site. It proposed a maximum building height of 220 feet; two freeway monument signs with a

uses as the existing PAD. The Citizen Participation Process was completed, and no opposition

A RESOLUTION OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GLENDALE, MARICOPA COUNTY,
ARIZONA, AUTHORIZING AND DIRECTING THE ENTERING INTO OF A DEVELOPMENT
AGREEMENT WITH BALL METAL BEVERAGE CONTAINER CORP.
Presented by: Randy Huggins, Economic Development Officer
Ms. Bower read the ordinance by title.
Mr. Huggins said the proposed resolution authorized the City Manager to enter into a
development agreement regarding certain City fees between the City and Ball Metal Beverage
Container Corp (Ball Corp).
Mr. Huggins said Ball Corp was developing a $290 million, 530,000 square foot state-of-the-art
metal beverage container manufacturing facility, designed specifically to provide containers for
City Council Meeting Minutes - February 25, 2020 Page 12 of 14
the Red Bull production facility currently under construction directly west of the new Ball Corp
location. The facility would create more than 190 new positions with an average wage of
$65,000 per year. Over 10 years, it represented more than $125 million dollars in wages being
added to the local economy. Ball Corp would own the building and was in a long-term lease
with the property ownership group.
Mr. Huggins said there was no direct expense to the City. The development agreement would
result in the City foregoing $750,000 of development fees which included the waiving of City
fees related to the initial design and construction of, or the issuance of a certificate of occupancy
for, Ball Corp's project, including any plan review, permit, or inspection fees. The fee waiver did
not include development impact fees. As part of the agreement, transportation impact fees
would be credited against transportation improvements constructed and dedicated by the
development project ownership. Ball Corp would pay all other development impact fees related
to the project. The total direct revenues to the City were expected to reach approximately $4.5
million over the first ten years.

COUNCIL COMMENTS AND SUGGESTIONS
Councilmember Clark said Woolf Logistics had approached City Council in approximately 2005 with a
plan to turn the property into an industrial park. The City had indicated that it would not provide water,
sewer or infrastructure to the property. Mr. Woolf negotiated the necessary contracts and the
development occurring now was paying for the necessary infrastructure. If Mr. Woolf had not persevered,
the City would not be seeing the development that was now occurring along the Loop 303. It was due to
his tenaciousness and perseverance. She congratulated and thanked Mr. Woolf.
Councilmember Hugh said it was another big night for Glendale.
Councilmember Turner invited everyone to attend the Folk and Heritage Festival, Saturday, February
29th and Sunday, March 1 st, 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., at Sahuaro Ranch Park.
