1. Engineering review of planning and/or zoning cases is for conceptual design only. 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.
2. Detailed Grading and Drainage Plans must be submitted with the application for Building
Permits.
3. Avondale Boulevard is within the jurisdiction of the City of Avondale. The applicant will be
responsible for coordinating with the City to review any traffic impact, right-of-way dedication,
permitting or roadway improvement requirements.
4. For sites located within the County’s Urbanized Area, a Storm Water Pollution Prevention
Permit (SWPPP) from the County will be required prior to issuance of any construction
permits. This does NOT preclude the requirement to obtain a Notice of Intent to Discharge
(NOID) from the State (ADEQ), as may be required.
5. Retention basins with stormwater depths exceeding one foot shall provide one foot of
freeboard.
6. All retention basins shall drain within 36 hours per County requirements.
e. Approval of a plan of development will be required prior to approval and issuance of
construction permits to develop and establish use 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
Formal Meeting Minutes

to issuance of the certificate of occupancy, local fire protection jurisdiction review and
approval will be required.
f. Prior to precise plan of development approval, the applicant shall provide the Maricopa
County Planning and Development Department with an executed pre-annexation service
agreement with the City of Avondale that identifies the detail for when the proposed project
will be annexed and/or the provision of water and sewer service. In lieu of a pre-annexation
service agreement, the developer must provide a ‘will serve’ letter from the certificated water
and sewer provider, unless otherwise approved by Maricopa County Environmental Services
Department.
g. All outdoor lighting shall be in conformance with the provisions listed in Section 1112 of
the Maricopa County Zoning Ordinance. Any outdoor lighting shall be placed so as to reflect
light away from any adjoining rural or residential zoning district.
h. Any amendments to the zone change shall be processed as a revised application in
accordance with Maricopa County Zoning Ordinance requirements.
i. Noncompliance with any Maricopa County Regulation may be grounds for initiating a
revocation of this zone change per the requirements and processes 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 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, 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.

Chairman Sellers asked Tom Ellsworth, Planning and Development Director, and
Darren Gerard, Planning Division Manager, to come forward.

Mr. Ellsworth gave a brief overview of this item, that focused on a change of land use.
The company has operated on this land for decades as a legal non-conforming use,
which means the use predates the zoning that is currently in place. The expansion of
the business requires the change that is being requested.
Mr. Ellsworth continued with the explanation and an additional slide.
There was an audience disruption due to the “10 minutes deadline for speaker slips”,
and a person was removed from the meeting.
Mr. Ellsworth said some of the infrastructure concerns raised by the City of Avondale
were mitigated by stipulations D, E, F. He asked if the Board had any questions.
Supervisor Hickman asked if there had been any feedback from the City of Avondale.
Mr. Ellsworth said the City of Avondale asked for mixed use and it was important to meet

Approve the Interagency Service Agreement (ISA) and acceptance of grant funds to the
Sheriff’s Office from the Arizona Department of Health Services for the Unlawful Medical
Marijuana Trafficking Project AGR2024-014 in the amount of $300,000 for the award period
beginning the date the agreement is signed and terminating five years from that date
(approximately March 2029). This Agreement may be terminated by either party upon (60)
working days written notice to the other party; however, any advanced funds are
reimbursable as well as the cost of resources/materials acquired specifically for the project
absent an agreement to purchase.
The funding award is re-occurring and has been awarded to the Sheriff’s Office the past five
(5) years. There is no match requirement. The Sheriff’s Office indirect cost rate for FY24 is
16.72%, applicable to the award amount of $300,000 less capital expenses of $50,000 for
an indirect cost base of $250,000 and indirect costs of $41,800.00 which will be absorbed
by the General Fund. There are no future or ongoing contributions required after the grant
period ends.
This is not a mandated function although it supports the MCSO public safety mandate. The
objective of this project is to provide funding to MCSO for equipment, training and overtime
(OT) services of existing staff with responsibility for the regulation of activities within the local
jurisdiction that fall outside of AMMA (Arizona Medical Marijuana Act) and under A.R.S. Title

registered nonprofit medical marijuana dispensaries by persons that are representing
themselves to cardholding patients and the public as acting within the scope of AMMA; as
well as services related to the dispensaries or cultivation sites, including activities at
dispensaries or cultivation sites that fall outside of and/or violate the Arizona Medical
Marijuana Act. The benefit to the citizens is the disruption of illicit drug trafficking in Maricopa
County and the State of Arizona resulting in a more safe and secure community. This is a
competitive award.
These revenues are not local revenues for the purpose of the constitutional expenditure

request would allow Animal Care & Control to meet medical and surgical obligations without
any additional funding and structurally balance Fund 572 during FY 2024. Increased

and would be repurposed towards related medical goods and services.
This request has no budget impact on the County.

suspected vacancies and recommended nominations is on file in the Clerk of the Board’s
Office and retained in accordance with Arizona State Library, Archives, and Public Records
(ASLAPR) approved retention schedule.
(C-21-24-051-X-00)
John Cain, resident, asked to get clarification of what “suspected vacancies” meant.
Zach Schira, Executive Director, came forward and explained that the term “suspected”
is used because the board has not yet voted to confirm the stated vacancy.
Supervisor Galvin confirmed this process applies to all counties in Arizona. Supervisor
Gates asked where the names originate so the board can make the “vacancy”
determination? Mr. Schira stated the Political Party Chairman checks a box that
indicates the reason for the vacancy. The Party Chairman then signs off on the
document and the information is forwarded to the Board for approval, per Arizona
Revised Statute.
Supervisor Gallardo commented on the fact that it has been done this way for 30 years.
Mr. Schira said the Board of Supervisors relies on the party chair for accurate
information.
Luke Portell, resident, denied the accuracy of the previous answer given regarding the
Precinct Committeemen vacancy process.
Blue Crowley, resident, explained the process of being elected as a PC and the Board
has the authority to approve the vacancy list provided by the party Chairman, both
Democrats and Republicans. He asked who is checking on the PC elections that are
currently underway and how many positions will be vacant because people did not run
for the position.

