INTRODUCTION Reserve 100, LLC (dba “Blandford Homes”) is the proposed developer of a high quality, premium, residential development on 40.74+ gross (37. 26+ net) acres at the northeast corner of McQueen Road and Hunt Highway (the “Site”). Blandford Homes is a locally owned homebuilder that is well known and respected for building beautiful high-quality homes and residential communities. The Site was the home of one of Chandler’s most well-known residents, Tex Earnhardt, for more than 50 years. The size and location of the Site, the quality of the surrounding residential development, and the long association of the property with Mr. Earnhardt and his family warrants special attention in its design and development. The development will be a gated residential community known as “Earnhardt Ranch.” Blandford Homes is working with the Earnhardt family to incorporate elements in the main entry and in the main park amenity area that will respectfully pay tribute to Tex Earnhardt’s legacy and association with the Site. Earnhardt Ranch will be a premium gated residential community that is compatible with and be a high-quality addition to the existing community. To achieve this, Blandford Homes requests the Site be zoned Planned Area Development (PAD) for Residential uses, along with Preliminary Development Plan (PDP) and Preliminary Plat approvals. Simultaneous with this request Blandford Homes is requesting the Site be annexed into the City of Chandler (the “City”). II. SITE AND SURROUNDING AREA An Aerial Map of the Site is attached as Exhibit 1. The Site is bounded by McQueen Road on the west, an existing single-family residential development to the north, and east (Springfield Phase 5 and 9), and Hunt Highway on the south. The Site is zoned Rural-43 in unincorporated Maricopa County. The City’s General Plan designates the Site as Residential and is within the Southeast Chandler Area Plan (SECAP). The SECAP designates the Site as Traditional Suburban Character. This designation permits a density range between 2.5 du/ac and 3.5 du/ac (provided Community Amenities for Density Incentives are included in the development plans). Developments in this designation should convey a rural/agrarian theme. As is shown on the development plans Earnhardt Ranch proposes a rich and extensive rural/agrarian theme. III. PROPOSED PAD AND PDP A, PAD and PDP Overview One of the objectives of PAD zoning is “to provide for a coordinated and compatibly arranged variety of land uses through innovative site planning.” Another objective is “to provide a maximum choice in the types of environments for residential, commercial, and industrial uses and facilities.” The intent of this PAD is to accomplish those objectives by rezoning the Site to PAD Single-Family Residential. The proposed PAD Single-Family Residential accomplishes the PAD zoning objectives. Earnhardt Ranch proposes a residential community of 100 residential lots with gated access, private streets, and common open space areas, including a centrally located recreation area. See Exhibit 2, Conceptual Site Plan and Exhibit 3, Conceptual Landscape Plan. The Site proposes two different lot sizes—60' x 128' and 65' x 140', with many of the lots oversized, ranging in area from approximately 7,680 square feet to 9,100 square feet (largest lots are over 11,000 square feet, resulting in an overall net site density of 2.68 du/ac. The Site includes approximately 8.21 acres (224%) of open space made up of common area landscape, retention basins, and programmed recreation areas. The Site includes a primary gated entry on McQueen Road, with an emergency and a maintenance vehicle only ingress/egress access drive next to the north property line on McQueen. Earnhardt Ranch is designed to embrace the rural character of the area by providing for an expansive landscape setback on McQueen Road, integrating meaningful geometry within the internal street network and preserving an internal view corridor. Earnhardt Ranch is proposed as a premium gated single family detached residential community, with particular focus on creating an attractively landscaped perimeter with iconic entry monuments, tree-lined entry drive, varied theme walls and view fencing. See Exhibit 4, Perspectives and Exhibit 5, Entry Plan. Inside the community Earnhardt Ranch will have a prestigious private enclave living environment. The internal streets have walkway connections in open spaces leading to the main central amenity area. Through the design, Blandford Homes has enhanced the livability, functionality, safety and visual interest for the future residents and guests. B. Landscaping Earnhardt Ranch will embrace its cultural heritage through an elegant, agrarian rustic style landscape character. See Exhibit 3, Conceptual Landscape Plan. The landscaping theme for Earnhardt Ranch is for a lush, green plant palette with deciduous trees such as Red Push Pistache and Live Oak with grassed lawn areas at the main entry and main park amenity area. Tree canopies will be organized in rows, emulating the existing conditions on the Site, creating a strong identity both on the perimeter and interior common areas. This structured canopy will be further enhanced with organized understory landscape materials. These materials will provide scale, color, texture, and overall impact to the aesthetic of the community. The landscape tracts along McQueen Road and Hunt Hwy are tree lined with shrubs and decomposed granite. Cc. Amenities and Open Space Earnhardt Ranch is envisioned as a family-oriented, single-family detached, residential community and will feature approximately 8.21 acres (22+%) of open space for its residents. The community is planned with quality amenities consistent with Blandford Homes’ desire to create