The City of Chandler developed the South Arizona Avenue Entry Corridor Study in 2006, setting forth a vision for the development of the corridor between Dr. A.J. Chandler Park and the new SanTan Freeway, ¾ mile to the south. Between downtown and the freeway is the corridor that the City intends to see redeveloped, with mixed residential and commercial uses to create a dynamic new “front door” for Chandler. The purpose of these design guidelines is to guide zoning requests within the South Arizona Avenue Corridor to achieve the objectives of the Chandler General Plan. The overall goal of these objectives is to implement the vision for South Arizona Avenue. The guidelines address the major design aspects of new office, retail and residential buildings in the corridor. Design Guidelines are not building or streetscape designs; they provide design direction so that each project’s architectural design will reinforce the City’s strategic intentions as this important area of the city responds to its new role as Chandler’s “front door.” These guidelines also identify streetscape design principles for South Arizona Avenue with the objective of coordinating public and private design in the Corridor.

The Arizona State Board for Charter Schools was established in 1994 to authorize and oversee the operations of charter schools. The Board has increased charter schools’ accountability but can further enhance its oversight by continuing to implement its academic performance intervention policy, taking action to address charter holders with poor financial performance, assessing whether it should require charter holders to submit corrective action plans that address a broader range of internal control weaknesses or deficiencies, and establishing an operational framework. Additionally, although the Board provides information about charter schools on its Web site, it can do more to provide comparative information and guidance to better explain academic performance accountability.

In fiscal year 2011, Kingman Unified School District’s student achievement was similar to peer district averages, and it operated efficiently with lower costs than peer districts’, on average. The District operated its administration with lower per pupil costs because it employed fewer administrative staff per pupil than peer districts, on average. In addition, the District’s plant operations cost per square foot and food service cost per meal were lower than peer districts’ averages. The District’s transportation program cost per pupil was higher than the peer districts’ average, but the program was efficient, with lower per mile costs. However, the District should improve some of its administrative practices. In particular, the District should strengthen controls over its cash handling, culinary arts program, and computer network and systems.

The Arizona State Board of Funeral Directors and Embalmers regulates individuals and facilities involved in funeral directing, embalming, and cremation. The Board should strengthen its licensing process by ensuring that application forms are consistent with all of its administrative rules. The Board should also apply late fees for untimely renewals, ensure that its renewal application forms are consistent with rules, and either audit continuing education or require documentation of it with the renewal application. In addition, the Board needs to improve its inspection process by inspecting facilities at least once every 5 years, as required by statute, and by better documenting inspection results and following up on deficiencies. Finally, the Board adequately investigated and resolved complaints in a timely manner, but should implement procedures for providing accurate and complete public information about those it regulates.
