Brent Billingsley outlined a strategic development vision during a December 3, 2025, council presentation. Earlier in the same meeting, he was appointed as San Tan Valley’s first town manager. He explained how existing planning documents will guide growth. His focus centered on the San Tan Valley Urban Core, a 3,239-acre project that officials call the most important property for the town’s financial future.
The presentation combined material from the 2018 Special Area Plan with material prepared for this year’s urban core approvals—a comprehensive plan amendment and rezoning. Together, these documents give San Tan Valley a foundation for land use decisions while it develops its own general plan.
