Good morning Mr. Elder,
How are you? My name is Enrique Bojorquez and I am the South Mountain Village Planner,
reaching out with regards to case Z-SP-2-20-8 (a proposed mortuary, near 25th Street and
Broadway Road). I wanted to inquire whether you have any comments on this proposal, on
behalf of the Target Area B organization? The meeting minutes submitted by the applicant
indicate that you expressed support for their case.
This case was submitted in 2019 under case Z-SP-5-19-8, and I saw that you had submitted
a letter in support to this proposal in 2019. I was wondering whether you continue to support
this case and if you would like for staff to use the previous letter of support in this new case
file? (Or if you would like to submit an updated letter)
Thank you very much,

Good morning John,
 
How are you? Thanks for sharing with me this information regarding this part of the city. In addition,
would you like for me to include your email and pictures as part of the case for a rezoning case (Z-
SP-2-20-8) at the corner of 25th Street and Broadway Road? Not sure if you wanted to include this as
part of this active rezoning case within that Overlay District.
 
At the time, the Four Corners Overlay District (per Chapter 6 of the Phoenix Zoning Ordinance) is
presently in place and not proposed to be changed.
 
Please contact me with any questions!

Subject: 4 corners overlay

Enrique,  This is former Councilman,  Mike Johnson.  I'm strongly in support of the
community and the overlay that is currently in place.  The City has invested well over 50
million dollars in the revitalization of this community.  Former councilman Calvin
Goode, Cody Williams and myself have actively been involved in this revitalization.  Starting from
neighborhood clean-ups to providing quality affordable housing. We've witnessed this area go from
a crime infested  drug  area and "hot spot" crime area  to a thriving community. The residents in this
community are dedicated  concerned citizens and their hard work shouldn't be ignored by any
dismantling of the overlay  protecting their community.  Former Councilwoman now Mayor kate
Gallegos has also been involved in this revitalization.  Teaming up with the nonprofit FSL
continuing to provide affordable housing and future plans on revitalization.  
Attached are some photos of the ground breaking of the affordable housing project by FSL. 
Pictured are Former Councilwoman. Mayor Kate Gallegos. Former Councilman Calvin
Goode. Former Councilman Mike Johnson,  Gail Knight, Chairman Community Excellence,
Betty Ware, community activist, and members of the development team.

I disagree with putting a mortuary, in sourh Phoenix community, the fact that their has to be
rezoning to approve it, the fact that its depressing and not bringing life to the community. 
Their so many other beneficial businesses to help South Phoenix, community center for one,
please do not put a mortuary in our community.

South Mountain Village Planning              Committee Minutes - 10-15-19.pdf
Dear Ms. Keating and Mr. Bojorquez-Gaxiola: 
 
I am resubmitting this communication to you due to the return of Mr. Bojorquez-Gaxiola's copy to me. 
The Community Excellence Project does not support Ms. Kenia Connor's Application No. Z-SP-2-20 
and Z-SP2-20-8 to amend zoning ordinance for the northwest corner of 25th street and Broadway 
(Note: Address in current application is 45th & Broadway - which is a wrong address).  
  
Mr. Stephens also distributed a public notice for a virtual meeting via phone for May 1, 9 am at 602-
277-1187. I called the number numerous times and was required to leave a message. During my 
attempts to connect, I received a message from Ms. Brunson stating the communication system could 
only accommodate 6-8 calls. Thus, I along with others that contacted me (Ms. Betty Ware, Pastor 
Trotter) were not able to connect for a discussion with Mr. Stephens or Ms. Connor.  
  
When the initial request was submitted in 2019, residents in the South Phoenix Village community 
along with Community Excellence Project submitted a written notice of disapproval of the rezoning 
request to the South Mountain Village Planning (SMVP) Committee that was conveyed by staff of the 
City of Phoenix Planning and Development Department to SMVP Committee (see attached minutes 
of SMVP Committee) in October and the Planning Commission in November 2019. Ms. Brunson 
provided a presentation at the SMVP Committee and provided petitions signed by residents located in 
the South Phoenix Village and Target Area B community. The SMVP did not approve the request, 
however the Planning Commission approved the request.  This request was forwarded to the City 
Council. 
 
Prior to the scheduled City Council meeting representatives of South Phoenix Village, Target Area B 
and Community Excellence Project met with the Council District 8 office to discuss this request. 
Councilman Garcia heard their concerns and a decision was made to not support the request for 
rezoning. Once Mr. Stephens and Ms. Connor were informed, the request was pulled from the 
Council agenda. However, the residents were informed that the owner can resubmit the 
request.  Thus, the reason for a second submittal of the request for rezoning of the Overlay District 
zoning. 
 
