BUILD THE SUSTAINABLE DESERT CITY CORE VALUE; HEALTHY FOOD 
SYSTEM; LAND USE PRINCIPLE: Support the growth of land uses that 
contribute to a healthy and sustainable food system (i.e. grocery stores, 
community gardens, urban farms, and other urban agricultural elements).  
 
The proposal to allow the growth and harvest of field, tree or bush crops for retail sale 
provides access to healthy food options and supports a sustainable food system.  
 
CELEBRATE OUR DIVERSE COMMUNITIES & NEIGHBORHOODS CORE 
VALUE; CERTAINTY AND CHARACTER; LAND USE PRINCIPLE: New 
development and expansion or redevelopment of existing development in or 
near residential areas should be compatible with existing uses and consistent 
with adopted plans.  
 
The proposal to allow mobile vending supports the existing uses on the site as a 
community-oriented, multi-use arts center and gathering space. The proposal is also 
consistent with the economic development and community-based healthy food goals 
of the Eastlake-Garfield Transit Oriented Development Policy Plan.  
 
STRENGHTEN OUR LOCAL ECONOMY CORE VALUE; LOCAL AND SMALL 
BUSINESS; LAND USE PRINCIPLE: Facilitate adaptive reuse of older, 
underutilized properties to create mechanisms for new local and small 
businesses to operate, thrive and grow. 
 
The proposal to allow mobile vending creates an opportunity for small businesses to 
operate in conjunction with the existing adaptive reuse of the historic Sedler House 
on site.

Background/Issues/Analysis 
 
SUBJECT SITE 
1. This request is a major amendment to the Alwun House PUD (Z-27-11-8) to 
allow two new permitted uses: mobile vending and growing and harvesting of 
field, tree or bush crops for retail sale. The Alwun House PUD was approved in 
2012 with the goal to promote the production, installation, exhibition, sale, 
teaching, and study of art and to allow for public and private gatherings ranging 
from art exhibitions and performances to family weddings to other group 
meetings. This request is to add two new permitted uses and does not propose 
to modify any development standards as currently listed in the PUD narrative.  
 
The subject site is approximately 1.01 acres located at the northeast corner of 
12th Street and Roosevelt Street. Located on site is the Sedler House, 
constructed in 1912 and listed on the City of Phoenix Historic Property Register. 
The site is within the Eastlake-Garfield Transit Oriented Development Policy 
Plan area, the Arts Culture and Small Business Overlay District and the Garfield 
Redevelopment Plan area.

SURROUNDING LAND USES AND ZONING 
2. The site contains a historic home and 
vacant lot. To the north, across 
Diamond Street, are single-family 
residences zoned R-3 RI (Multifamily 
Residence District, Residential Infill 
District). To the north and west, 
adjacent to the subject site, is a 
single-family residence zoned R-3 RI. 
To the east are single-family 
residences zoned R-3 RI and R-5 RI 
ACOD (Multifamily Residence District, 
Residential Infill District, Arts, Culture 
and Small Business Overlay District).

 To the west across 12th Street are single and multifamily residences zoned R-3 
RI and R-5 RI ACOD. To the south across Roosevelt Street are single and 
multifamily residences zoned R-5 RI ACOD. 
  
GENERAL PLAN LAND USE MAP DESIGNATIONS 
3. The General Plan Land Use Map 
designation of the site is Residential 
3.5 to 5 dwelling units per acre, as are 
the surrounding properties. The 
request is not consistent with the 
General Plan Land Use Map 
designation; however, a General Plan 
amendment is not required because 
the site is less than 10 acres. The 
surrounding area is also designated 
as Residential 3.5 to 5 dwelling units 
per acre on the General Plan Land 
Use Map.

EXISTING STANDARDS AND PROPOSED USES 
4. The proposal was developed utilizing the PUD zoning designation. 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.

