BACKGROUND
General Plan
The General Plan Land Use Element designates the property as mixed-use neighborhoods. This 
category includes higher density residential combined with complementary office or retail uses, 
generally located in areas having access to multiple modes of transportation. Additionally, the 
property is located within a General Plan designated Growth Area - specific locations within the 
community that are most appropriate for development focus, and will best accommodate future 
growth, new development, and redevelopment.
Character Area Plan
The subject property is located within the boundary of the Old Town Scottsdale Character Area 
Plan (OTSCAP), a policy document that guides growth and development decisions for 
Scottsdale’s downtown area. The property is designated as Downtown Multiple Use within the 
Type 3 development area, located within the OTSCAP designated Entertainment District. Multiple 
Use areas provide a mix of activities through the development of mutually supportive land uses. 
Type 3 development is suited for the most intensive, highest scale development in Old Town. The 
Entertainment District has a mix of residences, hotels, nightclubs, restaurants and bars. A 
grocery and other service-oriented businesses are located along the eastern edge of the district.
Zoning
The site was annexed into the City in 1951 (Ord. #1) and zoned to the Central Business (C-2) zoning 
designation, and was subsequently zoned Parking P-2. In 2003 the City Council adopted Ord. 
3521 applying the Downtown Overlay (DO) over the downtown area, including the subject site. The 
P-2 district is intended to provide off-street parking. Although the existing zoning designation 
already allows off-street parking, the proposed Downtown District with the PBD Overlay allows 
additional flexibility to development standards for structures.
Context
The subject property is located on Stetson Drive between Civic Center Plaza and Wells Fargo 
Avenue, surrounded by Downtown-zoned low-intensity commercial properties. Please refer to 
context graphics attached.

APPLICANT’S PROPOSAL
Development Information
The applicant is seeking approval of a zoning district map amendment from P-2 DO to D/DMU-3 
PBD DO. The goal of the applicant’s request is to redevelop the property with a multi-story public 
parking garage to support existing and future downtown development. The Development Plan 
includes development standards using the Downtown (D) district as the baseline set of 
requirements but with a few deviations (see attachments).
The proposal includes several improvements to public facilities, including widened sidewalks, 
repaved alleys, and contemporary street pole lighting. The new structure will be mostly setback 
twenty (20) feet from the street curb on the north and south sides, while directly abutting each 
sixteen-foot alley on the east and west sides. The improved sidewalks will feature tree wells and 
planters.
The design intends to reduce the visual impact of the structure and contribute to the area by 
considering architectural screening elements, enhanced streetscaping and landscaping, and 
open stairways in response to input received during public outreach. Ultimately, the chief 
consideration is the ability to improve the accessibility, functionality, and economic vitality in 
general for residents, visitors, and employees of the downtown area.

IMPACT ANALYSIS
Land Use and development standards
The existing zoning already allows both surface and garage parking by right, but due to the new 
structure and principals of efficient parking structure layouts and circulation needs, rezoning to 
the Downtown (D) district allows more flexibility. Moreover, the PBD overlay will amend the
Page 3 of 8

Planning Commission Report | ZN-0004-2026
setbacks, building location, and stepback requirements to accommodate the secondary 
structural elements of the garage (e.g., stairways and parapet screening).
The development plan proposes development standards that largely align with the requirements 
of the Downtown (D) district standards, with the exception of a few proposed modifications. The 
Downtown (D) district allows eighty-four (84) feet of height by right in Type-3 areas. The proposed 
structure is forty-six (46 feet). However, the maximum height for the existing P-2 zoning is only 
thirty-six (36) feet. The encroachments to the stepback plane are relatively minor. The portions 
of the proposed development standards that vary from the Downtown requirements are detailed 
in the legislative draft of Property Development Standards presented as part of the Development 
Plan.
PBD Criteria
In accordance with Section 6.1304.B of the Zoning Ordinance, the Planning Commission shall 
make a recommendation to City Council, based on the following PBD criteria:
1. Standard Criteria
a. The proposed development supports the land use elements of the General
Plan and the Old Town Plan.
• 
Old Town Plan Goal LU 2 encourages the development of Old Town as a 
collection of mixed land uses and districts. General Plan 2035 and the Old 
Town Scottsdale Character Area Plan recognize Old Town as a Mixed-Use 
Neighborhood and Growth Area, and the Old Town Plan describes Old Town as 
a year-round, seven-day-a-week, 24-hour Mixed-Use Neighborhood. The Old 
Town Plan also identifies the Entertainment District as an area with a mix of 
residences, hotels, nightclubs, restaurants, bars, and service-oriented 
businesses. The proposed parking garage would provide structured parking 
within the Entertainment District to serve surrounding land uses. In this 
context, the request supports the planned mixed-use downtown activity by 
providing parking infrastructure.
• 
General Plan Land Use Goal LU 1 encourages land uses that support 
Scottsdale’s role as a regional cultural center and economic hub, and Policy 
LU 1.3 promotes development patterns that integrate with and reinforce the 
character of an area. The proposed development would locate a public parking 
garage within an established downtown district. By providing parking 
infrastructure in proximity to existing entertainment, hospitality, commercial, 
and residential uses, the request supports the existing land use pattern and 
reinforces Old Town’s function as a mixed-use destination.
• 
General Plan Land Use Goal LU 3 promotes maintaining a balance of land uses 
to support a high quality of life, and Policy LU 3.2 supports the integration of 
housing, employment, and supporting infrastructure, primarily in mixed-use 
neighborhoods and Growth and Activity Areas. The proposed parking garage 
would provide supporting infrastructure within Old Town, which is identified as 
both a Mixed-Use Neighborhood and Growth Area. The request implements
Page 4 of 8

