The Land Management Board has scheduled a Public Hearing. You may or may not be a landowner in this area; however we are extending this special invitation to all Community Members and Landowners with ownership interest within a mile radius to attend this Public Hearing regarding the following:

The Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community is the applicant for the Salt River Fields at Talking Stick, also known as and referenced as the Spring Training Facility project. The project needs approval of three zoning actions to comply with the zoning ordinance. 1.) a rezoning from Agricultural ("A") to General Commercial ("C-3") for certain parcels, 2.) a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for the Spring Training Facility and adjacent entertainment and commercial amusement and recreation uses, and 3.) dimensional variances for signage.

The Spring Training Facility is located north of the northeast corner of Indian Bend Road and Pima Road, and west of the Loop 101 Pima Freeway. The Facility will include new circulation routes from adjacent streets, parking, practice fields, baseball clubhouses, a stadium, concessions, a lake and open plaza spaces. The project includes future development areas next to the freeway and also next to Pima Road that the Community will be able to develop for retail, hospitality and/or entertainment-oriented uses to complement and draw upon the spring training and other event activities within the Facility.

While the majority of land used by the Facility and adjacent parcels has already been zoned C-3, several parcels of land immediately adjacent to the Loop 101 Pima Freeway currently have A zoning, and will require rezoning to C-3.The CUP request covers the Spring Training Facility, but also the tribally-owned and private allotments immediately surrounding the Facility that will be developed for activities of spring training and other entertainment uses of the baseball facility. The project site includes land formerly used as a golf course dating back to the 1950s, and several abutting, previously vacant allotment land.
