I have the capability, reliability and qualifications to hold a liquor license because:
“At QuikTrip, we have a demonstrated record of our ability and commitment to act as a
reliable and capable retailer. I currently serve as the agent on more 100 liquor licenses
in Arizona for QuikTrip Stores. Since I began acting as the agent on QuikTrip liquor
licenses in Arizona, we have not received a single citation for a violation of liquor laws.
We ensure all store managers have current liquor training and maintain strict
standards to ensure all our employees comply with state laws. QuikTrip has proven
that it is a responsible operator and our record demonstrates that I - as an applicant -
and QuikTrip - as an organization - have the capability, reliability and qualifications to

“The public convenience requires and the best interest of the community will be
substantially served by the issuance of the requested liquor license because this
location will provide consumers in the immediate neighborhood competitively priced
market-style items at a location where they can purchase necessities (everything from
milk to Band-Aids) including extensive beverage offerings beyond beer and wine.
Allowing customers to purchase alcohol while shopping for fuel or other items,
including food, saves times, reduces road congestion, and the additional competition in
the area lowers prices and ensures a high level of services for customers. QuikTrip's
clean and modern design offers an experience consistent with the redevelopment of
this area and will provide an additional option for gasoline and convenience. The best
interest of the community will further be served because QuikTrip is a reliable operator
with a demonstrated ability to responsibility sell alcohol in its stores and it will provide
consumers in the area with more options and better pricing.”

Third-Party Assessment of Phoenix Police Department Demonstration and
Protest Response (Ordinance S-47415)

Request authorization for the City Manager, or his designee, to enter into a contract
with 21CP Solutions, LLC to provide a comprehensive and independent assessment of
the Phoenix Police Department’s (PPD) Tactical Response Unit's training and
response to First Amendment-related activities, including but not limited to
demonstrations and protests. The comprehensive and independent assessment will
also focus on the PPD's Field Training Officer program. The aggregate contract value
will not exceed $250,000. Further request the City Controller to disburse all funds
related to this item.

Summary
The Phoenix Police Department has an immediate and critical operational need to
conduct a comprehensive and independent review of the department's response to
First Amendment-related activities, including but not limited to protests and
demonstrations. An essential function of the Phoenix Police Department is to ensure
public safety while protecting the right to assemble and protest. Several recent
incidents have demonstrated gaps where the Phoenix Police Department can improve
its ability to perform this essential function. This is a challenge that has been identified
in numerous local police departments across the United States. As a result, local law
enforcement entities have sought to improve their responses to protests and
demonstrations by engaging with independent experts to conduct a comprehensive
review of practices and policies, actively solicit stakeholder feedback and community
input, and provide recommendations for improvement. Specific policies and
procedures that require an independent review include the Downtown Operations Unit
and the Tactical Response Unit's training and practices used for protests, public
demonstrations and critical incidents.

The Phoenix Police Department also has an immediate need for an independent
review to analyze the effectiveness of the Field Training Officer (FTO) program. This
analysis will include the selection process of FTO's, training, instruction, education as
well as policies and procedures of the FTO program.




Page 73

The goal of the third-party, independent review is to develop a detailed report of
findings and recommendations for a Corrective Action Plan (CAP) that addresses both
the Phoenix Police Department's response to First Amendment-related activities and
the FTO program.

Procurement Information
In accordance with Administrative Regulation 3.10, an alternative method of
competition was used in lieu of normal competition as a result of a Special
Circumstance Determination Memo citing the immediate and critical operational need
to conduct a comprehensive and independent review of the department's response to

Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to apply for the Bloomberg
Philanthropies 2021 Global Mayors Challenge. Further request to authorize the City
Treasurer accept all funds related to this item. If awarded, the City would receive $1
million in funding.

Summary
The Bloomberg Philanthropies 2021 Global Mayors Challenge invites cities across the
world to think big and uncover innovative solutions to today's most pressing problems.

The application deadline is March 21, 2021. In the spring, 50 Champion Cities will be
identified to test and refine their ideas. 2021 Mayors Challenge winners will be
announced later this year, with 15 cities being awarded $1 million to develop,
implement, scale and share their winning ideas.

In 2017, Phoenix was one of 35 Champion Cities (from 320 applicant cities) awarded
$100,000 to test and implement solutions to the most pressing issues facing cities.
Phoenix and its partners at Arizona State University continue to develop and
implement its solution to the threat of rising urban temperatures, HeatReadyPHX.

Phoenix is focusing the 2021 application on a solution to workforce development
challenges exacerbated by the pandemic. In the past year, the city has experienced an
increase of 311 percent in the number of dislocated workers who are ready to return to
the workforce. Employers are experiencing challenges connecting to these candidates,
who may lack access to transportation and technology. The interdepartmental team is
currently working with Bloomberg Philanthropies to identify and refine innovative
solutions that are unique, measurable and replicable in other cities.

Financial Impact
If awarded, the City would receive $1 million in funding.

description to be recorded with the Ordinance ("Easement Premises") and will be
granted to all public service corporations, agricultural improvement districts, and

A. Grantee is hereby granted the right to construct, reconstruct, replace, repair,
operate and maintain utility facilities together with appurtenant fixtures for use in

beyond Grantor's property within the Easement Premises. Subject to the notice
requirements provided in paragraph "I," Grantee shall at all times have the right of
full and free ingress and egress to and along the Easement Premises for the
purposes herein specified. Grantee acknowledges and accepts that Grantee shall
share the Easement Premises with other Grantees and shall use such Easement
Premises with other Grantees in accordance with and consistent with industry

Property Management Services Agreement for Village Shopping Center -
Amendment 1 (Ordinance S-47376)

Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute an amendment to
Agreement 142612 with Newmark Knight Frank Management (Newmark) for property
management services to provide additional funding and time to the agreement to
extend the term and increase the management fee. Further request to authorize the
City Controller to disburse all funds related to this item. The total agreement value will
not to exceed $21,000.

Summary
In April 2016, a property management services agreement was awarded via a Request
for Proposals (RFP) process to Newmark for the Village Shopping Center (VSC), a
City-owned multi-use shopping center located at 1945 W. Dunlap Ave. The agreement
expires April 13, 2021, with no remaining options to extend.

VSC is owned by the Public Transit Department (PTD), which seeks to consolidate
property management of VSC and the Public Transit Building, located at 302 N. 1st
Ave., under a single agreement for greater efficiency. RFP PTD20-009 was issued in
January 2021, and a new agreement is expected to be in place on or about July 1,
2021. This extension would allow sufficient time to complete that RFP process,
execute a new agreement, and ensure seamless customer service for tenants at VSC
and the Public Transit Building.

Procurement Information
The initial agreement with Newmark was procured in accordance with Phoenix City
Code Chapter 43 and Administrative Regulation 3.10.

Contract Term
The extension will be for the period from April 14, 2021, to June 30, 2021, with three
one-month options to extend.

Concurrence/Previous Council Action
The City Council approved Property Management Services Agreement 142612
(Ordinance S-42427) on April 6, 2016.


Page 85


Financial Impact
The initial agreement was authorized for an expenditure not-to-exceed $175,000. This
amendment will increase the authorization for the agreement’s cost by an additional
$21,000, for a new total not-to-exceed agreement value of $196,000. Newmark's
current monthly management fee of $2,500 has not been adjusted since 2016 and
would increase to $3,500 under this amendment. It is anticipated that lease revenues
from the Village Shopping Center will offset all expenses associated with this
amendment. Funds exceeding those generated are available in the Public Transit
Department's Operating budget.

Laboratory Equipment and Supplies Cooperative Contract Agreements -
Amendment 1 (Ordinance S-47395)

Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute amendments to
Agreement 145692 with VWR International, LLC, and Agreement 145861 with Fisher
Scientific Company, LLC, to provide additional time and funding to the agreements and
allow additional expenditures for purchase of laboratory equipment and supplies
essential for the Water Services and Police departments' business continuity. Further
request to authorize the City Controller to disburse all funds related to this item. The
additional expenditures will not exceed $1.1 million.

Summary
The agreements for laboratory equipment and supplies are vital for daily operations at
the Water Services and Police departments. The NASPO ValuePoint Cooperative was
adopted to obtain best value, and in some cases achieve more favorable pricing than
what is obtainable by an individual state or local government entity.

The agreement extensions and additional funds are a direct result of the COVID-19
pandemic. The NASPO lead agency, the State of Idaho, received emergency approval
to extend the current master agreement for one additional year. The new solicitation
planning is underway by the lead State of Idaho and the sourcing team. This will allow
the Finance Department sufficient time to review newly-awarded agreements and
compare pricing discounts for the high volume of items purchased to ensure City
services are not interrupted and to ensure the City receives the goods at the best
possible value.

Contract Term
Upon approval, the contract term will be extended through March 31, 2022.

Financial Impact
The initial agreements were authorized for an aggregate expenditure not-to-exceed

Rescue Hoist System - EXC 21-086 (Ordinance S-47411)

Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to purchase a Rescue Hoist
System from Breeze-Eastern LLC for use on the Police Department's twin-engine
rescue helicopter. Further request authorization for the City Controller to disburse all
funds related to this item. This one-time expenditure will not exceed $165,000.

Summary
The Phoenix Police Department (PPD) currently operates a twin-engine rescue
helicopter that performs emergency rescues and evacuations throughout the greater
Phoenix area. While PPD pilots the helicopter, the Phoenix Fire Department (PFD)
operates the helicopter's hoist system which allows for the insertion of rescuers,
extraction of victims, and the hoisting of equipment in emergency scenarios. The PFD
is currently operating on a backup rescue hoist system due to the primary rescue hoist
system being in long-term repair. An additional rescue hoist system is required to
maintain adequate contingency plans. If the current backup rescue hoist system were
to be damaged, the helicopter would be deemed non-deployable for rescue missions.

The purchase of the rescue hoist system from Breeze-Eastern is essential to maintain
consistency, familiarity with equipment, and the safety of operations. Additionally,
continuity of equipment will streamline maintenance and ordering of parts. This will
also ensure that the aircraft will not need to be modified or altered in any way to mount
the hoist assembly. This purchase is critical to preserve the Fire Department’s ability to
conduct rescue operations.

Procurement Information
In accordance with Administrative Regulation 3.10, normal competition was waived as
a result of an approved determination memo citing Breeze-Eastern LLC as the only
manufacturer of the rescue hoist system.

The Deputy Finance Director recommends that the contract with Breeze-Eastern LLC
be accepted.

Contract Term
This is for a one-time purchase and the contract shall begin on or about March 17,

Summary
The Planning and Development Department (PDD) is in the process of implementing a
new land management system (SHAPE PHX) that will replace all PDD core business
applications. Bluebeam is a separate application that is a critical component to support
PDD business processes. The integration of the SHAPE PHX Clariti software with
Bluebeam provides a virtual one-stop-shop for applicants to securely and electronically
submit and manage plans and associated files (photos, videos, GIS maps, CAD
drawings, text documents, electronic forms, etc.) which are required for the plan review
application. Electronic plan review is an important component of the SHAPE PHX
project. Bluebeam is a markup tool that will be integrated with the SHAPE PHX
system. This new software will better serve future customers as staff anticipates
continued electronic plan submittal as a long-term tool to facilitate more timely
development submittal reviews. Further request waiver and exemption from the
indemnification and liability provisions of section 42-18 of the City Code.

This item has been reviewed and approved by the Information Technology Services
Department.

solution.

Document Retrieval Services - Requirements Contract for Litigation and Claims
(Ordinance S-47400)

Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to ratify an agreement with
Compex Legal Services, Inc. (Compex) to provide document retrieval services, such
as medical bills and other records related to litigation or notice of claims for the Law
Department. The aggregate amount will not exceed $98,000 for a two year agreement.
Further request authorization for the City Controller to disburse all funds related to this
item.

Summary
The purpose of this agreement is for a document retrieval service that pulls all relevant
documents for litigation and notice of claims such as medical, hospital, billing, payroll,
personnel, insurance claims, Medicare, VA, Social Security, police departments, fire
departments, OSHA, employment and educational records. Those records are
provided to the Law Department as related to cases in litigation, or where the City has
received a Notice of Claim, to assist in evaluation of the case and for discovery
purposes. The City has an agreement with a paralegal service that was providing this
document retrieval service. The paralegal not only obtained the documents, but
organized and summarized them for the file. Cost cutting measures were taken last
Fall to pilot a program for obtaining these document services directly. Based on a few
months of using document retrieval services, the Law Department concluded over
$100,000 could be saved by using the document retrieval in lieu of using the paralegal
contract for obtaining documents. Therefore, the Law Department requests approval to
continue using this agreement to continue the pilot until Nov. 15, 2022.

Legal services are exempt from the Procurement Code, nevertheless, the City
obtained quotes from four vendors: DocuTrak, AZ D3, ABI Document Support Services
and Compex Legal Services, Inc. Compex was the lowest bid with volume discount
pricing for record retrieval charges per document copies, with assorted preparation
charges, services fees and field trip charges where applicable.

Contract Term
The agreement began on Nov. 16, 2020, and is effective until Nov. 15, 2022, for a two
year aggregate term with no options to extend.

Ordinance Establishing New City Code Sections, Chapter 36, Sections 36-70.01
Through 36-70.04, for Impoundment of Vehicles Cited for Racing or Reckless

This Ordinance creates City Code sections to allow for impoundment of vehicles for up
to 30 days for violations of Arizona Revised Statutes (A.R.S.), sections 28-708 (street
racing) or section 28-693 (reckless driving), and a process for post-impoundment
storage hearings, and allowing earlier release for exceptions for non-owner drivers,
rentals and stolen vehicles.

Summary
The proposed City Code sections will authorize police to impound vehicles for up to 30
days when the driver is cited under A.R.S. section 28-708 (street racing) and A.R.S.
section 28-693 (reckless driving). The Police Department has revised Operations
Order 6.6, Towing and Wreckers, to address situations which involve these citations,
and specifically to address situations encountered by the Street Racing Task Force.

instances involving competition or spectators.

hearings and exceptions for early release of impounded vehicles. Vehicles may be
released to owners showing proof of title who were not present or driving the
impounded vehicle. Exceptions also include owners with proof of rented or stolen
vehicles.

establishing new City Code provisions for 30-day impoundment and post storage
processes at the Dec. 9, 2020 meeting by a vote of 3-1.

Graffiti Protective Coatings Mobile Field Work Order Application (Ordinance S-
47408)

Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to enter into a contract with
Graffiti Protective Coatings, dba App-Order, to utilize its mobile field work order
application, and all necessary support, maintenance and development services for the
Neighborhood Services Department Graffiti Busters team. Further request
authorization for the City Controller to disburse all funds related to this item. The
contract value will not exceed $150,000.

