The City of Tucson is planning for the future of a 3.5-mile stretch of the Grant Road corridor from Campbell to Swan.

On September 13, 2022, the City of Tucson Mayor and Council directed staff to begin the process of expanding the Grant Road overlay to address the vacant and remnant parcels as a result of the Grant Road Improvement Project and facilitate redevelopment along the corridor.

What is an Overlay District? Tucson uses zoning to shape development patterns and land use. Urban Overlay Districts are optional zoning districts encouraging comprehensively planned, pedestrian, and transit-oriented urban infill and mixed-use areas. Urban Overlay Districts allow flexible development standards and establish design guidelines for the area.

How can you provide input? For more detailed information on this project, please visit the Grant Road Investment District Expansion project page and complete the online survey or attend one of the meetings listed above.
