Subject: Rezoning Mtg- My Objection
Hello Derek;
I am a neighbor on 142" Place (off of Quail Track) Parcel # 219-39-202G.
Unfortunately I cannot attend the meeting being held Thurs 1.17.2019, regarding the zoning change from RU-
190 to RU-43 outlined in Z2018124, on the corner of 144th and Cavedale. But I would like to voice my objection
to rezoning which would allow an increase in density.
My main concern, other than of course the well water issue, is that the future development of homes will
definitely impact the traffic density on 144th greater the density of development, the more cars and traffic
there will be.
Already, since Silver Spurs and the Smoking Rooster horse breeding and boarding facilities have moved in, I
cannot come or go from my house without passing 3-7 cars and/or trucks on 144th. This is at any time in the
work day.... 6:30 AM, Noon, 3 PM, 5:30 PM.... So clearly the amount of traffic is throughout the day.
It did not used to be this way and it is a noticeable difference. In the 6 years since we have lived here, the use
of 144th seems to have quadrupled. And being a dirt road it has really increased the amount of dust in the air.
When I get out of my car to get my mail I have to shut my car door, run to the box and get back into my car
before other traffic passes because I do not want the dust in my clothes, hair or vehicle.
So yes, I am concerned about the development density. The traffic is already mind boggling. And the water
usage out here is fragile.
Lowering the density to RU-43 will allow the developer to put 1 home per acre in this area greatly raising the
density
• This sets a precedence for other developers to do the same which will degrade the original plan to protect
this area from development to preserve the natural resources and habitat for the local wild life.
• The current traffic load on the unpaved 144th St. is already creating a large amount of dust and since the
rezoning area is at the end of 144 it will greatly add to this problem.
• Water is already a concern, nearly 50% of the wells in the area are dry or under producing. The existing well
will not provide enough water for this level of density which will further cause more traffic with water trucks.
Drilling more wells in this area will cause more stress to the local aquifer and cause more dry wells in the area.
Sincerely-
Carolyn and Mark Weinhold

David,
The impetus is with the applicant to resolve the opposition so the Board will take up and act on the
request. I really have no idea if they (the applicant) will contact you or let the request die on the vine.
When it does come back the site will have to be reposted with the new hearing date, the applicant will
have to send out their letter notification like before, and staff will send out their postcard notification
like before so you and the others in the area (300') of the site will most certainly be notified and this will
not slip through unnoticed.
I hope this helps alleviate any concerns about the process you may have.

Subject: Rezoning Laborde property case #Z2018124
Board of supervisors;
I am writing to you today asking you to vote "NO" to the rezoning of the Laborde
Property Case #Z2018124.
We have been working with the people trying to purchase the Laborde property
for several months to come to an agreement. We were told last night that would
not be possible. Our family has spent over $1,500 in legal fees to put together
appropriate documents for the Laborde family to sign in order for us to drop our
objection to the rezoning.
We realize that we should have been at the Zoning commission in January to
voice our objection. We were told that if we had objected it probably would not
have passed out of the Zoning Board since 100% of the private land owners within
330 feet of the property would be objecting to the rezoning. Unfortunately, my
Step Mother had passed away and we were back in Illinois for the funeral.
4

We have heard from several county staff that they are trying to correct something
from the 1970's. When we purchased our property at 219-39-204V, 21939-
204U, and 219-39-204T there was an easement for the Laborde Property to have
access using our gate and private drive. We were told that the 2.5 acres could
never have a house built because it was in a part of the county that required 5
acres to build a house and that they had been denied a variance in 2006. The
Laborde Family obviously did not plan for a house to ever be built on the land;
since they sold all 8 of the well shares for the well they dug on the land.
When we purchased our property there was not a need for a road agreement for
the Laborde family to use our private gate and private road. The well only needed
service a couple of times a year. If you are going to allow the rezoning and
increase the amount of traffic on our private road we need to have legal
assurance that they will help with the maintenance of our private gate and
road. Both the Laborde Family and the people wanting to purchase the property
are refusing to sign a road agreement.
Our understanding is that the Zoning Board was impressed that they received 27
letters of support for the rezoning of the property. With the location of the
property no other individuals would be affected by this rezoning. Us and Grant
Hartel, who is also opposing this rezoning, are the only properties affected.
With our objection to the rezoning we still have 100% of the private property
within 330 feet that object to this rezoning. Please vote "NO" to the rezoning of
the Laborde Property Case #Z2018124.
We would appreciate the opportunity to speak at the open meeting if that would
help you make your decision.
Please give me a call if you have any questions.
Thanks for your consideration.
Dave

