***ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (SEE ATTACHMENT)*** An Ordinance Amending
Contract Workers Heat Safety Ordinance G-7241 to Include Proposed Revisions
to Phoenix City Code Chapter 18, Article XI, Section 18-413(A) and 18-415
(Ordinance G-7483) - Citywide

This item requests a second amendment to Ordinance G-7241 to include proposed
revisions to Phoenix City Code (PCC) Chapter 18, Article XI, Section 18-413(A) and 18
-415.

Summary
On March 26, 2024, the City Council adopted Ordinance G-7241, amending language
to PCC Chapter 18, creating Article XI that requires City contractors whose employees
and contract workers perform work in an outdoor environment to develop and comply
with heat safety plans as outlined in the ordinance to mitigate and prevent heat-related
illnesses and injuries. Additionally, each contractor is required to maintain a written
heat safety plan on file and ensure that the plan is posted in a location accessible to
employees.

On July 2, 2025, the City Council amended Ordinance G-7241 to clarify posting
requirements for heat safety plans. The amendment specifies that heat safety plans
must be posted in both English and Spanish on a bulletin board located in the break
room. If a contractor does not have a break room, the plan must be placed in a
conspicuous location where employee notices are customarily displayed. Additionally,
all heat safety plans must include a contact number that employees and contract
workers can use to report or inquire about heat safety issues.

Proposed Second Amendment to Ordinance G 7241, PCC Chapter 18, Article XI,
Section 18-413(A) and 18-415
Staff recommend this second amendment to strengthen compliance and worker
protections as recommended by the Contract Workers Heat Safety Ordinance Advisory
Committee. The proposed changes include adding language to heat safety plans
stating that contractors will not retaliate against employees or contract workers who
report alleged heat safety violations or who exercise protections provided under Article
XI. In addition, beginning April 1, 2026, contractors will also be required to monitor and
maintain a monthly log verifying that all vehicles have properly functioning air



conditioning according to manufacturer specifications. This log must be made available
to the City upon request.

Lastly, contractors and subcontractors will be required to confirm their ability to comply
with Article XI in all bids, proposals, written quotes, contractual agreements, leases,
licenses or requests for qualifications with the City. Furthermore, when issuing any bid,
proposal, quote, or request related to a future City contract, departments must ask all
proposers whether they have ever been sanctioned under Phoenix City Code Section
18-414 for failure to comply with the provisions of Article XI.

A draft of the proposed amended ordinance is attached as Attachment A.

Concurrence/Previous Council Action
On March 26, 2024, the City Council approved Ordinance G 7241, revising Article I,
Section 18-2(A)(6) of the Phoenix City Code and adding Article XI to Chapter 18 of the
Phoenix City Code.

On July 2, 2025, the City Council approved a first amendment to Ordinance G 7241,
further revising Chapter 18, Article XI of Phoenix City Code.

MEMORANDUM

To: Kate Gallego, Mayor

Phoenix City Council Members

From: David M. Martin, President
Todd Wynn, Director of Governmental Affairs

Re: Revisions to Article XI Contractor Requirements for the Mitigation of Heat-Related
Illnesses and Injuries in the Workplace

Date: January 29, 2026

Thank you for allowing the Arizona Chapter of the Associated General Contractors of America,
Inc. (AZAGC) an opportunity to provide comments regarding the revised Contractor
Requirements for the Mitigation of Heat-Related Illnesses and Injuries in the Workplace.

AZAGC and its members support prac cal, enforceable heat safety prac ces and are commi ed
to protec ng workers in extreme heat condi ons. However, as dra ed, the proposed changes
would add significant new administra ve burdens and create ambiguity and procurement risk
for contractors and subcontractors performing City work.
Our first request is to delay your vote on this item un l the next council mee ng February 18,
2026 which will give AZAGC members an opportunity to meet with staff and other council
members to discuss our concerns.
If a delay in ac on is not achievable, then AZAGC is opposed to the proposed changes to Ar cle
XI City of Phoenix Contract Worker Heat Safety Ordinance in its en rety, for the reasons
outlined throughout this memorandum. While this document iden fies specific areas where
defini ons and enforcement mechanisms require clarifica on, those comments should not be
misconstrued as support for advancing the proposal. Rather, they are provided solely to
illustrate the depth of concern and the significant administra ve, legal, and procurement risks
the amendment would impose if pursued further. AZAGC members responded with the
following:

 “Manufacturer specifica ons” may be difficult to locate or apply, especially for older
equipment, leading to a me-consuming compliance exercise without a clear safety
benefit. Many manufacturers do not publish a clear pass/fail A/C performance standard
for older equipment.


