The New River Desert Hills Incorporation Committee announced it will be dropping commercial properties along Daisy Mountain Drive in south Anthem, and potentially other areas near the Carefree Highway, which were originally included in its preliminary map released on October 9.
The announcement comes a couple weeks after Anthem Community Council threatened litigation against the New River Desert Hills Incorporation Committee (NRDHIC) for including Circle K, CVS and Fry’s as well as other properties, which Anthem claims is in its master-planned community.
The Anthem Community Council (ACC) stated in a public response that it “respects the rights of our neighbors in New River and Desert Hills to explore incorporation and to ultimately incorporate, if that is the will of the residents,” but still demanded that NRDHIC remove all Anthem properties from the incorporation map.
