PROPOSAL 
4. 
The proposal was developed utilizing the PUD zoning district. The Planned Unit 
Development (PUD) is intended to create a built environment that is superior to 
that produced by conventional zoning districts and design guidelines. Using a 
collaborative and comprehensive approach, an applicant authors and proposes 
standards and guidelines that are tailored to the context of a site on a case-by-
case basis. Where the PUD Development Narrative is silent on a requirement, 
the applicable Zoning Ordinance provisions will be applied. 
 
 
5.  
Below is a summary of the proposed standards for the subject site as described 
in the attached PUD Development Narrative date stamped April 19, 2024. The 
proposed standards were designed to promote many of the Walkable Urban 
Code standards. 
 
 
6. 
List of Uses  
The Development Narrative lists the permitted uses as those identified in Section 
1306, T4 standards of the Phoenix Zoning Ordinance. 
 
 
7. 
Development Standards  
The PUD development narrative proposes development standards consistent 
with Walkable Urban Code Transect 4:3, with some modifications:

AREA PLANS, OVERLAY DISTRICT, AND INITIATIVES  
18. Transit Oriented Development Strategic Policy Framework  
The Transit Oriented Development Strategic Policy Framework, originally 
adopted in 2013, and later amended in 2016 and 2018, identifies policies and 
place types that are designed to shape walkable and mixed-use environments 
and focus redevelopment within a quarter mile of high capacity transit stations.  
The subject line is about a quarter mile from the proposed station at 79th Avenue 
and Interstate 10. The identified environment for the 79th Avenue/ Interstate 10 
station area is Suburban Commuter Center. A Suburban Commuter Center is a 
place type characterized by medium to low intensity uses, with building heights 
typically from two to four stories, with incentive heights of up to seven stories. 
Land uses may include mid-rise office, hotel, commuter serving retail and limited 
housing such as apartments and live/work. The utilization of the Walkable Urban 
Code for the framework for the PUD is consistent with the policies of the TOD 
Strategic Policy Framework. 
 
 
19. Maryvale Core Plan 
The Maryvale Village Core Plan, adopted in 2012 (GPA-MV-2-11-7), is intended 
promote a more urban environment conducive to TOD with mixed-use 
multifamily over retail and offices, markets, community services, public open 
spaces, and a smaller block pattern to contribute to a more comfortable 
pedestrian landscape. The subject site is designated as an Area for Change. 
Areas of Change are areas where the community supports more substantial 
redevelopment, and it is considered a Minor – Walkable Suburban Center place 
type. This place type is envisioned to be a suburban neighborhood destination 
designed for greater pedestrian convenience, safety, and comfort. 
  
The Core Plan identifies 81st Avenue as a Walkable Local Street, as Walkable 
Local is designated for streets within the Walkable Suburban Place Type. This 
Street Type is distinguished by its function as a pedestrian-oriented, low activity 
neighborhood street. This Street Type is designed to carry low traffic volumes at 
low speeds. One travel lane is provided in each direction and wide enough to 
allow on-street parking. Detached sidewalks lined with tree rows and infrequent 
driveway crossings are typical and bicycle lanes are not provided.  
 
Mobility Policy B.5. requires appropriately spaced street trees in order to provide 
additional shading and buffers between sidewalks and vehicle travel lanes.  
 
Stipulation No. 1.c requires a detached sidewalk along 81st Avenue to ensure 
walkability of this local street in compliance with the Maryvale Village Core Plan 
the Walkable Suburban Street Type standards, and the Complete Street Guiding 
Principles. 
 
 
20. Housing Phoenix Plan  
In June 2020, the Phoenix City Council approved the Housing Phoenix Plan. 
This Plan contains policy initiatives for the development and preservation of 
housing with vision of creating a stronger and more vibrant Phoenix through 
increased housing options for residents at all income levels and family sizes.

Staff Report: Z-17-23-5 
April 30, 2024 
Page 8 of 13 
 
Phoenix’s rapid population growth and housing underproduction has led to a 
need for over 163,000 new housing units. Current shortages of housing supply 
relative to demand are a primary reason why housing costs are increasing.  
 
