City of Buckeye Planning and Zoning Meeting

The City of Buckeye Planning and Zoning Commission met on November 11, 2026. It approved the October 27 meeting minutes and voted to recommend that City Council approve two rezoning requests. The first, case PLZZ-26-0019, covers approximately 138 acres south of Baseline Road and west of Turner Road, changing the zoning from Rural Residential to Light Industrial (I-1), subject to conditions A–J. No end user or site plan has been proposed; future subdivision and site-plan review will be required. Staff said the conditions were being finalized, with remaining edits described as non-substantive. The second request, for approximately 16.7 acres at the northeast corner of MC 85 and Rooks Road, would consolidate existing county zoning into Community Commercial (C-2), subject to conditions A–J and the property’s annexation becoming effective. Both recommendations passed without opposition; no public speakers addressed either hearing.

No contract awards, bids, purchasing decisions, or spending allocations were identified. The commission also received an update that the city has begun its General Plan update, due for adoption in 2028, with the consultant team that worked on the Downtown Specific Area Plan; staff invited two to three commissioners to participate. No procurement action or contract amount was discussed for that work.
