West Valley residents will soon have even more places to shop, live and work near Westgate.

Glendale City Council unanimously approved zoning and general plan changes Tuesday for the Glen91 planned development on a 15.5-acre site at the southeast corner of Glendale and 91st Avenues, which plans to include apartments, office space and commercial businesses. The site is immediately to the northeast of Westgate.

“I am excited to see this project,” said Yucca District Councilwoman Joyce Clark, whose district includes Glen91.

Ms. Clark has opposed apartment complexes under most circumstances but supports the Glen91 apartments because of the sites location and because she believes they will be top quality apartments.
