 5. Regular Agenda

 5.1 DRP25-06 PLANNING COMMISSION UPDATE: Major Development Review Permit case #
 DRP25-06, a request by Kristen Spillman of BRR Architects, on behalf of Walmart, for
 review of Site, Floor Plans, and Elevations, for a proposed building expansion on
 approximately 21-acres of land within Pinal County Parcel No. 510-12-0500, within the

 Laree Mason, Associate Planner, presented the details of item 5.1 on the Walmart

 building expansion. She explained that the project involves building an expansion of
 approximately 5,600 square feet on the existing Walmart building's perimeter footprint
 to support online grocery service.

 Mrs. Mason highlighted the proposed additions in the site plan, including the building
 expansion area, a metal canopy addition, crosswalk improvements, and the use of
 approximately 38 existing parking spaces. Her presentation showcased elevations
 illustrating changes such as a pickup sign on the building's south-facing front, a metal
 canopy on the east side for the pickup area, and ornamental fencing. Mrs. Mason
 noted that the proposal, reviewed by various city divisions during a development review
 meeting, conforms with zoning standards, enhances the project's aesthetics, suits its
 intended function, integrates elevations and color schemes effectively. In terms of
 public outreach, she detailed that the applicant sent a 600-foot notice to area property
 owners on July 3, installed a sign on-site near AutoZone on July 7, and posted the
 notice on the city website on July 9.

 Commissioner Klob asked for clarification about interior remodeling and whether it
 would affect exterior elevations or signage. Mrs. Mason replied that to her knowledge,
 the only exterior change would be the removal of storage containers to clear the area
 for expansion.

 Commissioner Klob also expressed surprise at the 44 spaces designated for pickup,
 questioning whether the service was busy enough to warrant that many spaces. He
 further inquired about the maneuvering yard outside the addition, specifically asking if
 it was intended for trucks and expressing concern about potential traffic conflicts with
 the drive access to the north side, near the apartments. He was particularly concerned
 about the volume of traffic if 44 people were picking up groceries simultaneously.

 Mrs. Mason acknowledged these concerns but noted that engineering staff didn't
 anticipate significant issues since the site would continue to function with its existing
 traffic patterns, just with some parking spaces now designated for pickup.

 Commissioner Klob concluded that while he thought the expansion was a good use of
 space, he wanted to ensure appropriate signage would direct people where to go to
 avoid conflicts between pickup traffic and delivery trucks.
 The presentation was heard.


 6. Reports from Commission and/or Staff

 Rick Williams, Planning Manager, reported that one informational item was scheduled
 for August 11, but staff were attempting to move it to the first meeting in September,
 which already had multiple items scheduled. He stated that if they could successfully
 reschedule, there would be no meeting in August.

 Chair Singleton asked if the informational item was the previously requested report
 about how other cities handle dual entrances for development. Mr. Williams confirmed
 it was and added that staff had been in contact with several cities around the valley to
 prepare the report. He also mentioned they might combine this with information about
 signage that had been requested at the previous meeting.


 7. Executive Session

 No executive session was conducted.