Highway & Transportation  Federal & Heavy  Utility Infrastructure
Construction 90
 Monthly A/C log recordkeeping would be onerous and may require general contractors
to police subcontractor fleets and equipment, expanding administra ve scope beyond
current prac ce. The log requirement as unnecessary because operators already will not
tolerate non-func oning A/C in summer condi ons and because the ordinance already
requires func oning A/C. If the City chooses to advance the revised ordinance, specify
what the monthly log must contain and how it will be requested. Perhaps create a City-
issued template or minimum data elements (unit ID, date checked, checker, pass/fail,
correc ve ac on). Clarify whether logs are requested per project, per department, or for
the contractor’s en re fleet, and how confiden ality of non-City fleet informa on will be
handled.

 How will the City request, verify, and enforce logs on ac ve projects? What happens if a
City inspector observes a single piece of equipment with non-func oning A/C, yet there
are many on the project func oning properly?

 The ordinance takes one to the appeal process for a viola on/sanc ons, instead
members would like a more robust “opportunity to cure” process within the ordinance
itself. If the opportunity to cure fails, then begin the sanc on/viola on process. To this
point, we also suggest suggested a structured, graduated penalty approach (similar to
other City compliance programs) rather than automa c, broad disqualifica on.
Statewide Efforts Underway
Arizona already enforces heat-related hazards through ADOSH programs and general duty
obliga ons. The City should avoid duplica ve or conflic ng requirements and focus on clear
contract administra on mechanisms that do not create preemp on conflicts as state/federal
rules evolve.
AZAGC also believes it is important for the City to recognize that much of what is being pursued
through this proposed amendment is already being ac vely addressed at the state level through
the recommenda ons of the Governor’s Workplace Heat Safety Task Force and the a ached
comprehensive Heat Illness Preven on Plan framework recently released by ADOSH.
That Task Force, which included broad representa on from industry, labor, public health
experts, and state agencies, issued final statewide recommenda ons on December 31, 2025.
Those recommenda ons establish detailed expecta ons for employers, including the
requirement that all employers develop and maintain wri en Heat Illness Preven on Plans with
clear procedures for water access, shade, rest breaks, acclima za on, and training. The state
framework also provides defined standards for potable water availability, shaded cool-down
areas, preventa ve rest breaks without penalty, and formal acclima za on procedures for new
or unacclima zed workers.
In other words, Arizona is already moving forward with a unified, stakeholder-driven statewide
approach that directly addresses the same core elements of heat illness preven on that the City
is now seeking to expand through addi onal contrac ng requirements. Contractors across
Arizona are already preparing for compliance with this state-level model, which is expected to
guide enforcement and workplace standards moving forward.


Highway & Transportation  Federal & Heavy  Utility Infrastructure
Construction 91
Because of this, the proposed City amendments risk crea ng redundant and poten ally
conflic ng layers of regula on, adding administra ve and procurement burdens on contractors
who are already implemen ng heat safety programs aligned with ADOSH guidance. Rather than
crea ng new overlapping documenta on mandates or separate enforcement standards at the
municipal contrac ng level, AZAGC urges the City to focus on consistency with the statewide
framework to avoid duplica on, confusion, and unnecessary compliance costs.
AZAGC believes worker safety is best served through clear, enforceable, and uniform standards
across jurisdic ons — not through fragmented local requirements that replicate state efforts
already underway. We appreciate the City’s engagement and share the goal of protec ng
workers from heat-related illness and injury, however, without amendments and clarifica ons
AZAGC is opposed to the proposed changes to Revisions to Article XI Contractor Requirements
for the Mitigation of Heat-Related Illnesses and Injuries in the Workplace in its en rety.

Final Recommendations for Arizona Heat Illness Prevention

Written Heat Illness Prevention Plan

• All employers must develop, implement, and maintain a Heat Illness Prevention Plan. This plan
must include responsibilities, procedures for providing water and shade, employees’ rights to rest
and hydration, acclimatization steps, and how effective training will be delivered. Template Heat
Illness Prevention Plans will be available for download on ADOSH’s website.