Staff Report: Z-27-A-11-8 
October 8, 2020 
Page 5 of 12 
 
 
  
 Below is a summary of the existing standards and proposed uses for the subject 
site as described in the attached PUD Development Narrative date stamped 
September 28, 2020. The development standards from the original PUD will 
remain, with the addition of two new uses. 
  
a. Land Use Standards 
The PUD includes a variety of uses that would typically be associated with an 
artistic venue. An example of existing allowable uses include antiques, craft and 
collectibles sales, book store, cultural events, parking, restaurants, and general 
retail.  
  
 The proposed PUD Amendment is to allow two new permitted uses: mobile 
vending and growing and harvesting of field, tree or bush crops for retail sale. 
The standards proposed for mobile vending include mitigating features such as 
different operating times for weekend versus weekday hours, and dustproofing 
and spacing requirements from public rights-of-way to be sensitive to the 
surrounding residential neighborhood.   
  
 The conceptual site plan shows the 
existing Alwun House south of the 
alley and north of the alley, the Green 
Art Park. The Green Art Park is 
proposed to be a multipurpose space 
that can be used as parking for 
gathering events at the Alwun House, 
as an outdoor gathering space, and as 
a space to display art.  
 
The Green Art Park is the proposed 
location of the mobile vending use. As 
proposed, mobile vending is permitted 
from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m. on 
Friday and Saturday, 10:00 a.m. to 
10:00 p.m. Sunday through Thursday, 
with extended hours, subject to 
obtaining a use permit. Further, as 
proposed, the mobile food vendors 
would: 
• Operate on dustproofed or 
paved surfaces 
• Not be located within fifteen 
feet of 12th Street or Diamond 
Street 
• Not reduce the amount of

Staff Report: Z-27-A-11-8 
October 8, 2020 
Page 6 of 12 
 
 
required parking per the PUD 
standards 
• Be subject to City Code 
requirements for mobile 
vending 
  
 The PUD currently allows for a community garden, which is a private or public 
facility for the cultivation of fruits, vegetables, flowers and ornamental plants by 
more than one person. This request is for the growth and harvest of field, tree or 
bush crops for retail sale which would allow one person to grow such crops and 
sell them on site. This proposed use is consistent with the uses already 
permitted on site such as farmers market, community garden, and indoor and 
outdoor retail food sales. 
  
b. Development Standards 
This request does not propose to modify the existing PUD development 
standards. The PUD development standards are consistent with the vision 
proposed for the development. A previously approved variance to reduce 
required parking for the site is codified through the PUD standards and a 
specific requirement for parking associated with any restaurant use on the site 
is provided.  
  
c. Landscape Standards  
Landscape setbacks are proposed to be measured from the back of curb. At 
least 75% of new trees are required to be at least 2-inch caliper. The average 
landscape setback of properties in Diamond Street will be utilized to establish 
the landscape setback for the portion of the PUD with Diamond Street frontage. 
  
d. Sustainability Standards  
The standards outlined in the PUD narrative note that the use of permeable 
pavement is encouraged to promote natural drainage and reduce run off.  
Pervious paving, combined with the required landscape for the surface 
parking/art park area, are intended to reduce the “heat island” effect of 
traditional surface parking areas. The re-use of the infill properties as a multi-
use space for supportive and independent uses also represents sustainability. 
  
e. Parking Standards  
A previously approved variance to lower the required parking on the site to six 
spaces is incorporated into the standards of the PUD. Further, if a restaurant 
use is established on the property, the restaurant shall provide an additional 
parking space for every 1,000 square feet of restaurant area.  
  
f. Signs  
Two signs exist on site. These signs were permitted through Zoning Adjustment 
Variance action and continue to be allowed as part of the PUD. In addition, the

Staff Report: Z-27-A-11-8 
October 8, 2020 
Page 7 of 12 
 
 
PUD incorporates the signage provisions of the R-5 section of Section 669, 
Arts, Culture and Small Business Overlay (ACOD) district. 
 