an upscale community where residents will be able to live, relax, play, and socialize in a high quality and pleasing residential environment. Consistent with the goals and vision of the Southeast Chandler Area Plan, the open space areas provide deeper setbacks and view corridors. The open space areas will be thoughtfully landscaped in a patterned and textured agrarian character with the focus of providing shade over walkways and within amenity areas as well as establishing a unique atmosphere for residents. The street network and sidewalks within the community will provide residents with convenient access to the primary amenity which is programmed to provide for a variety of outdoor recreational activities and to include an outdoor “garden” area that will pay tribute to the property and the family which occupied it. The focal point of the community amenities and open space will be an approximate 3.24- acre central park amenity area that is prominently featured for all that access the development. See Exhibit 6, Amenities Plan. When a resident or visitor enters through the main entry gate they will see an impressive landscaped open space area. Centered in that landscaped area will be an amenity activity area that will include an oversized barn-like ramada, outdoor courtyard seating area, event lawn, and gazebo pavilion ramada, tot lot climbing structure, and % basketball court, all in a rural country ranch theme. The layout and programming of this central amenity is to create a flexible activity and event space for residents, guests, and families. A key feature of the central amenity is a proposed “garden or corral area” that will pay tribute to Tex Earnhardt, with a story board or display panel recounting some of Tex’s and the Earnhardt family story on the property. See Exhibit 7, Character Images. D. Building Elevations Blandford Homes is proposing nine (9) floor plans in two floor plan series. The Craftsman Series (5 plans) are 40’ & 45’ wide floor plans that will fit on the 60’ wide lots. The Artisan Series (4 plans) are 50’ wide floor plans that will fit on the 65’ wide lots. The floor plans range in size from 2,279 square feet — 4,219 square feet. Six (6) of the plans are single-story homes and three (3) are two-story plans. Each floor plan in the Craftsman Series and in the Artisan Series will offer up to five elevations. More than five (5) elevation choices per plan are shown in the detailed floor plan and elevation submittal, with the caveat that a minimum of five (5) floor plan choices will be offered per plan. See Exhibit 8, Elevations and Floor Plans. Blandford Homes is known for the distinctiveness, variety, diversity, and quality of the elevations on its homes. Every elevation will have a covered front porch on the front of the home. Some elevations will have an open front courtyard on the front of the home. The front facing garages on all floor plans are located behind the front porch and are located behind the main living area or side turn garage on all single-story floor plans. On two-story plans the front facing garages are located behind the front porch or side turn garage, but in some instances are in line with the living area of the home. On those floor plans, additional architectural detailing is provided on the 2™ story elevations to provide varied elevation planes and architectural details such as pop-outs, gable ends on rooms, varied roof lines, dormers, balconies or tower elements. Each elevation will have a primary body material (i.e., stucco, brick, or stone) and (with the exception of the Spanish elevation for stylistic reasons) will have a 2"4 accent material that is distinctly different from the primary material (i.e., if the primary material is stucco, there will be brick or stone or wood accent columns, footer skirts, towers, pop-out walls etc., depending on the particular elevation). See Exhibit 9, Color & Materials. There will be several accent elements per elevation such as stucco pop-outs or insets, wrought irons railings or decorative wrought iron details, shutters, ceramic tile insets, exposed rafter tails or beams, corbels, porch columns or posts and so on depending on the elevation. Particular attention has been given to provide 4-sided architecture details and to ensure that all three (3) to-story plans do not have a box on box appearance on either the front or rear elevations. Elevation styles include: Craftsman Series - any one floor plan will have a minimum of five (5) choices from the following: Spanish Cottage Bungalow Country French Farmhouse Andalusian Prairie Craftsman Artisan Series - any one floor plan will have a minimum of five (5) choices from the following: Spanish Vintage Farmhouse Rural Mediterranean Andalusian Cottage E. Walls and Entry Monumentation The theme walls, view fencing, and entry monument have been designed to be consistent with the home elevations and landscaping theme. See Exhibit 11, Wall Plan and Elevations and Exhibit 12 Monument Sign. As illustrated in Exhibits 5 and 10, the walls, entry monuments, gated entries, pedestrian gates, rail fencing and view fencing are designed to provide a substantial, grounded, earthy, subtly elegant, quality appearance through materials, color, design details and location. Quality materials are proposed including slump block, stone, brick, wrought iron and steel. At the main entry, substantial entry walls with arched cap bands and planter footers are proposed in slump block, stone and brick, all in earth tones, and will contain the monument signage lettering in back lit channel lettering. The monumentation at the main entry is rustic ranch inspired, utilizing combinations of materials and finishes to emphasize uniqueness and contrast. The main entry monumentation