St. George advances plans for 3,350-acre planned community along Arizona border

Oct. 22, 2018

Ambitious plans to build what amounts to an entire new city along Utah's southern border moved closer to reality Thursday, with the St. George City Council giving its unanimous approval to more than 1,300 acres worth of zone changes.

Desert Color, designed to eventually build out to 3,350 acres, is planned as one of the largest master-planned developments in Utah history. It would transform the desert expanse along the Utah-Arizona border and eventually house tens of thousands of new southern Utah residents. Single-family homes, apartments, shopping, resort-style rentals, schools, parks and all the other trappings of a fully-functioning, self-sustaining community are planned to move in together.
