The line of parked cars — more than a quarter mile in length — was a quick indicator as to the interest in a proposed development off State Route 89A between Sedona and Cottonwood.
An estimated 150 people turned out to Spring Creek Ranch on Friday, Dec. 6, despite cold, gloomy weather to hear a presentation by owner Eric Borowsky and his daughter, Lisa. The meeting was supposed to last 90 minutes but went for more than three hours as residents from around the Verde Valley came to hear the presentation, ask questions and express their thoughts and concerns.
The Borowskys are seeking to change the zoning of their 246 acres from Residential Rural to Planned Development. Joining them in this endeavor are members of the Ryerson family, who have owned 36 acres of adjoining land since the early 1960s. Eric Borowsky purchased his land 15 years ago.
