A trucker-friendly Circle K is slated for construction within 100 feet of the Pebble Creek retirement community recreational area in Goodyear, despite objections and protests from the community stakeholders.
A recommendation for approval from the Goodyear Planning and Zoning Commission came after a local church and the Pebble Creek community voiced written grievances to the city before the zoning board unanimously approved the motion.
According to the April Goodyear zoning board meeting, Refinery Church, just south of the planned 4.3-acre development, expressed concerns about traffic on 166th Avenue and trucks potentially entering the church property.
