i. Noncompliance with any of the conditions assigned to the approval of this Zone Change 
by the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors may be grounds for revocation in accordance
with the requirements and procedures as set forth in the Maricopa County Zoning Ordinance.
j. The property owner/s and their successors waive claim for diminution in value if the County
takes action to rescind approval due to noncompliance with conditions. 
k. 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 may be 
considered for revocation 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.

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 or expiration 
of the Special Use Permit.  The Special Use Permit enhances the value of the property above
its value as of the date the Special Use Permit is granted and reverting to the prior zoning 
results in the same value of the property as if the Special Use Permit had never been granted.

Vice Chair Brophy McGee introduced item 15 and asked Planning and Development Staff, 
Tom Ellsworth, Director of Planning and Development, and Darren Gerard, Planning Division 
Manager, to come forward. The Clerk said there were 3 speaker slips, one to speak in favor, 
and two in opposition. Vice Chair Brophy McGee asked Mr. Ellsworth and Mr. Gerard to 
proceed with their presentation. 
Mr. Ellsworth gave an overview and history of the item. He noted that the proposed site is 
approximately 2,077 acres, stating the applicant seeks to remove the 2007 Hassayampa 
Ranch Development Master Plan (DMP), which has remained undeveloped, and redesignate 
the property to Industrial. He noted that specific uses would be determined through future 
rezoning and site plan review. Mr. Ellsworth described the surrounding area as rural desert 
with nearby industrial activity, including active mines to the east and southeast and the 
approved Belmont industrial plan to the west. The site’s proximity to the future I-11 corridor 
supports its viability for industrial employment uses. County agencies reported no outstanding 
concerns. Mr. Ellsworth stated that significant neighborhood opposition was received, 
including formal objections and petitions, with concerns related to traffic, property values, 
noise, environmental impacts, water use, and compatibility with rural residences. All nine 
property owners within 300 feet opposed the request. He reported that on November 6, 2025, 
the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 8–0 to recommend approval of CPA250008, 
finding the request consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and area plan, and noting the 
original DMP is unlikely to develop under current conditions. The slides below provide an 
overview of the proposed site.

Supervisor Lesko inquired about the proximity of the proposed site to the Belmont project. 
Mr. Ellsworth stated the site is located approximately two miles west of Belmont. Supervisor 
Lesko asked what had been approved by the Board in the Belmont area regarding 
commercial and industrial uses. Mr. Ellsworth responded that the Board approved an 
industrial land use designation under the Tonopah/Arlington Area Plan, similar in nature to 
the current request, to prepare the property for future zoning consideration. Supervisor Lesko 
noted that the City of Buckeye had previously expressed concerns but is now neutral. Mr. 
Ellsworth confirmed that the city initially submitted a letter of concern; however, after meeting 
with the applicant and receiving assurances that concerns would be addressed during the 
rezoning and entitlement process, the City of Buckeye withdrew its opposition. Mr. Ellsworth 
further confirmed that the property currently holds entitlement zoning for higher-density 
residential and commercial uses under the original DMP.

Supervisor Lesko asked about the location and size of neighboring properties opposing the 
project. Ms. Riddell stated the opposition is from southern neighbors with one-acre-plus 
properties. Supervisor Lesko asked about the timeline for application, what type of structure 
will be built and concerns. Ms. Riddell indicated the zoning application would be submitted 
within 30 to 60 days and that the site is primarily planned for data centers. Ms. Riddell 
summarized neighbor concerns, including land use, appearance, water use, setbacks, and 
roads, and stated these would be addressed with future site plans. She also confirmed the 
sand and gravel operation will continue.
Vice Chair Brophy McGee asked the Clerk to call the names of the speakers who were 
present to speak. 
Cepand Alizadeh, representing the Arizona Technology Council, spoke in favor of the project. 
He stated it would advance the technology sector and create jobs along the future I-11 
corridor.
Vice Chair Brophy McGee asked Brooke Worcester, Legal Counsel, to explain the online 
participation for this item. 
Ms. Worcester said that virtual comments in opposition will be allowed because this is a 
regular statutory hearing item required to be heard by law that is distinguished from regular 
public comment which is not required by law.
Cherisse Campbell, resident, via webinar, spoke in opposition. She noted that the proposed 
project would disrupt her nearby hatchery business, which depends on a low-stress 
environment for free-range birds. She said industrial development would harm her birds, 
threaten her mental health, water issues, and that data centers are not suitable for the area.
Supervisor Lesko questioned whether preserving the land was feasible given its high-density 
residential and commercial designation. Mr. Ellsworth said it is zoned as a master-planned 
community and would follow environmental regulations during development.
Kathleen Fletcher, resident, spoke in opposition. She raised concerns about property values, 
growth, noise, water and power use, and overall community impacts.
Supervisor Stewart raised concerns about the water and energy impacts of data centers. Ms. 
Riddell responded that those issues could be addressed during the zoning case hearing.
Supervisor Lesko thanked the speakers for their comments and briefly expressed her support 
for the project.
Motion to concur with the Planning Commission recommendation for approval by 
Resolution as printed on the agenda by Supervisor Debbie Lesko, seconded by

