As required by Phoenix City Charter Chapter XVIII, Section 18.B, request City Council
approval of a resolution adopting a 2025-30 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for
the City of Phoenix. This resolution does not appropriate or commit any public funds,
but represents an endorsement of the proposed capital improvements and the five-
year plan of expenditure as a reasonable and desirable plan to be accomplished by
the City. A five-year capital plan is considered a best financial practice.
Summary
The Five-Year CIP is a plan for the replacement, expansion and improvement of City
infrastructure, facilities and technology used to deliver community services. It is
financed from pay-as-you-go funds, property tax and revenue-supported bond
proceeds, federal, state and other participation funds, passenger facility charges,
customer facility charges, participation by other governmental entities in certain
projects, development impact fees, capital grants, capital reserves, solid waste
remediation funds and other capital funding sources.
The Preliminary Five-Year CIP was presented to the City Council on March 18, 2025.
The 2025-30 CIP proposed for adoption includes adjustments to reflect carryovers and
known cost and resource changes.
The City Charter requires that the Five-Year CIP be adopted by resolution following the
advertised public hearing, which this year will take place at the Formal meeting on
June 4, 2025.
Adoption of the resolution (Attachment A) does not commit any funds, but represents
an endorsement of the CIP as a desirable plan to be accomplished over the next five
years. The first year of the CIP is adopted by ordinance as part of the annual budget
adoption process, which provides the only authority to commit funds.

Ordinances -Citywide
As required by City Charter, Chapter XVIII, Section 6(B)(1) and Arizona Revised
Statute 42-17104(A), this item requests the City Council conduct a public hearing on
the adoption of the tentative 2025-26 Annual Budget ordinances (see Attachments
A and B for additional information).
Responsible Department
This item is submitted by City Manager Jeffrey Barton and the Budget and Research
Department.
ATTACHMENT A
Adoption of the Annual Tentative 2025-2026 Budget Ordinances
This report provides backup information to items on the June 4, 2025 Council Formal
agenda regarding adoption of the Tentative 2025-2026 Budget ordinances. These are
the annual steps required by Arizona Revised Statutes (A.R.S.), Title 42, Chapter 17,
Article 3, City Charter, Chapter XVIII, Section 6, and City Code Chapter 2, Section 2-18.
A.R.S. 42-17103 (C) requires adoption of the annual Tentative Budget ordinances,
followed by two consecutive weeks of publication of the adopted Tentative Budget in the
legally prescribed format. Detailed budget schedules prepared on forms provided by
the State Auditor General’s Office and Truth in Taxation notice in accordance with state
law (A.R.S. 42-17102; 42-17107) are attached to this report.
Adoption of the Tentative 2025-2026 budget ordinances requires the following:
1. Holding a public hearing
2. Adoption of the Tentative 2025-2026 Budget ordinance. This ordinance adopts the
portion of the Tentative Budget financed from operating resources. It represents the
2025-2026 Budget approved by the City Council on May 21.
3. Adoption of the Tentative 2025-2026 Capital Funds Budget ordinance. This
ordinance adopts the portion of the Tentative Budget financed from capital funds and
is included in the first fiscal year of the 2025-2030 Capital Improvement Program.
4. Adoption of the Tentative 2025-2026 Reappropriated Funds Budget ordinance. This
budget ordinance is required to rebudget funds that were contractually committed in
the prior fiscal year but not yet fully expended. Since budget appropriations expire
on June 30 of each fiscal year, this ordinance re-establishes the appropriations for
payment of vendors as goods and services are received.
For example, on November 13, 2024, the City Council awarded a contract to J.
Banicki Construction, Inc. to provide Construction Manager at Risk Construction
Services for the Phoenix Deer Valley Airport Reconstruct Taxiway C Connectors C4-
C10 project. The amount of the contract was $8,500,000, which was encumbered, or
committed using the 2024-2025 Aviation Department’s Capital Improvement
Program budget appropriation. However, to-date payments on this contract have not
yet occurred and will extend into fiscal year 2025-2026. The contract amount is
included in the Reappropriated Funds ordinance to ensure the spending authority is
in place for future payments made on this contract during the 2025-2026 fiscal year.
REMAINING STEPS
Following this action, the Tentative 2025-2026 Budget information will be advertised for
two consecutive weeks in accordance with A.R.S. 42-17103 (C).
City Charter, Chapter XVIII, Section 6 (B)(3) requires Council adopt the budget on or
before the last day of June each year. As a result, adoption of the Final 2025-2026
Budget is scheduled for the June 18, 2025 Council Formal meeting. The June 18, 2025
actions will include the Final 2025-2026 Budget ordinance, the Final 2025-2026 Capital
Funds Budget ordinance, and the Final 2025-2026 Reappropriated Funds Budget
ordinance. Both state law and the City Charter require holding public hearings prior to
the adoption of the Budget ordinances.
Also on the June 18, 2025 agenda there will be several items necessary to close out the
current fiscal year and prepare for the annual independent audit. A separate City
Council Report will be provided explaining these funding plan close-out items for the
June 18, 2025 agenda.
The 2025-2026 Property Tax Levy will be brought forward for adoption on July 2, 2025,
as A.R.S. 42-17104 requires this to occur at least 14 days after a public hearing on
expenditures and tax levy. City Charter Chapter XVIII, Section 7 requires adoption of
the Property Tax Levy no later than the last regularly scheduled meeting in July. Based
on the May 21, 2025 City Council action, the levy will reflect a total property tax rate of
$2.0799 per $100 of assessed valuation.

TRUTH IN
TAXATION HEARING
NOTICE OF TAX INCREASE
In compliance with section 42-17107, Arizona Revised Statutes, the city of
Phoenix is notifying its property taxpayers of the city of Phoenix’s intention
to raise its primary property taxes over last year’s level. The city of Phoenix
is proposing an increase in primary property taxes of $2,662,379 or 1.22%.
For example, the proposed tax increase will cause the city of Phoenix’s
primary property taxes on a $100,000 home to be $126.58 (total proposed
taxes including the tax increase). Without the proposed tax increase, the
total taxes that would be owed on a $100,000 home would have been
$125.05.
The proposed increase is exclusive of increased primary property taxes
received from new construction. The increase is also exclusive of any
changes that may occur from property tax levies for voter approved bonded
indebtedness or budget and tax overrides.
All interested citizens are invited to attend the public hearing on the tax
increase that is scheduled to be held June 18, 2025 at 2:30 p.m. at the city
of Phoenix Council Chambers, 200 W. Jefferson St.

Citywide
Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to amend an existing
agreement with FUSE (Agreement 162288. The amendment is to extend the
agreement term two additional years and recruit four additional FUSE Executive
Fellows to support City of Phoenix Sustainability programs in various departments.
FUSE will cover 90 percent of the Fellows' compensation cost. The City will cover 10
percent of the cost, or up to $20,000 per year for each Fellow. The total City cost is up
to $160,000 over two years.
Summary
FUSE is a national nonprofit dedicated to increasing the capacity of local governments
to work more effectively for communities. Founded in 2011 by a group of public-,
private-, and social-sector leaders, FUSE assists communities in adapting to
constantly evolving sustainability challenges. FUSE administers an executive
fellowship-based model funded through philanthropy to accelerate community-based,
renewable energy focused programs and projects.
The City's existing agreement with FUSE was approved by City Council in November

Citywide solar programs. This amendment would authorize four additional Executive
Fellows to conduct the following:
1) Support the Public Works Department in advancing the City's fleet vehicle
electrification and climate action goals through the development of a strategic plan for
low-emission and alternative-fuel fleet transition. This Fellow will help assess
infrastructure needs, vehicle performance, and technology readiness across
departments.
2) Support the Public Works Department in its efforts to advance the Resource
Innovation Campus development and become a national leader in circular economy
innovation. By focusing on sustainable waste diversion, business attraction, and end-of
-life materials management, this Fellow will help refine strategies to attract and support
companies working in e-waste, solar panel recycling, and electric battery vehicle
recovery.
3) Support the Office of Environmental Programs in expanding sustainable urban
agriculture as a strategy to address food insecurity, resource conservation, and long-
term climate resilience. This Fellow will develop a strategic plan to help scale
regenerative agriculture and agrivoltaics aligned with the City's 2030 Food Action Plan.
4) Support the Aviation Department in advancing its roadmap to achieve net-zero
carbon emissions by 2040. This Fellow will assess and validate current sustainability
strategies while identifying emerging opportunities to enhance operational resilience.
Key areas of focus include exploring alternative energy generation such as solar,
battery storage, and microgrids, alongside utility-scale renewable partnerships and
electrification of ground operations.
Contract Term
The amended contract will be extended for up to an additional two years.
Financial Impact
The Aviation Department, Public Works Department, and Office of Environmental
Programs have the funding to cover the City's portion of up to $160,000 for four
Fellows for up to two years. The City will have the option to terminate any of the
Fellows, or the agreement with FUSE entirely, at any time and the City's costs will be
prorated based on the amount of time each Fellow provides to the City.

shelter, essential services, and facility operations. UMOM, being the largest family
shelter in the state of Arizona, can accommodate the need.

ATTACHMENT E – FY 2026 Insurance Requirements
The City’s insurance requirements are minimum requirements for this Agreement and in no
way limit the indemnity covenants contained in this Agreement. The City in no way warrants

Contractors and GPEC is free to purchase such additional insurance as may be determined
necessary.
A. Minimum Scope and Limits of Insurance. GPEC shall provide coverage at least as

volunteers.
C. Other Insurance Requirements. The policies are to contain, or be endorsed to contain, the
following provisions:
1. Commercial General Liability

d. GPEC's insurance coverage shall be primary insurance with respect to City,
its officers, officials, agents, employees and volunteers. Any insurance or self-

of notice. Such notice shall be by certified mail, return receipt requested.
E. Acceptability of Insurers. Insurance is to be placed with insurers duly licensed or
approved unlicensed companies in the State of Arizona and with a "Best's" rating of not
less than A-:VII. City in no way warrants that the above required minimum insurer rating
is sufficient to protect GPEC from potential insurer insolvency.
F. Verification of Coverage. GPEC shall furnish City with Certificates of Insurance
(ACORD form or equivalent approved by City) and with original endorsements effecting
coverage as required by this Agreement. The certificates and endorsements for each
insurance policy are to be signed by a person authorized by that insurer to bind coverage
on its behalf. Any policy endorsements that restrict or limit coverage shall be clearly noted
on the Certificate of Insurance.
All certificates and endorsements are to be received and approved by City before work
commences. Each insurance policy required by this Agreement must be in effect at or prior