Chairman Sellers asked the Clerk if there was anything to report regarding Public
Comment email responses. The Clerk said there were three emails received on various
subjects and all have been shared with board offices.
The Clerk said there were 23 Public Comment speaker slips received.
Stephanie P. stated she is new to the board meeting process and appreciated the
request for decorum. She said she does not know what the rules and regulations are
and would like them explained. She asked numerous times to be told by the board what
the rules are.
Jen Pokorski, County Manager, said the rules of decorum were passed as a Resolution
today and were covered on item 71. They are also posted on the Clerk’s webpage.
Florence Smith, resident, said she wanted to explain how election results can be wildly
wrong even if the machines are working perfectly. Her explanation included human
error, and other ways the votes were miscounted. She recommended hand count with
no machines.
Barbara Ratti, resident, objected to the inference that the people in the room (We the
People) are the reason for death threats to the Board of Supervisors. She said the
people present at these meeting do not make threatening comments, they just come to
tell the truth about the unconstitutional practices of the elections.
Andy Patton, resident, referenced a handout that he provided and said there is a lot of
stuff going on behind the scenes that the board has no clue about. He talked about
Trump, Biden, and Obama and supposed Executive Orders, election interference, and
cybercrimes.
Dianne Barker, resident, said she felt blessed with the good weather. She said she
supports the call to the public and the first amendment. She talked about the importance
of ground transportation, that she would like the referendum to move forward, and
multimodal is a good thing.
Sheryl S. from Miami, Florida stated that 2020 is not over and she has come here to
see what was happening.
Erin J and William Jackson were called on but did not come forward.
Cara Jackson came forward and said they threw her dad out because he interrupted
the meeting. She talked about the open borders and how that is bad for everyone.
Mike Peterson, resident. thanked the people present for speaking up. He continued with
a bible reference and said opposition to the Board is what the people should do. He
stated that Michelle Ugenti-Rita will win the District 2 seat in November.
Luimar Zibetti Garza, from Miami, Florida came forward. She said she is elderly, of the
LG community, and homeless but not hapless. Ms. Garza read a portion of a Head Start
program agenda item from the March 27, 2024 meeting.
Lauri Baroni stated she was disappointed in this board. She said she became a Precinct
Committeeman to see if there was fraud going on. In the last election, she worked as a
clerk and at her polling station, she was told not to count the ballots that were dropped
off but to just put them into a black bag. Ms. Baroni wanted an explanation.

Luke Portell, resident, commented on a jurisdiction charade. He came from Illinois and
has worked in politics since he got here and has covered border issues and claims to
know what is going on. He said all the problems start with the Board not the GOP.
Veronica Cochoran, said she comes in peace and love and hope. Her hope is that the
Board will do the right thing and say no to wrongdoing.
Jodi Brackett, said she wanted to check some boxes of all the items that are not being
done. She listed all the issues she felt were treasonous.
Noel Roberts, resident, started by thanking law enforcement for being present. She
stated that a webinar is available for this meeting but there is no picture, only audio.
She thanked the board for paying attention to the public speaker.
Lezley Shepherd, resident read an excerpt from the Arizona Revised Statute about
sexual exploitation of children. She held up a sign that featured explicit pictures like the
handout she provided to the board. She finished with a bible reference.
Christy Narsi, Phoenix Chair and National Chapter Director of Independent Women’s
Network and President of Freedom Academy Charter School. She spoke about public
libraries, public schools, inappropriate books, and the effect it has on children’s
development. Parents have a right and a responsibility to educate their children and to
protect their innocence.
Jaimie Keddington was called on but was not present.
Merissa Hamilton, resident, talked about a recent arrest of a basketball coach charged
with sex crimes and how it relates to inappropriate books that promote that. Ms.
Hamilton also commented on the decorum Resolution and how it limits the number of
agenda items that the public can speak on. She stated this rule is anti-democratic and
anti-Americian.
Bob Branch, Commissioner for the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board. He said the
last meeting he attended was the one that abruptly concluded, and he was disappointed
by that action. He said that action created a wall between the Board and the people.
Mr. Branch stated that with the presence of so much security, the Board seemed to fear
the people and he would like to see less animosity.
Nancy Wilming, resident, commented on the explicit books that are available to
children. She stated that as a lifetime library card holder, she knows the importance of
libraries as a haven for kids. The libraries now have inappropriate books that are
marketed to young children, and she objects to this shift.
Blue Crowley, resident, talked about the need for more bus routes for Litchfield Road
and Queen Creek Road where there is so much congestion and so little public
transportation to mitigate it. Mr. Crowley wanted to know why the Board is not more
involved in this.