Water

Definition - Water must be potable, cool, and easily accessible so workers can hydrate regularly
throughout the workday.

• Accessibility - Employees must have ready access to potable drinking water at no cost. Water
must be located as close as practicable and reasonable to where employees are working.

When water is not plumbed or continuously supplied, employers must provide enough water at
the start of the shift to meet a minimum of one quart per employee per hour for the entire shift or
may begin with a smaller amount if effective procedures are in place to replenish water as needed
throughout the shift.

• Cool & Clean - Water must be potable, free from dirt or contamination, cool (ideally 59°F), and it
must be stored in coolers or containers that are cleaned and maintained regularly.

• Hydration - Employees should be encouraged to drink water frequently, while avoiding excessive
intake. Workers may take brief “drink-in-place” hydration moments as needed, especially in high
heat conditions. Encouragement to hydrate should be framed to promote safety without creating
unintended liability or implying mandatory consumption levels.

Employers may provide urine-color hydration charts to help workers self-monitor hydration levels,
without requiring any personal medical disclosure.

Shade

Definition - Shade is any natural or constructed structure that blocks direct sunlight that allows the
body to cool down effectively.

• Adequacy - Adequate shade prevents shadows from being cast, does not trap heat, and may be
created by natural or artificial means, including functioning air-conditioned buildings or vehicles.
Shade must be large enough for those employees on break to sit in a natural posture and be open
to the air on at least three sides (or mechanically ventilated).

• Accessibility - Employees must have access to shade that is located as close as practicable and
reasonable to where employees are working.




Shade must be free of hazards.

• Encouragement - Workers should be encouraged to take cool-down rests in shaded areas, and
water should be available to support hydration.

Rest Breaks

Definition - Rest breaks allow workers to cool down, recover, and prevent heat-related illness.

• Location - Rest should occur in shaded areas that meet the definition provided.

• Intervals - Employees should be allowed, without penalty, to take a preventative cool-down rest in
the shade when they feel the need to do so to prevent overheating. Rest intervals should be
adjusted based on temperature, humidity, workload, personal protective equipment (PPE), and
acclimatization level.

New or unacclimatized workers may require longer or more frequent breaks.

• Encouragement - Employers should encourage and allow employees to take preventative cool-
down rest periods as necessary. Employers should consider rest breaks based upon heat exposure,
humidity, workload, PPE, and lack of air movement.

Acclimatization

Definition - The process where the body adapts to heat over several days, improving its ability to work
safely in hot conditions.

• Plan – Employers must develop and implement an acclimatization plan and procedures in writing.
Employers must choose between two options, either (A) or (B):

(A) NIOSH acclimatization plan option: Employers that choose not to develop their own
acclimatization plan must follow the acclimatization plan developed by the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention and NIOSH.

(B) Employer-designed acclimatization plan option: Employers who develop their own
acclimatization plan must integrate and implement the following factors into their plan:
o Acclimated and unacclimated workers;
o The effects of clothing and personal protective equipment on adding to the heat burden of
workers;
o Risk factors that put workers at a higher risk of heat-related illness;
o Re-acclimatizing workers as necessary.




Training

• Requirements - Effective training must be provided to each supervisory and non-supervisory
employee before the employee begins work that should reasonably be anticipated to result in
exposure to the risk of heat illness. Training must be provided in a language that employees can
understand.

Training must cover, at a minimum:
o Employer responsibilities and employee rights.
o Employer’s written procedures for heat illness prevention.
o Risk factors for heat illness, as well as the added burden of heat load on the body caused
by exertion, clothing, and personal protective equipment.
o Available monitoring tools such as the NIOSH Heat Stress App and the National Weather
Service HeatRisk Map.
o The different types of heat illness, the common signs and symptoms of heat illness, and
appropriate first aid and/or emergency responses to the different types of heat illness
o The importance of frequent consumption of small quantities of water.
o The concept, importance, and methods of acclimatization pursuant to the employer's
written plan.
o The importance of employees immediately reporting any signs or symptoms of heat
illness—either in themselves or in co-workers—directly to the employer or through their
supervisor.

• Employers must re-train employees and supervisors at least:
o Annually prior to exposure; and
o In the event of a serious heat-related illness resulting in hospitalization and / or fatality, the
employer should determine the likely cause and scope of event and retrain the employee
group that was exposed to the condition as appropriate for that event.

• Training records must be maintained by the employer.

