CORE 3 - CAP Canal to SR74

At approximately 4,550 acres, Core 3 offers a diverse blend of residential, commercial, employment, and industrial land uses, with flexible mixed-use parcels throughout. This area must contend with a myriad of natural and man-made features including Waddell/CAP canals, Agua Fria River, regional power and natural gas corridors, substation, drainage areas and major transportation corridors. The features provide opportunities for land use transitions and connectivity throughout the area.

The plan encourages a mix of housing types, business parks, and industrial operations, strategically located near major highways and infrastructure. With its gateway location near Lake Pleasant, the area centered around the intersection of SR74 and Lake Pleasant Parkway offers the opportunity for a master-planned community.

This core is intended to be a catalyst for regional growth, innovation, and a sustainable mix of living and working with an eye towards capitalizing on the potential of Lake Pleasant.
