On Tuesday, the main agenda item is a public hearing to review and comment on the scope of the draft environmental impact report for the 47.5-acre site known as the Airport Redevelopment Project.

The site includes the city’s former Pearce Field airport. It’s bounded by 18th Avenue extension and Victor Street to the north, State Route 53 to the east, and Old Highway 53 to the south and west.

The city staff report said the project would develop the site with healthcare facilities, multifamily housing, commercial retail, restaurants, a park, a plaza, pedestrian routes, and a cross-over to the future transit center at State Road 53.

“The project would also include infrastructure improvements, including roads, utilities, storm water management, parking lots, streetlights, landscaping, bus shelters/pullouts, sidewalks, bicycle lanes, and multi-modal paths. Below is a summary of the potential uses and associated square footages,” the report said.

The city reported that the project will include up to 250 multifamily housing units, up to 140,000 square feet of hospital/medical offices, up to 400,000 square feet for general retail and commercial space, 1,928 parking spots and 3.83 acres of open space.
