PROPOSED ORDINANCE NO.1046/REZONING
CASE FOR MCRAE/KAUFMAN-BROAD PLANNED
DEVELOPMENT AND PROPOSED RESOLUTION NO.
99-05/PRELIMINARY PLAT FOR ARIZONA
GOLDFIELD
)Associate Planner Rudy Esquivias
briefed the council on this item.The ordinance will allow a cluster homes
concept of development and the resolution will approve the preliminary plat
for the cluster home development.This development would have 296 detached
multi -family units in a courtyard setting.The current zoning calls for
single or multi -family homes by planned development and the applicant is
requesting several deviations from planned development standards.The
setbacks would be specific to this planned development.Their narrative
booklet,to be kept on file for reference,commits to a wide variety of home
sizes,styles and roof lines,colors,floor plans and amenities.Homes range
in size from 1,018 sq.ft.to over 2,200 sq.ft.He gave a brief history of the
site.The general plan designates the area for a variety of land uses.The
subject site is designated for high density,allowing 6-18 dwelling units per
acre.The proposal is for about 7.5 dwelling units per acre.This would be a
new type of development for the city as there are no other cluster home
developments.He gave a description of the planned development -hammerhead
neighborhoods of 6-10 units each;a centralized open space;open space in the
southwest corner and at the entrance;curvalinear streets;a large drainage
area along the west side of the property:an 80'wide right-of-way on Cortez,
the east side of the property,to be improved;and a possible landscape
feature along Cortez.He commented it could be seen as a small lot
development or as individual apartment buildings.It will preclude the
monotony of streetscapes.The Planning & Zoning Commission recommended
REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FEBRUARY 2,1999
PAGE 3 OF 16
approval by a vote of 6-1 for both the rezoning and the preliminary plat.The
commissioner voting against the development saw this as another way of doing
small lots and not providing the city with the larger lots they had been
asking for.The developer does incorporate some large homes into this
concept,but the lots are all small.The Planning & Zoning Commission adopted
a number of stipulations for the planned development amendment,most of them
being standard,and also recommended the setbacks remain at 7'from the
property line for swimming pools instead of the 3'requested by the applicant.
He commented Kaufman & Broad had submitted a letter this evening wherein they
had agreed to build a neighborhood swimming pool,25'by 50',including a pool
house,enclosed bathrooms and a meeting area.The letter also mentioned other
amenities that would be added.He had provided an additional stipulation to
the council with the letter which would incorporate the construction of the
pool and pool house into the ordinance.
Mayor Coleman asked if the pool was
a first for Kaufman & Broad.
Associate Planner Rudy Esquivias
stated that is what he had been told.He believed this would be the first
development built pool in the city in a long time;the last one he recalled
was the pool put in at Apache Villa.
Vice Mayor Surra asked if the new
amenities would be provided in an area that had been designated as open space.
Associate Planner Rudy Esquivias
stated that was correct.Sean Lake would show them on the plans where it
would be constructed.
Councilmember Insalaco commented he
had understood that there were supposed to be open spaces outside of the
retention area.This appears to be a cluster of cluster homes.Supposedly
the fire district had been talked to about this to make sure they could get a
fire engine in there,and areas had been rounded off to allow for the engines.
However,when he talked to the fire marshal,he was told that this was the
bare minimum that they would accept and they are not happy with it.They
cannot get two fire trucks in on that street if there were a fire.The
cluster homes in Scottsdale are okay because they are required to be
sprinklered,but the developer is not willing to do that out here.He has a
problem with this many homes so close together.The five foot sideyards are
too close together for him.He does not feel that i t is safe.
Councilmember Dietz asked'whatAhe
current zoning is.
Associate Planner Rudy Esquivias
stated the current zoning is CR-S/PD,defined as conventional single or multi-
family homes by planned development.
REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FEBRUARY 2,1999
PAGE 4 OF 16
Councilmember Eck asked if they
could put apartment complexes on this site.
Associate Planner Rudy Esquivias
stated they could,but the planned development would be subject to council
approval.
Mayor Coleman commented it appeared
to be similar to town homes only they are basically detached.
Councilmember Durbala stated they
had a similar design brought up in a planning and zoning retreat,and he
thinks i t looks pretty nice.It will be different and unique to our
community.
Councilmember Eck commented he
thought it would be a cluster of homes in one area that would leave a lot of
open space somewhere else.However,the zoning appears to make this a good
location for this.
Associate Planner Rudy Esquivias
stated they have two sizable open space areas along with the drainage ditch.
Both are labeled as retention and recreation.Part of it is basically
retention,but when they do not have water in them they are recreational.
Some lots were removed to add additional amenities.In addition,they will
have landscaped street frontages,but they are less usable open spaces.
Councilmember Urich commented
numerous people want more home but less yard,and with the porches on the
front,i t is likely there will be more interaction with each other.She
believes this is something that is lacking in today's society.
Vice Mayor Surra added she was glad
to hear that the center retention area was not 25'by 50'and would not turn
into the pool.
Mayor Coleman requested the
applicant address the council.
Mr.Sean Lake,10 W.Main Street,
Mesa,addressed the council.He commented they have always presented this
development as a courtyard,not a cluster.In a courtyard,one takes a cul-
de-sac type neighborhood and turns i t inward with a private street.I t
creates an ideal little community with very little traffic.The majority of
traffic will be on the circular road.This will allow neighbors to interact
and the neighborhood to be safer.I t is a hybrid town home:a town home that
is detached.They tried to take the best of both worlds in regards to town
homes and single family homes.Regarding the pool,it will be located in the
central area where the basketball court and tennis court were previously
REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FEBRUARY 2,1999
PAGE 5 OF 16
located.A sport court will be put next to the pool house.A tot lot will be
added south of that.Other tot lots and a horse shoe pitch will be located in
different areas.He commented they worked extensively with the fire district
on the project.The district was concerned about the fire issues.A plan was
formulated after taking the worst case scenario;they were able to show that
hose could be extended from the furthest of two fire trucks to the farthest
home that could be on fire.To his knowledge the fire district was okay with
these plans now.
Councilmember Durbala asked if there
is a walkway that goes all the way across between lots 66 and 67 and lots 113
and 114.
Mr.Sean Lake stated that is a
pedestrian connection so that you can reach i t from all different sides of the
development.
Vice Mayor Surra asked why they did
not put in a sprinkler system throughout the development.They had stated
they were going to put in upscale items,and that would be one.She believed
Councilmember Insalaco had raised a good point.
Mr.Sean Lake stated they consider
the sprinkler system to be the buyer's choice.
Vice Mayor Surra asked if it was
offered as part of a package.
Mr.Sean Lake stated it was not
offered to him in his subdivision,but the homeowner decided to do it.In
these subdivisions i t is the buyer's choice,but they have not had a large
demand for it.People have not asked for it and it is almost cost prohibitive
at this point.

