The Gilbert Planning Commission recommended that Town Council approve rezoning a parcel on the southeast corner of Val Vista Drive and Elliot Road to make way for a self-storage facility and a retail development.
The 4.5-acre parcel was once home to a fitness center that was built in 1999 that closed.
By changing the zoning from shopping center to general commercial, the applicant can “redevelop the vacant fitness center into a self-storage facility, which is permitted under the General Commercial zoning district,” according to town planner Sal DiSanto.
