ULI Arizona receives $30,000 to study affordable housing, Vitalyst Health Foundation a key partner

ULI Arizona receives $30,000 to study affordable housing, Vitalyst Health Foundation a key partner

      PHOENIX, ARIZONA (June 25, 2019) – The Urban Land Institute Arizona District Council (ULI Arizona) was recently awarded a $20,000 grant from global ULI’s Building Healthy Places Initiative, with support from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, to convene a local task force to study the intersection of health and housing in Arizona.

A key feature that made ULI Arizona’s application stand out is the financial commitment and strong partnership with Vitalyst Health Foundation, which is making an additional $10,000 contribution. ULI Arizona is one of four ULI District Councils (Arizona, Chicago, Sacramento and Tampa Bay) selected to explore land use and transportation barriers to healthy places and identify sustainable and equitable solutions.

“Lack of affordable housing is responsible for some of the most damaging health effects to individuals and families,” says Heidi Kimball, Senior Vice President, Sunbelt Holdings, and incoming Chair, ULI Arizona. “No one entity alone will be able to solve the growing affordability and equity challenges facing our communities. This grant will help us work with development industry, public sector and nonprofit leaders to explore new equitable models and approaches supporting healthy living and affordable housing.”

ULI Arizona and Vitalyst Health Foundation will work closely together and with other community partners (Maricopa Association of Governments, City of Tempe, ASU Stardust Center Affordable Homes and the Family, LISC Phoenix, and others) to examine how the lack of affordable housing in core urban areas exacerbates health inequities and how to shift policies and practices to help more people be healthier and live well in quality housing connected to essential services.

In Metro Phoenix, the gap between what residents earn and housing costs is widening, especially along transit corridors, pricing out the people who benefit the most from living near public transportation options.

C.J. Eisenbarth Hager, Director of Healthy Community Policies for Vitalyst Health Foundation, will co-chair the task force with housing expert Silvia Urrutia, Managing Partner, U Developing, LLC. Hager explains that health is inextricably tied to where people live.

“When you look at life expectancy by ZIP code across the Valley, you see short distances can reveal significant gaps in health,” Hager said. “Children born in the City of Scottsdale can expect to see their 85th birthday, whereas in South Phoenix, people are likely to only reach their 71st. As seen in other communities, ZIP codes can be more important indicators of health than people’s genetic code.”

Working over the course of a year and a half in collaboration with ULI Building Healthy Places Initiative experts and the other awarded District Councils, the task force will develop local action and outreach plans and document a synthesis of best practices that will be shared with communities throughout the region and nationally.

Founded in 1936, ULI’s mission is to provide leadership in the responsible use of land and in creating and sustaining thriving communities worldwide.

Developer breaks ground on Village at Pebble Creek, Goodyear single-family rental community

Developer breaks ground on Village at Pebble Creek, Goodyear single-family rental community

     GOODYEAR, ARIZONA (June 12, 2019) – Buoyed by a strong economy and a robust demand for rental housing in the Valley, Scottsdale-based The Empire Group of Companies last week broke ground on the Village at Pebble Creek.

Village at Pebble Creek is a single-family rental concept located at the southwest corner of Pebble Creek Parkway and West Virginia Avenue. It allows renters the convenience and privacy of a house with all the benefits of a traditional rental. It’s expected to open in December.

“What we’re doing here as developers is solving a problem,” said Randy Grudzinski, Head of Capital Markets for The Empire Group. “Maricopa County is the fastest growing market in America. Because of this growth, by 2020 we could face rental deficit of 20,000 to 30,000 units. There really isn’t enough supply.”

Grudzinski said the Village at Pebble Creek will be an attractive option to two demographics – millennials and those who prefer the convenience of renting over owning.

“Our intent is to solve this bowling ball of demand. This is one way of doing that,” Grudzinski said.

Village at Pebble Creek will feature 184 rental homes on a 15-acre site in a gated community. Amenities include pet park and pet salon; swimming pool, hot tub, firepit and barbeques; resident clubhouse with WiFi, community table, kitchen and 80-inch flat screen TV; fitness center; automated package lockers; and high-speed fiber optic Internet delivery.

In addition, each home will feature a fenced private backyard with dog door and Smart Home technology including digital thermostat, lighting controls, keyless door entry, doorbell with camera – all controlled from a smart phone or tablet app.

Kitchen amenities include stainless steel appliances including range, dishwasher, microwave, refrigerator and washer and dryer. Village at Pebble Creek will offer 1-, 2-, and 3-bedroom homes.

“We are planning for our first units to be available around the end of this year,” said Kirk Larson, Vice President of Construction for The Empire Group,” then delivering about 20 more units on a monthly basis.”

According to The Empire Group Founder and Principal Richard Felker and Principal Geoffrey Jacobs, the ownership group’s strategy is the launching of the Village brand in Goodyear with the addition of more Village communities to other parts of the Valley.

Goodyear makes sense for the Village brand with its highly-educated and skilled workforce Southwest charm. Goodyear has created the right economic conditions for businesses to thrive. There is easy access to Interstate 10, the Loop 101 and Loop 303 freeways as well as excellent transportation access to regional airports and rail services.

“This city council embraces development,” said Goodyear Mayor Georgia Lord, who was in attendance. “We really appreciate a company like The Empire Group picking this little piece of dirt. You were really smart in your research. Goodyear is one of the fastest growing cities in the Valley. With companies moving here, thank you for making this choice.”

Stellar Residential will handle property management for the Village at Pebble Creek.

“There is more to come from The Empire Group and its single-family rentals venture,” said Dale Phillips, President of Stellar Residential. “It’s even more exciting for Stellar Residential as we have been chosen to be the property management company.”

The construction and design team comprise general contractor, LSH; and architect of record, Felten Group. Subcontractors include Terrascape Consulting, civil engineering; McGough/Adamson, landscape architecture; StudioDwell, interior design; Wright Engineering, electrical consultants; and Ei, mechanical consultants.