Vice Mayor Surra asked if it were a
Mr.Sean Lake stated they would
Vice Mayor Surra commented it would
Mr.Sean Lake stated their surveys
show that people want more square footage in their homes than anything else.
If someone has an extra $5,000 to put into their home,they always want more
square footage,so this is what Kaufman & Broad is trying to provide.
REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FEBRUARY 2,1999
PAGE 6 OF 16
City Attorney Joel Stern commented
that the City of Scottsdale requires all new homes to be sprinklered.
Vice Mayor Surra asked if that is
why it is present in the Scottsdale development.She added they would
probably be adding to the cost of the house if it were required here.
Mr.Sean Lake stated if fire
sprinklers were required in Apache Junction,everybody would be required to
provide them.
Vice Mayor Surra repeated that i t
would raise the cost of the house.
Mr.Sean Lake stated everybody would
have to raise the cost of their house.
Vice Mayor Surra insisted that this
is a cost issue;this allows them to keep the costs within the range of what
they believe they can sell.
Mr.Sean Lake stated i t is not a
cost issue;the buyers just do not want it.They would rather have a larger
home.He asked if Apache Junction were considering an ordinance to require
fire sprinklers.
Mayor Coleman commented he did not
think they were going to do it tonight.
City Manager Curtis Shook asked
where the models would be located and which ones would be shown if this were
passed.
Mr.Sean Lake believed the models
would be located somewhere near the entrance.
Mr.Brad Hare,who was with Mr.
Lake,stated i t had not been determined which models would be shown.
City Manager Curtis Shook commented
the models pretty much dictate what people will buy.He hopes they will show
their top of the line models.
Mr.Brad Hare stated they would.He
mentioned some of their best sellers.
Councilmember Dietz asked if they
would be bringing in a manufactured sales office.
REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FEBRUARY 2,1999

Mr.Brad Hare stated they will be
using a sales model.
Councilmember Dietz asked if it
would be designed to match what they are selling.
Mr.Brad Hare stated they would pick
a color scheme that would match what they are selling.
Councilmember Durbala asked what
kind of outside advertising they would be using.
Mr.Brad Hare stated he did not know
the answer to that question.
Councilmembers Eck and Durbala asked
if they would be needing some off -site directional signage.
City Manager Curtis Shook commented
this is premature as there is no provision for off -site signs.The developer
would have to be guided by the current ordinance.
Councilmember Durbala commented he
thought the council had already set a precedent.
City Manager Curtis Shook_stated he
did not believe the council had set a precedent.
There was general discussion on
whether a precedent had been set.
Vice Mayor Surra:asked about the
plans for phasing.
Mr.Sean Lake stated that had not.

the tentative phasing plan.
Vice Mayor Surra asked under what
phase the pool amenities would be constructed.
Mr.Sean Lake stated the developer
does not want to build the pool before they build on any lots on the property.
With no one living out there,there would be no one there to monitor to pool.
Once a portion of the homes around the pool are built,they will build the
pool.They will be working with staff to develop the phasing.There is one
area they want to develop before they put the pool in.
REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FEBRUARY 2,1999
PAGE 8 OF 16
Councilmember Insalaco agreed that
they would not want to put a pool in that area until it was developed.
Vice Mayor Surra commented she did
not ask about what time they would put the pool in,but what their phasing
plan would be.

hearing on the ordinance and on the resolution.There being no one wishing to
speak,he closed the public hearing and reopened the items to council
