The City of Maricopa is progressing with its plans to stimulate the local economy by proposing the sale of a parcel of city-owned land, with the intention of developing the Maricopa Business Park.

The public will be able to voice their opinions and learn more about the proposed sale at a public hearing slated for October 1. The hearing, which will take place at 6:00 p.m. in the City Hall Council Chambers, is an opportunity for residents to engage with the City Council over the future use of the land located at the Southwest corner of Maricopa-Casa Grande Hwy. and White and Parker Rd. A notice of the upcoming hearing was published on the city's official website, as stated in a notice released by the City of Maricopa.
Details provided about the parcel, identified with Assessor Parcel Number: 510-49-002B, indicated the city's plans to repurpose the land to support infrastructural and community development. This strategic sale aligns with Maricopa's goals to enhance the region's economic landscape and provide improved business and employment prospects for its residents.
Maricopa residents are encouraged to participate actively in the decision-making process. Feedback can be given during the public hearing, or for those unable to attend, comments can be submitted via email to City Clerk Vanessa Bueras at [email protected].
