Architectural Site Plan and Exterior Elevations.
This project is a portion Lot 4 of the Bell and Dysart Commerce Center located North

a single owner-occupied building with 11,694 SF for office, sales and storage use
project. Containing approximately 54,340 square feet or 1.25 acres, more or less. A
Final Plat Amendment will be required to create the two separate lots from the existing
overall Lot 4. Currently this site is unimproved and is generally in an undisturbed
desert state, with no visible signs of development or structures on the property.
Adjacent properties have historically and currently been utilized for Industrial Storage /
Warehouse in open fenced yards with minimal structures.
From an developmental point, the project is adequately parked and utilizes shared
drive access and circulation to create an efficient and complimentary site layout in
accordance with Surprise Design Guidelines and effective Site Planning. This project
has two drive entries, an outdoor employee area, safe pedestrian routes throughout
with connections to the public right of way. Accessible parking has been provided as
shown per the attached plans and in compliance with all ADA and code requirements.
All service areas are screened from the public right of way and providing a clean, and
accessible progression through the site for vehicles and pedestrians.
Phasing, this project will be constructed in one phase as shown on the Site Plan.
The project design concept is:
• Contemporary building design with proposed southwest colors, compatible with
the desert environment and Southwestern Architectural Style.
• The uses of different materials and elements bring the overall scale of the
project to a comfortable pedestrian level.
• The walkways and the landscape motif are pedestrian in scale.