ATTACHMENT F – Regional Cooperation Protocol Policy
Regional Cooperation Protocol Policy
Greater Phoenix Economic Council and Economic Development Directors Team
The foundation of this policy is built on trust and the spirit of regional cooperation among the entities
involved. GPEC and the Economic Development Directors of its member communities agree and
acknowledge that it is important that they work together as partners on projects involving the communities
which GPEC represents, regardless of the source of the lead, as follows:
1. Demonstrate a commitment to the positive promotion of the Greater Phoenix, specifically, GPEC
member communities, as a globally competitive region.
2. Maintain the highest standards of economic development prospect handling, including confidentiality,
without jeopardizing a prospect’s trust to secure the probability of a regional locate. Partners agree to
respect the prospect’s request for confidentiality but also agree to notify each other as to the existence of
a project with a confidentiality requirement when able and shall make a good-faith effort to involve the
appropriate state, regional or local partners at the earliest possible time.
3. Unless otherwise restricted, agree to coordinate through GPEC for any prospect considering a project in
Maricopa County or in any of the communities that GPEC represents, understanding that GPEC is in a
unique position to represent and speak on regional economic development issues and on characteristics
of the region’s economy. Likewise, GPEC acknowledges that communities are in the best position to
speak about local incentives and efforts surrounding the local economy.
4. For projects that originate with a GPEC member community, GPEC will be available for confidential
research access, topical expertise or as a service provider, to add value to the community in securing the
project. Additionally, GPEC will not e-track the project unless the community lead makes such a
request to do so.
5. Provide accurate and timely information in response to specific requests by all prospects. When a client
has narrowed sites to specific GPEC member communities, GPEC will make a good faith effort to
inform those affected EDDT members first. EDDT members agree to provide information solely on
their own community when the information requested is site-specific (i.e., cost of land, taxes,
development fees, utility availability and cost, zoning process timing, permit timing and local
incentives). When site-specific information related to other GPEC communities is requested, EDDT
members agree to (i) direct GPEC prospects back to GPEC or (ii) direct non-GPEC generated prospects
to contact the affected communities directly, and as a courtesy, contact the affected communities.
6. Agree that regardless of the lead source, public locate announcements shall be coordinated among the
company, GPEC member community, and GPEC to reflect inclusiveness and cooperation of all partners
(subject to any confidentiality requirements).
7. GPEC and EDDTs will advocate for a robust operating budget for the state economic development
agency, and champion sound statewide economic development programs and policies.
8. Discourage the proactive offering of local, municipal financial incentives for existing jobs to companies
with current operations in another GPEC community.
9. Inform GPEC member community when a company visits or physical site visit within that community
will occur. Economic Development Directors will be the primary point of contact for the company when
community information is needed.
10. In the event that a project working with GPEC or any member community is discovered to have an
existing presence within the region, the member community will notify the economic development
director of the project’s current home community, notwithstanding prohibition due to a non-disclosure
agreement.
11. Agree that the consideration of a future community to GPEC’s membership will be brought before
EDDT for discussion in advance of any board consideration. EDDT will make a recommendation on the
addition of a new community to GPEC’s President and CEO.
12. Formalize a process to convene GPEC and Economic Development Directors of GPEC member
communities biannually, and cooperate in the exchange of information and ideas reflecting practices,
procedures and policies relating to prospect handling and regional economic development.
13. Work collectively to maintain a high level of trust and integrity by and between GPEC and the
Economic Development Directors of GPEC member communities, utilizing differing views as an
opportunity to learn.
14. When conducting market intelligence initiative objective, GPEC staff will coordinate with EDDT to
ensure coordination and communication.
15. When a Prospect Information Form (PIF) is issued by the state economic development agency GPEC
will coordinate the region’s response. All PIF submissions will be directed to GPEC’s attention and
GPEC will assemble the response and return to the state economic development agency.
16. It is understood GPEC will or may host annual executour(s) and/or other marketing familiarization
tour(s) to promote the regional communities. GPEC will make every attempt to provide as much
interaction time between the executour guests and EDDTs. It is understood EDDTS will inform GPEC
of any upcoming executour(s) and/or other marketing familiarization tours scheduled by their office.

(Ordinance S-52031) - District 3
Authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to amend City Contract 154095 with PV
Land SPE, LLC (Developer), or its City-approved designee, to increase the proportion
of Transaction Privilege Taxes (TPT) available to reimburse Developer for public
improvements constructed as part of the project, and to provide dedicated wastewater
capacity for the project. Further recommend approval for the City Treasurer to accept
and the City Controller to disburse funds related to this request.
Summary
The City and Developer entered into a development agreement (Agreement) in 2021 in
order to facilitate the demolition and redevelopment of the former Paradise Valley Mall
into a mixed-use development (Project). The Agreement allowed for reimbursement by
the City of public improvements constructed by the Developer utilizing eligible Project-
generated TPT.
Following the completion of demolition and commencement of construction in 2022, a
new state law, Senate Bill 1131, was passed in 2023 prohibiting municipalities from
collecting a residential rental tax, effective January 1, 2025. Reimbursement of the
residential rental tax was forecasted over a period of 25 years under the Agreement
and was part of the Developer’s financial assumptions as part of constructing the
Project.
In 2024, Council authorized an amendment to allow the use of the restricted Non-
General Fund share of TPT generated on-site to reimburse for public infrastructure
constructed on the site. In 2025, Council authorized a second amendment to extend
the term of the Agreement from 25 years to 30 years. The parties would like to
increase the percentage of eligible TPT available to reimburse to Developer from 50
percent to 100 percent for the duration of the term of the Agreement.
As an added term to the Agreement, the City will reserve an additional average daily
flow of 45,000 gallons per day of wastewater capacity to provide for the full build-out of
the Project, which is equivalent to an additional 250 multifamily dwelling units. Should
additional wastewater capacity be needed in the future, City and Developer will work
together to identify the capacity needed.
All other terms and conditions of the Agreements will remain in full force and effect.
Financial Impact
Project-generated TPT is only available for actual public infrastructure and amenities
completed by the Developer and accepted by the City during the 30-year term.
Concurrence/Previous Council Action
On February 17, 2021, City Council approved Contract 154095 (Ordinance S-47323).
On June 26, 2024, City Council approved an amendment authorizing additional Non-
General Fund TPT as reimbursable (Ordinance S-51125).
On March 5, 2025, City Council approved an amendment authorizing extending the
term of the Agreement to 30-years (Ordinance S-51714).

Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to amend City Contract
154617 with Phoenix Sister Cities, Inc. (PSC) to increase funding. Further request to
authorize the City Controller to disburse all funds related to this item. The additional
expenditures will not exceed $150,000.
Summary
PSC is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization established in 1972. It exists to create people
-to-people relationships between the residents of Phoenix and its Sister Cities through
commercial, educational, cultural, and artistic exchange programs and events that
create and sustain global, long-term, international partnerships, and business
opportunities for Phoenix. The City has contracted with PSC since the mid-1980s. The
organization is administered by a Board of Directors composed of PSC Commission
members appointed by the Mayor and approved by the City Council, the chairpersons
of the 11 Sister Cities committees, and the Disability Awareness Committee. Currently,
four other community members serve as at-large Board members.
Beginning Fiscal Year 2023-24, PSC expanded beyond its traditional role and provided
support to the City’s International Trade Strategy. To meet this expanded role and
continue the work already undertaken, funding for PSC’s current contract included
costs associated with the Phoenix Global Forum, an annual international economic
development conference, in partnership with the International Economic Forum of the
Americas. On May 2, 2024, PSC and the City hosted the first Phoenix Global Forum.
On April 8 and 9, 2025, PSC presented the second Phoenix Global Forum. With nearly
200 global attendees and more than 7,000 online impressions, including participants
streaming the conference, the Forum brought together international corporate
leadership in critical minerals, advanced air mobility, the sustainable grid, space
innovation, artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and healthcare. Numerous
bilateral meetings and networking opportunities encouraged corporate leaders to
explore collaborations, new investments and joint operations. PSC secured a number
of pledges from sponsors totaling more than $675,000 for this event. Due to the
significant international and national visibility of the Forum, as well as a commitment to
international trade efforts, staff requests to increase the PSC contract by $150,000 for
the additional costs of hosting the event.

intergovernmental agreement, and other agreements as necessary, with the Maricopa
County Community Colleges District (MCCCD), on behalf of Gateway Community
College (Gateway), to support the expansion of the Phoenix Forge, an entrepreneur
and innovation facility located at 535 W. Van Buren Street in Downtown Phoenix.
Further request to authorize the City Controller to disburse funds under the terms of
the agreement.
Summary
The Phoenix Forge, located at 535 W. Van Buren Street in Downtown Phoenix, serves
as a learning environment offering students a location to learn the practical application
of coursework while providing the entrepreneur, hobbyist, inventor, and small business
community with a place to access the tools and equipment needed for idea fabrication
and product development. Phase one of the facility opened in 2021. Since opening,
the 17,000 square foot space serves all ten MCCCD colleges, members of the public,
and Arizona State University, and has grown to almost 2,000 members.
Phoenix Forge is part of a nationwide effort to create meaningful and collaborative
relationships between Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math (STEAM). It
serves as a cross-disciplinary learning lab for MCCCD students and is also available to
the public for a nominal membership fee. The Phoenix Forge offers an academic
model of credit and non-credit courses and short, one-time workshops. This model
creates a rich learning environment that supports student success by encouraging
critical-thinking, creativity and innovation.
MCCCD is preparing to begin a 4,000 square foot expansion of the Phoenix Forge to
include:
· Dedicated Glassblowing Facility
· Advanced Manufacturing Equipment including CNC Machining and Turning Centers
for Cutting Metals and Plastics
· Sanding Room
· Finishing Booths
· Rental Work Bays
Under the terms of the agreement, the City will contribute $250,000 towards the
physical and programmatic startup costs of the expanded facility, including
construction of tenant improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment. The total cost
for renovation of the space is estimated at more than $3 million. A third-party economic
impact analysis indicated the Phoenix Forge will generate approximately $36 million in
economic output over a 10-year period of time including $1.4 million in tax revenue.
The expansion would generate approximately $400,000 in the tax revenue for Phoenix
and the other tax jurisdictions.
Since opening, the Phoenix Convention Center Department (PCCD) has provided 100
parking spaces at the City-owned Adams Street Garage located at 310 W. Adams
Street. To support the expansion of the facility, the City will provide an additional five-
year term to the existing parking agreement that expires in 2026. In lieu of parking
revenue, an annual parking maintenance fee of $2,000 is collected each year of the
five-year term to assist in maintaining the garage. The Community and Economic
Development Department (CEDD) pays this fee on behalf of MCCCD.
Financial Impact
There is no impact to the General Fund. CEDD will be charged $2,000 annually by
PCCD for the parking maintenance fee, not to exceed $10,000 over the life of the five-
year term. Funding is available in the Downtown Community Reinvestment Fund.

for the Fire Station 15 General Obligation Bond project. Further request to authorize
the City Controller to disburse all funds related to this item. The fee for services will not
exceed $11,010,000.
Summary
The purpose of this project is to build a new fire station to enable Phoenix Fire
Department staff to support the surrounding community and create quicker response
times to calls. The new one-story facility will be comprised of approximately 20,810
square feet and was designed per the City of Phoenix Fire Department building design
standards and will incorporate environmental design principles similar to Leadership in
Environmental and Energy Design to reduce energy consumption and enable water
preservation.
Danson Construction, LLC’s services include, but are not limited to: providing complete
construction services to build the proposed Phoenix Fire Station 15 facility to include
four apparatus bays, 16 dormitories, a fitness room, a community room, a kitchen, and
work/living spaces and other work as required for a complete project.
Procurement Information
The selection was made using an Invitation for Bids procurement process set forth in
Section 34-201 of the Arizona Revised Statutes. Thirteen bids were received on April
22, 2025 and were sent to the Equal Opportunity Department for review to determine
subcontractor eligibility and contractor responsiveness in demonstrating
responsiveness to Small Business Enterprise program requirements.
The Opinion of Probable Cost and the lowest responsive, responsible bidder is listed
below:
· Opinion of Probable Cost: $15,850,133
· Danson Construction, LLC: $11,010,000
Bidders who were deemed non-responsive are listed below, in alphabetical order:
· BFL Construction Co., Inc.
· BPR Companies, LLC

state and cities causing many projects to be terminated or halted. The result of these
impacts has created an incredibly competitive construction market currently with an
influx of subcontractors looking for new work.
Due to volatile material costs and increased labor prices in the construction industry, a
10 percent contingency is being requested to allow for project uncertainties. The initial
contract will be executed at the bid amount of $11,010,000. Use of the 10 percent
contingency above the amount will not be allowed without the prior written approval of
the Fire Department Director and the City Engineer.

