Via RVi Planning and Landscape Architecture and Pinal County
By Roland Murphy | AZBEX
The Arizona State Land Department has submitted a request to Pinal County to rezone 389 acres of Arizona State Trust land east of Hunt Highway and south of Gantzel and Judd roads in San Tan Valley.
ASLD wants to change the general rural zoning currently in place to three base zoning districts with a planned area development overlay.
Under the requested changes for North Copper Basin, 256.1 acres would be zoned for single-family residential, 68.1 acres for mixed residential and 64.8 acres for commercial/office/residential. The entire site would be united under the PAD overlay.
According to the submitted site description, “The eastern 160 acres have been used for agricultural purposes. Minor improvements such as concrete irrigation ditches, rip rap, and dirt roads have been made on the Site; however, no buildings have been constructed on it. At the western corner of the site, near the northeast corner of Hunt Highway and Gantzel Road, a 125-foot-wide 230kv electric easement, and a 40-foot-wide 69kv electric easement cross the site. The site is relatively undeveloped and does not appear to have any apparent or significant topographic or cultural features located within it.”
