Case #/Title:
Z250003 – Tonopah Logistics Center
Supervisor District:
4
Applicant/Owner:
Ed Reichenberg / Tonopah A-2 LLC
Request:
Zone Change with Overlay from Rural-43 to IND-2 IUPD
Site Location:
Generally located approx. 1,979’ west of the NWC of Indian School
Rd & 411th Ave in the Tonopah area
Site Size:
Approximately 62 acres
County Island Status:
N/A
Additional
Comments:
The proposed IND-2 IUPD zoning overlay is intended to limit entitled
uses to light industrial and general commerce uses that are
compatible with the Tonopah Arlington Area Plan’s Mixed-Use
designation, including an industrial distribution or commercial park,
light industrial, and manufacturing. The southern 600-feet of the
southern parcel will be reserved for non-industrial warehouse uses
in support of distribution operations, their employees and
neighborhood area retail needs and uses allowing retail combined
with outdoor storage screened and secured from public view.
Future property owners and users will be required to resolve their
water, wastewater services, and traffic studies at the time of plan
of development application. The site is not presently served by any
utilities and there is not any utility service agreement in place. There
is not a precise plan of development proposed at this time but will
subsequently be provided for administrative approval prior to
construction permitting.
Five memos commenting on the case were received. One memo of
support was received by neighborhood advocacy group STOPP,
INC, consisting of 5 board members. A second rebuttal memo was
provided by STOPP, INC. board member Daniel Blackson in
response to a memo of opposition submitted by Tonopah
Residents Opposed to Incorporation. Tonopah Residents Opposed
to Incorporation provided a memo of opposition that included a list
of 86 names and corresponding cross streets for each individual.
No handwritten signatures or addresses were provided on this list.

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.

Project Summary:
1.
The applicant has requested a rezoning of 62 acres from Rural-43 to IND-2 IUPD. The site spans
I-10 on the north and south between mile markers 93 & 94. Approximately 18 acres are north of
I-10 and approx. 44 acres are south. The site lies approximately 1,979 linear feet west from the
NWC of Indian School Rd & 411th Ave. in the Tonopah area. Indian School Rd serve as the most
improved frontage of and access to the parcel. There is no improved access to the site north of
the freeway. The site is undeveloped.
2.
The IND-2 IUPD overlay will limit entitled uses to light industrial and general commerce uses that
are compatible with Tonopah Arlington Area Plan’s Mixed-Use designation. This may include an
industrial or commercial park, light industrial, distribution and potentially light manufacturing or
assembly. The southern 600-feet of the southern parcel will be reserved for non-industrial
warehouse uses in support of distribution operations, their employees and neighborhood area
retail needs. Large retail and strip centers are discouraged; strip flex industrial or stand-alone
service-oriented businesses are encouraged. The IUPD prohibits adult-oriented businesses,
marijuana-oriented businesses and operations, paraphernalia stores (smoke shops), dancehalls,
and residential uses. Uses that will allow overnight sleeping will be limited to hotels or motels.
The zone change does not include a precise plan of development. Future phases will require a
plan of development for site development.
3.
The entire site is under unified ownership but bisected by the freeway. The northernmost portion
of the site (north of the freeway) is bounded on the north by Campbell Rd., a public right-of-way
that has not been accepted by the County, 415th Ave alignment to the west, I-10 to the south and
413th Ave alignment to the east. The southern portion of the site south of the freeway is bounded
by Indian School Rd to the south, 415th Ave alignment to the west, I-10 to the north and 413th Ave
alignment to the east. Freeway access is via interchange at 411th Ave.
4.
Several drainageways bisect the property north to south. A Plan of Development (POD) has not
been included with this request but will be subsequently processed for administrative approval
prior to construction permitting by individual developers or potential tenants. During this process,
users will be required to resolve their water and wastewater services at the time of plan of
development application. The site is not presently served by any utilities and there is not any utility
service agreement in place.

