Background/Issues/Analysis

SUBJECT SITE
1. This is a request to rezone a 3.19-
acre property located approximately
400 feet west of the northwest corner
of 54th Street and Shea Boulevard.
The request is to rezone from C-O
(Approved PAD SP) (Commercial
Office, Approved Planned Area
Development-2 Special Permit) (0.12
acres) and PAD (Approved PAD SP)
(Planned Area Development,
Approved Planned Area Development
Special Permit) (3.07 acres) to PUD
(Planned Unit Development) to allow
a hospital and commercial uses.

Development Department
2. The subject site consists of one parcel that is under the ownerships of 5316 E Shea
Boulevard, LLC. The site is currently vacant. The subject site was annexed into the
area vastly consisted of vacant land. This area was rezoned in 1974 as a Planned
Area Development (PAD) comprised of 80 acres through Rezoning Case No. Z-64-74
and a concurrent special permit case, Z-SP-5-74, for a tennis club along the Shea
Boulevard frontage and a golf course. The golf course was not built within this Special
Permit area. In 1985 a portion of the site was rezoned to C-O through Rezoning Case
No. Z-133-85 to allow administrative office uses for the tennis club along the Indian
Bend Wash and Shea Boulevard. In 1986 an expansion of the tennis club and parking
area was
requested
through
Rezoning
Case No. Z-
SP-15-86.

3. The General Plan Land Use
Map designation for the
subject site is Residential 3.5
to 5 dwelling units per acre.
The proposal is not consistent
with the General Plan Land
Use Map designation but is
consistent with current land
uses in the area. A General
Plan Amendment is not
required because the site is
less than 10 acres in size.

The General Plan Land Use
Map designation on all sides
of the subject parcel are also
Residential 3.5 to 5 dwelling
units per acre, with some
Residential 10 to 15 dwelling
units per acre south of the site
and Parks/Open Space –
Publicly Owned west of the
site.

SURROUNDING ZONING AND USES
4. North
The area to the north of the subject site is a single-family subdivision by the name of
La Camarilla zoned PAD SP (Planned Area Development - 2, Special Permit). The
subdivision was platted in 1982.

South
Directly south of the subject site, across Shea Boulevard, are two two-story
multifamily developments named La Camarilla Villas Condominiums and Bella Terra
Condominiums. La Camarilla Villas Condominiums, located south and southwest of
the site, is zoned R-3A (Multifamily Residential District) through Rezoning Case No.
Z-180-87. Bella Terra Condominiums, located south of the site zoned R-2 (Multifamily

East
Directly to the east of the
subject site is a fitness center
zoned PAD SP (Planned
Area Development, Special
Permit) approved through
PHO-2-18--Z-SP-15-86,
which modified stipulations in
the original special permit
rezoning case, allowing a
fitness center.

West
West of the subject site, are
two commercial office
buildings with one and two
story buildings zoned
C-O (Approved PAD SP)
(Commercial Office,
approved Planned Area Context Land Use Map, Source: City of Phoenix Planning
and Development Services Department
Development, Special Permit)
and PAD SP (Planned Area
Development Special Permit) and P-1 (Approved C-O) (Passenger Automobile
Parking, Limited, approved Commercial Office).

PROPOSAL
5. The proposal was developed utilizing the PUD zoning designation. The 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 writes a document proposing standards and
guidelines that are tailored to the context of a site on a case by case basis.

Where the HonorHealth Outpatient Medical Center - Shea PUD Development
Narrative is silent on a requirement, the applicable Zoning Ordinance provisions shall
be applied.

6. Below is a summary of the proposed standards for the subject site as described in the
attached PUD Development Narrative date stamped January 6, 2021. The proposed
standards were designed to allow for a commercial development that continues
enhancement along the Shea Boulevard corridor for a more pedestrian-friendly
environment and provides a thoughtful or appropriate transition from the adjacent
residential uses to the north of the subject site.

Page 251
Staff Report: Z-41-20-3
January 26, 2021

List of Uses
The Development Narrative proposes a hospital and land uses in C-O/M-O
(Commercial Office, Major Office option).

Prohibited Uses
The Development Narrative proposes restricting RV Parking and a helistop.
Prohibiting these uses helps to make this proposal more consistent with adjacent
commercial office and residential uses.

Conceptual Site Plan
The development’s main access points are along Shea Boulevard. The project
proposes a one-story, 18-foot tall commercial building with approximately 13,500
square feet of the building being utilized for urgent/emergency care and 11,500
square feet being utilized for physical therapy and primary care. The subject site
proposes 50 percent open space, which includes shaded pedestrian pathways and
enhanced landscaping. Shea Boulevard will contain an enhanced streetscape with a
detached sidewalk framed by landscape areas that will include trees, shrubs and live
ground cover. The
development narrative
does not call out the
dimension of the
detached sidewalk.
Staff is recommending
in Stipulation No. 1.a.
which requires a
minimum 6-foot-wide
detached sidewalk
along Shea
Boulevard. This is
consistent with the
approved Street

approved cross
section. The northern
property boundary
proposes a 100-foot
building setback, 30
foot landscape
setback and a double
row of multitrunked trees abutting Illustrative Landscape Plan, Source: Devenney Group
the northern property boundary,
which provides an enhanced
buffer between the proposed
use and existing single-family residential uses to the north.

Page 252
Staff Report: Z-41-20-3
January 26, 2021

Development Standards
The PUD development narrative proposes development standards based on the C-1
Zoning District. Several of the enhanced standards from the C-1 standards are in
relation to height, lot coverage, open space and building setbacks. All other
development standards are comparable.
The proposed maximum height of the project is 18 feet. The C-1 standards allow a
maximum height of 30 feet. Staff is supportive of the reduction in height due to the
close proximity of residential uses to the north.

The lot coverage proposed for the project is a maximum of 20 percent. The C-1
standards allow a maximum lot coverage of 50 percent. The reduction in lot coverage
allows more landscape areas to be incorporated on the site to serve as buffer areas
to the north and open space areas for employees and people visiting the site.

The proposed building setbacks
are 100 feet on the northern
boundary, 15 feet on the eastern
boundary, 40 feet on the
southern boundary and 50 feet
on the western boundary. The
PUD development narrative
proposes enhanced setbacks on
all sides of the property
compared to the C-1 zoning
standards.

Setback Exhibit, Source: Devenney Group

Landscape Standards
The Development Narrative includes increased landscape setbacks adjacent to the

Page 253
Staff Report: Z-41-20-3
January 26, 2021

existing residential uses to the north. Minimum landscape setbacks of 30 feet will be
provided along the northern property boundary whereas a 25-foot setback will be
provided along the Shea Boulevard property line on the south of the site. The Shea
Boulevard frontage will utilize existing trees in addition to replacement of three-inch
caliper trees along all the public right-of-way and new two and three-inch caliper trees
in all landscape areas. The developer shall install shrubbery and groundcover plants
in all landscape areas.
The streetscape along Shea Boulevard will include a detached sidewalk and minimum
three and four-inch caliper trees along the public right-of-way. This exceeds minimum
tree size requirements in the C-1 district. The landscaping will provide for a
pedestrian-friendly environment with 75 percent shade at maturity along the detached
sidewalk and 25 percent shade in the parking lot area.

Design Guidelines and Standards
The Development Narrative includes design standards that promotes four sided
architecture in an effort to create visual interest on all four sides of the building.
Design standards ensure that the building facade will blend with the natural desert
environment and contain a minimum of 33 percent of each building elevation include
integral color dimensional concrete masonry block with honed finish, stone tile, metal
paneling, glazing, exterior insulated finish system with reveal pattern or integral color
dimension concrete masonry block with smooth finish. The graphic below depicts the
quality architecture proposed in the PUD narrative.

Conceptual Elevation, Source: Devenney Group

The final elevations and building plans submitted to the City will incorporate the
provisions outlined in the development narrative and shall follow the Design
Guidelines of Section 507.Tab A of the Phoenix Zoning Ordinance.

Parking Standards
The proposed parking is less than what is required by Section 702 of the Zoning
Ordinance. Staff is supportive of the reduction in parking as the developer has opted
to eliminate a row of spaces on the northern most boundary of the site due to the
close proximity of residential uses. Staff is recommending the development narrative
address specific standards, which is reflected in Stipulation No. 1.b. A double row of

Page 254
Staff Report: Z-41-20-3
January 26, 2021

trees will be planted between the parking lot and residential subdivision to the north in
an effort to create a greater buffer between the two uses. The PUD proposes a
minimum of one bicycle space per 25 parking stalls with a maximum of 50 spaces and
shall comply with Section 1307.H. of the City of Phoenix Zoning Ordinance.

Fences/Walls
All site fences and walls will be consistent with Section 703.A of the Phoenix Zoning
Ordinance. In addition, the emergency generator, depicted on the Site Plan adjacent
to the proposed building, depicted on the Site Plan adjacent to the proposed building,
shall be screened by a minimum 11-foot wall.

Shade
The proposed shade standards require that a minimum of 75 percent of shade cover
be provided at maturity over the Shea Boulevard sidewalk. Further, 25 percent of the
parking lot shall be shaded, and 50 percent of all accessible public and private open
space areas shall be shaded.

Lighting Plan
All lighting will be consistent with the standards of Section 507 Tab A (Guidelines for
Design Review) and 704 (Environmental Performance Standards) of the Phoenix
Zoning Ordinance and Section 23-100 of the City Code. In addition, other restrictions
have been incorporated.

Emergency Vehicles
Emergency vehicles are not regulated by the City of Phoenix. However, the PUD
development narrative states that non-emergency patients may be transported to the
facility by ambulance without the use of lights and sirens. Emergency vehicles may
use lights and sirens for patients that require immediate transport, on occasion.

Signage
The proposed sign standards will comply with the Zoning Ordinance standards for
commercial development. In addition, the signage will be compatible with the project
design and signs shall not be located on the north side of the building.

Sustainability
The Development Narrative proposes several options to incorporate sustainability
principals including drought tolerant landscaping, vegetated parking lot and other
open space areas, which will reduce the heat island effect. The project also proposes
the utilization of low flow water fixtures among other features.

PUD Compatibility to Zoning Ordinance
The PUD proposes building setbacks that are comparable or greater than what is
required by the Phoenix Zoning Ordinance in the C-1 zoning district. Most notably, the
enhanced building and landscape setbacks, shade at 75 percent coverage at maturity

Page 255
Staff Report: Z-41-20-3
January 26, 2021

to increase pedestrian comfort and activity. Additionally, the building height is
restricted to 18 feet (28 feet at the top of the parapet). Enhanced protections for
abutting residential to the north include setbacks, enhanced landscaping buffers, and
a signage restriction on the site.

Phasing
The project will be constructed in one phase.

AREA PLANS, OVERLAY DISTRICTS, AND INITIATIVES
7. 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 proposal includes a robust landscaped pedestrian walking
path along Shea Boulevard, open space areas and greater planting standards than
otherwise required by the City of Phoenix Zoning Ordinance.

8. 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. There is a proposed detached sidewalk adjacent to
the public street which provides a safer and more comfortable pedestrian experience.

9. Comprehensive Bicycle Master Plan
The Comprehensive Bicycle Master
Plan also supports options for both
short-and long-term bicycle parking
as a means of promoting bicyclist
traffic to a variety of destinations.
The proposal requires bicycle
parking spaces be provided on the
site. Bicycle racks shall be a
decorative design and installed per
the requirements of Section 1307. H.
of the Zoning Ordinance.

Source: Dero

10. 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

Page 256
Staff Report: Z-41-20-3
January 26, 2021

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 provision of recycling containers was not
addressed in the applicant’s submittals.

COMMUNITY INPUT SUMMARY
11. At the time the staff report was written, staff has received 42 letters of opposition with
concerns related to the proposed use, line of site to existing residential, buffering,
proximity to residential uses, traffic, signage, lighting and noise generated from
emergency vehicles entering and exiting the site. The applicant has been working
with concerned neighbors to mitigate these concerns.

INTERDEPARTMENTAL COMMENTS
12. The Street Transportation Department has proposed stipulations requiring that all
streets within and adjacent to the development, shall be constructed with all
mandatory elements. In addition, no preliminary approval of plans shall be granted
until a Traffic Impact Study/Statement is reviewed and approved by the City. These
are addressed in Stipulation Nos. 2 and 3.

13. The Public Transit Department has proposed decorative pavers, stamped or colored
concrete, or other pavement treatments that visually contrast with the adjacent
parking and drive aisles surfaces be implemented. Additionally, it is recommended
that all building entrances and exits, and all public sidewalks be connected utilizing
the minimum possible distance and providing the most direct route. All cross-access
agreements shall incorporate a pedestrian pathway. Further, trees shall be placed to
provide 75 percent shade coverage on all pedestrian paths and sidewalks at full
maturity. Development standards within the Development Narrative prescribe
standards for pedestrian connectivity and shade. These are addressed within the
PUD narrative.

14. The Phoenix Fire Department has noted that they do not anticipate any problems with
this case and that the site and/or buildings shall comply with the Phoenix Fire Code.

15. The City of Phoenix Floodplain Management division of the Public Works Department
has determined that this parcel is not in a Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA), but is
located in a Shaded Zone X, on panel 1755 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 proposed development.
However, there is potential need to up size existing water and sewer infrastructure

Page 257
Staff Report: Z-41-20-3
January 26, 2021

mains so that any remodels or new buildings will be able to meet domestic and fire
code requirements.

OTHER
17. The site has not been identified as being archaeologically sensitive. However, in the
event archaeological materials are encountered during construction, all ground
disturbing activities must cease within 33-feet of the discovery and the City of Phoenix
Archaeology Office must be notified immediately and allowed time to properly assess
the materials. This is addressed in Stipulation No. 4.

18. 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.

Findings

1. The proposed development provides additional protections for nearby residential uses
through site design and enhanced development standards.

2. The proposed development will provide a needed service in the area.

3. The proposed development contains enhanced standards that will result is a more
walkable, shaded and pedestrian-friendly environment that will help to reduce the
urban heat island effect.

Subject: Proposed HonorHealth on Shea

Good afternoon,

I'm not sure if I will be able to attend the Zoom meeting so I am sending in my concerns ahead of time.

I've been a resident on Shea for the past 15 years, directly across from the proposed location of HonorHealth. Like many
parts of Shea Blvd, this is a very busy street. This particular section has notably bad traffic for several reasons:

1) The narrowing of westbound Shea at 56th St, forcing three lanes of rush hour traffic into two lanes.

This narrowing leads to many aggravated drivers and aggressive driving due to individuals not wanting to lose a single
spot in line, especially at the afternoon rush hour. It has forced inattentive drivers to cut over left a lane, oblivious to the
existing occupant of that lane, causing near crashes. At rush hour (during non‐COVID times), the traffic is solid
bumper to bumper from Tatum back to 56th Street, and further on some days.

2) Several driveways and intersections, including side streets, condominium developments and Mountainside Fitness

There is a lot to pay attention to here with locals trying to drive home, or turn out of their respective driveways onto
Shea. This will be more difficult with the increased emergency traffic of the proposed HonorHealth. Many of those
coming to HonorHealth may not be familiar with the driveways or the area and may not be able to focus on the traffic
coming from multiple directions as they try to find HonorHealth, especially as they are personally stressed with their
own emergency situations.

3) A bi‐directional center turn lane.

This in particular is a major concern. Many drivers treat this as a long merge lane, driving 200‐300 yards up the center
lane to merge into traffic. I've watched drivers get into this lane from in front of Mountainside Fitness to turn left onto
52nd St, which is about 300 yards. Other drivers come out of Bella Terra condominiums and make it all the way to the
light at 51st Place before merging. Drivers coming to Mountainside from the west will get into the merge lane as soon as
52nd Street so they can pass slower traffic in the left lane. This turns this center turn lane into a suicide lane with many,
many near accidents. There probably are logged accidents but I don't have access to those records.

I believe there is a major safety issue in bringing 24 hour emergency traffic to this section of Shea Blvd that is not
capable as currently engineered to safely handle that traffic. There are too many distractions, too many people coming
from different directions, and too many drivers sharing that turn lane as head on traffic.

