routes if a fire occurred in their homes and reminded everyone of the importance of fire safety.
Mr. Phelps recognized Glendale Police Sergeant Jeff Turney for his extraordinarily generous act
of driving an elderly Glendale resident to the resident's new retirement facility in Florida. The

21. AUTHORIZATION TO ENTER INTO A LINKING AGREEMENT WITH WEST COAST
ARBORIST, INC FOR TREE PRUNING, REMOVAL AND OTHER RELATED SERVICES SUCH
AS TREE ASSESSMENT AND GPS INVENTORY IDENTIFICATION FOR THE CITY OF
GLENDALE PARKS AND TRAIL SYSTEM
Presented by: Diane Williams, Public Facilities, Recreation and Special Events Deputy Director
Ms. Williams said the proposed linking agreement with West Coast Arborist (WCA) was for an
initial term of two years for assessment, pruning and/or removal, and GPS inventory
identification of trees located in Glendale parks, retention basins, and trails in an amount not to
exceed $793,000 for the entire term of the agreement. The request included authorization for
the City Manager, at his discretion, to renew the agreement for three additional years on an
annual basis.
Ms. Williams said the parks and trail system contained over 14,000 trees of various varieties.
The system was in need of an updated tree inventory and a full tree assessment. A baseline
would be created for a sound maintenance plan and would help the City properly maintain and,
in some cases, remove unsafe and diseased trees for the health of others.
Ms. Williams said trees throughout the Glendale park system needed a professional assessment
to assist the park staff and or contractor(s) to safely prune and trim. In some cases, due to
overall height and age of the trees, service required specialized equipment and skill beyond staff
internal resources. If approved, WCA would provide a GPS inventory and perform necessary
pruning or removal.
Councilmember Tolmachoff said at its meeting on August 13th, Council approved a contract with
Green Play LLC for a park master plan for $200,000. Council also approved a contract for
$210,000 for an onsite assessment of park landscape, irrigation, inventory analysis, and
hydraulic analysis that applied to only 9 parks. She asked what was different about the
proposed contract and did the contract include more than 9 parks.
Ms. Williams said the contracts approved in August were geared toward master plans. The
proposed contract was geared toward tree trimming, a full assessment, inventory and applying a
GPS tracking system. There would also be an electronic file that contained the data for all of the
trees.
Skip Varney, Parks Superintendent, said it included all of the parks as well as basins and other
resources.
City Council Meeting Minutes - September 24, 2019 Page 6 of 14
Councilmember Tolmachoff asked if it was for 5 years and was tree trimming included.
Mr. Varney said it was a 5-year contract and tree trimming was included.
Councilmember Tolmachoff verified that the City had no inventory or idea of what trees were in
City parks.
Mr. Varney said the only assessment he was aware of was done at Sahuaro Ranch Park.
Vice Mayor Clark asked if the contract included replacement of trees that were removed or if that
would require a separate contract.
Mr. Varney said the proposed contract included the planting of trees.
Councilmember Tolmachoff clarified that the City would be required to purchase the replacement
trees.
Mr. Varney said that was correct.
A motion was made by Councilmember Jamie Aldama, seconded by Vice Mayor Joyce
Clark to approve item 21.

