Public Opinion
Two letters protesting the issuance of this license have been received and are on file in
the Office of the City Clerk. The letters are from two local residents. They are
concerned that this business has been serving alcohol to customers free of charge
without a liquor license and therefore, they believe a license should not be issued to
this business. They also feel that Uptown Plaza is saturated and has sufficient liquor
licenses to meet the need and convenience of the area.

“I will only serve limited complimentary drinks to customers while they're waiting or
during service at my Nail Salon and I will check ID to ensure they're over 21. I
scheduled to take basic and management training classes to understand and follow
the rules.”
The public convenience requires and the best interest of the community will be
substantially served by the issuance of the liquor license because:
“It would provide opportunities for economic growth and additional revenue for the
community. Furthermore, having a liquor license at Nail Salon allows us to offer clients
complimentary drinks while they're waiting for services to offer clients more
entertainment options to relax and pamper. Overall, issuing a liquor license could
contribute to community development and foster a vibrant and thriving environment for
all.”

for the Public Transit Department. Further request to authorize the City Controller to
disburse all funds related to this item. The total value of the contract will not exceed

Summary
This contract will provide the City with a contractor to conduct a comprehensive and
defensible availability analysis and disparity study for the utilization of Disadvantaged
Business Enterprises (DBE). The main purpose of these services is to determine
whether any race or gender-based disparity exists in the City's federally-assisted
transit contracts. While the services are not intended to address goal-setting or
program development, the findings will provide the City with a foundation on which to
address disparities that may be found in accessing contracting opportunities by DBEs.
These services will benefit the City by identifying best practices to improve the
contracting processes, increasing the number of bidders and DBE participation in
Public Transit's Federal Transit Administration (FTA) contracts, and helping to make
administrative improvements to the DBE program. The City's last availability analysis
and disparity study were conducted in 2010, and the FTA has recommended that the
City conduct a new study.
Procurement Information
A Request for Proposal was processed in accordance with City of Phoenix
Administrative Regulation 3.10.

Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute an amendment to
Contract 155943 with United Healthcare (UHC) to extend the contract term for three
(3) additional years. Split Payment and/or Bulk Payment Administrative Services are
provided by United Healthcare for the City's retired employees and their
spouses/qualified domestic partners who enroll in coverage under AARP Medicare
Supplement Plans.
City Medicare-eligible retirees and their spouses/qualified domestic partners have the
option to have their AARP/UHC Medicare supplemental plan coverage and Medicare
Part D prescription drug plan coverage monthly insurance premiums deducted from
their monthly pension checks with no additional cost to the City's Health Care Trust or
General Fund.
Further request authorization for the City Controller to disburse all funds related to this
item throughout the life of the contract, as necessary.
Summary
The Human Resources Department recommends a three-year extension of the UHC
contract because of several factors, including:
1. Retirees and their spouses/qualified domestic partners enrolled in individual
Medicare supplemental plans would be subject to underwriting with no guarantee of
coverage and/or increase in premium;
2. Underwriting requirements vary from state to state, so enrolled participants may
encounter disruption with any changes to their plan; and
3. Changes to the retirees’ Medicare Part D (drug coverage) may be impacted by
formularies, prior authorizations and step therapy requirements, which may be
disruptive to the enrolled participants.
Procurement Information
In accordance with Administrative Regulation 3.10, normal competition was waived as
a result of a Determination Memo citing Special Circumstances - Without Competition.
Page 147
United Healthcare has been providing administrative services for the City's eligible
retirees and their spouses/qualified domestic partners.
Contract Term
Upon approval the contract will be extended through Dec. 31, 2026.
Financial Impact
Retirees pay the full cost of their Medicare supplemental healthcare premiums, and
this approach will allow them to pay their monthly premiums via automatic deduction
from pension checks. There are no additional costs to the City's Health Care Trust
Fund and no General Fund dollars will be used.

Dental Services (Ordinance S-50092)
Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to enter into an agreement
with Bobby Yang DDS, LLC., to provide dental services to the City of Phoenix Head
Start Birth to Five Program for a five-year period. The total value of the agreement will
not exceed $250,000. Further request to authorize the City Controller to disburse all
funds related to this item.
Summary
Head Start programs prepare America’s most vulnerable young children to succeed in
school and in life beyond school. To achieve this, Head Start programs deliver services
to children and families in core areas of early learning, family well-being, and health
while engaging parents as partners every step of the way.
Dental care is important for children because untreated dental problems inevitably
leads to severe pain, systemic infection and sometimes death. Also, children with
untreated dental problems often have trouble eating, have behavioral problems due to
the pain and perform poorly in school.
Head Start regulations require all children to have dental exams annually. Within the
children are ineligible for Medicaid and their families are unable to afford private dental
insurance. Unfortunately, the resources available for free or reduced-cost dental care
are extremely limited in Arizona, and the demand vastly exceeds the resources
available. For this reason, the Head Start Birth to Five funding of this service is the
only way some uninsurable children are able to receive needed dental care.
Procurement Information
Request for Qualifications RFQu-22-EDU-77 was conducted in accordance with City of
Phoenix Administrative Regulation 3.10.
One statement of qualifications was received and deemed responsive and responsible

Start is available from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services,
Administration of Children, Youth and Families. No additional General Funds are

Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to implement the October
2023 bus service changes. If approved, the service changes will take effect Oct. 23,
2023.
Summary
The Public Transit Department (PTD) is proposing to extend the reach of frequent local
bus service within the city under the proposed October 2023 local bus service
changes. An entire route, or even segment of a route, is considered part of the
frequent service network when its weekday service frequency is 15 minutes or better
from at least 6 a.m. to 6 p.m.
In Phoenix, local bus service has a minimum base frequency of every 30 minutes daily,
Monday through Sunday, although many routes have more frequent service based on
levels of ridership throughout the day. These proposed service changes focus on
weekday local bus service during peak hours (from 6 a.m. to 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. to 7
p.m.), or midday hours (from 9 a.m. - 3 p.m.). Weekday local bus service runs from
approximately 4 a.m. to past 11 p.m.
As of April 2023, 8 of 43 local/circulator routes operating in Phoenix are part of the
frequent service network, which covers 34 percent of Phoenix residents within its
service area. With the implementation of the proposed October 2023 service changes,
the frequent service network would increase to 11 routes and cover 47 percent of
Phoenix residents within its service area.
Overall, the proposed October 2023 service changes are estimated to expand the
frequent service network by covering 217,000 more residents as well as 133,000 more
jobs within its service area. Below is a brief description of the proposed service
changes, followed by details of the current service and proposed changes.

