RECOGNITION OF FRAN MCCARROLL, CLERK OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
Recognition of Fran McCarroll, Clerk of the Board, for years of dedicated service as the Clerk
of the Board of Supervisors. (C-06-21-316-X-00)
~ This item was heard prior to item #4. ~
Chairman Hickman shared some comments regarding Ms. McCarroll’s tenure at the County. He
made note of the following:
The Clerk of the Board is the only County Officer who is appointed, not elected.
Formerly, Ms. McCarroll taught Junior and Senior High School – Science, English and
Journalism
She has served 21 Supervisors during her time at the County.
Ms. McCarroll oversees the Office of the Clerk of the Board
One accomplishment she is proud of is the automation of the agenda system from hand-
carried paper to the current electronic system.
Ms. McCarroll has become the repository of all things “Maricopa” such that many times
she is the first person called regarding research
Ms. McCarroll is known as a dedicated public servant
The Chairman commented that in her coming retirement he hoped Ms. McCarroll would be able to
enjoy traveling and time with her husband and family.
Chairman Hickman then read a letter from Melissa Buckley, Vice President-Elect of the Arizona
County Clerks Association. Ms. Buckley commented on her leadership and dedication to the
organization and her willingness to share with others from her knowledge and experience.
The Chairman then introduced a short video showing pictures of Ms. McCarroll and a number of
the Clerk of the Board’s staff who have served in the Office over the past years.

Supervisor Gallardo commented that he first got to know Ms. McCarroll years ago when he worked
as an employee in the Elections department. He said she has always been great to work with and
has set the “gold standard” for Clerks of the Board. He thanked her for her service, her friendship,
and the way she has been always available to do research and answer questions.
Supervisor Chucri noted that Ms. McCarroll had served at the County during some difficult times
but helped to keep things intact during those times. He noted that her position is like a lynch pin of
the Board’s responsibilities and the Board could count on her to do things the right way and on
time. He likened her work to a slow and steady hand that continues to provide guidance. He stated
that the procedures she had developed are the groundwork for stability going forward.
Supervisor Gates said that Fran is the institutional knowledge of the Board of Supervisors over
several decades. He noted that he enjoyed some of the conversations about past events in the
County. One responsibility of the Board of Supervisors is filling vacancy appointments of which
there have been many over the past few years. He recalled a conversation with her regarding an
appointment to the Board of Supervisors about why there is a state law that a subsequent appointee
must be of the same political party. He commented that transparency in all the Board does is so
important and Ms. McCarroll is the person who makes sure that proper notice is given. Supervisor
Gates also commented that he was glad to hear that Ms. McCarroll would be helping with the
transition to the new Clerk.
Supervisor Sellers agreed with the previous comments and thanked Ms. McCarroll for the
assistance given to him when he was recently appointed to the Board of Supervisors. Some may
not realize how large and complex Maricopa County government is. He said it had been a pleasure
to work with her and wished her all the best in the new adventures ahead.
Chairman Hickman recounted his experience when he was applying for the appointment to the
position in District 4. He noted that Ms. McCarroll was able to give him a good overview of duties
and responsibilities. He added that conversations with Ms. McCarroll always had a calming
influence because she spoke from experience. He reminded the other members that Ms. McCarroll
was going to help with the transition to a new Clerk, noting the importance of the position.
The Chairman invited Ms. McCarroll to say a few words.
Ms. McCarroll thanked this Board and all of the previous Board members that she had the
opportunity to serve over the past years. She noted a special thanks to Supervisor Betsey Bayless
saying that “maybe she saw a spark in me and said, maybe she’ll grab this opportunity and run
with it.” Ms. McCarroll said she hoped she had lived up to Ms. Bayless’ expectations.
Similarly, Ms. McCarroll noted that she wanted to express a thanks to Ed Wolfe who was the Deputy
Clerk when she was appointed. He was an excellent mentor, sharing his wealth of experience in
the Office. She then commented there are actually thousands of people to whom she could offer
a sincere thank you, but there is not enough time in a day to list them all.