STUDIES AND POLICIES 
5. Arts, Culture and Small Business 
Overlay 
The Arts, Culture and Small Business 
Overlay is intended to allow greater 
flexibility in land uses and standards 
that will contribute to the vitality of the 
downtown area and will enhance 
community events. The proposal for 
mobile vending and agricultural uses 
will contribute to the vitality of the 
adaptive reuse of the Alwun House, 
enhance cultural events and support 
small businesses.

6. Eastlake-Garfield Transit Oriented Development Policy Plan 
The site is located within the Eastlake-Garfield TOD (Transit Oriented 
Development) District, the boundaries for which are Interstate 10 on the east 
and north, 7th Street on the west, and the Union Pacific Railroad on the south. 
The Policy Plan adopted for the Eastlake-Garfield TOD District provides a 
blueprint for fully achieving the transformative potential of light rail in a 
sustainable manner. Changes advocated in the plan can lower transportation 
costs for residents, create new business opportunities, encourage active, 
healthy lifestyles, ensure Phoenix increases its competitive advantage in the 
global marketplace, and improve prosperity by growing the economy in 
locations with existing infrastructure and public services.  
  
 The site is listed as an economic development opportunity site in the Eastlake-
Garfield TOD Plan. The plan lists several strategies to encourage economic 
development and community-based healthy food sources and such as: 
 
 
• Identify ways to reduce regulatory barriers and permitting fees for 
produce stands and healthy food trucks (pg. 170) 
• Identify and reduce zoning and licensing barriers for temporary and 
mobile retailers and restaurants (pg. 180)

Staff Report: Z-27-A-11-8 
October 8, 2020 
Page 8 of 12 
 
 
 The proposal to allow mobile vending 
on site would support small 
businesses and grow the local 
economy. Second, the proposal to 
add agricultural uses for retail sale 
provides for healthy food sources for 
residents and supports healthy 
lifestyles.

7. 2025 Food Action Plan  
The 2025 Food Action Plan was adopted by City Council on March 4, 2020, with 
a goal to promote the growth of a healthy, affordable, secure and sustainable 
food system that makes healthy food available to all Phoenix residents. The 
proposal to add the growth and harvest of bush and field crops as a permitted 
use supports the addition of land uses that contribute to a healthy and 
sustainable food system.  
  
8. Garfield Redevelopment Plan 
The Garfield Redevelopment Plan, adopted by City Council in 1999, identified 
long term development goals and devised mechanisms to reverse blighting 
influences and promote physical improvements in the area. The proposal for 
mobile vending and the growth and harvesting of crops is compatible with the 
land uses on site as an active gathering space and will enhance the sense of 
community in the area. 
  
9. Tree and Shade Master Plan 
The Tree and Shade Master Plan encourages treating the urban forest as 
infrastructure to ensure the trees are an integral part of the City’s planning and 
development process. The existing development standards in the PUD, not 
modified by this request, require ample landscaped setbacks and parking lot 
landscaping.

Staff Report: Z-27-A-11-8 
October 8, 2020 
Page 9 of 12 
 
 
 10. Complete Streets Guidelines 
In 2014, the City of Phoenix City Council adopted the Complete Streets Guiding 
Principles. The principles are intended to promote improvements that provide 
an accessible, safe, connected transportation system to include all modes, such 
as bicycles, pedestrians, transit, and vehicles. The existing development 
standards in the PUD, not modified by this request, require shaded sidewalks 
and a minimum of 20 bicycle parking spaces.   
  
11. 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 existing development standards in the PUD, not modified by 
this request, require a minimum of 10 bicycle parking spaces.   
  
12. 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 a vision of creating a stronger and more vibrant Phoenix through 
increased housing options for residents at all income levels and family sizes.  
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 
existing development standards in the PUD, not modified by this request, allows 
residential uses.   
  
13. Reimagine Phoenix 
As part of the Reimagine Phoenix initiative, the City of Phoenix is committed to 
increasing the waste diversion rate to 40 percent by 2020 and to better manage 
its solid waste resources. 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.  
As stated by applicant, there is recycling on site and the applicant will continue 
to make efforts to incorporate recycling as part of the operation of future uses 
on the site. 
  