Planning Commission Report | ZN-0004-2026
this policy by supporting access to the surrounding mix of land uses in a 
location planned for downtown growth and activity.
2. Criteria to add land uses
a. Each proposed land use helps maintain a balance of land uses in the 
Downtown Area in accordance with the Downtown Plan.
b. Each proposed land use is compatible with the adjacent development, and 
strengthens the mix of land uses and activities in the Downtown Area.
c. Each proposed land use substantially implements the pedestrian oriented, 
twenty-four (24) hour downtown community goals of the Downtown Plan.
The proposed development will utilize the land uses permitted within the 
Downtown (D) district and is not requesting any additional land uses. This criterion 
is not applicable
3. Criteria to achieve bonuses
a. The proposed Development Plan reflects noteworthy investments to provide 
public benefits, improve the quality of life for the community, and assist in 
achieving the goals and policies of the General Plan, Downtown Plan and City 
objectives, in the vicinity where the development will be located.
This criterion does not apply; there is no request for bonuses.
Fire/Police
The City’s public safety divisions have reviewed the application and determined that existing 
facilities are sufficient to provide service for the proposed use, and no impacts to existing service 
levels are anticipated. The nearest fire station is located less than half a mile to the southeast at 
7522 E. Indian School Road, and the nearest police station is located to the southeast at 3700 N. 
75*^ Street.
Cultural Improvement Program
Scottsdale Public Art will commission a public art installation to be integrated into the structure 
itself. The artwork will be reflective of Old Town character and further strengthen the area’s 
cultural identity.
Housing Cost
In conjunction with state law, staff considered the scope of the zoning district map amendment, 
as well as aspects which would affect the cost of construction of housing for sale or rent. Staff 
has not identified any factors that would substantially impact the cost to construct housing for 
sale or rent.
Page 5 of 8

Planning Commission Report | ZN-0004-2026
Community Involvement
Staff notified all property owners within 1,250 feet of the site. In addition, the applicant has been 
in communication with the community. The applicant team has had continuing conversations 
with tourism, hospitality, and events stakeholders. Feedback from the community along with 
various city departments have continued to refine the final product.
Other Boards and Commissions
Planning Commission:
Planning Commission heard this case on June 10, 2026 and recommended approval with a 6-0 
vote.
Recommended Approach:
Staff recommended that the Planning Commission find that the Planned Block Development 
Overlay criteria have been met, and determine that the proposed zoning district map amendment, 
development plan, and development standards are consistent and conform with the adopted 
General Plan and make a recommendation to City Council for approval of the proposal, per the 
attached stipulations.
Policy Implications
The proposal will provide a central location for off-street public parking in an area concentrated 
with active streets, nightlife, and tourism. Because the site is already zoned and used for public 
parking, there is no risk of negatively impacting the mix of daytime and nighttime uses, nor 
displace any existing office, retail, or hospitality uses.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION 
Recommended Approach:
1. Adopt Ordinance No. 4717 for a Zoning District Map Amendment from Parking District 
Downtown Overlay (P-2 DO) to Downtown/Multiple Use, Type 3 with Planned Block 
Development Overlay, Downtown Overlay (D/DMU-3 PBD DO) zoning with a development plan 
for a municipal use for a parking structure, including amended development standards for 
setbacks, stepbacks, and building location on a +/-1.05-acre site located at 7375 E. Stetson 
Drive.
2. Adopt Resolution No. 13704 for a Development Plan and amended development standards for 
setbacks, stepbacks, and building location on a +/-1.05-acre site located at 7375 E. Stetson 
Drive.

SCOTTSDALE NEQ PARKING STRUCTURE 
DEVELOPMENT PLAN APPLICATION NARRATIVE - REV
APPLICATION NARRATIVE - REV 5.6.2026
Existing Zoning: Parking P-2 District; Vehicle Parking Downtown Overlay (P-2 DO)
The subject property is currently zoned P-2 (Public Parking District) with the Downtown Overlay (DO). 
The P-2 District is intended to accommodate parking facilities and related uses that support adjacent 
land uses and contribute to the orderly development and functioning of urban areas. Development 
within the P-2 district is regulated by the underlying zoning standards as well as the additional 
requirements of the Downtown Overlay, which establishes supplemental development criteria 
intended to guide urban form, pedestrian orientation, and compatibility with the downtown 
environment.
The Downtown Overlay (DO) establishes development standards that promote cohesive urban form, 
pedestrian-scaled streetscapes, and compatibility with the surrounding Old Town context. The DO 
zoning district modifies the base zoning to ensure that building placement, height, and massing 
contribute to the character and function of downtown Scottsdale. The overlay regulates key elements 
such as setbacks, stepbacks, and urban design relationships between buildings and the public realm.
Under the current P-2 DO zoning designation, the following development regulations apply:
Building Height
The maximum building height permitted under the P-2 zoning district is thirty-six (36) feet, as 
measured in accordance with the City's zoning ordinance definition of building height. This limitation 
reflects the intended scale and intensity of development permitted under the P-2 district, which is 
primarily intended to accommodate parking structures and similar uses that serve adjacent 
development.
Building Setbacks
The Downtown Overlay establishes minimum setbacks designed to reinforce consistent urban street 
edges and pedestrian-friendly development patterns. Specifically:
A minimum setback of twenty (20) feet is required from the curb line along Stetson Drive and 
6th Avenue.
A zero (0) foot setback is permitted along alley frontages, reflecting the intent to allow service- 
oriented edges and efficient site utilization.
These setback provisions are intended to create predictable street relationships, maintain pedestrian 
circulation, and ensure compatibility with adjacent development patterns.
Stepback Requirements
The Downtown Overlay also establishes stepback requirements intended to reduce the perceived bulk 
and mass of taller buildings and preserve pedestrian-scale proportions at street level. Under the DO 
regulations, a stepback is required beginning at forty-five (45) feet above grade. This stepback ensures 
that upper portions of buildings are visually recessed from the street frontage, preserving access to 
light, air, and pedestrian comfort.
Collectively, these provisions regulate building height, massing, and placement to maintain 
consistency with the Downtown Overlay’s urban design objectives, including pedestrian orientation.
Resolution No. 13704 
Exhibit 1 
Page 2 of 31

