(Via City of Peoria)

A proposal to rezone a project named Tierra, projected to bring 76 single-family homes on 18.4 acres to the southwest corner of Thunderbird Road and 67th Avenue, has been continued to the Aug. 23 city council meeting, per council approval June 7.
In a rare turn of events, the Peoria Planning and Zoning commission denied the rezoning at it’s May 12 meeting.
The proposal was to down-zone the property from commercial to residential, which some on the commission opposed because of the loss of revenue to the city.
The proposed density for the project is 4.13 dwelling units per acre, with a typical lot size of 4,860 square feet, according to a staff report.
