An office building at 733 E. University Drive in Mesa is to be converted into a 12-unit apartment complex.
A substantial conformance improvement permit to allow the conversion was approved by the Mesa Board of Adjustment in a recent 7-0 vote of a consent agenda with other items.
The development is in the multiple-residential 4 zoning district, which allows apartments, Staff Planner Jennifer Merrill said at a study session prior to the board’s June 1 meeting.
“The site plan shows the two existing buildings on the west side of the property; they are proposed to be connected. There is increased landscaping and a reduction to the overall lot coverage, so there’s a reduction to the asphalt — there’s quite a bit of asphalt on the property now,” she said.