Proposed Changes
Map illustrations of proposed service changes by route: Attachment A.
Route 0: Modify weekday frequency from every 20 minutes to every 30 minutes.
Recent passenger load analysis revealed that the frequency can be reduced while not
causing overcrowding on the route as the route also overlaps with light rail service
between Van Buren Street and Camelback Road. Please note that this change is not
moving forward at this time.
Route 3: Modify weekday peak hour frequency from every 10 minutes to every 15
minutes between 35th Avenue and 32nd Street, while also expand the frequency
eastward to 44th Street, expanding the route’s contribution to the frequent service
network.
Route 7: Modify weekday frequency from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. to every 15 minutes
Page 198
between Dunlap Avenue and Baseline Road. Segments north of Dunlap Avenue and
south of Baseline Road would run at a 30-minute frequency. If implemented, operating
frequency for the route would decrease south of Van Buren Street from 10 to 15
minutes; increase between Van Buren Street and Dunlap Avenue from 20 to 15
minutes; and decrease from 20 to 30 minutes north of Dunlap Avenue. The Dunlap
Avenue to Baseline Road segment would become part of the frequent service network.
Route 16: Increase midday frequency from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. to every 15 minutes
between Baseline Road and Northern Avenue. The frequency improvement would
match the route’s current peak-hour service frequency of every 15 minutes on the
same segment, making the segment part of the frequent service network.
Route 19: Modify weekday frequency from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. to every 15 minutes
between Jefferson Street and Union Hills Drive. If implemented, frequency for the
route would increase from 30 to 15 minutes south of Jefferson Street and north of
Union Hills Drive, and frequency would decrease between Jefferson Street and Union
Hills Drive from every 12-15 minutes to every 15 minutes. The entirety of Route 19
would be part of the frequent service network.
Route 27: Increase weekday frequency to every 15 minutes during peak hours
between Bell and Lower Buckeye roads. The segment of the route north of Bell Road
would maintain 30-minute frequency.
Route 35: Increase weekday midday frequency to every 15 minutes between Lower
Buckeye Road and the Metrocenter area. The frequency improvement would match
the route’s current peak-hour service frequency of every 15 minutes on the same
segment, making the segment part of the frequent service network.
Route 70: Increase weekday midday frequency to every 15 minutes between the 24th
Street and Baseline Park-and-Ride and the intersection of 43rd and Glendale avenues.
The frequency improvement would match the route’s current peak-hour service
frequency of every 15 minutes on the same segment, making the segment part of the
frequent service network.
DASH: Following extensive outreach and community engagement conducted during
the department's Neighborhood Transit Study, PTD proposes to expand the DASH
circulator’s reach in the downtown area. The proposed expansion includes extending
the route east to 1st and Jefferson streets, where it would connect with the Fry’s
grocery store and multiple light rail connections within walking distance. Also, this
proposed change would expand the route north to Roosevelt Street via 3rd and 5th
streets to provide a transit connection to Roosevelt Row. In addition, PTD proposes to
Page 199
modify the service frequency, days, and hours to the following: implement frequency to
every 15 minutes; extend hours to 11 p.m. between Roosevelt Row and Downtown
Phoenix; and add service on weekends on the same segment.
Service Equity Analysis
Per Federal Transit Administration (FTA) regulations, a Title VI Service Equity Analysis
on each proposed service change was conducted to analyze whether the proposed
change causes a disparate impact on minority populations or yields a disproportionate
burden towards low-income populations. In summary, the proposed changes to routes
0, 27, and 70 qualify as a major service change according to the service equity
analysis policy, although the Route 0 change is not moving forward at this time. And
because the proposed changes to routes 27 and 70 are increases in service levels,
mitigation efforts are not required.
Details of the analysis for the proposed October 2023 proposed service change are
included for the Council's review (Attachment B).
Public Input Process
PTD used the locally adopted public outreach process to solicit public feedback on
proposed service changes. The public input process took place from May 8 to June 9.
Phoenix and Valley Metro staff conducted outreach utilizing posters and A-Frame signs
placed at key areas along each route to notify the public of the proposed changes and
to direct passengers to visit Valley Metro’s website to submit comments by June 9. The
proposed changes were also advertised via social media and on-board bus public
messaging announcements. A hybrid (in-person and virtual) public hearing was also
held on May 24 at Valley Metro’s offices.
In addition to above mentioned automated announcements and advertising tactics,
staff rode bus routes with proposed service changes and distributed flyers in both
English and Spanish to riders that provided a description of the proposed changes and
information on how to provide comments.
Overall, 2,679 total comments and suggestions were received about Phoenix’s
proposed service changes, with 1,209 of those registering either a positive or negative
opinion on each proposed change. The results of the public input by route are as
follows:
Route 0 - Modify weekday frequency to every 30 minutes:
· 47 Support (35%)
· 87 Against (65%)
Page 200
Route 3 - Modify weekday frequency to every 15 minutes between 35th Avenue and
44th Street:
· 122 Support (87%)
· 19 Against (13%)
Route 7 - Modify weekday frequency to every 15 minutes between Baseline Road and
Dunlap Avenue:
· 110 Support (87%)
· 16 Against (13%)
Route 16 - Modify weekday frequency to every 15 minutes between Baseline Road
and Northern Avenue:
· 125 Support (93%)
· 9 Against (7%)
Route 19 - Modify weekday frequency to every 15 minutes:
· 133 Support (92%)
· 11 Against (8%)
Route 27- Modify weekday peak hour (from 6 a.m. to 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. to 7 p.m.)
frequency to every 15 minutes between Bell Road and Lower Buckeye Road:
· 112 Support (90%)
· 13 Against (10%)
Route 35 - Modify weekday frequency to every 15 minutes between Lower Buckeye
Road and Metrocenter Transit Center:
· 111 Support (93%)
· 9 Against (7%)
Route 70 - Modify weekday frequency to every 15 minutes in Phoenix:
· 127 Support (93%)
· 9 Against (7%)
DASH Circulator - Extend route to Roosevelt Road and Third Street and add weekend
service between Roosevelt Road and Jefferson Street:
· 135 Support (91%)
Page 201
· 14 Against (9%)
The proposed changes to Route 0 is the only service change proposal receiving public
opposition through the public input process. Most of the comments received point to
the need to continue increasing transit services throughout the Valley to help promote
a more transit-friendly environment. While the reduction of weekday frequency on
Route 0 would allow the department to redistribute resources to other routes, the
change is not being recommended at this time. Several comments received suggest
maintaining frequency on Central Avenue north of Camelback Road on the route
segment that does not overlap light rail, which staff will continue to evaluate by
analyzing passenger load data.
Financial Impact
The proposed October 2023 service change will increase PTD’s operating expenses
by $3,735,000 annually. Fiscal year 2023-24 financial impact is estimated to be
$2,577,000 for a partial year implementation (Oct. 23, 2023 to June 30, 2024). Funding
is available in the Public Transit Department’s operating budget.