Summary
The Neighborhood Services Department (NSD) Graffiti Busters program is responsible
for abating graffiti from a variety of surfaces throughout the City of Phoenix. The graffiti
removal team, known as the Graffiti Busters, requires a high level of coordination and
logistical support to quickly and efficiently respond to reports of graffiti throughout the
City. To support these efforts, the Graffiti Busters' operations require the ability to
distribute case work resulting from graffiti removal requests, as well as the ability to
track all aspects of the team’s operations, including, but not limited to, turn-around
time, graffiti removal locations, equipment and supply inventory, case management
and work log data. The existing application used to accomplish this high level of
coordination for the Graffiti Busters team is built on outdated and unsupported
technology.

To support the team's operations moving forward, NSD is requesting to contract with
the vendor to replace the existing application software with the piloted solution. During
the current nine-month pilot program the application has resulted in multiple
operational improvements for the Graffiti Busters team and a more efficient delivery of
services for residents. In the last phase of the pilot, NSD estimated a 14 percent
increase in removals when compared to the prior year, despite reduced staffing levels.
New or enhanced features developed within the application include the automatic
integration of case photos with time/date stamping to case logs, electronic supply and
equipment ordering which provide instant communication for supply clerks and
eliminates paper ordering forms, and improved GIS mapping resulting in the more
accurate location of graffiti site addresses. Additionally, the requested application
solution provides for increased mobile functionality for the field team, as well as the


Page 138

ability for office and call center staff to utilize the web-interface to enter new cases or
edit case details. This additional functionality may allow for another dated application
within the department to potentially be retired in the near future.

This item has been reviewed and approved by the Information Technology Services
Department.

Procurement Information
In accordance with Administrative Regulation 3.10, normal competition was waived as
a result of a Determination Memo citing that App-Order is the sole source provider
equipped with meeting the City’s technical requirements and providing an application
designed for graffiti removal operations.

Contract Term
The contract is for a five-year term beginning on or about May 1, 2021, and will not
exceed $150,000.

Financial Impact
The aggregate contract value will not exceed $150,000; funds are available in the
Neighborhood Services Department’s budget.

complete rehabilitation projects for deteriorating properties. The program focuses on
addressing structural and health and safety related standards and criteria to ensure
equitable habitability and function of the property, and serves as an anti-displacement
tool.

Development (HUD) Consolidated Plan approved by City Council. The recommended
expanded Rental Rehab requirements incorporate:
· Single- and multi-family eligible properties, up to 24 units
· Strategically targeted service areas to focus on anti-displacement, create and
preserve affordable housing, and support neighborhood economic development
· Affordability periods requiring rents remain at or below Housing and Urban
Development's (HUD) fair market level rent for up to 20 years
· Mortgage principal paydown grant to assist property owners meet underwriting
criteria
· Increased CDBG project investment limits of $40,000 per unit / $400,000 per project
· Property owner match requirement of up to 25 percent
· Prioritization of sustainable locally-owned projects

from the U.S. Department of Housing and Development (HUD); there is no financial

Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to pay a sponsorship fee of
$50,000 to Thrive Consultancy Inc., to support program development and delivery
associated with a 10-week employee-owned sustainable food business incubation
program that serves Phoenix residents, specifically veterans, women, and people of
color. Further request authorization for the City Controller to disburse funds related to
this item. Funding is available in the Community and Economic Development
Department's budget.

Summary
Thrive Consultancy Inc. (Thrive), is a Benefit Corporation established in 2020 that
supports small- to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in becoming environmentally
responsible, socially empowering, and economically successful. Thrive strives to
empower groups and individuals who are often excluded from entrepreneurship and
business opportunities, particularly women and people of color, and aims to accelerate
the uptake of sustainable business models and practices by start-ups and established
businesses. As a startup, Thrive was born out of the Arizona State University School of
Sustainability Masters of Sustainability Solutions Program. Some of Thrive's work has
included conducting an eight-week incubation program last spring within the City's
Eastlake community for entrepreneurs aspiring to create a sustainable employee-
owned beverage business. The initial program included eight women entrepreneurs
that developed beverage products, program and operational budget, business plan,
and pitch. Thrive has also participated in developing and delivering several, full-day
training workshops on sustainable cooperative businesses for aspiring entrepreneurs.

The proposed 10-week pilot program will support up to 20 veterans, particularly
women and people of color, and will lead to the creation of four to six employee-owned
sustainable food businesses in Phoenix. The City's sponsorship will be to support
program development and delivery associated with the pilot program. Participants will
engage in experiential and online lessons six hours per week over the course of 10
weeks. City of Phoenix residents participating in the program can choose from one of
two pathways, including a focus on creating a new, employee-owned sustainable food
enterprise or working with existing businesses to grow and transition to employee-


Page 142

ownership.

Thrive is addressing a critical need: developing, supporting and promoting the growth
of veteran entrepreneurs, particularly women and people of color, in building
sustainable employee-owned food businesses. The Thrive program will lead to a
greater number of quality jobs and business formation among veterans.

Upon completion of the 10-week program, Thrive will provide City staff with a written
quarterly report up to one year on the progress of each program participant and status
of the employee-owned business. City staff will follow up with Thrive on the status of
participants every three months for up to one year. The quarterly report will contain at
least the following:

· Number of veteran entrepreneurs starting a sustainable employee-owned food
business in Phoenix;
· Number of new sustainable employee-owned food businesses formed in Phoenix;
· Number of quality jobs generated through these businesses; and
· Number of local businesses associated with program transitioning to employee-
ownership and adopting practices to benefit employees, community and the
environment.

This sponsorship, if approved, supports the City Council's policy direction to help
veterans enter the workforce. It also increases the percentage of sustainable
employee-owned businesses and increases the percentage of quality jobs in food
businesses within the City of Phoenix. Additionally, the sponsorship supports the
Community and Economic Development Department's objective to support and
promote entrepreneurship across the food system and helps achieve the City of
Phoenix Food Action Plan goals.

Financial Impact
The City's one-time sponsorship to Thrive Consultancy Inc. will not exceed $50,000.
Funding is available in the Community and Economic Development Department's
budget.

Concurrence/Previous Council Action
This item was recommended for approval by the Workforce and Economic
Development Subcommittee at the Feb. 24, 2021 meeting by a vote of 4-0.
Responsible Department
This item is submitted by Interim Deputy City Manager John Chan and the Community
and Economic Development Department.

Enter into Memorandum of Understanding and Revocable License Agreement
with U.S. Department of Labor for Use of Parking Lot at Phoenix Job Corps
Center and Request to Indemnify U.S. Department of Labor (Ordinance S-47406)

Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to enter into a Memorandum
of Understanding and Revocable License Agreement, and any other agreements as
necessary, with the Employment and Training Administration of the U.S. Department of
Labor, or its City-approved designee, for the use of a parking lot of the Phoenix Job
Corps Center, located at 518 S. 3rd St. in the Phoenix Warehouse District. Further
request authority, pursuant to Phoenix City Code section 42-20(B), to indemnify the
U.S. Department of Labor from claims arising out of the use of the parking lot under
the Memorandum of Understanding. Additionally, request authority for the City
Treasurer to accept, and for the City Controller to disburse, funds if necessary for this
item.

Summary
Job Corps is a no-cost education and career technical training program administered
by the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) that helps young people ages 16 to 24
improve the quality of their lives through career technical and academic training. The
Phoenix Job Corps (PJC) has been in the Phoenix Warehouse District for decades and
provides valuable job training programs to the youth of Phoenix. The City has long
been connected to PJC through job training programs, employment placement and
through the business community. Additionally, City staff and the PJC work closely
together on many other endeavors.

As part of their existing operations, PJC has two surface parking lots that are utilized
for their students and staff during weekday operation hours. The PJC has limited use
for these parking lots evenings and weekends, when the parking lots usually stand
vacant. As new development and redevelopment of the Warehouse District has
continued to gain attention, parking for area businesses and special events is
extremely challenging. Warehouse District tenants often have speaking events,
programs, special events and other evening events that draw significant attendees into
the area, causing challenges with the limited public parking that is available in the
immediate area for public use.



Page 144

City staff has been working closely with the DOL to structure an opportunity to utilize
one of the PJC's existing parking lots (Lot) for parking when not in use by PJC. In
order to use this Lot, the DOL has provided the City with an Memorandum of
Understanding (MOU) and Revocable License Agreement (License), for use of the Lot.
In order to evaluate any necessary agreements (Agreements), staff has negotiated a
six-month License so the DOL and City can determine the value and effectiveness of
the Agreements. After the six-month period, the term could be extended, if mutually
agreeable.

Subject to City Council approval, the following business terms have been negotiated
with the DOL and would be implemented through the Agreements:

· City will not be charged a fee for use of the Lot;
· Lot use would be available daily from 6 p.m. to 11 p.m.;
· City will provide PJC with written notice of its request to use the Lot in 30-day
increments, and will provide specific times and events for utilization of the Lot;
· Lot will be utilized for parking for events and facilities located within a two-mile
radius of the Lot;
· City may enter into separate sublicenses with third party entities to utilize the Lot
during the Use Periods;
· City will pay for the design and fabrication of temporary signage;
· Sublicensee(s) will be responsible for retrieving the temporary sign(s) from the City,
posting the temporary sign(s) on the Lot during Use Periods stating parking is at the
user's own risk, and shall remove the signs each day after the Use Periods;
· Sublicensee(s) will be responsible for returning the temporary sign(s) to the City at
their own expense, upon conclusion of their use;
· Sublicensee(s) will be responsible for the use and maintenance of the Lot during
Use Periods including enforcement when the Use Periods expire;
· City assumes all risk of damages or loss, and all claims of property damage. The
City will include the Lot under its self-insured liability program in order to meet the
requirement to provide an umbrella liability policy in the amount of not less than $5
million on the Lot during the term of the License;
· City will indemnify the DOL for use of the Lot during the term of the License;
· City shall be required, and shall require its sublicensee(s) to purchase commercial
liability insurance with limits of no less than $5 million covering the use of the Lot
during the Use Periods, naming the City and the DOL as additional insured; and
· Agreements may contain other terms and conditions deemed necessary by the City.




Page 145

As the City continues to revitalize and redevelop the Warehouse District, the use of
this Lot is an important economic development opportunity, providing for additional
parking that will encourage events and patrons to visit the area.

Contract Term
The Revocable License Agreement will be for an initial term of six-months and can be
extended if mutually agreeable.

Financial Impact
The U.S. Department of Labor will not charge a fee to the City for use of the Lot. The
Community and Economic Development Department will be responsible for the design
and fabrication of the temporary sign(s) and has allocated $2,000 for this purpose.
There is no impact to the General Fund for this expense. Funding is available in the
Downtown Community Reinvestment Fund.

Location
Phoenix Job Corps is located at 518 S. 3rd St. and the parking lot is located on three
parcels at the northwest corner of 1st Street and Lincoln Street.
Council District: 8

Public Hearing - Proposed Water Service Revenue Increase

Request to hold a public hearing to receive comments on proposed amendment to
section 37-63 of the Phoenix City Code to provide for an increase in revenues for
water service. This hearing is held in accordance with Arizona Revised Statute 9-
511.01.

Public Outreach
Information detailing the proposed water revenue increase of 6.5 percent over the two-
year period of calendar years 2021 and 2022 is available to the public in the City Clerk
Department of the City of Phoenix located at 200 W. Washington St., 15th Floor.
Information is also available on the City of Phoenix website:
https://www.phoenix.gov/waterrates.

Phoenix water rates remain among the most affordable in major cities throughout the
Southwest. Nonetheless, the Mayor and Council have approved substantial water
equity measures to ensure that low income households maintain access to water
services, particularly during the current pandemic. The proposed increase applies
only to the water volume charges assessed on water use above the allowance
amount included in the fixed monthly service charge, resulting in no water rate
increase at all for households that maintain water use within those allowances.
Currently, approximately 40 percent of households served in Phoenix maintain monthly
water use below those allowance levels.

During the month of February 2021, information on the proposed rate increase was
mailed to all water account holders through the City Services bill and PHX at your
Service (PAYS). Over 20 community outreach meetings and open houses also were
held to present information and obtain feedback, and numerous media interviews and
social media posts occurred (Attachment A). The Citizens' Water and Wastewater
Rate Advisory Committee recommended the proposed revenue increase, citing that it
would generate the resources necessary to invest in rehabilitation and replacement of
critical infrastructure including water pipes, treatment plants, pumps, reservoirs and
wells that provide residents with clean, affordable, reliable and sustainable water.

Mayor Kate Gallego

Dear Mayor Gallego and Members of the City Council:

As Chair, and on behalf of the members of the Water / Wastewater Rate Advisory Committee (WWRAC), I write to
express the full committee’s support for the proposed water rate increase for the Water Services Department.
Specifically, we endorse “Option 2,” which recommends a 3.0% rate increase to be implemented October 2021,
followed by a 3.5% rate increase to be implemented March 2022. The WWRAC endorses this approach because it
fully funds the capital improvement fund, maintains the water equity initiatives, and ensures that all planned
capital programs move forward as planned, following the implementation of the new rates. We encourage Mayor
and Council to adopt the proposed rate increase to ensure that the Water Services Department has the resources
necessary to invest in rehabilitation and replacement of critical infrastructure, including water pipes, treatment
plants, pumps, reservoirs and wells that provide residents with clean, affordable, reliable, and sustainable water.

While the committee is sensitive to the impact of the proposed rate increase on residents, we note that the
average residential customer utility bill would increase by approximately $2.40 per month over the next two years
or approximately $0.08 a day. It is worth noting that the City of Phoenix is among the most affordable combined
water and sewer rates in the Southwest. By investing now in the Water Services Department, the citizens of
Phoenix will manage and reduce the risks of future, more costly and more disruptive repairs.

I would also like to commend the Water Services Department for providing comprehensive and transparent
presentations on water resources, infrastructure and financial plans to the WWRAC. The Interim Director and city
staff have fully briefed the WWRAC on financial forecasts, answered all questions, and addressed all requests for
information. This allowed WWRAC to make to an informed decision to recommend Option 2.

Finally, the Water Services Department should be recognized for conducting a far-reaching public engagement and
education strategy despite the challenges presented by the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic response. Outreach efforts
included a dedicated website with email address, online survey, FAQs, bill estimator, videos, information on how
to understand and lower your water and sewer bill, financial reports, and more; most of this information is
available in English and Spanish. Furthermore, the Water Services Department held virtual meetings (and offered
recordings of those meetings). This is an impressive effort in participatory and transparent government.

