KHOVNANIAN HOMES 
Submitted: April 25, 2024

Introduction 
 
This PHO request is for 
a remnant infill parcel 
on 
the 
northwest 
corner of 36th St. and 
Southern 
Avenue. 
The 
original 
C-1 
rezoning for this site 
was for an office 
development, 
but 
that 
never 
went 
forward. Years later a 
PHO was processed 
to change the zoning 
to accommodate a 
multifamily 
development, 
but 
that too never went 
forward.   
 
Now, a respected homebuilder, K. Hovnanian Homes (“KHOV”), is proposing a 
single-family townhome development with opportunities for home ownership. 
The new community would include the subject parcel shown above in gold 
(Parcel A) and the larger parcel to the north, outlined in Green (Parcel B).  
 
Parcel A and Parcel B were the subjects of two separate zoning cases, and thus 
separate PHO applications and narratives are being filed for each.   
 
Home Ownership  
 
As home prices and interest rates have increased, a growing number of 
Arizonans are being priced out of the opportunity to buy a home. This has been 
one of the contributing factors to the increase of multifamily development over 
the past five years. But KHOV’s proposal for this parcel would provide 
home-ownership opportunities to many families. KHOV has been developing the 
same type of townhome-style community being proposed here in other areas

3 | P a g e 
 
 
of Phoenix and those communities have been well received.   KHOV is proposing 
40 townhomes for parcel A, with a gross density of 8.0 dwelling units per acre. 
Another 192 townhomes are proposed for Parcel B. KHOV would integrate the 
two parcels together to form a single residential community that fits seamlessly 
into the surrounding community. Combining the two parcels into one 
community is a superior option to leaving the two parcels to develop separately.   
 
Development Information 
 
As noted in the map above, the subject site’s zoning designation is C-1, which 
allows for the type of product being proposed. The maximum building height 
proposed is 30 feet and two stories. The project would provide 4.86 acres of open 
space, which equates to approximately 26 percent of the site (gross). The 
landscape pallet will incorporate the use of drought tolerant trees and 
groundcovers that will provide a sense of identity and be compatible with the 
neighborhood and environmental conditions of the region.  
 
Stipulation Modification Requests 
 
Stipulation 1 – New Site Plan 
 
Below is our proposed revision to stipulation 1:  
 
The development shall be in general conformance with the site plan date 
stamped April _____, 2024 October 18, 2021, as modified by the following 
stipulations and approved by the Planning and Development Department.

4 | P a g e 
 
 
A new plan with a new product is proposed and thus the site plan must be 
updated.   
 
 
The 2021 site plan was for a 
multifamily rental product, whereas 
the 
present 
proposal 
is 
for 
a 
townhome ownership community. 
Because this narrative is limited to 
addressing the stipulations that apply 
to Parcel A, the new site plan to be 
substituted in would be the portion of 
the overall community plan that is 
outlined in gold to the right.  
 
This 
proposal 
for 
a 
townhome 
community will address the problem 
of the “missing middle.” This term was 
coined in 2010 and refers to a 
housing 
type 
that 
is 
between 
detached single-family and large 
multifamily 
complexes. 
Examples 
include 
duplexes, 
courtyard 
apartments, cottage clusters and 
townhomes. This type of product is an 
appropriate 
transition 
between 
single-family homes to the west and 
north and commerce park to the east.  Moreover, in today’s housing climate, it 
is a housing type that offers home ownership at an accessible level.   
 
Stipulation 4 - Bike Parking 
 
Below is our proposed revision to stipulation 4:  
 
4. 
THE DEVELOPER SHALL PROVIDE 4 SECURED BICYCLE PARKING 
SPACES FOR RESIDENTS AT A MINIMUM RATE REQUIRED BY CHAPTER 13, 
SECTION 1307.H FOR MULTI-FAMILY DEVELOPMENT, AS APPROVED BY THE 
PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT.