compatibility with surrounding development, and preservation of the established character of 
downtown Scottsdale.
JUSTIFICATION FOR MODIFICATIONS TO EXISTING P-2 DO REGULATIONS
Need for Modification to Accommodate Proposed Parking Garage Structure
The proposed parking garage is intended to serve existing and future development within the 
downtown area, supporting the City’s goals for increased density, walkability, and mixed-use 
development. Due to functional and operational requirements inherent to structured parking facilities, 
strict compliance with certain provisions of the existing P-2 DO zoning district is not feasible.
Building Height Modification
Under the current P-2 zoning designation, the maximum building height is limited to thirty-six (36) feet. 
This height limitation does not adequately accommodate the vertical clearance requirements, 
structural systems, ramp geometry, and circulation needed for an efficient multi-level parking 
structure.
Parking garages require sufficient floor-to-floor heights to accommodate vehicular clearance, 
structural depth, mechanical systems, and circulation ramps. Limiting the structure to thirty-six feet 
would substantially reduce the number of parking levels that could be accommodated, thereby 
limiting the garage’s ability to provide sufficient parking capacity to support surrounding downtown 
uses. This would undermine the City’s broader planning objectives to consolidate parking into 
structured facilities and support compact, pedestrian-oriented development.
Accordingly, a modification to the building height requirement is necessary to allow a functional 
parking structure that efficiently meets the operational needs of the downtown area.
Setback Modification Along Stetson Drive and 6th Avenue
The Downtown Overlay requires a minimum setback of twenty (20) feet from the curb line along 
Stetson Drive and 6th Avenue. While this setback is appropriate for many building types, strict 
adherence to this requirement would significantly reduce the developable area of the site and impair 
the functional layout of the parking structure.
Parking structures require efficient structural grids, circulation ramps, and vehicular access points. 
Increasing the setback beyond what is operationally feasible would result in inefficient parking layouts, 
reduced parking capacity, and compromised vehicular circulation.
Furthermore, structured parking facilities benefit from being located closer to street frontages to 
facilitate convenient access, minimize internal circulation conflicts, and support efficient ingress and 
egress. Reducing or modifying the setback requirement will allow the structure to function efficiently 
while still maintaining compatibility with the surrounding urban environment.
Stepback Requirement Modification
The Downtown Overlay requires stepbacks beginning at forty-five (45) feet above grade. While 
stepbacks are appropriate for occupied buildings intended for residential, office, or commercial use, 
strict application of stepback requirements to a parking structure presents functional challenges.
Resolution No. 13704 
Exhibit 1 
Page 3 of 31

Parking structures rely on repetitive structural grids and efficient floor plates to maximize capacity and 
maintain operational efficiency. Introducing stepbacks would disrupt the structural system, reduce 
parking efficiency, increase construction complexity, and reduce the overall number of parking spaces 
provided.
Given the utilitarian nature of structured parking and its essential role in supporting downtown 
development, modification of the stepback requirement is justified to allow a continuous structural 
system and maximize operational functionality.
Summary of Modification Justification
The requested modifications are necessary to:
• 
Allow sufficient building height to accommodate multiple parking levels
• 
Provide efficient parking layouts and vehicular circulation
• 
Support the parking needs of downtown development
• 
Maintain structural efficiency and cost effectiveness
• 
Support the City’s goals for downtown density, mobility, and economic vitality
These modifications are not intended to circumvent the intent of the zoning ordinance but rather to 
allow a functional parking facility that supports the City’s broader planning and development 
objectives.

General Plan Character & Design Element (Policy CD 4.1) and Old Town Scottsdale Urban 
Design & Architectural Guidelines (UDAG) - Parking Structures, Streetscape Design, Shading, and 
Stair Integration
Project Response:
The proposed Scottsdale NEQ Parking Structure has been designed to respond to the intent of General 
Plan Character & Design Element Policy CD 4.1 and the Old Town Scottsdale Urban Design & 
Architectural Guidelines (UDAG) by incorporating pedestrian-oriented streetscape improvements, 
architectural shading elements, integrated landscape features, and articulated architectural 
components intended to enhance the urban environment and improve the pedestrian experience 
adjacent to the project.
The project provides shaded sidewalks in conformance with the requirements of Zoning Ordinance 
Section 5.3006.J and the Old Town Scottsdale Urban Design & Architectural Guidelines (UDAG) 
through a combination of landscape and architectural shading elements integrated throughout the 
site design.
Trees with large canopy coverage at full maturity, consistent with the approved landscape palette, are 
proposed along both E. 6th Avenue and Stetson Drive to enhance pedestrian comfort and provide 
shaded sidewalk areas. These landscape improvements are intended to reinforce the pedestrian- 
oriented character of the downtown streetscape while contributing to shade coverage, visual 
enhancement, and overall streetscape continuity.
Due to the orientation of the building, additional shading opportunities are provided along the south­
facing elevation adjacent to E. 6th Avenue through architectural shade projections and canopy 
elements designed in response to the Urban Design & Architectural Guidelines. These architectural 
features contribute additional pedestrian shading opportunities while also reinforcing the architectural 
character, scale, and visual articulation of the parking structure.
Along Stetson Drive, which faces north, architectural shade projections would not significantly 
improve or increase sidewalk shading due to the orientation of the building and solar exposure 
conditions. In this area, the proposed canopy trees, integrated landscape planters, and streetscape 
enhancements provide pedestrian comfort, visual buffering, and a human-scaled streetscape 
environment along the sidewalk corridor.
The project also incorporates stair tower elements as integrated architectural features of the building 
design. The stairways are intentionally designed as open stair elements in response to public 
comments. City staff input. Urban Design & Architectural Guideline recommendations, and security 
considerations associated with public parking structures. The open stair concept improves visibility, 
passive surveillance, and user comfort while contributing to a more transparent and visually integrated 
architectural expression.
The open stair tower design was presented during the public outreach process together with the 
original enclosed stair concept as part of alternative design options evaluated by the public and City 
representatives. The open stair concept received favorable public feedback and was supported by the 
City Manager and City staff as a preferred approach that better responds to the urban design goals, 
pedestrian experience objectives, and safety considerations associated with the project.

