Maricopa’s legislation record lists Ordinance 26-16 as passed on Oct. 20, 2026, rezoning about 0.9 acres at the northwest corner of West Mercado and North Main streets. The city’s staff report identifies a proposed food-truck court for the site. This is a zoning step, not an opening announcement: the report says a temporary-use permit application would undergo further review. The reviewed city records do not give an opening date.
