RESOLUTION NO. R20-136 A RESOLUTION OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GLENDALE, MARICOPA COUNTY, ARIZONA, AMENDING THE GENERAL PLAN MAP OF THE CITY OF GLENDALE, ARIZONA, BY APPROVING MAJOR GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT MGPA20-01 FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 5450 WEST NORTHERN AVENUE. Presented by: Lisa Collins, Interim Development Services Director City Council Meeting Minutes - October 13, 2020 Page 8 of 18 Ms. Rabin read the resolution by title. Ms. Collins said her presentation would cover item 36, the Major General Plan Amendment and item 37, the rezoning request for Trevino at Glen Lakes. The property was located at 5450 West Northern Avenue and was approximately 42.8 acres in size. Ms. Collins said the Major General Plan Amendment was a change from POS (Parks and Open Space) to MDR 5 (Medium Density Residential). The rezoning request was from A-1 (Agricultural) to R1-6 PRD (Planned Residential Development). Ms. Collins said the proposal provided: • residential and open space land uses and was consistent with surrounding uses • a new neighborhood that could encourage other investment in the area • housing type and site plan that promoted interaction between new and existing neighborhoods • infill development to enhance existing neighborhoods • new development to revitalize a property that was costly to the City • continuous walking path and public park • adequate school facilities • environmental sustainability Ms. Collins said the proposal was consistent with the development objectives of the General Plan and was compatible with other existing and planned development in the area. The proposal met or exceeded the City's subdivision design expectations and would result in a quality living environment. Ms. Collins said project amenities included pedestrian trails, bike paths, landscaped areas, entry features, decorative theme walls, parks, playgrounds and other commonly -owned open space. The type and quality of house products would be consistent with the intended character of the development. Councilmember Turner asked if the 35.8 acres for Northern Horizons Park included the large, unusable water retention area. Ms. Collins said it was the whole area. Councilmember Turner had researched how much had been spent on the Glen Lakes Golf Course and found that millions had not been spent on the property as some had previously stated. Councilmember Turner said the slide depicting the public park area had several areas designated as lawn and play area. He asked if that also doubled as water retention areas for the subdivision. Ms. Collins said that was correct. All parks had some retention areas. Councilmember Turner asked if it would be maintained by the homeowner's association or the City. Ms. Collins said the developer was responsible for construction and the City would maintain the park. Councilmember Turner did not recall any recent developments where the City was responsible City Council Meeting Minutes - October 13, 2020 Page 9 of 18 for maintaining retention areas. Councilmember Turner asked if there was a rezoning form that applicants were required to complete that indicated the relationship to the property. Residents were unable to get copies of the form. Ms. Collins said the City required the owner of the property to submit the application. The City owned the golf course property. It was processed at the request of Council and that was considered the application. Councilmember Turner said the Zoning Code required that a rezoning request for R1-6 designation meet one or more specific findings. He did not see the findings in the presentation and did not believe it met any of the findings to be eligible for R1-6 zoning. Ms. Collins said the PRD booklet included all of the findings. The project did meet all of the PRD findings and requirements. Councilmember Turner asked if the Planning Commission agreed with the findings. Ms. Collins did not know if they made specific findings but did make a recommendation. Councilmember Turner said the Planning Commission recommended denial but did not make the findings. The Code required both the Planning Commission and the Council to make the findings. Councilmember Clark said the City purchased the golf course in 1979 for $1,419,113. Since then, Golf Maintenance Solutions had been paid $120,500 in 2018, $394,537 in 2019 and $166,691 in 2020. The City had spent $261,634 in maintenance since the course closed. The total spent since 2018 was $943,569. The City had spent a minimum of $2.5 million. Staff was unable to provide maintenance costs for Glen Lakes on an annual basis. She estimated another $1 million had been spent on maintenance over the forty years of ownership. Councilmember Clark said Glen Lakes was not a course that had been ignored for forty years. The heyday of attendance for the course was in 2005 when 47,469 rounds of golf were played. In 2018, it had dropped by 75% to 12,240 rounds of golf played. These were important facts to consider during deliberation on the items. Mayor Weiers opened the public hearing. Stella Greazzo, Ocotillo District, spoke in opposition. Jane