Subject: Case # Z2018124
I am writing this email to voice my disapproval of rezoning the R-190 by my home to R-43. I live at 14346 E. Cavedale
Drive on the corner of 144th St. & Cavedale. Roughly 330' from the property in question. One of the reasons I chose to
live here was because we were across the street from the 5 acre zoning. Over the past 15 years the road maintenance
has been done by myself and a couple of other neighbors. If this rezone is approved. Where does it stop? Now I will
know all I have to do is buy the 5 acres across the street from me, split it up and profit. I'm sure you are aware of the high
density and traffic we are already dealing with and the last I heard there was nothing on the 10 year plan as far as road
improvements out here.
Thank You,

Derek, I would like to express my opposition to the proposed zoning change from RI-190 to RU-43. The proximity to the
area bordering the county park. The traffic on the unpaved 144th St. already creates a large amount of dust. Water is a

Subject: Urgent response to Case #Z2018124
Board of Supervisors and Derek Scheerer,
I am writing in regard to the LaBorde Property, Case #Z2018124 that is going before the County Supervisors on
Wednesday February 13, 2019. When this issue went before the committee we were in Illinois dealing with
the death of my fathers wife. In December we met with the party buying the property and were told that they
would only build one house. In a more recent discussion they would not commit to not dividing the
property. This made us very nervous.
When we purchased our property at 219-39-204V, 219-39-204U, and 219-39-204T there was an easement for
the LaBorde Property to have access using our gate and private drive. We were told that the 2.5 acres could
never have a house built because it was in a part of the county that required 5 acres to build a house and that
they had been denied a varience. They would only need to have access to the well on the LaBorde Property a
few times a year. Allowing this property to be divided into one acre lots will substantially increase the traffic
that will be using our private gate and private drive.
We have worked with the potential buyers and had a deed restriction drawn up that we were told they would
sign with some changes. The new buyers talked to our lawyer and the changes were made that they
requested. Tonight we were told they would not sign the agreement.
I see that the issue has been put on the "Consent Agenda". Is there any way to take this off the consent
agenda until we can come to an agreement with the potential buyers? Every personal property owner within
300 feet of this property is opposed to this rezoning as proposed. I think if we can have an additional month
we can come to an agreement that will work for all involved.
Thank you for your consideration.

Following our phone conversation and assuming all the facts stated in your below email are accurate, then yes, based
on this 2.5 acre lot having a Deed Restriction limiting the current lot to one buildable lot, no dividing into two
buildable lots and only one single family home, I support Zoning Change Z2018124.
If any of the facts reported below may be discovered being not accurate , I reserve my right to revoke my

Pat,
Hello! My name is Karen Nabity, I am a neighbor on 138th Street and I am assisting my children in
rezoning a 2.5 acre parcel, #219-39-032A, that is located past the gate at the South end of 144th St. at
Cavedale Dr.. The correct zoning for this lot size was not done in 1976 when the current owner
purchased the land. We are simply wanting to correct the zoning to make this a buildable lot for my
children to build a home for themselves.
There has been some incorrect information shared about what is being proposed with this zoning
change. Part of the misunderstanding of the Zoning Change is that Maricopa County Planning and
Development required we put two of the same sign next to each other on 144th St. near your
property. Almost always the signs are on the parcel asking for the zoning change. Due to this, it looked
like the zoning change was for a large parcel of land and it would be easy to assume that a developer
1