In closing the members of the WWRAC encourage you to adopt “Option 2” of the proposed water rate increase.
We thank you for the opportunity to serve our community on this committee. If I can offer any additional
comments, please contact me at dave.white@asu.edu or (480) 221-0960.

Sincerely,




Dave D. White, Ph.D.
Chair, Water/Wastewater Rate Advisory Committee

Amend City Code - Proposed Water Service Revenue Increase (Ordinance G-
6826)

Request the City Council amend sections 37-63 of the Phoenix City Code to adjust
water service rates to increase rate revenue by 6.5 percent over the next two years.

Summary
The Finance Department, in conjunction with the Water Services Department,
develops a Water Financial Plan to determine the revenue requirements that support
the capital infrastructure replacement, rehabilitation, and development needs, the
operating budget, and the debt service requirements of the water utility. The proposed
changes to the water rates planned for October 2021 and March 2022 are estimated to
produce $29.5 million the first full fiscal year after the rates take effect.

The proposed water rate changes for October 2021 will be applied to the low, medium
and high seasonal volume charges. On average, customer bills for water will increase
3.0 percent. Depending on the actual water consumption, some customers may pay
more or less than this average.

The proposed water rate changes for March 2022 also will be applied to the low,
medium and high seasonal volume charges. On average, customer bills for water will
increase 3.5 percent. Depending on the actual water consumption, some customers
may pay more or less than this average.

An independent rate consultant has reviewed and evaluated the Water Financial Plan
and determined that the financial plan information supports rate adjustments that are
reasonable and consistent with rating agency standards (Attachment A).

There is no proposed increase to wastewater rates in Fiscal Years (FYs) 2021 or 2022.

Concurrence/Previous Council Action
On Jan. 6, 2021, the City Council heard the Notice of Intention to consider an increase
in water rates and/or rate components and set a public hearing date to consider the
proposed increase.



Page 158


The Citizens' Water/Wastewater Rate Advisory Committee (WWRAC) recommended:
· A zero percent wastewater revenue increase for FY 2021, based upon the five-year
financial plan that includes zero percent wastewater revenue increases in each of
FYs 2021-25 on Oct. 20, 2020, by a vote of 6-2; and
· A 3.0 percent water revenue increase effective October 2021 and a 3.5 percent
increase in revenue effective March 2022; based upon the five-year financial plan
that includes 3.5 percent increases in revenue for each of FYs 2023-25 on Jan. 21,
2021, by a vote of 6-0.

The Transportation, Infrastructure, and Innovation Subcommittee:
· Reviewed the WWRAC recommendation on Dec. 2, 2020, and requested three CIP
Plan Alternatives be evaluated;
· Reviewed the three requested CIP Plan Alternatives on Feb. 3, 2021; and
· On March 3, 2021, recommended approval of a 3.0 percent water revenue increase
effective October 2021, a 3.5 percent water revenue increase effective March 2022,
and zero percent wastewater revenue increases for FYs 2021 and 2022, by a vote
of 4-0.

Public Outreach
In accordance with Arizona Revised Statute 9-511.01, the City Council will conduct a
public hearing on March 17, 2021, to receive comments on the proposed increase in
water rates. Additional information regarding public outreach efforts is detailed in the
Council Report for the public hearing agenda item.

achieve the financial policies of the Department and the City. The Department prepares a rolling five-
year plan – when prepared in subsequent years, the first year in the prior plan is removed and a new
year is added. The Department’s financial planning process is aligned with the City’s budget process;
the Mayor and City Council are provided with the Financial Plan information, including forecasted
revenue increases, to support the Department’s capital improvements and operations, prior to the City
Council’s review of the Department’s budgets.
Financial Plan Options
The Department has developed three Financial Plan options that differ based on the timing and level
of projected rate increases in FY 2022. Each option assumes no rate increase in FY 2021 and assumes
3.5 percent annual increases effective in March of each year from FY 2023 through FY 2025. The FY
2022 assumed rate revenue increases differ as follows. Option 1 assumes one 6.5 percent rate revenue
increase effective March 2022. Option 2 assumes two rate revenue increases in FY 2022, the first a 3.0
percent increase effective October 2021, the second a 3.5 percent increase effective March 2022.
Option 3 assumes one 3.5 percent rate revenue increase effective March 2022.
Except where specifically stated, all assumptions other than rate revenue increases and resulting rate
revenue from adjustments are identical under each option.
Financial Inputs and Policies
The Department utilized the following data inputs in developing the FY 2021-2025 Financial Plan:
• Forecasts of projected revenues at existing rates and other revenue sources.
• Forecasts of projected operating requirements.

The City’s fiscal year is from July 1 to June 30. “FY 2021” refers to the 12 months ending June 30, 2021.

• Estimated Capital Improvement Program (CIP) outlay.
The Financial Plan developed from these inputs reveals if, and in what years, water sales revenue
increases (rate adjustments) are needed to meet the Department’s annual cash requirements and to
conform to the following financial policies:
• All costs associated with the operation of the Water System shall be funded from revenues derived
from water rates and other water-related income sources.
• Annual debt service coverage goal at a minimum level of 2.00 times the annual debt service
requirement.
• The Department shall maintain available cash reserves at a minimum level of 1.00 times the
annual debt service requirement.
Adherence to these policies helps ensure that the Department has ready access to low cost capital and
allows them to respond to unforeseen circumstances in a timely manner. These policies are consistent
with rating agencies standards and are comparable to other highly rated water utilities.
The Financial Plan developed from these inputs reveals if, and in what years, water sales revenue
increases (i.e., rate adjustments) are required to meet the Department’s annual cash requirements and
achieve established financial planning/performance policies.
Financial Plan Summary
Tables 1 through 3 present the Financial Plan for each option and provides some detail of the revenue
and cost estimates. A discussion of the key Financial Plan components follows.
FY 2019 – FY 2023 Revenue Forecast
Potable water sales revenues (i.e., revenues generated from the Metered Water Charge and
Environmental Charge) are the largest source of projected operating revenues contained in the
Financial Plan. Water sales revenue projections are based on estimated customer accounts and water
sales during the five-year planning period.
The Department expects to experience an annual increase in the rate of new accounts connected as
the population continues to grow in Phoenix. Additionally, the Department monitors historical
temperature and rainfall patterns in the Phoenix service area that drive future consumption per
account forecasts. The summer of 2020 was unusually hot and dry resulting in higher than normal per
account consumption. The Department projects the higher use per account to continue into the FY
2021 summer months (July and August of 2020), and then to fall to more “normal” levels for the
balance of FY 2021 and FY 2022. Additionally, with the economic and societal uncertainty associated
with the COVID-19 Pandemic, the Department is projecting a negative impact to FY 2022 use per
account. Based on a combination of weather and economic factors considered by the Department, the
average use per account experienced in FY 2020 on an annual basis is projected to increase by 2.21
percent in FY 2021, followed by a decrease of 3.30 percent in FY 2022, and then rebound to more
“normal” levels in FY 2023 with a projected increase of 2.43 percent. Average use per account is
projected to decrease at an annual average of 0.39 percent from the FY 2024-2025 period. These two
factors – growth in the number of new accounts and metered water usage per account – are expected
to result in an increase in revenue under existing rates of 6.18 percent for FY 2021, a decrease of 4.04
percent in FY 2022, followed by an increase of 5.68 percent in FY 2023, followed by and modest
annual increases averaging 0.69 percent in the last two years of the five-year planning period.
Additional water sales revenues will be needed to meet annual operating and maintenance (O&M)
expenses and capital costs and to ensure compliance with the Department’s financial policies.




Page 161
Mayor and City Council February 11, 2021




Additional revenues are expected to be generated through a series of annual water revenue/rate
increases as detailed in the Financial Plan Options sections above.
FY 2021– FY 2025 Operating Requirements
O&M expenses comprise a significant portion of total Department costs or revenue requirements.
Total O&M expenses are projected to increase at an annual average rate of approximately 3.9 percent
over the forecast period. Increases in O&M are based on customer growth, the rate of inflation, and
individualized projections for major line items including electricity, chemicals, raw water, and
granular activated carbon.

FY 2021 – FY 2025 Capital Requirements
The Department’s FY 2021-2025 CIP is largely focused on rehabilitation of the various components
of the water system. The FY 2021-2025 CIP projections broken out by proposed funding (“Sources”)
is shown in Table 4.

As shown in Table 4, the Department anticipates using the proceeds from revenue bonds (CIC –
Bonds) to fund most of its CIP over the forecast period with the next largest funding source being
annual rate revenues. Given the magnitude of the CIP, this approach of funding ongoing repair,
replacement and rehabilitation of existing assets with revenue bonds is consistent with industry best
practices, i.e., the use of debt to fund longer lived, large dollar amount, capital projects.
Financial Plan options 1 and 2 project the issuance of CIC – Water Bonds (revenue bonds) in both
FY21-22 and FY24-25 to fund the CIP program while meeting financial policies. Financial Plan
option 3, which forecasts a lower rate revenue increase in FY 2022 compared to options 1 and 2,
assumes only the FY24-25 revenue bonds will be issued during the 5-year plan resulting in a need to
cut some of the revenue bond funded capital from the CIP program.
Principal Assumptions and Considerations
The Financial Plan projections represent an assessment by the Department of projected operating
results for the period FY 2021 to FY 2025. Raftelis has reviewed the projections at a summary level
and we believe that these projected operating results are reasonable for the Department’s financial
planning purposes. The Department’s revision of the Financial Plan in the future may result in changes
to its projected operating results. We cannot predict what changes, if any, will be made or what impact
these changes may have on the Department’s projected operating results.
In analyzing the Financial Plan, Raftelis relied on certain assumptions related to future Water System
conditions. There will usually be differences between assumed and actual conditions because events
and circumstances frequently do not occur as expected, and those differences may be significant. The
Department’s principal assumptions as used in the Financial Plan are:



Page 166
Mayor and City Council February 11, 2021




• The number of customer accounts will increase by approximately 0.80 percent in FY 2021, 1.00
percent in FY 2022, followed by approximately 1.25 percent annual increases over the next three
years.
• Water consumption per account is expected to increase at an annual rate of 2.21 percent in FY
2021, followed by a decrease of 3.30 percent in FY 2022, and increase by approximately 2.43
percent in FY 2023. Per account water consumption was high in FY 2021 due to unusually high
temperatures and low rainfall. The Department expects consumption to be negatively impacted
by the economic impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic, and then return to more typical levels by FY
2023. Water consumption per account is projected to decrease at an average annual rate of 0.39
percent the remaining two years, FY 2024 through FY 2025. Projections of water consumption
per account are based on average weather conditions and economic factors. Actual water sales are
subject to significant year-to-year variations due to fluctuations in weather conditions and will
likely vary from the projections in the Financial Plan.
• Water sales under existing rate projections, which consider both the number of customer accounts
and the consumption per account, are projected to increase by approximately 6.18 percent in FY
2021, followed by a decrease of 4.04 percent in FY 2022, and increase by approximately 5.68
percent in FY 2023. Water sales in the remaining years of the forecast are projected to increase at
a rate of approximately 0.69 percent annually.
• Future O&M expenses are projected to change annually based on the rate of inflation and
customer growth, as well as new recurring programs or initiatives. Future year costs, apart from
treatment costs and costs associated with implementation of new treatment processes, which are
forecasted separately, include an inflation adjustment of 3.0 percent annually. Overall, O&M
expenses are projected to increase at an annual average rate of approximately 3.9 percent.
• The CIP prepared by the Department is expected to meet current environmental standards and
projected customer growth requirements over the study period. Costs associated with any possible
changes in current EPA drinking water standards cannot be estimated until the new standard levels
are established.
• Interest rates and issuance costs of future debt are expected to be comparable with current market
conditions and credit rating.
• It is expected that the Mayor and City Council will continue to have full control over the
establishment of rates for water service and will adjust rates as necessary to meet the financial
needs of the Department, including compliance with the Department’s financial policies.
Reliance on Department Data
The purpose of this letter is to provide the City with an independent review of the Department-
prepared Financial Plan. To accomplish these objectives, Raftelis did not conduct an independent
financial audit or an in-depth evaluation of the Department’s operations or financial planning
initiatives or processes.
During this project the Department provided Raftelis with a variety of data and information relevant
to the Water System. We have relied on this data and information in completing our review of the
Department-prepared Financial Plan. However, we have not independently verified the data and
information as provided and, accordingly, take no responsibility for its accuracy. Furthermore, during
our review and analysis, and the preparation of this letter, nothing has come to our attention that
would cause us to believe that the assumptions used by the Department are unreasonable.
Nevertheless, there will usually be differences between forecasted and actual results, because events
and circumstances frequently do not occur as expected and those differences may be material.



Page 167
Mayor and City Council February 11, 2021




Changed conditions that occur or become evident after the date of this letter could affect the analysis
presented. As such, we have no responsibility to update this letter for events and circumstances
occurring after the date of this letter.
Conclusions
Based on our review of the Department’s Financial Plan and the considerations and assumptions set
forth herein, Raftelis offers the following opinions:
• The Department’s Financial Plan options 1 and 2 are expected to provide the funding necessary
to meet O&M expenses, implement the CIP as currently proposed and generally meet the
Department’s financial goals, targets and policies. The Department’s Financial Plan option 3 is
expected to provide the funding necessary to meet O&M expenses, while implementing a lower
level of revenue bond funded CIP and generally meet the Department’s financial goals, targets
and policies. In our professional opinion, the proposed rate increases are reasonable for the
estimated rate revenue required. To the extent that each of the rate adjustments anticipated in the
Financial Plan are not approved, it is likely that revenues will not be sufficient to cover the
Department’s O&M expenses and the Department will be required to draw on available cash
reserves, likely depleting these reserves to levels below those established by the Department’s
financial policies. Doing so could severely limit the Department’s ability to respond to unforeseen
problems and, more importantly, could lead to a downgrade in the credit rating of the
Department’s debt, thereby increasing, in the future, the Department’s cost of capital.
• The Department has developed several financial policies relating to the funding of the Water
System and outstanding debt. Adherence to these policies helps ensure that the Department has
ready access to capital at a reasonable cost and allows the Department to respond to unforeseen
circumstances in a timely manner. These policies are consistent with rating agencies standards and
are comparable to other highly-rated water utilities.
• In certain years of the Financial Plan the financial targets are not met; however, in years
subsequent they trend back towards the target. For instance, under Financial Plan option 1 the
annual debt service coverage falls to 1.80 in FY 2022, but trends up in subsequent years, reaching
2.00 by FY 2025. Similarly, the available cash reserves fall below the 1.0 target to 0.8 in FY 2023
but rebound to 1.0 in FY 2024. These financial policies are self-imposed and therefore it is
acceptable to fall below targets in a given year assuming that they trend back towards the targets
in subsequent years.
Raftelis appreciates the opportunity to assist the City with this matter. If you have questions regarding
the contents of this letter or if you require additional information, please contact me at (704) 936-4440.

