Avondale approves new Dutch Bros. location

During Avondale’s City Council meeting on July 5, council unanimously voted to approve a new Dutch Bros. location. The development plan calls for the proposed 1,093-square-foot drive-thru coffee shop to be built on 1.08 acres at the southwest corner of Dale Earnhardt Drive and 114th Avenue in the BLVD Park Avenue District. “I’m so glad to see that this business is coming to Avondale,” Coun-

cilmember Bryan Kilgore said during the city council meeting. “Good job to everybody involved. Getting this thing coming to our city is really good to see.”

Only one standalone drive-thru use is permitted within the BLVD’s Park Avenue District; however, the approved Dutch Bros. will exhaust this allowance.

The drive-thru will feature two lanes that will wrap around the north, west and south sides of the coffee shop building, with room for up to 27 vehicles.

A traffi c impact analysis was completed, which found that the proposed access and queuing to function adequate with no vehicle backup anticipated outside of the designated drive-thru lanes.

The location will also feature an 850-square-foot covered patio located north of the proposed building. A restroom will also be on-site for customers. The building itself will be accessible only to Dutch Bros. employees.

Similar to other Dutch Bros. locations across the Valley, there will be a pickup window where customers can place their orders. The window will be on the north side of the building, adjacent to the patio area.

Under a 75-foot-long pedestrian shade canopy will be bench seating and decorative pavement. A metal shade will be provided along the project’s 114th Avenue frontage, and a similarly styled 50-foot-long drive-thru canopy is provided along the site’s Avondale Boulevard frontage.

Twenty-fi ve on-site parking spaces will be on the east and south sides of the proposed coffee shop building. Existing on-street angled parking spaces on 114th Avenue will also be available in the event that all on-site parking spaces are in use.

Councilmember Tina Conde noted in the meeting that the coffee shop will attract people to the city, allowing them to experience other places in Avondale.

“I think Dutch Bros. is going to be a great anchor there in the boulevard to bring people in, to kind of bring awareness of what’s happening over there,” she said.

Libertas Real Estate announced its new addition of its commercial real estate division, PMD Realty Group at Libertas.

The company has already made a name for itself in the market throughout the greater Phoenix area, particularly in the West Valley, since its inception.

PMD Realty brings to the Valley more than 24 years of combined experience in the regions of greater south Florida, Washington state and Arizona.

“With the recent and anticipated growth of the West Valley, now is the time to create further opportunity for expansion and really carve out a market segment that is really just being tapped into,” said Paul Davis, principal and chairperson. “We’re thrilled to expand into this sector with such a solid source of experience that will ultimately shape the commercial market and its surrounding neighborhoods in the coming years.”

Much like the Libertas residential division, PMD Realty Group at Libertas prides itself on its unique business approach that sets itself apart from others in the industry. To the fi rm, it’s not about “the how,” it’s about “the why.” This simple focus shift creates unparalleled success for its clients and business partners.

PMD Realty Group at Libertas intends to celebrate its launch with an offi cial grand opening, with more details on that to come. For more information, visit pmdrealtygroup.com.

Question from reader

Question: What is going on at the northeast corner of Van Buren and Verrado Way in Buckeye? There is a drill system in place for about three weeks, but I never see any humans around. Answer: Buckeye Economic Development Director David Roderique kept the answer short and sweet. “That is simply a new water well being drilled; no development is planned for that corner yet,” he said.