Title VI Analysis
October 2023 Proposed Service Changes
INTRODUCTION
Title VI of the Civil Rights Acts of 1964 prohibits discrimination on the basis of race,
color, or national origin in programs and activities receiving federal financial assistance.
Federal law requires the City of Phoenix to evaluate service changes and proposed
improvements at the planning and programming stages to determine whether those
changes have a discriminatory impact. This process will be used to evaluate bus
services in an objective manner to identify the potential for adverse, disproportionately
high, or disparate impacts to minority and/or low-income populations.
The Phoenix Public Transit Department (PTD) manages modification to the region’s
transit network through service changes. Bus service changes are coordinated
regionally and occur in April and October each year. Service modifications that are
considered major service changes require service equity analysis to be conducted and
considered by the Phoenix City Council before approval.
SERVICE EQUITY ANALYSIS POLICIES
This section describes Phoenix’s Title VI Service Equity analysis policy, definition, and
data analysis procedures. The City of Phoenix Public Transit Title VI Program is posted
at https://www.phoenix.gov/publictransit/title-vi-notice
Major Service Change
The Major Service Change and Service Equity Policy developed jointly by both the City
of Phoenix and Valley Metro defines a major service change as follows:
• Adding or Eliminating an entire route
• Expanding or reducing existing revenue miles on a route by more than 25% on
Weekday, Saturday, or Sunday
• Expanding or reducing number of route directional miles more than 25%
• A change resulting in a 25% or greater variance from the existing route alignment12
A change of 25 percent in weekly route revenue miles and/or route directional miles is the City of Phoenix threshold
for determining whether a potential transit service change qualifies as a major service change (or “substantial” service
change), according to the City of Phoenix resolution (1990). This percentage is generally an industry-wide percentage
threshold used by peer transit systems throughout the United States. The City of Phoenix resolution also specifies that
a public comment period will be initiated when a change in transit service of 25 percent or more is determined. Valley
Metro has adopted the same thresholds.
A change of 25 percent in Express/RAPID service route revenue miles and/or route directional miles does not apply
to the portion of the routes that are on the freeway/highway because there are no stops or service. Only the portion of
the routes that occurs on surface streets applies to the 25 percent threshold for a major service change.
Page 213
Title VI Analysis
October 2023 Proposed Service Changes
All service change proposals that are determined to be a major service change will
undergo Service Equity Analysis.
Adverse Effect
An adverse effect is defined as a reduction or addition in service that includes but is not
limited to: changes in span of service, changes to frequency of service, the addition of
new routes, the elimination of routes or route segments, or the modification of routes or
route segments.
Disparate Impact
When the difference in adverse impacts between minority ridership3 and/or population4
and non-minority ridership and/or population on the affected service is equal to or
greater than five percent compared to the transit system’s minority and non-minority
ridership5 and/or population, there would be a disparate impact.
Disproportionate Burden
When the difference in adverse impacts between low-income ridership3 and/or
population4 and non-low-income ridership and/or population on an affected service is
equal to or greater than five percent compared to the transit system’s low-income and
non-low-income ridership5 and/or population, there would be a disproportionate burden
impact.
Should Valley Metro or the City of Phoenix find any disparate impact or disproportionate
burden is found during the service equity analysis, steps will be taken to avoid,
minimize, or mitigate the impacts.
Equity Analysis Data Sources
The following table identifies the data source for the service equity analysis depending
on the type of service change being proposed.
The determination of the transit system and an affected route’s minority and/or low-income ridership will be derived
from the most recently completed, statistically valid regional on-board origin/destination survey.
The determination of the potential ridership for service expansion or the addition of a new service will be derived from
the most recent American Community Survey data for the census tract or census block group surrounding the expanded
route or new route.
The transit system’s ridership is separated into Local Bus Service (local fixed bus routes, key local service, light rail,
streetcar and circulator bus service) and Express/RAPID Service (commuter bus service). The affected service would
be compared to the overall transit system’s ridership by Local Bus Service or Express/RAPID Bus Service.

October 2023 Proposed Service Changes
Description of Proposed October 2023 Changes
The Public Transit Department (PTD) is proposing to extend the reach of frequent local
bus service within the city with the proposed October 2023 local bus service changes.
An entire route, or even segment of a route, is considered part of the frequent service
network when its weekday service frequency is 15 minutes or better from at least 6 a.m.
to 6 p.m.
In Phoenix, local bus service has a base frequency of every 30 minutes daily, Monday
through Sunday, but many routes have increased frequency based on levels of ridership
levels throughout the day. The proposed service changes focus on weekday local bus
service, during peak hours (from 6 to 9 a.m. and 3 to 7 p.m.), or midday hours (from 9
a.m. – 3 p.m.). Weekday local bus service runs from about 4 a.m. to 11 p.m.
As of April 2023, eight of 43 local/circulator routes operating in Phoenix are part of the
frequent service network, which covers 34% of Phoenix residents in its service area.
With the implementation of the proposed October 2023 service changes, the frequent
service network would increase to 11 routes covering 47% of Phoenix residents within
its service area.
Overall, the proposed October 2023 service changes are estimated to expand the
city frequent service network by covering 217,000 more residents as well as 133,000
more jobs within with its service area.
Following is a brief description of the proposed service changes, followed by details of
current service and the proposed changes.
Current Route Description
Route 0: The 8.6-mile route runs on Central Avenue between Van Buren Street (to the
south) and Sunnyslope Transit Center (to the north) in central Phoenix. The route
overlaps with Light Rail on Central Avenue from Van Buren Street to Camelback Road.
This route operates at a 20 minute frequency on weekdays and every 30 minutes on the
weekend.
Route 3: The 24-mile route runs on Van Buren Street in the cities of Phoenix, Avondale
and Tolleson, with the Phoenix portion operating between 83rd Avenue and the Phoenix
Zoo. During weekdays, the frequency intervals increase between 35th Avenue and
32nd Street. Currently the schedule in this area of the route is every 10 minutes during
morning peak hours; every 15 minutes from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.; every 10 minutes from 2
p.m. to 6 p.m., and then every 15 minutes until 7 p.m.
Route 7: The 25-mile route runs primarily on Seventh Street between Dobbins Road to
19th Avenue and Deer Valley Road. During weekday peak hours the route operates on
a 20 minute interval north of Van Buren Street and a 10 minute interval south of Van
Buren Street.
Page 216
Title VI Analysis
October 2023 Proposed Service Changes
Route 16: The 23.5-mile local route runs on 16th and 32nd streets between Dobbins
Road and Paradise Valley Community College. During weekday peak hours the route
operates every 15 minutes between Baseline Road and Northern Avenue.
Route 19: The 25.5-mile local route runs primarily on 19th Avenue from the 27th
Ave/Baseline Park and Ride, to 23rd Avenue and Happy Valley Road. During weekdays
the frequency intervals vary throughout the between Jefferson Street and Union Hills
Drive segment of the route. This section of the has 12 minute frequency during peak
hours and every 15 minutes during midday.
Route 27: The 22-mile local route runs on 27th Avenue between Lower Buckeye Road
and Rose Garden Lane/Deer Valley Road. The route operates every 30 minutes, seven
days a week.
Route 35: The 28-mile local route runs primarily on 35th Avenue between the 27th
Ave/Baseline Park and Ride, to 23rd Avenue and Happy Valley Road, with a deviation
to the Metrocenter Transit Center. During weekday peak hours the route operates every
15 minutes between Lower Buckeye Road and the Metrocenter Transit Center.
Route 70: The 31-mile local route runs on 24th Street and Glendale Avenue, between
the 24th Street and Baseline Park and Ride to Luke Air Force Base in Glendale. During
weekday peak hours, the route operates every 15 minutes between the 24th/Baseline
Park and Ride and the Glendale Park and Ride at 99th Avenue.
DASH Circulator The 1.5-mile Downtown Phoenix Circulator run on Jefferson and
Washington Streets between the State Capitol and Third Avenue. The weekday
circulator runs every 12 minutes from 6 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.
Proposed Changes
Route 0: Reduce weekday frequency from every 20 minutes to every 30 minutes.
Recent passenger load analysis revealed that frequency can be reduced while not
causing overcrowding on the route.
Route 3: Reduce weekday peak hour frequency from every 10 to every 15 minutes
between 35th Avenue and 32nd Street but expand the frequency to 44th Street,
expanding the route’s contribution to the frequent service network.
Route 7: Modify weekday frequency from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. to every 15 minutes
between Dunlap Avenue and Baseline Road, segments north of Dunlap Avenue and
south of Baseline Road would run at a 30 minute frequency. If implemented,
frequency changes for the route would decrease south of Van Buren Street from 10
to 15 minutes; increase between Van Buren Street and Dunlap Avenue from 20 to
15 minutes; and decrease from 20 to 30 minutes north of Dunlap Avenue. Route 7
segment between Dunlap Avenue and Baseline Road would be part of the frequent
service network.
Page 217
Title VI Analysis
October 2023 Proposed Service Changes
Route 16: Increase midday frequency from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. to every 15 minutes
between Baseline Road and Northern Avenue. The frequency improvement would
match the route’s current peak-hour service frequency of every 15 minutes on the
same segment, making the segment part of the frequent service network.
Route 19: Modify weekday frequency from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. to every 15 minutes
between Jefferson Street and Union Hills Drive. If implemented, frequency changes
for the route would increase from 30 to 15 minutes south of Jefferson Street and
north of Union Hills Drive, and frequency would decrease between Jefferson Street
and Union Hills Drive from every 12-15 minutes to every 15 minutes. The entirety of
Route 19 would be part of the frequent service network.
Route 27: Increase weekday frequency to every 15 minutes during peak hours
between Bell and Lower Buckeye roads, the segment of the route north of Bell Road
would maintain 30 minute frequency.
Route 35: Increase weekday midday frequency to every 15 minutes between Lower
Buckeye Road and the Metrocenter Transit Center. The frequency improvement
would match the route’s current peak-hour service frequency of every 15 minutes on
the same segment, making the segment part of the frequent service network.
Route 70: Increase weekday midday frequency to every 15 minutes between the
24th Street and Baseline Park and Ride and the intersection of 43rd and Glendale
avenues. The frequency improvement would match the route’s current peak-hour
service frequency of every 15 minutes on the same segment, making the segment
part of the frequent service network.
DASH: Following extensive outreach and community engagement conducted during
the Neighborhood Transit Study (NTS), PTD proposes to expand the DASH
circulator’s reach in the downtown area. The proposed expansion includes
extending the route east to First Avenue and Jefferson Streets, where it connects
with the Fry’s grocery store multiple light rail connections in walking distance. Then,
expand the route north to Roosevelt Street via Third and Fifth streets to provide a
transit connection to the Roosevelt Row. In addition, PTD proposes to modify the
service frequency, days and hours to the following: implement frequency to every 15
minutes; extend hours to 11 p.m. between Roosevelt Row and Downtown Phoenix;
and add service on weekends on the same segment.

