TRU - DENIAL of this CPA application is recommended as a mixed use of residential and commercial is provided for in the County's area plans and the 90 acre commercial area being eliminated is frequently referenced in the narrative as an element of justification for the CPA. Converting a mixed use area to a single use should also be addressed through the use of a development master plan. Comments have been limited as this application is incorrect therefore, we submitted a 55 point list to Maricopa County. TRU comments link is listed above.
