“Finalizing a process that began years ago, approximately 521.60 acres of land in Flagstaff was sold at an auction to a Scottsdale-based company by the Arizona State Land Department for $17.5 million on June 3. 

Located south of Interstate 40 and just west of University Heights, the parcel completely surrounds Equestrian Estates and extends south to De Miguel Elementary School. South Woody Mountain Road is the boundary on the west side of the land, with the property line angling to the east in order to exclude two W. L. Gore & Associates buildings.”- Excerpts from an AZ Daily Sun article on June 19, 2024. 

Scott Roberts, CEO of Roberts Communities, Roberts Resorts and Ascent Real Estate Holdings is: 

• Proposing to rezone the parcel to High Density Residential, approximately 1900 homes.   

• He is also proposing to have no buffer zones between University Heights and Equestrian Estates. 

• This has the potential to severely damage the value and ability to sell our homes. 

• Mr. Roberts is proposing to submit his rezone request to the City in February or March 2026.  We would like to schedule a meeting with Roberts at Equestrian Estates in January to discuss the project.  Time and location to be announced in a future communication.
