Divisions
The Community Development Department is comprised of 4 divisions:
At a recent retreat, the Eloy City Council stated their goal to complete a master plan for the areas surrounding the Eloy Municipal Airport. City staff is very excited about working on this plan and the opportunity to build on the success of Skydive Arizona and other existing businesses.
When planning for an airport, there is differentiation between the airport itself, or the area inside the fence, and the area outside the fence. The term airpark is often used by municipalities to describe the area surrounding an airport, located outside of the fence. Master plans for airports are subject to rigorous standards by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and are prepared by consultants that focus solely on airports. Airpark master plans are typically focused on land use, circulation, public facilities and economic development and do not need to meet the same FAA standards.
Community Development staff is working through the planning process for the Eloy Airpark, which has been undertaken by City staff. We expect to work closely with the Municipal Airport Advisory Board to develop recommendations to present to the Planning and Zoning Commission and the City Council.