Secondarily, the presence of Mountainside Fitness is more omnipresent than the prior occupant, La Camarilla
Tennis/Fitness. While we were made promises of how it would coexist, those promises do not appear to be kept. The
lights are brighter than before and they even have music playing outside 24 hours a day (in non‐COVID times). I cannot
sleep with a window open and not hear their music. This is not acceptable.

This location would be better served as professional or non‐emergency medical offices. If a 24 hour emergency location
is to be considered then major improvements must be provided on Shea Blvd, and the business must better conform to
the neighborhood environment with sound, light, etc. than has Mountainside Fitness.

Subject: Honor Health Medical Center Zoning Chg Request Z-41-20

Hi David,

I missed your call yesterday. I’m the HOA President of North Phoenix Promontory, just to the southeast of this proposed
development. We have a lot of concerns about this project and I need some clarification on the upcoming Village
Planning Informational Meeting.

I went thru this process a couple years ago when Cachet Homes wanted a zoning chg for their Astoria residential
development. Thru the Village Planning Comm Hearing we were able to come up with a satisfactory compromise and it
was approved up the chain to the City Council. However, I never heard of this Informational Hearing before.

Some questions:

1- It is my understanding the Village Committee members listen and use this to help make their decision for when they
have their actual Committee hearing?
2- With #1 above in mind, are the opinions given here more important for one’s case than at the actual Village Planning
Comm Hearing?
3- If one wants to give their speaking time on 11/2 to someone else, how is that done in this virtual set-up?
4- Best guess as to when the Village Plan Comm Hearing will be? Before end of year? And will it be held virtually as well?
5- Last time I brought our Community signed petition to the Village Hearing. I take it now I will need to mail or email it
in?
6- When I research PUD zoning, under “Uses”, it says “ Appropriate limitations will be placed on the character and
intensity of permitted uses to promote neighborhood compatibility.” I would just like to confirm this is still the current
wording.

Finally, how do I get my email address added to the notification list? Right now it goes to our Block Watch person who
ends up forwarding to me.

Thanks for your help, David!

Subject: Honor Health rezoning Shea/54th st.

David,

I am a homeowner in La Camarilla Estates off of 54th St. I have followed the city’s handling of the Mountainside Fitness
project from start to finish. I have also followed the Honor Health proposal to construct adjacent to Mountainside.

I usually can go along with progress if dealt with in a fair and equitable manner. However, neither one of these projects
have done so. I am personally disappointed in how the city handled the Mountainside project and the project’s blatant
disregard to zoning requirements and laws. It almost seems to me as though the city turned a blind eye to what was
expected and what was not even disclosed in the planning to the city. I might also add that the developer continues to
ignore city guidelines. The individual is a bully and continues to act as such and in no way is concerned about this
neighborhood. I am also disappointed that the Honor Health development is taking on the same posture with the
Mountainside group involved from the start.

I implore you to do your civic duty and first of all require that Mountainside comply with signage lighting and do not
ignore the plea of this neighborhood in regards to the zoning of the Honor Health project. There are numerous locations
that this group could have considered for their project which would have benefited this area and been far less abusive
with lights and noises to residents than their choice here. There should also be concern over the amount of traffic on
Shea Blvd. that would be further impacted by this project.

Thank you in advance for your consideration.

Cheers,
Bill Grove

Dear Councilwoman Stark -

I am writing to express my opposition to Phoenix Rezoning Case Z-41-20, and respectfully request that you join in this
opposition. This request pertains to the proposed Honor Health Medical Center on Shea, east of 56th Street, requiring a
rezoning from residential to commercial. My wife and I feel strongly that this rezoning for a 24/7 Urgent Care and
Emergency Room operation is not compatible with our neighborhood. This neighborhood was severely impacted by the
construction of the huge Mountainside Fitness facility which replaced La Camarilla; the construction of this Medical Center
will cause even greater permanent irreparable harm.

Thank you in advance for your support.

Subject: rezoning case Z-41-20

I am a resident of North Phoenix Promontory, my husband and I, along with all of the
surrounding neighborhoods are strongly opposed to Rezoning Case No. Z-41-20, the
HonorHealth Medical Center with 24/7 Urgent Care and Emergency Room Operations.

The current PAD zoning at this location, in accordance with City Municipal Code Sec
635, was designed to “provide a desirable and stable environment in harmony with that
of the surrounding area.” Contrary to this, the planned development is utterly out of
harmony with the character of the original zoning. Rezoning of a residential parcel
for a 24/7 Emergency Room could not be a more jarring replacement of the
idyllic tennis club that was previously zoned for this land.

Additionally, this rezoning proposal does not meet the City’s usage requirements for
this area. PUD Sec 671 states: “Appropriate limitations will be placed on the character
and intensity of permitted uses to promote neighborhood compatibility.” 24/7 Urgent
Care and Emergency Room operations, increased ambulance service, increased
traffic, associated late-night noises and lighting, are simply incompatible with the
character of a residential neighborhood.

This rezoning is particularly unnecessary given the existence of an obvious
compromise: Honor Health should simply be encouraged to find a nearby property that
is already correctly zoned. As more and more big-box chain stores inevitably close,
there will be multiple commercial properties available in the vicinity, either now or in the
near future. This would allow HonorHealth to provide its services while also preserving
the character of our neighborhood.

We respectfully request that this rezoning case be categorically denied.

Respectfully signed

Subject: Re: Paradise valley village nov 2 @6pm - Addendum to my written opposition

Good evening David,

As follow up to this evening’s Rezoning agenda item, overview, and discussion: HonorHealth Outpatient Medical Center-
Shea PUD, I am requesting my additional concerns be apart of the record for my written opposition to the proposed
building of the ER.

Alternative site recommendations offered by several speakers this evening included consideration of vacant buildings
located at PV Village Center (PVVC), ie., currently vacant Albertsons Store, Bed, Bath and Beyond (proposed closing),
etc. Please DONOT build at this location.

This immediate area is densely populated by retailers, homes, and condominium properties, ie., Milano Terrace, Tuscany
Villas, and Village at Stone Creek, etc.

Although, Milano Terrace has not rendered a formal position, many of its condo owners do not want the proposed ER
Center built on E. Shea Blvd. nor at PVVC. In past years, condo owners and residents have raised a myriad of problems
with PVVC management. Building the ER will potentially exacerbate problems.

The HOA’s, condo owners and entities adjacent to the area must have a viable opportunity to express their concerns,
which in cases mirror Dr. Rockowitz and others speaking this evening in opposition to the rezoning.

As I listen to Agenda Item 4: Z-14-20-2, it is ironic that communication with HOA’s can be problematic in the planning
process. Thus, limiting valuable feedback.

Again, I want to go on record registering my OPPOSITION to REZONING AND BUILDING THE HONORHEALTH OUTPATIENT
MEDICAL CENTER-SHEA.

David, know how much your hard work is appreciated. And, Dr. Rockowitz, many thanks for your advocacy.

Hello Mr. Simmons,

I am a condo owner in Milano Terrace, who is strongly against rezoning the land adjacent to Mountainside Fitness on E.
Shea Blvd., to accommodate Honor Health Care's proposed project for a 24/7 Emergency Center. Currently the land is
zoned as PAD-2, a residential classification that is congruent with this densely populated area of single family homes and
condominiums.

Additionally, traffic on E. Shea Blvd. is already extremely heavy, making it difficult for residents and guests to enter and
exit homes and condos adjacent to the area. Rezoning the land to PUD will exacerbate the problems we currently
face. Increased noise (sirens), traffic, pollution, etc., will impede the quality of life for residents and lead to property
value reduction.

Please register me to participate in the Village Planning Committee meeting on November 2, 2020 at 6pm. I am
requesting to speak and share my objection to the proposed rezoning project but will donate my allotted time to Dr.

I look forward to receiving your confirmation and to participating in the meeting.

Good Afternoon. I live at 5403 E, Cannon Drive 85253 in the North Phoenix Promontory subdivision.
My husband and I attended the virtual meeting that your council held regarding this proposed
I personally listened to the virtual board meeting as both

sides presented. Many of them were things that I had not thought
about.

One man who spoke said he had been in his house for over
forty years and he remembers when Scottsdale Airport came to
the neighborhood
wanting to build their small airport. The neighborhood ended up
granting
them their support. The problem is that once any of these groups receive their change in
zoning, there is no one to watch
over them to make sure that they keep their promises to the neighborhood. He went on to
say, who then would have thought
that this tiny airport would turn into a hub for private jets and place us right in their flight
pattern!!

In applying this to Honor Health, they say that right now they aren’t
planning to have any helicopters but once they get their zoning
change,

Page 273
there isn’t anyone that will supervise them and before you know it, right in the middle of
our residential area we will
have sirens during all hours of the night and eventually helicopters landing right in the
middle of our once million dollar homes. Our homes are our
greatest asset, please don’t let them come in here and reduce the value and the
desirability of our homes. It will have a domino affect…. our homes
are our retirement funds. We will become a drain on our system in every way when our
money is devalued.

It was also brought up that with so many businesses closing, Honor could have it’s
choice of property already zoned
for commercial use. Albertsons, Bed, Bath and Beyond, Paradise Valley Mall and the list
goes on are all available properties that already have the commercial zoning.
It makes sense that they use one of these properties instead of coming into a residential
area. Take a minute and think about how you would feel if this
was being proposed in your neighborhood. Would you want this coming in next door to
you?

We all know that the traffic on Shea is already a huge problem. Anyone driving on it
around 3 in the afternoon and beyond, can witness the congestion that takes place during
the weekdays every afternoon. Not only does it add to the pollution around us but it adds
noise and inconvenience as well. Our country is facing so many
problems already, do we really need to add another one? We are the ones who saved
and put into the system. Corporate greed needs to be stopped. The citizens of this
country deserve to be heard. There is absolutely no reason why they can’t adapt the tons
of commercial sites that are available to them.

Thank you for your attention, your time, and your efforts on our behalf. I wish your
family and you a healthy and happy holiday season.
Please make mine the same by not allowing Honor Health to come into our residential
neighborhood.

Re: Z-41-20-3
Paradise Valley Village Planning Committee
Public Meeting, November 2, 2020
Item #3

Dear Mr. Simmons,

I would like to register the strongest possible objection to the request to rezone 3.19 acres located approximately 400 feet
west of the northwest corner of 54th Street and Shea Boulevard from C-O, approved PAD-2 SP and PAD-2, approved
PAD-2 SP to PUD to allow a hospital and other commercial uses.

I own a home one street north of the planned hospital/24-hour hybrid outpatient medical center. I have a personal and
vested interest in the rezoning of the indicated property.

I object to the proposed rezoning and planned use for the following reasons:

1. The planned use for this property is inconsistent with the intention of the original zoning.
2. The change in zoning will allow for other unwanted and unsightly property use if the proposed hospital/24-hour
hybrid outpatient medical center is not built.
3. There are already at least 3 urgent care centers on Shea Blvd bounded by Tatum and Scottsdale Roads.
4. The proposed structure for the newly re-zoned area is inconsistent with the aesthetic of the area, will be unsightly,
and reduce property values for the homes surrounding the area.
5. The Mountainside Fitness building is unsightly and inconsistent with the aesthetic of the area, and an adjacent
commercial building will further degrade the neighborhood aesthetic.
6. The increase in traffic, including ambulance traffic, will increase noise levels, traffic and congestion, and will
decrease the safety of neighborhood pedestrians and cyclists who traverse this area. This planned use presents a
clear and present danger to the safety of the neighborhood.

I join my neighbors in strenuously opposing this rezoning request, and respectfully urge the committee to consider the
profoundly negative impact such a rezoning will necessarily have on the surrounding neighborhoods.

Sincerely yours,

Subject: PROPOSED ER/UC AT 54TH AND SHEA

Debra
I have lived in the neighborhood for 15 years and raised my children here
We live at Cannon and 54th, only ½ mile or less across the street
We drive this section of Shea Blvd daily if not multiple times

We saw the destruction of the La Camarilla, where my children learned to swim, play tennis and vote
While I understand that “progress” cannot allow us to hold on to the past
The MONSTROSITY that was build is not what was intended when the area was zoned, it has created traffic as well as an
eyesore for the Paradise Valley community.

The proposed ER/UC next to the mountainside site is not warranted wanted or within the zoning to my understanding
In no way should the zoning change to allow another non “residential” complementary structure
In addition to Traffic, Noise and Lighting concerns, the slow denigration of the zoning will allow future destruction of our
neighborhood

While Honor Health claims that this is the ONLY place they can put such a structure, amazingly they now have partnered
up with the Urgent Care at the corner of Tatum and Shea, which now holds 2 EMPTY big box stores (Albertsons and Bed
Bath and Beyond)

That shopping center has access from all 4 sides (yes there is actually a street that runs behind there to cut the corner)
There is ample parking and seems like a much better location that my back yard.
While I am not a city planner, it just makes no sense to put an Urgent Care/Emergency room in my backyard when there
is plenty of space ½ mile away
The traffic on Shea is horrible at times between Tatum and 56th street, and we don’t need more

Hope that my input helps

Stay Healthy and Safe
Thanks

Do you mind explaining which Albertson's shopping center? The development team searched properties for quite
sometime for the appropriate location. I would be more than happy to set up a call between you, myself and Wendy
Riddell to discuss further.

Subject: Phoenix Rezoning Case Z-41-20.

It is with extreme concern that I send you this email. I live at 5403 E. Cannon Drive, North Phoenix Promontory Homes,
85253. I listened to
the virtual meeting held on this case. I heard Honor Health present their case and then I heard many people from my
neighborhood speak and
present their feelings, They made so many outstanding points and observations, I can not imagine after hearing their
presentations that you
would pass the Phoenix Rezoning Case Z-41-20.
We are homeowners in the area and we feel strongly that adding an Urgent Care and Emergency Room
that will be open 24/7 hours will
attract more people from all over at all hours, increasing late night traffic and noise. Shea is already handling a
lot of traffic and rush hour starts at
three o’clock in the afternoon and traffic is bumper to bumper. The only way they will be able to reach
this facility is by using their siren.
Who wants a siren in their bedrooms or home? This property is zoned for a neighborhood
friendly and absolutely should not be
changed to 24/7 commercial zoning which is not compatible with the surrounding residential neighborhoods.
Once this facility is built, it will grow. Once they have their commercial zoning in hand, they will need to
increase the size . They will do so by
adding on. and taking the building closer to Shea. They will begin to build up . Eventually they will make it a
trauma center and helicopters
will provide transportation to those who need emergency care. Is there anything wrong with this picture as this
emergency room increases
in size and in handling their patients? Absolutely not and we all would support creating this facility just not by
changing the zoning of this property.
There is no reason why with all the commercial property available in our area that Honor Health needs to
invade a residential neighborhood. More and

Page 280
more commercial property is unfortunately becoming available with the passing of each day as the virus
continues to close businesses. Please
encourage Honor Health to choose a piece of property that is already zoned for their needs.
We are of course upset. This facility will devalue our property. It will increase the noise, affect
the environment and bring in more people.
Our neighbors saved and saved in order to afford our location. Most of us paid top dollar for our
property. Please don’t rezone this
property and take our investments and our life style, that we paid dearly for, and change it all with the rezoning
case Z-41-20 especially when
this organization has so many other options.
Thank you for listening to me and hopefully rejecting this rezoning.
Sincerely,
Larry R. Spero

Subject: Project near 55th Place and Shea

Hi - I am writing regarding the proposed HonorHealth Medical Center rezoning request near Shea and 54th Street. I
live in the Promontory neighborhood, across from the relevant site, along with my husband and children. We have
raised four children in this neighborhood, and there are some details about this area that must be considered in regards
to this rezoning case (Z-41-20).

We moved into the Promontory neighborhood when my children were very young (age 5 months to 9). I wanted to be in
a good school district for the children, and after significant research, decided that the Scottsdale district would be a
good fit. I graduated from Chaparral myself, and loved the idea of being in the same district while raising my children.
We really loved Cherokee Elementary and Sequoia Elementary, but the houses in the 85253/85254 area codes are not
cheap. However, the Promontory area and the area just north of Shea and 56th Streetare more affordable than the
PV/Scottsdale proper addresses, and so we bought in this neighborhood and sent our kids to Cherokee.