Public Input Process
The Public Transit Department uses the locally adopted public outreach process to
solicit public feedback on proposed service changes.
The public input process takes place from May 8 to June 9, during which time Phoenix
and Valley Metro staff began the public input conduct in-person and virtual outreach
utilizing posters and A-Frame signs placed at key areas along each route to notify the
public of the proposed changes, and direct passengers to visit Valley Metro’s website to
submit comments. The proposed changes are also be advertised via social media,
interactive webinars, and a public hearing, which is scheduled from 5 to 6 p.m. on
Wednesday, May 24 at Valley Metro’s offices, Conference Room 10A.
SERVICE EQUITY ANALYSIS OF OCTOBER 2023 SERVICE CHANGES
Step 1- Magnitude of Service Change Assessment
The first step of the Title VI assessment is to measure and document the magnitude of
service change being proposed to determine if a project qualifies as a “major service
change”. For routes that cross jurisdictional boundaries, revenue and directional miles
are summarized for both total route and Phoenix portion only.

Step 1: Magnitude of Service Change Assessment Findings
Routes 0, 27, 70 and the DASH all represent a Major Service Change as the revenue
miles or directional miles will change by over 25%. These individual project proposal will
proceed to step 2 to be assessed for possible disparate impact to minority population
and/or bestowing disproportionate burden on low-income populations.

Step 2- Disparate Impact and Disproportionate Burden Determination
The second step of the service equity assessment will evaluate each major service
change to determine if it would have a disparate impact on minority populations and/or
cause disproportionate burden on low-income populations. Should Valley Metro or the
service equity analysis, steps will be taken to avoid, minimize, or mitigate the impacts.

0 passengers are 71% minority, which is more than five percent above the regional
Page 222
Title VI Analysis
October 2023 Proposed Service Changes
average of 62% for local routes. The proposed service change on Route 0 qualifies as
having disparate impact on minority populations.
Route 0 Mitigation: Current passenger loads on Route 0 indicate there are adequate
seating capacity at 20-minute weekday frequency. Transit service volume and capacity
chart on Route 0 based on Spring 2023 passenger data indicate passenger loads are
typically well below target capacity. When lowering route seat capacity by reducing
service to every 30 minutes on weekdays, assuming the same passenger demand,
there would still be more than enough transit capacity to handle to passenger loads.
Passenger load profiles by hour for Route 0 revealed a high passenger load around
2:00 PM. To handle the surge in passenger demand, larger 60-foot buses can be
scheduled to be deployed on specific trips to carry passengers.
Page 223
Title VI Analysis
October 2023 Proposed Service Changes
In addition to passenger load data showing there are room for service reduction, Route
0 service is further assisted by overlapping Light Rail service between Van Buren Street
and Camelback Road on Central Avenue. While passengers traveling to and from
Sunnyslope Transit Center and Camelback Road would experience a service reduction,
Central Avenue south of Camelback Road is also serviced by the Light Rail system that
currently operate every 15 minutes. Although Route 0 proposed service change alone is
a negative impact, the proposed change is part of the major frequency investment in the
core of Phoenix by adding more frequency on weekdays on more routes.
Route 0 service impact are mitigated by having Light Rail service on Central Avenue as
well as another frequent route nearby such as Route 7 on 7th Street.
Route 27 Findings: Based on most recent census information, Route 27 service area
are 62% minority and 32% low-income. Both indicators are at least five percent higher
than the system average for local routes. In addition, the most recent origin/destination
survey on Route 27 showed that 55% of riders are considered low-income. As a result,
Route 27 service change proposal is considered to cause disparate impact to minority
population and place disproportionate burden on low-income populations if the proposal
is a negative change.
Roue 27 Mitigation: The increase of frequency along the highest ridership segment of
the route will increase the available service. No further mitigation is required.
Route 70 Findings: Based on most recent census information, Route 70 service area
are 65% minority and 31% low-income. Both indicators are at least five percent higher
than the system average for local routes. As a result, Route 70 service change proposal
is considered to cause disparate impact to minority population and place
disproportionate burden on low-income populations if the proposal is a negative change.
Roue 70 Mitigation: The increase of frequency along the highest ridership segment of
the route will increase the available service. No further mitigation is required.
DASH Circulator Findings: Based on most recent census information, DASH
Circulator service area are 70% minority and 43% low-income. Both indicators are at
least five percent higher than the system average for circulator routes. As a result,
DASH Circulator service change proposal is considered to cause disparate impact to
minority population and place disproportionate burden on low-income populations if the
proposal is a negative change.
DASH Circulator Mitigation: DASH service changes will offer current patrons
additional destinations including a grocery store and a popular arts and entertainment
district. In addition, they will have late-night and weekend service, which is currently
lacking. No further mitigation is required.

