Topics getting the most attention in Buckeye public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Teravalis master-planned community (53 sq mi, up to 130,000 homes)
The biggest decision of the night: a framework that could eventually make northwest Buckeye home to roughly 350,000 people over the next century. Roads, schools, water and parks are all planned through a layered PAD-village-development-unit system, but Commissioner Trupiano pressed hard on whether the area could become a giant cul-de-sac if I-11 and connecting arterials lag behind rooftops.
The Cascade Master Planned Community Development
Developers are seeking approval for Teravalis, a massive 53-square-mile master planned community in northwest Buckeye that could house up to 350,000 residents across 130,000 homes. The project includes extensive infrastructure planning, parks, wildlife corridors, and commercial areas.