We are not the only ones who have had this idea. These neighborhoods are FILLED with children, teenagers, pets, and
parents walking babies. They are wonderful neighborhoods. The only real issue with them is that Shea Blvd, in this
area, is a nightmare. Cars drive by this stretch at 60-70 mph on a regular basis. I have never seen a police officer police
this area in the 15 years I have lived here. It is extremely difficult to make a left onto Shea from these areas (the ongoing
jokes about suicide turns are alarming). And there are SO many teenage drivers navigating this area.

Adding a Medical Center to an already dangerous area of Shea, in an area where young families are raising children, is
not only irresponsible. It is going to significantly increase the chance that children or young adults will die. This is not an
appropriate area for this Center. It is not fair to the families that live here. And it is not fair to the children.

If this rezoning does happen, please please please require a traffic light or two in this area. A light at 54th Streetwould
greatly help with the turns onto Shea from these family neighborhoods, and would also slow traffic.

Thank you for reading this. This rezoning would change the character of the neighborhood, and that would be a shame.
But the real reason that this rezoning is a problem is that it could lead to fatalities. Please don't allow this.

Subject: Concerned for proposed Honor Health Med Center

Hello Ms. Stark,

My husband and I live in the Promontory community off of Shea and we are very concerned about
the Proposed Honor Health Med Center that might go up right across the street from us.

Here are our concerns:
1) The amount of traffic that it will bring to the area (as you know it is already getting bad with
Mountainside Fitness and there are no lights nearby to regulate it).
2) The fact that the Honor Health will have an ER attached to it is concerning due to the noise it
will bring (ambulances, etc..)
3) We are beginning to lose the appeal of this ‘community neighborhood/area’ with the
Mountainside now up and then possibly this Honor Health facility - it just doesn’t seem right.
4) We are concerned with the violations that took place with Mountainside that the City messed
up on – we are not feeling comfortable with the City applying the appropriate restrictions
with Honor Health or any other facility that may open in that area.
5) We are in favor of having a closer ER to us, however we believe there are many other places
they could be looking in this area to put this facility.

Thank you for your consideration.

Subject: Rezoning of property at 52nd St and Shea Blvd for Honor Health Emergency Room/Urgent Care

Dear Ms. Stark and Mr. Waring
It is my understanding that Honor Health is requesting the reference property above to be rezoned from residential
zoning to a zone category that would allow them to build a 24/7 Emergency Room and Urgent Care. My home is located
at Shea Blvd and 56th St. Mr. Waring is my City Council representative and Ms. Stark is the City Council representative for
the area the property for the ER is located. This property was a classic tennis club until just a couple of years ago when
the tennis club closed and the property was used to build a fitness facility building (Mountainside Fitness) and Honor
Health wants to use the adjacent property for their ER/Urgent Care. My wife and I are opposed to this rezoning and
want it to stay residential. There are already 5 Urgent Care facilities within 2.5 miles of 56 th ST and Shea Blvd and the
closest one is a Honor Health facility. Honor Health Shea Medical Center is less than 5 miles away. Adding an 24/7 ER
next to residential property will be very disturbing with sirens all night long and increase in traffic. There are frequent
accidents at the intersection of 56 th St and Shea Blvd and although I couldn’t find recent data on the number of reported
accidents, I imagine you would access to this data. In my opinion it would be best for the local residents of this area and
Honor Health for that matter, if they want to have a 24/7 facility in the area, is to expand their current facility location at
4902 Shea Blvd, just 3 blocks away. Their current facility is located in a business strip mall and zoning would not be a
problem, I assume.

Dear Debra Stark,

I live in the LaCamarilla Estates near 54th Street and Shea (behind MountainSide Fitness and the
proposed HonorHealth 24/7 urgent/emergent care facility).

I am very concerned about rezoning case #E-41-20 for this new HonorHealth facility for the following
reasons:

Reason/Description Questions to ask yourself if you lived in our community
24/7 business Would you want a 24/7 business behind your house? This is a business
going into a Residential neighborhood. We bought our homes and
have an expectation of quiet when it gets dark.
Property values Who wants to live near a 24/7 business with threat of sirens/traffic,
etc. Damage our quality of life….24/7 urgent care vs. tennis courts.
Increase in traffic 85 patients per day? How will they exit if they want to go east on Shea-
-cross over MountainSide Fitness? Very difficult to go east on Shea
from this location. If they can't go left, they will feed into the
neighborhood on 54th street. Traffic lights would cause further
congestion on Shea. Already increased number of accidents on 54th
and Shea due to MountainSide Fitness.
Increase in noise/noise pollution Cannot guarantee no sirens anytime during the day or night for those
being transported to the hospital. This noise level comes from the
patients and traffic. Regarding the building, would you want to listen
to a blender all day and night? HonorHealth had a noise study done
and the increase in noise level would be equivalent to a blender.
Increased crime Looking for drugs. HonorHealth can have security, but the point is that
more individuals will come thinking there are drugs to be had bringing

Page 291
them closer to our neighborhood. They can jump the walls and head to
our community.

Increased lights 24/7 Light is already a nuisance coming from the MountainSide Fitness sign
and this issue has yet to be resolved. How much more light is going to
bleed into our homes and bedrooms at night due to HonorHealth?
Height of Building The proposed height has not substantially changed. The height of most
of the building (not the tallest point) is only a few feet different. The
ground has already been raised from the previous
development. Instead of having a view of the mountains, we will have
yet another huge building behind our homes.
Location Why does it need to be located here in a residential neighborhood?
There are so many locations already zoned for commercial that are
available with ample lighting, parking, existing lights, proper traffic
controls, etc.
Change We are already going through so much change, how much more
change do we need to endure? It is not like we are going to a similar
business.

I implore you to consider all these items as though you lived in our same community and not what is
going to bring $$$ to the City because it still can -- just from an alternate location.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,
Nancy Ribble

Health is not answering our questions and continues to give us a sales pitch about how great they are to the community.
They are giving the appearance that they are working with us when in fact they are not and I am very concerned about
them moving into the neighborhood and what it means for our immediate residential community. For example, the
height of the proposed Honor Health building is only one foot below the Mountainside Fitness building. The picture they
provided makes it look like it is less; however, I can do the math plus the building will be starting at a much higher

elevation than the prior building which also makes a huge difference. I have other concerns as well. Your continued

It's simple. This is a residential area and should remain as such. There are existing structures that are better
geographically suited for this type of business.

Do not destroy the Shea corridor with another massive structure which will bring too much traffic and noise to the area.

There will be too many cars in and out of Bella Terra, Mountainside and La Camarilla villas, possibly at the same time, all
added to the commuter traffic which will cause accidents.

Anyone that thinks this is a good idea - to destroy a residential area which includes million dollar homes and beautiful
properties, is slightly crazy. No one that I've spoken with disagrees that another medical establishment is not a bad
thing. BUT NOT HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Find another place.

Hello David,

This is a request to speak at the upcoming Paradise Valley Village Planning Committee agenda item 3.

As a concerned neighbor it’s extremely unfortunate that Honor Health has chosen a plan to rezone the lot directly
attached to our La Camarilla development. My late husband and I moved here 25 years ago hoping for a nice quiet
neighborhood. La Camarilla Racquet Club was a great neighbor for many, many years. The plan to rezone for a medical
emergency rooms seem unnecessary as there are so many options for medical offices within one mile of here.

1. Honor Health Primary Care Physicians have offices at 5010 East Shea. That Complex is very large and I’m sure there’s
availability.

2. The center at the NorthEast Corner of Tatum and Shea. Albertson’s went out of business years ago and nothing has
filled that space. It would be great for the community if something filled that space.

3. In that same complex, Bed Bath and Beyond is going out of business leaving another huge empty space.

4. Fast Med is also within that complex. I understand that Honor Health recently completed a joint venture with Fast
Med, perhaps there is a way to work within their existing building at 4902 East Shea.

I’m a big fan of Honor Health. I’m currently in treatment for lung cancer and due to complications have been
hospitalized twice at Honor Health Thompson Peak. Which, is the emergency room I go to or Honor Health Shea which
are both close enough, fully equipped and staffed with outstanding medical teams.

Again, its unfortunate that we all have to dedicate so much time and energy to rezoning something that is so
unnecessary and extremely intrusive on our neighborhood.

Thank you,
Peggy Jackson

Subject: HonorHealth and related projects on Shea and 54th st

Dear Councilwoman Stark,

I wanted to add my voice to the concern over the development of the HonorHealth ER
project. As a physician I have great respect and interest in seeing the community
receive access and availability to health care services. However, this seems an
inappropriate location for a project such as this, and seems a marked deviation
from the type of zoning that was intended for this residential neighborhood. In
addition to the inappropriateness of the large project in this area- both
esthetically and in terms of the effect on those that live nearby, this is likely to
add greatly to the congestion and traffic in the area. It is already nearly
impossible to turn off Shea into many of these residential streets, and this has
grown worse with the traffic related to Mountain Fitness. The number of
accidents or near accidents continues to increase and will only get worse with
added business activity thrust into this small area. I personally have barely
avoided collisions with last second maneuvers as cars failed to see me as they
raced to enter or leave the property area. I really encourage you all to strongly
discourage this development.

I would also request you seriously examine the zoning and signage issues
related to Mountain Fitness- they have certainly misled the neighborhoods and
likely the City- and their failure to even make any effort to reduce the unneeded
all night signage lighting on the building shows how little regard they have for the
local residents.

Dear Councilwoman Stark -

I am writing to express my opposition to Phoenix Rezoning Case Z-41-20, and respectfully request that you join in this
opposition. This request pertains to the proposed Honor Health Medical Center on Shea, east of 56th Street, requiring a
rezoning from residential to commercial. My wife and I feel strongly that this rezoning for a 24/7 Urgent Care and
Emergency Room operation is not compatible with our neighborhood. This neighborhood was severely impacted by the
construction of the huge Mountainside Fitness facility which replaced La Camarilla; the construction of this Medical Center
will cause even greater permanent irreparable harm.

Thank you in advance for your support.

Subject: Rezoning Case: HonorHealth Shea PUD is Z-41-20-3

Good afternoon

My wife, young son and I are residents in La Camarilla subdivision. I’ve been a phoenix metro resident for 30 years. We moved to La
Camarilla from mid-town Phoenix a bit more than four years ago for the schools for our son, as well as seeking more of a suburban, quieter
pace of life further away from the typical noise experienced in midtown or downtown. We’ve been extremely happy with the subdivision as well
as the neighborhood at large.

We are troubled by the proposed plans to build a 24/7 clinic with emergency room facility adjacent to our nice quiet neighborhood. We can not
see the rationale for changing the complexion of the light commercial plot that abuts our neighborhood in this manner. For years, that plot of
land has housed a fitness center with tennis courts that caused no late night noise or excessive lighting issues. Stated differently, the facility
was a good neighbor to the homeowners. The oversized new fitness center has changed part of that already with the nearly obscene late night
lighting, but adding an emergency room clinic on the adjacent land would forever alter much of the allure that La Camarilla attracted us to from
the start.

The current quietness of the area lends itself well to taking advantage of the cool spring and fall nights with the windows open. It would only
take a few nights of being woken up to blaring sirens before that luxury would be lost forever. Maybe that seems like a minor issue to some but
it’s not to our family nor our neighbors. It’s a quality of life issue.

There are four corners of properly zoned commercial real estate less than 1/2 mile to the west from our neighborhood at Tatum and Shea. I
wouldn’t pretend to know the benefit to Honor Health by pursuing our specific neighboring plot of land versus the large quantity of possibilities
at Tatum and Shea , or other similar areas, but it baffles me to think a fair minded business like Honor Health would think this location adjacent
to La Camarilla would produce a positive relationship between our neighbors and the business. It also troubles me that long-term zoned
adjacent real estate could so easily be rezoned and changed forever. If successful, what should we brace ourselves for, for a subsequent
change in the near future?

Please do not allow this 24/7 emergency room project to proceed.

Thank you.

Subject: Rezoning Case: HonorHealth Shea PUD is Z-41-20-3

Dear Ms. Stark,

The purpose of this email is not to convince you of the evils of the planned HonorHealth "Outpatient" Medical Center -
Shea, but to ask you to help convince HonorHealth to collaborate with neighborhood residents to relocate it to a more
appropriate place in the neighborhood.

The label of "Outpatient" is misleading, as HonorHealth plans to operate a 24-hour Emergency Room there, transporting
patients by ambulance to HonorHealth Shea down the road as needed.

And yet, knowing the above, we with think this facility is fantastic to have in our neighborhood. The problem is that
HonorHealth could not have done a worse job of picking the lot in our neighborhood to build it.

Our reasons consist of the following:

1. Unusually Dangerous Traffic - We highly urge you to drive by the proposed location. Phoenix traffic is bad, but this
particular spot is unusually dangerous. Here, Shea Blvd. Eastbound backs up all the way from 56th Street, and Shea
Blvd Westbound backs up all the way from Tatum Blvd. In front of the proposed HonorHealth site, it is not unusual for
traffic to be at a slow stop-and-go throughout the day. HonorHealth's own plans require ambulances to make a left turn
out of their facility onto Shea. Anyone living here, and folks at Mountainside Fitness next door, can attest that left turns
onto Shea are nearly impossible because of the traffic, and we residents all have our own workarounds through the
neighborhood to circumvent it. In fact, the City of Phoenix just finished installing a new traffic light at the commercial
center of 4700 block of E. Shea because of this same problem. There is no traffic light at the proposed HonorHealth site.
Following HonorHealth's ambulance plan, ambulances will have to make risky left turns through traffic, or use a
workaround like a u-turn on Shea or an alternate path through residential streets - with disruptive sir ens and lights running
the whole time. The many non-emergency vehicles will also be faced with risky turns out of the parking lot. We drive this
stretch of Shea often, and we are very concerned about our safety with all the new traffic trying to enter Shea there.

2. Missed Opportunity for Adaptive Re-Use - Within a just a few blocks of the proposed site, there are literally acres of
empty commercial real estate space. We are 2nd and 3rd generation Phoenicians, and the pain we feel every time we
see our buildings thrown away never lessens. Paradise Valley Mall and the other retail malls around Tatum & Cactus,
and Tatum & Shea all have occupancy issues and are at risk. There is good news - this poses a terrific opportunity for
anyone wanting to locate their business here, including HonorHealth. We residents would welcome with open arms the
planned HonorHealth facility in one of our unoccupied storefronts. However, instead of working with us and being part of
our community, HonorHealth decided to leave us out of the planning and leave our empty business space to a dismal fate.

3. Directly Disrupts Too Many Residences - The proposed site might be on Shea Blvd, but in truth it is a wholly
residential area merely divided by Shea Blvd. There are many residences on both sides of Shea here. The facility will
also directly border single family homes that never had to deal with frequent ambulance sirens and lights, and is across
the street from residential condominiums with hundreds of residents that never had to deal with problems from lighted
signs, headlights shining directly into their windows from across the street and frequent ambulance noise. The average
ambulance siren is 130 decibels - a tremendous increase over the 38.4-79.9 decibels that HonorHealth says is the current
ambient noise level in the area.

4. Wildly Inappropriate Zoning - Our understanding is that this site was zoned PAD-2 so it could act as a buffer between
the La Camarilla homes and Shea Blvd. A highly active 24x7 Emergency Room is a wild departure from the spirit of the
lot's original zoning, and we oppose that departure and HonorHealth's request to change the lot's zoning.

Page 307
Let us be clear - We do want this new HonorHealth facility to be built in our neighborhood. We also want people to be able
to exit the facility safely, and want it to not negatively impact our quality of life and that of our neighbors. With all the
available commercial real estate close by, we strongly believe it is possible to have all those things.

We hope the residents here can count on your leadership to help us reach a solution that works for everyone.

Full disclosure, by a technicality of a few hundred feet we currently live in Paradise Valley. Regardless of our current
official citizenship, we are proud Phoenicians through and through, and would love to discuss this issue further if you
would like.

