Work session held on ASLD solar and BESS proposal for ~660 acres east of Red Rock

Jennifer Dean of 39 North, LLC presented a work-session request on behalf of LSH Land Holdings, LLC and the Arizona State Land Department to redesignate approximately 660 acres from Employment and Moderate Low Density Residential to Green Energy Production to facilitate a utility-scale solar generation facility and BESS east of the APS Red Rock Solar project.

The agenda describes the site as generally located about 3 miles southeast of the Red Rock community, south of Mona Road and north of S. Dozer Road. The Board treated the item as information only; there was no vote or formal board action recorded on Sept. 2.

The work session offered an opportunity for staff and board members to review the proposed amendment and its mapping implications before any formal rezoning or PAD applications are filed, per the agenda notation.
