Residents and stakeholders planning to attend this week’s Gilbert Planning and Zoning Commission meeting should clear their schedules and plan for a long night.
Among other items in a packed agenda, the Commission will discuss five planned multifamily developments totaling more than 1,200 potential new units.
Morrison Ranch II
Going down the agenda, the first development under consideration is Morrison Ranch II– a 236-unit apartment proposal from P.B. Bell. The approximately 16.7-acre vacant site sits at the SEC of Elliot Road and Beebe Street.
According to the submitted narrative, the luxury community near the Loop 202 freeway, “will appeal to working professionals, employees, and young families that desires a unique, amenity rich, and pedestrian friendly lifestyle near major employment hubs and distinctly local restaurants and retail. This project provides a needed housing option that is currently underserved in this area.”
Planned amenities include a swimming pool and spa, a clubhouse with a business and lounge space, fitness center, children’s play area, dog park, a barbeque area and a recreational gathering space.
