Rezonings sought for education center, apartments in Apache Junction
A change is being sought for 210 N. Ironwood Drive from a split zoning of recreational vehicle park and general commercial to general commercial./City of Apache Junction
A jobs-training education center is to be developed near the northwest corner of Ironwood and Apache Trail on property zoned for recreational vehicles and commercial uses. A rezoning application for it and one for multifamily housing near the northeast corner of Palo Verde and Apache Trail were approved recently by the Apache Junction Planning and Zoning Commission.
The commission on Aug. 11 voted unanimously to recommend City Council approve the city-initiated rezonings. In attendance were Chair Theresa Nesser, Vice Chair Peter Heck and Commissioners Shirley Ooley and Dave Hantzsche. Attending by phone was Commissioner Michael McGraw.
Both rezonings are slated to be heard by the Apache Junction City Council at a meeting in September. The council meets at 7 p.m. Sept. 1 and 15 in the Council Chambers, 300 E. Superstition Blvd.