Exemptions (Focused Compliance)

The following workplaces and operations are exempt from the recommendations.

• Incidental heat exposures where an employee is not required to perform work activities in heat
for more than 15 minutes in any sixty-minute period.

• All emergency operations that are directly involved in the protection of life or property, or the
restoration of essential services, such as evacuation, rescue, medical, structural firefighting, law
enforcement, utilities, and communications, when employees are engaged in those operations.

• Buildings and structures that have a mechanical ventilation system that keeps the heat index
below 80 degrees Fahrenheit.

meters are a critical part of the Fire Department's ability to identify dangerous
substances and mitigate those hazards to protect the public and the firefighters.

The City of Goodyear has offered to donate six Bascom Turner Gas Rangers, model
RGA-411/412 to the Phoenix Fire Department. These meters would support the
Hazardous Materials Program equipment cache. These meters assist technicians in
detecting methane/natural gas in order to help establish perimeters and locate the
source of a leak.

This request adheres to the Fire Department’s charitable donations process.

Financial Impact
There is no financial impact on the City.

Request to Apply for and Accept 100 Club of Arizona’s Safety Enhancement
Stipend Program (Ordinance S-52589) - Citywide

Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to allow the Police
Department to apply for and accept up to $70,000 from the 100 Club of Arizona's
Safety Enhancement Stipend program to fund police personal safety equipment.
Further request authorization for the City Treasurer to accept and for the City
Controller to disburse all funds related to this item.

Summary
The 100 Club of Arizona’s Safety Enhancement Stipend (SES) program was created in
2004 to provide assistance to public safety agencies for equipment to enhance the
safety of officers. The SES program allows agencies to obtain equipment and training
that is otherwise unavailable through other funding. The SES program allows agencies
to obtain crucial safety equipment to keep first responders safe.

Ballistic Vests for the Police Department
Ballistic vests are an integral piece of equipment for every patrol officer, particularly
those whose assignments focus on violent offender apprehension, like the Patrol
Division's Neighborhood Enforcement Teams. This critical piece of equipment ensures
that these officers have the best chance at surviving violent encounters with criminals
armed with high caliber weapons. The Department was awarded partial funding for
these efforts last year and this request will be to purchase additional vests for
additional officers. The total investment for this initiative is estimated at $70,000.

The grant application is due by March 31, 2026. If approved, the Police Department
will move forward with submitting the application.

Contract Term
Term requirements are provided at the time of award; however, all funds will be
expended by the Police Department within one year of award acceptance.

Financial Impact
There is no financial impact to the City of Phoenix.

Report

(CONTINUED FROM JANUARY 7, 2026) - Request Authorization to Enter Into a
Private Stormwater Pipe License with Envision Dobbins, LLC (Ordinance S-
52517) - District 7

Request to authorize the City Manager, or the City Manager's designee, to enter into a
license agreement with Envision Dobbins, LLC for the construction, operation, and
maintenance of a private stormwater pipe to be placed in the City’s right-of-way.

Summary
Private development is responsible for providing on-site retention to meet the 100-year
2-hour storm event, per City Code Chapter 32C and the City of Phoenix Storm Water
Policies and Standards Manual. During the developer's on-site construction, it was
discovered that the water table is higher in this area of the City. As a result, the
designed private underground retention system could not function, and an alternate
design was necessary. The limited size of the development parcel to provide surface
retention basins, and the inability to enter into a private agreement with adjacent
parcels to establish a shared retention system, forced the developer to seek an off-site
alternative method to capture and discharge stormwater. The developer obtained
approval from the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) to privately discharge
stormwater into an ADOT-controlled stormwater basin. The developer requests to
install 990 linear feet of private pipe in the right-of-way to convey onsite stormwater
from the subject property to the South Mountain Freeway ADOT basin.

In conformance with City Code Section 31-40, the agreement will include a clause to
indemnify and hold harmless the City of Phoenix against all liability, loss, and damage
that results from the installation, maintenance, and repair of any private facilities
related to this agreement.

Financial Impact
There is no financial impact to the City. Licensee will pay an annual fee based on the
linear footage.

Location
Generally, within the south half of Dobbins Road, located approximately 700 feet east
of 65th Avenue to the limits of the shared jurisdiction line between the City of Phoenix



and the ADOT (South Mountain Freeway).

boundaries of the City of Phoenix
designated Camelback Biltmore Major
Employment Center, which extends
generally from 20th Street on the west to
44th Street on the east and from
Campbell Avenue on the south to Lincoln
Drive on the north.

