The Phoenix City Council approved a rezoning amendment for 2601 and 2615 E. Rose Garden Lane, modifying conditions attached to a previous rezoning approval. The amendment allows for the modification of Stipulation 4 regarding a minimum landscape strip, the deletion of Stipulation 11 related to required green infrastructure techniques, and the deletion of Stipulation 14 concerning overhead utilities in the public right-of-way. The request was initially reviewed by the Planning Hearing Officer, who recommended approval with modifications. The Planning Commission concurred with the recommendation, ultimately leading to formal adoption by the City Council. The Paradise Valley Village Planning Committee also reviewed the request and provided recommendations on individual stipulations.
This rezoning amendment allows for increased flexibility in site development by modifying previously imposed landscaping and infrastructure requirements. The decision reflects evolving urban planning priorities and may influence future industrial land use policies in the area.