Adopted Plans:
8.
Tonopah / Arlington Area Plan (Adopted September 6, 2000): The Area Plan designates the site
and the area around the interchange of the I-10 and 411th Ave as mixed use. The proposed zone
change will facilitate the uses the Area Plan contemplates such as light industrial parks, business
parks, hospitals, retail and residential. However, residential uses are not permitted with the
proposed IUPD. Development is subject to the availability of water and sewer services anticipated
to be provided by Global Water in the future.
Public Participation Summary:
9.
The applicant met the requirements for on-site posting and initial notification of all property
owners within 300-feet of the site and area stakeholders. The applicant held two neighborhood
meetings to discuss the proposal. On May 28, 2025 at 6pm at the Saddle Mountain RV Center
recreation center, a neighborhood meeting organized STOPP (Save Tonopah Oppose Poultry
Plant) with the applicant where it was requested that a commercial neighborhood village concept
be considered to serve neighborhood retail needs. Around June 8th, the applicant met with Daniel
Blackson, the chair of STOPP, on site to discuss development trends in the area. A third meeting
with Mr. Blackson on June 20, 2025 at Black Bear Restaurant to discuss narrative changes. A
fourth with Mr. Blackson and Doris Heisler at the Saddle Mountain RV Center on October 21, 2025
to discuss narrative changes. A different advocacy group called Tonopah Residents Opposed to
Incorporation, primarily representative of the area around 339th Ave and the I-10, did not support
commercial strip-retail development on the property due to perceived increases in traffic. The
applicant met with the chair, Keith Kronback, and more than a dozen neighbors at Wild West Café
in Tonopah on October 5, 2025, then again with Mr. Kronback at a casino on October 19, 2025 to
discuss narrative changes. The result of these meetings instituted changes to the original
submittal where provisions for commercial development were made for the southern parcel as
well as preventing retail strip centers to prevent increases in traffic. The applicant modified the
`proposal based upon input received from the two neighborhood group’s requests for future land
uses. Tonopah Residents Opposed to Incorporation continues to oppose the request with
inclusion of provisions for C-2 allowed uses, with concerns about commercial uses attracting
transient interstate traffic that conflicts with the rural atmosphere. The memo mentions a lack of
support from the group towards the incorporation of Tonopah and perceived influence from one
of the prominent neighborhood advocates for STOPP, which have no bearing on the proposal by
the applicant. Staff notes there have only been two letters submitted by the neighborhood groups,
and no other public comment has been received on the request.
Outstanding Concerns from Reviewing Agencies:
10.
The Arizona Game and Fish Department provided detailed memo dated March 13, 2025. The
department documented the presence of species in the area including the Western Burrowing
Owl and the Sonoran Desert Tortoise. The letter offered several recommended measures to allow
reasonable development of the site in a minimally impactful manner.
Z250003
Page 8 of 11
Staff Analysis:
11.
Industrial zoning is appropriate adjacent to the I-10 major logistics corridor. The proposed IUPD
overlay is compatible with the area land use plan designation of mixed use and the area
transformation from rural farm to industrial farming, evidenced by the nearby Hickman’s Egg
Ranch. The preference for commercial development within the first 600’ of the site from Indian
School right-of-way is requested according to public participation feedback. There is a lack of
neighborhood commercial services in this area of Tonopah (411th Ave and Indian School) that
does not solely cater to interstate travelers. The site follows the industrial development spurred
by the development of Hickman’s Egg Ranch, an industrial egg farm, opposite Indian School Rd.
The rezone with IUPD intends to restrict uses of the site by prohibiting heavy industrial uses, adult-
oriented uses, and residential uses. The IUPD would also ensure that future development under a
POD would be dependent on the provisions of public water and public sewer service, anticipated
to eventually be served by the Global Water.
Recommendation:
12.
Staff recommends the Commission adopt a motion recommending that the Board of Supervisors
approve Z250003 subject to the following conditions ‘a’ – ‘k’:
a.
Development of the site shall be in substantial conformance with the Zoning Exhibit

served by sewer, uses on the site shall only be those acceptable to the Maricopa County
Environmental Services Department (MCESD) that can be accommodated by septic
systems. A public water system shall be required prior to establishment of any non-
residential use that requires potable water. In lieu of pre-annexation service agreement
the developer must provide a ‘will serve’ letter from the certificated water and sewer
provider(s).

