FOUNTAINVIEW AUTO CENTER
PLAT 208, MISSON PROFESSIONAL PLAZA, LOTS 1 & 2
13040 —13048 NORTH VERDE RIVER DRIVE
The Fountain View Auto Center is a proposed auto dealership for the sale of new and used cars
in downtown Fountain Hills. The proposed facility is three stories in height and will have a
dramatic glass entry with water feature oriented toward the intersection of Verde River Drive
and Parkview Avenue.
The first floor will contain a showroom, sales and business offices, restrooms, customer lounge,
service reception center and outdoor display area. The second and third floors will be used for
inventory parking for autos to be sold at the dealership. A vehicular ramp will connect all three
floors and the building will also have an elevator and stairs serving all three floors.
The building is planned as a non-combustible structure building, fully sprinklered, with exterior
stucco finish. Off white and natural aluminum panels will be utilized as accents and for north and
east sunscreen and the corner signage panel above the entrance. The total building area is 49,054
square feet.
Customer and staff parking will be provided by the Plat 208 shared parking areas, as is customary
for all businesses in Plat 208. Inventory parking will be provided on the second and third floor
parking decks of the building.
The project team includes owner Vladimir Buer, Architect Dohrmann Architects Inc. and Civil
Engineer Montgomery Engineering and Management, LLC, all located in Fountain Hills.

MINOR GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENTS:
As outlined in the 2010 General Plan, a Land Use designation change for a residential density increase
affecting 80 acres or less requires a Minor General Plan Amendment. The 2010 General Plan currently
designates this property as "Mixed Use" with an additional "Town Center Area Specific Plan" overlay.
he two proposed Minor General Plan Amendments will relate only to the three parcels within the proposed
Morningstar PAD. The amendments will change the land use designations as follows:
Page 2 of 9
Morningstar
P&Z Staff Report
RESOLUTION 2015-31; Minor Amendment to the Town of Fountain Hill General Plan 2010 — Downtown
.ea Specific Plan. This amendment will modify the "South End District's" development criteria to allow an
Assisted Living Facility to be a permitted use within the "South End District".
The applicant states that an assisted living facility in this location, "would provide an effective transition
between the proposed mixed-use commercial/residential uses to the north and adjacent multi -family residential
development to the south". Also that the facility, "will be an asset to the neighborhood in this mixed-use area of
Fountain Hills."
STAFF: As stated in the General Plan 2010 — Downtown Area Specific Plan, "The Downtown
Vision Plan /Area Specific Plan has been designed with the aim of developing a flexible and pro -active
framework in which the Town can work on its own, or with future developers to create comprehensive
design concepts that provide district themes, opportunities for events, environmental sensitivity, safe
pedestrian and vehicular circulation, and recommended ordinance amendments". And, as further
outlined in the South End District description, "The South End District - Envisioned as a mixed-use
downtown residential neighborhood that is complimented with small neighborhood -oriented
commercial, second story offices, and specialty shops. This district will contain a "village square" that
will provide the downtown with a prominent park".
This proposed amendment is not consistent with the stated goals of the Downtown Area Specific Plan
in this area of downtown as it lacks a mixed-use character and does not adequately address the
"prominent park / village square" element called for in the South End District.
RESOLUTION 2015-32; Minor Amendment to the Town of Fountain Hill General Plan 2010 will amend the
permitted maximum residential density from a maximum of 12 units per acre to a maximum of 27.25 units per
;re.
The applicant states that the proposed density is necessary for the project to be financially successful and that
such a density will have minimal impact on the surrounding area due to the low traffic volume generated and
quiet nature of the facility.
STAFF: Staff agrees that any residential products developed within the downtown area should be
allowed a greater density level than other areas of town might reasonably expect. The 12 units/acre
maximum density limit outlined in the General Plan does not appear to account for the unique character
anticipated for the downtown area. Staff recommends approval of the amendment if it only relates to
development within the downtown area.
ZONING AMENDMENTS:
TEXT AMENDMENT:
Ordinance #15-07 amends Section 23.06.(1) of the Zoning Ordinance by changing the requirement that any
PAD development proposal contain a minimum of five acres in area. The amendment will reduce the PAD
requirement to 3 acres within the Downtown Area only. The five acre requirement will remain in effect for other
areas of town.
STAFF: Staff believes that this proposal would be an appropriate amendment for the downtown
area regardless of the success or failure of the remainder of this current proposal and staff
recommends that this amendment be approved.