Bachmann, Barrel District, spoke in opposition. Craig Griffith, Barrel District, spoke in opposition. Frederick Beyer, Barrel District, spoke in opposition. Fred Beyer ll, Barrel District, spoke in opposition. Phil Erickson, Barrel District, spoke in opposition. Mayor Weiers closed the public hearing. City Council Meeting Minutes - October 13, 2020 Page 10 of 18 A motion was made by Councilmember Jamie Aldama, seconded by Councilmember Ian Hugh to adopt Resolution No. R20-136. Councilmember Tolmachoff said there needed to be lighting in the park for safety reasons. She asked if an effort would be made to save some of the mature trees. Councilmember Tolmachoff said the issue had been debated for over two years. She took no pleasure in casting her vote but it did not make financial sense to have two 9 -hole municipal courses. There was no other option but to move forward. The project was supported by the Glendale Chamber of Commerce. Councilmember Turner said the demise of the course was due to municipal neglect. The deteriorating condition was responsible for the decline in play. The number of proposed lots had been increased from less than 100 to 170. The City could afford to restore the property as a golf course or a park. The estimate to restore it as a park was less than $4 million. It was a shame. He appreciated the residents who had fought to keep it as open space. Vice Mayor Malnar said it was not feasible to keep the course open. Residents tonight had commented on improvements that were needed at other City parks. Council had a responsibility to upgrade the parks systems. He had concluded that the City needed to upgrade what it had and turning the entire property into a park was not a wise decision. There had been concerns expressed about traffic and congestion. Turning it into a mega -park would create traffic and congestion all days of the week. Mayor Weiers said the current Council had been strapped with debt. It was incumbent on the Council to maintain what the City had and move forward. The vote on the motion was: AYE: Mayor Jerry Weiers Vice Mayor Ray Malnar Councilmember Jamie Aldama Councilmember Joyce Clark Councilmember Ian Hugh Councilmember Lauren Tolmachoff NAY: Councilmember Bart Turner Passed 37.

Councilmember Turner did not believe the application met the criteria of the Zoning Code.

RESOLUTION NO. R20-121 A RESOLUTION OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GLENDALE, MARICOPA COUNTY, ARIZONA, AMENDING THE GENERAL PLAN MAP OF THE CITY OF GLENDALE, BY APPROVING GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT GPA20-08 FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 8707 WEST NORTHERN AVENUE IN GLENDALE. ORDINANCE NO. 020-67 AN ORDINANCE OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GLENDALE, MARICOPA COUNTY, ARIZONA, REZONING PROPERTY LOCATED AT 8707 WEST NORTHERN AVENUE FROM R1-10 PRD (SINGLE FAMILY — 1 UNIT PER 10,000 SQUARE FEET / PLANNED RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT) TO R1-6 PRD (SINGLE FAMILY — 1 UNIT PER 6,000 SQUARE FEET / PLANNED RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT) FOR A DEVELOPMENT PLAN ENTITLED "PALERMO," AMENDING THE ZONING MAP; PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE; AND DIRECTING THE CITY CLERK TO RECORD A CERTIFIED COPY OF THE ORDINANCE. Presented by: Lisa Collins, Interim Development Services Director Ms. Rabin read the resolution and ordinance by title. Ms. Collins said the request was for Council to conduct a public hearing and adopt a resolution to approve a General Plan Map Amendment from LDR 2.5 (Low Density Residential 1-2.5 du/ac) to MDR -5.0 (Medium Density Residential 3.5 -5.0 du/acre) and an ordinance to rezone from R1-10 PRD (Single Family — Planned Residential Development) to R1-6 PRD (Single City Council Meeting Minutes - October 13, 2020 Page 12 of 18 Residence, Planned Residential Development) for a project titled "Palermo" for a 12 -acre property located at the southeast corner of Northern Avenue and 87th Avenue. Ms. Collins said the proposal would provide infill development, pedestrian and bicycle connectivity and was consistent with the policies and objectives of the General Plan. Staff recommended approval subject to: substantial conformance to the project narrative and PRD Booklet; placement of an 8 -foot tall decorative masonry wall along Northern Avenue; and providing proximity to airport information to home buyers. The applicant had also agreed to the following stipulations: • East half of 87th Avenue shall be a private roadway • West half of 87th Avenue shall remain public right-of-way • Developer and subsequent homeowners' association shall maintain both public right-of-way and private roadway • Subdivision shall be gated • Row of trees shall be planted approximately 20 feet on center along the south property line north of the SRP easement as approved by the Planning Department • Lots south of Frier Drive shall have a minimum lot area of 6,500 square feet • Minimum of five benches with adjacent shade -type tree shall be provided within the open space areas as approved by the Planning Department Mayor Weiers opened the public hearing.

