SOMERTON – The city has approved a nearly 10-acre residential subdivision on Somerton’s west side.
The Somerton City Council recently approved the final map for Somerton 1898, a 53-lot subdivision that Somerton Properties LLC plans to develop on the southeast corner of Tumbaga Loop and Main Street.
The site is located next to the future site of a planned apartment complex to be built by the same developers, Somerton Community Development Director Saul Albor said.
Elizabeth Carpenter, owner and realtor for the project, said she is working with David Loo to develop the subdivision of single-family homes.
“We’re excited to be able to have some more residences in Somerton to facilitate future growth in the city,” she said.
