RE: 
 
Chavez Residence  
Rezoning and Preliminary Development Plan (PDP) Approval Request 
3953 W. Chandler Blvd in Chandler 85226 
 
My name is Eduardo Chavez, and I am building a new single-family residence for my family on property I 
currently own, located east of the southeast corner of Chandler Boulevard and McClintock Drive. I am 
requesting a rezoning and PDP approval because there are three large existing SRP easements for 
irrigation water lines running through my property that restrict the buildable area and conflict with 
required setbacks. So, I need to rezone the property so I can build my home with modified setbacks.  
  
Site Information: 
The project site includes two separate parcels, APN 301-66-004A and APN 301-66-005 that are currently 
zoned SF-8.5. The total combined area site area is approximately 0.40 acres. To avoid the existing 
underground irrigation lines, the proposed home will be located near the northwest corner of the 
property with a front yard setback of approximately 16 feet.   
 
The proposed zoning is SF-8.5/PDP to match the surrounding residential properties in the Pueblo Alto 
subdivision. There are three existing single-family homes adjacent to the south of my property and an 
undeveloped single-family residential lot adjacent to the east that are all zoned SF-8.5.  Adjacent to the 
west of my property are three lots owned by the City of Chandler, also zoned SF-8.5, which are currently 
used as a retention basin.   
 
Proposal: 
Current zoning is SF-8.5, with 20’ front setback, 5’ and 10’ side setbacks, and a 10’ rear setback. The 
maximum allowed site intensity is 40%, and maximum building height is 35’. 
 
I am proposing a new 3,332 square feet home that is designed in a modern contemporary style that fits 
within the community. Proposed setbacks are 16’ front setback, 5’ side setbacks, and 5’ rear setback. 
Because of the existing irrigation easements across the property, the home is restricted to the area 
shown at the northwest corner of the lot, with an actual front setback of 16.92’. Building materials will 
include traditional framing and stucco methods. The proposed two-story home features a four-car 
garage, outdoor patio and balcony near the west property line, and an enclosed courtyard facing the 
street. Because the home is rotated on the site, our views of the existing homes south of our property 
from the proposed second floor balcony are restricted. There will be a painted masonry view wall with 
wrought iron fencing along the Chandler Boulevard that matches the existing City owned masonry 
theme wall to the west. The property will be secured with vehicle gates facing Chandler Boulevard near 
the east end of the property, with a large pull-out area to minimize impact to traffic on Chandler 
Boulevard. The home and site will be of a high quality that will contribute positively to the existing 
neighborhood. I am looking forward be being a part of this community. 
 
Thank you, 
 
 
Eduardo Chavez, property owner