Best,

The adult residents of 10450 N. 52nd St., Paradise Valley, AZ 85253

Subject: Propsed honor health 54th st and Shea

I am writing on behalf of my husband, Dr Burr Ross, and myself to express our strong disapproval for the proposed
emergency center on Shea. My husband and I have lived in this neighborhood for 35 years. We bought one of the first
lots available, because of the family friendly tennis club in front of us on Shea and the intimate neighborhood setting.
We are terribly disappointed with Mountainside going in and the accompanying traffic and signage. But we are even
more unhappy with the proposed health/emergency center with all the potential noise, ambulances, etc. associated.
There are multiple medical centers within walking distance of our homes. I cannot imagine how there could be a need,
in the first place.
But more importantly, we were assured as original owners that property was could only be used for recreation!

The traffic at 54th street and Shea is already at excessive. The lights from Mountainside Fitness already exceed city
regulations. The shopping center at Tatum and Shea has countless buildings empty that could be used for such a health
center. There are so many reasons why this proposal makes no sense and would be damaging to us as homeowners.

Please put yourself, as a homeowner, in our position when you make your recommendations.

As a long time resident,23 years, of the North Promontory development, which is across the street from the proposed
24/7 Honor Health Emergency facility, I oppose its constriction.
My reason for this that the area is currently zoned for residential usage and there is no community need for such a facility
the area. There already exists an Honor Health Urgent Care facility
three blocks West on Shea Blvd. A 24/7 facility will be disruptive and disturb the tranquil residential nature that presently
exists.
Shea Blvd. east of 56th street is a six lane road that narrows to four lanes in the area of the proposed site. Construction
will only lead to further road congestion, traffic delays, and possible accidents. Also resulting
in problems entering and leaving the communities on the South side of Shea Blvd. The emergency vehicles that will be
arriving, once construction is completed will cause further traffic problems in both directions. The noise
from the sirens will be disturbing to the local residents.
The planning committee should be aware that there exists ample commercial sites West of the proposed site at Tatum
and Shea Blvd's. There are vacant lots as well as vacant stores that could be converted to medical space.
I believe that it is the obligation, duty, and responsibility of the committee to have the best interest of the local community
in mind when deciding these matters.
Therefore, I am requesting that the planning committee deny the request for a change in zoning.
Thank you for your consideration.

Subject: Honor Heath Facility at 54th and Shea Blvd. (Case Number Z-41-20)

Importance: High

Mr. Simmons, Mr. Koman, Ms. Stark,

My wife and I live in the Promontory subdivision which is just South of the proposed Honor Health facility. We don’t
have any objection to the development of a health care facility in the general area but we strongly object to its proposed
placement at 54th Street and Shea and we will explain why.

Most would agree that having a medical facility similar to what Honor Health proposes is a positive for nearby residents
but placing such a facility in a residential setting when the commercial market is shifting almost daily from large box
stores and commercial centers is, at best, premature.

Easy access to such a facility benefits a broader segment of the population so why shouldn’t the facility be placed closer
to freeways like state route 51 or the 101 to make it easier for patients from a larger geographic area to access it. To
access the proposed site on Shea and 54 th Street would require an individual to navigate 4 or 5 traffic lights if they are
driving East on Shea and a similar number if driving West. Placing the facility in a commercially zoned location near one
of the larger freeways would facilitate access for the consumer and reduce traffic at traffic lights on Shea and would be
in compliance with commercial zoning guidelines and restrictions.

Currently there are more than half a dozen urgent or medical care facilities in commercially zoned locations off of Shea
Blvd (Honor Health Fast Med, Honor Health Medical Group, Phoenix Children’s Scottsdale Urgent Care, Banner Urgent
Care, Minute Clinic and Banner Health Center on East Greenway Road to name just a few). All of those facilities are
located in commercially zoned locations and are not zoned for PAD-2.

The neighboring residents don’t object to having medical facilities nearby as noted above. The residents object to
placing it literally in their back yard when so many commercial facilities are undergoing dynamic changes. The residents
are looking to the City to comply with their own zoning policies and to protect the interests of the resident who made
decisions to acquire property in the area because they were assured that zoning requirements would be adhered to by
the City. If the City is not going to adhere to these zoning restrictions then we believe the City should explore how best
to compensate residents for their diminished property values.

Honor Health itself has stated that placing such facilities in residential locations is the wave of the future. Based on
Honor Health’s own forecasts this residential strategy will be successful and with its great use comes additional traffic –
not just East and West traffic but North and South traffic as well. If Honor Health’s forecasts are correct, then it is
reasonable to expect Honor Health to return with future proposals for expansion. Once the zoning of this Honor Health
facility is approved what keeps the City from approving future proposals especially since the facility is already in place

Another concern is compliance with PAD-2 zoning restrictions. Honor Health has outlined what restrictions would be in
place should their proposal be approved by the City but what assurances residents have that the City of Phoenix will
enforce those zoning restrictions when they clearly have not done so with the adjoining Mountainside facility.

Page 312
PAD-2 zoning restrictions for the area prohibited Mountainside from having a structure as high or building signage as
bright as it is at night (PAD-2 only permits a business that coexists on residential zoned land). Signage for the area
should be much more subtle, in a halo format, to fit into the neighborhood but that clearly didn’t happen nor has the
City taken any action to correct it. Presumably the City’s response is – Oh well, it’s too late now. Such a response is
unacceptable and corrective action is needed now. Drive down Shea Blvd. from State Route 51 to the 101 and the only
signs similar to Mountainside’s will be found in commercially zoned space – not property that is zoned PAD-2. With that
said, why should the residents affected believe the City is sincere in complying with legally approved zoning guidelines
and restrictions?

The former occupant of the space (La Camarilla) complied with the existing PAD - 2 zoning (Residential Zoning) guidelines
and restrictions and coexisted well with its neighbors but the City clearly allowed Mountainside to depart from the
legally required restrictions so again, if the City is not going to comply or actively regulate then why should residents
believe this process is not simply a “form over substance” process. Once the City approves Honor Health’s PUD zoning
proposal what keeps Honor Health or the City from deviating from their proposal or the City from acquiescing to any
proposed change. Who pays the price for this lack of compliance, not the businesses nor the city administrators or
elected officials who permitted it to happen. The residents pay the price and it is a price that will continue to be paid so
long as these facilities are permitted to stray from the legal restrictions and PUD zoning plan.

In light of the above, can one reasonably believe that the City, its administrators and our elected officials, will look out
for the best interests of the area residents and comply with the PUD restrictions when they didn’t do so with respect to
Mountainside? Under the circumstances we believe most would agree that the City has failed to adhere to its own
zoning policies so we believe that residents have a legitimate reason to be concerned and to object.

In summary, neighbors don’t have any objection to Honor Health developing a facility in the area but residents and
neighbors object to its placement at 54th Street and Shea. With the rapidly changing commercial market we believe it
would be best to place the facility in a commercially zoned area away from residential homes. Honor Health obviously
believes that their health care model will be successful and will grow so Honor Health should identify a location that will
allow for future growth. If Honor Health does so then I am confident that residents and neighbors in the geographic
area of 54th Street and Shea will benefit and potentially use it.

David-

As residents at the Promontory since its inception. Becky and Terry Hamlin are adamantly opposed to the
current rezoning as proposed. The current location is not suitable for a 24 hour 7 day a week Urgent care
facility.

The air traffic above Paradise Valley and Promontory in an out bound to Scottsdale Airport is loud enough
without adding the sirens proposed at the Honor Health facility.

Pluse, Shea narrows to two lanes and the additional traffic generated from Mountain Side will add to a traffic
problem that the city needs to address before considering rezoning of property in the traditionally residential
area.

Again we are opposed to the rezoning proposed by Honor Health

David,
We have registered to speak on Feb. 1, 2021 dealing with the rezoning case: HonorHealth Shea PU is Z-41-20-3.
We have previously written to you stating our objections to this rezoning. We have also signed the petition from our
neighborhoods. We would like to donate our speaking time to Neal L. Rockowitz, M.D.
We both feel strongly about not rezoning this property. There is a lot of property available that is already zoned
in the area for commercial use. We are so concerned about the added traffic to Shea that this project will bring to our
residential neighborhood. Hopefully, you have driven on Shea any time after three o’clock in the afternoon and been
stuck in that traffic.
It is literally bumper to bumper. I can’t imagine how someone needing emergency assistance would be able to navigate
their way through
that kind of traffic. As the traffic continues to build, they will eventually have to resort to using sirens. As this facility’s
business continues
to grow, so will the traffic and with it open 24/7, it will have a major impact on our environment as well as our
neighborhood.
In addition, the lighting and signage will not be compatible with our homes. We have put in a great deal of money into
our homes.
Therefore, our biggest asset/investment, our homes and our property values will go down.
We have lived in this area for a long time. When Scottsdale Airport wanted zoning for a small airport with hardly
any traffic, we supported it.
Now it is a busy airport and our homes are right in the middle of all their flight patterns. Once they had their zoning,
over the years, they forgot about
all the promises they had made to get our support.
While HonorHealth says now that there will be no sirens 24/7 and there are no immediate plans for this building to
become a trauma center,
once they get their zoning, it is my understanding that some years down the line, they can add the sirens. Eventually,
they could add a helicopter pad.
Would you want your home near this type of facility?

There is absolutely no reason to do this to our neighborhood. With businesses closing at Tatum and Shea and on
Cactus, there
is plenty of commercial property for them to choose from. When the La Camarilla developer wanted to build the La
Camarilla Estates
sub-division of homes and a tennis club, we were all excited to have those facilities available to us. He created a tasteful
complex and
actually added to our neighborhood. When he sold his club property, that property already had been rezoned and when
Mountainside
built their building, they needed no approval to build that awful building. Please, please do not rezone this property and
further add
to the devaluation of our homes.
Thank you for giving our speaking time to Dr. Neal Rockowitz and please take my letter to heart and turn this
rezoning down.

Page 315
Sincerely,

Helene and Larry Spero

P.S. I just received a notice that Harvest Health is seeking rezoning on the corner of Tatum and
Shea. https://www.phoenix.gov/pddsite/Documents/PZ/Z-38-20n.pdf
This is to establish a Marijuana Dispensary. That particular shopping center has limited parking. I also would worry
about security and safety.
Just a few doors down is a yogurt store where families can sit outside at tables and enjoy their treat together.
Our neighborhood is a family
area with lots of children. The Marijuana registry where you had an appointment to have your examination & to
qualify for your medical marijuana card was located
on the SE corner of Scottsdale Road and Shea. It was located on the inside of that strip mall. They had plenty of
parking. Because of the set up
of those buildings, it would provide privacy of those seeking to purchase Marijuana. It would be a win/win situation
for everyone. Please protect
our neighborhood.

Ms. Wendy Riddell, representing the applicant, went over the PUD request in
great detail. She outlined why the PUD designation was being proposed as
opposed to a traditional zoning designation. She highlighted the increased

Mr. Eric Cashman asked what the difference between the like facility was
located on Thunderbird and this location.

Ms. Riddell shared that this product type is a first of its find and is not
comparable to the Thunderbird location.

Mr. Murdock stated that the Thunderbird location is a Scottsdale Healthcare
facility, not an Honor Health facility.

Vice Chair Gubser asked what is allowed in the PAD-2 designation.

Ms. Louisa Ward asked if the PAD-2 was an older designation that originally
allowed residential and minor commercial uses found in C-1.

Vice Chair Gubser asked if C-1 would allow this use.

Ms. Riddell shared the C-1 designation would allow this use with a Use Permit.

Ms. Toby Gerst applauded the applicant for proposing double the setback
requirement and asked about toxic waste generated on site. She asked what the
disposal method is for the toxic medical waste and how are the neighbors
protected from such waste.

Ms. Riddell shared that all medical waste is stored internally and disposed of by
a third-party contractor.

Ms. Gerst applauded the signage proposed.

Mr. Popovic asked if ambulances would be dropping people off.

Mr. Murdock explained that this facility will not pull patience from other areas
and will only serve the local community. Therefore, ambulances will not drop
people off too often from outside the area.

Ms. Ward asked if there will be a helicopter pad and service.

Ms. Riddell shared that there will not be helicopter service at this location, and it
is specifically forbidden in the PUD ordinance for this site. Therefore, there will
never be an opportunity to add helicopter service at this location.

Public Comment:

Dr. Neal Rockowitz, speaking for himself and several other neighbors, opened
by sharing when he moved to the area. He lightly touched on the PAD-2 zoning
designation requirements found in the City of Phoenix Zoning Ordinance. He
shared that he and his neighbors have concerns about lighting, blocked view
corridors, signage concerns, emergency vehicle traffic, noise and the specific use
at this location. He also shared concerns with the proximity of this use in relation
to single-family homes, the 24-hour operation of the use, and the massing of the
building.

Mr. Steward Taylor stated that he lives on the south side of Shea Blvd. He has
concerns about the representation from the applicant. He is concerned that
promises made will not be kept over time and they can’t be enforced by the City
of Phoenix. He feels the proposed use is an inappropriate use of the land. Major
concerns with use are sirens, lights, traffic, and the character of the area
changing.

Mr. Terry Hamlin shared that he resides at 5432 E Alan Ln. Shared concerns
about the proposed zoning designation, air traffic, noise resulting from air traffic,
and feels a better use of the land would be a public park.

Ms. Lauren Leonard residing at 5401 E Alan St shared concerns about light
pollution, noise, traffic and the business model of the proposed use. She stated
that this use would not be a benefit to the community, but a burden.

Mr. Luis Lopez residing at 5358 E Mercer Ln shared concerns about the public
neighborhood meeting times. He believes the applicant is lying to the public. He
has traffic and safety concerns as well.

Ms. Nancy Ribble residing at 5227 E Saguaro Dr ditto’ d Neal’s comments. He
also has concerns about the 24-hour business in proximity to residential, property
values, traffic and noise.

Mr. Tim La Sota residing at 2198 E Camelback Rd has concerns with the use
proposed at this location.

Mr. Maulik Parikh resides on the south side of Shea Blvd. He shared concerns
with the character of the area changing, property values decreasing and the long-
range urban vision for the area. He shared that there are many vacant
commercial uses in the area that this applicant could utilize where the use is
more appropriate. He is opposed.

Mr. Rafael Dutoit shared that he is 10 years old. He shared that he was a
member of the tennis club, which was replaced with Mountain Side Fitness. He
would like to see a public park on this site to give local children a place to play.

committee to recommend approval.

Mr. Gino Davi residing at 4650 E Alan Ln. shared that he is in favor of the
proposal.

Applicants Response:

Ms. Wendy Riddell iterated that this proposal has nothing to do with the
Mountain Side Fitness site. It is a different developer, owner, and applicant. She
stated that the tennis club is not coming back. She stated that change is hard for
most people in most scenarios. She also stated that this is not prime residential

real estate as it fronts onto Shea Blvd, which is an extremely busy major arterial.

the best choice.

VPC Discussion:

opponents and proponents of the cases. She stressed that this is of utmost
importance.

dependent upon many factors including number of registered speakers, length of
presentations as some projects are more complex than others and length of
agenda.

Mr. David Simmons, staff, went over the request with the committee. He
covered the existing General Plan Land Use designation on the site and
surrounding area, the uses in the surrounding area, the height limitations
stipulated as well as enhanced buffers abutting existing large lot residential uses
to the north as well as the enhanced streetscape along Shea Boulevard. He also
went over stipulation rationale with the committee.

Mr. Alex Popovic asked about emergency vehicle operations on the site.

Mr. Simmons shared that this is non regulatory from a zoning perspective.
However, he shared that the applicant has written a small section into the
development narrative that addresses this.

Ms. Toby Gerst asked if there were other emergency rooms such as this.

200 West Washington Street, 3rd Floor • Phoenix, Arizona 85003-1611 • (602) 262-6882
Page 323
Mr. Simmons shared that this is a fairly new product type.

Ms. Anita Mortensen shared that she has traffic concerns.

