Proposed High Density Development Plan for NTM
There is a proposal underway to rezone 26 acres at the base of North Table Mountain – located about a 1/2 mile west of The Trails – from single family residents to multi-family, high-density rentals. If approved, allowed dwellings would increase from 1 dwelling per ¼ acre to 8 dwellings per ¼ acre.
The rezoning proposal is not compatible with the Master Plan for North Table Mountain and undermines the unique character of our community. Please read the letter from The Trails HOA Board below and visit the No Rezone NTM website for more information.