was involved. My hope is that by sharing the facts with you, you will agree this is the best option for this
parcel and the surrounding neighbors.
I. The zoning change is from RU-190 to RU-43. The lot size is not changing. Yes, RU-43 means that a
lot can be dividable to 1 house per acre, however, we have removed this concern with the Deed
Restriction in item 2. below.
2. This lot will NOT be subdivided into two buildable lots - it will remain one 2.5 acre lot. To that end, the
current owner has signed a permanent Deed Restriction that states "no further dividing of land that
allows for a second buildable lot" and "This Deed Restriction shall run with the land and shall be
binding upon the Grantor, heirs and any subsequent owners, their successors, heirs or
assigns." This will be recorded prior to the Zoning Change. This means in the future a "developer" may
not come in and subdivide this property and build two homes. Copy attached.
3. There will be only ONE SINGLE FAMILY HOME built. County Zoning requirements states very clearly
for RU-43 that there is only "One single-family dwelling per lot of record."
If you have any questions - please feel free to call or email me.
Please support this zoning change by responding to this email with:
Yes, based on this 2.5 acre lot having a Deed
Restriction limiting the current lot to one buildable lot,
no dividing into two buildable lots and only one single
family home, I support Zoning Change Z2018124.

Hi Karen,
Per our previous conversation, you indicated that the 2.5 acre plot at the South end of 144th, behind the gate, would be
used by your son-in-law and daughter to build their home. With your additional information I do agree to support the
rezoning request Z2018124.

Carol,
Hello! I am reaching out to you for support in this zoning change. This is a different one than the 260 home development
behind you. Here are the important details:
I am assisting my children in rezoning a 2.5 acre parcel, #219-39-032A, that is located behind the gate at the South end
of 144th St. at Cavedale Dr.. The correct zoning for this lot size was not done in 1976 when the current owner purchased
the land. We are simply wanting to correct the zoning to make this a buildable lot.
My hope is that by sharing the facts with you, you will agree this is the best option for this parcel.
1. The zoning change is from RU-190 to RU-43. The lot size is not changing. Yes, RU-43 means that a lot can be
dividable to 1 house per acre, however, we have removed this concern with the Deed Restriction in item 2. below.
2. This lot will NOT be subdivided. To that end, the current owner has signed a permanent Deed Restriction that
states "no further dividing of land that allows for a second buildable lot" and "This Deed Restriction shall run
with the land and shall be binding upon the Grantor, heirs and any subsequent owners, their successors, heirs or
assigns."
1

3. There will be only ONE SINGLE FAMILY HOME built. County Zoning requirements states very clearly for RU-43 that
there is only One single-family dwelling per lot of record."
Please support this zoning change by responding to this email with:
Yes, I support the Zoning Change Z2018124.

Ingrid,
Hello! I am reaching out to you for support in this zoning change. This is a different one than
the 260 home development at 136th and Rio Verde Dr. Here are the important details:

g. The granting of this change in use of the property has been at the request
of the applicant, with the consent of the landowner. The granting of this
approval allows the property to enjoy uses in excess of those permitted by
the zoning existing on the date of application, subject to conditions. In the
event of the failure to comply with any condition, the property shall revert
to the zoning that existed on the date of application. It is, therefore,
stipulated and agreed that either revocation due to the failure to comply
with any conditions, does not reduce any rights that existed on the date of
application to use, divide, sell or possess the property and that there would
be no diminution in value of the property from the value it held on the date
of application due to such revocation of the Zone Change. The Zone
Change enhances the value of the property above its value as of the date
the Zone Change is granted and reverting to the prior zoning results in the
same value of the property as if the Zone Change had never been granted.
h. All habitable buildings constructed within this subdivision shall be
constructed to attain a noise reduction level as per ARS § 28-8482(B).
Zoning - Z2018124 District 2
Applicant: Karen Nabity
Location: Approximately 300 south of the southeast corner of 144th St. and
Cavedale Dr. in the Rio Verde area
Request: Zone Change from Rural-190 to Rural-43 - Laborde Property
Mr. Scheerer presented Z2018124 and noted the site is approximately 2.5 acres in Rural-
190 zoning district with five acres minimum, and 4.33 is the minimum for development.
Staff has received five e-mailed letters of opposition since the production of the staff
report. Staff has received additional opposition and support, and received a total of six
letters of opposition and received seven letters of support. Staff is recommending
approval of the request with the conditions in the staff report.
Ms. Karen Nabity, the applicant said this is a 2.5 acre lot that was purchased in 1977 by
Lucy Laborde, and it was zoned incorrectly. She has a total of 24 letters of support with
her and five letters in opposition. She talked to the originating party of the letters against
and he was under the impression the zoning change was for 10 acres because they had
to have two signs posted by a big lot and everyone assumed it was a developer. Her
son would like to purchase this lot to build a family home. She asked for this request to be
approved, so the lot can become buildable.
Mr. Josh Morris said he is not a developer, and he is trying to make 2.5 acre lot buildable.
Some of the neighbors were under the wrong impression, but they are ahead of it now.
They have a lot of neighbor support along that street.
COMMISSION ACTION: Commissioner Hiatt motioned to approve Z2018124 with
conditions a'-'c'. Commissioner Arnett second. Approved 9-0.
a. Development of the site shall be in general conformance with the Narrative
Report entitled "Laborde Property Narrative", consisting of 2 pages,
Maricopa County Planning and Zoning Commission Minutes
Meeting of January 17, 2019
Page 22 of 23

