The Concho Community Plan is an expression of how the residents of our community wish to see our community grow, develop and prosper. The entire region is experiencing rapid growth. Rather than allow this growth to be haphazard or of low quality, the Concho Community Plan sets forth guidelines to assist in planning for orderly growth that meets its needs and standards. The Concho Community Plan addresses the current and future elements that the community indicated were the most pressing. It also utilizes the various established deed restrictions and proposes to base the zoning districts on them, thereby eliminating many conflicts and enhancing enforcement.

Land Use and Traffic Congestion is an investigation into the links among land use, travel behavior, and traffic congestion. Researchers focused on four transportation corridors in the Phoenix area: three older neighborhoods with relatively mixed, higher density land use, and one suburban area with lower density but high traffic volumes. The analysis suggested that the higher density corridors exhibited less congestion due to the greater mix of uses, shorter trip lengths, more travel by transit and non-motorized modes, and the presence of a secondary street grid system.

This Light Rail Transit corridor market analysis was done to identify and evaluate market-based development opportunities around planned light rail transit stations in the cities of Phoenix, Tempe, and Mesa.This report presents the findings and recommendations for each of the 12 highest-rated opportunity sites along the LRT corridor. This final document is intended to inform discussions among Valley Metro Rail, the participating cities, and prospective developers about the types of uses that could be developed on each of those sites, and how that development should be pursued and promoted.
