Rezoning requests have been filed with the city of Scottsdale for a property at the northwest corner of Scottsdale Road and Lincoln Drive.
Narazona Corp. has filed requests for a minor General Plan Amendment to change the land-use designation from Mixed-use Neighborhoods to Commercial and a Zoning District Map Amendment from Commercial Office (C-0) and Central Business (C-2) for a 1.7 acre site at 6500 N. Scottsdale Road.
Arizona Corporation Commission records list Nazar Nassar and Fahi Nasser as the managers of Narazona Corp.
The aim of the rezoning requests is to allow for more potential users for the property, according to plans filed with the city.
“The purpose of this request is simply to update the zoning designation for this small parcel to be more in line with the remainder of the commercial center it functions in unison with. The request will enable the Property owner to market to more appropriate tenants and desired uses which are already permitted on the remainder of the center, but not afforded to this site because of the antiquated C-O zoning designation. For example, ‘retail’ and ‘home furnishing shops’ are not currently permitted on the Property – but strangely enough, they are permitted just a few feet away in the remainder of the commercial with which the Property shares access with. This application will correct this anomaly,” according to the property owner’s plans with the city.
There are two buildings on the property totaling 14,688 square feet. The property owner stresses in its rezoning submissions that the buildings “will remain as they are today, and only minor cosmetic improvements are planned.”
Chouinard Design Studio is serving as the architect of the project.
