A group is working to stop a developer near Rainbow Boulevard and Blue Diamond Road.

A plot of land smaller than 20 acres is currently reserved for businesses. But one developer put in an application to change the zoning and build more than 300 apartments.

Many local homeowners do not want to see this happen. They've put together a website to build support, and met with commissioners and the developer to stop the re-zoning.

"We live in this area. We understand what we need," said Dennis Selby, a local homeowner.
