Dear Sahuaro District Residents,
The City Council has proactively set in place policy to develop land along the Loop 303. It is the next area of major development. City staff are able to move quickly as the developers request annexation, allowing the City to be competitive in the open market. This approach allows for smart growth where the City can be responsive and ahead of the curve of the competition. The biggest benefit these developments will bring will be employment opportunities for our residents and tax revenues.
Barclay for example, is a 1.2 million square foot high tech manufacturing facility that will completely change the landscape along Glendale
Avenue near the 303 and will be the catalyst for more commercial opportunities.
Moss Dairy is another 76 acres that brings even more job opportunities including much needed office space. The City Council took action on these properties this week and approved pre-annexation development agreements (PADA).
These annexations also give the City the ability to determine best and highest use and to ensure the proper infrastructure is in place such as road, curb and gutter, etc.
We received information that thousands of additional acres of land are being considered for development. Most of this land is within the Luke Corridor and has restrictions on residential building, thus may become the commercial and industrial mega zone in the West Valley. This is great news for residents because of the opportunities to capture much needed revenue
sources for our existing infrastructure at minimal short-term and long-term costs.
Have a nice weekend!