Background/Issues/Analysis
SUBJECT SITE
1. This request is to rezone 0.86-acres
located approximately 200 feet east of
the northeast corner of 42nd Street and
Edgemont Avenue from R1-6 (Single-
Family Residence District) to R-3
(Multifamily Residence District) to allow
multifamily residential.
Zoning Sketch Map, Source: City of Phoenix Planning
and Development Department
2. The subject site is designated as Mixed
Use on the General Plan Land Use Map
and is within a Village Core. The request
for multifamily residential is consistent
with the Mixed Use designation. The
designation to the north and east is also
Mixed Use. The designation to the south
and west is Residential 3.5 to 5 dwelling
unit per acre.
General Plan Land Use Map, Source: City of Phoenix
Planning and Development Department
EXISTING CONDITIONS & SURROUNDING ZONING
3. The subject site currently contains a single-family residence. To the north of the
subject site is an automobile parts retail store, zoned C-2 (Intermediate
Commercial). To the west are condominiums zoned R-3. To the east are single-
family residences zoned PAD-10 (Planned Area Development) and to the south are
single-family residences zoned R1-6.
PROPOSAL
Page 319
Staff Report: Z-62-22-8
February 3, 2023
4. The conceptual site plan, attached as an exhibit, depicts eight two-bedroom units
with private yards, with an open space area located towards the rear of the site.
Access is proposed from one driveway on Edgemont Avenue. Units will contain
two-car garages. Additional surface parking spaces are located towards the rear of
the site. To improve pedestrian safety and increase shade coverage along the
sidewalk, a detached sidewalk will also be provided along Edgemont Avenue with
minimum 3-inch caliper trees planted within the landscape strip between back of
curb and sidewalk, per Stipulation No. 6. Staff recommends general conformance to
the site plan to ensure the site develops as proposed. This is addressed in
Stipulation No. 1.
The proposed building elevations, attached as an exhibit, depict two-story facades
that are 28 feet in height. Staff recommends Stipulation No. 2 to ensure that
building elevations contain a variety of exterior materials and Stipulation No. 3 to
limit the maximum height to 30 feet to ensure compatibility with the surrounding
built environment.
To screen the units from the adjacent single-family residences to the east, staff
recommends Stipulation No. 4 which requires minimum 2-inch caliper trees planted
along the east property line.
In coordination with the surrounding residents and to address concerns regarding
traffic and parking congestion, the applicant has agreed to apply for the On-Street
Parking Zone program in order to install no parking signs along Edgemont Avenue
from 42nd Street to 43rd Street. This is addressed in Stipulation No. 5.
PLANS, OVERLAYS, AND INITIATIVES
Page 320
Staff Report: Z-62-22-8
February 3, 2023
5. 44th Street Corridor Specific Plan
Completed in 1991, the 44th Street
Corridor Specific Plan established a
framework to provide compatibility of new
development along 44th Street from
McDonald Drive to Sky Harbor
International Airport. The Land Use Plan
(Figure 5.2) shows a MU1 (Mixed Use I)
designation for the subject site. The MU1
designation calls for single-family
residential, multifamily residential (15+
dwelling units per acre), public/quasi-
public and hotel uses. The requested
zoning designation is consistent with the
MU1 designation.
44th Street Corridor Specific Plan, Source: City of
Phoenix Planning and Development Department
6. Housing Phoenix Plan
In June 2020, the Phoenix City Council approved the Housing Phoenix Plan. This
Plan contains policy initiatives for the development and preservation of housing with
a vision of creating a stronger and more vibrant Phoenix through increased housing
options for residents at all income levels and family sizes. Phoenix’s rapid
population growth and housing underproduction has led to a need for over 163,000
new housing units. Current shortages of housing supply relative to demand are a
primary reason why housing costs are increasing. The proposed development
supports the Plan’s goal of preserving or creating 50,000 housing units by 2030 by
allowing for the development of housing units on the subject site.
7. Tree and Shade Master Plan
The Tree and Shade Master Plan has a goal of treating the urban forest as
infrastructure to ensure that trees are an integral part of the city’s planning and
development process. By investing in trees and the urban forest, the city can
reduce its carbon footprint, decrease energy costs, reduce storm water runoff,
increase biodiversity, address the urban heat island effect, clean the air, and
increase property values. In addition, trees can help to create walkable streets and
vibrant pedestrian places. Staff recommends the planting of large evergreen shade
trees within the landscape setback along the east property line and large shade
trees within the landscape area between the back of curb and sidewalk. These are
addressed in Stipulation No. 4 and 6.
Page 321
Staff Report: Z-62-22-8
February 3, 2023
8. Complete Streets Guiding Principles
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. Staff recommends Stipulation No. 6,
which requires a five-foot-wide detached sidewalk be constructed along the north
side of Edgemont Avenue.
9. 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
Section 716 of the Phoenix Zoning Ordinance 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 applicant’s
materials indicated that each unit will have recycling receptacles.
COMMUNITY INPUT SUMMARY
10. At the time this staff report was written, one letter of support has been received. In
addition, nine letters of opposition have been received. Concerns listed include
privacy, safety, density, traffic and congestion on Edgemont Avenue.
INTERDEPARTMENTAL COMMENTS
11. Water Services Department
The City of Phoenix Water Services Department has noted the property has
existing water and sewer mains that are serving or can serve this development.
12. Fire Department
The City of Phoenix Fire Department has noted that the site and/or buildings shall
comply with the Phoenix Fire Code. Further, the Department commented that the
site will require a water supply for fire flow and the quantity and design of fire
hydrants is required to comply with the Phoenix Fire Code.
13. Street Transportation Department
The Street Transportation has requested that street improvements be constructed
with all required elements and to ADA requirements. This is addressed in
Stipulation No. 7.
OTHER
14. 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 8.
Page 322
Staff Report: Z-62-22-8
February 3, 2023
15. Staff has not received a completed form for the Waiver of Claims for Diminution in
Value of Property under Proposition 207 (A.R.S. 12-1131 et seq.), as required by
the rezoning application process. Therefore, a stipulation has been added to require
the form be completed and submitted prior to preliminary site plan approval. This is
addressed in Stipulation No. 9.
16. Development and use of the site is subject to all applicable codes and ordinances.
Zoning approval does not negate other ordinance requirements. Other formal
actions such as, but not limited to, zoning adjustments and abandonments, may be
required.
Findings
1. The proposed development is consistent with the General Plan Land Use Map
designation of Mixed Use.
2. The proposal will allow for additional housing options within the Camelback East
Village Core.
3. As stipulated, the proposal will provide increased shade along the perimeters of the
site and help reduce the urban heat island effect.

approved by the Planning and Development Department.
2. All elevations shall include a minimum of two exterior accent materials, as
approved the Planning and Development Department. Examples include, but
are not limited to, materials such as brick, stone, colored textured concrete or
stucco.