P&Z Staff Report
PLANNED AREA DEVELOPMENT (PAD):
dinance #15-08 amends the Zoning Map by creating the Morningstar PAD district within the downtown area.
The district will contain Lots 1, 2 & 3 of Plat 208, Block 7 (approximately 3.3 acres). The property is currently
zoned for mixed-use development (TCCD).
The Morningstar PAD will allow the construction of one large two-story building with 91 assisted living rooms
containing a total of 111 beds. Sixty Three (63) rooms containing seventy six (76) beds will be assisted living
rental units. Twenty eight (28) rooms containing thirty five (35) beds will be for memory care residents. The
building will be 81,550 square feet in size with a footprint of approximately 45,279 square feet. There will also
be two internal courtyards and an internal Atrium area. Building height is proposed to be 31' 3". Building
setbacks will remain the same as they are in the current TCCD zoning district.
The Morningstar PAD intends to maintain the current TCCD commercial zoning of the site but to develop it with
a residential assisted living land use rather than strictly commercial retail or office uses. The proposed PAD
regulations will allow for this by allowing the Assisted Living land use as a stand-alone use rather than as a
component of a mixed-use development. This amends both the zoning ordinance text and the zoning map.
The following amendments to the underlying TCCD zoning district regulations are being requested within the
proposed Morningstar PAD zoning district:
1. Rezone approx. 3.3 acres TCCD zoning to Morningstar PAD.
2. Include "Assisted Living Facility" as permitted use rather than a Special Use Permit use.
3. Allow greater than the 50% limit of residential square footage in a mixed-use project.
4. Reduction of required number of dumpsters from 4 to 1.
5. Re -configure parking space size from 9' wide x 19' deep, to 9' wide x 17' deep with a 2' overhang.
STAFF: Staff supports waiver items 1, 2 and 3 above as components of the Morningstar PAD if it
is approved. Staff does not recommend approval of waiver items 4 and 5. The reasons for this are
listed below under the Concept Plan review section of this report.
CONCEPT PLAN:
All proposed PAD rezoning requests must provide a Plan of Development. The Plan of Development must
show all the relevant aspects of the site development including building elevations, landscaping, signage, etc.
As this plan is a new project, a Concept Plan may be submitted in place of the Plan of Development for
approval by the Planning & Zoning Commission. The Commission may approve, approve with conditions,
continue, or deny the Concept Plan application as they deem appropriate. The reasons for the decision must
be outlined in the minutes of the meeting.
The project has been described by the developer as "Contemporary Southwest" in its architectural design.
Colors used are primarily earth -tone beiges, and browns. The building has sandstone and stone veneer
accents with some more traditional stucco areas as well. The architectural style is consistent with other
existing downtown development. It should be noted that the developer has indicated that they may wish to
alter, or eliminate some of the stone fagade areas.
As noted previously, the proposed Morningstar Assisted Living Facility will consist of one large two-story
building with 91 rooms containing a total of 111 beds. Sixty Three (63) rooms containing seventy six (76) beds
will be assisted living rental units. Twenty eight (28) rooms containing thirty five (35) beds will be for memory
care residents. The building will be 81,550 square feet in size with a footprint of approximately 45,279 square
feet. Building height is proposed to be 31'- 3". Building setbacks will remain the same as they are in the current
,CCD zoning district
Page 4 of 9
Morningstar
P&Z Staff Report
There will also be two internal courtyards and an internal Atrium area. The courtyard areas will contain seating,
water features, planters, shade structures, and some areas will be used for outdoor dining. The front entry is
:signed with decorative concrete and palm trees lining the drop-off and pick-up area. The preliminary
landscaping plan appears to meet the ordinance requirements for low water use plants and additional
landscape elements. Final landscape plans will comply with the ordinance requirements.
Site parking requirements are 1 space per 4 beds or, 28 spaces. The Morningstar PAD provides 92 parking
spaces in total with 4 spaces being ADA compliant and 18 spaces being covered parking. The Morningstar
PAD is proposing a waiver of the parking space sizes.
PARKING WAIVER REQUEST: The Zoning Ordinance requires standard parking spaces to be 9' wide by
19' deep. The waiver requests that the parking space sizes be reduced to 9' wide by 17' deep with allowance
