Chair Brophy McGee asked Mr. Ellsworth and Mr. Gerard to proceed with their presentation. Mr. Ellsworth provided an overview of item SU250021, the Rachero Livestock & Supplies Project. The request is for a Special Use Permit to allow a home-based cottage industry for hay storage and distribution, including the operation of hay squeeze equipment on a 1.2-acre rural residential site with a single-family home. He noted significant neighborhood opposition at the Planning and Zoning hearing, along with concerns about the intensity of the use and prior operational violations. Rather than deny the application, the Commission voted 5–3 to approve a compromise: a two-year permit with strict stipulations to prevent violations and allow the applicant time to relocate the business to a more appropriate location. Mr. Ellsworth noted that opposition from neighbors remains. The slides below provide an overview of the proposed site.

Mr. Ellsworth confirmed its receipt and explained that the additional opposition triggered a supermajority requirement. Chair Brophy McGee asked staff when the operation began operating illegally, and Mr. Ellsworth responded that it has been doing so for at least a year. Chad Dixon, applicant, with Tangent Point Architecture, came forward to present. He noted that the property owner had retained his services to assist with her hay business. He explained the nature of the hay business and referenced the fire marshal’s guidelines regarding property line setbacks. Mr. Dixon confirmed the owner’s willingness to follow all guidelines and said that a two-year timeline would provide sufficient time to find another location and move the business. Vice Chair Lesko summarized the proposal and neighbors’ concerns, including noise, safety, dust, traffic, and ongoing activity outside approved hours. She noted complaints about hay stacking above the fence. Mr. Dixon clarified that the 8 a.m.– 4 p.m. limit applies only to hay squeezing, not truck activity, and said hay is not always stored on- site. After confirming the hay-squeezing hours, Vice Chair Lesko asked about using the Wickenburg property for storage, and Mr. Dixon said his client is using her property in Wittmann for now due to logistical challenges with the Wickenburg location. ~ Supervisor Gallardo entered the meeting~ Chair Brophy McGee questioned why the business started operating without permits and why it has not moved to a different location. Mr. Dixon responded that his client is currently working to secure the necessary permits and invited her to address the questions directly. Nereida Castro, the property owner, came forward to respond to the Chair’s questions. She explained that during the early stages of starting her business, she sought guidance from the County on permit requirements. She began obtaining the necessary permits after receiving a violation complaint. Chair Brophy McGee asked the Clerk to call the names of the speakers who were present via webinar to speak in opposition. The following attendees spoke in opposition via webinar, citing concerns about hay storage at multiple properties, after-hours equipment use, fumes, privacy, noise, traffic safety, multiple businesses operating from the property, and hay stacked above the height of the fence. Debbie Thompson, resident Sara Blier, resident George and Illabelle Orvalla, residents Doug Ryland, resident Ms. Castro came forward to provide closing comments. She explained that the nearby property currently used for hay storage is owned by a landlord who is in the process of converting it to commercial use. She acknowledged the neighbors’ concerns and stated that she is working to expand operations at the Wickenburg location. For this reason, she requested additional time to begin the relocation process. Vice Chair Lesko provided additional comments in support of her motion.