Subject: Thoughts re: zoning case Z-62-22
Date: Monday, October 10, 2022 9:54:17 PM
Hi Sarah,
I am a resident in Edgemont Estates and have reviewed the proposal for rezoning the empty lot
in our area.
Please let me know if I should share this message with anyone else and/or write to the City of
Phoenix Planning and Development Department. I want to make sure that my concerns are
added to the case file.
While I appreciate wanting to add additional housing to the area, I do not support rezoning this
lot to R-3.
As a resident of this area, I would love to see this commercially zoned space used to support
small local businesses. Adding local businesses to the community helps strengthen the local
economy and add vibrancy, as well as pride, to the neighborhood. Adding 10 townhomes here
will not benefit the community or add value to the neighborhood.
If the lot is not used for commercial use, I believe it should remain zoned for R1-6. This will
help maintain privacy and safety for the existing neighbors.
Thank you for your time and assistance,
Alexandra

Hi Sarah,
My name is Laurie Cummings and I am a resident at 2826 N 43rd Street. I am writing you in regards to the property
development on Edgemont. I cannot attend the Zoom meeting so I am writing you in this matter. I am against this
build for several reasons. We were told that this would be single family homes which isn’t a problem. The problem I
have is that building two-story multi units brings more traffic, people, privacy issues, and view of our beautiful
scenic mountains. We are surrounded by tall buildings all around and this is not acceptable in a neighborhood of
homes. This two-story housing unit will invade privacy to our own residential area by over looking into our
backyards. On a daily basis we have multiple cars driving down our roads ( privately owned) therefore a multi-unit
would bring more vehicle congestion, parking problems and pedestrian traffic. Our area is private property and will
bring more traffic to our green areas for people walking dogs, etc.. Building a multi-property will bring renters,
lower property values and more crime to our neighborhood. Please take every measure to vote against this build and
bring back neighborhoods for our children to play in and enjoy our beautiful area and state. Your help is greatly
appreciated.
Sincerely,
Laurie Cummings

RE: Rezoning Case Number Z-62-22
Request to change from C-2 and R1-6 to R-3
Sarah, This memo relates to a conversation you had with Claude DeGracia on October 7, 2022
regarding Z-62-22.
The R-1-6 zoning was assigned for a purpose. A ten-unit complex is too many for that lot. Ten
units allows for 20 automobiles and that does not include visitor parking.
Ten units will cause a lot of congestion and difficulty for residents south of this property to
back out of their driveways. The addition of town units at 42nd Street and Edgemont Avenue
have caused unnecessary traffic coming into Edgemont Estates and use of our common areas
for dog walkers.
In addition, the proposed two-level units on the east side of this property will take away
privacy for Edgemont Estates residents adjacent to said property.
As a homeowner in Edgemont Estates, I object to the zoning change in case number Z-62-22.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Importance: High
Good morning Sarah,
I would like to lend my voice in complete and utter opposition of the application to rezoning
the property at 4221 East Thomas from C-2 and R1-6 to R-3. That is way too many homes on
that lot and if you multiply 10 units with 2 vehicles (minimum) at least, there will be way too
many cars that will clog the one-way street on Edgemont. The residents east of this location
will be impeded in exiting Edgemont and the residents to the north of this lot will loose their
privacy. I know this will negatively impact the single story residences already there and have
been for years.
I strongly oppose and object to the Zoning Request for Application #Z-62-22.

Re: rezoning case #Z-62-22
Attn: Sarah
Regarding the R1-6 zoning assigned for a proposed 10-unit complex: as a homeowner in Edgemont Estates, I feel
that 10 units is far too many for that small lot. The number of cars would cause considerable congestion in this small
area. In addition, the proposed units would greatly affect the privacy for Edgemont residents adjacent.
I object to the zoning change in case #Z-62-22. Thank you.
Respectfully,

Sarah this is to tell you that I object to the request to change the zoning on this project over on Edgemont it will lead
to too much car congestion and the lot cannot accommodate that many houses on that small lot it will destroy our
neighborhood which is very park like too many houses too many cars too much traffic congestion and we would
lose our privacy in our neighborhood so I object to the changing of the zoning to our three that’s not gonna work

As President of Edgemont Estates Homeowners Association I speak for all seventeen (17)
homeowners of our association.
We are very opposed to the rezoning of the properties specified in this application.
Our serious concerns are the proposed number of units (10), the type of unit (town-homes) the
height of the units (2 story at 30"), the inadequate number of parking spaces for ten 2-bedroom
townhomes (only 15), only proposed five (5) parking spaces for guests, and the too-narrow
set-back on the east side of the property which is behind four of our homes.
We are very concerned of the additional noise factor, the increase in traffic to Edgemont Ave.
which is a cul-de-sac and potentially a large increase in vehicles driving past our homes and
using the cul-de-sac to turn around.The proposed parking is not enough and there will be a
substantial increase in street parking in front of our homes.
Edgemont Estates HOA is NOT supporting this rezoning request.
Respectfully submitted,

Hi Greg,
I’m unable to attend tonight’s property owner meeting regarding the zoning change for 126-02-
046B, but I wanted to provide my support for this change. As a resident of more than 20 years
at 4133 E. Edgemont Avenue, I very much support the development plans for that property. The
similar development that occurred on the parcel just to the west of this (Edgemont 12) was a
positive change to the neighborhood and I had also supported that.
Thank you,

Date: Tuesday, January 31, 2023 1:54:34 PM
Please note my objection to this zoning change. The density increase in this neighborhood on
the east side of 42nd St. has already degraded the neighborhood. To add contiguous areas of
such density will materially affect the existing residents in a negative way. Property values
will decrease, the city will ultimately lose tax revenue. The existing zoning plan is quite
sufficient. There are no extenuating circumstances. This area and the proposed PAD areas
around it are not in the best interest of the neighborhood or the City.