undated, and stamped received November 7,2018, except as modified by
the following conditions.
b. Noncompliance with any Maricopa County Regulation shall be grounds for
initiating a revocation of this Zone Change as set forth in the Maricopa
County Zoning Ordinance.
c. The granting of this change in use of the property has been at the request
of the applicant, with the consent of the landowner. The granting of this
approval allows the property to enjoy uses in excess of those permitted by
the zoning existing on the date of application, subject to conditions. In the
event of the failure to comply with any condition, the property shall revert
to the zoning that existed on the date of application. It is, therefore,
stipulated and agreed that either revocation due to the failure to comply
with any conditions, does not reduce any rights that existed on the date of

3. There will be only ONE SINGLE FAMILY HOME built. County Zoning requirements states very clearly for RU-43 that

there can only be ONE SINGLE FAMILY HOME.

Subject: Zoning Request Z2018124 SUPPORT
Hello! I am reaching out to you for support in this zoning change. Here are the important details:
I am assisting my children in rezoning a 2.5 acre parcel #219-39-032A that is located behind the gate at the South end of
144th St. at Cavedale Dr.. The correct zoning for this lot size was not done in the 70's when the current owner purchased
the land. We are simply wanting to correct the zoning to make this a buildable lot.
My hope is that by sharing the facts with you, you will agree this is the best option for this parcel and the community.
1. The zoning change is from RU-190 to RU-43. The lot size is not changing. Yes, RU-43 means that a lot can be
dividable to 1 house per acre, however, we have removed this concern with the Deed Restriction in item 2. below.
1

2. This lot will NOT be divided into two buildable lots. To that end, the current owner has signed a permanent Deed
Restriction that states "no further dividing of land that allows for a second buildable lot" and "This Deed
Restriction shall run with the land and shall be binding upon the Grantor, heirs and any subsequent owners, their
successors, heirs or assigns." This Deed Restriction has been officially recorded.
3. There will be only ONE SINGLE FAMILY HOME built. County Zoning requirements states very clearly for RU-43 that
there is only "One single-family dwelling per lot of record." Since there can only be one buildable lot on this 2.5 acres
there can only be ONE SINGLE FAMILY HOME.
Please support this zoning change by responding to this email with:
Yes, I support Zoning Change Z2018124 to make this a buildable lot.