Page 43 of 111
Pursuant to A.R.S. § 9-471.03 convene the scheduled public hearing regarding the de-
annexing road right-of-way from City of Avondale jurisdiction to Maricopa County.
Right-of-way location: Litchfield Road, 1/2 mile south of Lower Buckeye Road.  
The Board of Supervisors determined at a public hearing on November 19, 2025 that such 
action would be in the public interest and has complied with the additional requirements of 
A.R.S. § 9-471.03.
If approved, the Board of Supervisors:
1. Orders that the public right-of-way be returned as specified in City of Avondale Ordinance
No. 2035-1025., returning the public right-of-way to Maricopa County.
2. Pursuant to ARS § 9-471.02, directs the Clerk of the Board to notify the City of Avondale 
that the Board of Supervisors order regarding the de-annexation of the public right-of-way 
was approved, and
3. Directs the Clerk of the Board to certify a copy of the order of the Board and file it for 
record in the Office of the County Recorder.
Legal description of the roadway being de-annexed, identified as Exhibit "A", is attached.
MCDOT Analysis: This roadway provides regional connectivity as a minor arterial roadway. 
Development directly fronts this roadway and improvement, including accommodating the 
intersection at Litchfield Road and Lower Buckeye Road, necessitate additional right of way 
to ensure public safety.
The Board action will result to add 0.0016 square miles to County ownership and enable the
County to assume responsibility for road maintenance.
Financial Status: Cost of the roadway development falls to the developer with no initial cost 
to Maricopa County.  Cost of maintenance moving forward is typical of roadway maintenance
cost and will be the responsibility of Maricopa County. The cost of roadway maintenance 
provides a benefit to the traveling public

PROPOSED REVISIONS OF MARICOPA COUNTY PARKS AND RECREATION 
DEPARTMENT USER FEE SCHEDULE
(Supervisory District: All)
Pursuant to A.R.S. §11-251.08 and 11-251.13, convene the scheduled public hearing to 
gather comments and adopt the proposed changes to the Maricopa County Parks and 
Recreation Department User Fee Schedule. Upon Board approval, this item will become 
effective on January 1, 2026, and subsequently on January 1, 2027, and January 1, 2028.
After consulting with the Advisory Parks and Recreation Commission, the Department has 
determined that adjustments to the User Fee Schedule are necessary for cost recovery. 
Updating the fee schedule will enable the Department to use collected revenues directly for 
daily operations, facility maintenance, and essential repairs within the County’s regional park 
system.

Formal Meeting Minutes
12/10/2025
Page 47 of 111
The Parks and Recreation Commission reviewed the proposed revisions during its public 
meeting on August 26, 2025, and did not receive any public comments. The meeting was 
advertised on the Department’s website, through social media, and within park facilities. As 
required by statute, the matter has now been set for a public hearing before the Board of 
Supervisors.
If the proposed revisions are approved, authorize the following adjustments to the FY 2026 
budget, in accordance with A.R.S. §42-17106 (B). 
1. Increase the expenditure authority for the Parks and Recreation (D300) Parks 
Enhancement Fund (241) Operating (OPER) by $400,000, (D300) Lake Pleasant Fund (240)
Operating (OPER) by $100,000.
2. Decrease the expenditure authority for the Non-Departmental (D470) Non-Departmental 
Grants Fund (249) Operating (OPER) Contingency (4711) in the line “Parks Fee Study” by 
$500,000.
3. Increase the revenue authority for the Parks and Recreation (D300) Parks Enhancement 
Fund (241) Operating (OPER) by $400,000, (D300) Lake Pleasant Fund (240) Operating 
(OPER) by $100,000.
4. Decrease the revenue authority for the Non-Departmental (D470) Non-Departmental 
Grants Fund (249) Operating (OPER) Contingency (4711) in the line “Parks Fee Study” by 
$500,000.
These actions will have a County-wide net impact of $0, and they do not alter the budget 
constraining the expenditure of local revenues duly adopted by the Board pursuant to A.R.S.
§42-17105.
(C-30-26-007-X-00)