Meeting Summary
Z-62-22-8
QUESTIONS FROM THE COMMITTEE:
Ms. Christina Eichelkraut inquired if the development is market rate housing. Mr. Lally
replied affirmatively.
PUBLIC COMMENTS:
Ms. Susan Traylor introduced herself as a long-time resident in opposition. Ms. Traylor
stated she was unaware of the changes made to the density. Ms. Traylor is concerned
with the ingress/egress onto Edgemont Avenue and stated a change in zoning may set
a precedent for the neighborhood and affect property values.
Ms. Patricia Powell introduced herself as neighbor in opposition. Ms. Powell stated she
was not made aware of the changes made by the developer, but she is still opposed to
the proposal. Ms. Powell expressed concern with the dumpster bin as all the residents
around the property have singular trash bins. Ms. Powell shared that zoning regulations
exist to protect from additional land uses and the proposal does not fit with the
neighborhood as she referenced city materials to protect existing land uses to end her
statement.
Mr. David Teel introduced himself as a property owner on Edgemont Avenue in
opposition. Mr. Teel echoed the sentiment of opposition for Ms. Traylor and Ms. Powell.
Mr. Teel expressed concern with the lowering of his property value.
Mr. Dave Jackson introduced himself as a long-time resident and the president of the
Rancho Ventura Neighborhood Association in opposition. Mr. Jackson expressed
concerns with the density and shared that the property to the west (Edgemont 12) has
had a hard time selling, and the neighborhood would prefer a single-story, single-family
home instead.
Mr. Neal Haddad introduced himself as neighbor in opposition. Mr. Haddad stated there
has not been compromise on this project from the beginning. Mr. Haddad stated a lack
of communication between the developer and residents nearby as many residents were
not aware of changes made to the density. Mr. Haddad echoed Ms. Powell’s
disapproval of the quality of the units, dumpster, and zoning changes.
Mr. Jason Baker introduced himself as a neighbor in opposition. Mr. Baker stated the
neighborhood is quiet and on a dead-end street, the north part of the site belongs to the
commercial property and should not be included in the rezoning case, and this project
would largely impact the overall neighborhood negatively.
APPLICANT RESPONSE:
Mr. Lally replied that the proposal is not as tall or dense as the project to the west, they
will provide ample setbacks and guest parking, and will provide an enhanced frontage
that is compatible with the surrounding area.

RE: Support for Z-62-22-8 (42nd Street and Edgemont Ave.)
Dear Ms. Escolar:
My company owns a property near the property subject to the above referenced rezoning. I followed
the recent approval of the Camelback East Village Planning Committee related to the rezoning of a
vacant lot near 42nd Place and Edgemont. I understand that Emery Lane Homes is planning to develop
new townhomes on the project. I reviewed Emery Lane’s website and they look to be delivering high
quality projects in Phoenix, and excited for their investment in the area.
I also understand that the developer made changes to their project including dropping the density,
limiting it to two stories and adding landscaping. I appreciate the developer’s willingness to work with
the neighbors.
I support this project and look forward to seeing new townhomes on this vacant lot.
Sincerely,

of 42nd Street and Edgemont Avenue Proposal: Multifamily residential Applicant: Sean J. Doyle,
Tiffany & Bosco, P.A. Owner: 4211 Thomas, LLC Representative: Mark Tomecak, Architect
We would like to submit comments for ourselves, James and Virginia Borst at 4133 E. Edgemont
Avenue. We live about 3 or 4 parcels from this property and we are very much in support of the
proposed development to build 8 units on this property. We have also spoken to several of our
other neighbors on Edgemont Avenue west of 42nd street and they are also in support of this
development. Anyone else from the neighborhood “association” does not speak on our behalf. The
association meetings are generally attended by about 7 to 9 residents and does not represent a
majority of the neighborhood.
The development directly to the west of this proposed parcel is a multi-family property that was
developed from single-level apartments into 12 individually owned units that are 2 and 3 stories tall,
called the “Edgemont 12”. The previous apartments on this parcel attracted low-income renters
with several problems that involved a lot of police activity with fighting in their common areas and
disturbances. The current development has attracted new individual owners and wonderful
neighbors. This proposed 8-unit development will provide a similar improvement. More neighbors
walking the neighborhood with their children and dogs will be another improvement to the overall
safety and community feel. The proposed 2-story units will also help to retain the views of
Camelback Mountain that the 3-story units at the Edgemont 12 currently have from their balconies.
The property to the east of this proposed development is a PUD with several patio-home style units
with a community pool. This new development will blend really well between these two properties.
There are 4 basement homes also on this street across from this parcel and 3 of those 4 residents
seem to strongly oppose this 8 unit development. We have lived in our home long enough to
remember when those basement homes were developed and a similar zoning change was required,
and we also supported that at the time. We appreciate the risk and investment that the developers
are making in our neighborhood to make this improvement.
Thank you,

Subject: Support for Z-62-22-8 - 42nd Street and Edgemont Ave.
Dear Ms. Escolar:
I own property in the area located at 2600 N. 44th Street, it’s a large office building and we are very familiar with our
tenant needs and the needs of the building. I reviewed the recently approval of this project within the Camelback East
Village, and I want to also lend my support to this case.
As an area property owner with significant investment in the area, I strongly support other property owner’s
investments in the area, especially when they are providing quality housing options for the area. The corner of Thomas
and 44th Street is a significant employment corridor, and there is a need for additional housing options nearby.
Additionally, the subject property is currently an underutilized vacant lot. We have seen an uptick in homelessness here
in the Phoenix area and have had to hire security patrols to try and mitigate the issues with homelessness, any vacant lot
can quickly become an attractive nuisance for the surrounding areas.
As an area landowner, we urge the Planning Commission and the City Council to support the case and support the local
property owners.
Thank you,

Hello,
I am writing to submit my opposition to this change in Zoning for a 3/4 acre lot where a
developer is trying to build 12 units. I strongly oppose this zoning. Putting such a big amount
of units in a lot where a single home once stood is crazy and shows this developer does not
care about our neighborhood only how much money he can make, if allowed.
This does not fit in our neighborhood. Our neighborhood is beautiful and we will continue to
oppose to this type of development.

RE: Z-62-22-8 north east corner of 42nd ST. & Edgemont Ave.
When the builders sell their buildings & leave, we are stuck with the
increased traffic & parking problems forever. We oppose the change of
zoning to allow more buildings than the present zoning. There will be
no restrictions on Air B&B. Edgemont Ave. is already full with current
resident vehicles. We do not need this type of density. This is a single-
family residence area.

Regarding Item #5, Case # Z-SP-8-22-8 OPPOSED
Regarding Item #6, Case # Z-62-22-8 OPPOSED
This community is made up of single family residences and to even have a builder consider erecting 10 to 15 high
rise units is just ludicrous. There are plenty of open spaces to do this, not dwarf our little community with homes
towering over our back yards.
NO MORE BUILDING THAN THE PRESENT ZONING ALLOWS. DO NOT CHANGE THE ZONING CODE!
My husband and I are 100% OPPOSED to Item #6 and Item #5.
Thank you for hearing our voice.

In reference to Item #6 and case # Z-62-22-8:
I am a homeowner in Edgemont Estates, and I strongly oppose the proposed zoning change
from single family to high density multi-family for this property. Parking is already an issue
here. The proposal would create multiple problems.
Thank you for your consideration.