Subject: Rezoning Laborde property case #Z2018124
Board of Supervisors,
We continue to oppose the rezoning of the LaBorde Property, Case #Z2018124. McMurtry
Family Properties LLC owns the 5 acres adjacent to the west of the property; parcel numbers
219-39-204V, 219-39-204U, and 219-39-204T.
In March the Board sent this issue back to the owners to come to a resolution. In March we
had paid a lawyer to write up a Deed Restriction and Road Agreement that they refused to
sign. They refused to sign even after our lawyer made changes to the documents to meet the
concerns they expressed. A month ago the potential buyers of the property sent us an email
stating that they had the current owner, Lucie LaBorde, sign a Deed Restriction and had
several items for a Road Agreement. Instead of working with us to put together documents
that would be acceptable to both parties they unilaterally had Mrs. LaBorde sign a document
that is unenforceable. Their proposed Road Agreement limits their obligation to share in the
cost of maintenance to an estimate of the current cost to perform specific work. The
proponents of the rezoning cannot say to the Board that they tried to work with us but we
refused. In reality they just went behind our back and acted unilaterally. Our lawyer is
working on documents that will be sent to them that cover the issues they have with the Road
Agreement we proposed and an amendment to the Deed Restriction to make it enforecable.
We have heard from several county staff that they are trying to correct something from the
1970's. When we purchased our property at 219-39-204V, 219-39-204U, and 219-39-204T
there was an easement for the Laborde Property to have access using our gate and private
drive. We were told that the 2.5 acres could never have a house built because it was in a part
of the county that required 5 acres to build a house and that they had been denied a variance
in 2006. The Laborde Family obviously did not plan for a house to ever be built on the land;
since they sold all 8 of the well shares for the well they dug on the land.
When we purchased our property there was not a need for a road agreement for the Laborde
family to use our private gate and private road. The well only needed service a couple of times
a year. If you are going to allow the rezoning and increase the amount of traffic on our private
1

road we need to have legal assurance that they will help with the maintenance of our private
gate and road.
Our understanding is that the Zoning Board was impressed that they received 27 letters of
support for the rezoning of the property. With the location of the property no other
individuals would be directly affected by this rezoning. We and Grant Hartel, who is also
opposing this rezoning, are the only properties affected.
If this property is rezoned our quality of life will be diminished by having multiple people on
our private road on a daily basis. We enjoy the quiet location we purchased and the
tranquility of sitting on the roof enjoying the beauty of our community. This will also decrease
the value of our property.
We do not want to financially harm the LaBorde Family and we would be willing to work with
Lucie to come to a resolution that would not require the zoning to be changed.
With our objection to the rezoning we still have 100% of the private property within 330 feet
that object to this rezoning. Please vote "NO" to the rezoning of the Laborde Property Case
#Z2018124.
We would appreciate the opportunity to speak at the open meeting if that would help you
make your decision.
We are trying to set up a meeting with Jen Pokorski from Zoning and Planning to discuss the
issue.
Please give me a call if you have any questions.
Thanks for your consideration.

Re: Case #Z2018124 — Laborde Property
Board of Supervisors,
First, I apologize for the late submittal of this letter but since receiving the notification of the upcoming
BOS meeting via a post card my wife has been in the hospital having surgery.
I, along with my wife, am the owner of parcel #219-39-013L, which wraps around the east and north
borders of the Laborde property. We are again requesting that you vote "NO" to the rezoning request
outlined in the above referenced property case.
Please note that a number of previous letters from me both expressing opposition to this rezoning
request and providing some historical perspective regarding our and the Laborde property should be on
file under this case number.
Basically we remain opposed to the rezoning of the Laborde property for the same reasons as before:
#1 — First and foremost is that when we bought our property in 1984 it was our understanding that
Section 32 was and would remain zoned 5 acres (R-190). This was what we were looking for in terms of
achieving a lifestyle having spacious surroundings, not small property, high-density development
immediately adjacent to us.
#2 — Given all the well paraphernalia and associated land easement for access that already exist on the
Laborde property plus the further development plans being proposed (including a large home and most
likely one or more outbuildings, corrals and fencing to accommodate the housing of horses which we
are told will be on the property), we feel the property will rapidly become quite congested.
#3 — Our long term plan is to give our parcel to our oldest son who plans to build a home there after
retiring in the not too distant future. Both he and his wife would also very much like to live in and find
the surrounding area to be much as it is today and was envisioned by the County to be when initially
zoned.
#4 — Rezoning of the Laborde property to RU-43 would clearly devalue our property and very likely the
adjacent property to the west of the Laborde property, owned by the McMurtrys, especially since the
easement access to the Laborde property and the well runs through the McMurtry property. We feel
that the entire immediate surrounding neighborhood would be downgraded in terms of both property
valuation and life style quality should RU-43 zoning be granted.
My wife and I, along with the McMurtrys, certainly understand the predicament Lucie Laborde finds
herself in regarding the property she owns. Should this rezoning request be denied, we can envision a
number of solutions to resolve her problem and at the same time obviate the need for rezoning. It
certainly is not our intent to harm Lucie in any way.

