Commercial development continues to ramp up in Gilbert — bringing the potential for hundreds of new jobs — as plans for a seventh auto dealership in the Santan Motorplex, a major office complex and a new industrial building were unveiled to the Design Review Board this month.
Brown & Brown Chevrolet is looking to become the Gilbert auto mall’s newest addition with a 15-acre dealership on the southwestern corner of Val Vista Drive and Pecos Road, next to Henry Brown Buick-GMC, according to plans submitted to the town.
Santan Motorplex welcomed its first dealership in 2007 — just before the start of the Great Recession — and has seen renewed demand for development in recent years.
