So uh item Roman number four, public appearances.

6:59

Commissioner Whitman got up and uh said he wanted to discuss with it something with his peers, but it doesn't say what it was.

7:07

So I'm thinking that just kind of piques a person's interest about what did he talk about.

7:13

So either I would think we should say what he discussed or else remove that item.

7:19

Uh then on item six, roaming number six.

7:24

The um this was the general was it the general plan amendment, a major major general plan amendment.

7:32

I I thought that was we were just we just heard that, but we didn't because down at that towards the bottom there it says that we uh uh seconded the motion to approve the major general plan amendment, but I don't think we could do that at that particular meeting.

7:48

We're doing that maybe tonight, I don't know.

7:51

But um paragraph eight, it says it's a non-action.

7:57

Okay, so then why would we approve it if it's non-action?

8:03

Chair Chair of the Commission of the question at hand, and I looked at that as well.

Summary of Proceedings

Eloy Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting - December 17, 2025

This meeting of the Eloy Planning & Zoning Commission was held on December 17, 2025, at 5:15 PM. The commission considered consent agenda items, a major general plan amendment and rezoning, and received informational updates on city projects and recent council actions. Commissioner Lopez was excused. All votes were unanimous.

Consent Calendar

  • Case No. PP2025-001: Sunshine Industrial Park – A request by Rose Law Group, PC, on behalf of WSI Development Sub, LP, et al., for a 26-lot subdivision on approximately 148.36 acres with Light Industrial (I-1) zoning. The commission noted a correction: the adjacent property described as "executive health care" should be "exceptional care."
  • Case No. RZPAD2025-003: AZ Skydive – A request by Jessica Sarkissian, of Upfront Planning & Entitlements, LLC, on behalf of LLSS, LLC, et al., to rezone approximately 76 acres from Light Industrial (I-1) and General Industrial (I-2) to Light Industrial (I-1) with a Planned Area Development (PAD) overlay. The commission noted the correct name is "Skydive Arizona" and that the staff report omitted the fiscal impact statement (staff stated no fiscal impact is anticipated).
  • The consent agenda was approved unanimously with those corrections.

Public Comments & Testimony

  • No members of the public spoke on non-agenda items.
  • During the public hearing for the Eloy 310 item, Julie Vermillion of Coe & Van Loo Consultants presented the proposal on behalf of TES Farms. No opposition was voiced from the public. Commissioner Crawford raised concerns about traffic congestion on the two-lane bridge over I-10 at Sunland Gin Road, noting it is already at capacity. Staff and the mayor responded that a study of the interchange has been petitioned to ADOT through the Sun Corridor.

Discussion Items

  • General Plan Update – Mapping the Future Outreach Summary – This item was continued to the next Planning & Zoning Commission meeting due to scheduling conflicts.
  • Case No. GPA2024-005 and RZ2024-004: Eloy 310 – A request for a major General Plan Amendment on approximately 310 acres (from Community Commercial and Light Industrial to Mixed-Use) and a rezoning from Single-Family Residential (R1-12) to Light Industrial (I-1) and Multiple Family Residential (R-3). The site is located approximately 1,237 feet east of the northeast corner of North Sunland Gin Road and West Shedd Road. The applicant stated the existing patchwork of designations would be better served by a cohesive mixed-use designation, and that the proposed zoning would provide a transition to adjacent residential and industrial uses. Preliminary sewer and water layouts were presented. The commission discussed the need for road improvements, particularly Shedd Road, and the anticipated development impact fees (approximately $2 million for public safety, $3 million for parks, and $3.5 million for roadway improvements). The motion to approve with staff conditions passed unanimously.

Key Outcomes

  • Approved the minutes of the November 19, 2025, meeting as amended, clarifying that the public appearance discussion by Commissioner Whitman was recorded, that no action was taken on the general plan amendment discussed at that meeting, and that the clubhouse drive item was approved with staff conditions.
  • Approved the consent agenda (Sunshine Industrial Park subdivision and AZ Skydive rezoning) unanimously.
  • Continued the General Plan Update outreach summary to the next meeting.
  • Recommended approval of the Eloy 310 major General Plan Amendment and rezoning to the Eloy City Council, with staff conditions.
  • Informational updates included: a stop-work order on JW Waters improvements north of Roberson Ranch (plans submitted for permits); a ribbon-cutting for Love's Travel Stop on Toltec Road scheduled for December 18, 2025; council denial of the Poblano Solar CUP (CUP2025-006) for 80 acres; council approval of a one-year extension for Vista di Pocasio (PP2022-009E2) with a hard stop; and the start of construction on the Kids Holar Project (660-acre, $200 million facility).
  • Meeting adjourned.
