AONA Neighborhood Meeting

Learn about, ask questions: 48th Street & Indian School project  

Since we learned about the application to rezone the property, formerly known as the R & G Ranch, AONA has kept residents updated on the project and application with emails, links to documents submitted by the applicant, sharing a survey of residents about the project and notifying residents of neighborhood meetings by the developer’s attorney.

Now, AONA will sponsor and hold its own neighborhood meeting.

AONA’s Neighborhood Meeting

WHAT: to inform and discuss 48th & Indian School project application

WHEN: Tuesday, September 29, 2026

TIME: 6pm - 7:30pm

WHERE: Church of Latter Day Saints, 3920 N 44th Place

(enter via Fairmount Ave. on north, or Indianola Ave. off 44th St.)

AONA representatives will attempt to answer your questions to the best of our ability. We’ll also focus on how the city’s zoning process works and  how you can participate—either by going to meetings to speak or sending comments to decisionmakers.

Please notify your neighbors and ask them to sign up for our emails if they haven’t yet done so. AONA residents can sign up here.

In case you missed it—

Project application documents here:
See what the developer is proposing

1. Site plan

The site plan is the 2D mechanical drawing of how the proposed development will be layed out on the property

2. Elevations

Elevations show the architectural drawing of heights, sizes and dimensions of the buildings from a ground level view

3. Landscape plan

The landscape plan provides a roadmap to the types and placement of vegetation—trees, shrubs, plantings—on the site.

4. Renderings

This is a computer generated "golden hour" view of what the entryway and residences will look like. The develop has modified the plans for a more contemporary look, but we do not have those plans in hand yet.

5. Project narrative

The document submitted to the City of Phoenix Planning and Development Department for the application is called a “Project Narrative.” It outlines the requirements the developer must meet and how it plans to meet them.

6. Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA—not attached)

A Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) is a study that evaluates how a proposed development will affect the surrounding road network and identifies measures to mitigate any negative impacts, such as congestion. We are not including the document here due to its length. If, however, you would like to request a link to the document now, contact us at aonainfo@gmail.com  

Reminder: key items for proposed development

These are some key elements of the proposed development made by the applicant:

  1. The plan is to build 60 homes on the site

  2. Homes are 2 stories + parapet, for total height of 37’

  3. All ingress/egress will be on 48th Street, 250’ south of Indian School.

  4. There has been and continues to be extensive discussion about safety issues across the 48th Street linear park and how the developer is addressing them.

  5. There are multiple components regarding the entryway, the visibility triangle and safety features that the applicant will be adding.

  6. The sidewalk on Indian School will be improved with Arcadia HS students and pedestrians in mind.

We will be keeping neighbors informed about the entire process and will share that info as we receive it. In the meantime, please send us your comments and questions about the project at aonainfo@gmail.com
