City seeks feedback on Bella Vista Neighborhood Sector plan

Post Date:07/21/2026 1:24 PM

The City of Sierra Vista is seeking resident feedback on its Bella Vista Neighborhood Sector Examination plan.

The City, in partnership with the Neighborhoods Commission, has begun working with local residents to create a series of online interactive maps and supporting plan documents for the City’s residential neighborhoods. These maps and plans are meant to make it easier for people to find information about current conditions and future development in the City’s neighborhoods, subdivisions, and commercial areas. The first area being covered is the Bella Vista Neighborhood Sector.

The City held a meeting on March 30, 2026, to show the online web app and gather residents’ feedback about the neighborhood’s current conditions and future growth. After that meeting, City staff put together a plan document that includes the community’s input along with earlier analysis of the area. The plan also lays out goals for future policy, operations, and development.

The City is now asking for more feedback on this supplemental plan, especially on the goals for the future, because it’s important that the next steps reflect the community’s needs and ideas.

“To truly understand the current strengths and challenges of any given neighborhood, the best course of action is to ask the experts: the people who live and work there each day,” Sierra Vista Community Development Director Matt McLachlan says.

Residents can review the plan and offer feedback online by visiting Engage.SierraVistaAZ.gov. Residents can also learn more and offer comments in person at a public meeting on Friday, July 31, at 5:30 p.m. inside the Sierra Vista Public Library’s large meeting room.

For more information or assistance, contact the Community Development Department at (520) 417-4413 or Planning@SierraVistaAZ.gov.
