Una Mas Subdivision
APPLICATION SUMMARY & LOCATION
The applicant, Una Mas, LLC, has applied for final plat approval of 21 commercial building lots on 12.62
acres of land for Una Mas Subdivision. The proposed subdivision is zoned C-G (General Retail and
Service Commercial) and is located at 3475 E. Ustick Road in the NW '/ of Section 4, T. 3N., R. 1 E.
The City Council approved the preliminary plat (PP-08-007) for Una Mas Subdivision on November 18,
2008. The applicant also received approval for the two private streets within this subdivision at that time.
The preliminary plat is a re-subdivision of a portion of Government Lot 4.
Note: A provision of the Development Agreement for the 4.92 acre property located along the east
boundary annexed with AZ-OS-060 required all of the property to be included within the boundaries of a
plat. The portion of this area where N. Ally's Avenue has been constructed is not included on the final
plat as it is now right-of-way.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The submitted final plat substantially complies with the approved preliminary plat. Staff recommends
approval of the Una Mas Subdivision Final Plat subject to the conditions noted below. These conditions
shall be considered in full, unless expressly modified or deleted by motion of the Meridian City Council.
SITE SPECIFIC CONDITIONS
Applicant is to meet all terms of the approved development agreements (recorded as instruments
#106137048 & #107026537), and annexation (Una Mas, AZ-OS-061 & ACHD Ustick Road
Property, AZ-05-060), and preliminary plat (PP-08-007) applications for this subdivision.
If the City Engineer's signature has not been obtained on this final plat by November 18, 2010,
the preliminary plat shall become null and void.
Prior to submittal for the City Engineer's signature, have the Certificate of Owners and the
accompanying acknowledgement signed and notarized.
4. Revise the notes on the face of the plat prepared by EHM Engineers Inc., stamped on February
27, 2009 by Gerald Martens, prior to signature of the final plat by the City Engineer, as follows:
a. Note #4: Add Development Agreement Instrument No. 107026537
b. Please define the easements graphically depicted on the face of the plat (i.e. private street,
landscape buffer, etc.).
c. Add note prohibiting access to the site from N. Ally's Avenue except for the three access
points shown on the site plan approved with the preliminary plat.
The subject property shall be subdivided prior to issuance of any building permits.

6. Revise the landscape plan prepared by Jensen Belts Associates, dated January 31, 2007,
submitted with this application, to exclude the internal site improvements/landscaping shown on
the southern portion of the site as it is not required with the subject final plat application.
7. The applicant shall submit applications for design review with each building Certificate of
Zoning Compliance. The elevations and materials shall also be in substantial conformance with
the elevations approved with the preliminary plat.
