         This  Amendment  No. 1 to Schedule 13D  ("Amendment  No.1")  amends and

supplements  the  Schedule  13D filed on August  17,  2000 (the  "Schedule")  by

Pacific Partners,  LLC ("Pacific  Partners" or the "Stockholder") and William S.

Levine (the  "Manager" and  collectively  with the  Stockholder,  the "Reporting

Persons"),  with respect to the Common Stock, $.001 par value (the "Stock"),  of

Del  Webb  Corporation  (the  "Company").  All  capitalized  terms  used in this

Amendment No. 1 and not otherwise  defined herein have the meanings  ascribed to

such terms in the Schedule.

Item 3.           Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

         Item 3 is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

         The aggregate  amount of funds required by the  Stockholder to purchase

the  1,002,186  shares of the Stock owned by it was  $15,389,732,  including any

brokerage  commissions and Stock  contributed by a Member.  Except for shares of

Stock purchased  pursuant to the Stockholder's  margin account referenced below,

all funds used to purchase the Stock were obtained  from the working  capital of

the  Stockholder.   The  Stockholder  has  borrowed  a  total  of  approximately

$2,398,867.23  to  purchase shares of the Stock pursuant to margin  arrangements

established in Stockholder's  Customer  Agreement with Spear, Leeds & Kellogg (a

copy of which is filed as Exhibit 99.1).

Item 4.           Purpose of Transaction.

         Item 4 is amended to add the information  under the captions  "Director

Nominations,"  "Stockholder  Inspection Demand" and  "Hart-Scott-Rodino  Filing"

below and to read in its entirety as follows:

         The Stockholder purchased shares of the Stock because it had determined

that  the  Stock  may  present  significant  opportunities  for  realization  of

increased  shareholder value.  Representatives of the Stockholder have read with

interest  publicly  available  information  regarding the Company  including the

various reports filed by the Company pursuant to the Securities  Exchange Act of

1934.  Although the Company is the  recognized  brand name and the leader in the

active  adult  housing  business,  the  Reporting  Persons do not  believe  that

shareholder value has been maximized.  The Reporting Persons have noted that the

Company's  balance sheet is highly  leveraged.  Impending  debt  maturities  and

<PAGE>

CUSIP NO.  947423 109                                       Page 5 of 15 Pages

certain restrictive covenants contained in the Company's instruments relating to

its indebtedness may present liquidity issues and limit the Company's financial

flexibility.  The Reporting  Persons believe that this, in turn, is not allowing

the Company to take  advantage  of both  present and future  opportunities.  The

Reporting  Persons  are also  concerned  that the  percentage  of the issued and

outstanding Stock beneficially owned by the Company's  directors and officers is

inappropriately low.

         Representatives  of the  Reporting  Persons  will  seek  to  meet  with

management  of the Company to obtain  management's  explanation  of the steps it

intends to take to maximize  the value of the Stock and  address  any  impending

liquidity issues and delever the Company's  balance sheet. The Reporting Persons

may also evaluate and discuss with management the terms upon which a significant

strategic equity  investment could be made in the Company to address any pending

liquidity issues and to delever the Company's balance sheet.  Representatives of

the Stockholder may also meet with  representatives  of potential  purchasers of

the Company to determine if they are  interested in acquiring the Company and to

compare possible  acquisition prices with the Reporting  Persons'  assessment of

the market values  realizable from management's  plans.  Based on the outcome of

any such  discussions  and further  assessment  by the  Reporting  Persons,  the

Reporting Persons may seek representation on the Company's Board of Directors at

its  2000  Annual  Meeting  of   Stockholders  or  may  suggest  and/or  sponsor

alternative candidates for election as directors.

         Depending  upon general  market and economic  conditions  affecting the

Company  and the  Stock  and its  view of the  prospects  for the  Company,  the

Stockholder  may purchase  additional  shares of the Stock or sell shares of the

Stock from time to time in open market and/or private transactions.

         Director Nominations.  On August 17, 2000, Pacific Partners delivered a

letter to LeRoy C. Hanneman,  Jr.  informing Mr.  Hanneman of Pacific  Partners'

ownership of approximately 5.32% of the Company's Stock. In that letter, Pacific

Partners  requested a meeting with Mr. Hanneman to discuss certain issues raised

in the letter,  including  steps  management  of the Company  intends to take to

maximize the value of the Stock and address any impending  liquidity  issues and

delever the  Company's  balance  sheet.  On August 25,  2000,  Pacific  Partners

<PAGE>

CUSIP NO.  947423 109                                       Page 6 of 15 Pages

received a reply  from Mr.  Hanneman  suggesting  three  possible  dates for the

requested meeting.  The earliest date proposed by Mr. Hanneman for the requested

meeting was September 11, 2000.

         The Company's  Amended and Restated Bylaws provide  generally that if a

stockholder  intends  to  propose  certain  matters  for  consideration  at  the

Company's Annual Meeting of  Stockholders,  including the nomination of director

candidates,  the  stockholder  must  submit to the Company, in  writing, certain

detailed  information regarding the actions or nominations  being proposed.  The

information  that  stockholders  must give to the Company must also be submitted

within a narrowly defined "window" of not less than 60 and not more than 90 days

prior to the date of the  meeting at which  such  matters  would be  considered.