Recommendations for the 2025 Grant Program Awards and Appropriation from
the Block Watch Fund (Ordinance S-52042) - Citywide
This report requests City Council approval of the recommendations from the
Neighborhood Block Watch Grant Program (NBWGP) Oversight Committee and staff
to fund 172 grant applications for the 2025 grant cycle and additional appropriations
from the Block Watch Fund. This report also includes an update on the gated alley and
gated wash program supported by Neighborhood Block Watch funds.
Summary
The NBWGP Oversight Committee was established to solicit, evaluate, and
recommend to the Mayor and City Council appropriate proposals to expend funds for
the expansion of the Block Watch programs within the limits of the Neighborhood
Protection Ordinance. This ordinance, known as Proposition 301, was adopted at a
special election on October 5, 1993. The City Council adopted the format and
guidelines for this process on April 26, 1994. The NBWGP program is administered by
the Police Department.
The 2025 NBWGP grant application process opened on November 1, 2024 and closed
on December 7, 2024. The NBWGP Oversight Committee scored the grant
applications based on the following criteria: Crime Prevention/Quality of Life Factors
for 50 percent, Budget Evaluation for 20 percent, Community Involvement for 20
percent, and Project Viability/Feasibility/Ability to Complete the Project for 10 percent.
A total of 177 grant applications were received. Of those evaluated, 171 applications
were recommended for funding by the Oversight Committee. After further review, staff
recommended funding an additional application, therefore increasing the
recommendation to 172 applications totaling $2,162,187. Five applications were not
recommended for funding as they scored below the minimum requirement of 5.25 out
of 10 points for various reasons including a lack of neighborhood participation, lack of
documentation or requesting items the grant does not cover.
On April 10, 2025, the Oversight Committee voted to fund 171 applicants. However,
staff recommended to fund an additional application increasing the total to 172 .See
Attachment A for a full list of the Fiscal Year (FY) 2025-26 recommended grant
applications.
The Oversight Committee also voted (eight in favor, one opposed, zero in conflict, zero
abstained) to recommend to increase funding for the Neighborhood Block Watch
Program from $2,000,000 to $2,162,187 for the 2025 Grant award. The amount will be
reduced to $2,154,111 annually each year thereafter. The program’s fund balance
allows for the recommended increase.
Gated Alley Program Update
As a resident-driven initiative, the Gated Alley Program (GAP) significantly enhances
neighborhood safety and quality of life. Demand for the program has increased from
15 requests per month to 25 or more per month over the past year. A recent review of
Phoenix Police data showed a 15 percent reduction in calls for service overall, and an
incredible 11.4 percent reduction in violent calls for service for properties adjacent to
gated alleys over the year prior to gating.
In October 2024, City Council approved $3 million in Neighborhood Block Watch
Program (NBWP) funds to support the GAP over two years. This allocation is funding
approximately 250 alley segments, and recently helped Neighborhood Services
Department complete the 1,000th gate under the program.
At the time of additional NBWP funding approval, the GAP received around 15
requests per month. However, following significant media coverage, interest in the
program surged. From November 2024 through March 2025, GAP requests averaged
25 per month. As of mid-April 2025, 118 alley segments have gates installed or are in
the construction process with an additional 45 requests under review. Based on this
rate, the $3 million allocation is now projected to be fully expended by early FY 2025-
26, sooner than anticipated. To continue meeting community demand, staff is
requesting $2.25 million annually in NBWP funds, subject to availability, beginning in
FY 2025-26.
The proposed ongoing $2.25 million allocation from the Neighborhood Block Watch
Program represents a significant increase over the FY 2024-25 General Fund
allocation and would allow Neighborhood Services to gate approximately 200 alley
segments per year. Funding for future years is contingent on fund availability to be
monitored by the Phoenix Police, Neighborhood Services, and Budget and Research
departments and the City Manager’s Office. This will help enhance neighborhood
safety and further reduce calls for service.
Youth Prevention Program Pilot
As part of the City's public safety improvement efforts, Mayor and City Council and
members of the community have encouraged staff to provide additional resources and
establish programming specifically for youth. Youth prevention programs are intended
to alleviate and address potential risks to youth, such as substance abuse and
violence, while providing supportive environments and interventions to help youth
avoid involvement in the criminal justice system. Additional resources to support
community organizations to provide these services are needed. As a result, staff
recommends, as part of the City's public safety improvement efforts, to establish a pilot
program through the Human Services Department (HSD) to facilitate providing youth
prevention programming through community based organizations. Staff is requesting
$500,000 of NBWP funds for this pilot program. If approved, HSD staff will conduct a
procurement process to select local service providers for the youth prevention
programming pilot.
Contract Term
The award period is July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2026.

program. Funding provided under this grant will not exceed $175,000. Further request
authorization for the City Treasurer to accept, and the City Controller to disburse, all

Summary
The U.S. Conference of Mayors has long been recognized for its commitment to both
police reform and civil rights and for bringing mayors and police chiefs together to
strengthen police-community relations and build trust between police departments and
the communities they serve. Target, as well, has fostered a long standing commitment
to creating and maintaining strong, healthy, and safe communities. Its support for the
Conference through the years has made the Police Reform and Equitable Justice
Grant Program possible.
The overall goals of this effort are to recognize, strengthen and sustain policies and
practices that police departments are employing today in pursuit of equitable treatment
of all persons they are pledged to serve and protect. The overall scope of the project
includes creating policy and training for the Police Department that emphasizes de-
escalation during police interactions and accounts for youth brain development and
characteristics.
The project encompasses a number of initiatives to comprehensively evaluate and
develop processes targeting the Police Department's approach to youth interactions.
Key components include:
· Youth Interactions Policy Development: A dedicated Youth Interactions Policy is
under development to provide officers with clear guidance on engaging with youth
and fostering an understanding of their developmental stages and perspectives.
This policy will serve as the foundational element of the initiative.
· Youth Survey: Recognizing the importance of community input, the project
proactively initiated a survey of Phoenix residents to gather insights on community
concerns related to Police Department's interactions with youth. While this survey is
currently open, initial responses overwhelmingly emphasize and support the initial
policy draft.
· Comprehensive Policy Review: A thorough examination of existing Police
Department policies relevant to enforcement to identify areas for revision and
alignment with best practices.
· Enhanced Training Evaluation and Development of Best-Practice Training: A
detailed assessment of current advanced training in interpersonal communication
and the developmental stages and limitations of children and adolescents will be
undertaken to pinpoint areas for improvement. The project will work with external
clinicians and subject matter experts to create new training specifically addressing
de-escalation, and the unique expectations and standards for youth interactions.
This training will emphasize developmentally appropriate approaches for both
discretionary enforcement and non-enforcement actions.
· System for Compliance Measurement and Dissemination: development of a
compliance framework to analyze and evaluate the effectiveness of the policies and
training on the outcome of youth interactions, with specific emphasis on de-
escalation.

S-51978) - District 8
Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to enter into a contract to
transfer ownership of certain Passenger Boarding Bridges between American Airlines
and the City of Phoenix (City) at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport.
Summary
Passenger boarding bridges (bridges) are critical to the conveyance of passengers at
Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport. Bridges, which connect passenger planes to
the concourses, can be owned by airlines or the airport.
The Aviation Department owns 31 bridges and American Airlines owns 28 bridges in
the north concourses of Terminal 4. The Aviation Department currently leases 25
bridges to American Airlines on an exclusive use gate basis under a Jetway Use
Agreement (JUA). The nature of this exclusive use restricts the Aviation Department
from supporting common use gate activity at these gates for other airlines.
The Aviation Department seeks to acquire 20 American Airlines-owned bridges to
convert to common-use. By installing common use technology, the Aviation
Department will gain the flexibility to use these gates for other air carriers. As part of
the proposed agreement, the Aviation Department would allow American Airlines to
retain preferential use of these gates for their operations, and the Aviation Department
would transfer ownership of City-owned bridges to American Airlines for their exclusive
use.
To accomplish this transaction, American would transfer ownership of a total of 20
American Airlines-owned bridges, valued at approximately $9.4 million to the City, and
the City would transfer ownership of 23 City-owned bridges, valued at approximately
$5.4 million, to American Airlines. The difference in asset value of approximately $4
million will be remitted by the City to American Airlines in the form of rent credits.
Contract Term
American Airlines’ existing JUA will continue on a month-to-month basis.
Financial Impact
If approved, the City will remit approximately $4 million to American Airlines in the form
of rent credits. Annual revenue from American Airlines’ JUA would be reduced by
approximately $124,000 due to the reduced number of City-owned bridges leased to
American Airlines. This loss of revenue will be offset by fees generated from common
use gate usage by other air carriers, resulting in minimal change in revenue to the City.

(Ordinance S-52010) - District 8
Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to extend Contract Number
152010 with BOINGO Wireless, Inc. to allow continued public wireless internet (Wi-Fi)
support service in all terminals, the Rental Car Center, and terminal curbsides at
Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX). The current contract is scheduled to
expire on July 31, 2025.
Summary
Fast and free Wi-Fi is an essential amenity for the thousands of passengers that visit
PHX every single day. On average, more than 37,000 users connect to the public Wi-
Fi service daily. In 2024, more than 13.7 million passengers accessed the public Wi-Fi
service at PHX.
Through a contract with Boingo Wireless, Inc., the Aviation Department (Aviation)
provides public Wi-Fi service at the following PHX locations: all public access areas of
Terminal 3 including curbsides; all public access areas of Terminal 4 including
curbsides; and the Rental Car Center.
The current revenue contract is due to expire July 31, 2025. The airport Wi-Fi services
market is undergoing a fundamental shift. Traditional revenue-generating contract
models are being phased out as airports increasingly transition to managed service
arrangements that operate at cost to the airport. Based on this industry trend, Aviation
has determined it will be most beneficial to bring Wi-Fi services in-house provided by
the City. As a result, Aviation is requesting to extend the term of the current contract
until the Wi-Fi services can be fully transitioned in-house.
Contract Term
The contract term of the extension will be one year, effective August 1, 2025, and
continuing thereafter month-to-month until the date the Wi-Fi service is fully
transitioned to the City.
Financial Impact
The financial terms of the contract will not change during the extension period. The
provider will continue to pay rent to the City in the amount of Minimum Annual
Guarantee (MAG) or 35 percent of gross sales earned, whichever is greater.

