OPINION: Apache Junction is ready for development to the south
Apache Junction/Gold Canyon Independent
In light of recent reports regarding the open land south of Apache Junction, it is important to know that we are ready.
The East Valley Tribune recently published a story on the Superstition Vistas project south of the city. The project dates back many years and the newspaper reported that no movement is expected any time soon although regionally the discussion continues.
However, it mentioned that perhaps the first domino in the process of long-term development is the land immediately south of U.S. Highway 60, to be known as Lost Dutchman Heights, which lies within the city of Apache Junction. I am here to tell you that the city is ready to expand in this area responsibly.
