The Buckeye Planning and Zoning Commission has recommended approval of a rezoning and General Plan amendment for a proposed industrial site at the SEC of Verrado Way and Broadway Road.
The requests for the Verrado 310 site covered rezoning nearly 316.5 acres from “General Commerce (GC) (208.16-acres), Planned Community (PC) (102.97- acres) and General Commercial (C-3) (5.34-acres)” to Light Industrial for a future employment center and implementing a minor General Plan amendment to change the land use of 105.68 acres on the east side of the property from Master Planned Community to Employment.
According to the narrative submitted with the request, “With respect to future or anticipated land uses in the immediate surrounding area, the Property is part of an approximately 2,500-acre development area controlled by the Owner that is envisioned to be developed as a major employment center with an anticipated mix of advanced manufacturing, distribution, data center, battery storage, office, industrial, ancillary facilities and/or residential.”
No specific project is currently associated with the requests. According to the narrative, “Approval of this request will support the development of the Project— a major employment center with an anticipated mix of advanced manufacturing, distribution, data center, battery storage, office, industrial and/or ancillary facilities, referred to as Verrado 310. Further investigation of certain details related to the future development of the Project, including, but not limited to, utilities, roadway improvements, impacts to City services and proposed development standards for the Project, will be undertaken at the time a specific development proposal is prepared for the Property.”