The following IUPD standards shall apply:
1.
Restricted Uses: Residential, adult oriented businesses, dancehalls, marijuana
oriented establishments, paraphernalia (smoke & vape) shops
2.
The first 600’ measured from ultimate right-of-way for Indian School Rd shall be
preserved for uses allowed in C-2, including stand-alone light industrial, service-
oriented business, uses allowing retail combined with outdoor storage screened and
secured from public view; uses listed in g.1 above are prohibited in this area

Administrative approval of a Plan of Development will be required prior to approval and
issuance of construction permits to develop and establish the uses of the site. Prior to
issuance of a building permit, written confirmation will be required from the emergency
fire protection jurisdiction having authority that the facility has been designed in
accordance with their regulations and requirements, and that emergency fire protection
service will be provided to the facility. Prior to issuance of the certificate of occupancy,
local fire protection jurisdiction review and approval will be required.

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.

This application is to specify zoning for future development and does not include a
Plan of Development.
PND Engineering Plan Review (DPR, FCD and PND Transportation) has reviewed the
1st submittal of the Zone Change application routed for review on February 16, 2025,
and has no objections subject to the following conditions:
1. Without the submittal of a precise plan of development, no development approval
is inferred by this review, including, but not limited to number of proposed building
lots/units, drainage design, access and roadway alignments. These items will be
addressed as development plans progress and are submitted to the County for
further review and/or entitlement.
2. Indian School Road is a MCDOT maintained roadway classified as an arterial
roadway. The MCDOT R/W requirement for arterial roadways is 55-65 feet (half-
width). Dedication of R/W (0 feet existing) may be required across the frontage of
the subject premises to provide the required R/W, as determined otherwise by
MCDOTPlanning@maricopa.gov.
See https://www.mcdot.maricopa.gov/744/Right-of-Way-Dedications for more
information on the dedication process.
If dedication is required, applicant is required to provide, at applicant’s expense,
an American Land Title Association(“ALTA”) Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance
showing title vested in Maricopa County, a political subdivision of the State of
Arizona.
Page 2 of 2
3. Campbell Road (north of I-10) is “public right-of-way” that has not been accepted
by the County; and is therefore not maintained by the County. Development and
maintenance of the roadway would be the responsibility of the developer(s).
4. A Traffic Study/Statement must be submitted with future entitlement (POD)
application(s). See following link to MCDOT Traffic Impact Manual. (RDM 7.1.4)
https://www.maricopa.gov/DocumentCenter/View/303
5. Off-site roadway improvements, including additional R/W dedication(s) may be
required pending the MCDOT approved Traffic Impact Study/Statement.
6. The above comments do not include identification of utilities or underground
facilities within or adjacent to the required right-of-way that may have prior rights
and/or require relocation.
7. Given the site’s proximity or access to I-10, the applicant should inquire of any
concerns with ADOT via their red-letter process (email redletter@azdot.gov)
8. Engineering review of re-zone cases is conceptual in nature. All development and
engineering design shall be in conformance with Section 1205 of the Maricopa
County Zoning Ordinance; Drainage Policies and Standards; Floodplain
Regulations for Maricopa County; MCDOT Roadway Design Manual; and current
engineering policies, standards and best practices at the time of application for
construction.