PROPOSAL
5. 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-44-25-6
October 27, 2025


6. The PUD proposes to redevelop the site with a new six-story mixed-use building
with 203 multifamily residential units and ground floor space for a restaurant and
offices.

7. Land Use
The proposed development narrative allows multifamily residential uses and uses
permitted within the C-2 zoning district, and includes a list of prohibited uses.

8. Development Standards
The table below summarizes the key development standards set forth in the
narrative, which are most analogous to the R-4 zoning district. The density allowed
in the proposed PUD is less than the density of 30.45 dwelling units per acre
allowed in the R-4 district. The proposed PUD allows greater height than permitted
in the R-4 district and requires greater setbacks, shading, and bicycle parking than
the R-4 district. The proposed parking and lot coverage matches the Zoning
Ordinance requirements.

Standard PUD Proposed
Maximum Building 66 feet, measured from finished grade (based on three
Height grade tiers)
Maximum Density 203 dwelling units (26.44 dwelling units per acre)
Maximum Lot 50 percent
Coverage
Minimum Perimeter North: 50 feet average; 45 feet minimum
Building Setbacks East: 25 feet average; 12 feet minimum
South (Arizona Biltmore Circle): 50 feet average; 15
feet minimum
West (24th Street): 25 feet average; 11 feet minimum
Minimum Open Space 5,000 square feet (Approximately 1.4 percent of gross
lot area)
Vehicular Parking Per Section 702, except offices: 1 space per 300
square feet
Bicycle Parking 0.25 spaces per residential unit; 1 space per 25
vehicular parking spaces for nonresidential uses
Shade Public sidewalks: 75 percent minimum; Common open
space areas and internal walkways: 50 percent
minimum; Surface parking lots: 25 percent minimum

The proposed PUD allows a maximum building height of 66 feet. Staff recommends
revising the maximum building height to incorporate a step down on the eastern
elevation of the building to 55 feet and 44 feet in portions of the building, as shown
in the Building Height Step Plan attached as an exhibit. Additionally, staff
recommend incorporating a minimum unit size of 1,500 square feet to match the
proposal from the applicant for large unit sizes. These are addressed in Stipulation



Staff Report: Z-44-25-6
October 27, 2025


Nos. 1.b through 1.d.

9. 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 exceed the requirements
of the R-4 district, except along the portion of the east property line with no
landscape setback requirement. The streetscape and all the planting standards
exceed the requirements of the R-4 district.

Standard PUD Proposed
Minimum Landscape North: 40 feet (average)
Setbacks East (adjacent to property line): 0 feet
East (adjacent to 25th Street): 25 feet average; 20 feet
minimum
South (Arizona Biltmore Circle): 15 feet average; 10 feet
minimum
West (24th Street): 25 feet average; 11 feet minimum
Planting Standards West and south: 50% minimum 2-inch caliper, 50%
(Perimeter Landscape minimum 3-inch caliper trees, planted 20 feet on center;
Setbacks) five 5-gallon shrubs per tree; 75% live groundcover

North and east: minimum 2-inch caliper trees, planted
25 feet on center; five 5-gallon shrubs per tree; 75% live
groundcover
Planting Standards 24th Street: Minimum 2 to 3-inch caliper trees, planted
(Right-of-way) 25 feet on center, to achieve 75% sidewalk shade; five
5-gallon shrubs per tree; 75% live groundcover
Streetscape 24th Street: 6-foot-wide detached sidewalk, 10-foot-wide
planting area between back of curb and sidewalk

10. Fences and Walls
Because of the sloping topography of the site, the PUD proposes requirements for
retaining walls that vary from Zoning Ordinance standards for fences and walls.
Retaining walls up to a height of 16 feet would be permitted for a maximum of 600
linear feet along the 24th Street side of the development.

11. Lighting
The PUD proposes compliance with Zoning Ordinance standards related to lighting
with additional lighting requirements that 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.




Staff Report: Z-44-25-6
October 27, 2025


12. 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
variety of materials on each building façade, including a minimum of 40 percent
glazing and a minimum of 80 percent of units having private balconies. Buildings
will not have blank walls exceeding 50 feet in length, and screening walls and
retaining walls will utilize architectural features consistent with or complimentary to
the building façade.

