Recommendation: 
Approval  
 
Discussion:  
 
This text amendment will amend the Maricopa County Zoning Ordinance (MCZO), Chapter 8 
C-2 Intermediate Commercial Zoning District, Section 804, Article 804.2.  
 
The purpose of this text amendment is to include language to the existing use of ‘hospitals’ to 
include ‘and other group care facilities’. The amendment would clarify additional ancillary 
hospital and/or medical related land uses and/or other types of institutional and group care 
facilities to be permitted within the C-2 zoning district. This change is a clarification that arguably 
lessens regulatory burden. 
 
Proposed changes are shown in legislative edit format. New language to be added is 
underscored in blue font. There is no language to be deleted.