FUNDING FROM THE US DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, DRUG ENFORCEMENT 
ADMINISTRATION (DEA) FOR THE PHOENIX TASK FORCE – FFY26
Approve the Notice of Limits for FFY26 State and Local Overtime Reimbursements and 
accept up to $22,155.25 in reimbursement funding from the US Department of Justice, Drug 
Enforcement Administration (DEA) for officers assigned to DEA-managed task forces. The

the Judicial Branch in the amount of $2,455,332.00.  The indirect cost rate as of July 2026

not allow indirect cost recovery as reflected in the funding agreements filed with the 
Department of Finance.  The status of indirect costs for each grant is on file in the office of 
the Clerk of the Board in accordance with ASLAPR retention policy.  The amount of indirect 
costs on eligible expenditures are estimated to be $308,319.37 with $287,763.83 as

$100,000.00.
Also, pursuant to A.R.S. § 42-17106, approve appropriation adjustments resulting in a net 
increase to revenues and expenditures of $419,647 in the FY 2026 Adult Probation 
Department (D110) Adult Probation Grants Fund (211) Operating (OPER) budget.  Approval

result in an overall appropriation of $727,211 for expenditures in the Adult Probation 
Department (D110) Adult Probation Grants Fund (211) Non Recurring (NRNP) budget.
Grant revenues are not local revenues for the purpose of the constitutional expenditure 
limitation and, therefore, expenditures of these revenues are not prohibited by the budget 
law.  This request does not alter the budget constraining the expenditures of local revenues 
adopted by the Board of Supervisors pursuant to A.R.S. § 42-17105.
The agenda item includes reoccurring and non-reoccurring grants. Future ongoing 
contributions may or may not be required after the grant award periods end. Grant awards 
fulfill judicial mandated services. Grant awards are competitively and non-competitively bid.

JUSTICE COURTS VETERANS TREATMENT COURT GRANT AUTHORIZATION
Approve the application and acceptance of grant funds from the Arizona Administrative 
Office of the Courts in the amount of $29,766 for the purpose of supporting the Maricopa 
County Justice Courts’ Veterans Treatment Court. The award begins on July 1, 2025, and
ends on June 30, 2026.
 
Authorize the Chairman to sign all documents related to these grant funds, as applicable.
 
The grant award is a one-time non-competitive grant that has been awarded to the Maricopa
County Justice Courts for Fiscal Year 2026. The grant money is provided for in 2025’s 
SB1735, is non-competitively bid, and other veteran treatment courts are eligible for 
additional monies from this grant award. The grant may be renewed and adjusted in the next
legislative session.
 
The department has no equivalent match requirement and no indirect costs, therefore 
MCJC’s indirect rate for FY26 is 0.0%. This funding does not require future contributions.
 
Grant revenues are not local revenues for the purpose of the constitutional expenditure 
limitation, and therefore, expenditure of the funds is not prohibited by the budget law.
 
While not a mandated function, this grant provides significant benefits to veterans in 
Maricopa County. Funding supports essential treatment programs and covers transportation 
costs—such as bus passes or fees—when veterans are ineligible due to discharge status, 
military branch (e.g., National Guard), or when the VA does not offer the necessary classes 
for substance use disorders or mental health conditions.