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.

AREA PLANS, OVERLAY DISTRICTS, AND INITIATIVES
13. 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 24th
Street, enhanced shade for all pedestrian walkways, and bicycle parking.

14. 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.

15. Shade Phoenix Plan
In November 2024, the Phoenix City Council adopted the Shade Phoenix Plan. The
Shade Phoenix Plan prioritizes increasing shade coverage throughout the City to
improve health and quality of life. Investing in shade can address the urban heat
island effect, clean the air, preserve Sonoran vegetation, and prevent health
complications related to prolonged exposure to heat. The Shade Phoenix Plan
provides numerous strategies to increase shade including expanding and
maintaining existing shade, strengthening tree code enforcement, and developing
shade stipulations in rezoning cases. The PUD narrative includes standards for
shaded, detached sidewalks along 24th Street and enhanced shading requirements
for sidewalks and surface parking lots, in addition to enhanced tree sizes within
landscape areas.




Staff Report: Z-44-25-6
October 27, 2025


16. 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 additional
housing units. 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.

17. 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.

18. Transportation Electrification Action Plan
In June 2022, the Phoenix City Council approved the Transportation Electrification
Action Plan. The current market desire for the electrification of transportation is both
a national and global phenomenon, fueled by a desire for better air quality, a
reduction in carbon emissions, and a reduction in vehicle operating and
maintenance costs. Businesses, governments and the public are signaling strong
future demand for electric vehicles (EVs), and many automobile manufacturers
have declared plans for a transition to fully electric offerings within the coming
decade. This Plan contains policy initiatives to prepare the City for a future filled
with more EVs, charging infrastructure and e-mobility equity, and outlines a
roadmap for a five-step plan to prepare for the EV infrastructure needs of 280,000
EVs in Phoenix by 2030. One goal of the Plan to accelerate public adoption of
electric vehicles through workplace, business, and multifamily charging
infrastructure recommends a standard stipulation for rezoning cases to provide EV
charging infrastructure. The PUD proposes standards for electric vehicle parking,
charging and infrastructure.

19. 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




Staff Report: Z-44-25-6
October 27, 2025


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
landscape design and sustainability sections.

20. 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. The project will
incorporate recycling as part of its waste management system.

COMMUNITY INPUT SUMMARY
21. At the time this staff report was written, staff has received 17 letters in opposition to
this request and two letters in support. Concerns include the proposed height and
density, the potential loss of views, and traffic impacts to the neighborhood.

INTERDEPARTMENTAL COMMENTS
22. The Street Transportation Department commented that mitigation improvements
shall be constructed as identified in the Traffic Impact Analysis, unused driveways
shall be replaced with sidewalk, curb, and gutter, and the developer shall construct
all streets within and adjacent to the development with all required improvements
and comply with ADA standards. These are addressed in Stipulation Nos. 2 through
4.

OTHER
23. The site has not been identified as being archaeologically sensitive. However, in the
event archaeological materials are encountered during construction, all ground
disturbing activities must cease within 33-feet of the discovery and the City of
Phoenix Archaeology Office must be notified immediately and allowed time to
properly assess the materials. This is addressed in Stipulation No. 5.

24. Staff has not received a completed form for the Waiver of Claims for Diminution in
Value of Property under Proposition 207 (A.R.S. 12-1131 et seq.), as required by
the rezoning application process. Therefore, a stipulation has been added to require
the form be completed and submitted prior to final site plan approval. This is
addressed in Stipulation No. 6.

25. Development and use of the site is subject to all applicable codes and ordinances.
Zoning approval does not negate other ordinance requirements. Other formal
actions such as, but not limited to, zoning adjustments and abandonments, may be
required.

Camelback East Village Planning Committee
Meeting Summary
Z-44-25-6
November 4, 2025

QUESTIONS FROM COMMITTEE
Committee Member Augusta asked about parking and if it is sufficient for the mix of
uses. Mr. Wood reviewed the parking requirements, noting the development will
provide significantly more parking than is required by the Zoning Ordinance.

Committee Member Guevar asked for clarification on the square footage of the units.
Mr. Wood stated that the Zoning Ordinance doesn’t distinguish between condos and
apartments, but the 1,500-square-foot minimum unit size will make condos more likely.

Committee Member Todd asked about the right of use for Arizona Biltmore Circle. Mr.
Wood stated that Arizona Biltmore Circle is not a public street and is owned by the
adjoining property owners, further noting that an easement allows for use of the street
by residents.