COMMUNITY INPUT SUMMARY 
14. The applicant has completed the Citizen Participation requirements as outlined 
in the Rezoning Process Packet. The required mailings and site posting 
generated attendance at the virtual neighborhood meetings. At the time this 
staff report was written, staff has received 11 letters of in support for this 
request.

15. The Floodplain Division of the Public Works Department determined the site is 
not in a Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA), but located in a Shaded Zone X, on 
panel 2210 L of the Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRM) dated October 16, 2013. 
  
16. The City of Phoenix Water Services Department has noted the property has 
existing water and sewer mains that can potentially serve the site; however 
water capacity is a dynamic condition that can change over time due to a variety 
of factors.  
 
 
17. The Street Transportation Department requested that all street improvements be 
constructed to City of Phoenix and ADA accessibility standards. That is 
addressed in Stipulation No. 5.

19. The Public Transit Department requested clearly defined, accessible pathways 
that visually contrast with the adjacent parking and drive aisles surfaces, that 
building entrances and exits, and all public sidewalks be connected utilizing the 
minimum possible distance, all cross access agreements shall incorporate a 
pedestrian pathway, and seventy five percent shade coverage on all pedestrian 
paths and sidewalks. The existing PUD standards and site plan address these 
comments with standards for sidewalk shade and pedestrian paths.   
  
20. The Fire Department indicated there are no problems anticipated with the case 
and that the site and/or buildings shall comply with the 2018 IFC with Phoenix 
Amendments and Appendix B – Fire Flow should be addressed. Further, the 
Department commented that they do not know the water supply at this site and 
noted that additional water supply may be required to meet the required fire flow 
per the Phoenix Fire Code. 
  
21. The Aviation Department The Aviation Department requires that the property 
owner record a Notice to Prospective Purchasers of Proximity to Airport in order 
to disclose the existence, and operational characteristics of City of Phoenix Sky 
Harbor International Airport (PHX) to future owners or tenants of the property. 
The Aviation Department also requires that the project receive a No Hazard 
Determination from the FAA and that the property owner grant and record an 
avigation easement. These are addressed in Stipulation Nos. 2 through 4.

immediately and allowed time to properly assess the materials. This is 
addressed in Stipulation No. 6. 
  
23. Development and use of the site is subject to all applicable codes and 
ordinances. Zoning approval does not negate other ordinance requirements. 
Other formal actions such as, but not limited to, zoning adjustments and 
abandonments, may be required.

Ms Stokham,
   I received a notification from the Alwun House noting that they are requesting an
amendment to their PUD (Case No. Z-27-A-11) to add some additional permitted uses.  As a
neighbor in the Garfield Neighborhood who is very excited about their plans for a Green Art
Park, I strongly approve and SUPPORT this change.
   The Green Art Park has tremendous potential to positively impact our neighborhood. 
Allowing them to host food trucks and growing/harvesting plants for sale are logical and good
ideas.
Thank you for your consideration,

To whom it may concern;
My husband and I are residents of the Garfield neighborhood and neighbors to Alwun House.
We support this amendment and think it will help bring our community together. Whenever
there is a food truck in the neighborhood the whole community gets excited and patronizes it.
Allowing food trucks at the Alwun House's Green Art Park will allow for a safer space for
food trucks to park and do business with our neighbors. 
We live 2 blocks away from the Alwun House and are frequent visitors. Having a space for
food trucks would be a welcome addition to the neighborhood. We look forward to the many
events proposed at this new expanded Alwun House facility. 
Thank you,
Gabriella Saavedra and Andrew Raub

