Re: Support for Zoning Ordinance Update 
Mayor Orsborn and City Councilmembers, 
We are writing to express our support for the Zoning Ordinance Code Amendment being 
considered at the October 21 City Council meeting, Case No. PLZM-24-0064.  Apex Clean 
Energy is a national renewable energy developer and looks forward to opportunities to work in 
the City of Buckeye.   
We truly appreciate the effort Development Services staff has made to listen to community and 
industry feedback throughout this process.  As the State’s utilities seek additional generation to 
meet quickly growing power needs spurred by growth and economic development, it is important 
to allow a clear path for renewable energy development that is consistent with community 
character and expectations.  We believe the final product for Buckeye’s Code Amendment 
strikes this balance and will help attract investment to your community.  We look forward to 
working with you in the future. 
 
Sincerely, 
 
Dylan Ikkala 
Director of Development 
Apex Clean Energy