District 8
Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to enter into a new facility
lease with KinderCare Education at Work, LLC, dba KinderCare for Employers, to build
out and operate a childcare facility at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport.
Summary
As part of the City of Phoenix allocation of American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds,
the Phoenix City Council undertook a review of departments and programs to identify
areas where additional support could help essential workers.
As part of this effort, the City Council adopted an ARPA funding strategic plan on June
8, 2021. One element of the plan was to provide childcare support to essential workers
at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (Airport). The Aviation Department was
allocated $5 million as part of that process for badged Airport workers.
A key element of this program is the construction of a childcare facility at the 44th
Street Sky Train station. The Aviation Department is building a facility shell with airport
revenues, and issued a Revenue Contract Solicitation for a childcare provider to build-
out, operate, and manage a quality affordable childcare facility. The selected provider
will provide a safe, healthy, and nurturing environment for the children of eligible
Airport employees and workers of City of Phoenix and its tenant contractors, lessees,
and licensees. Services could also be offered to the general public on a space-
available basis should Airport worker demand for services not materialize.
The solicitation included requirements for the operator to work with the Aviation
Department to build out the facility, make tenant improvements to the facility in
accordance with childcare best practices, and operate the facility in compliance with
state requirements.
Staff worked throughout the procurement process to solicit and incorporate industry
feedback in the final agreement terms, including adjusting lease terms to allow
amortization of capital investment.
The procurement was paused to address a timely protest related to the procurement
process. Subsequently, the Aviation Department convened a second, independent
evaluation panel. Both panels recommended proceeding with KinderCare Education at
Work, LLC, dba KinderCare for Employers, as the recommended awardee.
Procurement Information
The Aviation Department issued AVN RCS 24-001 on January 10, 2024.
The proposals were evaluated and scored by an evaluation panel through consensus
scoring on the following criteria:
•Overall qualification and experience of the respondent and key personnel (up to 375
points).
•Method of approach and management, marketing, operations, and technology plans
(up to 350 points).
•Design of the childcare service facility (up to 275 points).
KinderCare Education at Work, LLC, dba KinderCare for Employers, is the responsive
and responsible bidder and is the recommended contractor for the award of this
contract.
•KinderCare Education at Work, LLC, dba KinderCare for Employers: 865 points
•Bright Beginnings: 640 points
Contract Term
The initial term of the lease will be for 12-18 months to allow for facility construction,
followed by a primary lease term of 10 years, and two, five-year options to extend
which may be exercised at the sole discretion of the Aviation Director.
Financial Impact
To support the construction of the childcare facility, the Aviation Department is
providing approximately $3.8 million in Capital Improvement Funds to construct the
facility shell. Additionally, the department will be applying $3 million in ARPA funds to
tenant improvements to the facility once the operator is approved by the City Council.
Based on the feedback provided during the pre-proposal process and given the
pioneering nature of this initiative and solicitation, the Aviation Department has
determined it is appropriate to waive rent through the fifth year of the primary lease
term.
The operator will be subject to a net rental rate of $132,620 per year commencing the
sixth year of the primary term.

and executes an amendment to its Service Agreement with RPTA to authorize funding
for that year. At the end of each fiscal year, the Public Transit Department and RPTA
assess the actual miles operated, gross costs incurred, and applicable revenue to
reconcile the difference between the original estimates and actual costs.
In FY 2025-26, service purchased from RPTA will include, but is not limited to the
following bus service within Phoenix: Routes 30 (University Drive); 45 (Broadway
Road); 56 (Priest Drive); 61 (Southern Avenue); 77 (Baseline Road); 108 (Elliot
Road/48th Street); 140 (Ray Road); and 156 (Chandler Boulevard).

Summary
The City of Phoenix and Valley Metro recently completed a multi-year project to

equipment, new reloadable and online fare media, and an online app for riders to plan
their trip and manage their fare accounts. Vix Technology (USA) Inc. (Vix) provides the
fare collection system platform, including cloud hosting, hardware, software, and
support.
The current contract with Vix includes both the project component, which will soon be
closed out, and ongoing operations and maintenance support. These amendments
would add additional elements to the ongoing maintenance and support, including
dedicated on-call technical support, replacement of vandalized equipment, additional
fare media, ongoing improvements to the mobile app and web site, and development

integration of payments for other transit modes, new app and online capabilities, as
well as new and evolving payment options.
The transit fare collection system is funded by and supports the entire region. Since
the Public Transit Department manages the transit region’s technology infrastructure,
the support and maintenance for the system is part of the Vix contract with the City.
Decisions on the priority and funding for future enhancements will be coordinated with
Valley Metro.

Department.

Located at the southwest corner of 10th Street and Southern Avenue, the Roosevelt
Park Grocery was constructed circa 1930. The property was identified as a rare
remaining example of an early twentieth-century neighborhood grocery store and is
recommended individually eligible for historic designation in the City of Phoenix
Historic Property Register (historic designation has been initiated).
The building sat vacant when acquired by Zebiba Hagos in 2021 who, along with
sister Nuraine Hagos (added as a property owner in 2022), seek to return it to a
grocery/mercantile use.
The owners submitted a threatened building grant application on March 14, 2025,
requesting $150,000 in funding. After reviewing the application, staff recognized the
eligible work items exceeded that request and determined that additional eligible
work could be covered by the Phil Gordon Threatened Building Grant Funds for the
current Fiscal Year. Subsequently, on April 10, 2025, Nuraine Hagos submitted an
updated itemized budget requesting $300,500 reimbursement and the required
narrative description of eligible work items with a larger scope of work utilizing the
grant funds. The owners are seeking funding assistance for the following eligible
work items:
1. Repair of masonry and adobe walls.
2. Stucco repair.
3. Exterior and interior concrete repair.
4. Window and door repair and replacement.
5. Roof repairs and reinforcement of historic roof structure.
6. ADA improvements.
7. Selective demolition.
8. Repainting.
The cost of the entire rehabilitation project is estimated at $412,895.
Staff recommends allocating the use of $300,500 in available Phil Gordon
Threatened Building grant funds for this project.
If approved, the grant funds will be disbursed to the applicant on a reimbursement
basis as work is completed.
Financial Impact
The requested amount is $300,500. In exchange for the grant funds, the City will
receive a 30-year conservation easement. The easement will require that the
property be preserved, insured, and maintained in good repair once rehabilitation is
completed.

Application: GPA-DSTV-1-24-2
Owner: 64th & Mayo Bidder, LLC
Applicant: JLB Partners, LLC
Representative: Nick Wood, Snell & Wilmer, LLP
Location: Northeast corner of 64th Street and Mayo Boulevard
Acreage: 50.20 acres
Current Plan Designation: Commercial / Commerce/Business Park (32.24
acres)
Residential 5 to 10 dwelling units per acre (17.96

Requested Plan Designation: Commercial / Residential 15+ dwelling units per
acre (50.20 acres)
Reason for Requested Change: Minor General Plan Amendment to allow mixed-use
multifamily residential and commercial uses
Desert View Village Planning
Committee Meeting Date: April 1, 2025
Staff Recommendation: Approval
FINDINGS:
1) The proposal will facilitate a mix of residential and commercial uses, contributing
to the land use mix in the area.
2) The companion rezoning case, Z-87-D-03-2, proposes design and development
standards that will enhance connectivity in the immediate vicinity, including
enhanced shade and detached sidewalks, and buffer the proposed uses from the
adjacent residences.
Staff Analysis
GPA-DSTV-1-24-2
Page 2
3) The subject site is appropriate for multifamily residential and commercial uses, as
the site has access to an arterial street and is adjacent to a freeway interchange.
BACKGROUND
The subject site is a 50.20-acre vacant site located at the northeast corner of 64th
Street and Mayo Boulevard with frontage along the Loop 101 freeway to the north. The
current General Plan Land Use Map designations on the site are 32.24 acres of
Commercial / Commerce/Business Park on the western portion and 17.96 acres of
Residential 5 to 10 dwelling units per acre on the eastern portion. The applicant
proposes to change the designation of the entirety of the site to Commercial /
Residential 15+ dwelling units per acre to allow mixed-use multifamily residential and
commercial uses.
Companion Case Z-87-D-03-2 (64th & Mayo PUD) is a request to rezone the subject
site from S-1 (Approved CP/BP PCD) (Ranch or Farm Residence, Approved Commerce
Park District, Business Park Option, Planned Community District), S-1 (Approved R-3A
PCD) (Ranch or Farm Residence, Approved Multifamily Residence District, Planned
Community District), and S-1 (Ranch or Farm Residence) to PUD PCD (Planned Unit
Development, Planned Community District) for a Major Amendment to the Paradise
Ridge PCD to allow multifamily and single-family attached residential. Although the
proposed PUD only allows residential use, this General Plan Amendment would allow
commercial uses as an option in the future, which could be accomplished through an
amendment to the PUD.
SURROUNDING LAND USES
North of the subject site is freeway right-of-way for the Loop 101 freeway designated as
Transportation on the General Plan Land Use Map. East of the site, across 66th Street,
is multifamily residential development designated Residential 5 to 10 dwelling units per
acre. South of the site, across Mayo Boulevard, is single-family detached development
and vacant land designated Residential 5 to 10 dwelling units per acre. West of the site,
across 64th Street, is vacant land designated Commercial / Commerce/Business Park.

RELATIONSHIP TO GENERAL PLAN CORE VALUES AND PRINCIPLES
CONNECT PEOPLE & PLACES
• OPPORTUNITY SITES; LAND USE PRINCIPLE: Support reasonable levels
of increased intensity, respectful of local conditions and surrounding
neighborhoods.
The proposal for additional residential and commercial uses is appropriate for
this location on two arterial streets and a freeway, and the proposed PUD
proposes development standards to prevent negative impacts on the adjacent
residential properties.
CELEBRATE OUR DIVERSE COMMUNITIES & NEIGHBORHOODS
• DIVERSE NEIGHBORHOODS; LAND USE PRINCIPLE: Communities should
consist of a mix of land uses to provide housing, shopping, dining and
recreational options for residents.
The proposal will contribute to the mix of uses in the area by providing new
residential and commercial uses.
BUILD THE SUSTAINABLE DESERT CITY
• TREES AND SHADE: DESIGN PRINCIPLE: Integrate trees and shade into
the design of new development and redevelopment projects throughout
Phoenix.
The proposal, as regulated by the PUD Narrative of companion rezoning case Z-
87-D-03-2, includes development standards that require enhanced landscaping
and shade, including detached sidewalks and minimum shade requirements for
sidewalks and parking areas. This will help to provide shade for pedestrians and
bicyclists in and around the community and to mitigate the urban heat island
effect by covering hard surfaces, thus cooling the micro-climate around the
vicinity.
COMMUNITY INPUT SUMMARY
At the time this staff report was written, staff has not received any community
correspondence regarding this request.
CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of GPA-DSTV-1-24-2. The proposed land use map
designation allows for commercial and multifamily residential development at an
appropriate location. The companion rezoning case, Z-87-D-03-2, as stipulated, will

enhance connectivity in the surrounding area and add standards to buffer the proposed
uses from the nearby residences.