Ms. Wendy Riddell, with Berry Riddell, LLC, representing the applicant, gave an
in depth presentation covering what she and the development team have done
since the last public hearing including numerous phone calls to neighbors,
meeting with Dr. Rockowitz on site and took pictures from his yard to determine
best mitigation measures. As a result, they made the following clarifications and
modifications:
• The permitted uses have been modified from C-1 and hospital use to
Commercial Office and hospital use (prohibiting stand-alone retail uses).
• RV parking and a helistop have been added as prohibited uses.
• Lighting standards were clearly defined, to ensure all lighting is shielded
and light poles do not exceed 15 feet in height.
• Added language to ensure that building colors are neutral and non-
reflective.
• Explored additional traffic mitigation with the City of Phoenix and
committed to making improvements required by the City.
Ms. Riddell added that as a result of public outreach, additional landscaping has
been added in the northern parking lot. She highlighted the enhanced building
and landscape setbacks adjacent to residential to the north and highlighted the
building height is well below the development standards for the underlying zoning
designation. She proposed a stipulation that would restrict the HonorHealth
facility from contracting with emergency service agencies, which would cut down
in siren usage. Lighting, signage and hours of operation were also covered.

Ms. Toby Gerst asked the applicant to show the hospital comparison graphic so
she the VPC can see how close those facilities are to residential.

Ms. Riddell stated that the hospital comparison graphic depicts all large hospital
campuses and we do not know exactly how close residential is to these
campuses but can check and get back.

Vicechair Joe Lesher asked why this project couldn’t be located somewhere
else.

Ms. Riddell shared that some commercial use will be going on this site if this
project does not move forward. She went on to say that other commercial lots in
the area that have leases which preclude this use from going on other nearby
sites.

Mr. Alex Popovic stated that he applauds the development teams’ efforts,
particularly in regard to public outreach. He said the efforts are commendable.

Public Comment:

Dr. Neal Rockowitz, residing at 5337 E Sahuaro Drive, abutting the site to the
north, stated that the applicant is very arrogant. He shared that he any 35 of his

200 West Washington Street, 3rd Floor • Phoenix, Arizona 85003-1611 • (602) 262-6882
Page 324
fellow neighbors, whom donated time to him to speak, have concerns about
traffic, land use, livability of area, height, and the appropriateness of the project
next to a residential area. He also stated that this would constitute leap from
zoning as there should be a C-O, R-5, or some lighter zoning designation
between residential and a use such as the one proposed. A 24/7 emergency
center directly adjacent to residential is unacceptable. Dr. Rockowitz went on to
discuss the history of how the area developed. He shared that he and many of
his neighbors have a jaded view of city processes from past experiences,
particularly the neighboring Mountainside Fitness project. He stated that a yes
vote for this project would be misguided and wrong.

Mr. Bill Christian shared that two other neighbors donated time to him. He
shared that this proposal does not fit the character of the area. The noise,
intensity, sirens and increased amount of traffic over time would be a detriment to
the existing residence int eh area. He stated that there has got to be a more
suitable place for this use.

Mr. La Sota, representing 29 homeowners on the south side of Shea, shared
that an emergency room is an emergency room, despite what size the facility is.
This use is going to be loud and does not belong in a residential area.

Mr. Bruce Beverly stated that this is the wrong use in the wrong place at the
wrong time. He shared that commercial facilities are vacating rapidly due to
changing market conditions. Why not move to an exiting commercial site.

Ms. Sherry Brown, residing on 57th Street and Shea, stated that she is shocked
that this is even proposed at this location as there are already several similar
uses in the area.

Ms. Tami Erdman stated that their ha been a lack of communication with the
applicant and the notification area is not large enough. Has concerns about
noise.

Ms. Nancy Ribble shared that she has concerns about noise and increased light
pollution.

Mr. Maulik Parikg has concerns about traffic, proposed use, and character of
area changing.

Mr. Luis Lopez stated that this proposal is unique.

Mr. Geno Davi shared that he is in support of the request.

Mr. Doug Leventhal shared that he is in support of the proposal from two
perspectives. It is a community amenity and the design and use are outstanding.

Mr. Dan Cheyne supports the project as it is a great amenity in the
neighborhood.

Mr. Doug Heltne shared that he is in support of the project.

Ms. Julie Silverthorn has concerns about public safety and traffic.

Mr. Bruce Bethancourt in in support of the proposal.

Mr. Paul Katsenes is in support of the project as this is a 1st class medical
service.

Mr. Bryan Jeffries shared his support for the request.

Ms. Nancy Ganz stated that one’s core beliefs reflect who they are and that is a
good thing. We, the neighbors, have concerns about this project.

Mr. Victor Felicia shared his support for the project.

Applicant Response:

Ms. Riddell asked a rhetorical question, why this location? Because it is needed.
She went overt the meeting minutes from the case history on this site a sited that
this was never intended to be open space, a park or anything other than
commercial. She is proposing an additional stipulation that would restrict he
facility from contracting with private emergency vehicle services, which would
greatly reduce the number of emergency vehicle trips in and out of the site.

VPC Response:

Mr. Alex Popovic asked what community outreach had been conducted? He
shared he is in support of the project.

Ms. Riddell shared that they had done extensive public outreach, created a
website and had numerous Zoom meetings.

Mr. Robert Goodhue asked what could be built by tight without a rezone.

Ms. Riddell shared that government buildings, group homes, churches, schools
and other light commercial uses could be built here by right.

Mr. Alan Sparks shared that the has concerns with the Mountain Side Fitness
violations.

Mr. David Simmons, staff, said that he would reach out to NSD to get a list of
violations on the Mountain Side site.

Ms. Toby Gerst shared that this project should be in a location that gets buy in
from the community. She said the concept is fabulous, but this site is
inappropriate. Therefore, she is not in support.

Ms. Anita Mortensen stated that this site is not a good spot for this use.

Ms. Jennifer Hall stated that she is conflicted with the case. She can see both
sides of the argument. She said that this case has nothing to do with Mountain
side Fitness next door. She shared that all of the public comment is needed and
200 West Washington Street, 3rd Floor • Phoenix, Arizona 85003-1611 • (602) 262-6882
Page 326
appreciated. However, we must look at this from a land use perspective. She is
in support.

Ms. Kathryn Belous shared that this is a viable use for the site and is in support.

Mr. Popovic stated that the lady that was struck by the car on Shea was running
in and out of traffic and was most likely under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

Ms. Mortensen wanted it to be on the record that the lady was not under the
influence but has a disability.

Subject: HonorHealth project

Dear Councilwoman Stark,
My name is Wayne Spiekerman and I am a neighbor in the La Camarilla area. I have heard about
the potential HonorHealth project and I wanted to let you know that I am in full support. I believe
this will provide a much-needed use to the surrounding community. I have heard some of the
people in my community spreading lies about this project trying to scare others into opposition
and I think that is disgraceful. The fact is, this has nothing to do with lights, sirens, or
Mountainside Fitness, they just want to keep it empty land. Unfortunately for them, they don’t
own the land and they don’t get to bully other people away either. I am asking you to continue to
represent us and those in your community who listen to the facts and support this project. Thank
you for all that you do.

Sincerely,

Subject: Citizen Comment on Z-41-20-3 before the PV VPC on 01 Feb 2021

Mr. Simmons,

I submit my comments on Case Z-41-20-3, at Shea and 54 th Street, to support a
future Outpatient Medical Center for HonorHealth:

Mr. Chairman, VPC Members,

I am Jon Altmann, A 20-year home owner residing at 5305 E. Sweetwater Av in
the City of Phoenix. I am past VPC member and currently serve as the chairman
of another city commission. To be clear, I am not representing the commission I
chair, but only myself as a homeowner in the area potentially effected by this
zoning case. I am retired from the U.S. Navy and now serve as a public high
school teacher in the Paradise Valley VPC. I also operate a public safety
consulting firm specializing in emergency planning to including emergency
medical services. In the past three years my clients have included three Arizona
cities and one regional airport with regular schedule airline service. I am familiar
with the demands and needs for regional health care services and facilities.

I support the request for change in Case Z-41-20-3. The increasing population
growth in the area and possible additional density growth in the area creates an
additional demand for health care services, and services that are in closer
proximity to where people live. My concern has been the amount of unused or
underused commercial type property in the area over the past several years. The
potential locating of a health care facility that will have an emergency clinic adds
a vital service and allows use of the commercial type space for clean, quiet and
appropriate use.

Your vote in support of this case would be appreciated and is supported by the
this area home owner.

Very respectfully yours,

JON C. ALTMANN, M. Ed. Secondary Ed.
Senior Chief Intelligence Specialist

Re: Z-41-20-3 HonorHealth Outpatient Medical Building

Dear Mr. Simmons & To Whom it May Concern:

We are writing regarding the Honor Health project proposal, the City zoning application of
which we have reviewed in great detail.

My family has lived in the neighborhood that this proposed project serves since May 2000. This
is the neighborhood in which we actually live, work, grocery shop, dine, go to school, walk, bike
and visit with our neighbors every day. Even our primary doctors are just down the street on
Shea (at Honor Health Primary Care). This is truly is our community, and we care about it.

Upon learning of this proposed project, we took great interest in reading the application
materials (we are very disappointed with the aesthetics of the Mountainside Fitness and
regretted not having then taken the opportunity to provide feedback, support or otherwise, as
part of the community input to the zoning process of that project). After having studied this
projec s application materials, we d like o make known our conclusion to overwhelmingly
support Honor Health s bringing its new healthcare facility to our neighborhood.

We believe the Honor Health use will be an amenity by providing my family, neighbors and
extended community the access to convenient, state-of-the-art, medical care in a local setting.
The current options in the event of an urgent medical need are limited to urgent care (which
seldomly demonstrates any urgency, s all doesn ha e a doc or, and is insufficient for more
severe/pressing needs) or drive many miles away to wait in the ER at a full-size, regional
hospital (and suffer that increased expense). We would much rather have the option to visit a
neighborhood facility to meet all of our medical needs (urgent or otherwise), including being
able see an actual doctor.

As it relates to the project location and design, we are in full support of these revised versions
as well. We are glad to see the lengths that the proposal addresses the overall project
aesthetics: increased building setbacks to benefit the neighbors, limited overall height (at 28 s
a Mountainside), higher-end architectural materials, enhanced landscape buffers, dark-sky
lighting, convenient driveway circulation, etc. The design will also actually bring much
improvement to the visual aesthetic along Shea; which we drive and bike every day.

We would assume the few neighbors whose property lines immediately border Mountainside
fitness were not pleased with that project. We are certainly sympathetic to them as the
Mountainside development was clearly not as considerate of the neighborhood in its site
planning and design; this is evidenced by the end result. By contrast, however, we are
confident that Honor Heal h s conscientious architectural efforts will be a huge improvement to

the neighborhood. Frankly, it will actually serve to soften the commercial look of
Mountainside.

Last, I also suggest not to overlook the huge advantage this project brings to all of the local
households and families that will benefit by having healthcare brought close to home and
further improve the number of high-quality amenities that make this community so highly
desirable in which to live.

I will virtually attend the presentation via Webex on February 1, 2012 at 6pm.

I have the following comments and questions.

Thank you.

Cell Phone: 602-826-0735

RE: Z-41-20-3: concerning the presentation, discussion and possible recommendation regarding a request to rezone 3.19
acres located approximately 400 feet west of the northwest corner of 54th Street and Shea Boulevard from C-O
(Approved PAD-2 SP) (Commercial Office, Approved Planned Area Development, Special Permit) and PAD-2 SP (Approved
PAD-2 SP) (Planned Area Development, Approved Planned Area Development, Special Permit) to PUD (Planned Unit
Development) to allow a hospital and other commercial uses

I would like to submit 2 comments with questions to the applicant:

1. Shea Blvd. in this area is busy during the day with vehicular traffic. It is extremely busy during rush hour especially
afternoon west bound traffic from Scottsdale. Traffic slows to a halt in this area.

The proposed health center will face difficulties both for entering vehicles traveling westbound that will require a left
turn into the facility and exiting traffic in both directions on to Shea Blvd. This is a setup for accidents especially by sick
or stressed people attending the center for medical care.

If traffic is affected in either direction, vehicles could circumvent bottlenecks, South, through the Town of Paradise
Valley. This will have a major affect on currently low traffic, residential streets.

QUESTION: Has a traffic study been performed?

2. The narrative speaks to extremely rare instances of emergency ambulance presence, mainly transport from the
facility. Yet the graphic on the cover of the narrative shows a red neon EMERGENCY sign. Th at is either a mistake or the
narrative misstates or understates the use of emergency services. The sign is confusing to the public and a
misrepresentation of services or the narrative is wrong.

QUESTION:

Page 338
 Will there be an Emergency area staffed by appropriate professionals?
 Is this appropriate for a freestanding, non-hospital with the traffic difficulties described in 1. (above)?

RE: Rezoning Case: HonorHealth Shea PUD is Z-41-20-3

Dear Committee members,

We are residents of La Camarilla. Angela is a professor at Arizona State University and Marcus is a
dentist in private practice. We are writing to express our strong disapproval of the proposal by
HonorHealth to rezone the 3.19 acre property located approximately 400 feet west of the northwest
corner of 54th Street and Shea Boulevard. Rezoning this property to allow the construction of a 24/7
medical center will destroy the residential character of the area.

The medical center proposed by HonorHealth will operate 24/7 and have ambulance services. As
property owners directly north of the property at issue we are deeply concerned about the increased
noise and light pollution. Having a medical facility operating 24/7 with ambulance service will
dramatically increase the traffic, noise pollution, and light pollution that the residents adjacent to the
property will experience. While HonorHealth contends that the ambulance will only operate during
specified hours, this statement is based on HonorHealth’s proposed business model. Once the
property is rezoned HonorHealth will be free to have ambulances utilize the facility 24/7. The PUD
proposed by HonorHealth does not prohibit the use of ambulance lights and sirens, it merely states
that lights and sirens will not be used for non-emergency patients.

Having a 24/7 medical facility at this location will have the additional impact of increasing traffic and
lowering home values. HonorHealth has argued that placing a medical center at this location will
benefit the broader community by providing additional medical resources. Yet HonorHealth currently
has an urgent care facility near the intersection of E. Shea Boulevard and N. Tatum Boulevard. This
urgent care facility is less than one mile from the property at issue in this rezoning application. An
overwhelming number of community residents oppose this rezoning effort as we have adequate
medical resources in the neighborhood.

It is our great hope that the Planning Committee will take seriously the concerns of the residents who
live in the areas surrounding the property at issue in this rezoning application. There is plenty of
commercial property in the area that can accommodate a 24/7 medical center without drastically
changing the residential character of our neighborhood.

Sincerely,

/s/

Subject: Honor Health Urgent care ER PV villages

David,

The Mountainside Fitness at PV villages replacing La Camarena was wrong. This proposed development is worse. Stop
this rezoning. This area of Phoenix does not need to be “developed” and you know that.

Beyond the noise in a residentially zoned area I have the following concerns.

As a board certified pediatric intensive care physician I find freestanding ERs to be ethically deplorable. In my 5 years
time in Dallas where such free standing ERs are a common scourge on the surrounding north Texas cities, I have seen
first hand the horror they create when parents and EMS bring serious and often critically ill pediatric patients to
unprepared physicians or worse independent practice APPs without physician backup. The providers staffing these ERs
often have little or no meaningful hospital backup, minimal true emergency training, minimal emergency trained staff
nor staff experience, and minimal tangible emergency resources. This model delays care on critical timelines often with
the addition of missed and incorrect diagnosis’ and out of date interventions. Emergencies can and should be taken to
emergency rooms in hospitals staffed with surgical and specialty medical services. This project has nothing to do with
access to care and everything to do with greed. Do the right thing and stop it.

My wife Candace Engelhardt MD, a Pediatrician of the same opinion, happily give our time at the upcoming meeting on
this topic to Dr Neal R Rockowitz MD.

Thank you for your time,

Kevin Engelhardt MD

Subject: Rezoning Case: HonorHealth Shea PUD is Z-41-20-3”

Dear PV Planning Committee,
(Please replace this email for my earlier one I sent. I accidentally hit the sent button too early. Thank you!)

