3 issues in development with high priority
Black Rock Coffee Conditional Use Permit and Neighbor Relations
A proposed coffee shop with a double drive-through near 95th and Peoria met pushback from the neighboring Hospice of the Valley over traffic and potential parking trespassing. While the coffee shop developers made major site plan changes to separate their driveways, a dispute over whether to build a separation wall divided the commission before it was ultimately approved without the wall requirement.
El Mirage and Forest Pleasant Place Residential Development
A 74-acre site was rezoned to allow 154 single-family attached homes with significant open space preservation after extensive neighborhood outreach.
Airport Development
Peoria just scrapped its controversial plan to build a new airport up north. If you live in the area, you can finally relax knowing you won't have low-flying planes buzzing your neighborhood.