for the additional 2' to overhang into the landscape areas.
STAFF. Staff does not recommend this waiver as it is not appropriate or necessary for this
proposal. Reduction in parking space sizes will effectively create an entire parking lot of compact
vehicle spaces. This will inevitably lead to issues with larger vehicles. Given that there is more than
enough room available to provide parking spaces that conform to the minimum size standards staff
recommends that this request be denied and removed from the PAD guidelines.
DUMPSTER WAIVER REQUEST: The Zoning Ordinance requires 1/3 cubic yard of disposal capacity for
each unit. 90 units = 30 cubic yards of required capacity. Standard dumpsters contain 8 cubic yards. Under the
provisions of the ordinance this requires 3.75 dumpsters at a minimum. The applicants have requested that
this requirement be reduced to one dumpster.
STAFF: Staff does not recommend such a waiver. The site has ample room for the placement of
additional dumpsters. Staff also wishes to note that the ordinance anticipates that the basic ordinance
requirement may be inadequate and specifically states that the Community Development Director may
require additional dumpsters when deemed necessary. With this in mind, staff does not recommend
this waiver and recommends that this request be denied and removed from the PAD guidelines.
Signage is not part of this Concept Plan and will be permitted separately according to the requirements in
Chapter 6 of the Zoning Ordinance.
Risk Analysis (options or alternatives with implications):
Approval of the Minor General Plan Amendment (RES 2015-31) to allow an assisted living facility to be a
permitted use in the South End District of the Downtown Area Specific Plan, will allow an Assisted Living
facility, as outlined in the PAD proposal, to be developed in the Morningstar PAD zoning district. Denial of this
Minor General Plan amendment will necessitate the denial of the entire proposal since the assisted living land
use would be effectively prohibited within the Downtown Area Specific Plan South End district overlay.
Approval of the Minor General Plan Amendment (RES 2015-32) to allow the maximum residential density to
increase from 12 units per acre to 28 per acre, will allow the proposed facility to have the requested 91 rooms
with 111 beds. Denial of this Minor General Plan amendment will require that the applicant either revise the
appropriate proposal and resubmit, or abandon the proposal.
Approval of the Zoning Text Amendment to Section 23.06.(1) (ORD 15-07) will change the minimum PAD lot
size requirement from 5 acres to 3 acres within the downtown area and allow the Morningstar PAD to be
considered. Denial of the Text Amendment will require that the applicant either revise the proposal to somehow
increase the property size to 5 acres and resubmit, or abandon the proposal.
k;-,pproval of the Morningstar PAD (ORD 15-08) will rezone the 3.3 acre property from the current TCCD zoning
district designation and allow development in accordance with the adopted Morningstar PAD district guidelines.
Page 5 of 9
Morningstar
P&Z Staff Report
Approval of the Morningstar PAD will rezone the 3.3 acre property and adopt the Morningstar PAD district
^uidelines. Approval of this rezoning is however contingent upon both Minor General Plan Amendments, as
311 as the Zoning Text Amendment being approved. If any one of these amendments are denied, the
Morningstar PAD must also be denied. Denial of the Morningstar PAD will require that the applicant either
revise the proposal as appropriate and resubmit, or abandon the proposal.
Approval of the Concept Plan will allow the applicant to design construction drawings and proceed to the Site
development and Building Permit processes if/when Town Council approves the remainder of the applications
for this proposal as listed above. Denial of the Concept Plan by the Planning & Zoning Commission will require
that the applicant either revise the proposal as appropriate and resubmit, appeal the denial to the Town
Council, or abandon the proposal.
Fiscal Impact (initial and ongoing costs; budget status):
The applicants estimate that the project will provide approximately $1,400,000 in near-term development and
construction related taxes and fees. Also, the project will provide recurring tax revenues and, 70 full-time and
part-time permanent jobs will be created.
The Fire Department estimates that they will respond to approximately 40 calls per month for a facility of this
nature.
Staff Recommendation(s):
RES 2015-31 — MINOR GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT:
Staff recommends that the Planning & Zoning Commission forward a recommendation to the Town
Council to DENY the Downtown Area Specific Plan Amendment which would allow an Assisted Living
Facility to be a permitted use within the "South End District'.