PUBLIC HEARING - LAND DEVELOPMENT ACTIONS
24. ORDINANCE NO. 019-80
AN ORDINANCE OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GLENDALE, MARICOPA COUNTY,
ARIZONA, REZONING PROPERTY LOCATED AT THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF WEST
BELL ROAD AND NORTH 53RD AVENUE (5315 WEST BELL ROAD) FROM B-P (BUSINESS
PARK) ZONING TO PAD (PLANNED AREA DEVELOPMENT) FOR A DEVELOPMENT PLAN
ENTITLED "SWC BELL ROAD & 53RD AVENUE PAD," AMENDING THE ZONING MAP;
PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE; AND ORDERING THAT A CERTIFIED COPY OF
THE ORDINANCE IS RECORDED.
Presented by: Eric Fitzer, Development Services Department Director
Ms. Bower read the ordinance by title.
Mr. Fitzer said the proposed ordinance would approve a rezoning application for a project titled
"SWC Bell Road and 53rd Avenue PAD", located at the southwest corner of Bell Road and 53rd
Avenue in the Sahuaro District. The subject property was currently designated as BP (Business
Park) by the General Plan. Areas to the west and south were zoned BP (Business Park). Areas
to the east were zoned M-1 (Light Industrial). Areas to the north across Bell Road were zoned
CSC (Commercial Shopping Center).
Mr. Fitzer said the applicant was requesting approval of a Planned Area Development proposal
City Council Meeting Minutes - September 24, 2019 Page 8 of 14
in order to establish a more feasible variety of land use options for the 8-acre site. The intent
was to encourage an infill project by enabling a mixture of retail and convenience services
(including drive thrus), multi-family residential, and storage uses. Vehicle service uses would
also be permitted together with the placement of service bay doors facing 53rd Avenue.
Mr. Fitzer said the proposal included an eight foot (8') tall wall to be located street side along
53rd Avenue, as part of the screening treatment for the bay doors. The wall would be placed 20
feet from the curb. The area in between would be landscaped, and the existing olive trees would
be preserved to the extent possible.
Mr. Fitzer said two access points would be developed along Bell Road (including a median break
to enable left-in traffic movements from westbound Bell Road as part of the westernmost entry)
as well as an access along 53rd Avenue, opposite an existing driveway. Completion of off-site
improvements would be required prior to issuance of any Certificate of Occupancy for sites
located on the same frontage.
Mr. Fitzer said the proposal was consistent with the General Plan. The uses and buffering were
compatible with other existing or planned development. It posed infill opportunity where
infrastructure was already available. At its September 5, 2019 meeting, the Planning
Commission unanimously recommended approval of the request subject to 8 stipulations
outlined in the proposed ordinance.
Mayor Weiers opened the public hearing.
Bryan Younger, Developmental Enrichment Center, 16809 N. 53rd Avenue, a tenant on the east
side of the street from the proposed development, spoke in opposition. The center was
concerned that the development would drastically increase the amount of traffic in the area and
would make it difficult for the center to protect its clients, special needs adults and children, from
getting hit by cars.
Vice Mayor Clark asked if any of the clients walked to the facility and if there was an outdoor
recreation area for the clients.
Mr. Younger said all clients arrived by vehicle and there was no outdoor recreation area.
Vice Mayor Clark confirmed that clients were served inside the building.
Mr. Younger said that was correct. Clients were taken on walks to area restaurants and
speeding traffic was a concern.
Vice Mayor Clark said the traffic situation could not be attributed to the development across the
street.
Councilmember Tolmachoff asked if clients were allowed outside the building unescorted.
Mr. Younger said clients were not allowed outside without an escort.
Ed Bull, Burch & Cracchiolo, on behalf of the applicant, said the applicant had addressed the
concerns of the subject property's neighbors by moving uses. The proposed use immediately
across the street from Mr. Younger's business was an indoor storage facility. There would be
low traffic and no noise. He said the applicant had accepted the 8 stipulations and asked Council
to approve the recommendation.
Mayor Weiers closed the public hearing.
City Council Meeting Minutes - September 24, 2019 Page 9 of 14
A motion was made by Councilmember Ray Malnar, seconded by Councilmember Jamie
Aldama to adopt Ordinance No. 019-80.
Mayor Weiers supported the project. Bell Road was one of the busiest streets in the City and
the additional traffic would not be an issue for Mr. Younger's facility. He was comfortable
that the applicant would address any concerns.
The vote on the motion was:

Mr. Fitzer said the proposed resolution authorized the City Manager to enter into a
Pre-Annexation Development Agreement (PADA) between the City and Northern Investors
Limited Partnership (NILP) in order to facilitate the annexation of the owner's property and the
development of the property within the City.
Councilmember Tolmachoff asked what the current zoning was on the property.
Mr. Fitzer believed it was County RU-43.
Councilmember Tolmachoff said when the property was annexed, it would have to be zoned
residential.
Mr. Fitzer said that was correct. It would be annexed with an equivalent City zoning and then
would be rezoned by the property owner.
Councilmember Tolmachoff asked if staff knew what the intended use was for the property.
Mr. Fitzer said it would more than likely be an industrial use.
