subject 
property.
Although the Transportation Master Plan Local Area Infrastructure Planned Streets (LAIPS) plan does 
not identify a planned trail along E. Cavedale Drive, a 4-foot trail was constructed within the southern 
half-street portion of the E. Cavedale right-of-way alignment. This request does not include the 
abandonment of any portion of the southern half-street 33-foot right-of-way (containing both GLOPE 
and fee-simple rights-of-way), therefore the request will not affect the constructed trail.
Emergency/Municipal Services and Utilities
All existing emergency and municipal access will be provided to the properties surrounding the 
abandonment area and maintained through existing dedicated public right-of-way along N. 79*^ 
Street. No impacts are anticipated.
Public Utilities
The public utilities have been notified of the applicant's request. The utility companies have indicated 
that there are no conflicts with the proposed abandonment and support the abandonment with the 
dedication of a public utility easement. A 25-foot public utility easement will be retained over the 
southern 25-foot portion of the 33-foot proposed abandonment area.
Community Involvement
The applicant conducted a mailing to property owners located within 750 feet of the proposed 
roadway easement abandonment. City staff also conducted a mailing to property owners within 750 
feet of the proposed roadway easement abandonment. The applicant received communications 
from two residents inquiring about the abandonment. The applicant stated that a second letter was 
sent to the residents and that no further communications were received.
Staff received one email requesting information pertaining to the abandonment application. The 
resident stated they were a potential buyer of the property located to the south of the subject site. 
The resident stated that they understood that there was a Desert Foothills trail planned by the City of 
Scottsdale along E. Cavedale Drive, and the trail appeared to be going through the area of land just 
south of the property. The resident was inquiring whether the requested abandonment case would 
affect the location of the proposed trail expansion project. As stated above, the proposed 
abandonment request will not affect the existing trail.
Page 4 of 7

City Council Report | Widdows Residence Abandonment (North Cavedale)
Staff provided information to the resident at the time of the initial email, and more recently, staff 
contacted the resident for a follow-up. The resident stated they did not purchase the property and 
were no longer concerned with the abandonment request.
Policy Implications
The compensation amount has been compiled by City of Scottsdale staff in accordance with 
abandonment valuation procedure. The owner of the parcel has agreed to pay to City the total 
amount of $5,032.50 for the Abandonment Right-of-Way, in addition to any other amounts payable 
to City. The Property owner shall dedicate a 25-foot fee-simple right-of-way dedication along the 
western boundary (N. 79^^ Street) of the subject property. The owner shall also dedicate a 25-foot 
Public Utility Easement located along the southern boundary (E. Cavedale Drive) of the site;

RE: Project Narrative for partiai abandonment of Cavedale Drive Alignment - Project No, 858-PA-2023 
To whom it may concern:
I am representing Matt Widdows, the owner of 26815 N 79 St. Scottsdale, AZ. The Widdows 
property is encumbered by NAOS easements aiong the northeriy and the southwesterly portions of the 
property. Over the years, the NAOS easements have been partiaily encroached into by previous owners 
of the property. These encroachments inciude grading, landscaping, the construction of a backyard 
block wall, and removal of native plants. In addition to this, some structures such as out-buildings and 
equine sunshades have been constructed within the setbacks.
The vacation of Cavedale would provide much needed space for the property to be able to re­
vegetate to its natural state. The vacation of Cavedale will also be critical to help bring setback violations 
into compliance. Efforts have taken place to communicate with the neighbors regarding this matter as 
well as utility companies which can be seen in the submitted documents. A utility easement has been 
recorded for APS along the Cavedale alignment. A Cox utility easement legal document has been 
created but not recorded yet. Verizon Wireless has been notified of the abandonment and have chosen 
to be unresponsive. 811/Bluestake failed to find any Verizon utilities in the proposed vacated area along 
Cavedale.
The area to be abandoned is 330.26' by 33.00' totaling 10,898.58 square feet. For the cost of 50 
cents/square foot the total cost would be $5,449.29 to be paid to City of Scottsdale from the owner.
We look forward to working with you on this project.
Thank you.

PARADISE VALLEY, AZ 85253
RE; Proposed Abandonment of Cavedale Rd 
Mr. & Mrs. Abdin:
I am representing Carol Chase, the owner of 26815 N 79 St. Scottsdale, AZ, which is located NW 
of your property along N Hayden Rd in Scottsdale. (APN# 212-22-038) My client is in the early stages of 
asking the City of Scottsdale for the abandonment of the Cavedale Dr alignment that is located on the 
south side of her property. This road alignment also exists on the north side of your property, taking up 
your northerly 33 feet, which has existed since the Government Land Office issued patents for these 
parcels and reserved this space for ingress/egress.
As part of our project, we are reaching out to you to not only make you aware of our proposal, 
but to inform you that if this abandonment was to go through, the city has expressed desire to abandon 
and return to the property owners the rest of this segment of Cavedale. If you are interested in 
eliminating public access rights along your northerly boundary, I can point you to the appropriate city 
staff to work with and would also be open to consulting with you to help you make this happen.
There are benefits of this to you, such as enlarging buildable space/reducing setbacks, and increased 
property values. There Is also a cost to doing so, as the city charges a fee of S.50/sq ft, an application 
fee, and other expenses you'd incur to comply with the City's complex application process.
If you'd like to discuss this with me further, my contact information is in the header.
Thank you,

RE: Neighborhood Notification - Project No. 858-PA-2023 
To whom it may concern:
You are receiving this letter because real estate you own has been identified as either either 
being within 750 feet of this project, being an HOA within 750 feet of this project, or you're on the City 
of Scottsdale's 'Interested Party' list. Project 858-PA-2023 is a right-of-way (ROW) abandonment 
request being submitted to the City of Scottsdale, on behalf of Carol Chase, the owner of 26815 N 79*^ 
St, Scottsdale, AZ. The ROW abandonment process requires that this notification be sent to you.
The Cavedale alignment is a public ROW along the southerly 33 feet of her property. A roadway 
is not physically present in this location. This project seeks to vacate the existence of the public right-of- 
way. Easements will be granted to existing utility providers.
The project area is 12,445.6 sq ft or 0.29 acres more or less. It is zoned Rl-70.
If you have any questions, my contact information is in the header of this letter.
The Contact for The City of Scottsdale is:

Subject: 26815 N 79th st Cavedale abandonment
Hello, I'm writing to inquire about this case as a prospective buyer for the property (single 
family home) at 26915 N 79th st. There is currently a Desert Foothills Trail Construction 
planned by the City of Scottsdale, and it appears to be going through this area of land just 
south of the property. I would like to know if this abandonment case will still be valid if that 
land is going to be part of this trail expansion project. If so, then I would assume the land 
couldn't be acquired by the property owner? Please clarify and advise on any conflicts with the 
abandonment case and trail construction. Thank you, Bethanne Baretich 253-678-9578 — sent 
by Bethanne Baretich (case# 3-AB-2024)