Exhibit 1 
Page 16 of 31

The stair towers are further articulated through architectural screening systems, integrated lighting 
features, vertical design elements, and landscape integration intended to create visual interest, 
reduce the perceived scale of the structure, and contribute positively to the overall urban character of 
Downtown Scottsdale and the Old Town Entertainment District.
General Plan Character & Culture Element (Goal ACC 3) and the OTSCAP Arts and Culture 
Chapter
The proposed project supports the intent of the Scottsdale General Plan Character & Culture Element 
Goal ACC 3, the Old Town Scottsdale Character Area Plan Arts and Culture Chapter Goal AC 2, and 
the Cultural Improvements requirements of Zoning Ordinance Section 6.1309 by incorporating 
integrated public art elements as part of the overall parking structure design and placemaking strategy.
The project includes the incorporation of public art elements integrated into the parking structure 
architecture, intended to contribute to the visual identity and pedestrian experience of Downtown 
Scottsdale and the Entertainment District. At this stage of the design process, the artwork program is 
anticipated to consist of exterior-mounted artwork integrated into portions of the building envelope 
and/or architectural screening panel systems. Potential artwork locations are being evaluated along 
prominent street-facing elevations and pedestrian-oriented areas where the installation can enhance 
the urban environment and contribute to the project’s architectural character.
The specific artwork design, artist selection, scale, and final installation concepts are currently under 
development through the project’s public art selection process. The project advisory board has 
approved finalist artists, and the artist selection process is ongoing. Once an artist is selected, the art 
team will coordinate with the project design team to integrate the artwork into the structure in a 
manner consistent with the project architecture, lighting design, and overall urban context.
As part of the Design Review process, the project is identifying potential artwork locations and 
integrated lighting opportunities where applicable. The artwork is anticipated to be incorporated as a 
permanent feature of the project and will contribute to the overall placemaking, pedestrian 
experience, and architectural identity of the structure. Final artwork design, content, and approval are 
anticipated to continue through the established public art review and advisory process coordinated 
separately from the rezoning entitlement review.
Summary of Project Response to Applicable General Plan, OTSCAP, and PBD Overlay Criteria
The proposed Scottsdale NEQ Parking Structure has been designed to support the goals, policies, and 
design objectives established within the Scottsdale General Plan 2035, the Old Town Scottsdale 
Character Area Plan (OTSCAP), the Old Town Scottsdale Urban Design & Architectural Guidelines 
(UDAG), and the Planned Block Development (PBD) Overlay District criteria.
The project responds to the cited goals and policies through the following key planning, urban design, 
mobility, and placemaking strategies:
Provides centralized structured public parking supporting Downtown Scottsdale and the Old 
Town Entertainment District.
Supports the continued economic vitality of surrounding businesses, restaurants, 
entertainment venues, hospitality uses, and civic destinations.
Reinforces a walkable "park once” environment consistent with Downtown and Old Town 
mobility objectives.

• 
Promotes efficient urban land use by consolidating parking demand within a structured facility 
rather than dispersed surface parking lots.
• 
Enhances pedestrian connectivity and accessibility between surrounding destinations within 
the downtown core.
• 
• Incorporates pedestrian-oriented streetscape improvements including enhanced sidewalks,
landscape planters, pedestrian access points, and integrated lighting features.
• 
Provides shaded sidewalks in conformance with Zoning Ordinance Section 5.3006.J and the 
Old Town Scottsdale Urban Design & Architectural Guidelines through a combination of;
o Large canopy shade trees 
o Integrated landscape elements
o Architectural shade projections and canopies along south-facing frontages
• 
Incorporates architectural screening systems intended to reduce the visual impact commonly 
associated with open parking structures.
• 
Utilizes integrated architectural lighting, articulated vertical elements, and coordinated 
material selections to improve the visual quality and identity of the structure.
• 
Incorporates open stair tower elements designed in response to:
o Public outreach comments 
o City staff and City Manager input 
o UDAG design recommendations 
o Public safety and passive surveillance considerations
• 
Supports the public realm and urban character of Downtown Scottsdale through context 
sensitive architectural and streetscape design strategies.
• 
Balances the operational and functional requirements of a public parking structure with high- 
quality urban design and pedestrian-oriented architectural responses.
• 
Recognizes that traditional building articulation approaches associated with occupied mixed- 
use buildings are limited due to parking structure operational requirements, while 
implementing alternative architectural strategies to create visual interest and fagade variation.
• 
Supports OTSCAP Goal LU 4 and PBD Overlay District objectives by providing public 
infrastructure that enhances mobility, accessibility, connectivity, and long-term downtown 
functionality.
• 
Supports General Plan Character & Culture Element Goal ACC 3 and OTSCAP Arts & Culture 
Goal AC 2 through the integration of a public art component coordinated through the City of 
Scottsdale public art selection process.
• 
Identifies potential public art integration locations including stair towers and elevator shaft 
elements to reinforce placemaking and contribute to the cultural identity of Old Town 
Scottsdale.
• 
Continues to support community involvement and public communication efforts through 
ongoing City coordination, stakeholder meetings, and publicly accessible project information 
resources.
Overall, the project is intended to function as both critical public parking infrastructure and an 
integrated urban design component that supports the long-term vitality, accessibility, walkability, 
placemaking objectives, and character of Downtown Scottsdale and the Old Town Entertainment 
District.