5 | P a g e 
 
 
The phrasing of the original stipulation makes sense for multifamily development. 
In multi-level apartments, it’s important to have bike parking in common areas. 
Otherwise, people are forced to haul their bikes up and down the stairs every 
day or to fit them into an apartment that may more limited space. Here, the 
residents of this townhome community will all have garages, backyards and 
first-floor living space. They will have no reason to park bicycles in a common 
area. That is why this type of stipulation is not appropriate for single-family 
communities.  
 
KHOV is, however, willing to install four bicycles parking spaces. This will 
accommodate anyone cycling to the open space and wishing to lock their bike 
while they play—even though this too is not terribly likely.   
 
Stipulation 5 and 6 – Standard Archaeological Stipulations  
 
Stipulations 5 and 6 are the standard archaeological stipulations. Both of these 
have been satisfied and thus it makes sense to simply remove them.  
 
Conclusion  
 
The modifications requested in this PHO are reasonable and will help to provide 
for the missing middle housing options. The requested modifications in this 
application and the companion application will align the stipulations of the two 
sites to allow for a new for-sale housing product type that is in short supply and 
very much needed to help provide solutions for home ownership.  
 
The core of our request is the modification of several stipulations that were either 
geared toward a rental multifamily community or have already been completed 
and are no longer required. The requested stipulations are reasonable under the 
context. The site plan is changed and should be updated. The bicycle parking 
requirement needs to be updated to reflect a single-family environment where 
homeowners have garages and places to store their personal belongings, and 
satisfied stipulations can be removed. 
 
The City has succeeded in increasing the supply of apartments and other 
for-rent housing products. But there has been a shortage of entry-level housing 
products that allows young families to enter into the housing market. We feel the 
proposed subdivision meets the needs of the community and provides this 
missing middle.  We urge the city to grant the requested modifications.

PHO-1-21--Z-69-08-8 
Location: 
Northwest corner of 36th Street and Southern Avenue 
Existing Zoning:  C-1 
Acreage:  
5.0 
Request: 
1) Modification of Stipulation 1 regarding general 
conformance with the site plan and elevations date 
stamped July 3, 2008. 
2) Technical corrections to Stipulations 4 and 5. 
Applicant: 
Avenue North 
Owner: 
Hermes, Inc. 
Representative: 
Benjamin Tate, Withey Morris PLC 
 
ACTIONS 
 
Planning Hearing Officer Recommendation: The Planning Hearing Officer 
recommended approval with a modification and additional stipulations. 
 
Village Planning Committee (VPC) Recommendation: The South Mountain 
Village Planning Committee heard this case on October 12, 2021 and 
recommended denial as filed and approval with a modification and an additional 
stipulation by a vote of 9-0-1. 
 
DISCUSSION 
 
Benjamin Tate, representative with Withey Morris, provided an overview of the 
original rezoning case and the PHO request. He stated the request to modify 
Stipulation 1 regarding general conformance with the site plan and elevations will 
retain the MUA landscaping standards as desired by the South Mountain Village 
Planning Committee (VPC). He noted that the VPC recommended additional 
stipulations regarding the elevations to include enhanced architectural standards. 
He stated that the stipulation was intended to address the street-facing sides of 
each building.  
 
Adam Stranieri, Planning Hearing Officer, stated there were no concerns 
regarding the intensity, use, or layout provided on the proposed site plan. He 
reviewed the language recommended by the VPC regarding elevations and

Planning Hearing Officer Summary of October 20, 2021 
Application PHO-1-21--Z-69-08-8 
Page 2 
 
design guidelines. Ryan Hartman, representative with Avenue North, stated they 
are comfortable with the language as recommended by the VPC. Mr. Stranieri 
asked for clarification regarding the proposed language of Stipulation 1 regarding 
MUA standards. Mr. Tate stated the intent of the proposal is to follow the 
landscaping standards per the MUA zoning district, but not the common open 
space standards which require 25% open space. Mr. Stranieri noted that he 
proposes that the content regarding MUA landscaping standards be separated 
from the other language in Stipulation 1 regarding conformance with the site 
plan. He stated that the Archaeology Department recommends additional 
stipulations regarding archaeologically sensitive areas. He stated that the Street 
Transportation Department recommends an additional stipulation regarding 
bicycle parking. 
 