Desert View Village Planning Committee
Meeting Summary
GPA-DSTV-1-24-2 – Recommendation
staff report. Mr. Zambrano recommended that if the committee voted to recommend
approval on this item, that their recommendation include the modified language for
Stipulation No. 8.
Applicant Presentation:
Nick Wood, representative with Snell & Wilmer, LLP, introduced himself and the
development team, and displayed other projects that the developer has built in Phoenix
and Scottsdale. Mr. Wood discussed the surrounding context of the site. Mr. Wood
stated that the existing wash on the site appeared small, but it would not be small
anymore once Rawhide Wash was built. Mr. Wood stated that the wash corridor would
be 90 feet wide. Mr. Wood stated that the Committee had previously asked when this
project was last presented to the Committee if the trails along the wash could be
extended to the north under the freeway. Mr. Wood stated that they looked into it and
found that the culvert under the freeway was not tall enough for trails to pass through.
Mr. Wood displayed the existing and proposed General Plan Land Use Map designation
and zoning. Mr. Wood displayed and discussed the conceptual site plan and landscape
plan, noting that due to the size of the wash, two bridges would need to be constructed.
Mr. Wood discussed the improvements of Mayo Boulevard, proposed ingress and
egress to and from the site, and the circulation plan. Mr. Wood emphasized that the
main entrance to the site would be from 66th Street, noting that this was the reason the
main signage would be at that corner. Mr. Wood stated that the site would be split up
into four quadrants. Mr. Wood discussed the proposed development standards. Mr.
Wood noted that there would be an enhanced corner feature at the corner of 66th Street
and Mayo Boulevard, and that there would be a building stepdown along Mayo
Boulevard for Parcel D (Phase 5). Mr. Wood shared the renderings, noting the
enhanced landscaping, Mayo Boulevard improvements, and that the wash would be
preserved in an undisturbed, natural state. Mr. Wood stated that they are in agreeance
with the stipulations and would continue working with staff on the sign at the corner of
66th Street and Mayo Boulevard.
Questions from Committee:
Committee Member Michelle Santoro asked if there was a reason that the General
Plan Amendment included commercial, but the Planned Unit Development (PUD) did
not. Committee Member Santoro noted that when this project was last presented to the
Committee, a hotel was included, which was removed. Mr. Wood responded that the
hotel and commercial uses were removed from the PUD since the property at the
southeast corner of Mayo Boulevard and 64th Street would have a hotel and
commercial uses. Committee Member Santoro stated that the maximum lot coverage
requested of 75 percent was much higher than 50 percent lot coverage, which is typical
of the R-3 and R-3A zoning districts. Committee Member Santoro asked what the
current site plan showed for lot coverage. Mr. Wood responded that it was a conceptual
site plan that was likely under 75 percent lot coverage, but 75 percent allowed some
flexibility. Committee Member Santoro stated that the proposed development standard
for open space was five percent, which is the standard for multifamily residential
development. Committee Member Santoro asked what the site plan showed for open
space calculations, noting that more than five percent open space should be codified.
Mr. Wood responded that the site plan was over five percent of open space. Committee

Desert View Village Planning Committee
Meeting Summary
GPA-DSTV-1-24-2 – Recommendation
Member Santoro commended the right-in right-out along 64th Street, noting that it would
help to reduce traffic congestion at the 64th Street and Mayo Boulevard intersection.
Committee Member Santoro expressed concerns with traffic congestion along Mayo
Boulevard as the roadway transitions to one lane west of 64th Street. Committee
Member Santoro asked if there was timing for the expansion of Mayo Boulevard west of
64th Street. Mr. Wood responded that they have spent a lot of time with the Street
Transportation Department since the beginning of this application, which resulted in
three entries into the site to address the traffic volume in the area.
Committee Member Rick Nowell expressed concerns with landscaping not being
replaced when it dies or is taken out by storms. Committee Member Nowell asked if a
stipulation could be added to ensure that the landscaping would be maintained and
replaced in accordance with the PUD landscape standards for the life of the project. Mr.
Wood responded that it would be difficult for staff to enforce this kind of stipulation. Mr.
Wood stated that high-end multifamily residential developers do a good job of taking
care of their landscaping because of their residents. Committee Member Nowell asked if
there would be a bicycle lane along Mayo Boulevard. Mr. Wood responded affirmatively.
Committee Member Jill Bunnell asked if there was an existing traffic signal at the
intersection of 66th Street and Mayo Boulevard. Mr. Wood responded affirmatively.
Committee Member Gary Kirkilas asked if the Committee should entertain a motion to
add stipulations related to water conservation, or if the applicant would be willing to be
committed to doing them. Mr. Wood responded that the developer had gave his word to
commit to water conservation measures.
Vice Chair Louis Lagrave stated that he liked the project. Vice Chair Lagrave echoed
concerns with traffic congestion as Mayo Boulevard transitions to one lane west of 64th
Street. Mr. Wood responded that the hope was that many of the residents would work
at the Mayo Clinic Hospital or close by. Mr. Wood stated that the traffic engineers would
know much more about the traffic volume and traffic flow. Mr. Wood added that the
proposed density was much less than many other multifamily residential projects they
have worked on.
Committee Member Bunnell recommended that the trails along the wash cross
underneath Mayo Boulevard for pedestrians to easily access the south side of Mayo
Boulevard, where the Mayo Clinic Hospital is located. Committee Member Bunnell
stated that the community needs to be walkable and there should be separation of
pedestrians from the major streets whenever possible.
Chair Steven Bowser asked when 64th Street to the south would be constructed and
who would be responsible for its construction. Mr. Wood responded that 64th Street
was under construction and the City of Phoenix would be constructing the west half of
64th Street south of Mayo Boulevard. Mr. Wood added that the adjacent developments
along the east side of 64th Street, south of Mayo Boulevard, would be constructing the
east half of 64th Street. Mr. Wood clarified that 64th Street would be constructed before
this development was fully built out, since it would be constructed in phases. Chair

stated that it would be done in phases, first extending to Reach 11. Chair Bowser asked
if the ultimate plan would be to extend 64th Street to Bell Road. Mr. Wood responded
affirmatively.
Committee Member Mark Warren asked if a culvert was planned to be installed under
Mayo Boulevard for the wash. Mr. Wood responded affirmatively.

Committee Member Kirkilas asked about maintaining the wash in a natural state. Mr.
Wood stated the channelized wash would be in a natural state.
Committee Member Santoro asked if the 90-foot height limit is proposed for the entire
site. Mr. Wood noted that the height limit allows flexibility in the future, although nothing
shown on their current plans is that tall. Ms. Santoro asked about issues caused by
narrower right-of-way on Mayo Boulevard west of 64th Street. Mr. Wood provided a
description of the proposed condition and noted that the Street Transportation
Department will require certain improvements to handle the traffic as new development

Meeting Summary
GPA-DSTV-1-24-2 – Information Only
is added to the area. Dawn Cartier with CivTech provided additional context to
demonstrate that this development will not create traffic congestion.
Vice Chair Lagrave asked if there is a traffic signal at 66th Street. Mr. Wood replied
that there is, and it would remain.
Committee Member Carlucci asked how many units would need to be added to start
to create a traffic problem. Ms. Cartier replied that the analysis is done based on the
proposal. Mr. Carlucci asked if the 1,200-unit limit was to avoid traffic impacts. Ms.
Cartier replied that the site could probably handle more units.
Committee Member Kirkilas asked about the trails shown on the map and any
setbacks from the trails. Mr. Wood clarified that the adjacent trails are not part of Reach
11 but link to it to the south. Noel Griemsmann with Snell & Wilmer, LLC noted that the
trails would be 10-foot-wide paths along the sidewalk.
Committee Member Younger asked if there was consideration for reducing the height
because of the neighbors across the street. Mr. Griemsmann described the height step
down requirements proposed in the PUD. Mr. Wood stated that the distance from the
nearest house is about a football field in length and that the height may not be 90 feet
depending on the final design.
Committee Member Nowell asked about the material for the trails. Kevin Ransil with
JLB Partners stated that the trails would be compacted gravel.
Committee Member Carlucci asked for the rationale for limiting the development to
1,200 units and if it’s a missed opportunity. Mr. Ransil stated that the density is based
on the R-3A density and meets the needs of the developer.
Committee Member Nowell asked about the height represented in the renderings. Mr.
Wood replied that it was 70 feet.
Committee Member Kollar asked about the review of the TIA (Traffic Impact Analysis)
by the Street Transportation Department. Mr. Wood stated that the City bases their
stipulations on the review of the TIA.
Committee Member Bunnell asked about parking, citing parking issues at a nearby
development in Scottsdale. Mr. Wood provided a description of parking provided for
each proposed building.
Committee Member Younger asked about charging stations. Mr. Wood replied that
they would be provided.
Chair Bowser asked about the future connection on 64th Street to Bell Road. Mr.
Wood replied that it was included in the Mayo Clinic development agreement. Chair
Bowser stated that there could be opportunities with the water reclamation plant.

Paradise Ridge, Planned Community District
Z-87-D-03-2
Planning Commission Approved Stipulations from May 1, 2025:
1. An updated Development Narrative for the 64th & Mayo PUD reflecting the
changes approved through this request shall be submitted to the Planning and
Development Department within 30 days of City Council approval of this request.
The updated Development Narrative shall be consistent with the Development
Narrative date stamped March 13, 2025, as modified by the following stipulations:
a. Front cover: Revise the submittal date information to add the following: City
Council adopted: [Add adoption date].
b. Page 22, Section F. Signs: Replace the following language after the first
paragraph as listed below:
In addition to base signage, given (i) the unique site access to the property
(with main access to all four development quadrants at 66th street), (ii) the
importance of clear identification for visitors as well as modern delivery
services (goods, food deliver, car share, etc.), and (iii) due to the signage
context along the north side of Mayo Blvd, the following project-specific
Marquee Main Entry Sign is permitted. This marquee sign will be designed
in a manner that does not exceed the standards outlined below.
Marquee Main Entry Sign
• One (1) Marquee Main Entry Sign for the overall PUD shall be
permitted at 66th and Mayo Blvd, in general conformance with the
location shown in Illustration C below.
• The marquee sign shall be no taller than 18 feet in height.
• The total signage area shall be no greater than 100 square feet per
side.
• The sign shall be generally consistent with the design shown in
Exhibit 8, inclusive of materials and colors as listed therein.
This Marquee Main Entry Sign is an important feature of this PUD as to its
branding due to there being four development units, two of which are
“hidden” by the units along Mayo Blvd. To address this, at the main
entrance to the development (northwest corner of 66th Street and Mayo
Boulevard), the Marquee Main Entry Sign will serve as the primary
monument sign for the entirety of this master-planned community. This
sign will provide sufficient space to display the four (4) distinct multifamily
developments planned for the project, each with its own branding, logo and
name. The scale and placement of the proposed sign will enhance visibility
of the key access point to the development from Mayo Boulevard,
improving wayfinding and fostering community recognition, while focusing
traffic to/from the site to this signalized intersection. The 18-foot sign is
proportionate to the project’s scale and is consistent with the cohesive
design standards of this PUD, offering a high-quality visual identity while
accommodating individual branding for each of the four development
parcels. It is also of similar size and placement to other signs found along
the north side of the Mayo Blvd corridor, providing a visual connection to
the larger neighborhood of residential and commercial development from
the City limits to 64th Street.
Rather than installing a number of ground signs, the Marquee Main Entry
Sign achieves a visual environment superior to that which can be achieved
via adherence to the base sign ordinance standards through its
contemporary design which is complementary and consistent with the
modern architectural style as provided for within this PUD. Crafted from
durable materials and incorporating complementary colors, the sign will
convey a sense of quality and permanence. Consolidating individual
community signs to a singular sign at the project’s “front door” enhances
design consistency and supports the overall vision for the community as
one cohesive whole. Strategically positioned at the southeast corner of the
property, the sign’s height, size, and location in an area of enhanced
landscaping will create a distinct "front door" to the community. The overall
design, location and treatment of the sign will contribute to a sense of
place and grandeur, serving not only as an entry marker for residents and
visitors, but also as a defining and attractive visual feature for those
traveling through the area.