Sincerely,
RAFTELIS

contingency plan when phase 2 of the PHX Sky Train is fully operational in the second
quarter of 2022.

The full operation of the PHX Sky Train system negates the scheduled passenger use
of the airport’s Rental Car Center buses. When in full operation, the PHX Sky Train
system becomes the primary mode of transportation for customers to access airport
parking locations, the rental car center, terminals, and connection to the City’s light rail
system.

For planned and unplanned train outages and events affecting passenger operations,
the airport must activate a transportation contingency plan to move a large volume of
passengers between all train station locations. Furthermore, the contingency plan must
be able to be activated quickly when an unplanned outage event occurs.

This RFI will provide the airport’s operating information and service needs to develop
strategies that optimize Phoenix Sky Harbor's busing needs on a contingency basis.
Advanced planning using this industry information will be essential when drafting a bus
contingency Operations and Maintenance (O&M) contract prior to the PHX Sky Train
phase 2 completion.

Fare Policy Amendment to Platinum Pass Program (Ordinance S-47398)

Request the City Council amend the City of Phoenix’s Public Transit Fare Ordinance to
expand the eligibility requirements of the regional Platinum Pass Program to allow
more organizations the option to participate in the program.

Summary
The Platinum Pass is a transit-specific smart card currently available to organizations
(schools, employers, etc.) for their employees or students. The cardholder registers
each trip when boarding local or Express/RAPID bus or rail service, and at the end of
each month, an invoice and itemized statement is issued to each organization for each
card’s use up to the monthly cap. The organization is responsible for the costs incurred
by its users, usually through trip reduction programs or as a subsidized employer
benefit.

While other organizations have expressed interest in the Platinum Pass Program, the
current Fare Ordinance language limits participation to employees and students only,
thereby excluding organizations who wish to offer the program to their tenants,
residents, or other individuals.

Recently, the Public Transit Department and Valley Metro were approached by a real
estate developer building a 1,000 resident, car-free community adjacent to the light rail
system in Tempe. The developer is considering offering the Platinum Pass as a benefit
to their residents with the goal of car-free residents accessing transportation
conveniently and consistently throughout the metro Phoenix area. Broadening the
eligibility requirements of the Platinum Pass Program would allow organizations the
option to offer the Platinum Pass to their residents.

Public Transit staff request that the City Council approve an amendment to the City of
Phoenix Public Transit Fare Ordinance to expand the Platinum Pass Program, thus
making it available to companies, agencies, or organizations for their employees,
students, tenants, residents, or other individuals permitted to participate by each
organization. The amendment request will also be heard by the Valley Metro Board at
an upcoming meeting.

Financial Impact
No financial impact is anticipated with the fare policy revision.

Attachment A

Platinum Pass Program*
Platinum Pass is a transit credit card available to companies, agencies, or
organizations for their employees, students, tenants, residents, or other individuals
permitted to participate by the company, agency, or organization. The cardholder
is charged the appropriate fare for each boarding on Local and Express/RAPID bus and
rail service. At the end of the month, a bill and an itemized statement is issued for each
boarding up to the monthly cap for each pass's usage. Passes are capped at the
maximum price of an Express/RAPID pass. A detailed report of actual boardings
charged each month can be purchased for an additional cost. The company,
agency, or organization is solely responsible for the cost of the program.

Federal Transit Administration Grant Funding for Low or No Emission Transit
Vehicles (Ordinance S-47409)

Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to apply for, accept, and
disburse a Federal Transit Administration grant for Low or No Emission transit
vehicles; and to enter into an agreement with the FTA to accept the grant. Further
request to authorize the City Treasurer to accept, and the City Controller to disburse,
all funds related to this item. The grant is anticipated for an amount not to exceed $3.2
million.

Summary
The Section 5339 Low or No Emissions competitive grant program provides funding to
state and local governmental authorities for the purchase or lease of zero- and/or low-
emission transit buses, including the acquisition, construction, and leasing of required
supporting facilities.

The Public Transit Department seeks to use a combination of Section 5339 grant and
local matching funds for the purchase of up to three electric buses and the installation
of supporting facility infrastructure and equipment to implement a pilot program to
evaluate the use of electric bus technology for Phoenix-operated transit service. To
date, the testing of electric buses in Phoenix's environment has shown that such
technology is not yet adequate to operate a heavy-duty bus during the region's hotter
months. However, the technology continues to improve and a pilot program would
provide the opportunity to fully test the vehicles' range, explore their ability to support
on-board equipment, and determine the infrastructure changes needed to upgrade
electrical systems for vehicle-charging purposes.

Financial Impact
Applications for the FTA Section 5339 grant requires a minimum 15 percent local cost
share of the bus purchase and 20 percent local cost share for the facility infrastructure
and related equipment.

Staff estimates the project's total cost to be $3.2 million, with Phoenix's local share not
to exceed $500,000. The local share of the project will use Transportation 2050 funds.

Transportation 2050 Program Management Consultant

Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to issue a Request for
Qualifications procurement for a new Transportation 2050 Program Management
Consultant agreement, which provides program management services in support of
the implementation of the City’s Transportation 2050 program.

Summary
Transportation 2050 (T2050) is Phoenix’s 35-year, multi-modal transportation plan
approved by Phoenix voters in August 2015. The T2050 plan invests in Phoenix’s
immediate and long-term transportation needs, such as street improvements,
expanded bus service, enhanced Dial-a-Ride service, new light rail miles, bicycle
lanes, and sidewalks. T2050 ensures Phoenix residents have multiple transportation
options to meet their needs. It is also an important component in furthering the City’s
economic development, sustainability, and accessibility goals. Funding for the plan
includes local sales tax and transit revenues which help the city to leverage federal
grants and other regional funds.

At the onset of the plan, City staff sought to procure support services and expertise
from a Program Management Consultant (PMC) for the T2050 Program to support the
implementation efforts of Street Transportation and Public Transit staff. The PMC
scope of services included:

· Assisting with the plan's implementation, planning, and programming;
· Development of, and reporting on, performance measures;
· Evaluating potential public-private partnerships and other similar financing
opportunities;
· Technical planning and engineering services, including feasibility analyses;
· Cost estimating and administrative support;
· Developing design guidelines and typical standard designs and details;
· Providing other services as required to support staff in executing the multi-modal
T2050 program of projects; and
· Utilizing a Qualified Vendor List, which includes local engineering firms for projects
and program support.


Page 200


Following a competitive procurement process, AECOM was selected as the PMC
consultant, and a five-year agreement was executed in September 2016. Over the
course of the agreement, the PMC has provided the anticipated scope of services; see
Attachment A for examples of the services provided.

The PMC has also provided critical support needed for tasks that arose which had not
been originally identified, including in the following areas:

· Accelerated Pavement Maintenance Program public outreach;
· Public Transit planning support;
· Mobility studies;
· Traffic and pedestrian safety;
· Transportation planning support;
· Grant applications; and
· Guidelines for community outreach.

The current PMC agreement will expire in September 2021. The Street Transportation
and Public Transit departments have identified a continued need for PMC support in
the implementation of the T2050 plan. As such, staff plans to issue a Request for
Qualifications (RFQ) for a new T2050 PMC agreement in Spring 2021. The new
procurement will also be for a five-year agreement.

City staff will evaluate the submissions received, select the most qualified firm, enter
into contract negotiations, and present a recommendation for agreement award to the
Citizens Transportation Commission (CTC) in August 2021. This timeline is intended to
create a seamless transition in services from the current agreement to the new
agreement.

Concurrence/Previous Council Action
The Transportation, Infrastructure and Innovation Subcommittee recommended
approval of the previous T2050 PMC Services agreement on June 14, 2016, by a vote
of 3-0.
The City Council approved T2050 PMC Services Agreement 143088 (Ordinance S-
42743) on June 22, 2016.
The Citizens Transportation Commission recommended approval of this item on Feb.
25, 2021.
The Transportation, Infrastructure and Innovation Subcommittee recommended
approval of this item on March 3, 2021, by a vote of 4-0.

Downtown Shared Electric Scooter Pilot Program Extension (Ordinance G-6823)

Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to approve a 12-month
extension of the Downtown Shared Electric Scooter Pilot Program and to amend
Ordinance G-6602 to extend the sunset provision by an additional six months, to
allow shared electric scooters to continue to operate within the Downtown Shared
Electric Scooter Pilot Program area.

Summary
On June 26, 2019, City Council unanimously approved the Downtown Shared
Electric Scooter Pilot Program, which allowed shared electric scooter vendors to
obtain a permit to operate within the City of Phoenix. As part of the Pilot Program,
allow shared electric scooters to operate on public streets. The Ordinance
amendment also included definitions for an electric scooter and authorized the City
of Phoenix Police Department or peace officer to issue civil traffic citations for,
among other things, speed limit violations, yielding the right-of-way, parking
violations, and riding on the sidewalk. Additionally, the Ordinance amendment
included a one-year sunset provision, which effectively would repeal the Code
changes on June 25, 2020.

The initial six-month Pilot Program was to end on March 16, 2020. On Feb. 19,
2020, City Council approved Ordinance G-6676, extending the Pilot Program for an
additional six months and to open the permit application process to allow new
vendors to apply for the Pilot Program. Ordinance G-6676 also amended Ordinance
G-6602 to extend the sunset provision until Dec. 31, 2020. Due to the COVID-19
pandemic, however, the start of the second six-month pilot program was delayed.
Therefore, on Dec. 2, 2020, City Council approved Ordinance G-6772, extending
the second six-month Pilot Program through March 31, 2021, and amending
Ordinance G-6602 to extend the Phoenix City Code sunset provision to Dec. 31,
2021.

In October 2020, staff issued permits for the second six-month Pilot Program to two
electric scooter vendors: Razor and Spin. The second six-month Pilot Program


Page 205

commenced on Oct. 1, 2020 and is scheduled to end on March 31, 2021.

The requested action will permit Street Transportation Department (Streets) staff to
issue twelve-month permits to extend the Pilot Program through March 31, 2022.
This update represents the first four months of the second phase of the Pilot
Program (October 2020 through January 2021).

Streets has been working to ensure the Downtown Shared Electric Scooter Pilot
Program is cost neutral to the City. In order to ensure the Program is cost neutral,
Streets has prepared to modify the Program fees by posting proposed fee
increases applicable to the Pilot Program on Feb. 1, 2021. The proposed fees are a
$500 application fee (unchanged), a $7,500 six-month permit fee (increase of
$2,500), $0.25 surcharge fee per trip (increase of $0.15), and a relocation parking
fee of $100 per scooter (increase of $20). Based on the posting time requirements
for proposed fee increases, the proposed fees may be acted on by City Council no
earlier than its April 7, 2021, meeting.

Based on emerging micro-mobility trends, Streets will also evaluate opportunities
for a comprehensive micro-mobility program, which could include scooters, electric
bikes, and pedal bikes. Staff anticipates providing potential options on a
comprehensive micro-mobility program to City Council later this year.

Financial Impact
There is no financial impact to the City of Phoenix to amend Ordinance G-6602 to
extend the sunset provision.

NRG Energy, Inc. for installation of solar equipment in exchange for specified
advertising rights at the PCC. In August 2018, NRG Energy, Inc. was acquired by
Global Infrastructure, and along with this acquisition, it was announced that the
company name would change from NRG Energy, Inc. to Clearway Energy, Inc.

Agreement 93267, Agreement 114706 (both LSE and WSA) and License Agreement
130903 reassigned to Clearway Energy, Inc.

indefinite duration and shall remain in effect until revoked or cancelled per the terms of
the license. Lease Agreement 130903 ends on April 28, 2021, and has two available
five-year extension options through April 28, 2031. Agreement 114706 (both LSE and
WSA) ends on Jan. 4, 2030, with five available five-year extension options through
Jan. 4, 2055.

strategically located land that are positioned to provide maximum benefit to the Trust’s
Beneficiaries when auctioned. The subject site proximity to the Deer Valley Airport and
Interstate 17 Freeway position it well for future investment. Figure 1 below is an aerial
map of the subject site outlined in yellow. The Aviation Department is not supportive of
the change to the city owned parcel. Staff is recommending removal of the city owned
parcel from the GPA request.




Figure 1: Aerial Map (Source: ASLD)

With the goal of positioning the site for future investment, the ASLD and the City of



Page 246
Phoenix are proposing to rezone the subject site in advance of its auction to a Planned
Unit Development (PUD). The PUD is the subject of a companion rezoning case, Z-68-
20-1. The PUD will permit both commerce park and industrial land uses throughout the
property. The sites current General Plan Land Use Map designation only permits
Industrial uses. This General Plan Amendment proposes a Mixed Use land use map
designation of Commerce / Business Park / Industrial. There is a small strip of
Public/Quasi-Public adjacent to the airport. This Mixed Use designation will allow
commerce park and industrial land uses to locate on the site in compliance with the
PUD’s development standards. The submitted proposal included land belonging to the
of this request. Therefore, staff is recommending a denial as filed and a
recommendation for approval with a reduction in the site boundary to exclude the City of
Phoenix Deer Valley Airport property and only include the Arizona State Land
Department area only. The proposed and staff recommended areas are shown below in
Figure 2. Maps of the existing and staff recommended General Plan Land Use Map
designations can be found in Exhibit 1 attached to this report.

EXISTING CONDITIONS AND SURROUNDING LAND USES

The subject site is generally flat and undeveloped. The table below (Figure 2) provides
a summary of the surrounding General Plan (GP) Land Use Map designations, existing
land uses and zoning.

Figure 2: Surrounding Land Use Designations, Land Use and Zoning

The proposed Mixed Use Land Use Map designation is compatible with the surrounding
land uses and zoning. The site is abutting the Deer Valley Airport to the south. The
existing General Plan Land Use Map designations of the subject site and the
surrounding properties are meant to provide a buffer of appropriate land uses within
close proximity to the airport. The proposed Mixed Use land use designation of
Industrial / Commerce/Business Park maintains the integrity of this land use buffer and
will ultimately support land uses and zoning on the subject site that will be compatible
with the ongoing operations of the airport.

The site is also approximately 1.75 miles east of the Interstate 17 Freeway and falls
within the boundaries of the Maricopa Association of Government’s Deer Valley
Employment Center. This proximity to the Interstate 17 Freeway and location within an
Employment Center reinforces the site’s capacity to support land uses associated with
industry and employers. The proposed Mixed Use designation supports a mix of land
uses that will maximize the area’s transportation infrastructure assets and will support
the addition of more employers to the area.