I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AND INTRODUCTION
A. Purpose of Report
This report focuses on the preliminaiy traffic analysis for a new proposed northeast quadrant parking 
garage and surface lot in Scottsdale, Arizona. For the purposes of this report, it is assumed the completion 
year is 2027. The driveway allowing access to garage as well as four adjacent intersections are analyzed as 
a part of this report based on coordination with the City of Scottsdale’s (City) traffic team. This study 
evaluates the capacity for each intersection and the parking garage access.
B. Executive Summary
Site Location and Study Area
The project site is located on the south side of Stetson Drive between Wells Fargo Avenue and Civic Center 
Plaza with a small portion located in the existing parking lot south of 6*^ Avenue. The study area includes 
the following intersections:
• 
Stetson Drive & Wells Fargo Avenue
• 
Stetson Drive & Civic Center Plaza
• 
6* Avenue & Wells Fargo Avenue
• 
6*^' Avenue & Civic Center Plaza
Additionally, per discussion with the City’s traffic team, there are existing concerns related to traffic along 
Stetson Drive between Wells Fargo Avenue and Civic Center Plaza due to rideshare pick-up and drop-offs 
as well as general traffic for tbe clubs and bars north and east of the project area late at night and early in 
the morning. The traffic data was therefore collected from 8:00pm to 10:00pm and again from i:ooam to 
3:00am on a Saturday evening. The City also indicated concern regarding potential for traffic back-ups 
along Stetson that traditional traffic data collection methods would not pick up during these peak times. 
Therefore, video footage was collected along Stetson for review to determine if traffic is at a standstill during 
peak times for general traffic as well as pick-up and drop-off traffic from the bars and clubs in the area.
Development Description
The proposed project includes a multi-story parking garage to be located over the existing lot between 
Stetson Drive and b'** Avenue with the addition of surface level parking in the existing parking lot south of 
6* Avenue as well as changes to the on-street parking along 6* Avenue. Based on several findings, notably 
findings from the existing traffic data collection and video footage along Stetson, the decision was made to 
provide access to the garage from Avenue to reduce interaction with the significant number of 
pedestrians crossing Stetson along the site frontage and within the vicinity of the project.
With access to the garage from 6'^’ Avenue, the street parking will be reduced to about 17 parking spaces on 
either side of 6'** Avenue along the project frontage. The lot south of b* Avenue will continue to provide 33 
parking spaces. The parking garage will provide about 232 parking spaces. Compared to the current number 
of parking spaces available, the new proposed parking will increase by about 155 parking spaces. The 
proposed site plan can be found in Appendix A.
Principal Findings
The proposed site access for the new parking garage operates at an acceptable level of service during both 
peak hours analyzed with the egress traffic stop controlled and b* Avenue traffic remaining free flowing. 
Per the parameters of this study it appears that the parking garage project does not have a significant impact 
for traffic for the intersections studied as a part of this traffic study. The delays may increase during the

Scottsdale NE Quadrant Parking Garage 
Preliminary Traffic Impact and Mitigation
Analysis

1:45am peak hour for Civic Center Plaza and Avenue as well as 9:00pm for Wells Fargo Avenue and 6*’’ 
Avenue.
Recommendations
The pedestrian crossing observations along Stetson Drive indicate that another pedestrian crossing that 
increases visibility of pedestrians would be desirable - adjacent to the alleyway connection to Stetson Drive. 
The parking garage will likely increase the demand of pedestrians crossings at this location in addition to 
the demand of pedestrians crossing at Civic Center Plaza and Wells Fargo Avenue intersections with Stetson 
Drive.
The increase in traffic anticipated at b*** Avenue and Wells Fargo Avenue as well as b* Avenue and Civic 
Center Plaza will likely increase the delay enough to cross the threshold for a level of Service E for the 
southbound approach for the two intersections. Converting the intersections to all-way stop control would 
help mitigate this undesirable level of service for each intersection. It is recommended that the City consider 
conducting a daytime evaluation of the potential impacts to daytime traffic prior to making the decision to 
implement this traffic control change.
There is also significant pedestrian crossing demand at Stetson Drive & Civic Center Parkway and vehicle 
turning movements are currently experiencing significant delays at the intersection for the northbound and 
southbound approaches. This is anticipated to continue with the new parking garage. It is therefore 
recommended to provide all-way stop control at this intersection as well. This will benefit both the 
pedestrians by providing north/south crosswalks at the intersection and it will also benefit vehicular delay 
at the intersection. This study focuses on the “nightlife” traffic in the area when heavy pedestrian traffic 
occurs, therefore it is recommended that the City consider conducting a daytime analysis to confirm all-way 
stop control will not have a significant impact on daytime traffic in the area. It is notable that there is 
already an all-way stop at Stetson and Well Fargo intersection. So, with that in mind it might be time to 
consider a network of all-way stops at all of these intersections and throughout downtown that has similar 
traffic characteristics, especially when it comes to high pedestrian crossing demand, especially at night.
For vehicular circulation in and around the parking garage, it is recommended to provide signage and 
pavement markings to indicate the direction of travel to vehicular traffic. It might also be desirable to 
evaluate traffic calming features in and round the garage entrances and exits and anywhere pedestrians 
may be crossing or interacting with vehicle traffic. It is recommended to provide signage for the alleyways 
that indicate the alleyways are one-way at the entry points and provide “wrong way” signage at the exit 
points. It is also recommended to provide stop signs at the alleyway exit points as weU as the garage exit.
It is also recommended for wayfinding options be evaluated as a part of the signing and marking plans to 
indicate the location of the parking garage to vehicles looking for traffic and pedestrians returning to their 
vehicle in the parking garage. It is also recommended that the City, sometime in the future, consider 
evaluating the feasibility of implementing additional traffic calming features in the entire dovratown that 
might include raised crosswalks (both at intersections and midblock), raised intersections, and other speed 
limiting physical features that will help reinforce and maintain pedestrian or vulnerable road user (VRU) 
friendly environment.

Analysis

Stetson, the decision was made to provide access to the garage from Avenue to reduce interaction with 
the significant number of pedestrians crossing Stetson along the site frontage and within the vicinity of the 
project.
With access to the garage from h*** Avenue, the street parking will be reduced to about 15 parking spaces on 
either side of 6‘’’ Avenue along the project frontage. The lot south of Avenue will continue to provide 33 
parking spaces. The parking garage will provide up to 232 parking spaces. Compared to the current number 
of parking spaces available, the new proposed parking will increase by about 155 parking spaces. The 
alleyway west of the parking garage will be reconfigured to provide 11 angled parking spaces and the 
alleyway east of the parking garage will continue to provide access to the parking spaces available in the 
west alleyway.
Location
The study area is located in Scottsdale, Arizona. The site is located on the existing parking lot between 
Stetson Drive and 6*>’ Avenue as well as the existing parking lot south of 6* Avenue between Wells Fargo 
Avenue and Civic Center Plaza. This location is shown in Figure 1.