It would be an excellent addition to the area. A motion was made by Councilmember Joyce Clark, seconded by Councilmember Ian Hugh to adopt Resolution R20-121.

Council would need to reconsider the item to add the stipulations. A motion was made by Councilmember Joyce Clark, seconded by Vice Mayor Ray Malnar to reconsider item 38, Resolution No. R20-121 and Ordinance No. 020-67.

ORDINANCE NO. 020-73 AN ORDINANCE OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GLENDALE, MARICOPA COUNTY, ARIZONA, AUTHORIZING CASH AND APPROPRIATION BALANCE TRANSFERS BETWEEN BUDGET ITEMS IN THE ADOPTED FISCAL YEAR 2019-2020 BUDGET. Presented by: Lisette Camacho, Director, Budget and Finance Ms. Rabin read the ordinance by title. Ms. Camacho was requesting approval of certain Fiscal Year 2019-2020 (FY2019-20) budget amendments. Total budget appropriation across all funds remained unchanged with the action. Lines 1-53 of Exhibit A included a transfer of cash of unspent balance of Development Impact Fees (DIF) collected before January 1, 2012. Arizona Revised Statutes 9-463.05 required the unspent balance to be distributed equally among the remaining categories of DIF. Councilmember Clark asked why City departments could not figure out how to spend DIF from 2012 over the past eight years but waited until the fees had to be distributed evenly over all remaining categories. Ms. Camacho said there had been a push to spend remaining DIF balances. There were criteria for spending the funds and some expenditures did not qualify. Councilmember Turner asked if the funds should have already been transferred. Ms. Camacho said because FY2020 had not yet been completed, the transfers were being done after the fourth quarter of the fiscal year. Councilmember Turner said there was $266,000 in unspent DIF funds for open space and staff had never asked Council for ideas on how to spend the funds. Ms. Camacho said the unspent funds were not being lost but were being transferred to the remaining DIF categories. Councilmember Turner said the money could have been spent anywhere in the City but was now being split up into parcels of $38,000 that were not citywide. He asked if there was an option not to transfer the funds. City Council Meeting Minutes - October 13, 2020 Page 15 of 18 Ms. Camacho said the City was required by statute to transfer the funds. A motion was made by Vice Mayor Ray Malnar, seconded by Councilmember Ian Hugh to adopt Ordinance No. 020-73. Councilmember Clark would support the motion only because of the time constraints. She was surprised the matter had not been brought to Council earlier in the year. The money was collected in 2012 when Zone West was farmland. Zone West would now benefit from funds that were supposed to go to 2012 parks and recreation projects. The City had failed to do an adequate job in handling the DIF funds. Councilmember Tolmachoff asked what the deadline was for transferring the funds. Ms. Camacho said the transfer had to be made prior to the DIF audit. She did not know what would happen if the funds were not transferred prior to the audit. Mr. Bailey said it was a result of the new DIF statute that provided there was a limited time to spend the DIF funds. If the fees had not been spent, the fees had to be equitably rolled over to the new funds. It had to be used for growth -related projects. He was unsure what the process would be if the funds were not transferred but reimbursement might be required. Funds had been spent and the amounts being transferred were what was left over. Councilmember Clark had been searching for