Maricopa’s skyline might soon be rising.
The Maricopa Planning & Zoning Commission has advanced a plan for the city’s largest apartment development – and its tallest buildings.
The commission approved a change in the city’s General Plan future land use map and a zoning change for the proposed Home at Maricopa development just east of Walmart.
The community of six apartment buildings would have a density of 28.5 dwelling units per acre. At that high density, the development would be home to 721 units, dwarfing any of the city’s other approved apartment projects, and be home to as many as 2,300 residents.
Some of the buildings would stretch five stories and up to 70 feet in height.
