One of the areas along Main Street that has been prepared for parallel parking for the Maricopa Station development.

Here’s an update on economic activity in Maricopa in November:

Sonoran Creek Marketplace picked up several permits and adjusted a lot line on a portion of the property at 20300 N. John Wayne Parkway. Developers plan one commercial shell for the main retail building, valued at $1.3 million and referred to as the north shops, and another commercial shell for a multi-tenant building at 20320 N. John Wayne Parkway, valued at $914,000. Owners also received a commercial tenant improvement permit for a new Sprouts grocery store in the main building.

Bahama Buck’s opened Nov. 3 at 17470 N. Porter Road but not before an electric meter base was moved more than a foot north to clear the way for the drive-thru. The base was not on the original drawings for the store site and is serving off-site improvements.

The reviving Santa Rosa Crossing subdivision is putting in a 300-square-foot shade structure at 18265 N. Karsten Drive as part of its ongoing construction.

La Quinta, 44575 W. Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd., was approved for a commercial swimming pool, designed as 435 square feet and valued at $72,727.

Properties in Alterra South and Tortosa were zoned for group homes with capacity up to 10 residents.

Gehan Homes in The Lakes at Rancho El Dorado received a temporary use permit for a model home complex at 41085 W. Agave Road. Gehan is building homes in Homestead South at the northwest corner of Honeycutt Road at White and Parker Road.

The Maricopa Station portion of the Heritage District was zoned for an overlay that allows the City of Maricopa to develop the property into mixed use area of residential, commercial and civic applications.