The County is being awarded first time funds from OEO to develop and deliver expanding

The Workforce Development Division submitted an application to the Arizona Office of
Economic Opportunity in September 2025. The funds were awarded through a competitive

require future or ongoing contributions by the County at the end of the performance period.

with wrap-around services for up to 12 months, post-completion of training. The County is 
not required to provide cash or in-kind match.

amount is $291,539.53 of which no costs will be allocated for salaries and ERE. The awarded
grant funds will be passed through to training providers and are not subject to indirect cost
recovery. Indirect costs will be absorbed by the Human Service Department Budget.
The services provided under this grant are not a mandated function but provide a benefit to 
Maricopa County residents by providing career and training opportunities, assistance to job 
seekers, youth, dislocated workers, veterans and to employers that need to fill vacancies.

limitation, and therefore, expenditure of the revenues is not prohibited by the budget law.

adopted by the Board pursuant to A.R.S. 42-17105. The overall budget will be adjusted as 
necessary to accommodate the grant funding through a future reconciliation.

populations improve for both public and private health care recipients.  All program costs are
allocated to the grant so there will be no additional burden on the department’s operating 
budget.  
Grant revenues are not local revenues for the purpose of the constitutional expenditure 
limitation, and therefore, expenditure of the revenues is not prohibited by the budget law. 
This Amendment does not alter the budget constraining expenditures of local revenues duly 
adopted by the Board pursuant to A.R.S. 42-17105.  The overall grant budget will be adjusted
as necessary to accommodate this grant through a future reconciliation.  Funding for this 
Agreement will not affect the County’s General Fund.

Agreement does not alter the budget constraining expenditures of local revenues duly 
adopted by the Board pursuant to A.R.S. §42-17105.  The overall grant budget will be

RECEIPT OF FUNDS FROM ARIZONA DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION FOR THE 
CHILD AND ADULT CARE FOOD PROGRAM
(Supervisory district: All)
Approve the acceptance of funds from the Arizona Department of Education (ADE) Child 
and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP). CACFP funds are provided to Maricopa County 
and administered by the Human Services Department Early Education Division, Maricopa 
County Head Start Program. The Head Start Program submitted a funding application to 
ADE in the amount of $981,955 for the period of October 1, 2025, through September 30, 
2026. Maricopa County Head Start program is an annual reoccurring recipient of CACFP 
funds from ADE with the submission of an application. ADE provided electronic notification 
on December 2, 2025, that the Head Start funding and management plan was approved.
Also request authorization for the Human Services Department Director to sign all 
documents related to acceptance of funds and any additional awards issued subsequently 
up to the estimated funding amount, as noted in the Permanent Agreement with ADE fully
executed in October 26, 2013 (C-22-14-027-G-00) and as amended on August 20, 2025 (C-
22-14-027-G-14). CACFP funds may be increased throughout the budget year as additional
funds are made available to cover unanticipated food costs. If the Head Start program is 
notified of availability of additional funds, the Department will request formal approval by the
Board for acceptance of any increase in funds
The Funds are utilized to provide meals and snacks that meet 1/3 to 2/3 of the daily nutritional
needs of the Head Start program participants. The Head Start program submits an annual 
grant application to the Arizona Department of Education Child and Adult Care Food 
Program, which is funded and administered at the federal level by the Food and Nutrition 
Service, an agency of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). CACFP provides 
federal funds to nonresidential child and adult care facilities, emergency shelters, eligible 
after-school programs and family day care providers who serve nutritious meals and snacks.
In Arizona, the Arizona Department of Education (ADE) directly administers CACFP. The 
goal of CACFP is to improve and maintain the health and nutritional status of children and 
adults in care settings while promoting the development of good eating habits.
The Human Services Department indirect rate for FY2026, approved by the U.S. Department
of Health and Human Services is 24% for salaries and employee related expenses. The 
agreement funds are $981,955 of which $0 is for salaries and ERE, therefore indirect costs 
are $0 and are not subject to indirect cost recovery.
Annual Funding is reoccurring and does not require an in-kind or cash match or a 
commitment after the end of the term. The services provided by the funds are not mandated 
services but are a benefit to Head Start program participants by providing nutritious meals 
and snacks. 
Grant revenues are not local revenues for the purpose of the constitutional expenditure 
limitation, and therefore expenditure of the revenues is not prohibited by the budget law. The 
grant funds do not alter the budget constraining expenditures of local revenues duly adopted
by the Board pursuant to A.R.S. §42-17105. The overall grant budget will be adjusted as 
necessary to accommodate this grant through a future reconciliation. The receipt of the funds
does not impact the County fund.
