Mercado and Main Street Rezone (ZON 26-04 / ORD 26-16)
Description
Three parcels totaling about 0.90 acres were rezoned from county GR and CB-2 to Public Institutional so the owner can open a food truck court under the Maricopa Station overlay, with about 10 food trucks, electrical pedestals, and no overnight parking.
Impact summary
Could bring 5-8 food trucks to a lot near homes, with access only from West Stagecoach Lane — neighbors want answers on parking and noise before it moves forward.