Committee Member Todd asked for clarification that the rooftop amenities will only be
located above the parking garage and if the building will rise to 8 stories. Mr. Wood
stated that amenities will only be located above the garage and reviewed the drawings
to indicate that the building is only 6 stories from the grade of any point on the property.

Committee Member Todd asked about how the building relates to the nearby owners
at the southeast corner of the site. Mr. Wood stated that the two closest owners are not
in opposition to this proposal.

Committee Member Sharaby asked if the development partners are in attendance at
this meeting. Mr. Wood stated that they are not in attendance because of the issues
they had at a previous public hearing. Chair Fischbach noted that it was his suggestion
to the applicant.

Committee Member Todd asked about the retaining wall. Mr. Wood noted that it was
necessary because of the slope of the property and water that runs north to south.

Committee Member Siegal asked about the proposed striping on Arizona Biltmore
Circle. Dawn Cartier with CivTech reviewed the proposed striping, noting that it likely
should have been done already based on the existing traffic volume. Ms. Siegal asked
about pedestrian improvements. Ms. Cartier reviewed the pedestrian improvements
related to the northbound right turn lane.

Committee Member Williams asked about the ground level view from one of the
angles shown in the presentation and whether the mountain view would be maintained.
Mr. Wood stated that the view in question would have the proposed building blocking
the view from the street level at the southwest corner of the site.

Committee Member Guevar asked about the height of the existing structure. Mr.
Wodd stated that he didn’t have the exact height. Mr. Guevar asked about the
alternative scenario if this rezoning is not approved and why they would build a medical
office at this location under the current zoning, rather than a smaller R-3 multifamily

development. Mr. Wood stated that the economics would work out better for a medical
office in that scenario and noted that at that density, the development would likely be
apartments, rather than condos.

Committee Member Augusta asked if the street striping could be included as a
stipulation. Mr. Grande noted that Stipulation No. 2 already included the striping since it
is part of the Traffic Impact Analysis.

PUBLIC COMMENTS
Timothy La Sota introduced himself and spoke in opposition to the proposal,
highlighting the long uninterrupted street frontage, the ground level elevations, and the
fact that a setback is typically required for this height.

Larry Cuculic introduced himself as the President and CEO of Best Western and spoke
in opposition to the proposal, referencing letters provided to the Committee from Best
Western leadership in opposition to the proposal and highlighting issues with the scale
of the proposal, including a loss of views from the Best Western office building.

Ellen Best-Laimit introduced herself and spoke in opposition to the proposal, stating
that the current view is preferred over the view that would be created by the proposed
development.

Gene Hechler introduced himself and spoke in opposition to the proposal, stating that
the proposed development doesn’t fit with the neighborhood and that it will create traffic
issues.

Wes McKeage introduced himself and spoke in opposition to the proposal, stating that
a beautiful location will be destroyed by the proposed development, also noting that the
traffic study was conducted on a Tuesday, which is when most of the Best Western
employees are working from home.

Rosemary Robinson introduced herself and spoke in opposition to the proposal,
stating that it is possible for the developer to go down in height and the developer
should listen to the community, adding that comparisons made to other developments
are not valid because it is comparing a suburban context to an urban one.

Richard Lund introduced himself and spoke in opposition to the proposal, stating that
the proposal will block existing views and cause a dangerous traffic situation on Arizona
Biltmore Circle.

Esther Battok introduced herself and spoke in opposition to the proposal, stating that
the homes are very close to this development, and that the parcel needs to be
redeveloped, but this proposal is too massive.

Camelback East Village Planning Committee
Meeting Summary
Z-44-25-6
November 4, 2025

Wayne Ziemer introduced himself and spoke in opposition to the proposal, stating that
the proposal is not compliant with the Phoenix General Plan, and that the developer
could make it work with the existing C-2 district.

Jerry Deutsch introduced himself and spoke in opposition to the proposal, stating that
he built a home in this neighborhood because of the openness, and the proposed
development would change that and is a result of greed.

Lynne Lagarde introduced herself and spoke in opposition to the proposal, stating
concerns about the scale of the building that is out of character with the neighborhood
where there are no other buildings of this height nearby, also noting that this is not
within a village core.

Heather Barilla introduced herself and spoke in support of the proposal, highlighting
that the area is growing as an employment area and needs more housing.