Ms. McCarroll thanked the many County employees that have been her help and support as
teachers and friends along the way, noting how special they were to her and their willingness to
provide service every single day. The other 14 Arizona County Clerks have helped her to grow
and stretch and learn. They are an incredible support group, and they are ones who understand
the word, “Clerkdom.”
On a personal note, Ms. McCarroll thanked her sister, Terri, for all of her love and support
throughout her entire life. She also said hello to her children and their families – Amy McCarroll
Dunn, husband Jeremy and grandchildren Liam and Fiona in Atlanta. Also, she greeted her son,
Jeff in Flagstaff and granddaughter Penelope Evangeline. She noted that her children were a very
special “bright spot” in her life.

Ms. McCarroll then noted that 29 ½ years previously she met a gentleman named Dean Wolcott
who introduced himself as the Clerk’s lawyer. After he left her office she questioned if, as a “Clerk,”
did she need a lawyer? But she came to learn how much a Clerk needs a lawyer. She thanked all
of the attorneys in the County Civil Division who, over the years, allowed her to “pester" them with
questions which helped her to grow in her knowledge of the Office. She then noted that 15 years
after meeting Mr. Wolcott, she married him...and still pesters him with questions.
Ms. McCarroll then offered thanks to all of the employees past and present within the Clerk’s Office.
She noted that she is often the one who sits in the meetings, and is the face of the Clerk’s Office,
however, she said, “I am never alone. It is never just me. It is every one of the spectacular people
I have worked with. The “Clerk of the Board” is really 13 people.” Any kudos really go to the
wonderful “Clerkettes.”
She stated that she is thankful to be moving to the position of Clerk Consultant and hopes that she
will be a mentor who is as helpful as those who mentored her. As a final word, she commented
that she wanted to thank God by sharing the following verse, “You are my servant. I have chosen
you and not cast you off. Fear not for I am with you. Be not dismayed, I am your God. I will
strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”
The Chairman presented Ms. McCarroll with a plaque and said that flowers and a clock awaited
her in her office.

PET SHOWCASE BY MARICOPA COUNTY ANIMAL CARE AND CONTROL -
PRESENTACIÓN DE ANIMALES DOMESTICOS POR EL DEPARTAMENTO DE
CONTROL Y CUIDADO DE ANIMALES
Monica Gery of Maricopa County Animal Care and Control presented a picture of Luna,
a 7-year-old boxer/cattle dog mix who is considered a “senior.” Ms. Gery stated that
Luna is very sweet and loves to play in kiddy pools. She commented that the Bissell
foundation was sponsoring a special event regarding adoption fees for cats, dogs and
kittens, and she invited all listeners to visit pets.maricopa.gov to see available pets.
Chairman Hickman asked if there were any changes or corrections to the agenda. Ms. McCarroll
responded that there were none.

a. Development of the site shall be in substantial conformance with the Site Plan entitled
“Arizona Water Company”, consisting of 1 full-size sheets, dated 21 August 2020, and
stamped received 28 August 2020, except as modified by the following conditions.
b. Development of the site shall be in substantial conformance with the Narrative Report
entitled “White Tanks Operation Center”, consisting of 16 pages, dated 15 June 2020, and
stamped received 24 August 2020, except as modified by the following conditions.
c. The following Planning Engineering condition(s) 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.
2. Engineering review of planning and/or zoning cases is for conceptual design only and
does not represent final design approval nor shall it entitle applicants to future designs that
are not in conformance with Section 1205 of the Maricopa County Zoning Ordinance and
Drainage Policies and Standards; Floodplain Regulations for Maricopa County; and the
MCDOT Roadway Design Manual.