utilizes vertical massing and horizontal scale to create compression and focus at the arrival point. This will allow the residents to feel as though they have “arrived” at Earnhardt Ranch. Additionally at the main entry is a rustic ranch themed gate house within an expansive landscaped (treed) island in the center of separated “carriage-way”. See Exhibit 10, Gate House Elevation. The gates are proposed to be powder coated painted steel with a rural agrarian or ranch theme carried through the vehicular gates and pedestrian gates. The vehicular gates will have the initials “ER” for Earnhardt Ranch (or similar detail) etched in them. Rail fences are proposed as a decorative enhancement to provide a rural flavor and additional variety. To add interest along expanses of wall and to provide visual windows into the community, at certain locations partial view wall/fence and full view fence are provided. A hierarchy of walls are proposed with a primary theme wall on the exterior perimeter locations, and a secondary theme wall on the interior block end locations. F. Design Considerations Adjacent to Springfield Great care has taken place in designing Earnhardt Ranch to be compatible with the existing Springfield community. Along the east common property line: (1) no lots back to the existing homes; (2) all of the first lots that side or front towards the existing homes will be restricted to single story only floor plans; and (3) a minimum of a 12’ wide landscape tract, varying in width up to 20’ will be provided next to a 5” strip of land that the Springfield HOA owns (Tract R in Springfield Block 9 and the west 5’ of Tract S in Springfield Block 5). The two tracts combined will provide an effective landscape buffer between the two communities varying in width from a minimum of 17’ to 25’ to provide screen trees, vegetation, decompose granite, and a physical separation. Along the north where the lots back up along the north property line, the following design considerations are included: (1) an existing 60-foot wide drainage and landscape tract creates a buffer between Earnhardt Ranch and the existing homes; (2) extra lot depth is proposed for lots 16 — 22 in Earnhardt Ranch, gradually increasing from 140 feet deep to 150 feet deep, and, with the increased depth of the lots the homes will be setback approximately 35’ or more from the existing rear wall, creating the “look” of a minimum of a 95’ setback from the rear (or side) lot walls of the existing homes in the Springfield community; and (3) lot 22 is proposed to be restricted to a single story only home. G. SECAP Development Standards and Community Amenities for Density Incentives Earnhardt Ranch satisfies the additional development standards for PADs: Regulation Development Standard On average, provide 45-foot wide landscaped setback (measured from the curb line to the fence wall) along arterials. An 80-foot (average) wide landscape setback is provided along McQueen Road and Hunt Highway. Use subdivision techniques that reduce the number of houses backing up to arterial streets. Lots are proposed to back up to McQueen Road and Hunt Highway, which will be mitigated by extensive landscaping and extra lot depth in the lots backing to Hunt Highway and staggers in the walls. Provide staggers or other breaks in perimeter fence walls adjoining arterial streets. Staggers or other breaks are provided in the perimeter fence walls along the arterial streets. There are staggers and breaks on McQueen Road where no wall section is longer than 195’. Wall staggers are proposed on Hunt Hwy. Provide rural character entry features from arterial streets. A tural character entry feature is proposed on McQueen Road including the use of a tree- lined dual carriage-way entry, theme walls, gates, a rustic ranch themed gatehouse. The entry way incorporates theme walls using traditional materials such as slump block, stone, brick caps and steel gates with a rural crossed bar fence pattern, and a rail fence detail to create a rural ranch style. This theme is enhanced by a tree-lined entry way, lawn area and pavered drives. When backing onto an arterial street, the rear yard setback for a two-story elevation shall be a minimum of 40 feet, a minimum of 30 feet for a one-story elevation. Blandford Homes requests the setback along Hunt Highway be reduced to 30 feet for a two- story home and 20 feet for a one-story home. An additional 10’ of lot depth is provided in the lots backing to Hunt Hwy as an off-set to the requested reduction. Side yards shall be a minimum of 10 feet on each side, with a minimum of 20 feet separation between homes. Side yard setbacks of 5 feet and 10 feet are proposed for an aggregate of 15’ on the lot and a minimum of 10’ between homes Additionally, under the SECAP, to achieve a density of 2.5 du/ac to 2.75 du/ac (Increment 1), a community must provide the two required elements and the optional elements totaling a minimum of two points. Earnhardt Ranch’s design satisfies the two required elements and meets two of the optional elements. Appendix A identifies the Community Amenities planned for Earnhardt Ranch that qualify for the required Density Incentives for Increment 1. H. Subdivision Diversity Elements Earnhardt Ranch is designed to meet the City’s required and optional Residential Subdivision Diversity Standards for subdivision design. Appendix B identifies the Subdivision Diversity Standards (required and optional) that Earnhardt Ranch satisfies. vA Architectural Diversity Elements Earnhardt Ranch is designed to meet the City’s required and optional Residential Architectural Diversity Standards for subdivision design. Appendix C identifies the Subdivision Diversity Standards (required and optional) that Earnhardt Ranch satisfies. J.
