COOLIDGE — The Coolidge Planning and Zoning Commission earlier this month recommended by a 3-1 vote approval of an amended application that would bring 1,123 manufactured homes to the community.
The Coolidge City Council will make the final decision.
The subdivision, to be called Hawk Hollow, would be owned and operated by Sun Communities on 319 acres at the southeast corner of Skousen and Martin roads.
The commission was told that Sun Communities, the largest manufactured home provider in the country, already has two such properties in Casa Grande, including the Palm Creek and Spanish Trails communities.
The lots would be 55 by 110 feet with 36-foot setbacks and offer a main feature of affordability.
Seven to eight years ago Sun executives decided to make housing more affordable, and to date, the company has 300 communities with more than 100,000 homes and a 96% occupancy rate.