Re:  Alwun House 
       PUD Amendment (Z-27-A-11)
Dear Ms. Stockham:
I, with this letter, want to express my support on Alwun House PUD Amendment (Z-27-A-11). My 
family and I are long-time residents of the Garfield Neighborhood and neighbors to Alwun House. 
Living just a few blocks from Alwun House, it would be great to having an occasional food truck 
within walking distance from our home. 
Personally, I look forward to enjoying the many events Alwun House could host at its new proposed 
expanded facilities, and to bringing my entire family. I believe that giving Alwun House the ability to 
bring food trucks to its facilities will not only be a great amenity to the neighborhood, but it will also 
allow to create new connections, positive community, and maintain comradely at a safe space within 
Garfield, my neighborhood.
Please contact me if you have questions or if there is anything else I could do to further support Alwun 
House PUD Amendment (Z-27-A-11). 
Sincerely, 
Carolina Coronel, MPA, SHRM-SCP

As a long time volunteer at Alwun House events I have been aware of this project since the very
beginning almost a decade ago. That being said, I see the ability to "feed the masses" so to speak as a
vital component to making this long awaited project a success!

RE: Subject line: Alwun House PUD Amendment (Z-20-60-8) 
 
 
To whom it may concern: 
 
My Wife, Daughters and I are residents of Garfield Neighborhood and neighbors to the Alwun House, and live adjacent to 
the new Garfield Green Art Park.  I am writing to voice my support for the Alwin House PUD Amendment. Our family 
lives close to the Awin House and already makes use of the Green Art Park in the evenings, and think it would be a great 
benefit for ourselves and the neighborhood to have occasional events including food trucks at this location.  
 
On behalf of my family, I appreciate you reading this letter of support and taking into consideration the benefits I think 
this PUD amendment will have in the neighborhood.  
 
 
 
Kind Regards,

Alwun House PUD Amendment 
 
 
 
To whom it may concern: 
 
 
On behalf of Garfield Organization, I would like to request that you approve this 
amendment. 
 
Garfield Organization supported the original PUD request as Alwun House had met 
with the neighborhood to educate us on the PUD and now the amendment. It was our 
understanding that this amendment was to have been included in the original PUD. 
Alwun House has always been a point of pride on our Garfield neighborhood with it’s 
forward thinking and community leadership. We were in support of it then and we are 
in support of it now. We believe their ability to have food trucks (legally parked) in the 
Alwun House Art Park will not only be an amenity for our residents, but a much 
needed opportunity for safe resident connection long after this pandemic is over.  
 
Alwun House has worked with Garfield Organization for decades to help improve the 
Garfield neighborhood and this new expansion will improve Alwun House’s ability to 
serve our neighborhood and it’s residents.  
 
 
 
Thank you,

the Alwun House; a food truck would be absolutely wonderfu.

Ms. Stockhqm,
I am a long-term (20 years) resident of Garfield neighborhood and live 3 short blocks from the Alwun House.  I was
informed of the PUD amendment, and its proposed expansion of Alwun House events and facilities. The addition of
“food trucks” and related amendments are consistent with the intent of the City’s Arts, Culture and Small Business
Overlay District (ACOD). Increasing development along Roosevelt Row west of 7th Street has diminished the effect
of the ACOD in that area. In a post-COVID  environment, this amendment would help to restore some of the
vibrancy and creativity, east of 7th Street, envisioned for the original ACOD, and I recommend approval of the PUD
amendment.
Thank you for your consideration.

 To whom it may concern;
I am an artist and a resident of Garfield neighborhood and currently exhibiting art in Alwun House’s art
gallery. I support this Amendment because I live just 5 blocks from Alwun House and I look forward to
having  occasional food trucks within walking distance.
I look forward to the many events proposed at this new expanded Alwun House facility, and to bringing
my entire family, we believe the ability for us to have food trucks will be an amenity to the neighborhood.  
 
Alwun house is a core part of the Garfield Neighborhood and supporting food trucks and vendors in their
green art park will help the neighborhood grow in its diversity and inclusion benefiting all of the Phoenix
downtown area especially Roosevelt row and its expansion into the Garfield neighborhood .
