Queen Creek Independent
Voters approved the Queen Creek General Plan update Tuesday, May 15, with 84 percent voting in favor and 16 percent opposing.
The General Plan serves as the town’s road map to guide development, manage growth and conserve natural resources, a press release states. State law requires every jurisdiction in Arizona with more than 2,500 residents to have a General Plan, and to update the plan every 10 years.
“The goal with this update was to make a plan that was easier to use and easier for the general public to understand,” Development Services Director Chris Anaradian said in a prepared statement.