3. Detailed Grading and Drainage Plans showing the new site improvements must be
submitted for the acquisition of building permits.
d. The applicant/property owner shall submit a ‘will serve’ letter for fire protection services
for the project site. A copy of the ‘will serve’ letter shall be required as part of the initial
construction permit submittal.
e. Noncompliance with any Maricopa County Regulation shall be grounds for initiating a
revocation of this Zone Change as set forth in the Maricopa County Zoning Ordinance.
f. 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.
g. 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/Plan of Development. The Zone
Change/Plan of Development enhances the value of the property above its value as of the
date the Zone Change/Plan of Development is granted and reverting to the prior zoning
results in the same value of the property as if the Zone Change/Plan of Development had
never been granted.
h. The following IND-1 IUPD standards shall apply:
1. Height: 40’ max building height. 64’ max height for single radio tower.
2. Screening: 8’ high CMU block wall.
3. Use of the site is limited to those that can be accommodated with on-site septic system
as acceptable to the Maricopa County Environmental Services Department. (C-44-21-152-

VULCAN SOLAR PROJECT
Case #: CPA2019014
Supervisor District: 5
Applicant / Owners: Candela Renewables LLC / Arizona State Land Department, Elizabeth
E. Shepler, Illian Tachkov
Request: Major Comprehensive Plan Amendment (CPA) to change the land use
designations in the Old U.S. Highway 80 Area Plan from Rural and Large Lot Residential to
Utilities. CPA approval is by Resolution.
Site Location: Generally located between the Arlington Canal Service Rd. alignment to the
east, 333rd Ave. to the west, Arlington Canal Rd. alignment to the south and the Union Pacific
Railroad to the north in the Tonopah-Arlington area
Commission Recommendation: On 11/5/20, the Commission voted 5-1 to recommend
approval of CPA2019014 subject to conditions ‘a’ – ‘d’:
a. Development and use of the site shall be in general conformance with the narrative report
entitled “Vulcan Solar Project” dated September 29, 2020 and stamped received October 1,
2020, except as modified by the following conditions.
b. Development and use of the site shall be in general conformance with the land use exhibit
entitled “Maricopa County Comprehensive Plan Amendment Project Site Land Use Exhibit”
dated September 29, 2020 and stamped received September 30, 2020, except as modified
by the following conditions.
c. The land use designation of utilities approved as part of case CPA2019014 shall be subject
to any time limit set forth in the subsequent zone change, and shall change back to the
existing Rural and Large Lot Residential designations if the zone change reverts back to
Rural-43.
d. The applicant is proposing to develop a photovoltaic solar electric generating facility which,
pursuant to the Maricopa County Comprehensive Plan, necessitates a change in the land
use designation from Rural and Large Lot Residential to Utilities. The proposal by the
applicant represents a comprehensive approach to the subject property and will allow the
applicant to pursue the proper entitlements pursuant to state law so that they can lawfully
operate in unincorporated Maricopa County. This particular proposal is an appropriate plan
for the property and is consistent with the overall intention of the comprehensive plan.
However, in the event that the zone change or a zone change phase for this particular
proposal is not approved by Maricopa County Board of Supervisors (BOS) within five (5)
Formal Meeting Minutes

Page 9 of 89
years from the date of Board approval of this comprehensive plan amendment, this
amendment shall no longer be effective as the planning justification for this comprehensive
plan amendment will no longer be present. In such instance, a change of the land use
designation from Utilities to Rural and Large Lot Residential will occur, and all
comprehensive plan land use maps shall be altered to reflect as such, because this
represents superior long-range planning by Maricopa County. (C-44-21-153-X-00)
Ms. Pokorski recommend taking each item of the remaining items individually.
The Chairman asked her to continue with the presentation on item #7, Vulcan Solar
Project.
