Michael Tone of the Rita Ranch Neighborhood has been working with Steve Anderson, principal planner for Pima County Natural Resources, Parks and Recreation, and Glenn Hicks, a senior planner for the Tucson Parks and Recreation Department, on a proposal to build a trail paralleling Rita Road to the north.

A small portion of the trail has been completed near the Fry's Plaza at Rita and Houghton roads.

More information on the trail will be presented at the next Rita Ranch Neighborhood Association meeting at 7 p.m. March 30 at Desert Sky Middle School, 9850 E. Rankin Loop.

Subdivision Phase I is completely sold

Phase I of Sierra Morado subdivision, just north of Bilby Road near Houghton, has sold out.

The original Phase I project called for 190 homes but has expanded to 227 homes with the approval for putting 37 homes at Bilby and Houghton roads.

The area was originally zoned for light commercial and retail space, but was changed to residential when Tucson Medical Center agreed to build a hospital on the southeast corner of Drexel and Houghton roads and the commercial and retail area was moved to the same corner.

Phase II of Sierra Morado, 579 homes, is scheduled to be built to the north of Phase I and construction is to start in May or June.

The Phase II public notice is found on the Mesquite Ranch Neighborhood Association's Web site www.mesquiteranch.org. Click on "Community Activities."