According to City of Phoenix Zoning Ordinance - Section 660. Four Corners Overlay District, 
the following information is provided:  [ ] 
A. Purpose and Intent. The purpose for the overlay is to formalize and define development 
standards to aid in the development and planning of projects within the historic section of the City 
known as the Four Corners. The goal is to create a pedestrian friendly environment and tie the Four 
Corners at the intersection of 24th Street and Broadway Road together through unique design 
elements. It is intended to provide the Four Corners with new and distinct neighborhood

2
[phoenix.municipal.codes] commercial developments that will define and unify the community and 
enhance the gateway to the South Mountain Village and the redevelopment areas of Target Area 
B and South Phoenix Village. 
B. Applicability. This overlay applies to lands off each of the Four Corners of 24th Street and 
Broadway Road described as south of Pueblo Avenue between 23rd and 25 Streets, south to

Streets and including an irregular shaped parcel [phoenix.municipal.codes] extending approximately 
1,170 feet south and 1,040 feet west of the southwest corner of 24th Street and Broadway Road. The 
district also includes those additional lots [phoenix.municipal.codes] fronting onto Broadway Road to 
28th Street on the south side and 350 feet east of 28th Street on the north side. 
C. Special Permit Uses. The Four Corners Overlay District is established to encourage the 
development of neighborhood [phoenix.municipal.codes] serving retail uses and 
limited community serving uses. Uses listed in the underlying commercial district are permitted except 
that certain uses and the sale of certain products will be permitted only subject to a special permit 
approval in accordance with Section 504.1 [phoenix.municipal.codes]. These include: Mortuary and

establishments; Automobiles, trucks, motorcycles and tractors; Blood banks and plasma centers;

Section 550 further states procedure to apply for a special permit is as follows: 
Procedure: Special permit—An application for a special permit shall be forwarded to the Target Area 
B Advisory Committee and the Community Excellence Project Board for their review and 
recommendation prior to review by the South Mountain Village Planning Committee. 
 
The support from the City of Phoenix has contributed to the revitalization of South Phoenix Village. 
Over $50 million dollars has been invested in major neighborhood infrastructure for this community. It 
is imperative that decisions made continue to enhance this area and attract the appropriate 
businesses and services to support the redevelopment and conceptual plans approved by the City of 
Phoenix. It is for this reason, we are respectfully requesting you to inform the South Mountain Village 
Planning Committee, City of Phoenix Planning Commission, Mayor and City Council of our opposition 
to approval of  Ms. Kenia Connor's Application No. Z-SP-2-20 and Z-SP-2-20-8 at their upcoming 
meetings that will include this issue on their Agenda.  Please provide me the date, time and contact 
information for each meeting once they are scheduled.  Thank you. I look forward to your response.  
 
Sincerely,

To whom it may concern, 
 
I oppose this permit request.  If granted, the owner of that property plans to open a funeral home. 
There is no need for another funeral home in this area as there are several within a 10 mile radius.  I
also worry about the chemicals used in embalming and bodily fluid wastes that would enter the
existing sewer system. 
 
I humbly urge you to deny this permit.  South Phoenix does not need another funeral home!

        I'm requesting to speak by conference call concerning the permit request for #Z-SP-2-20-8, As the
Pastor of Prayer House Sanctuary on 2401 E Pueblo, Phx, Az 85040, I'm opposing the permit request for

community, will be a business that are community support, and wants as a business. I spoke with the
majority of the members that attend my church, and  they don't support the business of a mortuary one
block away of their place of worship, they would rather see a business that is uplifting to our community,
such as a recreation center for our youth, multicultural center, or educational center, I hope to speak with

location as it ‘s very congested .  Adding a Mortuary  and shutting down traffic  in a more continuous
basis would not benefit the community.

Broadway Heritage Community. I am highly disappointed in this
news. For years, we were promised retail and other businesses that
would bring life to the community. A funeral home was NOT
included in the original plans. Its construction would be a dark
reminder of the bleak past that many residents experienced in the area
many years ago. Please do not allow this plan to go forward. Please
continue to push for other businesses and services that were included
in the original plan. I can be reached at wpier7@cox.net or 602-451-
9311. Thank you.

Hello,
As a local resident. I would much rather prefer something like a Youth Hope Development
Center that I am more than willing to help spearhead. 
Thank you!
