CITIZEN COMMENTS
Dr. Sylvia Herrera, from the Barrio Defense Committee, updated Council on the case she spoke about at
the previous meeting that occurred last December. She said there had not been much movement. A
video was provided by the Police Department but had nothing on it. Dr. Herrera was concerned that no
progress was made and that there had been no written communication regarding the complaint the
family had filed. The family had been affected negatively by the case.
Antonia Gomez, Ocotillo District, also spoke about the incident that occurred in December, involving her
daughter and son. She wanted Council to help correct her daughter's record. The video she had
received from the Police Department did not contain anything. She was told a correct copy would be

PUBLIC HEARING -LAND DEVELOPMENT ACTIONS
20. ANNEXATION APPLICATION AN 202: WOOLF LOGISTICS 8805 NORTH REEMS ROAD
Removed from the Agenda on 10/5/17
21. ANNEXATION APPLICATION AN-202: WOOLF LOGISTICS—8805 NORTH REEMS ROAD
(PUBLIC HEARING REQUIRED)
Presented By: Jon M. Froke, AICP, Planning Director
Ms. Bower read the item by title.
Mr. Froke said the item was a request for City Council to conduct a public hearing on the blank
annexation petition for property that was approximately 1,340 acres in size and was generally
located north of Northern Avenue, east of Reems Road, south of Peoria Avenue, and west of
143rd Avenue.
Mr. Froke said various members of the Woolf family had been working with City staff for years to
bring the project forward. The annexation process was a 2-step process and tonight's action
was the first step. A public hearing was necessary on the blank annexation petition but no
action was required by Council. The next step would be bringing an ordinance before the City
Council for consideration. If the ordinance was approved, staff would bring forward a rezoning
request for Council consideration.
Mr. Froke said a neighborhood meeting was held on October 4th, to introduce Woolf Logistics to
the neighborhood. Those in attendance at the meeting were supportive of Woolf Logistics. He
said the property shared a boundary with Luke Air Force Base and future industrial and business
complex development would be compatible with the Base.
Mr. Froke said the General Plan encouraged growth management. Future development would
implement the General Plan and Northern Parkway would provide excellent transportation
options. A future workshop would be held to discuss the area in further detail.
Mayor Weiers opened the public hearing.
James Deibler, Phoenix resident, supported the annexation.
Mayor Weiers closed the public hearing.
Mayor Weiers said his main concern had been the compatibility with Luke Air Force Base and
that had been addressed.

Councilmember Clark welcomed Woolf Logistics to Glendale. She said the project had been
ongoing for 15 years. The City had asked the development to find private water and sewer and
tote compatible with Luke and it had done that. She looked forward to it becoming income and
job producing property.

NEW BUSINESS
23. AUTHORIZATION TO ENTER INTO THE SUPPLEMENT TO STADIUM PARKING
SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT WITH THE ARIZONA SPORTS AND TOURISM AUTHORITY,
THE ARIZONA CARDINALS FOOTBALL CLUB LLC, THE NEW CARDINALS STADIUM LLC,
AND THE STADIUM DEVELOPMENT LLC
Presented By: Michael D. Bailey, City Attorney
Ms. Bower read item 23 by title.
Mr. Bailey asked that Ms. Bower also read the next item, item 24, by title also. He would give a
brief presentation on both items but separate actions would be needed on each item.
Ms. Bower read item 24 by title.
Mr. Bailey was pleased to be presenting both a settlement agreement and a supplement to the
Stadium Parking Agreement. With regard to item 24, the City had the opportunity to sit down
City Council Meeting Minutes-October 10,2017 Page 7 of 11
with representatives of The New Westgate and reach a settlement agreement that resolved
some of the differences regarding the operations and development at Westgate.
Mr. Bailey said the agreement clarified the parties obligations to one another that were originally
set forth in the mixed use development agreement. Over time, various amendments and
exceptions to the original agreement were made and those needed to be clarified. The new
agreement reinforced the economic development in the area and promoted future growth.
Mr. Bailey said the agreement also recognized the relationship with the Arizona Sports and
Tourism Authority(AZSTA) and the Arizona Cardinals,which led to item 23, the supplement to
the Stadium Parking Settlement Agreement. The Cardinals and AZSTA had an interest and
would need to consent to any changes to the parking at Westgate.
Mr. Bailey said there were four small non-substantive changes to the settlement agreement that
would need to be included in the motion for item 24. The changes were:
• Paragraph 4.2(a)added the wording "except hotel garage spaces"after"arena spaces"
• Paragraph 11 amended "AEG Worldwide"to"AEG Inc." at the request of AEG
• Developer agreement shall be governed by a reasonable commercial standard
•Stadium event definition, added "under the Cardinal's Parking Settlement Agreement"
Councilmember Clark asked if the hotel garage spaces were included in the original count of
authorized, recognized spaces.
Mr. Bailey said the spaces were recognized as part of that count when utilized for the arena
spaces. However, when they were not utilized for the arena spaces they were not counted
because of the agreement with John Q. Hammons.
Councilmember Clark asked for a definition of a reasonable commercial standard and asked
why it was inserted at the last minute.
Mr. Bailey said, when recognizing an event in the arena parking lot and the impact it might have
on The New Westgate, the City would sit down with them and discuss the event. The New
Westgate would have to operate at a commercially reasonable standard and couldn't just say
no. It would be looked at from a revenue standpoint.
Councilmember Clark said then it was based on whether it was profitable or not.
Mr. Bailey said that was correct.
Councilmember Tolmachoff asked if AEG had been provided with the new language and was in
agreement with it.
Mr. Bailey said staff had spoken with AEG and AEG was okay with the added language.
Councilmember Turner asked if AZSTA, the Cardinals and (Star were also okay with the
changes.
Mr. Bailey said that was correct.
A motion was made by Councilmember Lauren Tolmachoff, seconded by Councilmember
Jamie Aldama that the City enter into the supplement to the Stadium Parking Settlement
Agreement with the Arizona Sports And Tourism Authority, the Arizona Cardinals Football
Club LLC, the New Cardinals Stadium LILC And the Stadium Development LLC.