funding for Heroes Park and some of the funds could have been used for that project. Mr. Phelps said more detailed information would be provided to Council. It was not uncommon to pool the DIF funds and apply it to a specific project. Councilmember Turner felt the explanation was unacceptable. Mayor Weiers said it would have been nice to have spent the funds in a more timely manner but the funds were not being lost. Councilmember Tolmachoff requested a future discussion regarding how DIF funds were spent. The vote on the motion was: AYE: Mayor Jerry Weiers Vice Mayor Ray Malnar Councilmember Jamie Aldama Councilmember Joyce Clark Councilmember Ian Hugh Councilmember Lauren Tolmachoff NAY: Councilmember Bart Turner Passed RESOLUTIONS City Council Meeting Minutes - October 13, 2020 Page 16 of 18 40. RESOLUTION NO. R20-137 A RESOLUTION OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GLENDALE, MARICOPA COUNTY, ARIZONA, AMENDING THE DEBT MANAGEMENT POLICY FOR THE CITY OF GLENDALE. Presented by: Lisette Camacho, Director, Budget and Finance Ms. Rabin read the resolution by title. Ms. Camacho said the proposed resolution would adopt the changes to the City's Debt Management Policy on General Obligation bonds that were discussed at the workshop. A motion was made by Councilmember Lauren Tolmachoff, seconded by Councilmember Jamie Aldama to adopt Resolution No. R20-137. Councilmember Turner said by adopting the changes, it was Council's commitment to keep the property tax rate level and sell new bonds only at the rate at which old bonds were being paid off. The vote on the motion was: AYE: Mayor Jerry Weiers Vice Mayor Ray Malnar Councilmember Jamie Aldama Councilmember Joyce Clark Councilmember Ian Hugh Councilmember Lauren Tolmachoff Councilmember Bart Turner Passed REQUEST FOR FUTURE WORKSHOP AND EXECUTIVE SESSION A motion was made by Vice Mayor Ray Malnar, seconded by Councilmember Joyce Clark to hold the next regularly scheduled City Council workshop on Tuesday, October 27, 2020 at 12:30 p.m. in the Civic Center, 5750 West Glenn Drive, to be followed by an executive session pursuant to A.R.S. 38-431.03. AYE: Mayor Jerry Weiers Vice Mayor Ray Malnar Councilmember Jamie Aldama Councilmember Joyce Clark Councilmember Ian Hugh Councilmember Lauren Tolmachoff Councilmember Bart Turner Passed City Council Meeting Minutes - October 13, 2020 Page 17 of 18 COUNCIL COMMENTS AND SUGGESTIONS Councilmember Aldama said Ocotillo residents could request yard signs to remind drivers to slow down. Councilmember Aldama said residents who were interested in serving on City boards and commissions could find information on the City's website or contact the City Clerk's office. Councilmember Clark said Councilmembers took no pleasure in rezoning Glen Lakes Golf Course, but it was something that needed to be done. Residents had remarked on the view of the trees and water. It was not the responsibility of every City taxpayer to maintain residents' views. Councilmember Clark reminded residents that Glendale's question 1 on the November ballot would allocate $31,819,400 expressly for infrastructure improvements in all City parks. The City was developing the bond capacity to maintain and improve existing parks. She encouraged people to vote yes on question 1. Councilmember Clark had emailed staff on item 29, striking the concept of "no property tax being leveled by revitalization districts." She did not understand the response received and would be following up on it. CITIZEN COMMENTS James Deibler, Phoenix resident, spoke about issues regarding COVID-19.
