3 issues in development with high priority
CenCore Project
CenCore bought the old Plunder building and may add a 150,000-square-foot manufacturing plant if it wins a military contract, bringing roughly 100 relocating employees plus new hires — and demand for housing and restaurants.
Haskell Annexation for single-family development
About 6.27 acres near 1300 East and Salem Canal Road could join the city, paving the way for low-density single-family homes. The deal includes a trail corridor that would connect to Salem Canal Road trails. The City Council holds the public hearing and final say.
D-S Meat Processing subdivision homes on Canyon Road
The longtime meat plant is being forced out by Bureau of Reclamation canal right-of-way enforcement, and the city rezoned its 4 acres for detached single-family homes — contingent on a development agreement with garage and design standards. Neighbors worry about traffic, parking, and smaller lots.