Ms. Pokorski noted that the Vulcan Solar Project is located in District 5. The map shown
indicates the project is in the Tonopah-Arlington area. This request is a major
comprehensive plan amendment because it is over 640 acres. Comprehensive plan
amendments are only heard once each year. An amendment changes the land use
designation from that which was previously adopted. In this case, the change would
be to a Utility Land use designation which could but will not necessarily allow for a future
solar electric generating facility. That is what the applicant is proposing for the future
use for that land, however, a zone change would also be required prior to the
construction of the facility. This is just the Comprehensive Plan amendment.
The Planning Commission recommended approval for several reasons. There are
several other approved amendments for solar energy in the area (a map showed these
facilities). In addition, there is a solar energy generating business in the same area.
According to the goals of this Comprehensive plan, generating renewable energy
developments is one goal, and discouraging land uses that would put a strain on water
resources or would have a heavy impact on roads is another aspect of the plan. Solar
energy developments meet these goals.
Ms. Pokorski noted that the department had received several letters of opposition. The
concerns center around a negative effect on property values as there are some existing
rural homes and rural lots to the west of this proposed site. Also, on the site there is
an extinct cinder cone which is a landmark in the area so there is a concern about the
aesthetics of this project.
There was one letter of support from a homeowner who felt the project would have a
positive economic impact, and a letter of support from the Buckeye Valley Chamber of
Commerce. All of these letters were provided to the Board in their packets. Ms.
Pokorski stated the matter before them today is only the Comprehensive Plan
amendment. This does not give the applicant any right to develop the sight at this time.
That decision would come at the next step. That application would have details
including what the applicant might plan to do about the cinder cone.
The Chairman asked if Supervisor Gallardo has any questions at the time. The
Supervisor responded that it is important to note that this is only the Comprehensive
Plan amendment and that the zoning change would be a separate action. Ms. Pokorski
commented that one person (Mr. Reid King) in opposition sent an email stating that he
wanted to speak only if there was new material presented. The applicant (Mr. Ferrera)
is also on the phone.
Mr. Ferrera thanked the Board for the opportunity to speak. He stated he would make
three points. 1) Re: is this appropriate use of the land in this area? He said that this
area is part of the old US 80 planning area. There are other similar land use plans in
the immediate area. 2) He stated that what they are proposing represents an
improvement to the Comprehensive Plan. Additionally, this project would provide
Formal Meeting Minutes
Wednesday, December 9, 2020
Page 10 of 89
hundreds of construction jobs. 3) The Developer is committed to open communication
with all stakeholders.
Mr. Ferrera had sent slides about the project which were projected on the screens for
the Board to review. The first slide showed other projects in the area and the adjacency
to the old Highway 89 plan. The second slide reviewed the applicant’s outreach
activities including working with the Arizona State Land Department. He then outlined
their public outreach with efforts which exceeded the requirements which included
mailers, posted signs, a virtual meeting and a website providing information about the
project. They also met with those in opposition either in person or in virtual meetings.
Mr. Ferrera’s next slide showed a compilation of the negative comments or concerns
they heard regarding the project. He noted some of the concerns including a question
about installing fencing along the road, however, he stated that others may be on the
phone and they could state their concerns.
The next slide dealt with information about the installation of solar panels – they can be
either non-ground-penetrating or ground-penetrating. Some are built on concrete
foundations which do not penetrate the ground. He noted that all things including
weather conditions are taken into account when installing solar panels.
Regarding the cinder cone, Mr. Ferrera stated that it would still protrude over 100 feet
above the installation and approximately 90 acres on the south side of the cone would
remain undeveloped. Some features of the cinder cone are not located on the area of
proposed development. Mr. Ferrera also showed three slides with pictures looking
toward the cinder cone from different directions.
Mr. Reid King, area resident, then addressed the Board. He commented that he had
spoken directly with the applicant. Although he appreciated the pictures on the slides,
however he felt that the pictures did not do justice to the cinder cone. He felt that the
area would be “decimated” by this development. The current zoning is rural residential,
and he felt it should continue to be so designated. The other solar arrays which have
been discussed are to the west of this area. He felt this was the appropriate place for
such installations.