as an exhibit to the Planning Commission Back Up Memo dated May 1,
2025.
d. Page 54, Exhibit 8: Replace the exhibit with the image attached as an

CONNECT PEOPLE & PLACES CORE VALUE; OPPORTUNITY SITES; LAND USE
PRINCIPLE: Support reasonable levels of increased intensity, respectful of local
conditions and surrounding neighborhoods.
The proposal for additional multifamily residential development is appropriate for this
location on two arterial streets and a freeway, and the proposed PUD proposes
development standards to prevent negative impacts on the adjacent residential
properties.
CELEBRATE OUR DIVERSE COMMUNITIES & NEIGHBORHOODS CORE VALUE;
DIVERSE NEIGHBORHOODS; LAND USE PRINCIPLE: Communities should
consist of a mix of land uses to provide housing, shopping, dining and
recreational options for residents.
The proposal will contribute to the mix of uses in the area by providing new multifamily
residential use in proximity to existing and planned commercial areas.
BUILD THE SUSTAINABLE DESERT CITY CORE VALUE; TREES & SHADE;
DESIGN PRINCIPLE: Integrate trees and shade into the design of new
development and redevelopment projects throughout Phoenix.
The proposed PUD sets forth development standards that require enhanced
landscaping and shade, including detached sidewalks and minimum shade
requirements for sidewalks and parking areas. This will help to provide shade for
pedestrians and bicyclists in and around the community and to mitigate the urban heat
island effect by covering hard surfaces, thus cooling the micro-climate around the
vicinity.

Background/Issues/Analysis
SUBJECT SITE
1. This request is to rezone a 51.37-acre site located at the northeast corner of 64th
Street and Mayo Boulevard from S-1 (Approved CP/BP PCD) (Ranch or Farm
Residence, Approved Commerce Park District, Business Park Option, Planned
Community District), S-1 (Approved R-3A PCD) (Ranch or Farm Residence,
Approved Multifamily Residence District, Planned Community District), and S-1
(Ranch or Farm Residence) to PUD PCD (Planned Unit Development, Planned
Community District) for a Major Amendment to the Paradise Ridge PCD to allow
multifamily and single-family attached residential.
GENERAL PLAN LAND USE MAP DESIGNATION
2. The subject site is designated as
Commercial / Commerce/Business Park
and Residential 5 to 10 dwelling units per
acre on the General Plan Land Use Map.
To the south and east of the site is
designated as Residential 5 to 10
dwelling units per acre. To the north is
designated Transportation. To the west is
designated as Commercial /
Commerce/Business Park. The applicant
is proposing a minor General Plan
Amendment (GPA-DSTV-1-24-2) to
change the designation of the subject site
to Commercial / Residential 15+ dwelling
units per acre. The uses allowed in the
proposed PUD are consistent with the
proposed General Plan Land Use Map General Plan Land Use Map, Source:

SURROUNDING LAND USES AND ZONING
3. To the east is multifamily residential
zoned R-3A PCD. To the south, across
Mayo Boulevard, is vacant land and
single-family residential zoned S-1
(Approved CP/BP) and R-3A PCD. To
the west, across 64th Street, is vacant
land zoned CP/BP DRSP (Commerce
Park District, Business Park Option,
Desert Ridge Specific Plan). To the
north, across the Loop 101 Freeway, is Zoning Aerial Map, Source: Planning and

PARADISE RIDGE PCD
4. The Paradise Ridge PCD, generally bounded by Scottsdale Road to the east, 64th
Street to the west, Pinnacle Peak Road to the north, and the CAP canal to the
south, was initially established in 1994. The subject site was zoned R-2 (Multifamily
Residence District) PCD and R1-6 (Single-Family Residence District) PCD in the
original PCD approval. In 2003, a Major Amendment to the Paradise Ridge PCD
was approved that rezoned a significant portion of the southern part of the PCD
area, changing the subject site to CP/BP PCD and R-3A PCD. These zoning
designations remain on the subject site today.
5. Desert Ridge/Kierland Major Employment Center
The subject site is located within the City
of Phoenix-designated Desert
Ridge/Kierland Major Employment
Center. This employment corridor along
the Loop 101 Freeway includes corporate
offices, healthcare facilities, and regional
retail centers in the Desert Ridge,
Paradise Ridge, and Kierland areas. The
proposed PUD allows for the creation of
housing opportunities for people to live in
close proximity to significant employment
options.

PROPOSAL
6. The proposal was developed utilizing the PUD zoning district. The Planned Unit
Development (PUD) is intended to create a built environment that is superior to that
produced by conventional zoning districts and design guidelines. Using a
collaborative and comprehensive approach, an applicant authors and proposes
standards and guidelines that are tailored to the context of a site on a case by case
basis. Where the PUD Development Narrative is silent on a requirement, the
applicable Zoning Ordinance provisions will be applied.
Staff Report: Z-87-D-03-2
March 21, 2025
7. The PUD proposes four multifamily
residential developments to be
constructed on four separate parcels, as
shown in the PUD Development Parcel
Map. The existing north-south wash
through the site would remain and would
include a trail along it, which would
facilitate pedestrian connectivity between
the four parcels.
PUD Development Parcel Map, Source:
Applicant’s PUD Narrative
8. Land Use
The proposed development narrative allows multifamily and single-family attached
residential uses, as well as associated accessory uses.
9. Development Standards
The table below summarizes the key development standards set forth in the
narrative, which are most closely analogous to the R-3A district. The density
allowed in the proposed PUD is more than the density of 23.1 dwelling units per
acre allowed in the R-3A district, and the proposed PUD allows greater height and
lot coverage and smaller building setbacks than would be required in the R-3A
district. The proposed parking matches the zoning requirement. Standards for
shade and bicycle parking in the PUD exceed zoning ordinance standards.
Standard PUD Proposed
Maximum Building 90 feet; 38 feet for single-family attached; 65 feet within
Height 40 feet of the south property line
Maximum Density 1,400 dwelling units (27.25 dwelling units per acre)
Maximum Lot 75 percent
Coverage
Minimum Perimeter North (Loop 101): 15 feet
Building Setbacks 64th Street: 15 feet
Mayo Boulevard: 20 feet
Staff Report: Z-87-D-03-2
March 21, 2025
66th Street: 15 feet
East (not adjacent to street): 15 feet
Minimum Open Space 5 percent
Vehicular Parking Per Section 702
Bicycle Parking 0.25 spaces per required vehicle parking space
Shade Public sidewalks and internal walkways: 75 percent
minimum; Common open space areas: 50 percent
minimum; Surface parking lots: 25 percent minimum
The proposed PUD includes a provision in the Signs section that allows for a
Marquee Sign that exceeds zoning standards. Staff recommends removing that
allowance, per Stipulation No. 1.b, as a variance application along with a
Comprehensive Sign Plan application would be the appropriate route to achieve
such a sign.
Because the subject site is located within the Paradise Ridge PCD, staff
recommends including relevant PCD stipulations that require Master Plans to be
submitted for any development, right-of-way improvements to be subject to a
Master Street Plan, and waster and wastewater be subject to Master Plan
requirements. These are addressed in Stipulation Nos. 14 through 16.
10. Landscape Standards
The PUD sets forth standards for perimeter landscape setbacks and landscaping
within adjacent rights-of-way. The table below summarizes the key landscape
standards. The landscape setbacks proposed in the PUD are less than would be
required in an R-3A district, except along the east, where the development is not
adjacent to a street. The streetscape and all the planting standards exceed the
requirements of the R-3A district.
Standard PUD Proposed
Minimum Landscape All perimeters: 10 feet
Setbacks All interior: 0 feet
Planting Standards Minimum 2-inch caliper trees, planted 20 feet on center;
(Perimeter Landscape five 5-gallon shrubs per tree
Setbacks)
Planting Standards ADOT right-of-way: as approved by ADOT
(Right-of-way) All others: Minimum 2-inch caliper trees, planted 25 feet
on center, to achieve 75% sidewalk shade.
Staff Report: Z-87-D-03-2
March 21, 2025
Streetscape 64th Street: 10-foot-wide detached sidewalk, 5-foot-wide
planting area between back of curb and sidewalk
64th Street (adjacent to ADOT right-of-way): 6-foot-wide
detached sidewalk, 10-foot-wide planting area between
back of curb and sidewalk, or as approved by ADOT
66th Street: 5-foot-wide detached sidewalk, 5-foot-wide
planting area between back of curb and sidewalk
Mayo Boulevard: 6-foot-wide detached sidewalk, 10-
foot-wide planting area between back of curb and
sidewalk
11. Fences and Walls
The PUD proposes compliance with Zoning Ordinance standards for fences and
walls with two exceptions:
• The north perimeter shall be permitted a wall with a maximum of eight feet to
provide adequate screening between the project and the Loop 101 freeway.
• The east and south perimeters shall be permitted retaining walls with a
maximum height of five feet in the locations shown in Exhibit 7 of the PUD
Narrative.
12. Lighting
The PUD proposes compliance with Zoning Ordinance standards related to lighting
with additional lighting requirements as follows:
• Pedestrian lighting along private and public sidewalks to comply with
portions of the Walkable Urban Code related to adequate and consistent
illumination along walkways, in addition to a maximum height of 15 feet for
light fixtures.
• Along the wash corridor pedestrian trail, decorative lighting shall be provided
45 feet on center with a maximum height of 15 feet.
13. Design Guidelines
The PUD proposes design guidelines that enhance the appearance and
functionality of the buildings, open space, and amenities on-site. Buildings will use a
color palette that complements the desert landscape and will provide a variety of
materials on each building façade. Buildings will not have blank walls exceeding 50
feet in length, and the wash corridor will have lighting and amenity requirements.
The landscape design guidelines promote a uniform design throughout the
development and include the use of milkweed other native nectar species to
support the monarch butterfly population.