2. Project Summary — MorningStar of Fountain Hills
MorningStar of Fountain Hills is planned as a new class -A, institutional Assisted Living and
Memory Care community strategically located in Fountain Hills, Arizona to provide a high-
quality senior living option to the established, growing, and underserved areas of Fountain Hills,
Scottsdale, Tempe, Mesa, and the North and Eastern areas of Phoenix. The project will be
developed (along with NSG) and managed by MorningStar Senior Living ("MorningStar"), a
highly experienced and successful owner, operator and developer of similar communities. The
two-story, wood -construction community will be comprised of approximately 81,550 gross
square feet in 91 total units of which 63 will be Assisted Living ("AL") rental units (76 licensed
beds) and 28 will be Memory Care - rental units (35 licensed beds) designed specifically for
residents needing special care for Alzheimer's and other memory impairments ("Memory Care"
or "MC"). The Community will include state-of-the-art design and significant amenity space and
will be well positioned from a location and pricing perspective to meet the substantial demand
for senior housing and care in the area.
Services & Amenities
Assisted Living services are intended for seniors who need assistance with the activities of daily
living, including eating, bathing, dressing and medication management, but do not require 24-
hour care. Working closely with residents, their family members and physicians, MorningStar
staff members create individualized personalized care plans intended to meet each resident's
specific needs and preferences.
MorningStar offers communities that wow the
senses, lifestyles fitted to senior needs, and a
holistic attitude of genuine care. Residents enjoy
amenities like salons, spa baths, theaters and
libraries as well as meals, social activities,
housekeeping and other services. Memory Care
will be provided in a secure homelike environment
by impassioned staff members who are specifically
trained to understand and meet the unique needs
of residents suffering from Alzheimer's and other
dementia -related diseases.
Both Assisted Living and Memory Care residents may select private or companion suites from a
variety of floorplans and may select from a menu of services including meals, housekeeping,
transportation and others. The MorningStar resident units are not like a typical dwelling unit
found in a senior apartment building. Since all meals are served restaurant style in the
common dining room, the units are designed as bedroom suites without cooking facilities. The
f commercial kitchen which serves the community is centrally located.
5
In addition to the common dining area, the building offers residents a variety of common living
spaces that complement the residents' individual bedroom suites. These common living spaces,
such as a parlor, library, bistro, theater and other
activity areas, create the very comfortable,
residential setting for which Morningstar Senior
Living communities are known. MorningStar of
Fountain Hills will employ approximately 70 full-
'"`' ` time and part-time staff, but the maximum
number of staff on site at any one time will be
approximately 25, which occurs between the
hours of 10:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. when meal
service and a number of activities are being
offered.
The exterior amenities provided at MorningStar of Fountain Hills will include:
• Large community porches for year-round use
• Secured courtyard and walking path for Memory Care residents
• Grand lobby entrance and lounge area
• Bistro, as well as full dining room facility
• High quality exterior building elements