III. AREA CONDITIONS
A. Study Area
Area of Influence and Area of Significant Traffic Impact
The study area is located in Scottsdale, Arizona and this study focuses on the driveways allowing access to 
the site and the surrounding intersections as shown in Figure i.
B. Study Area Land Use
Existing Land Uses and Zoning
The study area is currently used as a surface parking lot and is currently zoned P-2 DO. The parking usage 
will remain for the lot with an increased number of parking spaces due to the conversion to a parking garage.
Trip Generation for Existing Land Use (if appiicable)
It is anticipated that the current parking lot generates about 72 ingress trips and 72-egress trips within a 
peak hour based on the higher turnover rate and existing number of parking spaces during the peak times.
Anticipated Future Development
There is some construction in the area for new development, however, at the time of this report, additional 
future developments are unknown.
C. Site Accessibility

6* Street & Civic Center Plaza is a three-leg intersection with a single approach lane for all three 
approaches. The southbound approach is stop-controlled while the eastbound and westbound traffic is free 
flowing. A crosswalk is provided for the north leg of the intersection.
Traffic Volumes and Conditions
Existing traffic counts were collected on May 24‘*', 2025, that included peak hour intersection turning 
movement counts. As previously noted in the report, the peak hour data collected in this area is reflective 
of the peak traffic during the late evening and early mornings on a Saturday evening (8:oopm-io:oopm 
and i:ooam-3;ooam) due to the proximity of the local bars and clubs. In this particular case, the data was 
collected on a holiday weekend when traffic is anticipated to be higher in this area during those times.
The turning movement counts were collected at the following locations:
• 
Stetson Drive & Wells Fargo Avenue
• 
Stetson Drive & Civic Center Plaza
• 
Avenue & Wells Fargo Avenue
• 
6* Avenue & Civic Center Plaza
The average peak hours between the two data collection time frames at the intersection was 9:00pm to 
10:00pm and 1:45am to 2:45am. The vehicule and pedestrian traffic counts for these peak hours were used 
in the analysis within this report and are shown in Figure 2.

Analysis

Figure 2 - Existing Traffic Counts
Video footage was also collected at each intersection as well as Stetson Drive directed towards the alleyway 
between Wells Fargo Avenue and Civic Center Plaza to provide additional insight into the behavior of 
vehicular traffic as well as pedestrians. The concern for this area is that traffic might be sitting at a standstill 
during the hours data was collected, which would simply show less traffic traveling through the intersection 
with traditional data collection methods. The video footage allowed for observations of potential traffic 
slowdowns. The video footage revealed that traffic does continually move through the area with a few 
vehicles queuing at times. It also revealed the significant number of pedestrians crossing Stetson Drive at 
the Alleyway location from the north to the existing parking lot on the south side of Stetson Drive where the 
new garage is proposed. Additionally, many pedestrians were not only observed crossing the streets at 
Stetson Drive & Wells Fargo Avenue as well as Stetson Drive & Civic Center Plaza, but pedestrians were also 
observed crossing diagonally through the intersections.
Review of Crash History
It is notable that in the past five years (2020-2024) there have been a number of pedestrian related crashes 
on Stetson Drive at or near the Well Fargo intersection all of which happened at night. Four crashes at the 
intersection, one of which was pedestrian related. Thankfully they were only possible injury or suspected 
minor injury. However, that does provide an indication of what the crash risks are, especially for 
pedestrians and other VRUs not only at this intersection, but all similar intersections in this area of 
downtown Scottsdale. At Stetson Drive and Civic Center there has been a total of five crashes in the last 
five years. One was a pedestrian-related crash and was reported as a possible injury at sunset. Crash data 
was obtained from Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) Arizona Crash Information System 
(ACIS).
Transit Service
There are currently no transit stops adjacent to the project site.
Existing Relevant Transportation System Management
It is important to note that both Stetson Drive provides full access to Drinkwater Boulevard west of the 
project site and ends at 75* Street east of the site. 6* Avenue provides right-in/right-out only access from/to 
Drinkwater Boulevard west of the project site, full access to ys*** Street and ends at Miller Road to the east.
IV. PROJECTED TRAFFIC 
A. Site Traffic
Trip Generation
The trip generation for this project was calculated based on the number of planned parking spaces in 
addition to observations made from the video footage as well as conversations with the City police 
department regarding the observed usage of the existing parking lot. The video footage revealed a consistent 
turnover of vehicles in the area for street parking and at the access points to the existing parking lot. 
Additionally, the City indicated that the existing parking lot is often used by rideshare drivers waiting to 
pick up passengers in the area.. With this in mind and to be conservative with the trip generation, it was 
assumed that about 85% of the parking with the completion of the parking garage project would arrive and 
depart during a peak hour with an even distribution of ingress and egress traffic across the hour. This 
resulted in about 259 ingress and 259 egress trips for a total of 480 peak hour trips for the parking garage, 
alleyway parking, and surface lot.

Scottsdale NE Quadrant Parking Garage 
Preliminary Traffic Impact and Mitigation
Analysis

Trip Distribution
The trip distribution was assessed based on the distribution of traffic to/from the current parking lot at the 
four intersections. This was calculated based on each peak hour. It is assumed that the general distribution 
of traffic in this area will remain the same with modifications to the turning movements at the intersections 
due to the access location change for parking.
Trip Assignment
The trip assignment was calculated for both the removal of assumed trip arrivals to the current parking lot 
as well as the anticipated trip assignment for the traffic traveling to the new parking garage access point 
from 6* Avenue. The existing trips needed to be accounted for to help remove duplicate traffic in the area 
that would now be traveling to the garage entrance. The removal of existing trips was estimated based on 
the existing distribution of traffic and was subtracted from the four intersections. The trip assignment was 
then calculated for the 240 ingress and 240 egress trips. The resulting trip assignment calculations are 
summarized in Table 1.

B. Background Traffic
Method of Projections
The existing traffic counts collected on May 24**', 2025 were increased by applying a 1% annual growth rate 
to account for slight growth or increased density within the surrounding area over a two year period. These 
values were used as the background data for this analysis.
Estimated Volumes
Figure 3 shows the calculated background traffic volumes used for the Opening Day (2027) analysis.

