Commission airs concerns about Cooley Station plan

By Cecilia Chan | Gilbert Sun News

A mixed-use development with 612 apartment units is being proposed at the northwest corner of Williams Field and Recker roads in the Cooley Station community.

Developer Kaplan Multifamily is seeking a minor General Plan amendment and rezone of the 13.26 acres to Village Center from General Commercial use.

“The site used to be zoned Village Center and due to market conditions they zoned it to general commercial,” senior planner Keith Newman said at the Nov. 2 Planning Commission study session. “Now they feel that it’s the time is right to zone it back to Village Center to comply with the original vision for that corner within the Cooley Station original master plan.”

The proposed District at Cooley Station calls for two, four-story apartment buildings, 15,000 square feet of free-standing retail-commercial shops, which could be one or two stories, and over 25,000 square feet of nonresidential space on the ground floor of the two multifamily buildings. The nonresidential space, which requires a conditional use permit, could include an urban grocer, retail shops, a public fitness center and work-from-home spaces.