L5. Site Conditions
"MorningStar of Fountain Hills" is planned as an Assisted Living ("AL") and Memory Care ("MU)
facility consisting of a maximum of 91 units with some units offering shared occupancy for a
total of 111 licensed Assisted Living and Memory Care beds. American Seniors Housing
Association and The National Investment Center for Seniors Housing defines an "Assisted Care
Facility" as a State regulated rental property where supportive care is provided by trained
employees to residents who are unable to live independently and require assistance with
activities of daily living (ADL). MorningStar of Fountain Hills will offer central dining, access to
meals, housekeeping, linen service and transportation. Additional (ADLs) will include
management of medication, bathing, dressing, toileting, ambulating and eating services.
"MorningStar of Fountain Hills" will act as an effective transition project between higher -impact
retail, commercial and high-density residential areas to the north and east and lower -impact
residential uses to the south. While the assisted living use is commercial in nature due to its
operations and scale, the extremely low traffic impact, noise and activity surrounding the
building and operation, along with the heavily landscaped grounds, high-quality exterior
materials and relatively low parking requirements create an effective buffer to transition (or
"step down") from higher -impact uses (which, based upon traffic, noise, activity volume and
light impact are not a desirable neighbor for lower -density residential) to lower -impact
residential.

The colors and materials proposed for this project were designed to be compatible
with the desert tones and Mediterranean elements used in the adjacent
developments. The predominant material for both buildings will be stucco. The
stucco colors for the Building are cream color with contrasting accent mix of light and
dark beige tones, with the tile roof using similar earthen tones.
f. A graphic representation of the proposed landscaping treatment, plant materials,
fences, walls and other site plan and open space improvements are shown on the
Landscape Plans, along with the following narrative:
Landscape Theme
The entire grounds of the facility will be paved or landscaped. The landscape plant
palette includes native desert species in combination with flowering accent trees and
shrubs. Well shaded and landscaped outdoor seating areas are located along the
walks and within the courts of buildings. The resident outdoor amenity areas may
include umbrellas, trellises, benches, tables and chairs. The interior courts may also
include planter boxes for residents to plant vegetables or cut flowers. The landscape
design includes a combination c.m.u. and wrought iron fencing along the public
rights -of -ways and xeriscape landscaping utilizing indigenous plant material. The
landscape areas between the property line and back of the existing walk includes
existing landscaping. A series of detention areas are planned for the site, sheet flows
from the west are designed to be carried north and south around the building via a
drainage swale in the parking driveways. Flows will then be directed to two
additional basins located along the Paul Nordin Parkway frontage. On-site drainage
will be directed toward surface driveways around the building and collected along the
east property parking area. Minimal low -impact lighting will be utilized along paths of
travel, which connects walkways from the site to street frontages as well as to
adjoining property to the north. The walkways will be tree -lined and shaded in
accordance with Town standards.
g. There are no known proposed arterial, collector or local streets.
h. There are no known lands proposed to be dedicated for public purpose.

L Master water, sewer and drainage plans are shown on the civil construction plans,
along with the following narrative:
Utilities
Extension of existing utilities from existing right-of-ways will be developed with site
improvements and placed underground. Water service will be provided by EPCOR
Water Arizona, Inc. and wastewater service will be provided by the Fountain Hills
Sanitary District. Existing stub -outs are in place for each parcel.
Drainage
The property will be responsible to provide on-site detention for runoff from a 100 -
year 2 -hour storm event through the use of detention basins will then bleed water to
existing roadway catch basins.
j. Traffic impact statement is provided within the appendix under exhibit A.
7. Parking Plan and Circulation Patterns
The location, numbers of spaces, dimensions, circulation patterns and surface materials for all
off-street parking and loading areas, driveways, access way and pedestrian walkways are shown
on the Architectural Site Plan, along with the below narrative.
Traffic and Circulation
An assisted care facility is an extremely low traffic generator and requires limited
parking. Therefore, an Assisted Living facility has significantly less traffic impact on
surrounding areas than most other commercial and multi -family residential uses.
The facility's primary driveway shall have one (1) two-way driveway with a maximum
width of twenty eight (28) feet located on Paul Nordin Parkway and will be configured
to provide a smooth entry transition relative to adjacent parking spaces.
A secondary drive is located at the northwest corner of the property on Verde River
Drive. Drop-off, delivery and turnaround areas are located on the south side of the
facility under the porte-cochere. The facility will generate low trip counts and will have
low peak hour impact along each street corridor.
18
MW
Parking
Parking is provided around the perimeter of the property with 18 covered spaces and
70 surface spaces, with 4 handicapped spaces for a total of 92 spaces. The parking is
screened from the public rights-of-way by a three (3) foot low screen walls and
landscaping.
Required parking shall be defined by the planned land use categories. See Section 7.04
of the Town Zoning Ordinance. MorningStar has provided a minimum of .83 spaces
per bed whereas the code requires 0.25 spaces per bed.
8. Signage
The location, dimensions, height, area, materials and lighting of signage are shown below, along
with the below narrative.
Monument signage shall comply with the proposed monument sign exhibit below.
Signage area shall not exceed Town standards and will include a descriptive phrase to
identify the functions of the facility. The design and colors of the sign base will use
similar materials as the main buildings. All signage will be submitted for review and
shall comply with the Town's standards.