RELATIONSHIP TO GENERAL PLAN CORE VALUES AND PPRINCIPLES

Connect People and Places Core Value

• Cores, Centers and Corridors; Land Use Principle: Locate land uses with
the greatest height and most intense uses within village cores, centers and
corridors based on village character, land use needs, and transportation
system capacity.

The proposed land use change is appropriate for a site that is surrounded by
similar uses, is served by an arterial street (Pinnacle Peak Road) and is
approximately 1.75 miles from the Interstate 17 Freeway.

Strengthen Our Local Economy Core Value




Page 248
• Job Creation (Employers); Land Use Principle: Support General Plan Land
Use Map and zoning changes that will facilitate the location of employment
generating uses in each of the designated employment centers.

The proposed land use change will reinforce the location as a destination for
employment uses within the Deer Valley Employment Center.


CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION

Staff recommends denial as filed and approval of 59.24 acres which excludes the City
of Phoenix property. The request aligns with the goals and polices of the General Plan,
represents an ongoing collaborative planning effort with the Arizona State Land
Department, and will result in a land use map designation that will continue to support
surrounding uses while maximizing the property’s location in an Employment Center.

Ms. Carolyn Oberholtzer, with Bergin, Frakes, Smalley & Oberholtzer, PLLC,
and Mark Edelman with the Arizona State Land department went over the
proposals for the GPA and PUD requests as a combined presentation. She
highlighted that the changes proposed would permit a mix of Commerce Park
and Industrial uses, which is consistent with surrounding land uses north of the
Deer Valley Airport. She shared that the rezoning case will establish a land use
mix that maximizes property’s location in an employment corridor and will better
position the properties for sale by the State Land Department. She also went
over staff’s recommended stipulations for the rezoning case.

Mr. Mark Lewis asked if the site was being prepped for something specific.

Ms. Oberholtzer shared that there are pending applications on the site today but
nothing has been solidified.

Background/Issues/Analysis

PROPOSAL

1. This request is to rezone approximately 77.17 acres at the southeast corner of
7th Avenue and Pinnacle Peak Road from A-1 DVAO (Light Industrial District,
Deer Valley Airport Overlay) to PUD DVAO (Planned Unit Development, Deer
Valley Airport Overlay District).




Page 266
The proposal includes a portion of property currently owned by the City of
Phoenix for the Deer Valley Airport. As discussed in the departmental
comments below, the Aviation Department has chosen not take part in the
rezoning request. The original request area as well as the staff recommended
request area are shown below in Figure 1.




Figure 1: Source: City of Phoenix Planning and Development Services Department

Staff is recommending that only the property owned by the Arizona State Land
Department be included in the request. The original request area as well as
the staff recommended request area are shown below in Figure 1.
The PUD provides a zoning and regulatory framework to permit a mix of
commerce park and industrial land uses. The subject property is State Trust
Land and is managed by the Arizona State Land Department (ASLD). The
ASLD, in partnership with the City of Phoenix, has identified strategically
located parcels that are positioned to provide maximum benefit to the Trust’s
Beneficiaries when auctioned. Proceeds from ASLD auctions go to a variety of
beneficiaries including public schools and the state’s public universities. The
subject property’s proximity to the Deer Valley Airport and Interstate 17
Freeway position it well for future investment.

EXISTING SITE CONDITION

2. The site is currently vacant. Exhibit B attached to this report is an aerial map of
the subject property and surrounding area.

GENERAL PLAN LAND USE MAP DESIGNATIONS, LAND USES AND ZONING

3. The table below (Figure 2) provides a summary of the onsite and surrounding
General Plan (GP) Land Use Map designations, existing land uses and zoning.

Figure 2: Surrounding Land Use Designations, Land Use and Zoning

The property’s current General Plan Land Use Map designations only permit
industrial land uses on the site. A companion General Plan Amendment
request (GPA-DV-3-20-1) proposes a Mixed Use land use designation of
Industrial / Commerce / Business Park. This Mixed Use designation will allow
commerce park and industrial land uses the flexibility to locate on any portion
of the site in compliance with the PUD’s development standards.

The property is zoned A-1. The A-1 designation was part of Annexation No. 86
which established equivalency zoning for the subject property and surrounding
properties when the City annexed them in 1972.
The PUD’s proposal for both commerce park and industrial land uses is
consistent with the zoning on adjacent properties. The subject site is adjacent
to property with either some portion of the property zoned Commerce Park or
Light Industrial on all four sides.

DEER VALLEY AIRPORT OVERLAY DISTRICT

4. The site falls within the boundaries of the Deer Valley Ariport Overlay District
(DVAO). The City Council adopted the DVAO in 2006 to protect the health,
safety and welfare of persons and property in the vicinity of Deer Valley Airport
(DVA) and to protect the long term viability of DVA as a general aviation facility
by ensuring land use compatibility with airport operations, protecting navigable
airspace from physical encroachment and requiring permanent notice of flight
operations to property owners.

The DVAO establishes different regulatoary areas within its boundaries –
Areas 1, 2 & 3. Area 1 of the DVAO places a restriction on residential
development within A-1 zoned properties. Areas 2 & 3 have additional use
restrictions and Area 3 has additional building height restrictions. The subject
properties fall within the boundaries of Area 1. Figure 3 on the following page
is a map of the boundaries of the DVAO Areas along with the proposed subject




Page 268
site boundary.
The proposed PUD will maintain and adhere to the the DVAO. The PUD’s
permitted use list is consistent with the DVAO’s restrictions and goes even
further to completely restrict residential land uses. The PUD’s regulatory
framework ensures that the property will develop in a manner that is
compatible with the ongoing operations of the Deer Valley Airport.

5. The subject site is located within 1.75 mile of the Interstate 17 Freeway and
within the Deer Valley Major Employment Center. The proposed PUD will
position the site to add additional employment opportunities within the
employment center and within close proximity to a major freeway corridor.

PUD NARRATIVE

6. The proposal was developed utilizing the PUD zoning designation. The
Planned Unit Development (PUD) is intended to create a built environment that
is superior to that produced by conventional zoning districts and design
guidelines. Using a collaborative and comprehensive approach, an applicant
authors and proposes standards and guidelines that are tailored to the context
of a site on a case by case basis. Where the PUD Development Narrative is
silent on a requirement, the applicable Zoning Ordinance provisions will be
applied. Stipulation No. 1 includes a requirement to provide an updated version



Page 269
of the narrative after City Council approval.
7. Land Use: The PUD permitted use list consists of the permitted uses from the
A-2 Industrial District and the Commerce Park District’s General Commerce
Park option. The use list will permit a variety of uses that are consistent with
the permitted uses in the surrounding area and will be compatible with the
operations of Deer Valley Airport. In order to ensure that the site is
development with the desired employment-oriented uses and with the goal of
ensuring compatibility with the Deer Valley Airport, the PUD prohibits
residential uses on the property.

8. Development Standards: The PUD establishes a uniform set of development
standards for the entire site. A full list of the development standards can be
found on page 8 in the PUD Narrative. Below is a summary that highlights
some of the development standards.

- Building Height: Maximum 80 and in addition to the building height
exceptions outlined in the Zoning Ordinance (Section 701.B), non-
habitable mechanical equipment and structures that may include, but
are not limited to, elements such air separators, exhaust pipes, storage
tanks, and gas processing equipment are permitted up to 150 feet in
height.

- Open Space: For any property development in excess of 56 feet: A
minimum of ten 10 percent of the parcel’s total net area shall be open
space with appropriate landscaping and other employee-oriented
amenities.

- Building / Landscape Setbacks

o Arterial or Collector Street: 50 feet minimum.
o Local Street: 20 feet minimum.
o Not adjacent to a street: 0 feet minimum.
o Airport strip that bifurcates the property shall comply with
streetscape setbacks.

The PUD’s standards for landscape setbacks exceed those in the Commerce
Park / General Commerce Park and A-2 zoning districts. The landscape
setback standards will provide for a significant buffer between the onsite uses
and the adjacent streets. The PUD also contains enhanced landscaping
standards for the landscape setbacks. The setbacks along streets will be
required to provide a tree every twenty feet, five shrubs per tree and a
minimum of 60 percent of the setback area having live ground cover. The
airport strip that bifurcates the property shall comply with street setbacks, as
recommended in Stipulation No. 1.b. as it is planned to be utilized as a road in




Page 270
the future.
The PUD utilizes the Zoning Ordinance standards for parking, signs, lighting
and screening.

9. Streetscape & Other Guidelines: The PUD Narrative outlines additional
provisions to enhance the projects interface with public streets. The PUD will
require the provision of a detached sidewalk along the site’s perimeter streets
with a double row of trees. The PUD also contains guidelines that address the
design of buildings and open space.

10. Development Phases: The PUD does not propose a phasing schedule for the
site. Infrastructure improvements and enhanced streetscapes are addressed in
the PUD Narrative and the stipulations will be administered as redevelopment
occurs on the site.

PLANS AND INITIATIVES

11. Deer Valley Character Plan: The Deer Valley Village Planning Committee
and Phoenix City Council adopted the Deer Valley Village Character Plan in
2018. Development of a Character Plan by each of the fifteen Village Planning
Committees was called for in the 2015 General Plan Update. The Deer Valley
Village Character Plan celebrates the village’s assets and highlights elements
of the 2015 General Plan that the Deer Valley Village Planning Committee
identified as most relevant to their community. The PUD Narrative addresses
several of the General Plan policies identified in the Character Plan including
support for land use and rezoning cases that facilitate the location of
employment generating uses in employment centers and development of sites
with existing infrastructure and transportation capacity.

12. Tree and Shade Master Plan: The Tree and Shade Master Plan encourages
treating the urban forest as infrastructure to ensure the trees are an integral
part of the City’s planning and development process. 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 contains the following provisions that help to advance the goals of
the Tree and Shade Master Plan:
• Minimum 75 percent shading of all publicly accessible sidewalks and
trails along arterial and collector roadways by means of vegetation at
maturity and/or shade structures.
• Detached sidewalks along both sides of public streets with single trunk
trees.

13. Complete Streets Guidelines: In 2014, the City of Phoenix City Council




Page 271
adopted the Complete Streets Guiding Principles. The principles are intended
to promote improvements that provide an accessible, safe, connected
transportation system to include all modes, such as bicycles, pedestrians,
transit, and vehicles. The PUD Narrative specifically addresses the Complete
Street Guidelines in sections 6c on pages 3 through 8.

The General Plan’s Trail Map call for a multi-use trail (MUT) along the south
side of Pinnacle Peak Road. Stipulation No. 2 has been included requiring the
dedication of the trail easement and eventual construction of the trail.

14. Reimagine Phoenix: As part of the Reimagine Phoenix Initiative, the City of
Phoenix is committed to increasing the waste diversion rate to 40 percent by
2020 and to better manage its solid waste resources. The PUD Narrative does
not address how recycling will be provided on site.

COMMUNITY CORRESPONDENCE

15. At the time of this report the Planning and Development Department had not
received any comments from the community regarding this request.

INTERDEPARTMENTAL COMMENTS

16. Public Works Department, Flood Plain Management Division: It has been
determined that this parcel is not in a Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA), but
located in a Shaded Zone X, on panel 1280 L of the Flood Insurance Rate
Maps (FIRM) dated January 29, 2015.

17. Fire Department: The Department’s Fire Prevention Division saw no issues
with the request but did emphasize that the site or/and building(s) shall comply
with the Phoenix Fire Code. The Department went on to note that the water
supply for the site is unknown at this time and will need to be addressed to
meet the required fire flow per the Phoenix Fire Code.

18. Street Transportation Department: The Street Transportation Department
provided several comments related to street planning, design and pedestrian
safety that have been addressed in the PUD Narrative. Stipulation Nos. 3
through 8 address the requirements for the project to dedicate the necessary
right-of-way for adjacent streets, street construction and the requirement for a
traffic impact study.

19. Public Transit Department: The Public Transit Department requested the
PUD Narrative address pedestrian safety connectivity, safety and comfort
between any public transit facilities and buildings on the site. These requests
are addressed in Stipulation Nos. 2 through 5.




Page 272
20. Aviation Department: The Aviation Department reviewed the request and
shared that they were not interested in including the airport property as part of
the request. Due to the property’s proximity to the Deer Valley Airport, the
Aviation Department has requested requiring coordination with the Federal
Aviation Administration and additional notice to prospective purchasers. These
requests are addressed in Stipulations Nos. 10 and 11.

21. Archaeology Office: 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 12.

OTHER

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

Findings

1. The PUD provides a framework for the development of the site and positions
the area for future investment.

2. The PUD contains standards that ensures development on the site will be
consistent with the area’s character and compatible with surrounding uses and
the ongoing operation of the Deer Valley Airport.

3. The PUD will further establish the site as a destination for employment uses
that maximize the site’s existing transportation infrastructure assets.

Request From A-1 DVAO
Request To PUD DVAO
Location Southeast corner of 7th Avenue and Pinnacle Peak
Road

VPC DISCUSSION:

Cases GPA-DV-3-20-1 and Z-68-20-1 were heard concurrently.

Ms. Carolyn Oberholtzer, with Bergin, Frakes, Smalley & Oberholtzer, PLLC,
and Mark Edelman with the Arizona State Land department went over the
proposals for the GPA and PUD requests as a combined presentation. She
highlighted that the changes proposed would permit a mix of Commerce Park
and Industrial uses, which is consistent with surrounding land uses north of the
Deer Valley Airport. She shared that the rezoning case will establish a land use
mix that maximizes property’s location in an employment corridor and will better
position the properties for sale by the State Land Department. She also went
over staff’s recommended stipulations for the rezoning case.

Mr. Mark Lewis asked if the site was being prepped for something specific.

Ms. Oberholtzer shared that there are pending applications on the site today but
nothing has been solidified.

Mr. Edelman shared that sites A, B & C will go to auction after receiving the
requested entitlements and he can not say who will win those bids.

CONNECT PEOPLE AND PLACES CORE VALUE; OPPORTUNITY SITES; LAND
USE PRINCIPLE: Promote and encourage compatible development and
redevelopment with a mix of housing types in neighborhoods close to
employment centers, commercial areas, and where transit or transportation
alternatives exist.
The development, as proposed, will create new housing opportunities in the area and
within close proximity to a light rail station, the educational facilities, and the North
Central Avenue Employment Center, especially via the Grand Canal Multiuse Trail.