Kaylee Johannsen introduced herself and spoke in support of the proposal, noting that
the proposed development is respectful of the landscape.

Patricia Hawkins introduced herself and spoke in support of the proposal, stating that
she was opposed to the original proposal, but believes this corner deserves something
special.

Orianna Picklesimer introduced herself and spoke in support of the proposal, stating
there is a need for housing in this area with a lot of employment.

Taylor Schmidt introduced himself and spoke in support of the proposal, stating that
the Valley is growing and needs to go up in scale, adding that these projects provide
good jobs.

APPLICANT RESPONSE
Mr. Wood stated that many of the opposition letters are duplicates and that Best
Western originally was a partner in the previous proposal, which proposed similar
heights even closer to the Best Western office, further noting distances of property
owners from the proposed development and that views will not be blocked, and
clarifying that the building will only be 6 stories from any portion on the lot.

Committee Member Swart asked for clarification if the traffic study was conducted on a
Tuesday. Ms. Cartier replied with the traffic count requirements, noting that the traffic is
very minimal compared to the capacity of the street.

Committee Member Schmieder asked what date the count was done. Ms. Cartier
stated it was September 10, 2024.

Vice Chair Paceley stated Biltmore is a treasure, and JDM has done a fantastic job in
the area, noting that the proposed development will be an asset to the area.

DISCUSSION:
Committee Member Whitesell thanked the public for making comments and stated
that this plan doesn’t meet parts of the General Plan, noting that the site is outside of

and that we do protect scenic views.

in the future and is voting yes.

stipulations. Vote: 13-5.

Planning Commission Recommendation: Approval, per the Staff Memo dated January 7, 2026,
with additional stipulations, and with direction.

Motion Discussion:
Ms. Racelle Escolar reminded the Commission that the applicant requested additional
stipulations. She explained that staff did not have any concerns with the added Stipulation Nos.
1.e through 1.g, however she would recommend revised language for Stipulation No. 1.e to
state that, Page 12, D1: Development Standards, Row c. Building Setbacks: Delete all of the
average setbacks and change the south setback to 25 feet.

Ms. Racelle Escolar explained that staff did not agree with the requested stipulation modification
to replace the site plan date in Stipulation No. 2, since the revised site plan was just submitted
that day and staff has not had a chance to evaluate it. Additionally, staff could not agree with the
stipulation to require a driveway on 24th Street. The Street Transportation Department is
evaluating this request. Ms. Escolar recommended that should they approve the request, they
provide direction that the applicant work with staff to determine if Stipulation No. 2 can be
revised to reflect the updated plans, and to consider a stipulation to require a driveway on 24th
Street.

Commissioner Gorraiz made a MOTION to approve Z-44-25-6, per the Staff Memo dated
January 7, 2026, with additional stipulations (1.e through 1.g) as recommended by staff, and
with direction that the applicant work with staff to determine if Stipulation No. 2 can be revised to
reflect the updated plans, and to consider a stipulation to require a driveway on 24th Street.

Commissioner James SECONDED that motion.

Commissioner Matthews made a SUBSTITUTE MOTION to continue Z-44-25-6, to the February
5, 2026 Planning Commission Hearing, without fee.

Commissioner Jaramillo SECONDED the motion.

The SUBSTITUTE MOTION failed by a vote of 4-4 (Boyd, Gorraiz, Hu, James).

The original motion was entertained and is detailed below.

Motion details: Commissioner Gorraiz made a MOTION to approve Z-44-25-6, per the Staff
Memo dated January 7, 2026, with additional stipulations (1.e through 1.g) as recommended by

revised to reflect the updated plans, and to consider a stipulation to require a driveway on 24th
Street.

Maker: Gorraiz
Second: James
Vote: 5-3 (Busching, Jaramillo, Matthews)
Absent: Soronson
Opposition Present: Yes

Findings:

1. The proposal is consistent with the General Plan Land Use Map designation and the
character of the surrounding area.

2. The proposal will facilitate new commercial and multifamily residential development at an
appropriate location along a commercial corridor within a Major Employment Center,
contributing to the land use mix in the area.

3. The proposed PUD sets forth design and development standards that will enhance
connectivity in the immediate vicinity, including enhanced shade and detached
sidewalks.

Stipulations:

1. An updated Development Narrative for the 2400 Biltmore Residential 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
