MFD Plan Review Notes Joe Bongiorno The north side of the building needs a turn around. Remove
the emergency access only. It needs to go through. If it is 5
or more stories - it will require a FARS system.

MPD Plan Review Notes Shawn Harper Do these units have climate -controlled hallways (not garden
style) with controlled access entry points? If the multi -family
housing units are climate controlled (not garden style) the
applicant will be required to plan for emergency police
access into each building entry point using a multi -
technology keypad. This will allow police access, if there is
an emergency, into the building if someone isn't able to
come to the door to allow police entrance. Otherwise, police
would have to breach the door to gain access which isn't
ideal for anyone and delays our response.
The Loft & Flats project at 10-mile/Franklin, the Bri at the
Village and additional future multi -family developments are
just a few that use a product police recommend for this
purpose. Police can work with the applicant on placement of
the access. Police will have their own access code (same for
each building) to use in an emergency.
All townhomes and or multi -family units shall be clearly
marked with addresses and unit numbers visible day or night
for emergency response. The applicant shall place a way -
finding map at each entrance.
All qualified open space provided in the development, to
include all amenities, must be in an open area in order to
allow for natural observation opportunities. Pathways and
landscaping should not create hiding spots or blind spots
that would promote criminal opportunities.
Parks Plan Review Notes Kimberly Warren No pathways requirements

Planning Review Notes Sonya Allen *Modify the existing DA's(AZ-12-010 Inst. #113005608;
H-2019-0121 Inst. #2020-062947) to remove the subject
property from the existing agreements and create one new
agreement for the development. Change the future
development plan from self-service storage and retail to
MFR. Submit a conceptual development plan and building
elevations for the proposed development.
* If the DA modification is approved, a CUP is required for a
multi -family development in the C-C & C-G zoning district
and is subject to the dimensional standards listed in UDC
Table 11-213-3 and the specific use standards for multi -family
developments in UDC 11-4-3-27.
* Future structures are required to comply with the design
standards in the Architectural Standards Manual.
* A cross -access and driveways should be provided to the
property to the east for access and interconnectivity;
emergency access only from the north as approved with
Copper Canary MDA.
* Provide noise abatement for residential uses along SH-55
in accord with UDC 11-3H-4 - encourage alternative
compliance to this standard since it's a multi -story building
and noise abatement on the ground floor won't help the
upper story residential.
* Provide a 35' wide street buffer along SH-55/Eagle,
landscaped per the standards in UDC 11-313-7C.
* Comply with parking lot landscape standards in UDC 11-
313-8C.
Please see revised UDC standards.
Note: The previous MDA application (H-2021-0059 Regency
at River Valley Phase 3) was denied by Council due to not
having the access with contiguous properties worked out and
issues with traffic, parking and associated traffic circulation -
the Council felt it wasn't the right time for approval of a
modification. The reasons for denial should be addressed in
the new application.
Wastewater Plan Review Notes Tyson Glock • Ensure that there is access path to the existing manhole
onsite.
• Proposed flow is 13,303 gpd greater then Master Plan.
Capacity is available at this time but the City makes no
guarantee that capacity will be available at the time of
application submittal.
Water Plan Review Notes Kyle Radek Public water infrastructure improvements must be reviewed
by enginerring.