9. Lighting
The location, height and type of outdoor lighting are shown on the Electrical Plans. Exterior site
s .
lighting shall conform to the illumination results shown on the Electrical Plans. At no time shall
the amount of light leaving the property be greater than zero lumen. On-site exterior lighting
shall also conform to the Fountain Hills Dark Sky Ordinance.
C. DEVELOPMENT SCHEDULE
The project will be developed in one phase. Upon PAD approval from Town Council and
immediately after the issuance of building permits, Morningstar of Fountain Hills shall
commence construction in the summer of 2015 and open the facility in the summer of 2016.
D. ECONOMIC IMPACT ON THE TOWN OF FOUNTAIN HILLS
The proposed senior Assisted Living community is a very low intensity use with considerably
less impact than alternative commercial uses that would be allowed on the site under its
current TCCD zoning. The community for seniors will be an ideal neighbor to surrounding
residential and mixed use commercial/residential with minimal traffic generation and site
activity. Specifically, the project is expected to generate less than one car every five minutes
during peak traffic hour, as supported by the traffic impact statement attached as Exhibit A.
Since very few Assisted Living residents continue to own and drive cars, the traffic generated by
the project is limited primarily to employees and visitors. In addition, employee shift changes
occur at "off-peak" times, which further mitigates traffic impacts to the surrounding area.
While MorningStar of Fountain Hills will generate exceptionally low impacts to the surrounding
area and the Town as a result of its low traffic generation, minimal reliance on schools, police,
fire and other infrastructure, will create a meaningful economic engine that will benefit the
Town of Fountain Hills both immediately and through recurring tax revenue and long-term
employment.
MorningStar of Fountain Hills will create over 70 brand new full-time and part-time direct
permanent jobs resulting in an annual payroll exceeding $1,700,000 before considering
benefits, payroll taxes and other employment costs. Notably, consistent with MorningStar's
foundational principle of "Investing Generously in Our Employees' Ability to Serve," full health
benefits will be available to all employees working a minimum of only 24 hours per week, the
cost of which will be paid 75% by MorningStar.
In addition to long-term direct job creation and the resulting economic impacts, the
construction of the project is expected to generate over 100 direct construction jobs with total
construction wages exceeding $5,000,000. Further, near-term taxes and fees resulting from the
development and construction process are expected to exceed $1,400,000.
20
1W
Perhaps most importantly, Morningstar of Fountain Hills will provide the Town with another
housing choice for seniors whose needs for assistance with activities of daily living have
increased, yet who want to remain in the community. We believe the MorningStar of Fountain
Hills Assisted Living Community will be an asset to the neighborhood in this mixed-use area of
Fountain Hills.

Landmark Design Architects
14555 N. Scottsdale Road, Suite 240
Scottsdale, AZ 85254
RE: NEC Paul Nordin Parkway and Verde River Drive — Traffic Impact Statement
Fountain Hills, Arizona
Dear Mr. Felkins:
The purpose of this letter is to address the site specific issues for the proposed assisted living
development located on the northeast corner of the intersection of Paul Nordin Parkway and Verde
River Drive in Fountain Hills, Arizona. This letter outlines our findings regarding the traffic generation
of the proposed 91 unit, 111 beds, assisted living development.
The development is proposed to consist of assisted living uses on approximately 3.34 acres. The
assisted living uses will consists of 91 dwelling units with 111 beds. The site is currently vacant.
Access to the proposed development will be provided by two driveways. One driveway will access the
site from Paul Nordin Parkway. This driveway is a full access driveway located approximately 720
ILfeet west of Saguaro Boulevard and approximately 485 feet west of the adjacent hotel development
driveway to the east. The second driveway is a full access driveway located approximately 330 feet
south of Avenue of the Fountains along Verde River Drive. A site plan for the proposed development
is attached.
Proposed Trip Generation
Trip generation rates published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers' (ITE) Trip Generation
Manual, 9th Edition were used to calculate the trip generation characteristics of the proposed land
uses. Trip generation calculations for the proposed assisted living use were determined using ITE
Code 254 for Assisted Living. Trip generation calculations for the proposed development are
summarized in Table 1. Trip generation calculations are attached.

The trip generation calculations indicate that on an average weekday the proposed development has
the potential to generate 296 daily trips, with 16 trips occurring in the AM peak hour and 24 trips
occurring in the PM peak hour.

Based on the results of this analysis the proposed assisted living development's trip generation would
not result in a significant change in traffic conditions or significant change in delay in the area
surrounding the project.

