Phoenix 7th St. neighborhoods oppose PUD/”spot zoning” development
[Source: Save Phoenix Homes] — Single-family homeowners in the La Hacienda, Country Club, Coronado, Greater Cherry Lynn, Ashland Place, and Country Club Manor neighborhoods are opposing a seven story (up to 105 ft. tall) “planned urban development” proposed for 7th Street and Earll. Neighbors say that the proposed development could have been a positive for the area if the developer had collaborated with the neighbors to eliminate the harmful impacts.
Opponents of the development (as it now stands) encourage like-minded individuals to attend the Phoenix City Council meeting on December 3, 2008, starting at 5 p.m., and fill out a card upon their arrival with their name and address, agenda item number (yet to be determined), and stated opposition to application Z-119-07-4.
Save Phoenix Homes is an outreach effort on behalf of the neighborhood associations and hundreds of neighbors opposed to this too dense, too intense development. Opponents believe that as harmful as it is to their neighborhood, this first PUD in Phoenix threatens every Phoenix homeowner who relies on existing zoning to protect their family’s investment, privacy, and ability to reside free from inappropriate density and incompatible commercial uses.