Based on publicly available  information  reviewed by the Reporting Persons,  in

the case of the Company's 2000 Annual Meeting of Stockholders,  the "window" for

such notices  opened on August 4, 2000 and will close on  September 4, 2000.  In

light of the Company's  unwillingness,  as indicated by the Company's August 25,

2000 letter  referenced  above,  to engage in a  substantive  dialogue  with the

Company prior to the closing of this 30 day period in which notice must be given

and the failure by the Company to  volunteer  any relief from such  deadlines to

accommodate Mr. Hanneman's  schedule,  the Reporting Persons  determined to take

the action  described  in this  Amendment  No.1.  The failure to take the action

described  below at this time would,  under the Company's  Bylaws,  preclude the

Reporting  Persons  from being able to nominate  candidates  for election to the

Company's Board of Directors until the 2001 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

         On  August  31,  2000,  in  accordance   with   information   and  time

requirements  set forth in Article 2,  Section  2.8 of the Bylaws of the Company

(which the Stockholder  reserves the right to challenge),  the Reporting Persons

delivered to the Secretary of the Company a letter which provides written notice

of its intent to nominate  William S.  Levine,  Arturo R.  Moreno,  and Brian J.

O'Connor (the "Nominees") as candidates for election as directors of the Company

at the Company's 2000 Annual Meeting of  Stockholders.  A copy of the nomination

letter is attached as Exhibit 99.5 hereto.  In the event the Company declines to

accept  such  nominations,  the  Reporting  Persons may elect to prepare a proxy

statement  complying with the requirements of Schedule 14A as promulgated by the
<PAGE>

CUSIP NO.  947423 109                                       Page 7 of 15 Pages

Securities and Exchange  Commission  containing  information  called for therein

with respect to, among other things, the identity and background of the Nominees

and  the  Reporting  Persons'  and the  Nominees'  beneficial  ownership  of the

securities of the Company in connection  with a solicitation  of proxies for the

2000 Annual Meeting of Stockholders but will only conduct such solicitation when

and  as  permitted  by  applicable  law.  To  assist  in  any  potential  future

solicitation  of the proxies the  Stockholder has retained D.F. King & Co., Inc.

as its proxy  solicitor.  This  filing is not  intended  to  solicit  proxies in

connection with the 2000 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

         Stockholder  Inspection  Demand.  On August  31,  2000,  the  Reporting

Persons also delivered to the Company a stockholder  inspection  demand pursuant

to Section 220 of the General  Corporation Law of Delaware,  for examination and

copying of the Company's list of stockholders  and certain  related  stockholder

records including, without limitation, a list of non-objecting beneficial owners

("NOBO list") to facilitate the ability of the Reporting  Persons to communicate

with fellow stockholders.  A copy of the stockholder inspection demand letter is

attached as Exhibit 99.6 hereto.

           Hart-Scott-Rodino Filing. In connection with the foregoing, on August

31, 2000, Pacific Partners also filed a Notification and Report Form for Certain

Mergers   and   Acquisitions    with   the   Federal   Trade   Commission   (the

"Hart-Scott-Rodino  Filing"). This Hart-Scott-Rodino filing is required in order

for Pacific  Partners  to acquire Stock valued at more than $15.0  million under

the rules related to the filing.  In the filing, Pacific Partners indicated that

it presently intends to acquire from time to time  additional shares  of Stock,

which, based on current market prices, would cause Pacific Partners' total

holdings to exceed the $15.0 million  threshold.  The filing also discloses that

Pacific  Partners  intends to acquire at least 50,000 additional shares of Stock

but less than 15% of the total issued and outstanding shares of Stock.

         Except as set forth herein, the Reporting Persons have no present plans

or  proposals  which  relate to or would  result in any of the  action or events

enumerated in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

Item 5.           Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

           Item 5 is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

           (a)    The  aggregate  number  and  percentage  of  shares  of  Stock

                  beneficially  owned by the  Stockholder  is 1,002,186  (5.49%)

                  (based on  information  included in the Form 10-Q filed by the

                  Company for the quarter  ended March 31, 2000  reporting  that

                  18,326,955  shares of Stock were  outstanding  as of April 30,

                  2000). To the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, none of

                  the other persons named in response to Item 2 of the Schedule

                  13D filed August 17, 2000 owns any shares of the Stock (other

                  than shares of the Stock owned by the Stockholder of which one

                  or more of such other persons may be deemed to have beneficial

                  ownership pursuant to Rule 13d-3).

           (b)    The Reporting  Persons have shared power to vote or direct the

                  vote and, subject to the terms of the margin  arrangement,  to

                  dispose or direct the  disposition  of the shares of the Stock

                  beneficially owned by the Stockholder.

           (c)    Except as set forth on Schedule 2 hereto,  no  transactions in

                  shares of the Stock were  effected  during the past 60 days by

                  the Reporting Persons, or, to the best of the knowledge of the

                  Reporting  Persons,  by any  of the  other  persons  named  in

                  response to Item 2 of the Schedule 13D filed August 17, 2000.

           (d) - (e)       Not applicable.