CONNECT PEOPLE AND PLACES CORE VALUE; COMPLETE STREETS;
DESIGN PRINCIPLE: Locate parking to the rear of a site to create a more
pedestrian environment, when adequate shielding from noise and light can be
provided to adjacent established neighborhoods. On-street parking in some
areas may also promote a pedestrian environment.
The development, as required by provisions of the Walkable Urban Code, will situate
buildings to frame the street environment with vehicle parking lots situated at the
interior of the site and to allow for the creation of a comfortable pedestrian
environment along the public streets. Further, the development, as stipulated, will
screen parking from the Grand Canal and its multiuse trail.

BUILD THE SUSTAINABLE DESERT CITY CORE VALUE; TREE AND SHADE;
DESIGN PRINCIPLE: Integrate trees and shade into the design of new
development and redevelopment projects throughout Phoenix.
The development, as stipulated, will create an attractive streetscape with detached
and shaded sidewalks. The shade incorporated into the development along its
frontages will reduce the urban heat island effect and increase thermal comfort which
will make the area more walkable, bikeable, and sustainable.

CONNECT PEOPLE AND PLACES CORE VALUE; BICYCLES; DESIGN
PRINCIPLE: Development should include convenient bicycle parking.
The development, as stipulated, includes bicycle parking and bicycle facilities as a
central component of the project to facilitate bicycling as a way of life. Features
include secure bicycle parking for residents, convenient racks for guests, and a
bicycle repair station situated as a public amenity; together, these features will
complement the Grand Canal and its multiuse trail.

Staff Report: Z-56-20-4
January 20, 2021




CONNECT PEOPLE AND PLACES CORE VALUE; CANALS AND TRAILS;
LAND USE PRINCIPLES: Plan, design, and develop pedestrian linkages
between parks, open spaces, village cores, neighborhood shopping centers,
neighborhood schools, and neighboring municipalities.
The subject site is immediately adjacent to the Grand Canal which recently was

Background/Issues/Analysis

SUBJECT SITE
1. This request is to rezone 3.29 acres at the southeast corner of 3rd Avenue and
Coolidge Street from R-3 (Multifamily Residence District) and R-5 (Multifamily
Residence District) to WU Code T5:5 UT (Walkable Urban Code Transect 5:5,
Uptown Character Area).

SURROUNDING LAND USES AND ZONING
2. The proposed zoning of WU Code T5:5 UT (Walkable Urban Code Transect 5:5,
Uptown Character Area) permits a maximum height of 56 feet. The site is
currently developed with an office building. The Zoning Context Map depicts the
zoning entitlements of the subject site and the surrounding area.

Staff Report: Z-56-20-4
January 20, 2021




East: Immediately east of Title: Zoning Context Map
the subject site is a
multifamily complex which
is zoned R-5 (Multifamily
Residence District). The
zoning permits a maximum
height of 48 feet but the
existing buildings do not
exceed three stories in
height.

West: West of the subject
site across 3rd Avenue are
residential structures of a Source: Planning and Development Department
single-story and single
-family detached character. The R-3 (Multifamily Residence District) zoning
permits a maximum height of 30 feet by right, and up to 48 feet with increased
setbacks.

North: North of the subject site across Coolidge Street are various residential
structures ranging from a single-family detached character to small apartment
complex, with neither type exceeding two stories. The approximate west half of
sites immediately north of the subject site are zoned R-3 (Multifamily Residence
District) which permits a maximum height of 30 feet by right, and up to 48 feet
with increased setbacks, and the remaining sites to the east are zoned R-5
(Multifamily Residence District) which permits a maximum height of 48 feet.

South (the Grand Canal): South of the subject site is the Grand Canal which
was recently improved through the Canalscape project which brought lighting,
landscaping, and seating improvements to this section of the canal.

South (beyond the Grand Canal): South of the subject site across the Grand
Canal is a multifamily community zoned R-4 (Multifamily Residence District)
which permits a maximum height of 48 feet.

3. Located along Central Avenue and several properties east of the subject site is
the Interim Transit-Oriented Zoning Overlay District One (TOD-1). The primary
purpose of TOD-1 was to encourage an appropriate mixture and density of
activity around transit stations to increase ridership along the light rail corridor
and promote alternative modes of transportation to the automobile while the
Walkable Urban Code was developed.

Land Use Map
depicts a land use
designation of
Residential 15+
dwelling units per
acre which is
consistent with the
density proposed.

Surrounding the
subject site are
designations for
multifamily
densities including Source: Planning and Development Department
Residential 15+ dwelling units per acre to the south and east and Residential 10
to 15 dwelling units per acre to the north and west. The proposed use and
density of the subject site is consistent with the surrounding context.

5. The Encanto Village Character Plan was approved and adopted in the Phoenix
General Plan through General Plan Amendment GPA-1-19. Each of the 15
Urban Villages have a Character Plan.

The proposed project advances the following items identified in the Encanto
Village Character Plan: encourage growth along the light rail; integrating canals
into project design; and new development being consistent with adopted plans.

One such area of alignment is with the North Central Employment Center
(profile attached) which identifies the presence of approximately 770,000 young,
well-educated, workers within a 10 to 20 minute drive and projected growth of
170,000 new residents within a 30 minute drive. The proposed development will
provide housing opportunities for the growing population in proximity to the
growing employment center while also reducing the need for long vehicle
commutes.

6. Transit Oriented Title: Transit Oriented Development Strategic Policy
Development Strategic Framework Place Type Map
Policy Framework:
The Transit Oriented
Development Strategic Policy
Framework is part of the
City’s General Plan. The
framework identifies planning
typologies to describe urban
environments in terms of
appropriate scale and
intensity

As depicted on the right, the
subject site is located within
one-quarter mile from two
light rail stations. The nearest
station, Central and
Campbell, is identified in the
Strategic Policy Framework
as a Minor Urban Center Source: Planning and Development Department
Place Type.

The Minor Urban Center Place Type is characterized by two to five story
buildings with allowances for up to seven when incentive criteria are met or
when a special circumstance exists. The proposed development, using the
Walkable Urban Code and depicting a height of four stories, is consistent with
the Minor Urban Center Place Type.

7. Uptown Transit Oriented Development Policy Plan:
The subject site is located within the Uptown TOD Planning Area which is
depicted on the following page. The policy plan adopted for the Uptown TOD
District provides a blueprint for fully achieving the transformative potential of
light rail in a sustainable manner. Changes advocated in the plan can lower
transportation costs for residents, create new business opportunities, encourage
active, healthy lifestyles, ensure Phoenix increases its competitive advantage in
the global marketplace, and improve prosperity by growing the economy in
locations with existing infrastructure and public services.

While the subject site is Title: Uptown TOD Planning Area
not mapped for a specific
recommended transect for
redevelopment, the
Uptown TOD District Plan
provides the following
direction relevant to the
subject site:

Activating the Grand
Canalscape:
The Uptown TOD Plan
describes at length the
importance and
opportunity of embracing
the Grand Canal as an
open space amenity, as a
regional active Source: Planning and Development Department
transportation trail, and as
waterfront. While the Canalscape Project is complete, it is the projects adjacent
to the Grand Canal that will enliven the waterfront.

Increase the Population Using Alternative Transportation: .
The Uptown TOD Plan includes several measurable outcomes focused on
increasing ridership on the light rail, increasing the number of individuals riding
bikes or walking to work, and decreasing the number of Vehicle Miles Traveled
(VMT). The proposed project will position new households within walking and
bicycling distance to jobs, schools, and major park facilities.

PROPOSAL
8. Site Plan
As depicted on the conceptual site plans and elevations on the following pages,
the proposal is for four floors of housing with five levels of parking located at the
interior of the site. The site plan depicts one point of vehicular access from
Coolidge Street. The site plan depicts 218 dwelling units with 46 studios, 116
one-bedroom, and 56 two-bedroom units. At a rate of 1.3 parking spaces per
studio and 1.5 spaces per one and two bedroom units, the code would require
318 parking spaces but due to the proximity to light rail, a 10 percent reduction
is applied for a total of 287 spaces.

Title: Conceptual Site Plan




Source: Rich Barber Architects

The ground floor units fronting 3rd Avenue and Coolidge Street will employ
stoop and doorwell frontages and the main leasing area oriented to Coolidge
Street will employ a storefront frontage; these ground level treatments abide by
the intent of the Walkable Urban Code to active the street frontage in addition to
detached sidewalks and trees planted between the curb and sidewalk as
required by the Walkable Urban Code.

The conceptual site plan depicts frontage types along the southern face of the



Page 321
Staff Report: Z-56-20-4
January 20, 2021




building mass to activate the interface with the canal. Staff is recommending
Stipulation No. 1 to require the frontage types along 40 percent of the canal
oriented building frontage.

9. Canal Interface
The conceptual site plan and building elevations depict measures intended to
embrace and activate the frontage to the Grand Canal including amenity areas,
common areas, bike racks, a bicycle repair station, vegetation, and a perimeter
wall comprised mostly of view fence for ground level transparency. The Phoenix
Zoning Ordinance governs canal interface through the design standards
contained in Section 507 Tab A.

To advance the intent of the design guidelines and the Walkable Urban Code,
staff is recommending a series of stipulations to provide additional specificity
regarding improvements to the area between the southern mass of the building
and the Grand Canal right-of-way including the following:

x Stipulation No. 1: To require Walkable Urban Code Frontage Types along
a minimum 50 percent of the canal-facing building façade.
x Stipulation No. 2: To require architectural enhancements along the canal-
facing building façade.
x Stipulation No. 3: To require large canopy shade trees to soften the canal
environment and provide thermal comfort in the amenity areas and near
the canal.
o Due to the presence of an SRP easement at this location, the
extent to which the developer will be allowed to improve this are is
unknown and, therefore, the stipulation contains the language “as
approved or modified by the Planning and Development
Department.
x Stipulation No. 4: To require shaded open space adjacent to the canal
right-of-way through the application of Section 1310.A.2 of the Phoenix
Zoning Ordinance.
o Due to the presence of an SRP easement at this location, the
extent to which the developer will be allowed to improve this are is
unknown and, therefore, the stipulation contains the language “as
approved or modified by the Planning and Development
Department.
x Stipulation No. 5: To require all walls and fences within 30 feet and
oriented-to the canal right-of-way to have a maximum opaque height of
36 inches to promote interface between the project and the canal
amenity.

STUDIES AND POLICIES
11. Tree and Shade Master Plan:
The Tree and Shade Master Plan encourages treating the urban forest as
infrastructure to ensure the trees are an integral part of the City’s planning and
development process. 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 Walkable Urban Code contains landscape standards to provide enhanced
tree plantings with a focus on thermal comfort and the conceptual site plan
complies with code requirements.

To require tree shade be integrated into the project between the southern
building mass and the Grand Canal right-of-way, staff is recommending
Stipulation No. 3 requiring large canopy shade trees, placed 20 feet on center or
in equivalent groupings, and with a minimum caliper of 3-inches at installation;
the purpose of this stipulation is to promote thermal comfort for the amenity
areas and along the Grand Canal.

12. Complete Streets Guidelines:
In 2014, the City of Phoenix City Council adopted the Complete Streets Guiding
Principles. The principles are intended to promote improvements that provide an
accessible, safe, connected transportation system to include all modes, such as
bicycles, pedestrians, transit, and vehicles. The Walkable Urban Code contains
requirements for detached sidewalks with vegetative shade which will enhance
the thermal comfort and sense of security for pedestrians passing on adjacent
sidewalks.

Staff is recommending Stipulation No. 8 to require enhanced bicycle facilities on
the site including secure bicycle parking for residents, bicycle racks for guests,
and a publicly accessible bicycle repair station near the southern edge of the
site; the purpose of these stipulations is to complement 3rd Avenue which is
identified as the Phoenix Sonoran Bikeway and the Grand Canal multiuse trail
which provides regional trail connectivity.

13. Comprehensive Bicycle Master Plan:
The Comprehensive Bicycle Master Plan is a guide for creating a culture and
environment conducive to bicycling as a viable mode of transportation. The
proximity to high capacity transit underscores the importance of walking and
bicycling in this area.




Page 324
Staff Report: Z-56-20-4
January 20, 2021




Recognizing the presence of the Grand Canal, the recently completed
Canalscape investments, the presence of the Phoenix Sonoran Bikeway, and
proximity to high capacity transit, staff is recommending Stipulation No. 8 which
requires secure bicycle parking for residents, bicycle parking for guests, and a
publicly accessible bicycle repair station.

14. Housing Phoenix:
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 the 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 proposed development 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 or
underutilized land in a more sustainable fashion.

15. 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.
Section 716 of the Phoenix Zoning Ordinance establishes standards to
encourage the provision of recycling containers for multifamily, commercial and
mixed-use developments meeting certain criteria. The provision of recycling
containers was not addressed in the applicant’s submittals.

COMMUNITY CORRESONDENCE
16. As of the writing of this report, one letter of opposition was received detailing
concerns relating to scale, privacy, traffic, the abundance of multifamily, and the
design compatibility with the historic district.

INTERDEPARTMENTAL COMMENTS
17. The Fire Department commented that the site plan must comply with the
Phoenix Fire Code and further indicated there are no problems anticipated with
the case. Further, the Department commented that they do not know the water
supply at this site and noted that additional water supply may be required to
meet the required fire flow per the Phoenix Fire Code.

18. The Public Works Department, Floodplain Management Division determined the
site is in a Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) called Zone A, on panel 1740 L of
the Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRM) dated October 16, 2013. The Public
Works Department provided Stipulation No. 10 to require the applicant follow
and document all necessary processes and improvements.

19. The Street Transportation Department provided Stipulation Nos. 6, 7, and 9 to
require traffic calming at vehicular driveways, two pedestrian connections to the
Grand Canal trail, and their standard stipulation regarding the applicant being
responsible for construction of adjacent streets, respectively.

The Street Transportation Department including the Pedestrian Safety
Coordinator further commented on the importance of enhanced pedestrian and
bicycle facilities including detached sidewalks, bicycle parking, a bicycle repair
station, and connections to the Grand Canal trail. These issues are addressed
in other stipulations or will be addressed through the application of the Walkable
Urban Code.

20. The Public Transit Department commented on the need for a robust system of
shaded pedestrian pathways with measures to delineate pedestrian crossings at
drive-aisles. These issues are addressed in other stipulations or will be
addressed through the application of the Walkable Urban Code.

OTHER
21. 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
time to properly assess the materials. This is addressed in Stipulation No. 13.

22. Based on the proximity to Sky Harbor Airport, the Aviation Department is
requiring Stipulation Nos. 11 and 12 which require recorded documents to
disclose the existence of Sky Harbor Airport to future owners and residents, and
that an avigation easement be recorded.

23. Development and use of the site are 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.

One Additional concern.