We moved into our Orange Tree Estates neighborhood north of Shea in May 1987 because it was
a “Quiet” & beautiful neighborhood. We enjoyed years playing tennis at La Camarilla as a
“quiet” family neighborhood low profile business that enhanced the value of our neighborhood.

Rob is a litigator attorney & I am a former Risk Manager for a Bank. We had many opportunities to
move elsewhere but love the acre lots, space & quiet neighborhood for 34 years, but when you
allowed Mountainside fitness to build their tall, ugly egregious building I CRINGE in disgust
everytime we turn on 54th Street!
Most of our friends & family have commented, how did the city allow such a building in your
neighborhood? So if our friends say this to us, what do you think a potential buyer is thinking?

When anyone decides to purchase a home we don’t look for a busy place to buy, we look for a
quiet family neighborhood. And when banks or real estate appraisers look at a neighborhood with
too much commercial businesses then that neighborhood is less desirable and their values go
down & interest rates go up.

When you allowed Mountainside Fitness to build their eyesore in our neighborhood you helped
destroy the visual appeal of our quiet beautiful neighborhood. The signage is disgusting and the
building is like a Walmart.

Why would you want to destroy our neighborhood AGAIN with excessive traffic & noise
by allowing a commercial entity like Honor Health to back up to our neighbors back yards?

When you allow this type of commercial activity (more traffic, exhaust, noise, lights, toxic medical
waste & sirens...Pollution) like the Honor Health & Mountainside Fitness types of buildings it’s an
horrible intrusion to our quiet family neighborhood and you destroy our Property values &
potential future sales.

There is plenty of open Commercial VACANT space just West a couple blocks near Tatum.

PLEASE protect our quiet Neighborhood and make them move to a Commercial pad as there is
plenty available, and there is no reason to Rezone our neighborhood!

Also, please give Dr. Neal Rockowitz time to speak on our behalf.

Thank you very much for your valuable time and serious consideration.

Subject: rezoning case: HonorHealthShea PUD is Z-41-20-3

Mr. Simmons,

I am contacting you in reference to the proposed rezoning of the land adjacent to
Mountainside Fitness. As a homeowner for the past 28 years, it NEVER entered my mind that
the tranquil neighborhood I love, would be substantially diminished and denigrated by having
the peace and quiet destroyed by the construction of a 24/7 emergency medical facility.

The thought of sirens throughout the day and night, and the added congestion and traffic
that already makes Shea Blvd a nightmare, is hard
to comprehend. Since there is already high quality care delivered at Mayo and the Honor Health
Facility at 90th and Shea, both only 10 minutes away,
our residential community is NOT looking for any other conveniences closer to home.

It is wildly unreasonable for anyone to frame this rezoning project as a much needed
addition to OUR neighborhood. Therefore, please inform the individuals trying to rezone not
insult the collective intelligence of our community by stating in the Honorhealth flyer that this
facility will be offering us CONVENIENCE. Mayo and HonorHealth, 10 minutes away, is all
the convenience we are seeking.

Thanking you in advance of the meeting,

We as long time residents are opposed to the Honor Health Rezoning proposal. It should be denied on the

Mountainside Fitness was allowed to violate existing Phoenix City Zoning Codes. Because a
mistake was made. The City of Phoenix does not need to continue to violate or even change existing
zoning law.

Subject: Rezoning Case: HonorHealth Shea PUD Z-41-20-3

Mr. Simmons,

As residents of La Camarilla Estates, we vehemently oppose the above rezoning. Our subdivision is
adjacent to the property being considered to be rezoned for the Honor Health development of a 24/7
urgent care/emergency room. This has been a strictly residential area since we moved here in 1985
and the proposed commercial business would significantly diminish the quality of life in this
residential area.

The existence of such a development is just not compatible with a residential neighborhood and
would be detrimental to the area. It would create increased traffic, noise, a twenty four hour
business, twenty four hour signs and lighting glaring directly into our subdivision, and, worst of all
the sound of ambulance sirens at all hours. Such an incongruous change would also cause a
significant drop in real estate values.

We strongly support the opposition expressed in previous letters, for the many reasons articulated in
them. Please deny the request for rezoning.

We are registered to attend the meeting under James Rayburn and will not be
speaking. We would like to donate our speaking minutes to Dr. Neal Rockowitz.

To Whom it May Concern,
When you purchase a home, and picture living there with your family, many things are
considered. We chose a residential neighborhood with retail areas being developed. This was
a purposeful decision, and we have invested 28 years supporting our neighborhood small and
large businesses, schools, and community. Honor Health should not be the deciding
factor that changes the atmosphere of OUR residential neighborhood that we all chose to
live in!
The land where Honor Health wants to build their facility was NEVER intended for their
purpose—thus the present zoning! Their proposal that a change in zoning to clear the path for
their build will be a “bonus” to our area, is laughable! I don’t ever remember a time I hoped
for a devaluation of our property, even more excessive traffic, greater noise, extreme
lighting, and 24/7 activity! No residential neighborhood would want this. In addition we all
currently live ten minutes away from two existing facilities that provide the same medical
needs.
I assume Honor Health is capable of finding another piece of land which does not
require rezoning that will be perfect for their needs and welcomed by the surrounding area.
Life has changed enough this last year for all of us. We are all looking to get back to the
“usual.” Honor Health is not promoting anything we want. Honor Health is creating chaos,

Page 348
anxiety, and anger. And attempting to impose something on people who made choices long
before they decided to interfere in our lives!
They need to: STOP
Think about their actions and assumptions
Observe the reactions of the people being affected
Proceed with NEW understanding and insight

THIS IS THE WRONG PLACE FOR THEIR FACILITY

Please, all committee members, vote NO for the rezoning of this land.

Subject: Fwd: Letter to Phoenix Planning Committee

Importance: High

Dear Mr. Simmons and Councilwoman Stark,

It is my understanding that the Phoenix Planning Commission is meeting this evening. I am
writing today about a zoning change that will adversely impact my neighborhood.

The Honor Health Outpatient Medical Center (an emergency medical facility) is requesting a
rezoning permit for the empty lot to the west of the Mountainside Fitness (a new eyesore) on
Shea Boulevard and 54th Street. While a landlocked neighborhood surrounded by other
neighborhoods is truly safe from development, the homeowners directly behind the former La
Camarilla, and those nearby, had a realistic expectation due to stringent zoning, that their
neighborhood would be protected from development that would negatively impact their quality of
life and their homes’ values.

La Camarilla Tennis and Racquet Club only existed because of special PAD-2 residential
zoning specific to that business. The developer who built La Camarilla Estates’ homes also
owned and built the tennis club. The owner of the parcel of land in question is Tom Hatten, the
CEO and owner of Mountainside Fitness. I am sure he paid several million dollars to purchase
La Camarilla and expended several more millions to create the Mountainside Fitness in its
place. This facility is basically a warehouse in situated on property that was originally zoned for
a racket club that complimented and was an asset to the neighborhood. I have no doubt that Mr.
Hatten is eager to sell his remaining parcel to the highest bidder with as little regard that he
showed the homes that abut Mountainside Fitness, just so he can recoup some of the invest he
has made in the former La Camarilla club.

By Honor Health’s own admission, this medical center will serve as an emergency room. This
means neighbors can expect additional traffic and noise pollution from sirens. The Mountainside
Fitness building is basically the “camel’s nose under the tent.” With the addition of the Honor
Health Medical Center, the whole camel will be inside the tent. While there may not be a
discussion now, I can envision adding a traffic signal to the intersection of 54th St. and Shea
due to the increase in traffic.

Interestingly, Honor Health operates an office in a building to the west of this parcel. Has Honor
Health considered locating its emergency medical center in that building? Currently there are at
least three vacant spaces in the Paradise Village shopping Center on the northeast corner of
Shea and Tatum. Can none of these spaces (the former Bed Bath and Beyond, the former
Nationwide Eyeglasses that abutted the former Albertson’s supermarket) be repurposed
for Honor Health’s Medical Center? There is also a large vacant parcel just west of Tatum on
Shea that used to be the site of a suite of medical buildings. Did Honor Health consider that
location?

Page 350
Our community has already been ignored by the Planning Committee and the City Council once
when it approved a big box gym in our neighborhood. I urge you not to make a rezoning mistake
with the Honor Health Emergency Medical Center.

Additionally, I request that my minutes for addressing the Planning Committee be donated to Dr.
Neal Rockowitz.

Thank you,

Subject: Rezoning 54th/Shea parcel

Dear Mr. Simmons:

I wholeheartedly concur with Dr. Engelhardt. Rezoning the parcel to allow for the development of a 24/7 urgent
care/emergency room is entirely unacceptable on so many levels in a residential community and MUST be staunchly
opposed. It will destroy the character and livability of our neighborhood and community. There are undoubtedly many
other options HonorHealth can pursue on land already appropriately zoned.

I also agree that HonorHealth is looking to capitalize on the ability to up-charge for urgent care services by
masquerading as a full-fledged Emergency Room thereby putting patients at risk in the name of maximizing profits. That
is the business model HonorHealth is pursuing. It is truly deplorable and has no place in our community. When
confronted by this obvious fact, HonorHealth had no satisfactory response. Having a critically ill patient show up at this
facility only to be “stabilized” while awaiting transfer to an actual hospital will unnecessarily delay needed care that
could have been instituted right away had they traveled a few miles down the road to HonorHealth Scottsdale Shea or
Mayo Clinic Hospital in the first place. This potential for patient harm far outweighs any “convenience” provided by a
freestanding ER in our backyards.

Subject: Rezoning Case: HonorHealth Shea PUD Z-41-20-3

Dear Ms Stark,

We oppose the rezoning of our residential neighborhood to one that would allow for the building of an emergency urgent
care facility on Shea Blvd across the street from North Promontory.

A commercial facility in our residential neighborhood would have a negative impact and shows lack of wisdom when
considering the following:

* Safety. There is enough traffic to contend with as it is on Shea Blvd, and noise, and we don’t want to see this situation
worsened by the presence of ambulances/emergency vehicles, sirens, and 24/7 activity. Access onto Shea is already
encumbered by drivers in and out of Mountainside Fitness, a rather cold and austere architectural monster, ie, ugly, that
many of us had hoped would have been at least as lovely as the tennis and exercise club it replaced (it didn’t turn out that
way) and pulling out on Shea will only get worse and more dangerous with the additional traffic an ambulance/urgent care
facility will cause, no matter how attractive the owners promise to make the building.

* Quality Environment. This additional traffic activity will erode the quality of the neighborhood for the many people who
enjoy living here. Many people walk and stroll the adjacent sidewalks and walkways to go to the store, to walk their pets, to
jog or exercise, and to ride their bikes. We bought a house in North Promontory for its excellent location to schools and stores
and the quality neighborhood it gave us. It has proven to be all we had hoped for and we would like to retain that value for us
and for those who live here after us. This rezoning effort to commercial will negatively affect the value of our house.

* Need. We have never felt the need for an urgent care facility to enhance our neighborhood. That said, there is already an
urgent care facility nearer the Tatum and Shea intersection. This proposal for a second facility seems redundant.

* Stewardship of land. It makes no sense to develop this area into a commercial setting when there are many other
properties with better advantages for this kind of business. The Paradise Valley Mall is easily accessed, centrally located and
probably has space available for upgrading to the needs of an urgent care facility for less than building a new structure. Why
destroy something good in a neighborhood, its safety and ambience, when other, better suited options for an emergency care
setting are available?

It takes time to build good, safe neighborhoods. They take care to maintain.

This letter is our vote to retain our neighborhood and oppose the addition of a commercial facility within it.

Thank you.

SAVE OUR NEIGHBORHOOD PETITION

We, the undersigned residents of La Camarilla Estates and North Phoenix Promontory,
along with all of the surrounding neighborhoods are strongly opposed to Rezoning
Case No. Z-41-20-3, the HonorHealth Medical Center with 24/7 Urgent Care and
Emergency Room Operations.

The current PAD zoning at this location, in accordance with City Municipal Code Sec
635, was designed to “provide a desirable and stable environment in harmony with that
of the surrounding area.” Contrary to this, the planned development is utterly out of
harmony with the character of the original zoning. Rezoning of a residential parcel for
a 24/7 Emergency Room could not be a more jarring replacement of the idyllic tennis
club that was previously zoned for this land.

Additionally, this rezoning proposal does not meet the City’s usage requirements for
this area. PUD Sec 671 states: “Appropriate limitations will be placed on the character
and intensity of permitted uses to promote neighborhood compatibility.” 24/7 Urgent
Care and Emergency Room operations, increased ambulance service, increased
traffic, associated late-night noises and lighting, are simply incompatible with the
character of a residential neighborhood.

This rezoning is particularly unnecessary given the existence of an obvious
compromise: Honor Health should simply be encouraged to find a nearby property that
is already correctly zoned. As more and more big-box chain stores inevitably close,
there will be multiple commercial properties available in the vicinity, either now or in the
near future. This would allow HonorHealth to provide its services while also preserving
the character of our neighborhood. We respectfully request that this rezoning case be
categorically denied.

Respectfully signed,

Subject: Rezoning Case: HonorHealth Shea PUD is Z-41-20-3

Hello Mr. Simmons,

I am requesting to speak at the meeting on February 1, 2021 and would like to donate my minutes to Neal Rockowitz.

I and my husband, Craig Lamp, are opposed to the rezoning of the property on Shea for the proposed HonorHealth
facility. We feel that it would diminish the value of the surrounding neighborhoods. The zoning of the property was not
meant for that - it would represent poor planning and aesthetically would not add anything to the area except noise and
increased traffic right where the road narrows from three to two lanes.

There are other medical facilities nearby, including a full Honor hospital approximately 4.5 miles east and an honor
urgent care approximately 0.5 miles west on Shea near Tatum. Is a standalone ER a good idea? What happens when a
patient needs emergency surgery or another intervention? There is now wasted transport time to a larger facility and
the chance that care workers at the standalone facility will not be ready and/or qualified to treat a serious emergency.
They will be treating patients of all ages.

Thank you,
Leslie Speedie and Craig Lamp

I am writing to you to give my minutes to speak to Neal Rockowitz.
I am attending the meeting virtually but want to give Neal my minutes. I also want to indicate that my husband and i do
not want Honor Health to build on that land that is west of Mountainside Fitness for many reasons. We live in La
CAMARILLA estates and feel that Mountainside Fitness has already violated many regulations that were put in place and
we have so many ongoing issues with them that we do not trust anyone else to adhere to certain laws in that location.

Subject: Letter Opposed to Rezoning Case Z-41-20

Dear Paradise Valley Village Planning Committee Members:

I am writing to request your support in denying Honor Health’s Medical Center rezoning request, Case Z-41-20, located near 54 th St
and Shea Blvd.

I am a Phoenix resident and live in the North Phoenix Promontory subdivision which borders Shea Blvd starting at 54 th St.

As you are aware, the proposed rezoning area is currently zoned PAD-2 SP, especially designed by the City of Phoenix to be a
residential compatible area. Section 635 of the Phoenix Municipal Code for PAD zoning says: “…developments which will provide a
desirable and stable environment in harmony with that of the surrounding area”.

Honor Health’s request will not provide neighborhood harmony or compatibility in the service and hours of operation it plans on
providing and in my opinion, it does not meet the requirements for PUD rezoning. Phoenix Municipal Code Section 671 for PUD
states: “Use: Appropriate limitations will be placed on the character and intensity of permitted uses to promote neighborhood
compatibility.” An Urgent Care and Emergency Room Medical Center with 24/7 operations should not qualify under the PUD city
zoning code due to its lack of “neighborhood compatibility”. 24/7 operations with increased traffic, round the clock business
operations with associated noises, ambulance and otherwise, certainly do not qualify under character or intensity concerning
neighborhood compatibility.

