and Youngs Farm Heritage
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Jan. 23 /PRNewswire/ -- Monogram Companies, an
experienced developer with a history of building appropriately scaled
neighborhoods that enhance existing communities, and Tom Chambers Properties
Inc., announced today the purchase of Youngs Farm. The planning process is
underway; however the Young family will continue to operate the farm through
2006. The appropriately scaled, low-density residential and commercial
village will include retailers such as a bank, grocery store, restaurant and
the farmers market to provide services to the people of Dewey-Humboldt and
visitors.
Monogram specializes in creating communities that often require special
expertise and the ability and sensitivity to work closely with surrounding
residents and local organizations, as well as city, county, state and federal
agencies, to resolve complicated land development issues. The company has
assembled a team of experts in planning, residential and commercial
architectural design, hydrology, water resources, traffic, and landscape
architecture to ensure best practices throughout all aspects of this project.
"Being selected to guide this historic property through its next phase of
development is an honor and an exciting opportunity," states Monogram Partner
Don Allison. "We appreciate how important this land has been to generations
of area residents and others throughout Arizona. Our goal is to develop a
project that honors the historical significance and small-town charm of
Youngs Farm and the surrounding area. This signature project will include a
variety of residential home styles and a Market Place that will provide added
services and tax revenue for the people of Dewey-Humboldt. We look forward to
meeting our future neighbors and becoming an integral part of this vibrant
community."
Dewey-Humboldt resident and real estate investor Julie Conner continues to
hold an interest in this project and will be actively involved in the
