July 27, 2022 Z2022050 Page 1 of 2 Report to the Board of Supervisors Prepared by the Maricopa County Planning and Development Department Board Hearing Date: July 27, 2022 Case #/Title: Z2022050 – Crown Castle 879296 Snow Supervisor District: 4 Applicant/Owner: Michael J Campbell, Campbell A&Z, LLC on behalf of Crown Castle / Samuel D Clark Revokable Trust & Jennifer Clark Revocable Trust Request: Modification of Condition of a Special Use Permit (SUP) for an existing Wireless Communications Facility in the Rural-190 zoning district to extend the validity of the permit for an additional 25 years Site Location: Generally located 1¾ miles south of the SEC of SR 74 & 211th Ave. in the Morristown area Site Size: Approx. 2,466 sq. ft. County Island Status: N/A Additional Comments: There are no outstanding concerns from reviewing agencies. The existing WCF is a 250’ tall lattice tower. It has been in place for 26 years. This amendment will extend the SUP validity period for an additional 25 years to 7/27/2047. Commission Recommendation: On 6/16/22, the Commission voted 7-0 to recommend approval of Z2022015 subject to conditions ‘a’ – ‘f’: a. Development of the site shall be in substantial conformance with the Narrative Report entitled "Special Use Permit Modification of Condition Project Narrative", consisting of 7 pages, dated March 9th, 2022, and stamped received March 11th, 2022, except as modified by the following conditions. b. This special use permit is valid for a period of 25 years and shall expire 25 years from the date of BOS approval, or upon termination of the use for a period of 90 or more days, whichever occurs first. All site improvements associated with the special use permit shall be removed within 90 days of such expiration or termination of use. July 27, 2022 Z2022050 Page 2 of 2 c. Noncompliance with any Maricopa County Regulation shall be grounds for initiating a revocation of this Special Use Permit as set forth in the Maricopa County Zoning Ordinance. d. 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, and at the time of expiration of the Special Use Permit, 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, or the expiration of the Special Use Permit, 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 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. e. All necessary building permits must be obtained for proposed changes and any existing unpermitted changes to the site. f. The following Maricopa County Planning & Development Engineering condition shall apply: 1. 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.

Z2022050 Page 1 of 4 Report to the Planning and Zoning Commission Prepared by the Maricopa County Planning and Development Department Case: Z2022050 – Crown Castle 879296 Snow Hearing Date: June 16, 2022 Supervisor District: 4 Applicant: Michael J Campbell, Campbell A&Z, LLC on behalf of Crown Castle Owners: Samuel D Clark Revokable Trust & Jennifer Clark Revocable Trust Request: Modification of Condition of a Special Use Permit (SUP) for an existing Wireless Communications Facility in the Rural-190 zoning district to extend the validity of the permit for an additional 25 years Site Location: Generally located 1 ¾ miles south of the SEC of SR 74 & 211th Ave. in the Morristown area. Site Size: Approx. 2,466 sq. ft. Density: N/A County Island: No County Plan: White Tank / Grand Ave Area Plan – Rural Densities (0-1 d.u./ac) Municipal Plan: City of Surprise – Neighborhood Planning Designation Municipal Comments: None received to date Support/Opposition: None known Recommendation: Approve with conditions Z2022050 Page 2 of 4 Project Summary: 1. The purpose of this request is to amend condition “h” of the current SUP for a Cellular Communications Tower originally approved under Special Use Permit Z96-78 (and as amended by subsequent zoning cases Z2001157 and Z2010017 for minor antennae modifications) to allow for an additional 25 years of operation. The Special Use Permit area consists of approximately Approx. 2,466 sq. ft. 2. A TAC meeting was waived due to the nature of the request that did not require nor proposed any changes to the site. The existing 250’ tall co-located tower houses multiple commercial carriers including Sprint/T-Mobile Wireless. Access to the site is off 211th Ave and technician parking is provided with a dust-proof material near the entrance to the site. Outdoor lighting present on the property adheres to MCZO Section 1112.

City of Surprise General Plan – Rural Neighborhood Character Area Z2022050 Page 3 of 4 Public Participation Summary: 7. In anticipation of the subject Modification of Conditions, the applicant re-posted the site in the same general locations as was the case for the previous SUP case, in addition to sending written notification to area stakeholders. Staff sent notice of the hearing to all property owners within 300’ of the property and published legal ad in accordance with the MCZO. As of the writing of this report, staff is unaware of any public support or opposition to the application. Outstanding Concerns from Reviewing Agencies: 8. N/A. Staff Analysis: 9. The purpose of the request is to extend the Special Use Permit expiration date for an additional 25 years. No other site changes are proposed at this time. The tower is not located within a scenic corridor and does not adversely impact surrounding properties. Staff supports this request. Furthermore, this type of development will continue to provide wireless service in surrounding rural communities and travelers along SR-74. Recommendation: 10. Staff recommends the Commission adopt a motion recommending that the Board of Supervisors approve Z2022050 subject to the following conditions ‘a’ – ‘f’: a. Development of the site shall be in substantial conformance with the Narrative Report entitled "Special Use Permit Modification of Condition Project Narrative", consisting of 7 pages, dated March 9th, 2022, and stamped received March 11th, 2022, except as modified by the following conditions. b. This special use permit is valid for a period of 25 years and shall expire 25 years from the date of BOS approval, or upon termination of the use for a period of 90 or more days, whichever occurs first. All site improvements associated with the special use permit shall be removed within 90 days of such expiration or termination of use. c. Noncompliance with any Maricopa County Regulation shall be grounds for initiating a revocation of this Special Use Permit as set forth in the Maricopa County Zoning Ordinance. d. 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, and at the time of expiration of the Special Use Permit, 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, or the expiration of the Special Use Permit, 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 Z2022050 Page 4 of 4 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. e. All necessary building permits must be obtained for proposed changes and any existing unpermitted changes to the site. f. The following Maricopa County Planning & Development Engineering condition shall apply: 1. 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.