RE:
Rezoning from Rural-43 to Industrial Ind-2 IUPD, Case No. Z250003
Dear Mr. Johnson:
The Arizona Game and Fish Department (Department) appreciates the opportunity to review
Maricopa County Case No. Z250003 (Project), a Zone Change with Overlay request for a parcel
approximately 63 acres in size located at the interchange of 411th Ave and Interstate 10 in
Maricopa County, Arizona. The Department understands that the proposed rezoning would
change the zoning from Rural-43 to Industrial Ind-2 IUPD, for the purpose of building a light
industrial park for distribution and potentially light manufacturing or assembly. The Project site
is broken up into two parcels, with the north parcel located just west of 411th Avenue and north
of the I-10, and the south parcel at 411th Avenue and Indian School Road, both in largely
undisturbed Sonoran desert scrub habitat.
Under Title 17 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, the Department, by and through the Arizona
Game and Fish Commission, has jurisdictional authority and public trust responsibilities to
conserve and protect the state fish and wildlife resources. In addition, the Department manages
threatened and endangered species through authorities of Section 6 of the Endangered Species
Act and the Department’s Section 10(a)(1)(A) permit. It is the mission of the Department to
conserve and protect Arizona's diverse fish and wildlife resources and manage for safe,
compatible outdoor recreation opportunities for current and future generations.
For your consideration, the Department offers the following comments and best management
practices for minimizing impacts to wildlife and their habitat that may be affected by
development of this area based on the agency’s statutory authorities, public trust responsibilities,
and special expertise related to wildlife resources and recreation:
● A variety of Arizona Species of Greatest Conservation Need (SGCN), such as the
Sonoran desert tortoise and western burrowing owl have the potential to occur within the
Project area. Project proponents may want to consider conducting surveys for these
Rezoning Case No. Z250003
March 13, 2025
Page 2
species. If wildlife are encountered during Project activities, the Department recommends
moving them out of harm’s way, no more than 0.25 mile outside the Project boundary
within similar habitat. Please note that the Arizona State Wildlife Action Plan was
recently updated, and the Department has an interactive website, Arizona Wildlife
Conservation Strategy , that includes the most recent list of SGCN to help navigate and
1
identify conservation opportunities. Additionally, the Project site falls within the 10(j)
designated, experimental nonessential population area of the endangered Sonoran
Pronghorn. While it is not anticipated that pronghorn will be present in the area due to the
lack of suitable habitat, if pronghorn are detected during Project activities please notify
the
USFWS
and
the
Department’s
Sonoran
Pronghorn
Program
Lead
2
(rgardner@azgfd.gov) as soon as possible.
● To the extent feasible, the Department recommends maintaining the ephemeral washes
that occur in the Project area in their natural state without fencing or other barriers to
wildlife movement. These washes serve multiple functions in the ecosystem, including
landscape-level conveyance corridors for wildlife movement.
● The Department’s Wildlife Compatible Fencing Guidelines provide information on how
3
fencing impacts wildlife, ways to design fencing to prevent wildlife entanglement and
impalement, and to ensure wildlife movement is not restricted. Department personnel are
available as resources to help determine appropriate fencing design and layout that will
achieve its objective while reducing impact on wildlife.
● If trenching or digging of large holes is necessary, the Department recommends
trenching/digging and backfilling crews work closely together to minimize the amount of
open trenches/holes at any given time. Where trenches/holes cannot be back-filled
immediately, the Department recommends escape ramps be constructed in each hole and
at least every 90 meters in trenches. Escape ramps can be short lateral trenches or wooden
planks sloping to the surface. The Department recommends that slopes be less than 45
degrees (1:1) and trenches/holes that have been left open overnight be inspected and
animals removed prior to backfilling.
● Artificial lighting could impair the ability of nocturnal animals to navigate (e.g., owls,
migratory birds, bats, and other nocturnal mammals), and may affect wildlife behavior
and populations (Davies et. al. 2013 ). The Department recommends using only the
4
minimum amount of light needed for safety. If feasible, “warmer” narrow spectrum
lighting (amber, orange, red) is wildlife-friendly and should be used as often as possible
to minimize the number of species affected by lighting. It is also beneficial that all
lighting is shielded, canted, or cut to minimize the amount of upward shining light.
● To minimize the potential introduction or spread of exotic invasive species, including
aquatic and terrestrial plants, animals, insects, and pathogens, the Department encourages
the Applicant to take precautions to wash and/or decontaminate equipment before