I am not only concerned about Honor Health’s operations in the near future, but what about 5-10 years down the road? To borrow
from the movie Field of Dreams – “if you build it, they will come.” Honor Health promotes their business model to provide patients
with more expeditious service and cost savings by having the opportunity to first use their 24/7 Urgent Care before needing to use
Emergency Room services. As the word gets out and hospitals get overwhelmed with even longer ER wait times, more and more
people will make the drive, even a longer drive, to get faster and less expensive care at the newly proposed Honor Health site. In
the long term this proposed rezoning request will equate to more 24/7 traffic and more people visiting the HH Med Center at all
hours – all leading to more round the clock traffic and surrounding area noise. Honor Health claims there will be very little
ambulance traffic, but in the small print they acknowledge they cannot guarantee the amount. Even Honor Health’s Community
Organizer, Tom Bilsten, said at a meeting in Dec 2020 that if his child was to get sick in the middle of the night, he would prefer the
opportunity to use a 24/7 medical center like this one versus having to take his child to a hospital emergency room . That is exactly
my point! Over time its popularity will only increase drawing more and more customers and all the associated round the clock
activities and noises.

With the current economy and wave of the future there are many commercially zoned areas that are or will become available.
Honor Health needs to find an already commercially zoned area to build their medical center, not one surrounded by residential
neighborhoods - this proposed area is not the appropriate location for a 24/7 medical business.

I am not against this portion of land being developed. I am; however, opposed to any 24/7 operation for the reasons explained
above. This is not the appropriate location for this medical center business with round the clock operations. At various meetings
some of us asked the Honor Health representatives if they would be willing to compromise by eliminating the ER, thus the 24/7
operation – Honor Health refused – a stark indicator of their true concerns for the surrounding residents.

Page 366
Honor Health promotes a viable business model that will likely turn out to be very successful. However, it should be located in an
already commercially zoned area that will still aptly serve its customers. This area of land they would like to rezone needs to be
developed without 24/7 operations and with a business or set-up that is compatible, harmonious and provides a stable environment
with the surrounding residential neighborhoods - the City’s intent of the current PAD- 2 zoning. Honor Health’s 24/7 Medical Center
proposal certainly does not meet these requirements. Finally, Honor Health’s stated operations do not meet PUD zoning
qualifications in the “character and intensity” needed to promote neighborhood compatibility.

I ask that you vote to deny this rezoning request.

Respectfully,

William H Christian Jr

Dear Councilwoman Stark -

I am writing as a resident, and in my capacity as President of the North Phoenix Promontory Homeowners Association, to
oppose Phoenix Rezoning Case Z-41-20, and respectfully request that you join in this opposition.

This request pertains to the proposed Honor Health Medical Center on Shea, east of 56th Street, requiring a rezoning
from residential to commercial. We feel strongly that this rezoning for a 24/7 Urgent Care and Emergency Room operation
is not compatible with our neighborhood. This neighborhood was severely impacted by the construction of the huge
Mountainside Fitness facility which replaced La Camarilla; the construction of this Medical Center will cause even greater
permanent irreparable harm.

Instead of granting this unnecessary re-zoning request to construct a 24/7 Emergency Room in a residential area, I
believe it would be far more prudent for Honor Health to utilize the now largely vacant shopping center at the NE corner of
Tatum and Shea which already has the requisite zoning. Adding more commercial zoning to a residential area when so
much commercial space is currently vacant is not in the best interests of our community.

Thank you in advance for your support.

Hi David,

I received a call from Joan Smith in opposition to the Honor Health PUD. She let me know she is opposed because of the
proximity to the residential neighborhood, and there are other nearby vacant properties that she feels would be more

Operations

Dear Council District 3 PCC,

In 1972, my family and I moved to 5401 E. Cortez, Scottsdale, 85254. We now live at:
5403 E. Cannon Drive, Paradise Valley, 85253. I have watched this area grow literally. When
we first moved here, we had to grocery shop at Bayless and during the summers, we would take
a styrofoam cooler with us in order to bring our groceries home. Many things have changed but one thing that has not
changed is that this area has grown and remained a residential community. We have watched people continue to invest
in their residential properties. Our area is beautiful and very family conscience.
As a community, I don't really remember fighting the city on a lot of the growth that has taken place.
I even remember when Smitty's originally came in and wanted to build on the corner of Tatum and Shea.
The company met with us and together we planned to satisfy both sides. When La Camarilla Racquet Club
Tennis Courts [tennismaps.com] wanted to come into our neighborhood. They set up meetings at the
community's homes and took the time to answer every question of everyone in the area. They took notes of our
concerns. The went back to the drawing board and represented everything until the community was satisfied. Many
signed up for membership even before they broke ground. They sought, they worked for and they earned
our support.
Now Honor Health wants to come into our neighborhood, wants to change the zoning, desires to create more
traffic on Shea and to force our acceptance of a facility that we truly do NOT want in our neighborhood! In addition, we
feel strongly about this because there are so many properties open to them that are already zoned for their
facility. Building on the NE corner of Tatum and Shea would be a welcome use of the land available but they are not
willing to compromise or go where our neighborhood would gladly accept them.

Page 371
I don't know how in good conscience your council can support this decision. We were brought up to
believe that our elected officials are elected to represent our citizenship and to support those who have
elected you to office. May I suggest that you work a little bit harder and think a little more deeply i nto finding a solution
to this problem. Have any of you verified any of the people that were brought before your council by Honor Health as
examples in favor of this zoning change? Some of our coordinators checked where
these people reside. They are not people who reside adjacent to this property. Some live as far as eight miles
away. Those of us who do live close to this property are begging you to re-examine your decision.
Take the time to evaluate the alternative properties available to Honor Health. You have a solution right in front of you
that would be welcomed by our community. Please show so empathy - think about how you
might feel with this in your backyard. We want to know and to see the democratic process working.
We are praying that you will do the job that we elected you to do....represent us !
Thank you for taking the time to read how I feel; how our community feels and please seek a decision against this
rezoning and a solution that would be very advantageous to us all.
Thank you,
Helene and Larry Spero

Subject: Please reject Rezoning case #Z-41-20 (near 54th and Shea from HonorHealth)

I am writing today to ask you to PLEASE reject the rezoning application from
HonorHealth (Case #Z-41-20).

I live in the LaCamarilla Estates near 54th Street and Shea (behind MountainSide Fitness and the
proposed HonorHealth 24/7 urgent/emergent care facility).

I have numerous concerns outlined below in the form of questions along with additional
commentary. Please think about how you would honestly respond to these questions as though you
lived in our community to fully appreciate the impact to us.

Reason/Description Questions to ask yourself if you lived in our community
24/7 business Would you want a 24/7 business behind your house? This is a business going
into a Residential neighborhood. You bought a home with the expectation of
quiet when it gets dark and to keep the views you love. It is not as if this
building was already there and we chose to move in next to it.
HonorHealth wants the facility open 24/7 which is when they can charge a lot
more for each and every diagnosis.
Property values What impact does this have on your property value? It decreases the values
of the properties surrounding a 24/7 business. Who is going to pay for this
decrease in your property value – Is it the City of Phoenix? Is it the
Committee? Is it the Community? Or is it HonorHealth? It also damages your
quality of life….think 24/7 urgent care vs. tennis courts.
Increase in traffic The traffic of 85 patients per day – won’t this continue to increase over time
creating more noise and traffic pollution? How will the customers exit if they
want to go east on Shea--cross over MountainSide Fitness? It is very difficult
to go east on Shea from this location. If they can't go left, they will feed into
the neighborhood on 54th street. Traffic lights would cause further
congestion on Shea. There is already increased number of accidents on 54th
and Shea. Is this what you want for your family and loved ones if you lived
here?
Increase in noise The proposal cannot guarantee no sirens anytime during the day or night for
pollution those being transported to the hospital. The noise level comes from the
building, patients and traffic. Regarding the increase in noise level mentioned
in the HonorHealth presentation, it would equate to the noise level of a
blender. This is not a joke and is not as HonorHealth presents it as simple as
just spinning up a blender to make a margarita. This is misleading since
people turn off their blenders when done. Would you willingly subject yourself
to listening to your blender 24/7? Listening to a blender for that long drastically
increases the stress level of those who are subjected to it. I’m sure you would
agree this noise pollution is unacceptable.

Page 374
Increased crime Do you think there might be increased crime with the new business going
in? Will people be looking for drugs? HonorHealth can have security, but the
point is that more individuals will come thinking there are drugs to be had
bringing them closer to our neighborhood. They can jump the walls and head
into the community.
Increased lights 24/7 In HonorHealth's presentation, they indicated that there were previously tall
lights with the tennis courts and made the assumption that these lights were
far worse than what they are proposing. This is very misleading when those
lights which were turned off at night. Their lights would be on 24/7 and
bleeding into our homes.
Height of Building Would you like the view from your home lost? The revised proposed height
has not substantially changed. The height of most of the building (not the
tallest entry point) is only a foot different. It is misleading to state that the new
building is several feet lower than the building next to it. Plus the ground has
already been raised from the previous development. Instead of having a view
of the mountains, you will now have yet another huge building.
Location Why does it need to be located here in a residential neighborhood? There are
so many locations already zoned for commercial that are available with ample
lighting, parking, proper traffic controls, room for expansion, etc. Certainly
more locations than what was presented. For those individuals who are “for”
this building, if the facility was open after hours, but still equi-distant from your
home, wouldn’t that be acceptable? This would then still provide an avenue
of revenue for HonorHealth as well as the City.
Change Since all of us is already going through so much with covid, and community,
state, country affairs, how much more change do we need to endure? What
does it take to protect our home values from big corporations coming in and
destroying our neighborhoods? HonorHealth says we need to accept change
and just accept that it is going to be loud (as Ms. Riddell puts it). This project
causes more traffic and noise pollution, impacts our property values, and so
on. Enough is enough.

I am confident if you responded to the above questions authentically as though you lived in the
neighborhood, you would not approve this rezoning case.

HonorHealth has several other location options available to them--they and the City can still make
money off their proposal -- just not at this location.

We have over 275 homeowners in the neighborhood who are against this facility being in our
backyard. I pray you will be objective and not ignore the people whom these decisions directly
impact.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Nancy Ribble

Subject: Save Our Neighborhood

Dear Councilwoman Stark,

I write this message as a resident of La Camarilla Estates and North Phoenix Promontory, and along with all of the
surrounding neighborhood residents, are strongly opposed to Rezoning Case No. Z-41-20-3, the HonorHealth Medical
Center with 24/7 Urgent Care and Emergency Room Operations.

The current PAD zoning at this location, in accordance with City Municipal Code Sec 635, was designed to “provide a
desirable and stable environment in harmony with that of the surrounding area.” Contrary to this, the planned
development is utterly out of harmony with the character of the original zoning. Rezoning of a residential parcel for a
24/7 Emergency Room could not be a more jarring replacement of the idyllic tennis club that was previously zoned for
this land.

Additionally, this rezoning proposal does not meet the City’s usage requirements for this area. PUD Sec 671
states: “Appropriate limitations will be placed on the character and intensity of permitted uses to promote
neighborhood compatibility.” 24/7 Urgent Care and Emergency Room operations, increased ambulance service,
increased traffic, associated late-night noises and lighting, are simply incompatible with the character of a residential
neighborhood.

This rezoning is particularly unnecessary given the existence of an obvious compromise: Honor Health should simply be
encouraged to find a nearby property that is already correctly zoned. As more and more big-box chain stores inevitably
close, there will be multiple commercial properties available in the vicinity, either now or in the near future. This would
allow HonorHealth to provide its services while also preserving the character of our neighborhood. We respectfully
request that this rezoning case be categorically denied.

Respectfully signed,

Dear Councilwoman Stark,

I live the in Promontory subdivision across Shea Blvd from the proposed HonorHealth 24/7 Emergency Room Site. I am
completely opposed to this rezoning effort and ask you to stop this. The City of Phoenix already dropped the ball by
allowing the monstrosity that is Mountainside Fitness to slide under the radar and violate several zoning ordinances,
such as height and signage. Please do not compound this mistake by allowing this proposed rezoning to happen.

I have lived in my house for 26 years and this rezoning, if allowed to happen, will completely disrupt our whole area,

put a 24/7 emergency room right across the street from your house? I suspect you would not appreciate it. I ask you to
put yourself in our shoes. We have all invested in our community and do not want it blasted apart like this. The noise
and traffic increase will be impossible.

The northeast corner of Tatum and Shea offers several sites that are already zoned commercial and could easily
accommodate a facility like this. In fact, HonorHealth is now part owner of the UrgentCare facility on that corner.

Please respect our neighborhoods and STOP THIS REZONING EFFORT!

Subject: Rezoning, La Camarilla

As all of you may be aware, Honor Health is requesting that the City of Phoenix rezone a parcel of land on Shea Blvd. and
52nd Street from PAD 2 to C‐O in order to build a 24 hour 7 day a week emergency room. I sat in the recent meeting
with the zoning commission which approved the zoning change. Honor Health's attorney expressed the need in the area
for this new type of medical facility, but did NOT MENTION why it had to be on that parcel!!! There are properly zoned
empty shopping centers at Tatum and Shea, as well as around PV mall. So what's the fascination with this property that
backs up to a residential neighborhood? I was always told to "follow the money". There appears to be two
organizations that will profit greatly from locating this facility here.
Mountainside Fitness which owns the land in question and the Johnson Companies who owns the multistory office
property already zoned C‐O immediately to the west of this parcel. Are they the ones supporting and promoting this??
Honer Health can afford to go anywhere. My question to all of you and to Honor Health is when have you seen a
medical facility that does not grow over time? I foresee the future facility stretching from 54th Street to the wash on
the west with both of the above organizations selling to Honor Health. What then, a multistory surgical center, cancer
treatment center, enhanced ER with not only ambulances but maybe helicopters?? I am a property owner on 52nd
Street (and part of La Camarilla) which will be impacted by the reduced property values caused by adding this facility not
to mention the increased traffic and stop lights on a already gridlocked Shea Blvd..

HonorHealth Medical Center with 24/7 Urgent Care and Emergency Room Operations

To Whom It May Concern,

I have previously written to you begging you not to approve this rezoning. My letter was extensive and it included
numerous reasons why your vote should be no. Today, I was driving on Shea. I came across a piece of land on Shea,
across the street from Fry's on the north side of the street. It is adjacent to where the new traffic light was installed on
Shea just west of Tatum. The land is just west of the shopping center where Trader Joe's is located. There is a separate
building directly to the west of this piece of property. This would be a perfect place for HonorHealth to build their
Emergency Room.
While I am not in commercial real estate, I would think that this land is worth Honor Health to take a look and see if
it meets their demands: It already has the zoning. It already has the traffic light. In addition, they can still capitalize
on the fact that they could build a standalone building in a "high income and highly insured" areas. If affiliated
with a hospital (HonorHealth), the facility can upcharge all services. If they are 24/7, they can upcharge even
more. While this particular site is not directly across the street from PV nor does it have the zip code
of 85253. (The PV zip code of 85253 is ranked #1 in AZ for MEDIAN INCOME and #2 for INCOME
GROWTH.) This property that I am talking about is not across the street, BUT it is diagonally across from
PV. (HonorHealth can not buy in the zip code in PV because PV does not permit development like this) So,
the next best thing is to open the facility across the street in PHX or one that is diagonally across still in PHX.
HonorHealth is literally unconcerned about the downside for our neighborhood. It really shows because of all
the millions of empty commercial square footage nearby at Tatum/Shea and Tatum/Cactus already zoned
properly."
Please consider how your voters feel. With all this property available to them, they
must get rezoning of a piece of property right in the middle of an upscale neighborhood where
the citizens really care about their homes. Please, please do your jobs. Represent your
voters and protect our properties.

Thank you.

Subject: Honor Health ER Proposal at 54th St and Shea
Importance: High

Good Afternoon Council Member Stark,
I am writing to you to let you know that I am very much opposed to the Honor Health ER location to be put in at Shea
and 54th Street. I am sure you have heard from many of my neighbors with similar feelings. It makes no sense that the
council would consider changing the zoning of this property when there are so many vacant spaces within a half mile or
so of this location that already have the proper zoning. Why would the council disrupt a neighborhood and cause so
much more traffic on Shea when it is not necessary. I am also sure you have seen the literature that medicare did on
facilities like this that shows that only reason for them setting these up is so they can charge more for the visits. Seeing
as how the income level of this area is higher than most, this area is being targeted. If they say we need one in the area,
then just put it where it already has the proper zoning. Why would the city council want to see all these buildings sitting
vacant just to build a new one.