V. TRAFFIC ANALYSIS
A. Site Access
The project site access for the parking garage and the surface lot will be from 6*^' Avenue. The alleyways on 
either side of the parking structure are anticipated to remain, however, they are not anticipated to be heavily 
used by parking garage traffic. The site plan provided in Appendix A shows the proposed access points for 
the parking garage and parking lot.
The site visibility was evaluated at the parking garage entry point. The sight triangles are included in 
Appendix E.
B. Capacity and Level of Service
The capacity analysis was conducted using Synchro ii software. Table 2 through Table 4 summarize the 
level of service (LOS) results for the analyzed turning movements for existing traffic, background 2027 
traffic and opening day traffic in 2027. Note that a level of service “E” or “F” is typically considered an 
undesirable level of service and require mitigations to bring the level of service back to a “D” or better.
VI. IMPROVEMENT ANALYSIS
A. Additional Improvements to Accommodate Site Traffic
In addition to vehicular traffic, pedestrian traffic is also associated \vith this project site. There are sidewalks 
available to connect pedestrians to the surrounding businesses as well as intersections with sidewalks. 
Based on the footage collected, pedestrians are crossing midblock or at the intersections where crosswalks 
do not exist. Most notably, pedestrians are exiting the alleyway directly north of the project site to access 
Stetson Drive and are crossing Stetson at the alleyway location. Given the proximity to the parking garage 
that will likely generate more pedestrians crossing at this location, it is recommended to provide 
improvements to increase pedestrian crossing visibility or install infrastructure that will push pedestrians 
to existing crosswalk locations. In addition to a significant number of pedestrian crossings at the 
intersection of Stetson Drive and Civic Center Plaza, some of the vehicle approaches experience a poor level

of service. Making the intersection an all-way stop control significantly improves vehicle delay and level of 
service at the intersection. It is therefore recommended to provide all way stop control to provide 
north/south pedestrian crosswalks at the intersection to provide some safety mitigation and improve the 
level of service and delay for vehicular traffic at the intersection as well.
In addition to accounting for existing pedestrians as weU as anticipated increases in pedestrian traffic due 
to the additional parking, the rerouting of traffic to 6* Avenue does increase delays for the southbound 
approaches at 6* Avenue and Civic Center Plaza as well as 6* Avenue and Wells Fargo Avenue. The 
southbound approaches each experience an undesirable level of service E during one of the peak hours, the 
approach is just over the threshold for a level of service E from a level of service D. One mitigation option 
is to convert the two intersections to all-way stop-controlled intersections. Table 5 shows that this change 
results in desirable level of service and delay for all approaches. It is recommended, however, to evaluate 
the impacts to daytime traffic in the area before implementing this improvement.

PUBLIC PRESENTATION SUMMARY & UPDATE 5.6.2026
PUBLIC OUTREARCH UPDATE - 5.6.2026
Since the original submittal, no additional formal public presentations have been conducted for the 
Scottsdale NEQ Parking Structure project. However, the City of Scottsdale continues to maintain open 
communication and ongoing coordination with community stakeholders regarding the project and 
related downtown operational considerations. This ongoing outreach includes coordinabon meetings 
and discussions with representatives from the tourism, hospitality, and events community, as well as 
continued communication through the City's public project website and related public information 
channels.
The project has also continued to evolve through collaboration with City staff, including Traffic 
Engineering and the City Manager's office, with discussions focused on circulation, pedestrian 
connectivity, operational functionality, public safety, and architectural character. Feedback received 
during the original public outreach process and subsequent coordination efforts has helped inform 
refinements to the project design, including the development of the open stair tower concept, enhanced 
landscape integration, improved pedestrian experience along the public streets, and the incorporation of 
architectural screening and lighting features intended to contribute positively to the Downtown 
Scottsdale and Entertainment District environment.
The revised design continues to support the goals of the Downtown Scottsdale area by providing needed 
public parking infrastructure while emphasizing walkability, context-sensitive urban design, enhanced 
streetscape character, and improved connectivity to surrounding businesses, events, and public 
destinations. The project remains consistent with the City's ongoing efforts to support downtown vitality, 
tourism, and economic activity through infrastructure improvements that balance operational needs 
with thoughtful urban design considerations.

PUBLIC PRESENTATION SUMMARY & UPDATE 5.6.2026
Date: November 6, 2025 
Time: 5:30 PM
Location: City of Scottsdaie Community Design Studio 
Presenters:
Erin Walsh, City of Scottsdale
Matt Gorman, Arrington Watkins Architects Principal
Mandel McDonald, Willmeng Construction
The public presentation was held on November 6, 2025, at 5:30 p.m. at the City of Scottsdale Community 
Design Studio, located at 7506 E. Indian School Road.
• 
The presentation provided an overview of the project, including the project location and scope, 
exisbng site conditions, vehicular and pedestrian circulation patterns, the project background, a 
comparison of existing on-site parking versus the proposed parking structure, and an evaluation 
of the project's visual and scale impacts on the surrounding neighborhood.
• 
The public was informed that a rezoning of the parcel is required to move the project forward. 
The proposed zoning is consistent with the zoning of the adjacent parcel to the west and is 
compatible with the Scottsdale Entertainment District.
• 
Parking structure images used as design reference were presented together with conceptual 
material palette and finishes images that meet the Town design guidelines.
• 
Parking structure precedent images were presented as design references, along with a 
conceptual material palette and finish selections that align with the Town's adopted design 
guidelines. These materials were intended to illustrate the proposed architectural character, 
massing, and level of quality, while demonstrating how the project could integrate with the 
surrounding context and meet applicable aesthetic standards.
• 
During the presentation it was informed that Public Art will be incorporated into the project and 
the design team will work with the City during the process to identify areas for the incorporation 
of it, and the public will be kept informed.
THREE DESIGN OPTIONS WERE PRESENTED:
• 
Option 1 - Waveform: This concept features a concrete parking structure clad with perforated 
metal panels that are o:set from the building, providing both screening and a controlled level of 
transparency for security. Two stair enclosures—one along 6th Avenue and another along 
Stetson Drive—combine solid concrete walls with perforated metal panels, creating a secure 
environment while maintaining visibility for safety. The design also integrates landscaped 
planters on the first level, which serve to screen parked vehicles, enhance the visual experience, 
and provide shade for pedestrians. In addition, metal canopies along the south elevation extend 
shading for pedestrian areas, further improving comfort and usability. Overall, this concept 
blends security, functionality, and visual interest through the combination of materials, 
architectural features, and landscape elements.