To Whom It May Concern:
This letter is to voice my opposition to the proposed zoning change to the portion of 4221 E
Thomas that is zoned R1-6 and borders Edgemont to the south.
This proposed development is entirely to dense for the neighborhood. When the lot was
purchased, Emery Lane Homes marketed to the public on its website that it intended to build
luxury single family homes in accordance with the zoning. Some time mid 2022, they changed
directions and have been marketing 10 townhomes at this location on their site, a density for
which it has not been approved.
Not only does the density not conform to the neighborhood, but the proposed development
would be very similar to the development, Edgemont 12 to the west. This development was
not embraced by the neighborhood and the concerns that the neighborhood have
materialized. These homes are not desirable to the public and took an average of 609 days to
sell. This is an extraordinary amount of time during a good housing market. This time on
market exceeds the average days on market during the years that it took to sell by as much as
10x as long. Currently, there are two on the market and they are not selling. One is
approaching the average days on market and the other will soon be double the days on
market. This comparison is relevant as what is being proposed is even less attractive, more
dense, and comes with the first dumpster in our neighborhood!
Not withstanding that lack of appeal and conformity to the neighborhood, the additional
traffic, congestion, and parking is a burden placed on the surrounding neighbors that they
should not be subjected to. In addition, it was made clear in a comment by the developer's
representative, that we should not expect this development to be of the same quality which
we have become accustomed to with Emery Lane Single family homes. Even with this "lower
quality" proposed development, they have stated a proposed selling price of $800,000. This
would put the $/sq ft at $500/sq ft. The condos to the west have not been able to sell at
$325/sq ft.
It is reasonable that the neighbors adjacent to this proposed development should expect the
zoning to remain as it has been. This lot has always been occupied by one single family home
and a detached garage. While the zoning allows for greater density that just one home, it is a
misuse of the space to rezone this into something that has already proven to be problematic,
would be eggregious misuse of power and would diminish the value of the homes nearby and
being a taking from the existing homeowners.

The developer has not been willing to consider any alternatives despite the fact that they
advertised single family homes in this location when they originally purchased.
Thank you,

In reference to A.R.S. Section 38-431.02 AND Z-62-22-8 & z-sp-8-22-8
I am writing for 3 homeowners at different properties.
Myself Lisa Rovinsky at 2812 N. 43rd street
Cinda Blackledge & Stephen Saridakis at 2818 N 43rd street
The 3 of us OPPOSE the revision of Zoning completely.
I am a fairly new wonder since May 2022.
Cinda and Stephen have owned their property since 1988.
There are so many issues that we are extremely concerned with:
Two way street blocked on both sides due to too many cars on the street and issues passing
each other while driving with cars parked out front of the lot.
The no restriction of AIR BNB is the highest concern.
The loss of privacy of our neighbors directly to the East of the lot. Patios and back doors and
windows will no longer have privacy due to the multilevel structure with windows looking
down upon their properties.
We live in the culdesac/dead end of Edgemont. I am on the corner at 2812, and will constantly
have to deal with people driving to the dead end and turning around all day and evening.
Our property values dropping due to this rezoning is a huge concern.
These are the major of many concerns.

Subject: Camelback East Village Meeting 2/7/23: opposition to items 5 and 6
Date: Tuesday, February 7, 2023 4:21:11 PM
We are writing to oppose item #5 and #6 scheduled to be voted on at tonight's 2/7/23 meeting.
The application case number for item #6 is Z-62-22-8.
We are also registered for the virtual meeting tonight but sending this written opposition
separately. My wife (Lindsay Teel/linzua@gmail.com) registered for the meeting.
We have owned the single-family residence located at 4213 E. Edgemont Ave, PHOENIX, AZ
85008, for about 15 years since it was newly constructed. It is a large semi-custom home with
a large lot. It is bordered on both sides by 3 similar homes. Each home has a fully finished
basement as well. They have enjoyed views of the mountains from the front yard for this
entire time.
The Rancho Ventura Neighborhood is compromised almost entirely of single-family homes
with large lots and long-time home owners. Most of the streets currently have multiple homes
in the process of being either completely remodeled or with new high-end single-family
construction. Comparable homes to ours in this neighborhood are now selling for 1.3M+.
Homes that need remodeling and that are not as modern as ours or will require new
plumbing/electric are still selling for 700K-1M.
This neighborhood is up and coming due to its proximity to the Arcadia area and the
availability of the homes sites comparable to that area.
Edgemont Ave itself contains the 4 modern construction homes referenced above and a long-
standing patio home community ending in a cul-d-sac. The patio community also consists
primarily of long-time home owners. The patio homes are large with large lots. They are all
single story homes. They are also detached and contain two car private garages.
A few years ago a rundown lot with some limited alterantive non-single family zoning was
sold and the new owners allowed to develope 12 multi-story townhomes. Luckily the location
of this property did not obstruct the mountain views. The builders sought to build them higher
and add more units but theis committee did not permit it. Those properties added to the
volume of vehicles on Edgemont considerably and to parking on the street. They also do not
conform to the neighborhood in any way.
Now, a new builder seeks to take a lot that is zoned for single-family homes and convert it to
high-density housing on a 3/4 acre lot. The builders originally planned to build 3 or 4 single
family homes; however, they appear to have now changed their mind and desire to build high-
density condo/apartment style homes that also exceed height requirements.
Not only does this not conform to the neighborhood but it will increase the density, traffic,
vehicle flow and block the mountain views the Edgemont single-family homes presently enjoy
and would keep under current zoning requirements. This construction would also decrease the
value of all surrounding single-family properties in the area at a time when the neighborhood
is being improved exponentially and becoming a sought after area to reside.
Page 373
The builders were aware of the zoning requirements at purchase. They were also operating
under an entirely different building plan involving single-family residences. This property is
also zoned differently then the adjacent property were the detached condos were permitted to
be built. However, the committee did limit the number of units and the height due to the exact
concerns expressed now. Neither Edgemont Ave nor Rancho Ventura can withstand any
additional multi-family housing.
We oppose any and all changes to the zoning. We oppose items 5 and 6 both of which
negatively impact Rancho Ventura and impact home values as well as the safety, wellbeing
and quality of life of the home owners in this neighborhood.
Sincerely,
David and Lindsay Teel

Hello,
I've learned about the possible zoning of the vacant lot on Mc Dowell to a used car lot. If
passed this would further change McDowell Road into a used car environment like Van Buren
Street. I'm not excited about this. It will not bring value to the area and the surrounding
neighborhoods.
I am strongly opposed to the high density multi family residence units at 4220 East Edgemont
avenue. This area should stay as a single family residence zoning only. We have some multi
family units next door and am opposed to having more. I'm a neighbor at 4114 East Edgemont
Avenue. This is a single family neighborhood. I am worried about the amount of traffic that
these units would incur. Already we get people speeding down our street to get to the units on
the other side of 42nd Street.
Thank you for your consideration.

Dear Reader.
Please note my opposition to the above proposed zoning change, item 13 on the agenda for
March 2. Adding more dense housing in this area changes the character of the neighborhood
and will ultimately lead to reduction in property values. There is no good reason for making
this change from R1-6 to multifamily. Values of single-family homes in this area will be
negatively impacted by this change. Thank you.

Planning Commission Members,
I hope that you will all read and consider my comments.
The current owners of the land on EDGEMONT AVE (located East of 42nd St & Edgemont) purchased the
property as a single family R1-6 zoned property. The previous owners, The Ladlow Family, disclosed to the new
owners that the neighborhood was UNANIMOUS in opposition for any development that would allow for higher
density. The proposed 8 townhouse units replacing a single family house is a DRASTIC alteration of the
neighborhood. The developer could easily build a couple nice homes in its current zoning and still maintain a quality
neighborhood, as they advertise their intentions as Emory Lane Homes.
I would hope that as community servants the Planning Commission would consider the impact to the surrounding
neighbors on this once quiet dead end street. Please do not let the greed of a developer override the long term
quality of a neighborhood.
I am certain if this was a case in your neighborhood you would not support it
Thank you
