Pinal County supervisors approved the Fieldstone development near San Tan Valley on April 22, clearing 560 homes on 141 acres at Cooper and Bella Vista.

The Pinal County Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously recommended approval of “Project Ranger,” a 1,105-acre manufacturing development south of Florence. The project could revive the long-dormant Magma Arizona Railroad to support both the facility and Resolution Copper’s nearby filter plant.
