Protect Prescott Valley. Stop Wildcat Subdivisions

A YES vote ensures Prescott Valley controls how this land is developed — with protections for water, infrastructure, and our quality of life.

About Prop 492

Prop 492 puts approximately 650 acres of land under Prescott Valley’s jurisdiction — ensuring local control over its development.

This proposal is not about growth — it’s about whether Prescott Valley manages its future or allows more developers to do whatever they want without controls to protect Prescott Valley.

Why This Matters

Prescott Valley residents consistently identify water supply and growth as the top concerns facing the community.

That means every decision about development must be done carefully, transparently, and with long-term planning in mind.

If approved:

  • The Town of Prescott Valley controls 650 acres it does not right now

  • Infrastructure and services are planned in advance

  • Community benefits are guaranteed

If rejected:

  • Development will occur under county jurisdiction

  • Less oversight and fewer protections apply

  • The Town loses the ability to guide outcomes

Our Goal

This proposal aims to:

  • Ensure responsible management of water and infrastructure

  • Protect existing residents and resources

  • Deliver meaningful community benefits

Frequently Asked Questions