Mr. King also reference the fact that as Supervisor Gallardo noted, this was only the
request to change the Comprehensive Plan and a later request would be needed for
the zoning change. However, Mr. King felt that the criteria required for a
Comprehensive Plan amendment have not been met. The applicant cannot show that
they have complied with the terms to amend. If this change passes, then there is a
minimum of 5 years when a variety of other uses could come to this area including
some industrial uses. Finally, he noted that he had sent a memorandum outlining his
objections. He urged the Board to not approve this requested change in the
Comprehensive Plan.
Mr. Ferrera indicated that he would be open to answering any questions.
Supervisor Gallardo indicated that he knew his staff have worked extensively on this
case. He stated that he would like to meet with Mr. King regarding his concerns and
possibly drive out to view the area.
Motion to concur with the Commission recommendation of approval by resolution was
made by Supervisor Steve Gallardo, seconded by Supervisor Bill Gates
Ayes: Clint Hickman, Jack Sellers, Steve Chucri, Bill Gates, Steve Gallardo

use designation from Rural and Large Lot Residential to Utilities. The proposal by the
applicant represents a comprehensive approach to the subject property and will allow the
applicant to pursue the proper entitlements pursuant to state law so that they can lawfully
operate in unincorporated Maricopa County. This particular proposal is an appropriate plan
for the property and is consistent with the overall intention of the comprehensive plan.
However, in the event that the zone change or a zone change phase for this particular
proposal is not approved by Maricopa County Board of Supervisors (BOS) within five (5)
years from the date of Board approval of this comprehensive plan amendment, this
amendment shall no longer be effective as the planning justification for this comprehensive
plan amendment will no longer be present. In such instance, a change of the land use
designation from Utilities to Rural and Small Lot Residential will occur, and all comprehensive
plan land use maps shall be altered to reflect as such, because this represents superior long-
range planning by Maricopa County. (C-44-21-154-X-00)

C-44-20-101-M-00
Case #: TA2018002
Supervisor District: All Districts
Applicant: Earl & Curley
Request: Text Amendment to amend Chapter 2, Definitions; Section 501, Article 501.2.4;
and Section 601, Article 601.2.3 of the Maricopa County Zoning Ordinance (MCZO) relating
to Group Homes
Commission Recommendation: On 3/12/20, the Commission voted 4-3 to recommend
approval with modification to text language submitted from the applicant directly to

at least 300 feet in width, or’ within Article 501.2.4.a.
Continuance Request: Applicant has requested a continuance to the December 9, 2020
hearing date. (C-44-21-091-X-00)
Ms. Pokorski indicated that this item is a request to amend the zoning ordinance as it
relates to group homes. The request has sparked the County to commission a study
for this requested amendment. The staff has reviewed the draft of this study which is
recommending some changes to the County’s zoning ordinance. Therefore, staff is
now working on drafting their own text amendment regarding this issue. The applicant
has now requested to work with the County on this text amendment, therefore he has
agreed to continue this item until April 7, 2021.

WATER TRUCKS (CONT. FROM 11/4/20)
Case #: TA2019006
Supervisor Districts:
All Districts
Applicant / Owners: Commission-initiated
Request:
Text Amendment – Water Trucks
Commission Recommendation: On 10/8/20, the Commission voted 6-0 to recommend
approval of TA2019006 amending MCZO, Art.501.2.10.r (Alternative #8 of the Commission
staff report) with the following language:
10.
Home occupations, subject to the following:
r. Notwithstanding the above, a home occupation for an employee of a water hauling
company where a maximum of two water trucks that are registered, operable and actively
used in the conduct of the business by the residents may be parked at their residence on a
lot in a rural zoning district and within an area not served by a public water system provided
the truck is available for emergency response for fire suppression (registered with the local
fire district or department), and provided said lot is not located within 500’ of the boundary of
another lot housing such a truck. (C-44-21-106-X-00)
Ms. Pokorski stated that this item is a staff-driven text amendment that would allow
water trucks to park in rural areas where there is not a public water system. She noted
that Supervisor Chucri had done some work on this issue and this case which was
continued from November 4, 2020. He has met with some members of the community.
