Once completed, Zanjero Trails will have a 4,495 residential single-family home customers and 4,894 equivalent customers including schools, restaurants, commercial customers, multifamily homes and light industrial facilities.

The development will take place in six phases spanning 20 years. Construction for the wastewater services will begin next year.

Liberty Utilities serves 20,500 water customers within the cities of Litchfield Park, Goodyear and Avondale.
