After two months of Planning and Zoning meetings, the Deep Well Ranch development proposal is expected to culminate Tuesday, Nov. 28, with a vote by the Prescott City Council.
The issue and its debate have gone in many directions.
Deep Well Ranch, if approved by the city, is an 1,800-acre subdivision that is generally north of Pioneer Parkway and west of Highway 89. The proposal itself has gone through many changes — especially the number of houses. It has varied from the original request of 10,500, to the 4,500 recommended by a 4-3 split P&Z, to the recently re-negotiated 8,000.
