Re: 
Request for Continuance of a Major Comprehensive Plan Amendment on +/- 1,728-
gross-acres (CPA2024004) pursuant to Arizona Revised Statute § 11-805(J) 
Dear Chairman Galvin:  
We respectfully request a continuance of Major Comprehensive Plan Amendment (“Major 
CPA”) case number CPA2024004 from the April 9, 2025 Board of Supervisors hearing date to the 
May 21, 2025, hearing date. The Major CPA request was originally set to be heard by the Board of 
Supervisors on December 11th, 2024, and was continued pursuant to Arizona Revised Statutes § 11-
805(J). The purpose of the continuance was to allow the Major CPA to be heard concurrently with the 
companion rezoning request, case number Z240006. That original purpose remains the same through 
this request for continuance. Should our rezoning case not be ready for hearing by May 21, 2025, we 
will ask for an additional continuance.   
The Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community, and subsequently the Fort McDowell 
Yavapai Nation, asked us to continue the Major CPA to allow the Major CPA and rezoning requests 
to be heard concurrently by the Board of Supervisors. The alignment of the Major CPA and rezoning 
cases will also allow continued discussions with the Community, Nation and all interested stakeholders 
regarding the proposals.  
Your attention to this matter is greatly appreciated. If you have any questions, please do not 
hesitate to reach out to me directly. 
Very truly yours, 
 
Wendy Riddell