14. Outer Loop Freeway Specific Plan
In May 1996, the Phoenix City Council adopted the Outer Loop Freeway Specific
Plan, which aims to retain the value of the immediate surrounding properties along
the Loop 101 freeway by mitigating the compatibility between the freeway and the
residential neighborhoods through which it passes. The subject site is located in
Segment 7 of the Outer Loop Freeway Specific Plan. The proposed rezoning meets
the intent of many of the elements of the plan. Segment 7 does not include any
specific recommendations regarding land use or noise mitigation. However, the
proposal includes an eight-foot-heigh CMU wall between the development and the
freeway, which is consistent with the standard noise mitigation proposed in other
segments.
15. State Route 51 and Loop 101 Scenic Corridor Policy Plan
On June 22, 2011, the Phoenix City Council adopted the State Route 51 and Loop
101 Scenic Corridor Policy Plan. The scenic corridor was established due to public
concern in regards to outdoor uses with significant visual impacts, such as outdoor
storage and off-premise advertising structures along portions of the State Route 51
and Loop 101 within the northeast Phoenix area. The plan’s recommendations
include not supporting requests for General Plan Amendments for Industrial land
use designation and not supporting rezoning requests, variances, or use permits for
primary outdoor uses or off-premise advertising. The proposed PUD is consistent
with the plan, as it does not allow primary outdoor uses or off-premise advertising.
16. Complete Streets Guiding Principles
In 2014, the City of Phoenix City Council adopted Complete Streets Guiding
Principles. The principles are intended to promote improvements that provide an
accessible, safe, connected transportation system to include all modes, such as
bicycles, pedestrians, transit, and vehicles. To promote safety and connectivity for
all users, the PUD proposes standards for shaded, detached sidewalks along all
street frontages, pedestrian connections throughout the development, and bicycle
parking.
17. Comprehensive Bicycle Master Plan
The City of Phoenix adopted the Comprehensive Bicycle Master Plan in 2014 to
guide the development of its bikeway system and supportive infrastructure. The
Comprehensive Bicycle Master Plan supports options for both short- and long-term
bicycle parking as a means of promoting bicyclist traffic to a variety of destinations.
The PUD narrative incorporates requirements for bicycle parking to encourage
multi-modal transportation.
18. Tree and Shade Master Plan
The Tree and Shade Master Plan encourages treating the urban forest as
Staff Report: Z-87-D-03-2
March 21, 2025
infrastructure to ensure the trees are an integral part of the City’s planning and
development process. Sidewalks on the street frontages should be detached from
the curbs to allow trees to be planted on both sides of the sidewalk to provide
thermal comfort for pedestrians and to reduce the urban heat island effect. The
PUD narrative includes standards for shaded, detached sidewalks along all street
frontages and enhanced shading requirements for sidewalks and surface parking
lots, in addition to enhanced tree sizes within landscape areas.
19. Housing Phoenix Plan
In June 2020, the Phoenix City Council approved the Housing Phoenix Plan. This
Plan contains policy initiatives for the development and preservation of housing with
a vision of creating a stronger and more vibrant Phoenix through increased housing
options for residents at all income levels and family sizes. Phoenix’s rapid
population growth and housing underproduction has led to a need for over 163,000
new housing units. Current shortages of housing supply relative to demand are a
primary reason why housing costs are increasing. The proposal supports the Plan’s
goal of preserving or creating 50,000 housing units by 2030 by contributing to a
variety housing types that will address the supply shortage at a more rapid pace
while using vacant land in a more sustainable fashion.
20. Monarch Butterfly
In April 2021, Mayor Kate Gallego signed the National Wildlife Federation's Mayor's
Monarch Pledge. This pledge commits the City to take action to support the
monarch butterfly population. In the United States, loss of milkweed habitat is a
major factor in the decline of the monarchs. Arizona has at least 29 species of
milkweed native to the state. Adult monarchs feed on the nectar of many flowers,
but they breed only where milkweeds are found. To support the monarch butterfly
population, the PUD narrative includes standards for the planting of milkweed
shrubs, or other native nectar plant species, on the subject site.
21. Transportation Electrification Action Plan
In June 2022, the Phoenix City Council approved the Transportation Electrification
Action Plan. The current market desire for the electrification of transportation is both
a national and global phenomenon, fueled by a desire for better air quality, a
reduction in carbon emissions, and a reduction in vehicle operating and
maintenance costs. Businesses, governments and the public are signaling strong
future demand for electric vehicles (EVs), and many automobile manufacturers
have declared plans for a transition to fully electric offerings within the coming
decade. This Plan contains policy initiatives to prepare the City for a future filled
with more EVs, charging infrastructure and e-mobility equity, and outlines a
roadmap for a five-step plan to prepare for the EV infrastructure needs of 280,000
EVs in Phoenix by 2030. One goal of the Plan to accelerate public adoption of
electric vehicles through workplace, business, and multifamily charging
infrastructure recommends a standard stipulation for rezoning cases to provide EV
Staff Report: Z-87-D-03-2
March 21, 2025
charging infrastructure. The PUD proposes a standard for electric vehicle parking,
charging and infrastructure.
22. Conservation Measures for New Development
In June 2023, the Phoenix City Council adopted the Conservation Measures for
New Development policy as part of a resolution addressing the future water
consumption of new development (Resolution 22129). This resolution addresses
the future water consumption of new development to support one of the City’s Five
Core Values in the General Plan which calls for Phoenix to - Build the Sustainable
Desert City. The Conservation Measures for New Development policy includes
direction to develop standards for consideration as stipulations for all rezoning
cases that will address best practices related to water usage in nine specific
categories. The PUD incorporates requirements for water conservation in the
sustainability section.
23. Zero Waste PHX
The City of Phoenix is committed to its waste diversion efforts and has set a goal to
become a zero waste city, as part of the city’s overall 2050 Environmental
Sustainability Goals. One of the ways Phoenix can achieve this is to improve and
expand its recycling and other waste diversion programs. Recycling services will be
provided for residents of the proposed development.

Applicant Presentation:
Nick Wood, representative with Snell & Wilmer, LLP, introduced himself and the
development team, and displayed other projects that the developer has built in Phoenix
and Scottsdale. Mr. Wood discussed the surrounding context of the site. Mr. Wood
stated that the existing wash on the site appeared small, but it would not be small
anymore once Rawhide Wash was built. Mr. Wood stated that the wash corridor would
be 90 feet wide. Mr. Wood stated that the Committee had previously asked when this
project was last presented to the Committee if the trails along the wash could be
extended to the north under the freeway. Mr. Wood stated that they looked into it and
found that the culvert under the freeway was not tall enough for trails to pass through.
Mr. Wood displayed the existing and proposed General Plan Land Use Map designation
and zoning. Mr. Wood displayed and discussed the conceptual site plan and landscape
plan, noting that due to the size of the wash, two bridges would need to be constructed.
Mr. Wood discussed the improvements of Mayo Boulevard, proposed ingress and
egress to and from the site, and the circulation plan. Mr. Wood emphasized that the
main entrance to the site would be from 66th Street, noting that this was the reason the
main signage would be at that corner. Mr. Wood stated that the site would be split up
into four quadrants. Mr. Wood discussed the proposed development standards. Mr.
Wood noted that there would be an enhanced corner feature at the corner of 66th Street
and Mayo Boulevard, and that there would be a building stepdown along Mayo
Boulevard for Parcel D (Phase 5). Mr. Wood shared the renderings, noting the
enhanced landscaping, Mayo Boulevard improvements, and that the wash would be
preserved in an undisturbed, natural state. Mr. Wood stated that they are in agreeance
with the stipulations and would continue working with staff on the sign at the corner of
66th Street and Mayo Boulevard.
Questions from Committee:
Committee Member Michelle Santoro asked if there was a reason that the General
Plan Amendment included commercial, but the Planned Unit Development (PUD) did
not. Committee Member Santoro noted that when this project was last presented to the
Committee, a hotel was included, which was removed. Mr. Wood responded that the
hotel and commercial uses were removed from the PUD since the property at the
southeast corner of Mayo Boulevard and 64th Street would have a hotel and
commercial uses. Committee Member Santoro stated that the maximum lot coverage
requested of 75 percent was much higher than 50 percent lot coverage, which is typical
of the R-3 and R-3A zoning districts. Committee Member Santoro asked what the
current site plan showed for lot coverage. Mr. Wood responded that it was a conceptual
site plan that was likely under 75 percent lot coverage, but 75 percent allowed some
flexibility. Committee Member Santoro stated that the proposed development standard
for open space was five percent, which is the standard for multifamily residential
development. Committee Member Santoro asked what the site plan showed for open

Desert View Village Planning Committee
Meeting Summary
Z-87-D-03-2 – Recommendation
space calculations, noting that more than five percent open space should be codified.
Mr. Wood responded that the site plan was over five percent of open space. Committee
Member Santoro commended the right-in right-out along 64th Street, noting that it would
help to reduce traffic congestion at the 64th Street and Mayo Boulevard intersection.
Committee Member Santoro expressed concerns with traffic congestion along Mayo
Boulevard as the roadway transitions to one lane west of 64th Street. Committee
Member Santoro asked if there was timing for the expansion of Mayo Boulevard west of
64th Street. Mr. Wood responded that they have spent a lot of time with the Street
Transportation Department since the beginning of this application, which resulted in
three entries into the site to address the traffic volume in the area.
Committee Member Rick Nowell expressed concerns with landscaping not being
replaced when it dies or is taken out by storms. Committee Member Nowell asked if a
stipulation could be added to ensure that the landscaping would be maintained and
replaced in accordance with the PUD landscape standards for the life of the project. Mr.
Wood responded that it would be difficult for staff to enforce this kind of stipulation. Mr.
Wood stated that high-end multifamily residential developers do a good job of taking
care of their landscaping because of their residents. Committee Member Nowell asked if
there would be a bicycle lane along Mayo Boulevard. Mr. Wood responded affirmatively.
Committee Member Jill Bunnell asked if there was an existing traffic signal at the
intersection of 66th Street and Mayo Boulevard. Mr. Wood responded affirmatively.
Committee Member Gary Kirkilas asked if the Committee should entertain a motion to
add stipulations related to water conservation, or if the applicant would be willing to be
committed to doing them. Mr. Wood responded that the developer had gave his word to
commit to water conservation measures.
Vice Chair Louis Lagrave stated that he liked the project. Vice Chair Lagrave echoed
concerns with traffic congestion as Mayo Boulevard transitions to one lane west of 64th
Street. Mr. Wood responded that the hope was that many of the residents would work
at the Mayo Clinic Hospital or close by. Mr. Wood stated that the traffic engineers would
know much more about the traffic volume and traffic flow. Mr. Wood added that the
proposed density was much less than many other multifamily residential projects they
have worked on.
Committee Member Bunnell recommended that the trails along the wash cross
underneath Mayo Boulevard for pedestrians to easily access the south side of Mayo
Boulevard, where the Mayo Clinic Hospital is located. Committee Member Bunnell
stated that the community needs to be walkable and there should be separation of
pedestrians from the major streets whenever possible.
Chair Steven Bowser asked when 64th Street to the south would be constructed and
who would be responsible for its construction. Mr. Wood responded that 64th Street
was under construction and the City of Phoenix would be constructing the west half of
64th Street south of Mayo Boulevard. Mr. Wood added that the adjacent developments
along the east side of 64th Street, south of Mayo Boulevard, would be constructing the

east half of 64th Street. Mr. Wood clarified that 64th Street would be constructed before
this development was fully built out, since it would be constructed in phases. Chair
Bowser asked if the City of Phoenix would construct 64th Street to Bell Road. Mr. Wood
stated that it would be done in phases, first extending to Reach 11. Chair Bowser asked
if the ultimate plan would be to extend 64th Street to Bell Road. Mr. Wood responded
affirmatively.
Committee Member Mark Warren asked if a culvert was planned to be installed under
Mayo Boulevard for the wash. Mr. Wood responded affirmatively.