recommendations on how to control them. To view a list of documented invasive species
or to report invasive species in or near the Project area, visit iMapInvasives , which is a
7
national cloud-based application for tracking and managing invasive species.
● The Department recommends landscaping with native drought-tolerant species that
represent the natural surrounding landscape and can help support wildlife and pollinator
species in the area while reducing dust and erosion.
The Department would also like to encourage private developers and Maricopa County to use the
Arizona Online Environmental Review Tool administered by the Department’s Heritage Data
8
Management System (HDMS) as part of their standard operating procedure for review of new
construction and development. This tool is a useful resource that provides baseline information
on special status species such as Arizona’s Species of Greatest Conservation Need and Species of
Economic and Recreational Importance. The Department entered this Project as an example
(please see the attached HDMS report).
The Department appreciates the opportunity to provide input on Maricopa County Case No.

Disclaimer:
1. This Environmental Review is based on the project study area that was entered. The report must be
updated if the project study area, location, or the type of project changes.
2. This is a preliminary environmental screening tool. It is not a substitute for the potential knowledge
gained by having a biologist conduct a field survey of the project area. This review is also not intended to
replace environmental consultation (including federal consultation under the Endangered Species Act),
land use permitting, or the Departments review of site-specific projects.
3. The Departments Heritage Data Management System (HDMS) data is not intended to include potential
distribution of special status species. Arizona is large and diverse with plants, animals, and
environmental conditions that are ever changing. Consequently, many areas may contain species that
biologists do not know about or species previously noted in a particular area may no longer occur there.
HDMS data contains information about species occurrences that have actually been reported to the
Department. Not all of Arizona has been surveyed for special status species, and surveys that have been
conducted have varied greatly in scope and intensity. Such surveys may reveal previously
undocumented population of species of special concern.
4. Arizona Wildlife Conservation Strategy (AWCS), specifically Species of Greatest Conservation Need
(SGCN), represent potential species distribution models for the State of Arizona which are subject to
ongoing change, modification and refinement. The status of a wildlife resource can change quickly, and
the availability of new data will necessitate a refined assessment.
Locations Accuracy Disclaimer:
Project locations are assumed to be both precise and accurate for the purposes of environmental review. The
creator/owner of the Project Review Report is solely responsible for the project location and thus the correctness
of the Project Review Report content.

Recommendations Disclaimer:
1. The Department is interested in the conservation of all fish and wildlife resources, including those
species listed in this report and those that may have not been documented within the project vicinity as
well as other game and nongame wildlife.
2. Recommendations have been made by the Department, under authority of Arizona Revised Statutes
Title 5 (Amusements and Sports), 17 (Game and Fish), and 28 (Transportation).
3. Potential impacts to fish and wildlife resources may be minimized or avoided by the recommendations
generated from information submitted for your proposed project. These recommendations are preliminary
in scope, designed to provide early considerations on all species of wildlife.
4. Making this information directly available does not substitute for the Department's review of project
proposals, and should not decrease our opportunity to review and evaluate additional project information
and/or new project proposals.
5. Further coordination with the Department requires the submittal of this Environmental Review Report with
a cover letter and project plans or documentation that includes project narrative, acreage to be impacted,
how construction or project activity(s) are to be accomplished, and project locality information (including
site map). Once AGFD had received the information, please allow 30 days for completion of project
reviews. Send requests to:

Project Type: Development Within Municipalities (Urban Growth), Commercial/industrial (mall) and associated
infrastructure, New construction or expansion
Project Type Recommendations:
Minimization and mitigation of impacts to wildlife and fish species due to changes in water quality, quantity, chemistry,
temperature, and alteration to flow regimes (timing, magnitude, duration, and frequency of floods) should be evaluated.
Minimize impacts to springs, in-stream flow, and consider irrigation improvements to decrease water use. If dredging is a
project component, consider timing of the project in order to minimize impacts to spawning fish and other aquatic species
(include spawning seasons), and to reduce spread of exotic invasive species. We recommend early coordination with
Project Evaluation Program for projects that could impact water resources, wetlands, streams, springs, and/or riparian
habitats.