FINDINGS 
 
1) The stipulated site plan depicts a large-scale, mixed-use development 
consisting of two approximately 20,000 square foot buildings providing 
ground-floor retail space and second-floor office uses.  Proposed buildings 
were two stories and 30 feet in height.  The project did not develop, and 
the property remains vacant.  The proposed site plan depicts a multifamily 
residential development consisting of 47 units at a density of 9.39 dwelling 
units per gross acre.  The buildings are two stories and approximately 28 
feet in height.  Proposed open space is approximately 5.3%.  The 
proposal is compatible with the diverse land uses in the surrounding area.  
Immediately to the east is a large amount of employment-generating 
Commerce Park type uses.  To the north are existing single-family 
residences and a planned multifamily development.  To the south are 
extensive agricultural uses.  To the west is a mixture of single-family, 
multifamily, and agricultural uses.   
 
2) The applicant’s request for modification of Stipulation 1 regarding general 
conformance and additional standards is recommended for approval with 
a modification and additional stipulations.   
 
The first modification is to remove the general conformance requirement 
for conceptual elevations. See Finding #3 for detailed discussion 
regarding elevations. 
 
The second modification is to remove the requirement for specific regard 
to the quantity and location of open space.  In the original rezoning case, 
this stipulation was established to require that the developer provide 
common open space consistent with the MUA district, which requires a 
minimum 25% of the net site area of a mixed-use development to be set 
aside as open space accessible to the public.  There is no comparable 
standard in the C-1 zoning district.  Additionally, this standard would not 
apply to a multifamily development in the MUA district.  The applicant’s

Planning Hearing Officer Summary of October 20, 2021 
Application PHO-1-21--Z-69-08-8 
Page 3 
 
request is consistent with the R-3 zoning district, which requires a 
minimum 5% of the gross area be provided as common area.  The 
applicant is proposing 5.3%.  Therefore, this existing language is no 
longer relevant to the current proposal. 
 
The third modification is to relocate existing stipulation language, 
regarding compliance with MUA landscaping standards for quantity and 
type of landscape materials and parking lot landscaping standards, to a 
new stand-alone stipulation.  These requirements are unrelated to the site 
plan and should be separated from the content of Stipulation 1.   
 
3) The South Mountain Village Planning Committee recommended two 
additional stipulations regarding elevations that are recommended for 
adoption.  The Committee expressed concerns regarding design continuity 
on all building sides and a lack of architectural detailing and features.  
Specifically, these concerns were centered around rear elevations, given 
that the proposed conceptual site plan depicts many units backing to the 
public right-of-way along 36th Street and Southern Avenue.  These 
stipulations establish enhanced requirements regarding exterior finishes 
and four-sided architecture.   They address the Committee’s concerns 
regarding these issues and the additional stipulations will allow the 
applicant and staff flexibility to modify the conceptual elevations to 
incorporate additional enhancements, particularly on the rear of the 
buildings.    
 
4) The Street Transportation Department recommends an additional 
stipulation regarding required bicycle parking.  This stipulation is 
recommended for inclusion.   The subject site is in proximity to identified 
multi-use trails along the east side of 36th Street, west side of 32nd Street, 
and Vineyard Road. The development site is abutting bike lanes along 
Southern Avenue and along other nearby streets (i.e., 32nd Street, 40th 
Street, Roeser Road). In addition, the subject site is less than a mile from 
the Western Canal which offers regional multi-modal connections. Bicycle 
infrastructure supports the established and future planned multi-modal 
network and promotes the goals of the City Council approved Complete 
Streets Policy. 
 
5) The site is identified as archaeologically sensitive and two additional 
stipulations are recommended to be included to address requirements for 
archaeological survey and testing.