Section 3 — Project Narrative
Project Summary- MorningStar of Fountain Hills
MorningStar of Fountain Hills is planned as a new class -A, institutional Assisted
1111110. Living and Memory Care community located in Fountain Hills, Arizona to provide a
high- quality senior living option to the established, growing, and underserved
areas of Fountain Hills, Scottsdale, Tempe, Mesa, and the north and eastern areas of
Phoenix. The project will be developed (along with NSG) and managed by
MorningStar Senior Living ("MorningStar"), a highly experienced and successful
owner, operator and developer of similar communities. The two-story, wood -
construction community will be comprised of approximately 81,550 gross square
feet in 91 total units, of which 63 will be Assisted Living ("AL") rental units (76
licensed beds) and 28 will be Memory Care rental units (35 licensed beds) designed
specifically for residents needing special care for Alzheimer's and other memory
impairments ("Memory Care" or "MC"). The Community will include state-of-the-
art design and significant amenity space and will be well positioned from a location
and pricing perspective to meet the substantial demand for senior housing and care
in the area.
Services & Amenities
Assisted Living services are intended for seniors who need assistance with the
activities of daily living, including eating, bathing, dressing and medication
management, but do not require 24-hour care. Working closely with residents, their
family members and physicians, MorningStar staff members create individualized
personalized care plans intended to meet each resident's specific needs and
preferences.
Page 7 of 11
2402109.2
Morningstar PAD
16750 — 16820 N. Paul Nordin Parkway
ORD# 15-08
Residents enjoy amenities like salons, spa baths, theaters and libraries as well as
meals, social activities, housekeeping and other services. Memory Care will be
provided in a secure home -like environment by staff members who are specifically
trained to understand and meet the unique needs of residents suffering from
Alzheimer's and other dementia -related diseases.
Both Assisted Living and Memory Care residents may select private or companion
suites from a variety of floorplans and may select from a menu of services including
meals, housekeeping, transportation and others. The MorningStar resident units are
not like a typical dwelling unit found in a senior apartment building. Since all meals
are served restaurant style in the common dining room, the units are designed as
bedroom suites without cooking facilities. The commercial kitchen which serves the
community is centrally located.
In addition to the common dining area, the building offers residents a variety of
common living spaces that complement the residents' individual bedroom suites,
such as a parlor, library, bistro, theater and other activity areas. MorningStar of
Fountain Hills will employ approximately 70 full- time and part-time staff, but the

depicted on Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference, is hereby rezoned

2401721.2
SECTION 3. Approval of the Morningstar PAD zoning is conditioned on development
of the project commencing within three years of the effective date of this Ordinance, subject to
the following:
Prior to the expiration of the three-year time condition, the property owner or
authorized representative may submit an application for an extension to the Town.
Submittal of an application for extension of the three-year time condition does not
toll the running of the time condition. Should the three-year time condition expire
between the submittal of an application for a time extension and the public
hearing on the requested extension, the Morningstar PAD shall be subject to
reversion as set forth below. Upon receipt of a request for extension, the Town's
Zoning Administrator shall submit the request to the Town Council for
consideration at a public hearing held as set forth below.
2. The Town Council shall, after notices via certified mail to the property owner and
authorized representative have been provided at least 15 days prior to the date of
the scheduled hearing, hold a public hearing on the extension request. The Twxn
Council may, in its sole discretion, grant an extension of the time condition,
subject to the limitation on the number of extensions set forth below. If the public
hearing is held after expiration of the time condition, the Town Council may also,
at that public hearing, take action to revert the zoning on the property to its prior
zoning classification.
3. In the event the project has not commenced within the three-year time period and
no request for time extension has been received as provided above, the Zoning
Administrator may submit the Morningstar PAD to the Town Council for
consideration of reversion, pursuant to the hearing procedure set forth below.
4. The Zoning Administrator shall notify the property owner and authorized
representative by certified mail of the Town Council's intention to hold a hearing
to determine compliance with the three-year time condition, and to revert the
zoning on the property to its former classification if the condition is determined
by the Town Council to have not been met. All such notices shall be made at least
15 days prior to the date of the scheduled hearing. The Town Council may, in its
sole discretion, either grant an extension of the time condition, subject to the
limitation on the number of extensions set forth below, or revert the zoning on the
property to its prior zoning classification.
5. The Town Council may grant up to four one-year extensions of the time
condition.
6. Following the commencement of the project, the Zoning Administrator shall
monitor the project to ensure it continues to completion. Upon the Zoning
Administrator's initial determination that the project is not being actively pursued,
no further review or approval of any project site plan or plat shall occur until it is
determined that good cause exists for delay in the construction of the project.
2401721.2
2
R
Should the project fail to proceed, a public hearing shall be held by the Town
Council to determine the cause of the delay. At the public hearing on the matter, if
the Town Council determines that there is not good cause for the delay, it may
impose additional conditions on the Morningstar PAD to ensure compliance. If
such additional conditions are not met, the Zoning Administrator may set the
matter for public hearing, according to the process set forth in subsection above,
on a possible reversion of the Morningstar PAD zoning. If the Town Council
determines that good cause exists, it may amend the Morningstar PAD
development schedule.

"commencement" shall mean physical vertical construction activity in accordance
with a valid building permit issued by the Town.

First Submittal
I have reviewed the above referenced submittal for conformance with District
requirements and have the following comments:
1. While what appears to be a grease interceptor is shown on the water and
wastewater plan, it is not properly labeled or shown how it will connect to the
sewer. It is recommended that a direct connection to the sewer is made in
order to avoid potential odor problems within the proposed facility.
2. There is significant proposed vegetation proposed over what appears to be the
grease interceptor for the proposed facility.
3. If the proposed sewer within the Planned Area Development is to be private,
the General Notes for Sanitary District facilities are not needed.
4. If densities of development increase over what is currently planned for in
existing zoning, developer will be responsible for any necessary upsizing of
downstream sewer facilities.