is added to the area. Dawn Cartier with CivTech provided additional context to
demonstrate that this development will not create traffic congestion.
Vice Chair Lagrave asked if there is a traffic signal at 66th Street. Mr. Wood replied
that there is, and it would remain.
Committee Member Carlucci asked how many units would need to be added to start
to create a traffic problem. Ms. Cartier replied that the analysis is done based on the
proposal. Mr. Carlucci asked if the 1,200-unit limit was to avoid traffic impacts. Ms.
Cartier replied that the site could probably handle more units.
Committee Member Kirkilas asked about the trails shown on the map and any
setbacks from the trails. Mr. Wood clarified that the adjacent trails are not part of Reach
11 but link to it to the south. Noel Griemsmann with Snell & Wilmer, LLC noted that the
trails would be 10-foot-wide paths along the sidewalk.
Committee Member Younger asked if there was consideration for reducing the height
because of the neighbors across the street. Mr. Griemsmann described the height step
down requirements proposed in the PUD. Mr. Wood stated that the distance from the
nearest house is about a football field in length and that the height may not be 90 feet
depending on the final design.
Committee Member Nowell asked about the material for the trails. Kevin Ransil with
JLB Partners stated that the trails would be compacted gravel.
Committee Member Carlucci asked for the rationale for limiting the development to
1,200 units and if it’s a missed opportunity. Mr. Ransil stated that the density is based
on the R-3A density and meets the needs of the developer.
Committee Member Nowell asked about the height represented in the renderings. Mr.
Wood replied that it was 70 feet.
Committee Member Kollar asked about the review of the TIA (Traffic Impact Analysis)
by the Street Transportation Department. Mr. Wood stated that the City bases their
stipulations on the review of the TIA.
Committee Member Bunnell asked about parking, citing parking issues at a nearby
development in Scottsdale. Mr. Wood provided a description of parking provided for
each proposed building.
Committee Member Younger asked about charging stations. Mr. Wood replied that
they would be provided.
Chair Bowser asked about the future connection on 64th Street to Bell Road. Mr.
Wood replied that it was included in the Mayo Clinic development agreement. Chair
Bowser stated that there could be opportunities with the water reclamation plant.

b. Page 22, Section F. Signs: Remove all language, except the first two
sentences REPLACE THE FOLLOWING LANGUAGE AFTER THE
FIRST PARAGRAPH AS LISTED BELOW:
IN ADDITION TO BASE SIGNAGE, GIVEN (I) THE UNIQUE SITE
ACCESS TO THE PROPERTY (WITH MAIN ACCESS TO ALL FOUR
DEVELOPMENT QUADRANTS AT 66TH STREET), (II) THE
IMPORTANCE OF CLEAR IDENTIFICATION FOR VISITORS AS WELL
AS MODERN DELIVERY SERVICES (GOODS, FOOD DELIVER, CAR
SHARE, ETC.), AND (III) DUE TO THE SIGNAGE CONTEXT ALONG
THE NORTH SIDE OF MAYO BLVD, THE FOLLOWING PROJECT-
SPECIFIC MARQUEE MAIN ENTRY SIGN IS PERMITTED. THIS
MARQUEE SIGN WILL BE DESIGNED IN A MANNER THAT DOES NOT
EXCEED THE STANDARDS OUTLINED BELOW.
MARQUEE MAIN ENTRY SIGN
• ONE (1) MARQUEE MAIN ENTRY SIGN FOR THE OVERALL PUD
SHALL BE PERMITTED AT 66TH AND MAYO BLVD, IN GENERAL
CONFORMANCE WITH THE LOCATION SHOWN IN ILLUSTRATION C
BELOW.
• THE MARQUEE SIGN SHALL BE NO TALLER THAN 18 FEET IN
HEIGHT.
• THE TOTAL SIGNAGE AREA SHALL BE NO GREATER THAN 100
SQUARE FEET PER SIDE.
• THE SIGN SHALL BE GENERALLY CONSISTENT WITH THE DESIGN
SHOWN IN EXHIBIT 8, INCLUSIVE OF MATERIALS AND COLORS AS
LISTED THEREIN.
THIS MARQUEE MAIN ENTRY SIGN IS AN IMPORTANT FEATURE OF
THIS PUD AS TO ITS BRANDING DUE TO THERE BEING FOUR
DEVELOPMENT UNITS, TWO OF WHICH ARE “HIDDEN” BY THE
UNITS ALONG MAYO BLVD. TO ADDRESS THIS, AT THE MAIN
ENTRANCE TO THE DEVELOPMENT (NORTHWEST CORNER OF
66TH STREET AND MAYO BOULEVARD), THE MARQUEE MAIN
ENTRY SIGN WILL SERVE AS THE PRIMARY MONUMENT SIGN FOR
THE ENTIRETY OF THIS MASTER-PLANNED COMMUNITY. THIS SIGN
WILL PROVIDE SUFFICIENT SPACE TO DISPLAY THE FOUR (4)
DISTINCT MULTIFAMILY DEVELOPMENTS PLANNED FOR THE
PROJECT, EACH WITH ITS OWN BRANDING, LOGO AND NAME. THE
SCALE AND PLACEMENT OF THE PROPOSED SIGN WILL ENHANCE
VISIBILITY OF THE KEY ACCESS POINT TO THE DEVELOPMENT
FROM MAYO BOULEVARD, IMPROVING WAYFINDING AND
FOSTERING COMMUNITY RECOGNITION, WHILE FOCUSING
TRAFFIC TO/FROM THE SITE TO THIS SIGNALIZED INTERSECTION.
THE 18-FOOT SIGN IS PROPORTIONATE TO THE PROJECT’S SCALE
AND IS CONSISTENT WITH THE COHESIVE DESIGN STANDARDS OF
THIS PUD, OFFERING A HIGH-QUALITY VISUAL IDENTITY WHILE

ACCOMMODATING INDIVIDUAL BRANDING FOR EACH OF THE
FOUR DEVELOPMENT PARCELS. IT IS ALSO OF SIMILAR SIZE AND
PLACEMENT TO OTHER SIGNS FOUND ALONG THE NORTH SIDE OF
THE MAYO BLVD CORRIDOR, PROVIDING A VISUAL CONNECTION
TO THE LARGER NEIGHBORHOOD OF RESIDENTIAL AND
COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT FROM THE CITY LIMITS TO 64TH
STREET.
RATHER THAN INSTALLING A NUMBER OF GROUND SIGNS, THE
MARQUEE MAIN ENTRY SIGN ACHIEVES A VISUAL ENVIRONMENT
SUPERIOR TO THAT WHICH CAN BE ACHIEVED VIA ADHERENCE
TO THE BASE SIGN ORDINANCE STANDARDS THROUGH ITS
CONTEMPORARY DESIGN WHICH IS COMPLEMENTARY AND
CONSISTENT WITH THE MODERN ARCHITECTURAL STYLE AS
PROVIDED FOR WITHIN THIS PUD. CRAFTED FROM DURABLE
MATERIALS AND INCORPORATING COMPLEMENTARY COLORS,
THE SIGN WILL CONVEY A SENSE OF QUALITY AND PERMANENCE.
CONSOLIDATING INDIVIDUAL COMMUNITY SIGNS TO A SINGULAR
SIGN AT THE PROJECT’S “FRONT DOOR” ENHANCES DESIGN
CONSISTENCY AND SUPPORTS THE OVERALL VISION FOR THE
COMMUNITY AS ONE COHESIVE WHOLE. STRATEGICALLY
POSITIONED AT THE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF THE PROPERTY,
THE SIGN’S HEIGHT, SIZE, AND LOCATION IN AN AREA OF
ENHANCED LANDSCAPING WILL CREATE A DISTINCT "FRONT
DOOR" TO THE COMMUNITY. THE OVERALL DESIGN, LOCATION
AND TREATMENT OF THE SIGN WILL CONTRIBUTE TO A SENSE OF
PLACE AND GRANDEUR, SERVING NOT ONLY AS AN ENTRY
MARKER FOR RESIDENTS AND VISITORS, BUT ALSO AS A
DEFINING AND ATTRACTIVE VISUAL FEATURE FOR THOSE
TRAVELING THROUGH THE AREA.

Item text
This report provides the City Council with information in response to a citizen petition
submitted by Mr. Kim Baker on May 21, 2025. The petition is on page seven of
Attachment A.
Summary
On May 21, 2025, Mr. Baker submitted a Citizen Petition that included four items.
Upon review by the Law Department, items one, three and four were determined to
qualify as a citizen petition and could be placed on a Council agenda because the
same three items had previously been submitted as a citizen petition on September
21, 2022, and at that time were determined to be a qualified petition.
Item two was determined to not qualify as a citizen petition as it does not fall within the
purview of the City Council and is not an item upon which the City Council can act.
Additionally, both the City Charter (Chapter III, Section 4) and City Code (Chapter 2,
Section 4) expressly prohibit the Council from directing the City Manager regarding
personnel and administrative matters. Therefore, this item is considered an information
request. In response to this information request, the Police Department responded
stating that Chief Sullivan announced he would be leaving the Police Department on
April 8, 2025, and did not have any knowledge of the Attorney General's decision on
the matter referenced in Mr. Baker's petition.
Background
During the Formal Meeting on August 31, 2022, Kim Baker submitted a petition, which
was determined by the Law Department to not qualify as a citizen petition. Mr. Baker
submitted a similar petition, which was determined to be a qualified petition, at the
Formal Council meeting on September 21, 2022, which requested “the City Council to
direct the City Manager's Office to investigate the full dereliction of duty by the Phoenix
Police Department concerning "Complaint Report #20210001645266, Bias Hate
Crime."" A staff response dated September 20, 2022, was included in the September
22, 2022 General Information Packet and emailed to Mr. Baker on September 23, 2022
(Attachment B ). This response outlines the timeline of events from October 2021 to
September 2022.
The qualified citizen petition from September 21, 2022, was considered by the City
Council on October 12, 2022 as Item 95 (Attachment C ). At that time, Police
Department staff indicated they had completed a thorough investigation and exhausted
all leads.
A few months later, during a Formal Meeting on April 5, 2023, Kim Baker submitted
another citizen petition regarding an Open Meeting Law complaint investigation related
to his prior citizen petition submitted on September 21, 2022, and considered by the
Council on October 12, 2022. This April 2023 petition was then considered by the
Council on May 3, 2023, as Item 130 (Attachment D ). The May 3, 2023 report noted
the Phoenix Police Department investigation had closed and Mr. Baker had been
notified. The reason for closing the investigation was there was insufficient evidence to
identify a suspect and the only evidence of a fingerprint on the letter belonged to Mr.
Baker. On April 24, 2023, Police staff informed Mr. Baker that his case had been
closed.
During the May 3, 2023, Formal City Council meeting, staff recommended the Council
take no further action on Mr. Baker's petition. This recommendation was approved by
the Council.
Recommendation
Staff recommends no further action be taken on Mr. Baker's petition from May 21,
2025.