The proposed development supports the Plan’s goal of preserving or creating 
50,000 housing units by 2030 by contributing to a variety housing types that will 
address the supply shortage at a more rapid pace while using underutilized land 
in a more sustainable fashion. The PUD proposes 62 new housing units which 
add to the diversity of housing stock within the Maryvale Village. 
 
 
21.  Complete Streets Guiding Principles 
In 2014, the Phoenix City Council adopted the Complete Streets Guiding 
Principles. The principles are intended to promote improvements that provide an 
accessible, safe, and connected transportation system to include all modes, 
such as bicycles, pedestrians, transit, and vehicles. Detached sidewalks will be 
provided along McDowell Road and as stipulated, 81st Avenue, to promote a 
safe pedestrian atmosphere. The Development Narrative requires that 
pedestrian pathways will be provided to allow safe and convenient ways to get to 
the open space amenity areas and the sidewalks within the right-of-way.  
 
 
22. Comprehensive Bicycle Master Plan  
The City of Phoenix adopted the Comprehensive Bicycle Master Plan in 2014 to 
guide the development of its bikeway system and supportive infrastructure. The 
Comprehensive Bicycle Master Plan supports options for both short- and long-
term bicycle parking as a means of promoting bicyclist traffic to a variety of 
destinations. The Development Narrative identifies bicycle storage and bicycle 
repair station as optional indoor amenities and will provide bicycle parking per 
the Walkable Urban Code standards. 
 
 
23.  Tree and Shade Master Plan 
The Tree and Shade Master Plan has a goal of treating the urban forest as 
infrastructure to ensure that trees are an integral part of the city’s planning and 
development process. In addition, a vision in the master plan is to raise 
awareness by leading by example. The Development Narrative requires a 
minimum of 75 percent shade on all adjacent public sidewalks, in addition to 
larger tree sizes. These standards are consistent with the Walkable Urban Code 
standards. 
 
 
24.  Zero Waste PHX 
The City of Phoenix is committed to its waste diversion efforts and has set a goal 
to become a zero-waste city, as part of the City’s overall 2050 Environmental 
Sustainability Goals. One of the ways Phoenix can achieve this is to improve and 
expand its recycling and other waste diversion programs. Section 716 of the 
Phoenix Zoning Ordinance establishes standards to encourage the provision of 
recycling containers for multifamily, commercial, and mixed-use developments 
meeting certain criteria. The PUD narrative promotes trash and recycling 
collection on site.

25. Transportation Electrification Action Plan 
In June 2022, the Phoenix City Council approved the Transportation 
Electrification Action Plan. The current market desire for the electrification of 
transportation is both a national and global phenomenon, fueled by a desire for 
better air quality, a reduction in carbon emissions, and a reduction in vehicle 
operating and maintenance costs. Businesses, governments and the public are 
signaling strong future demand for electric vehicles (EVs), and many automobile 
manufacturers have declared plans for a transition to fully electric offerings within 
the coming decade. This Plan contains policy initiatives to prepare the City for a 
future filled with more EVs, charging infrastructure and e-mobility equity, and 
outlines a roadmap for a five-step plan to prepare for the EV infrastructure needs 
of 280,000 EVs in Phoenix by 2030. One goal of the Plan to accelerate public 
adoption of electric vehicles through workplace, business, and multifamily 
charging infrastructure recommends a standard stipulation for rezoning cases to 
provide EV charging infrastructure. This is addressed in the PUD Narrative with 
garages for each residential unit having EV ready infrastructure. 
 
 
26. Conservation Measures for New Development  
In June 2023, the Phoenix City Council adopted the Conservation Measures for 
New Development policy as part of a resolution addressing the future water 
consumption of new development (Resolution 22129). This resolution addresses 
the future water consumption of new development to support one of the City’s 
Five Core Values in the General Plan which calls for Phoenix to “Build the 
Sustainable Desert City”. The Conservation Measures for New Development 
policy includes direction to develop standards for consideration as stipulations 
for all rezoning cases that will address best practices related to water usage in 
nine specific categories. This is addressed in the PUD Narrative under the city 
enforceable standards of the Sustainability Section. 
 
 
 
COMMUNITY INPUT SUMMARY  
27.  As of the writing of this report, staff has not received letters of support or 
opposition to this rezoning application.