7) PHO-1-21--Z-69-08-8: Presentation, discussion, and possible recommendation 
regarding a request to modify stipulations of entitlement for the property located 
at the northwest corner of 36th Street and Southern Avenue. Request to modify 
Stipulation No. 1 regarding general conformance to the site plan and elevations 
date stamped July 3, 2008. Technical corrections to Stipulation Nos. 4 and 5. 
 
No members of the public registered to speak on this item. 
 
Enrique Bojórquez, staff, introduced himself and provided a presentation on this 
case noting the location of the site, existing zoning, and proposed use. The 
requested modification to the case stipulation for Z-69-08-8 were presented and 
the new proposed site plan plus building elevations were shown. He then invited 
the applicant to provide a brief presentation to the committee. 
 
Benjamin Tate, with Whitey Morris PLC, introduced himself as the applicant and 
discussed the location of the site, surrounding uses, and existing site conditions. 
A history of the site was provided, followed by the new proposed site plan and 
elements within that plan which were modified slightly from the site plan provided 
to the committee. Renderings of the proposed site were shown, and the 
requested stipulation modification was presented. Elements from the General 
Plan were discussed, and the presentation was concluded. 
 
Greg Brownell stated that the building elevations look very plain and cheap with 
the materials depicted. The partnership with Tiger Mountain Foundation is good, 
but he does not know how the relationship will continue. He discussed the 
landscaping and adding a new stipulation to allow flexibly with the spacing of 
trees. Mr. Tate responded that he would be concerned with adding a stipulation 
that might have unintended consequences regarding the landscaping but 
appreciates the suggestion. 
 
Mr. Brownell stated that the stipulation can remain, but the applicant should 
work with a certified arborist to determine the spacing of the trees. Mr. Tate

responded that he prefers to not over-regulate the standards, as it makes sense 
from a practical perspective. He discussed the repositioning of retail uses and 
critical mass in the area. 
 
Emma Viera asked if drought-tolerant trees could be used. Mr. Tate responded 
that tree species from the Mixed-Use Agricultural (MUA) zoning district were 
required per the previous stipulation on the case. 
 
Dr. Viera asked staff if drought-tolerant tree species were required, as some of 
the tree species proposed are not appropriate due to high-water usage. Mr. 
Bojórquez, responded that drought-tolerant plant species are typically required 
along perimeter landscaping, but in this case, the previous stipulation requires 
landscaping to adhere to the MUA zoning district plant list. The committee could 
vote to change this stipulation. 
 
Emma Viera asked if cool pavement could be used in this project. Ryan 
Hartman, with Avenue North, responded that this had not been considered but 
he can look into this. 
 
Fatima Muhammad Roque asked if there were other community gathering 
areas besides the pool. Mr. Tate responded that the focus was to create open 
space areas where someone can recreate. He discussed the sidewalk along 36th 
Street that will connect residents to Esteban Park, north of the site. 
 
Ms. Muhammad asked if there will be a clubhouse for residents to use and how 
far is Esteban Park from this site. Mr. Tate responded that a barbecue area, 
ramada and pool were some of the amenities provided. This for-rent community 
is planned to feel like a townhome community. 
Ms. Muhammad asked the following questions to the applicant: 
• Why was a clubhouse not provided? 
• How many parking spaces will there be on the site? 
• Are any balconies proposed? 
• Where is your surface water retention area located? 
 
Mr. Tate responded that the project is intended to feel like a townhome 
community where it is convenient for residents to walk back to their home. The 
site plan proposed exceeds the required number of parking stalls and no 
balconies are proposed since adjacent to the existing residential community. 
 
Mr. Hartman discussed the required parking and stated that water retention will 
be along open space areas. 
 
Ms. Muhammad asked if a traffic signal light will be required. Mr. Tate 
responded that a traffic signal warrant analysis was done for the project to the 
north, but not traffic light was warranted.

Ms. Muhammad asked for an update regarding public outreach. Mr. Tate stated 
that a series of conversations with the adjacent HOA had taken place, and a 
letter of support was issued for this project by the HOA. 
 