Lastly, I do plan on attending the BOS meeting on June 12 th and would like the opportunity to speak at
the meeting.

Bill, David and Grant,
We are reaching out one last time in hopes to come to an agreement that will satisfy all parties. We believe there have
been some misunderstandings and want to clear the air so we are all on the same page. We hope by sharing our
understanding, concerns and a proposed solution that we can move forward.
First: We understand that you are concerned that more than one Single Family Home could be built on the property. We
stated clearly on our Public Notice signs and our plans that we are only building One Single Family Home. We want you
to understand why we did not sign your Property Restriction. The wording limited how the property could be used. It
stated "the residential use of the following described real property may not exceed one single-family dwelling and
accessory building unit/guest house" which could be interpreted that we could not build a spa, put in a small shed,
etc... It further stated "The property may be used for any non-residential use allowed by R-43 zoning, including but not
limited to equestrian uses." We feel we have been very clear that we will be living at the property as our primary
residence and the property will definitely be used for residential use. We felt this statement would limit the use to non-
residential use. For us - we were concerned we were being asked to sign something that would keep us from living on
the property as intended. As your concern is that only One Single Family Home be built - we have found a solution.
We have worked with the current owner, Lucie LaBorde, of the property and she has taken the very large step of
not only signing a Deed Restriction but having it recorded. A copy is attached. The Deed Restriction limits the property
to "no further dividing of land that allows for a second buildable RU-43 lot solely within" its boundaries. It further states
that it will "run with the land and shall be binding upon the Grantor, heirs and any subsequent owners, their successors.
heirs or assigns." In layman's terms: Limits property to one buildable lot. Additionally, Maricopa County Zoning
Ordinance states under Use Regulations for RU-43: "One single-family dwelling per lot of record." Since the property
will not be dividable into two lots and only One single-family dwelling can be built on a lot, this will ensure that now and
forever only One Single Family Home will be built on the lot. PLUS, in the years to come, no one, including a developer,
can come in and divide this property so more than one home can be built.
Second: The subject property has a long standing legal ingress/egress agreement across McMurtry's property. Mr.
McMurtry feels strongly that we pay towards the maintenance of his driveway that we must cross to get to our land. The
current blacktop from the gated entrance to Mr. McMurtry's home was installed prior to February 2006. It has been 13
years and is now needing some attention. We took the time to get a bid for the repair of the blacktop and a finished coat
from the gated entrance to the entrance to subject property. That came to $8,800 plus tax. In conversations together,
Josh and Bill, agreed.since David (Bill's son) will be building his home on the lot next to subject property at the same
time we will be building ours that the repair on the shared driveway be done after both homes are complete.
Based on this: 15 year maintenance cost of the driveway: $8,800 plus tax.
$8,800 divided by 3 shares would be: $2,934 plus tax.
Spreading that cost over 15 years equals: $196 plus tax per year
We are offering a generous driveway maintenance agreement. Contingent upon your support of our Zoning Change, we
would like to offer to agree to a maintenance agreement for that part of the driveway that is within the Ingress/Egress
agreement. The terms and conditions we are offering are:

1. The agreement for contributions toward maintenance would go into effect once 219-39-032A is finished being built
and approved for occupancy.
2. Maintenance will be undertaken and made whenever necessary to maintain the driveway in good operating condition
at all times and to insure the provision of safe access by emergency vehicles.
3. The Maintenance will be shared equally by all developed parcels using the entrance.
4. In any given year the contribution toward that years maintenance from Parcel 219-39-032A is limited to
$3,500. Additionally, in any 10 year period, the total amount is not to exceed $5,000.
(NOTE: This is equal to $500 per year. This is more than double the current cost of maintaining the driveway.
We feel this is a very generous amount and gives room toward unexpected costs and gate maintenance within
the Ingress Egress Agreement.)
5. All parcel owners utilizing the gated entrance agree not to interfere with Parcel 219-39-032A using the ingress/egress
easement to access their parcel. Parcel 219-39-032A will be given a code to the gate to access their property as has
been done with the current users of the easement and not have to call the McMurtry's home and wait to be buzzed in or
denied access if no one is there to buzz them in. Additionally, Parcel 219-39-032A and William McMurtry Agree that a
separate gate access device may be installed. The cost of the actual device being paid by Parcel 219-39-032A.
6. If Parcel 219-39-032A gives up the Ingress/Egress Easement for any reason, this road maintenance agreement will
no longer be in affect.
We hope you see that we are putting our best foot forward with both the very strict Deed Restriction and the generous
dollar amount towards maintenance. If you agree to these terms and agree to support our request for the change in
zoning we would be happy to have a formal maintenance agreement drawn up for signatures. If you do not agree -
please communicate that reason with us so we can continue this conversation.

Subject: #Z2018124 Morris Response to McMurtrys opposition email dated June 7th
To Rachel, Jen, and Page,
This is in response to McMurtry's recent opposition letter stating "The proponents of the rezoning
cannot say to the Board that they tried to work with us but we refused. In reality they
just went behind our back and acted unilaterally." We would like to show that in fact
we reached out to them 3 times via email with the current Deed Restriction and a
proposed Maintenance Agreement May 9th, 2019, May 17th, 2019 and June 5, 2019 to
which McMurtry and Hertel never responded.
Below is the email dated May 9th, 2019. It clearly details our proposed Deed Restriction and Maintenance
Agreement. Lucie LaBorde signed the Deed Restriction before sending so that McMurtry and Hertel could see
that Lucie was open to this and if they agreed we could have it filed. The email ends with "We hope you see that
we are putting our best foot forward with both the very strict Deed Restriction and the generous dollar amount towards
maintenance, If you agree to these terms and agree to support our request for the change in zoning we would be happy
to have a formal maintenance agreement drawn up for signatures. If you do not agree - please communicate that
reason with us so we can continue this conversation."
Since there was no response to our May 9th email, we reached out to Jen Pokorski and Page Gonzales for
advice. We were told that they would not take into consideration a Deed Restriction that was not filed and that
it would help if the Deed Restriction was filed.
The Deed Restriction was filed with Maricopa County. It is not reversible.
A similar email was sent again to Grant Hertel, Bill and David McMurtry with a copy of the recorded Deed
Restriction on both May 17th and June 5th. Both Jen Pokorski and Page Gonzales were included on these
last two emails. Copies were sent to Rachel Applegate.
As of this email on June 10th no response has been received from McMurtry, Hertel or their Attorney.
We hope the County Board of Supervisors sees that we are putting our best foot forward with this very strict
Deed Restriction and our many efforts to reach out to Hertel and McMurtry.
Thank you for taking the time to review this information.
Sincerely,
Josh and Brittany Morris

1. The agreement for contributions toward maintenance would go into effect once both Josh and David's homes are
finished being built and approved for occupancy.
2. Road maintenance will be undertaken and made whenever necessary to maintain the road in good operating condition
at all times and to insure the provision of safe access by emergency vehicles.
2. The Maintenance will be shared equally by all developed parcels using the entrance.
3. In any given year the contribution toward that years maintenance from Parcel 219-39-032A is limited to
$3,500. Additionally, in any 10 year period, the total amount is not to exceed $5,000. (NOTE: This is a much higher dollar
figure than 1/3 ($2,933) of the actual cost ($8,800) currently to repair the driveway every 15 years. We feel this is a very
generous amount and gives room toward unexpected costs or repair of the gate.)
4. All parcel owners utilizing the gated entrance agree not to interfere with Parcel 219-39-032A using the ingress/egress
easement to access their parcel. Parcel 219-39-032A will be given a code to the gate to access their property as has been
2

done with the current users of the easement and not have to call the McMurtry's home and wait to be buzzed in or denied
access if no one is there to buzz them in. Additionally, Parcel 219-39-032A can work with McMurtry to install a separate
gate access device. The cost of the device being paid by Parcel 219-39-032A.
5. If Parcel 219-39-032A gives up the Ingress/Egress Easement for any reason, this road maintenance agreement will no
longer be in affect.
We hope you see that we are putting our best foot forward with both the very strict Deed Restriction and the generous
dollar amount towards maintenance, If you agree to these terms and agree to support our request for the change in
zoning we would be happy to have a formal maintenance agreement drawn up for signatures. If you do not agree -
please communicate that reason with us so we can continue this conversation.

