COVID-19 Update
Deputy City Manager Shannon Anderson gave an update to Mayor and Council on the updated COVID data.
Slides included:
Jim Cross asked Council if there was a firm date set to open up events for outdoor events with the new CDC guidelines.
Matthew Ziegler thanked Council for continuing the discussion. He spoke about the challenges of planning outdoor events without a firm date for reopening and mentioned that he and other event planners have been looking outside of City limits to hold their events. He spoke about the new CDC guidance for outdoor events.
Chris Scully encouraged the Council to work with event planners for creating events this summer and offered some solutions to mitigate risk.
Councilmember Aslan asked Mr. Ziegler about vaccine passports and if he has any ideas on how to implement vaccine passports at an event like Hullabaloo. Mr. Ziegler stated that he would potentially ask people to bring their vaccination card to the event for entry. He stated that he is hopeful that it would not be necessary. Mr. Ziegler stated that he believes he has the right to require a vaccine for his private event. City Attorney Sterling Solomon stated that the governor preempted cities and towns for requiring a vaccine passport, but that does not preclude a private business from doing so.
Councilmember Aslan asked Mr. Ziegler if his planning for Hullabaloo is limited by crowd capacity limits. Mr. Ziegler stated that it is hard to sell event sponsorships if he is unclear on the event capacity. Councilmember Aslan asked how many participants Mr. Ziegler would expect at Hullabaloo this year. Mr. Ziegler replied that the capacity at Wheeler Park is 2,500, and the most they have had pre-pandemic was 2,200 at peak with about 5,000 people during the two-day event. Councilmember Aslan asked how the capacity calculator compares with that number. Councilmember Aslan stated that he believes that there is a path forward. Mr. Ziegler stated that even if Council allowed his event to go on with full capacity, he understands that there is a risk inherent with the decision and that he can cancel if things go poorly in the future.
Parks and Recreation and Open Space Director Rebecca Sayers stated that the capacity of Wheeler Park would be from 400 people to 531 using the current calculators.
Mayor Deasy asked Council their opinion on a July 1st opening.
Councilmember Shimoni stated that he is comfortable with reopening outdoor events on July 1. He added that he is comfortable with that date being earlier as well.
Councilmember Aslan stated that he is encouraged by the numbers he is seeing because they are stable. He addressed the CDC guidelines and how they impact large outdoor crowds. He added that the State of Arizona does not have a mask mandate and that the local municipality is preempted from one. He stated that a nice compromise would be to lift the capacities a bit and encourage event planners to require masks and adherence to CDC guidelines. He added that variants are created and spread through crowds with mixed statuses of immunity. He stated that it is important to keep the tools at hand, such as the capacity calculator.
Vice Mayor Daggett stated that she is comfortable with a July 1 date for events to occur without capacity limits. She would ask event organizers to strongly encourage attendees to stay distanced.
Councilmember Salas referred to her notes from the meeting with Dr. David Englethaler and stated that she is comfortable moving forward with removing restrictions on capacity on July 1.
Councilmember Sweet stated that it is not an easy decision, but that opening events with no capacity limits as of July 1 is what she is comfortable with, but that she realizes that we might need to back pedal if things change.
Mayor Deasy shared a photo on the circulating variants over time. He stated that he is comfortable with a July 1 opening if the metrics are at a minimal transmission level on all three levels. If the metrics are not at the minimal levels, he would like to reconsider opening in June. He asked if Council is comfortable with that stipulation.
Councilmember Shimoni stated that he would like to talk about that later in the year, possibly in June. He stated that he believes he supports that, but that he would still consider moderate transmission.
Vice Mayor Daggett stated that she supports revisiting this in June if needed, but that she prefers to see what metrics are being used at that time.
Mayor Deasy addressed the masks and CDC options. He stated that he is in favor of Option 1 for both.
Vice Mayor Daggett asked for clarification. Ms. Anderson stated that the COVID mitigation efforts could stay in effect after July 1. Vice Mayor Daggett stated that she is in favor of Option 1 and to follow CDC guidelines.
Councilmember Aslan, Councilmember Shimoni, and Councilmember Sweet stated that the city should be following CDC guidelines.
Councilmember Salas stated she is in favor of following the CDC guidelines and would like to have a discussion on herd immunity in Coconino County with the County.
Councilmember Shimoni asked if CDC guidelines would request that events like the July 4th parade would require people to wear masks.