Supervisor Chucri thanked the Planning staff for working on this issue. He noted that
there have been some good stakeholder meetings. He commented that he did not want
to rush to adopt this amendment, but rather wanted to make sure the wording would be
correct as it is like having to “un-ring a bell” if the wording isn’t exactly right or turns out
to be overly prescriptive. He indicated that they would be continuing to have
stakeholder meetings and there could be a possibility that there would not be a need
for a text amendment.
Supervisor Gates thanked Supervisor Chucri for leadership, noting that there are similar
issues involving water trucks in his district as well. In response, Supervisor Chucri
commented that what may work in one area may not work in a different District. He
noted the importance of water in these two regions of their Districts. This is why they
want to take a comprehensive look at the entire issue before recommending any text
amendment.

The West Valley RV, Auto & Boat Storage shall notify future occupants/tenants that they are
located near a military airport with the following language:
“You are located within the territory in the vicinity of a military airport, however aircraft flying
in this area are authorized to fly as low as 1,500 feet above the ground. You will be subject
to direct overflights and noise from Luke Air Force Base jet aircraft in the vicinity.
Luke Air Force Base executes an average of approximately 165 overflights per day. Although
Luke’s primary flight paths are located within 20 miles from the base, jet noise will be
apparent throughout the area as aircraft transient to and from Barry M. Goldwater Gunnery
Range and other flight areas.
Luke Air Force Base may launch and recover aircraft in either direction off its runways
oriented to the southwest and northeast. Noise will be more noticeable during overcast sky
conditions due to noise reflections off the clouds.
Luke Air Force Base’s normal flying hours extend from, 7 a.m. until approximately midnight,
Monday through Friday, but some limited flying will occur outside these hours and during
most weekends.
For further information, please review the Luke Air Force Base’s website at
www.luke.af.mil/urbandevelopment or contact Maricopa County Planning and Development
Department.”
d. All habitable buildings built on this site shall be constructed to attain a noise reduction
level as per ARS § 28-8482(B).
e. Sound attenuation measures shall be incorporated into the building design to achieve a
45-decibel (average day/night weighted) interior noise level due to the proximity of the
adjacent railroad tracks.
f. Prior to approval of the Plan of Development all of the parcels that make up the site shall
be combined as one property with a newly assigned APN.
g. Prior to approval of a Plan of Development a re-plat of Tract ‘D’ and Lot 21 of the Churchill
South No. 2 subdivision to vacate the public alley and half-width right-of-way of Mitchell Rd.
on the site shall be recorded.
h. Prior to approval of a Plan of Development a MCDOT Right-of-Way Reduction Waiver

503-48-004 for proof of ownership.
j. The CUPD shall limit use of the site to a commercial storage facility or other use acceptable
to the Maricopa County Environmental Services Department to have wastewater disposal
via on-site septic system.
k. The following C-3 CUPD standards shall apply:
1. Minimum front yard setback of ten feet regardless of adjacent zoning districts;
Formal Meeting Minutes
Wednesday, December 9, 2020
Page 21 of 89
2. Maximum height for fences of ten feet;
3. Minimum landscape buffer on the site along Highway US 60 of ten feet;
l. Noncompliance with any Maricopa County Regulation shall be grounds for initiating a
revocation of this Zone Change as set forth in the Maricopa County Zoning Ordinance.
m. 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.
n. 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 never
been granted. (C-44-21-117-X-00)
Ms. Pokorski introduced the item saying that it is a request to change the zoning from
C-2 and rural 43 to C-3 CUPD. The site is 37 acres within the Wickenburg Highway
Scenic Corridor. She identified the surrounding properties’ zoning designations. She
continued by describing the proposed development which would be shaded structures
surrounded by a block wall topped with decorative wrought iron. She identified 66
letters of opposition, and where those letters came from on the map. She indicated that
the requisite number of opposition letters or comments were not within the specified
boundary to trigger a super majority vote. She also identified adjacent properties where
there were homes or vacant lots.