I understand the concern. I have made revisions that I believe match what Bill and Josh have
discussed. The revision is attached. If this is acceptable, then all Josh and Brittany need to sign
now is page 1. The page with the signatures to be notarized is for later.

Mark,

Josh and Brittany will not be signing the Property Restriction. It is very restrictive. When they go to apply for a
building permit for a house, with fence, maybe a corral, covered area, gas fire pit, spa, septic, well or hauled
water, etc.. only the house would be allowed.
Please call me to see if we can come up with something both parties can agree on.

Subject: Rezoning Laborde property case #Z2018124
Board of Supervisors,
5

We continue to oppose the rezoning of the LaBorde Property, Case #Z2018124. McMurtry
Family Properties LLC owns the 5 acres adjacent to the west of the property; parcel numbers
219-39-204V, 219-39-204U, and 219-39-204T.
In March the Board sent this issue back to the owners to come to a resolution. In March we
had paid a lawyer to write up a Deed Restriction and Road Agreement that they refused to
sign. They refused to sign even after our lawyer made changes to the documents to meet the
concerns they expressed. A month ago the potential buyers of the property sent us an email
stating that they had the current owner, Lucie LaBorde, sign a Deed Restriction and had
several items for a Road Agreement. Instead of working with us to put together documents
that would be acceptable to both parties they unilaterally had Mrs. LaBorde sign a document
that is unenforceable. Their proposed Road Agreement limits their obligation to share in the
cost of maintenance to an estimate of the current cost to perform specific work. The
proponents of the rezoning cannot say to the Board that they tried to work with us but we
refused. In reality they just went behind our back and acted unilaterally. Our lawyer is
working on documents that will be sent to them that cover the issues they have with the Road
Agreement we proposed and an amendment to the Deed Restriction to make it enforecable.
We have heard from several county staff that they are trying to correct something from the
1970's. When we purchased our property at 219-39-204V, 219-39-204U, and 219-39-204T
there was an easement for the Laborde Property to have access using our gate and private
drive. We were told that the 2.5 acres could never have a house built because it was in a part
of the county that required 5 acres to build a house and that they had been denied a variance
in 2006. The Laborde Family obviously did not plan for a house to ever be built on the land;
since they sold all 8 of the well shares for the well they dug on the land.
When we purchased our property there was not a need for a road agreement for the Laborde
family to use our private gate and private road. The well only needed service a couple of times
a year. If you are going to allow the rezoning and increase the amount of traffic on our private
road we need to have legal assurance that they will help with the maintenance of our private
gate and road.
Our understanding is that the Zoning Board was impressed that they received 27 letters of
support for the rezoning of the property. With the location of the property no other
6

individuals would be directly affected by this rezoning. We and Grant Hartel, who is also
opposing this rezoning, are the only properties affected.
If this property is rezoned our quality of life will be diminished by having multiple people on
our private road on a daily basis. We enjoy the quiet location we purchased and the
tranquility of sitting on the roof enjoying the beauty of our community. This will also decrease
the value of our property.
We do not want to financially harm the LaBorde Family and we would be willing to work with
Lucie to come to a resolution that would not require the zoning to be changed.
With our objection to the rezoning we still have 100% of the private property within 330 feet
that object to this rezoning. Please vote "NO" to the rezoning of the Laborde Property Case
#Z2018124.
We would appreciate the opportunity to speak at the open meeting if that would help you
make your decision.
We are trying to set up a meeting with Jen Pokorski from Zoning and Planning to discuss the
issue.
Please give me a call if you have any questions.
Thanks for your consideration.
Dave
