Residents of Heritage District detail transformation of community
by Katie Sawyer | Maricopa Monitor
The Heritage District in Maricopa has undergone a transformation in the last few years. From new roads and street lights to fresh paint and concrete, the city has worked with the community to help address repairs and improve the living spaces of residents.
The city of Maricopa first proposed a plan in 2009 to help support community members in addressing repairs and improvements that would benefit the residents directly. In the last couple years, that plan has taken shape, especially in the Maricopa Station area.
Maricopa Station is a diamond-shaped parcel of land in the heart of the city, to the east of the State Route 347 overpass. The city formed a Heritage District Advisory Committee to help with ideas and planning, and enlisted the help of neighbors and residents to ensure community feedback.