Ms. Muhammad asked for clarification on the location of electric charging 
stations. Mr. Tate responded that these will be inside the garages. 
 
Mr. Hartman added that they may install electrical wiring in other parking areas 
in case electric charging stations are placed there in the future. 
 
Ms. Muhammad asked what the market-rate for these units and planned project 
completion date is. Mr. Hartman responded that 85 units took about 24 months 
to build nearby, thus expects this project to take 15 to 18 months or early 2022 to 
break ground. 
 
Ms. Muhammad asked the following questions: 
• Has a community benefit agreement been considered? 
• What will be your application process and fees? 
• Have you considered setting aside several units to help members in the 
community? 
 
Mr. Tate responded that the operator must be careful with Fair Housing Laws. 
Mr. Hartman added that at their 18th Street and Baseline Road project, they 
refund fees to people who have previous convictions. Application fees usually 
cover the cost associated with processing the application. 
 
Ms. Muhammad asked how rent deposits were handled. Mr. Hartman 
responded that usually one-months rent is required, but there are great programs 
that renters can use to get further assistance. 
 
Ms. Muhammad asked if these rental assistance programs were part of the 
application process. Mr. Hartman discussed the management of the property 
and providing housing for people. 
 
Ms. Muhammad asked for clarification on the square footage of the buildings. 
Mr. Hartman discussed the square footage and floor plans. These will be three-
bedroom units proposed on this site. 
 
Vice Chair Marchuk thanked the applicant for their work. He asked if elevation 
enhancements were considered. He asked staff to display stipulation language 
on the screen regarding building elevation enhancements.

Mr. Hartman is happy to incorporate the stipulation language, but also must 
consider the cost associated with it. He will work with his team to update the 
building elevations. 
 
Vice Chair Marchuk stated that he wants the building elevations to look 
appealing. Mr. Tate accepted the stipulation proposed. 
 
Mr. Hartman would like to keep a solid wall along Southern Avenue but can 
incorporate some view fencing along the 36th Street frontage. Vice Chair 
Marchuk agrees with this proposal. 
 
Mr. Hartman discussed fencing changes. 
 
Vice Chair Marchuk discussed the community and changes to the site plan. 
 
Ms. Muhammad is concerned with impacts to elderly or disabled persons due to 
the two-story design of the community. Mr. Hartman responded that his 
company owns other communities in the area with one-story floor plans that 
could be offered. 
 
Chairwoman Daniels stated that the building elevations could be improved. But 
that the new stipulation will help improve these elevations. She discussed the 
community.

8) Z-TA-3-19: Presentation, discussion, and possible recommendation regarding a 
request to amend Chapters 3, 5 and 13 of the Phoenix Zoning Ordinance to 
expand the Walkable Urban (WU) Code boundaries citywide and amend 
Appendix A - Zoning Fee Schedule to include fees for WU Code Transect 
Districts and administrative temporary use permits. 
 
Two members of the public registered to speak on this item. 
 
Enrique Bojórquez, staff, introduced himself and provided a presentation on this 
citywide text amendment case Z-TA-3-19. He provided a summary of the request 
involving the expansion of the Walkable Urban (WU) code applicability area, noting 
the existing boundaries where WU code is available today. He discussed the need 
for this text amendment given the expansion of mass-transit to other parts of the 
city. The various WU Code Transects were explained, providing examples of low, 
medium and high-intensity transects. This proposal would allow property owners to 
rezone to WU Code citywide and update standards regarding single-family attached 
standards outside of TOD areas. This proposal does not rezone any property, does 
not modify the current rezoning process, does not modify the applicability or 
standards of adopted City policy plans including TOD District plans. Addendum A of 
the staff report revises applicability of regulatory overlay districts and plans, plus 
adds Administrative Temporary Use Permit fees. An overview of existing zoning 
tools, rezoning evaluation process and impacts was provided. Staff recommends