Consideration of creating the proposed Neighborhood Community Commercial (NCC) zone with a maximum building height of 45 feet and the recommended process for the City Council to consider initiating applications to rezone certain areas of the Southside, North End, and Sunnyside neighborhoods to the zone if approved
Zoning Code Manager Dan Symer presented on the creation of a proposed Neighborhood Community Commercial (NCC) zone for certain areas of the Southside, North End, Sunnyside neighborhoods.
Slides included:
Mr. Symer explained that the process stems from the Council's adoption of a policy strategy, which included reducing the height limit from 65 feet to 45 feet. After adopting the Southside Neighborhood Plan, these policies were implemented. The recommendation is to conduct public outreach in individual neighborhoods rather than as a group. If the Southside is the only neighborhood ready to proceed, zoning must be in place before moving to the next neighborhood.
Councilmember Aslan questioned why Sunnyside would be last, to which Mr. Symer responded that Sunnyside lacks a neighborhood plan, making it the hardest area for effective outreach. He suggested waiting for warmer weather to start outreach there, as many residents do not have access to computers, and it would be the most expensive outreach effort.
Comprehensive Planning Manager Sara Dechter provided additional context on the High Occupancy Housing measure, noting its connection to the 45-foot height requirement. She mentioned that Sunnyside has more potential for development within the zone.
Mr. Symer added that once the new NCC zone is created, property owners can rezone independently without the city's involvement, giving them the option to initiate rezoning themselves.
Tyler Denham addressed Council in opposition of the plan. He stated that he would sue under Prop 207 if his property is downzoned.
Councilmember Aslan asked Mr. Denham to clarify if he was in Sunnyside or Southside and he confirmed the Southside. Councilmember Aslan asked Ms. Dechter about the adopted plan on the Southside. Ms. Dechter confirmed the current Southside plan includes downzoning.
Sat Best addressed Council and stated that the plan is a step in the right direction for view sheds. He is in support of the plan.
Michele James with Friends of Flagstaff’s Future stated that they support the plan.
Marie Jones stated that she supports the plan.
Councilmember Shimoni expressed a desire to consult with the legal team before discussing the issue further.
Mayor Deasy asked if Council needed to direct staff to proceed with public outreach. Mr. Symer clarified that the process involves two steps: adoption and then public outreach in each neighborhood. Creating the zone allows property owners to rezone independently, but the zoning must first be established.
Councilmember Aslan inquired about the waiver process for property owners in the neighborhoods. City Attorney Solomon suggested discussing this in an executive session. Senior Assistant City Attorney Christina Rubalcava noted that while staff is focused on creating a zone, the zoning would not apply to any properties immediately, and Prop 207 would apply later if adopted.
Mayor Deasy called for an Executive Session on the matter at a later time.
Councilmember Shimoni expressed support for the direction and encouraged thinking creatively to engage with local community groups and restaurants.
Vice Mayor Daggett, Councilmembers Aslan, Sweet, and Salas all expressed support for moving forward, though Councilmember Salas raised concerns about outreach to specific neighborhoods and the potential for litigation.
Mr. Symer explained that there had been informal outreach with community organizations and property owners, with suggestions to avoid winter and fall for outreach efforts and to gather additional public comments as the process progresses.
A break was held from 7:51 p.m. through 8:00 p.m.
Slides included:
- Purpose of the Work Session
- Reason for the Proposed Zoning Code Text Amendment
- Maps
- Recap of Previous Work Sessions and Public Comments
- Proposed Process

Requests for Abandonment of Public Right-of-Way on Hoskins Ave. - FUTS and Parking Discussion
Real Estate Manager Bryce Doty and Transportation Planner Martin Ince presented to Mayor and Council to inform about the abandonment process and to discuss conditions on Hoskins Avenue.
Slides included:
Community Development Director Dan Folke clarified that this discussion was informational, as there had not been a formal process for these requests before. Previously, they went to a staff committee, but now a formal application process will be created. Requests will go to the Planning and Zoning Commission and then City Council.
Councilmember Aslan inquired whether a solution could be found to maintain the FUTS (Flagstaff Urban Trail System) path while offering the ROW vacations. Mr. Folke preferred to plan the facilities first and then consider vacating the ROW. Mr. Ince agreed, emphasizing the importance of maintaining connectivity with FUTS and balancing choices like on-street parking and a cycle track. He supported the ROW abandonments but stressed that future planning should take precedence.
Councilmember Aslan shared his observations from a site tour, noting a brick wall and telephone poles that impede the ROW. He believed that the ROW seemed unnecessary to keep and supported moving forward with all three requests.
Mayor Deasy asked if the ROW vacation process was open only to the requesters, to which Mr. Folke confirmed that the City Council sets the sales price and the requester has the first right of refusal.
A formal request will be presented at the next meeting.