Subject: Proposal for development in Fountain Hills
Hi Bob,
We are full time residents and live in Village at Towne Center in Fountain Hills. We aren't
able to attend the town meetings scheduled for June 11th, June 16th and June 18th, but we
would like to express our thoughts on the proposal for the development in town.
We would like to see new development of businesses and restaurants here in town and feel that
they are much needed if the town is going to be able to advance economically. If the
development is designed and thought out thoroughly, it could add much to the value of
properties and enhance our already beautiful town. However, we are concerned and opposed to
anything that is four story in the center of town and feel that the limit should be three
stories. Four story buildings will dwarf the remaining businesses in town and will look
overpowering and out of place. We are also very much opposed on allowing apartments above
the commercial buildings on Avenue of the Fountains and more apartments along Verde River Dr.
for the following reasons. Four hundred apartments will bring in too many transient people
and the problems and crime that will go along with that many rentals. It seems that all
residences above the commercial stores and restaurants should be upscale luxury condos;
example: Kierland Commons. Our town stands out in the Phoenix Valley and our property values
are high compared to many of the other towns in the valley. We shouldn't do anything that
will cause our property values to fall or create an undesirable ambiance in our town, because
it's unique and needs to remain that way. This proposed development has the potential to
eate a more desirable town or detract from the beauty and feeling of safety and security
Gnat we now have.
Thanks for listening to our thoughts.
Regards,
Dan & Jane Granger

Subject: development
we live in the villages at towne center in a unit facing the hotel on paul nordin parkway and
have owned it for seven years. wehave read the publicity about the proposed development
behind the hotel and are strongly opposed. although a high end assisted living facility for
200 would probably a positive,the addition of apartments and commercial buildings would be a
disaster and the resulting noise,overcrowding,traffic and parking issues would literally
destroy the nature of the town. the idea of buildings 4 stories high is truly absurd. the
town already has many vacant commercial spaces and apparently an application for another
assisted living facility was approved for saguaro and shea so is another new one realistic?
creating large commercial and non owned residential space unlikely to be totally occupied
would make the center of town a ghost town. and even if occupied the overcrowding of traffic
and parking would make the town a mini scottsdale just so a few could profit. either way the
project is very risky and should not be approved in the form submitted.thank you for
considering our concerns. btw the renewal project for the median walkway,park on avenue of
the fountains is first rate,thanks for that

First let me say that I am a new property owner this year and love this town and the way that it is
run. Everyone who works in government generally only hears negative responses and and
comments. Please know I for one appreciate all the hard work each and every one of you puts in
to make Fountain Hills the wonderful place it is for us all to live and thrive in. In some regards
this is true of this e-mail. I do know you will do what is best for the general population in town
and can understand that as hard as it can be at times.
I am writing to all of you today to express a concern I have about the proposed development
announced in the FHT for Avenue of the Fountains. It is a very biased and personal view but I
am quite confident there are others with similar points of view as mine. When my wife and I
decided that Fountain Hills was the right community to settle in for us we did so because we
wanted to enjoy the wonderful views because of the rolling nature of the land. We settled on a
condo in Town Center Crossing because we have a wonderful clear view of Four Peaks, Red
Rock and the town name sake fountain. I clearly realized that the lot in front of the town hall was
not developed and potentially could be but figured it would probably be a good bet that the
tallest building to be allowed would be three stories. That is the general nature of the area. I see
that Shea LLC is proposing a four story building and I am very concerned that will wipe out at
least one if not two of our views we purchased. A three story building would certainly impede
the view of the rest of the mountain range but I figured it wouldn't block everything because the
property does drop down some along the avenue to the fountains. I am all for the development of
the site and it is a prime location but have this concern none the less. Frankly I am a bit surprised
anyone would want to add empty space because there is already so much from the economic
downturn in the vicinity but that is not for us to challenge.
If this development blocks my view it will also be blocking the view of many others along the
streets in the vicinity and thus reduce property values for individuals. That is the crux of the
matter along with the loss of the views that I so desperately wanted, searched for and paid for
when I bought here. As you consider this development proposal please keep this in mind if it
hadn't already crossed it.
Sincerely,
Cliff King