The large grassy area on the corner of 3rd and Coolidge has been used for years by the
neighborhood as a makeshift park. Families have used this area for recreation with their
children and pets. It provides for a grassy green area, in an otherwise paved jungle. You will
be taking this away from all residents, and instead of providing more greenery, will be adding
more concrete.

Here are my concerns for this project:

1. 56ft building height allowed by T5:5
2. 10 ft setback from current sidewalk, this in combination of the height will
basically provide for an entire block of apartments from the canal to Coolidge
looking directly over my fence and into my yard and house.
3. Noise, this is an extremely quiet section and adding an additional 218 housing
units will greatly increase the noise factor of the neighborhood.
4. Traffic. Hazelwood turns into 3rd ave and as a result, there is a very low traffic
density. Even with the the garage entry on Coolidge, traffic is going to greatly
increase on these streets and most likely all street parking with cease to exist.
5. Saturation. There are already 5 or 6 (possibly even more) high density
apartment complexes in this immediate area. Adding yet another complex will
adversely and disproportionately affect this neighborhood vs other
neighborhoods.
6. Historic district. This complex is almost surrounded on the 3rd ave and
Coolidge street sections by the Pierson Place Historic district. Constructing this
large complex when surrounded by a historic district diminishes the intention of
having a historic district. The proposed elevations are quoted as “blending in” yet
it looks like every other apartment complex built.

This project adversely affects my property disproportionately as I am on the
corner of 3rd and Hazelwood and this apartment complex will be towering over
my house, and on the entire east side of my property I will now stare at 56ft of
apartment building.

Good morning, Adam –

I apologize but I believe I failed to answer one of your primary questions,
expressed via Maura, regarding whether the property is currently
approved for development. The answer is both yes and no… please allow
me to explain.

The property is currently zoned R-5 which generally means they could
build to a height of 48 feet.

However, the applicant has elected to pursue additional zoning
entitlement under the Walkable Urban Code. The process will take 4-6
months and include 3 public hearings and a neighborhood meeting.
During this process, the site plan may change and evolve in response to
community concerns and priorities. I recommend putting your concerns in
writing and sending them over to me. I also suggest reaching out to the
applicant’s representative, Ben Tate, to express yours concerns early on.

In the coming weeks, I will be reviewing the proposal in greater detail.

Kind regards,

Nick

Subject: Re: Z-56-20 (3rd Avenue and Coolidge)

Thanks for the response. So I am in the house directly across from this and
will be affected greatly as most of my exposure is to the east where the
current donor network building is. This picture is what I see from most of
my house. I estimate that these trees are approximately 30ft tall and
from what I have seen, it looks like the building will be 56ft tall. Also,
correct me if I am wrong, but the building will only be setback 10 ft from
the current sidewalk?

If this is the case, how can I expect any modicum of privacy? Not to
mention, that all I will be able to see from my windows will now be
building.

How does a project this large get approved so close to a historic
residential neighborhood? It destroys any point in trying to preserve the
original feel of the neighborhood.

I am greatly distressed by this news and also would like to know if there is
an estimated time when construction will begin.

Thanks,
Adam

Village Planning Committee Meeting Summary
Z-56-20-4

Date of VPC Meeting January 26, 2021

Request From R-3 and R-5
Request To WU Code T5:5 UT
Proposed Use Multifamily Residential

Location Southeast corner of 3rd Avenue and Coolidge Street

VPC Recommendation Approve per staff recommendation

VPC Vote 15-1-0, motion passes with Farina, Ammon, Ender,
Fitzgerald, Adams, Keyser, Kreitor, LeBlanc, Sanchez,
Jones, Solorio, McCabe, Bryck, Vice Chair Williams, and
Chair Shore in favor; Smith in dissent; and none in
abstention.

VPC DISCUSSION & RECOMMENDED STIPULATIONS:

One speaker card was received on this item from an individual wishing to speak
in opposition to the request.

During this item, Becker was unavailable by audio or video and did not vote on
the item. For the purpose of the vote, he is considered absent reducing the
quorum to 16 members (10 being needed for a quorum).

STAFF PRESENTATION

Klimek, staff, provided an overview of the site, the request, the proposal, and the
recommendation. Located at the southeast corner of 3rd Avenue and Coolidge
Street, the site is currently occupied by an office complex, and the request is to
rezone the property from R-3 and R-5 to the Walkable Urban Code Transect 5:5
Uptown to allow for multifamily redevelopment. The site is within 0.25 miles of
light rail, multiple schools, and immediately adjacent to both the Phoenix Sonoran
Bikeway (3rd Avenue) and the Grand Canal which position the property at the
junction of two major bicycle routes.

The request is consistent with the General Plan Land Use Map designation of
Residential 15+ dwelling units per acre and with the Transit Oriented




Page 341
Development Strategic Policy Framework which is identified as supporting
intensity of 2 to 5 stories and up to 7 when certain bonus criteria are met.
Further, the proposal will advance the Canalscape Catalyst Project identified in
the Uptown Transit Oriented Development Policy Plan.

The proposal for a 4 story multifamily complex with 218 units includes shaded
and detached sidewalks along 3rd Avenue and Coolidge Street and “frontage
types” to activate the streetscape environment. The elevations and conceptual
site plan depict measures to engage and activate the Grand Canal including
frontage types oriented to the canal, plazas and amenities between the building
and the canal, and low walls designed to embrace the waterfront.

Staff is recommending approval, subject to 13 stipulations, on the basis of the
request being consistent and aligned with the recommendations of the Phoenix
General Plan, the TOD Strategic Policy Framework, the Uptown TOD Policy
Plan, and the Housing Phoenix Plan.

Stipulation Nos. 1 – 5 seek to promote a strong interface with the Grand Canal.
Stipulations Nos. 6 – 8 seek to promote a safe and comfortable environment for
pedestrians and bicyclists. Stipulation Nos. 9 – 13 include standard language
pertaining to street improvements, removing the site from the special flood
hazard area, aviation disclosures, and archaeology.

APPLICANT PRESENTATION

Jason Morris, of Withey Morris, introduced himself, his client, the project, and
the change happening in this area. Trinsic Residential has done many projects
throughout the region and their investment model is to hold their properties long
term due, in large part to their ownership structure which includes the Texas
Teachers’ Retirement Fund.

The property is currently an office complex but its tenant, the Donor Network of
Arizona, has relocated to Tempe. There is a concentration of multifamily
development here because of the urban core, because of the transit overlay, and
because of the transportation patterns in the area. The developer views this
location as an excellent opportunity for multi-modal transportation with the
adjacency to the Grand Canal, the Phoenix Sonoran Bikeway, and the light rail
along Central Avenue. Unlike the nearby multifamily residential projects, these
projects did not embrace the canal nor their street frontages. The subject site
currently is entitled for 4 story multifamily development, the developer is seeking
to transition this entitlement to the Walkable Urban Code to yield a better and
more context-appropriate project.

Multiple city adopted policies call for this level of intensity at this location
including the General Plan, the Transit Oriented Strategic Policy Framework, and
the Uptown Transit Oriented Development Policy Plan. The location is ideal to




Page 342
leverage the city’s investment in the light rail and in the Canalscape
improvements and the project is designed to embrace these policies and
investments.

The Walkable Urban Code is a newer zoning category that is much more
restrictive or directive in terms of the types of things that should be done in the
project while also being more flexible in other ways. He then provided an
overview of the site plan and renderings focusing on the street environment, the
canal interface designed to create more eyes and interaction onto this waterfront,
and the building architecture which includes offsets, recesses, and a variety of
materials to break up the mass of the building. The project is designed with units
wrapped around the parking structure which will not be visible from the perimeter.

Through the neighborhood outreach efforts which included an additional meeting
with the Pierson Place Historic Neighborhood, stakeholders raised a series of
concerns and the plan responds to these as follows:
• On Street Parking. Parking is provided in excess to the amount required
by code. To reduce the likelihood of street parking, the project was
designed to make street parking less convenient than garage parking for
future tenants. As a buy-hold builder, tenant retention is important to the
ownership group they are therefore conscious that parking must be
sufficient. Further, the applicant has agreed to work with the city to prohibit
on street parking along the 3rd Avenue and Coolidge Street frontages.
• Traffic. The development is served by a single-point of vehicular access
located at the far northeast corner of the site to reduce westbound traffic
through the neighborhood and to reduce vehicle conflicts with the
bikeway.
• Height. The site is currently permitted to build 48 feet and four stories and
the request for 56 feet and four stories is intended to allow for higher
ceiling heights. The increase in height from 48 to 56 feet will be
imperceptible from ground level and produce a significantly better project.
• Publicly Accessible Open Space. The plan includes a public amenity area
in the southwest corner of the site with a bicycle fix-it station, bike racks,
seating, and shade. The plan also includes publicly accessible lawn areas
and seating along the canal frontage with lush landscaping and a
pedestrian connection into the project.
• Trash Collection. Waste collection will be provided by a private contractor
with all dumpsters located within the parking structure which will reduce
noise.

He concluded by reiterating that the site is permitted for high density multifamily
currently, how the project embraces alternative transportation as an amenity in a
manner consistent with city policy and investments, and will create an enhanced
canalscape including an active interface with publicly accessible open space and
amenities.

QUESTIONS FROM THE COMMITTEE

Solorio: Does the project include affordable units?
• Morris: No, while there is a need in the region, there is currently no
affordable housing program which would provide an even approach. If
such a program were in place, the applicant would participate.

Adams: What are the price-points for units, the size of units, and the projected
impact on nearby property values?
• Morris: The units will rent from $1,300 – $2,000. The project includes a
mix of unit sizes. Trinsic has studied the issue of property values in the
vicinity of their projects and has found that their projects produce an
increase in values beyond the increase projected by the market baseline.
He added that this trend is not universal for all multifamily projects but
because Trinsic is in it for the long-haul, their projects are well-designed,
well-managed, and well-maintained long term.
• Adams: Expressed concern over how the landscaping and architectural
design elements will likely be unsuccessful in breaking up the mass of the
building in reality.

Smith: Is this a 4 or 5 story building, is there an opportunity to reduce the height
of the building, and are they concerned about security with the site being so open
to the canal? She added concern that parking does not seem sufficient and noted
that it will likely spill over into the neighborhood.
• Morris: There will be a limited number of premium units that have an
interior staircase to a mezzanine level; that the applicant recognizes that
parking is an important consideration for long-term tenant retention and
has therefore studied the topic extensively; and that, while the project
does place more eyes on the canal, security measures include a perimeter
fence, access controlled gates, and all perimeter doors to the building
being locked.

The site is zoned for high-intensity multifamily, identified for high-intensity
residential in the General Plan, located nearly adjacent to the light rail, and
along two major alternative-transportation routes and the proposal
embraces these concepts utilizing the Walkable Urban Code which is
recommended for these types of circumstances. Change can be
challenging especially when it comes from “left field” but all publicly
accessible policy points to this being an area to accommodate growth. He
concluded this point by sharing that there are no single-family, owner
occupied homes north of Coolidge, and that the applicant has worked
extensively with owners west of the subject site to resolve concerns.

The development will include security measures such as a perimeter
fence, access-controlled gates, and all perimeter doors to the building
being locked.




Page 344
Ammon: What improvements are proposed at the 3rd Avenue bridge over the
canal, do the ground floor units have direct street access, is open space being
provided beyond code requirements, and does the project include photovoltaic
energy productions?
• Morris: There will be an open masonry portal that will further enhance and
complement the canalscape improvements. The ground floor units along
3rd Avenue and Coolidge Street have stoop and doorwell frontages and
the lobby will be a storefront. The project will have 12 percent open space
compared to the 5 percent required by code. To reduce the potential for
overflow parking and interference with the bikeway, they will work with the
city to prohibit on street parking.
• Gosselink: Todd Gosselink introduced himself as the developer and
explained that they are proud to include a photovoltaic array on the
building. One of their earlier projects, Aura Watermark, on the north shore
of Tempe Town Lake included a $150,000 solar array and was the first
market-rate, multifamily project, in Arizona to include solar energy. They
currently have a project at Central Avenue and Indianola Avenue with a
$750,000 solar array. Trinsic recognizes the value of solar as long term
investors and this project will have a $750,000 – $1,000,000 solar array on
the rooftop in addition to other efficiency enhancements.

PUBLIC COMMENTS

Frank Paoletti introduced himself and state that he lives on Coolidge Street west
of the subject site and has livered there for 22 years and knew some of the
original owners. He expressed concerns related to parking, safety, and traffic
noting that Coolidge does not have sidewalks west of 3rd Avenue. He asked
whether the streets, sewers, and other infrastructure can accommodate another
218 units and 436 cars daily.

APPLICANT RESPONSE

Morris responded that traffic and on street parking had been early concerns from
the neighborhood and the plan had been revised to address these issues. He
added that code could have required less parking but, given its importance to
retaining tenants, the plan includes structured parking in excess of that required
by code. Regarding traffic, the site is zoned for high-intensity development and is
developed as an office complex, and therefore, the proposed multifamily complex
will replace traffic and infrastructure impacts already present on the site.

Subject: rezone 3.29 acres located at the southeast corner of 3rd Avenue and Coolidge Street
Date: Monday, January 25, 2021 2:55:26 PM




Alhambra Village Planning Committee

Regarding: 7. Z-56-20-4: Presentation, discussion, and possible recommendation regarding a
request to rezone 3.29 acres located at the southeast corner of 3rd Avenue and
Coolidge Street from R-3 (Multifamily Residence District) and R-5 (Multifamily
Residence District) to WU Code T5:5 UT (Walkable Urban Code, Transect 5:5,
Transit Uptown Character Area) to allow multifamily residential.
The Planning Commission will consider this request on February 4, 2021.

The proposed zoning change requested by developers to meet WU code benefits for the
property that used to be known as the donor network site will indeed justify the time and
money spent developing this code. However, the changes proposed fail to meet a walkable
urban situation for residents along Coolidge street. The development would be more
appropriate along a main thoroughfare with existing sidewalks and perhaps even bike lanes.
Density of this level is also questionable in a neighborhood already afforded zoning for level
commercial residential 3 and 5 which was in place when the neighborhood was registered on
The National Historic Register.