RE: Case #: 2250A03
Dear Mr. |ohnson,
STOPP, Inc is a non-profit organization "committed to protecting the communal and
social well being for the Community of Tonopah..." We previously commented on
Case # 225AA03, which is a request to amend zoning from Rural-43 to IND-2 IUPD at
locations NEC of 415th Avenue and Indian School Road and a second parcel at SEC of
41sth Avenue and Campbell Avenue. The intent of the zoning amendment is to
construct Logistics and Distribution Warehousing.
0n May 28,2025 a group representing STOPP and the community met with Ed
Reichenberg of Clear Vista Management who represents the property
owners/developers. Mr. Reichenberg proposed a modification to the zoning
amendment where the south acreage and Indian School Road frontage of Parcel
506-34-011-B would be zoned commercial.
With this change STOPP Board supports Case # 2250003. However, there must be a
traffic study and solutions to the following concerns:
. The additional amount of truck traffic it would generate
. The intersection of Indian School Road and 47Ls. Avenue isn't constructed to
accommodate semi-truck turning and
. Backup of traffic southbound 411th Avenue I-10 overpass because trucks are
waiting to fuel at the Pilot gas station.

Dear Mr. Daniel Johnson,
As residents of Tonopah, we respectfully submit our comments regarding the proposed zone change, case
#Z250003, and the subsequent resubmittals. Most concerning is the proposed use of the 600-feet of the
southern parcel for C-2 (commercial).
Despite some wording adjustments in the latest resubmittal, the core issue persists. During our community
meeting with Ed, it was made clear that a significant number of Tonopah residents strongly oppose the
introduction of any commercial shopping development at this location. This concept is not aligned with the
character or desires of our community. Its proximity to I-10 would inevitably attract transient traffic,
conflicting with our rural atmosphere.
We are also concerned about the disproportionate influence of a single vocal resident who, despite
representing only a small minority, appears to be shaping the direction of this proposal. This individual has a
documented history of pursuing initiatives contrary to the will of Tonopah residents. This includes repeated,
unsuccessful lawsuits against Hickman Farms (tellingly, that disdain for Hickman’s is echoed throughout the
zoning proposal), as well as current persistent efforts to incorporate Tonopah despite the fact that the
measure has already been rejected by the resident voters.
It is troubling that this resident has taken steps to personally guide Ed around Tonopah, potentially skewing
Ed’s perception of community sentiment. This pattern of behavior—misrepresenting the broader community
while advancing personal agendas—has caused considerable frustration among residents who feel sidelined
in the process.
We urge Arizona Planning & Development to recognize that the proposed C-2 zoning does not reflect the
wishes of the majority in Tonopah. We do not wish to see this shift to C-2 at this intersection which, rather
than benefiting locals, would serve as a magnet for Interstate travelers. It simply is not the right location for
community shopping and would be detrimental to the rural atmosphere of the area.
We thank you in advance for taking this all into account. Please don’t accept a C-2 zoning change which
would have a huge negative impact on our community’s rural nature.
Thank you. FB, Tonopah Residents Opposed to Incorporation,™

