A developer has formally filed plans to bring Maricopa its first 7-Eleven convenience store and gas station one year after it was proposed.
Scottsdale-based De Rito Partners submitted a site plan Thursday to the city’s development services department for a 7-Eleven on the southeast corner of Honeycutt and White-and-Parker Roads. The company is seeking approval from the design review board to move the project forward.
The proposal calls for a 5,000-square-foot store and a large fuel canopy with 12 gas pumps on 1.6 acres of vacant land. That’s a larger plan than what the company submitted in 2024, when it proposed a smaller store with six pumps on the opposite corner of the intersection.
New plans show two full-access driveways, one from each road, along with new sidewalks, curbs and turn lanes. The design also includes bike racks, pedestrian walkways with decorative paving and more than 30 parking spaces separated from sidewalks by steel safety posts.