• 
Option 2 - Aperture: This concept presents a more open architectural approach, with accent 
panels used to create framed compositions along the 6th Avenue and Stetson Drive elevations. 
The design emphasizes the concrete parking structure itself, complemented by concrete 
canopies that define the entry points and provide shade for pedestrians. The stair enclosures in 
this option feature an open design, incorporating protective railings and concrete elements that 
o:er both structural interest and sun protection. Overall, this concept balances openness and 
transparency with functional shading and pedestrian comfort, while maintaining a clear, 
cohesive visual language along the street frontages.
• 
Option 3 - District: This concept presents a modern contemporary design that combines 
elements from both the Waveform and Aperture options. It features the use of perforated 
panels, vertical aluminum celosia, and concrete canopies at the first level, complemented by 
landscaped planters. These planters provide visual screening for parked vehicles, enhance the 
pedestrian experience, and contribute to shading and comfort. The design balances openness 
and transparency with security and functional screening, creating a cohesive architectural 
response that aligns with the character of the Entertainment District. Stair enclosures in this 
concept also employ a semi-open design with integrated screening, maintaining safety while 
allowing visibility and architectural interest. Overall, Option 3 merges functional security, 
pedestrian comfort, and aesthetic appeal to create a contemporary parking structure that 
responds to its urban context.
• 
The presentation included conceptual nighttime renderings to illustrate how the proposed 
design responds to its surrounding context. These visuals demonstrated the project's integration 
with the neighborhood character and the broader Entertainment District's evening environment. 
Additionally, the renderings highlighted safety considerations, including visibility, lighting, and 
pedestrian circulation, helping the public understand how the design balances aesthetics, 
functionality, and security during nighttime hours.
PUBLIC COMMENTS AND FEEDBACK
• 
The project was received positively by attendees, who recognized the importance of additional 
parking in the area, particularly during weekends. Community members expressed that the new 
parking structure would provide significant benefits to adjacent businesses and support activity 
throughout the district. Attendees also acknowledged that improving parking availability would 
enhance the overall accessibility of the district.
• 
All members of the public in attendance indicated that Option 1 - Waveform was their preferred 
design choice. Among the key design elements that received positive feedback were:
o Architecture and materials: Attendees felt that the proposed architectural style and 
material palette were well-suited to the character of the district and complemented the 
surrounding area.
o Screening with transparency: The perforated metal panels and screening elements were 
appreciated for providing visual separation from parked vehicles while maintaining 
transparency for safety and visibility.
o Enclosed stairwells: The fully enclosed stair enclosures were noted as a valuable safety 
feature, providing secure vertical circulation while maintaining controlled visibility.
o Overall, the public expressed strong support for the Waveform concept, highlighting its 
successful balance of aesthetics, security, and integration with the district context.

Concerns / Considerations:
o
o
o
The inclusion of public restrooms was discussed. Some attendees supported their 
inclusion to address issues such as public urination, while others expressed concerns 
related to safety. After consideration of safety, maintenance, and potential nuisance 
issues, it was determined that public restrooms will not be incorporated into the design.
Suggestions were raised to provide additional screening to prevent parking garage users 
from having direct sightlines into adjacent buildings, particularly those along the east 
alley.
It was emphasized that the stair enclosures design prioritize safety by incorporating 
controlled transparency/ openness, ensuring the space is well-illuminated, and 
minimizing blind spots. These measures are intended to enhance visibility and deter 
potential security concerns.
■
The design team noted that the staircases in the Waveform option could 
incorporate design elements from the other concepts to address public 
concerns. This approach allows the project to maintain the preferred Waveform 
aesthetic while enhancing transparency, safety, and user comfort based on 
community feedback. The team emphasized that these adjustments could 
provide a balanced solution that responds to both functional requirements and 
public input.
GLOSSING REMARKS
Erin Walsh informed attendees that the presentation materials would be uploaded to the City's website 
and made availabie to the public within one day. She encouraged those in attendance to share this 
information with other members of the community, inviting them to review the presentation and submit 
additional comments or feedback. This approach was intended to broaden community participation 
beyond those present at the meeting and ensure that all interested parties have an opportunity to 
provide input.

INCORPORATION OF PUBLIC COMMENTS
The design team appreciates the time and participation of community members who attended the public 
meeting and provided thoughtful input regarding the proposed parking structure. The overall positive 
reception of the project, and recognition of its importance in supporting parking demand, particularly 
during weekends, reinforces the project's role in enhancing accessibility and supporting local businesses 
and district activity. This feedback confirms that the project aligns with broader community needs and 
contributes to the long-term vitality of the area.
The strong public preference for Option 1 - Waveform is acknowledged and the design team has been 
continue to advance the Waveform concept, maintaining its architectural character while ensuring that 
the final design reflects both functional requirements and community expectations. The perforated 
metal screening was particularly well received for its ability to provide visual separation while 
maintaining transparency for safety and visibility.
Several important considerations were also raised, and the design team has evaluated each item 
carefully.
• 
The enclosed stairwells were recognized as an important safety feature; however, concerns were 
raised regarding the potential for blind corners and areas with limited visibility that could 
diminish the sense of safety or allow concealment. Safety within the stair enclosures was 
therefore a key topic of discussion. In response to this feedback, the revised design incorporates 
a more open stair concept that enhances visibility, promotes clear and intuitive circulation, 
minimizes blind spots, and discourages loitering or unauthorized use. The design team is 
committed to applying best practices in safety and visibility, including well-illuminated spaces 
and controlled transparency. Additionally, the Waveform stair enclosures may incorporate 
refinements inspired by elements from the alternate concepts, ensuring the project maintains its 
preferred architectural identity while further strengthening safety, visibility, and overall user 
comfort. These refinements will be thoughtfully integrated to remain consistent with the overall 
design intent.
• 
Regarding the inclusion of public restrooms, while their potential benefits were acknowledged, 
concerns related to safety, maintenance, and long-term operational challenges were also 
identified. After careful evaluation in coordination with the project stakeholders, it was 
determined that public restrooms will not be included as part of the project scope, in order to 
ensure a safe, maintainable, and operationally e/icient facility.
• 
Community members also suggested enhancing screening in areas where direct sightlines into 
adjacent buildings may occur, particularly along the east alley. In response, the design team has 
incorporated additional screening along the alley-facing elevations to provide increased privacy 
for adjacent businesses while maintaining appropriate ventilation, visibility, and safety. These 
enhancements have been carefully integrated into the Waveform design through adjustments to 
perforation patterns, panel density, and placement, ensuring the project preserves its 
architectural integrity while responding to community concerns.