I was very impressed that you made known that you would vote “NO” for the dispensary that was to go in at Tatum and
Shea, so they have decided to not continue to fight for that spot. I am asking you to make an equally wise decision and
vote “NO” for Honor Health to put an Emergency Room in the middle of a neighborhood. This whole project is being
driven by the developer, which very well may be the guy that owns Mountainside Fitness. I can’t imagine that Honor
Health feels like this is the only location that can serve their needs.

I appreciate your time in reading this email and beg you to please make the right decision and say “NO” to this project.
Sincerely,
Judy Shano

Subject: Honor Health Shea Rezoning ‐ Z‐41‐20‐3

Council members Debra Stark and Jim Waring,
I have email you both before about the efforts of Honor Health to rezone a property on Shea Blvd between Tatum and
56th St for a 24/7 Emergency Room, Urgent Care, etc., but have not receive any reply. I am opposed to the rezoning. I
live within a short walk of this property in Mr. Waring’s district and many of my neighbors’ homes back up to the
property or are directly next to it or just across the street. The area is a neighborhood, not meant for a 24/7 business
with sirens and increased traffic 24 hours a day. Less than a mile to the West at the corner of Shea Blvd and Tatum is
commercial zoning and vacant buildings. Old Albertsons, Bed Bath and Beyond and Staples are all empty now. There is a
Honor Health Urgent Care at the Northeast corner where these empty commercial buildings are located as well. Just
across the street to the East already is an Honor Health Family practice location. Please tell Honor Health if they want to
locate a 24/7 Emergency Room in this area of town, use one or more of the empty buildings there at Tatum and Shea NE
corner so there is less disturbance of a long established neighborhood. Hopefully, then neighbor’s property values won’t
be negatively effected as well.
As Ms Stark was quoted in the March 31 Arizona Republic about the Harvest dispensary rezoning request – “This is the
way it’s supposed to work…neighbors should have a say in what is developed in their area”. Please have Honor Health
withdraw their rezoning request and resubmit it if they choose for the intersection of Tatum and Shea. Honor Health still
gets their 24/7 ER in the area of Phoenix they want closer to their two other operations and they don’t destroy the
peace and quiet and quality of the long time neighborhood and the surrounding residents.

Subject: Proposed HonorHealth Emergency Facility on Shea Blvd.

Dear Councilwoman Stark,

I am writing about the rezoning proposed by HonorHealth for the vacant parcel located to the east of the Mountainside Fitness on Shea
Boulevard. The land/building owners that will benefit from these changes are eager to sell and make a profit without considering this project’s
negative impact on our neighborhood.

The homeowners directly behind the former La Camarilla Tennis Club and those nearby, had a realistic expectation due to stringent zoning that
their neighborhood would be protected from development that would negatively impact their quality of life and their homes’ values.

La Camarilla Tennis and Racquet Club only existed because of special PAD-2 residential zoning specific to that business. Tom Hatten the
President of Mountainside Fitness told representatives of the La Camarilla neighborhood that he was counting on the land being rezoned when
he purchased the tennis club from George Johnson. He needs to recoup his investment in the property. If the City Council approves this
rezoning then its members are telling homeowners across Phoenix that their neighborhoods can also be targeted and are not
immune from intrusive, inappropriate developments in their area.

I listened/watched last month’s city Planning Commission meeting. There were several questions that were left unanswered by HonorHealth’s
attorney Wendy Riddell during the discussion. Additionally, the Committee afforded Ms. Riddell the opportunity to refute comments made by
opponents of the project. However, this was mostly a one-sided presentation, as opponents were not allowed to then counter her second set of
misleading remarks.

Some of Ms. Riddell’s inaccuracies included:

1) The parcel is already zoned commercial and her zoning change is just a "tweak" to allow the ER. The current zoning is Residential/PAD-2

2) The building is only 18 feet high. The proposed building is 26 feet 4 inches high!

3) She implied that the residents in La Camarilla that did not attend her Webex meeting support the project. What
Webex meeting? Many in the community were not aware of HonorHealth’s plans until well after the Paradise Village
Planning Commission met.

4) Ms. Riddell as a representative for HonorHealth portrayed this project as having significant local support. In truth the
eight people that spoke in support of the project live no closer than 1.3 mi away, and as far as 8 mi away. More than 250
residents living close to the site signed a petition in opposition to this plan.

5) The project is designed to make Shea Blvd a more "pedestrian friendly environment" (this is in her written proposal).
No one will equate Shea Boulevard to a pedestrian friendly roadway.

6) Ms. Riddell also noted that sirens “will rarely be used” by the ambulances. What is her definition of “rarely”?

There is already an abundance of vacant retail/commercial space on the northeast corner of Tatum and Shea
Boulevards, with traffic lights on either road leading directly into the center. HonorHealth currently has a FastMed

Page 385
location in this same retail space. It makes no sense to rezone a residential, non‐commercial parcel for more retail and
commercial space, when a plethora of such space exists less than a mile away.

Honor Health has framed this facility in terms of providing community service. It claims that these combined
Urgent Care/Emergency Health centers provide care that one would find at a hospital, at a reduced price for
the consumer. Ms. Riddell cited similar facilities in Texas as the model for HonorHealth’s new endeavor.
However, several articles in newspapers in Texas (see attachments below) have highlighted that the costs to
consumers, even after insurance co-pays are often more than they anticipated.

How will HonorHealth’s fees compare with those of its primary care facilities? Will patients be billed at an
Urgent Care rate or at an Emergency Room rates? Will it depend upon the time of day a doctor treats a
patient? Higher after “normal business hours”? How will HonorHealth communicate its fee structure? It
previously had an urgent care facility at Tatum and Thunderbird. It is now closed.

Has HonorHealth considered launching its new service model in an underserved area of the Valley, not in
proximity to a hospital? It appears that HonorHealth is considering this site due to its location adjacent to the
85253 (and 85254) zip code where ability to pay may not be as great an issue as in other areas of the Valley.
HonorHealth has not provided the residents with any data to support its claim that their facility is most
needed in this location.

Hundreds of families bought their homes in this desirable area because it was zoned for non-commercial/retail
space. On my street of just six houses, four of us purchased our homes more than 20 years ago; we have
made a long-term investment in our neighborhood.

We have signed petitions, written letters and attended planning commission meetings by Zoom when we
learned about them.

During the recent planning commission meeting, Ms. Riddell noted that HonorHealth’s recommendation to help
with the site’s entrance and egress is to add a traffic light at 54th Street. There are already three traffic lights
between 56th Street and Tatum Boulevard. How many homeowners on 54th Street want a traffic light installed
there? A traffic light will increase traffic through a quiet neighborhood.

Honor Health should try its experiment in a new, unestablished development and determine how well their
model works their before inserting itself into a well-established community.

What happens to this facility and the rezoned property if Honor Health finds that this location is not as
profitable as it has prognosticated? You will have negatively altered the neighborhood and it will be
left with an empty building now zoned for a commercial building.

I implore you to vote ‘No” on the approval of HonorHealth’s project.

Thank you for your attention to this matter and to your service to the citizens of Phoenix.

Subject: HonorHealth's request for re‐zoning property at N. 54th St. and E. Shea Blvd.

Dear Council Members,

Today I had to leave my home in Promontory Homes off of Shea and 55th Place to go
to an appointment. I couldn't get over the traffic on Shea. People have been working from home and
not going out except when absolutely necessary for the last year and we have been lulled into
thinking that traffic wasn't that bad. All of a sudden, with a lot of people having received the vaccines,
everyone is out and about. I ran to Target on Sunday and I couldn't find a parking spot for 30 minutes!
Today, on Shea, at eleven o'clock in the morning - not even at a time of heavy traffic, Shea was
consumed with a lot of traffic.

Before voting to grant HonorHealth their rezoning request, please take a look at the traffic
on Shea at various times of the day. Now that everyone has decided to venture out, we all need to
remind ourselves what "normal" traffic on Shea looks like. I realize that you are probably extremely
busy but please consider this request as an assignment or homework needed to make the proper
voting decision. Try to imagine how the traffic will look if HonorHealth builds their emergency room.
I believe that we will have a bumper to bumper, Los Angeles style, looking road filled with traffic.

Of course, traffic is not the homeowners only concern. One must factor in the noise factor.
More traffic = more noise; emergency vehicles siren's = a lot more noise for a residential area; all
things need to be considered. This building will decrease the value of our homes and the quality
of life in our residential community, Once HonorHealth gets their zoning passed, then in the future,
they can do whatever they like with their property. They can make it a trauma center which would
allow helicopters to come and go to this property.

When all is said and done, I think that one of the things that bothers me the most is that
because of our economic situation at this time, HonorHealth has a huge variety of places open to
them that already has the zoning, would gladly welcome new tenants or owners. Why must this
facility be built in our residential neighborhood? As our representative on the city council, please
help us to protect our properties. Please request that HonorHealth grab on of these already
zoned properties that are already equipped with traffic lights for better traffic control and can
absorb the increased noise and traffic flow without disrupting a carefully planned and maintained
neighborhood.

Thank you for doing your job of representing us and hopefully turning down this rezoning
application.
Sincerely,

H.B. Drew

Subject: Rezoning Case No. Z‐41‐20‐3, the HonorHealth Medical Center OPPOSITION

Mayor Gallego and Council Members,

Rezoning Case No. Z-41-20-3, the HonorHealth Medical Center with 24/7 Urgent Care and
Emergency Room Operations.

I would like to express my strong opposition to the Rezoning from Residential single family to an
Emergency Room on the now vacant land next to Mountainside Fitness.

I share this opinion with over 250 of my neighbors and live directly opposite of this proposed new
building. The claim made by Counsel Wendy Riddell that only a few oppose this is not
true. It may be good lawyering but it is false information. The petition already submitted
shows this concern.
Out of respect for your time I will keep this brief and to the point.

1. There is NO NEED for an Emergency Room in the middle of a residential neighborhood with
Honorhealth Shea campus just 3 miles east and an Urgent Care at Tatum and Shea, a short
walk away. There are medical offices everywhere in this area.
2. Our neighborhood does not need more HIGH COST CARE. These facilities that are owned by
hospitals bill for physician services, as well as a FACILITY FEE that hospitals are allowed to
add on to medical visits. This makes care unnecessarily expensive and will also cost our
AHCCCS health system even more when AHCCCS patients visit this hospital-owned facility.
3. There is a massive amount of vacant space in the shopping center at Tatum and Shea, with
adequate parking. Existing traffic flow diverting from Shea will allow for an ER in that center.
Albertson's vacated that space over 2 years ago and it has stood vacant all this time. If there is
an actual need for an Emergency Room/ Urgent Care in our neighborhood, let them use the
commercial space already available.
4. Traffic on Shea is already a nightmare with 3 lanes each way with drivers going at high
speeds. I turn across Shea to go west every morning and it takes a long time for a break in
traffic and a small miracle to get across safely. This road will be more dangerous if an ER is
constructed on this stretch of high speed 6 lane residential roadway. Please consider this point

Page 388
as a critical notification of a problem in the area. If this does get approved, planning MUST
include a traffic light at 54th street and Shea.
5. My property value will go down significantly. That is not fair when the area considered is
Residential and has been forever. The owner of Mountainside Fitness and Honorhealth's
financial interests are being pitted against the financial interests of hundreds of surrounding
families who are not organized with a high priced legal team.
6. Other reasons have been outlined in detail by my neighbors so I will not repeat things I know
they have submitted.

My expectation is that this Rezoning Case will be reviewed and denied as it benefits a very wealthy
hospital system and a single business owner. One hopes that the Residents' best interests in a
Residential area will be protected against Commercial opportunism, by our government. I am hopeful
that officials will hear the residents and not just go along with a special interest. The hearsay is that
this process is merely just a process and rubber stamp for those who are pushing the narrative with
professional assistance and financial backing to do that. This is so disheartening to me. We
desperately need strong leaders!
The notion that there are not enough people concerned and speaking out is false and a
misrepresentation. I am hopeful that the Council Members reviewing this matter are the citizens'
representation.

Lastly, I am a physician. I am on staff at Honorhealth and certainly have some reservation speaking
out against this. But I feel strongly about this. I expect there will be no backlash from expressing my
opposition.
I have lived in this highly sought after neighborhood for 21 years. Again, there is no need for ANY
Emergency Room in this location. Please be brave and stand up for the residents and please do not
rubber stamp this.

Please leave the Residential Zoning intact.

Respectfully,

Operations SAD BUT TRUE...

Dear Ms. Stark,

The question we have all been asking ourselves is why does HonorHealth want this piece of
land when all around us there are open spaces in already zoned places available. We have done
some research and as it turns out, the following is the reason: Greed!

"Honorhealth will not answer the question: Why Here? We now have documents to finally explain.
Standalone ERs are popping up across the nation in "high income and highly insured" areas. If affiliated with a
hospital (Honorhealth), the facility can upcharge all services. If they are 24/7, they can upcharge even
more. Across the street from this site is PV 85253 which is ranked #1 in AZ for MEDIAN INCOME and #2 for
INCOME GROWTH. PV does not permit development like this. Next best thing is open the facility across the
street in PHX (thanks to liberal development attitude of each of these committees). All of this with millions of
empty commercial square footage nearby at Tatum/Shea and Tatum/Cactus already zoned properly."

In addition, we would like you to read the following article:
*******
In another research, a. neighbor found a Medicare Study on Standalone ERs which is a model of care for this ER. "Key
result of this study:
1. Off campus emergency depts (OCED) that are affiliated with a hospital can charge a lot
more v. no affiliation
2. Urgent Care bills can also be up‐charged with hospital affiliation v no affiliation
3. OCED that stay open 24/7 can charge a lot more for each/every diagnosis v. no 24/7.
Riddell claims the “state” makes them stay open
4. OCEDs are concentrated in “certain markets”: NOT AREAS OF NEED!
5. Study showed that these OCEDs are targeting: high‐income areas, highly insured areas
and positioned for rapid growth
6. Riddell has been claiming 70% of pts seen in an ER could be seen at Urgent Care. TOTAL
LIE! This study showed that 13‐27% of pts seen in ER could be seen at Urgent
Care. Translation: This is NOT an Urgent Care with added Emergency Coverage. It is an
Page 390
Emergency Room with added Urgent Care (that can charge more than all of their
competitors up/down Shea Blvd.
7. Study concluded that cost of typical ER and Urgent Care diagnoses were ALL higher at
these centers v. alternative
8. Medicare sees the value of OCED in under‐served areas but the usage of these centers is
simply increasing the cost of medicine.
9. UGLY REASON WHY RIDDELL/HONORHEALTH HAS NEVER
RESPONDED TO QUESTION …..WHY HERE??
10.
 South side of Shea (across the street from this site) is Zipcode 85253.

 85253 IS RANKED #1 IN AZ: MEDIAN INCOME BY ZIP.

 85253 IS RANKED #2 IN AZ: MEDIAN INCOME GROWTH BY ZIP
 Paradise Valley does not permit commercial development so the next best thing
is to build across the street in Phoenix 85254 (Ranked #13 Median Income) This
project has nothing to do about building where consumers need medical
services. It is about Honorhealth going after affluent market share and their
disregard for the needs of the residents that they claim are being served.

This is a disgusting display of greed at our expense."

The bottom line here is that not only will we lose as neighboring property owners, we will lose again
if we use this facility by being charged inflated prices for the same services given elsewhere. You are our representative
on the city council. You are up for re‐election. At a time when the citizens of this county are feeling that no‐one in
politics is listening to us, no one is representing us, and no‐one is caring about our interests, you have a unique
opportunity, at this present time, to be the bright light in an already depressing state of affairs. Big business are running
our country and we really need you to represent the people who voted for you and are begging you to represent the
homeowners from your area. By voting "NO" on this re‐zoning, you can show your constituents that you are listening
and that you care.

Please take the time to read this article... it will be worth your time doing so.

Sincerely,