The largest concern voiced by residents is generally described as ‘traffic’. To be sure we
understand and observe daily the increased ratio of cars to driveway parking available or
even cars to designed, planned parking in recent multi-unit developments.   Streets are
parked bumper to bumper: vehicles, both sides. Cyclists, pedestrians, runners, dog
walkers, baby strollers all use active traffic lanes. Delivery vehicles are forced to
double park… access for police, ambulance fire equipment is limited and restricted.
Traffic is sometimes defined as the number of trips in and out of a property. More and
more this traffic includes all sorts of deliveries. Currently neighbors are delivered of
something more than half a dozen times a day. Multiply that by two hundred and too
many units! The driveway for this property becomes ingress/ egress for hundreds of
deliveries and an increasingly noticeable traffic hazard for cyclists, pedestrians, dog
walker, toddlers on tiny bikes, moms with strollers…
It is projected that development residents will avail themselves to grand canalscape
project and light rail as a means of going places, but for those excursions to retail
opportunities (some not so very far, but not on canal or train lines) and others when
delivery is not used, people make trips in their cars. Their guests park where there is
space…increased vehicle trips, count them again!
There are limited sidewalks on Coolidge Street. All bike, pedestrian, dog walkers,
children waiting for busses, yes, this will happen again, runners, children going to
school, (there are several proximate), stroller-brigade, toddlers on tiny bikes with
training wheels and parents following along slowly along at decreased rates of speed to
supervise, or just folks going out for a meal or coffee must walk in the street. They run
the gamut along both sides of the thoroughfare of stationary parking, travel lanes
cluttered with delivery vehicles, moving vans, ubers and other gig parcel and package
delivery, trash collectors, city vehicles, cut thru traffic as well as locals simply arriving,
or leaving their homes exiting driveways… . This hardly qualifies as “WALKABLE”.
It will be a very unsafe and not walkable district.


Page 362
Extracting a vehicle from a driveway with sight line impeded by what becomes double
parked vehicles (only for a moment, let me drop off this package…) living in the
neighborhood becomes less and less conducive to personal safety: pedestrians and
vehicles two or 4 wheeled.

Who knows what sort of lurkers find all this stationary parking a good place to while away
time waiting to steal packages delivered or spring on unsuspecting victims…? Is this
“WALKABLE” ? Or Safe? Calls for service by fire trucks, ambulances, and police are all
impeded.

Your developer is investing client’s dollars. He wants to make them a good return, but does
this need to be at the expense of livability in an Historic District? Current zoning may be dated
to earlier planning goals, but perhaps they better reflects the multiple uses of pedestrian,
bicycle and automotive traffic that prevail in our ever-denser central core. Walking and biking
along Coolidge are a chancy thing sometimes already. Let’s not go out our way to make it
worse.

Thank you, Pam Perry 304 W. Coolidge St.

P.S. In case this is not clear, I do not support these rezoning efforts for the old donor network
property!

Subject: Rezoning effort at Coolidge and 3rd Ave(Meeting Jan 26th... Item: 126 771 4317)
Date: Monday, January 25, 2021 2:49:22 PM



There is a rezoning effort happening within my neighborhood at 3rd Ave and Coolidge St. I
beg you not to allow the zoning change as it will deeply affect the traffic and parking in the
neighborhood as well as a create a hazard on the 3rdAve bike path.  I am not against the
project as much as I am against the increase in units.  Its too much added traffic and parking
into the neighborhood.  Please hear me out.

The developers are trying to increase zoning from the current R3-R5 to a WU which would
basically allow and 4+ story building increase from about 137 units to 213ish.  This apartment
complex would be situated in the  middle of the historic neighborhood rather than on a major
road (like Camelback or Central).  Currently standing in the proposed space is an office
building (formerly Organ Donors) with a private park that the neighborhood has enjoyed for
the 20+ years I have lived here.  The proposed project is at the corner of 3rd Ave and Coolidge
along the canal which coincides with the 3rdAve bike path.

Before covid, I enjoyed walking to businesses and watering hole landmarks but I still
owned a vehicle the entire time as most residents do.  While walkability is an important tool
for those of us that live in the neighborhood, most of us still need to drive to work or the store
or to get out of town.  Just because people walk occasionally does not mean that they do not
own a vehicle and use it.    On top of that, this apartment complex will be very close to the
sidewalk (like Elevation) on a neighborhood street not having the same easement houses are
required.  The front of end of the complex will face the canal while we in the neighborhood
get its backside.  We need easement within our neighborhood.  I understand the importance of
city growth, but cities that grow need to also ensure there is ample green space for the
congested masses living within such areas.  If nothing else give us that easement.

If you look at other apartment complexes in the area such as the Pavilions (Campbell and
Central), Elevation (Coolidge and Central), the Station (Central and Monterosa), you will see
cars constantly parked along the road day and night even with ample parking garages.  It
creates a hazardous congestion and unsightly view of the neighborhood.  Since Elevation was
built here on Coolidge and Central, the traffic on Coolidge St has increased with drivers flying
down the street even with speed bumps.  We also have a constant problem of cars stopping to
load or unload dangerously close to Central.  There is nothing to stop the proposed
development from having irresponsible parking and traffic from inundating the
neighborhood.  The increase in variance is going to add more cars and more
congestion.  Elevation is attractive on the website and from Central Ave but from Coolidge St
is a block monstrosity right on top of the sidewalk with a parking garage and a bunch of
parked cars all around it.  There is nothing attractive about it from Coolidge St.

While I understand I cannot stop the development nor do I necessarily want to, I just want the
city council to understand this complex is going directly into the neighborhood and has no
direct access to a major through street (like Central and Camelback).  It must cut through this
neighborhood.  The developers will try to sell to you people won't need a car, but I implore
you to look at the parking around the apartment complexes I have mentioned.  Its
Phoenix.  Most people own vehicles.  We in the neighborhood are already having to sacrifice
this private park that added much charm and use to an otherwise busy area in Phoenix but an


Page 364
additional 75 units will not help us maintain control of neighborhood streets or the added
congestion of parking.

Why has the zoning change for the area at 3rd Ave and Coolidge St now state there are to be 165 units minimum to
no maximum. This is not what the developer and lawyer stated in our neighborhood meeting. Also, what about the
parking, no one has ever addressed that and no one from the city has come to see the congestion at the end of
Coolidge St because of the other 2 apartment buildings? Nothing has been done with that problem that already
exists. Will 3rd Ave and Coolidge St have no street parking signs along with fines for violating the parking rules?

Subject: Opposition to Case #13 Z-56-20-4



I write in opposition to the rezoning application hearing for rezoning 3rd Avenue & Collidge from R‐5/R‐3 zoning to
Walkable Urban Code zoning. While I am not opposed to the development of the site, it should be within the confines
of it’s current zoning. I oppose the request for the following reasons:

 Pierson Place is one of the few historic neighborhoods in the urban core and Central/Uptown Phoenix and
fabric of it should be preserved if at all possible
 WC Code T5:5T was intended for high traffic urban mixed‐use districts with retail/office/dining uses like Central
Avenue, not the middle of a residential historic neighborhood. Even if a rezone is allowed it should be limited
to either:
o T3:2 since it is a residential neighborhood with single family homes and duplexes with a maximum
height of 30 feet
o T4:3 an area characterized by single and multi‐family residences with a maximum height of 40 feet.
 The 3rd Avenue & Coolidge location is a quiet dead end street that was never intended to accommodate the
heavy vehicular traffic the project will generate. While a traffic study has repeatedly been referenced, it has
not been shared with the neighborhood.
 The developer request to increase the unit count from the currently zoned 136 to 218 adds 80 units to the
project increasing the unit count by 59% with no justification as to why it is needed.
 Increasing the height limitations from 48 feet to 56 feet will impair the sunlight on the north side of Coolidge as
well as impede the southern site lines for homes throughout the neighborhood.
 Overflow parking from a project this size will spill into the single family homes on Coolidge, Hazelwood and 3rd
avenue which is can be witnessed daily on the streets adjacent to The Elevations on Central, The Icon and the
Lexington.

Again, I am not opposed to development of the site, but there is no reason a project should be built beyond the
currently zoning requirements which allows for 136 units and 48 feet of height on the R‐5 zoned parcels.

I thank you for your consideration.

Planning Committee

The proposed zoning change requested by developers to meet WU code benefits for the property that used to be known
as the donor network site will indeed justify the time and money spent developing this code. However, the changes
proposed fail to make a walkable urban situation for all residents along Coolidge street. The WU development would
certainly be more appropriate along a main thoroughfare Camelback, Central,7th Ave. with existing sidewalks and
perhaps even bike lanes.

Pierson Place Historic District neighborhood already is afforded zoning for commercial residential 3 and 5 which was in
place when the neighborhood was registered on The National Historic Register. Other in‐fil developers are expected to
use these parameters.

Your developer is investing client’s dollars. He wants to make them a good return, but does this need to be at the
expense of walkability in an Historic District? Current zoning may be dated to earlier planning goals, but perhaps they
better reflect the multiple uses of pedestrian, bicycle and automotive traffic that prevail in our ever‐denser central
core. Walking and biking along Coolidge are a chancy thing sometimes already. Let’s not go out our way to make it
worse.

the frequently cited developers of proposed and existing multi‐family projects will not be afforded the privilege of WU
code benefits, having to work withing current zoning. Any developer can add gates to fencing along the canal to avail
residents to easy access to that local feature. Gates in fences is not rocket science for WU code developers only. There
is little excuse to make special exceptions for this project.

The major concern voiced by residents is generally described as ‘traffic’. We understand and observe daily the increased
street parking. Streets are parked bumper to bumper: vehicles, both sides. Cyclists, pedestrians, runners, dog walkers,
baby strollers all use active traffic lanes. Delivery vehicles are forced to double park… access for police, ambulance fire

We are already seeing increased crime in automobiles parked along the east end of Coolidge, and this can be
expected to move west with parked cars!
 Calls for service by fire trucks, ambulances, and police are all impeded.

Attachments: project 56-20-4 is the Red boxed area.png



To the Phoenix Planning Commission,

I ask you to consider the gravity of the zoning change on case 56-20-4 in this Thursday’s
agenda. The property in question is not on a major thoroughfare, but deep within the historic
Pierson Place neighborhood.

The developers are asking to go from a R3-R5 to a WU because the site in question is on the
canal. While that is true, the area of the canal that the said project would be built on is relatively
small. It is only four to five historic house properties long. In return they want to increase units
from 137 to about 215, which comes out to 275 beds (as there are two bedroom units), increase the
height to 56’ in the middle of the neighborhood, have next to no easement on the street and not
supply adequate parking. On top of that, the project would not face the neighborhood. We would
get its backside. I have attached a copy of a map of the said property.

Please take the time to go the site and inspect the canal area, the bike path and the neighborhood
and you will see this is too great a sacrifice on height, easement, traffic and parking for the limited
canal scaping they will accomplish. Let them use their already in place R3-R5 zoning to help ease
traffic congestion and parking overflow.

Please vote NO on the said project. It will irreversibly hurt the historic neighborhood in which will
reside within. Again it is not on a major street, Camelback, 7th Ave and Central are all a good
distance away and 3rd Ave does not cut through for purposes of limiting traffic.

Hello,

My name is Thomas Rice; I live at 320 W Hazelwood St. I am writing this letter to oppose the zoning change from R‐3 and
R‐5 to WU Code T5:5 UT. I oppose this for the following reasons:

Not enough parking

Intrudes on Pierson Place Historic Neighborhood

Insufficient access

Takes away a green space in the neighborhood

Too congested

Thank you for your time!

To whom it concern (Phoenix Planning Commission),

My name is Michael Grosso, owner of the property at 303 W Coolidge. I am in opposition of the planning and zoning of
the proposed property at 3 ave. and Coolidge.

My concerns are:

1. 218 unit complex built on the edges of Coolidge and 3 ave, to large of a footprint for the area.

2. The building will not allow any parking on Coolidge or limited which turns the street into a single lane
road. Dangerous for riding bikes and walking.

3. Increases the walking traffic and more chance for crime.

4. Coolidge Ave. is a cut‐through for 7 ave to Central, which could be dangerous for residents.

5. The community is going to suffer with all the added walking traffic.




Thank You for you time please do not rezone the location.

Attn Planning Commission:
I own a home (306 West Coolidge) just down the street from the proposed apartment development site.
While I am all for growth & expansion, I have reservations with the proposed WU rezone. I foresee a
heavy increase in vehicular traffic, especially on Coolidge, Hazelwood & Highland. Central Ave only allows for a
right turn heading south. To travel north, the only option is to drive to 7th Ave on either street and make a
right. Again, I am all for growth, but just want to be sure that the traffic congestion issue is carefully
considered.
Thank you,
Jeff Rahm

Subject: Opposition to Application No. Z-56-20-4



I am opposed to Application No. Z‐56‐20‐4 to change the zoning from R‐3 and R‐5 to WU Code T5:5 UT located on the
Southeast corner of 3rd Avenue and Coolidge Street for several reasons including:

a) constructing a multifamily residential property with no maximum units allowed will significantly increase the traffic on
3 residential streets (Coolidge, Hazelwood, and 3rd Avenue)
b) increased traffic will increase the likelihood of pedestrian getting harmed as this is primarily a residential area
consisting of families with children and older adults
c) Other than a standard size sidewalk along the eastern edge of 3rd Avenue there is no public sidewalk on Coolidge,
Hazelwood, and other nearby residential streets. The proposal is an extremely dangerous mix of increased pedestrian
traffic walking in the street and an increase in vehicle traffic
d) Access to and from the Grand Canal pathway is from 3rd Avenue and Hazelwood which already stresses the
pedestrian and vehicle traffic in the area
e) Increasing the population density within the area will increase levels of crime and lower public safety
f) Parking along Hazelwood, Coolidge, and other nearby residential streets is restricted but does not appear to be
enforced. Additional residents and vehicles will take advantage of unauthorized street parking.

Until such time as the proponent can provide studies that these reasons have been addressed in their proposal or
provide mitigation measures to offset or compensate for this reasons, I am opposed to this application.

Zoning case 56‐20‐4. Item 13.

Dear Sir and Madam,

I am deeply troubled to know that there is a high possibility of a new build of apartment complex in our small historic
neighborhood, which we the neighbors have been in charge of making it better, cleaner , more safe and friendlier place
to live. My family and I have been living on Coolidge st since 2007 and we have been part of the transitions in the hood.
I have two small kids and two dogs, as a mother I am very concern of rezoning the corner lot and allowing some Texan
investor developer to make money from the work we did all these years (to maintain and make it a better
neighbourhood) without being considerate to the people and pets in the Pierson Place. We as human have
responsibilities to make life better for all and not just for one company!!! Life is not all about money and we have to
make the right steps to protect each other and not to allow this rezoning!
I deeply ask you to view this case as a person who lives in Pierson Place and not just as an outsider.
If they are allowed to build they should be limited to the current zoning and they should provide place ( trees, green
grass , play area for the families in the neighborhood. We are already overwhelmed by cars parked on the side walks and
fast drivers and lets not forget that 3 ave has a bike lane used by many to commute . It will put a lot of people in
danger!
This letter represents the families living at 510, 505 and 506 W Coolidge Street!

Yours truly,
Lina Money