Re: Case #Z250003, Tonopah Logistic Center
Dear Mr. Daniel Johnson,
I am in support of the filing for the Tonopah Logistic Center zoning case #250003. It has
been a pleasure working with Ed Reichenberg and I wish the owners well in developing
their property.
Unfortunately, you have received a letter dated October 26, 2025 from other Tonopah
residents that refer to me without mentioning my name, which include comments that do
and do not have anything to do with the zoning case. Since the comments are now public
record, I would like to offer this feedback:
•
In my opinion, the Tonopah Logistic Center is aligned with the Tonopah – Arlington
Area Plan.
•
The voice, siz, and residency of STOPP members that previously made comments is
little different than the Tonopah Residents Opposed to Incorporation that signed on
to their letter. Their voice as well as every other voice in Tonopah should be heard.
•
I don’t have a history of pursuing initiatives contrary to the will of Tonopah
residents. I moved to Tonopah in 1978 and have been very involved in the
community. The following shows my support of the Tonopah community and their
support of me:
o Saddle Mountain Unified School District Governing Board (30+ years)
o I was selected by Maricopa County Planning & Development (1996) to
participate in a group to discuss the possibility of a private prison in
Tonopah. The effort evolved into a Tonopah Transition Team, who
presented a concept of a Tonopah community council to the community.
o The community agreed to create a community council and I served on the
first Tonopah Valley Community Council and continued to serve for five
more years.
o I was a board member of the Tonopah Fire District non-profit organization
until it dissolved.
o I’m currently a board member of the Arizona Fire & Medical Authority
Foundation (non-profit).
o I’m currently a member of American Legion Post #137 Post Executive
Committee.
o I am and have been Tonopah Precinct Committeeman (elected) for many
years and often a State Committeeman.
o I’ve recently been elected to Chairman of the STOPP non-profit organization
•
There haven’t been unsuccessful lawsuits against the Hickman Family Farms, Inc.
Hickman Family Farms, Inc was sued by three entities for the Tonopah egg
production plant being a nuisance. There were three lawsuits and Hickman Family
Farms, Inc. settled all three out of court. I was plaintiff in nuisance lawsuit CV 2017-
11959 where Hickman Family Farms, Inc. agreed to five settlement terms. The
lawsuit was successful.
•
The Tonopah egg production plant has changed the trajectory of development at
411 Avenue and Interstate 10. It is not longer the “gateway to Maricopa County” as
once envisioned in the 1990’s by the Tonopah Community Valley Council and
Maricopa County Planning & Development.
•
I was part of the group sponsored by the Tonopah Community Valley Council that
studied incorporation of the community. Eventually an incorporation election was
held March 10, 2009 and failed 60%-40%. The Tonopah community has grown and
there have been many changes. I believe that it’s timely to have another
incorporation election so the community can make a decision. I advocated for an
incorporation election – nothing more.
•
I don’t have a “disdain” for Hickman’s. The operation of the Tonopah egg production
plant has been problematic. (See https://tonopahstopp.com/?ckattempt=1 )
•
I didn’t take “steps to personally guide Ed around Tonopah, potentially skewing Ed’s
perception of community sentiment.” Ed Reichenberg invited me and he asked me
for feedback. Mr. Reichenberg is a very seasoned professional and there is no way
that I could skew his perception of the community sentiment.
I’m very dedicated to the Tonopah community and look forward to its positive
development.
Sincerely
Daniel E. Blackson

I have been a Land owner/resident in Tonopah sense 1998 and have seen a lot of changes some for the
good some for the bad.
3
I started a FB Group in Opposition of Incorporation ( Tonopah Residents Opposed to Incorporation,™ )
4
which has about 633 members where we are also in Opposition of this I attached a letter with about 75
names on it as most people will be unable to attend this meeting so we felt a group letter was needed
A lot has changed sense our letter was first sent to PND as Hickman's Egg Farm has sold to a very large
company and no one knows what the new owners (JBS) are going to do as they are the Largest Beef
producer and the 2nd largest pork , Chicken producers and own a very large Trucking company in the US.
So if the 600ft is Zoned commercial and a shopping area is put in it will Plug access up to right around to
300 Homes west of this location on Indian school Rd as this is the only main access road to the Homes
and Hickman's and will cause many safety Issues for our School Buses with the added Traffic from
travelers stopping as I10 is right there.
We Feel if any Type of Mall for shopping should be around the area of Salome HWY and WintersBurg Rd
as this area is more for Commercial and is in center of Tonopah not at the fare end of Tonopah where
most locals do not go to as it is closer to go to Buckeye for 50% of the locals. As the area that we are
talking is the least residential area out here and is mainly Agricultural and should remain that way as that
industry is the largest suppler of Jobs in the area other then APS.
Thank you Keith Kronback.