Chairman Hickman clarified that this property was in the vicinity of Wittman, not
Morristown. Ms. Pokorski concurred.
Ms. Pokorski continued by saying that most of the opposition center on the idea that at
they wanted residential in this area. There was a concern that a truck stop could be
constructed here. Additionally, they felt that this did not conform to the Wickenburg
corridor guidelines such as the setback requirements.
To further inform the Board, Ms. Pokorski stated that both staff and the commission are
recommending approval of this application. She listed reasons for this recommendation
including:
The location of the site is at the intersection of a major highway and a collector
street.
Part of the property is already zoned commercial
The property across the highway is slated for industrial development
The area to the south near residential will be buffered by a 100-foot-deep
retention area
Storage properties are a less intensive use than other commercial uses in that
they do not generate a significant amount of traffic, nor do they have a number
of employees.
The use is consistent with uses expected to be seen along this corridor.
Formal Meeting Minutes
Wednesday, December 9, 2020
Page 22 of 89
Some additional stipulations are being recommended to deal with the neighbor’s
concerns. Also there is there a recommendation to not approve a variance to the Scenic
Corridor guidelines for the requested 10-foot setback. The setback would be the 25-
foot setback with native plants. She then read into the record the additional stipulations
which are being recommended for the Board to consider. These would be amendments
to conditions a, j and k.
a.
Development of the site shall be in substantial conformance with the
Narrative Report entitled “West Valley RV, Auto and Boat Storage”,
consisting of four pages, dated July 6, 2020, and stamped received August
31, 2020, except as modified by the following conditions. Within 30 days
of Board approval a revised narrative and site plan shall be submitted
that is acceptable to the Maricopa County Planning & Development
Department reflecting the following conditions of approval.
j.
The CUPD shall limit use of the site to a commercial storage facility or
other use acceptable to the Maricopa County Environmental Services
Department to have wastewater disposal via on-site septic system. The
CUPD shall prohibit adult-oriented-uses, billboards, medical
marijuana and marijuana related uses, truck stops, and overnight
stays, lodging, and camping.
k.
The following C-3 CUPD standards shall apply:
1.
Minimum front yard setback of ten feet regardless of adjacent
zoning districts except for a 25’ landscape setback along the
Highway;
2.
Maximum height for fences of ten feet;
3.
There shall be a 25’ landscape buffer along the ultimate right-
of-way of the Highway improved with indigenous landscaping
acceptable to staff of the Maricopa County Planning &
Development Department. The landscape vegetation must be
maintained in perpetuity. Minimum landscape buffer on the site
along Highway US 60 of ten feet; and
4
All outdoor lighting must be fully shielded so that illumination
is directed downward at an angle 20% below the horizontal
plane, thus preventing light trespass onto and illumination
of adjacent properties.
Chairman Hickman called on the applicant for comments. The applicant, Mr. Glenn
Davis said he would address any questions of the Board. He said that he agreed with
the added lighting stipulations and the setback recommendations.
The Chairman indicated that he would give the applicant additional time to respond
after the other speakers to address any questions that may arise.
Mr. William Powell said he was speaking for himself and his wife, both 20-year veterans.
They live on a one-acre plot just to the west of the subject property. He said he opposed
the request as they moved to that area to enjoy the views and the peace and quiet. He
mentioned that they enjoy all the aspects of the night sky and he often photographs the
night sky and even has “star parties” for local astronomy clubs. He stated that the
Formal Meeting Minutes
Wednesday, December 9, 2020
Page 23 of 89
asphalt, lighting and metal roofing would destroy the views in the night sky. The
emanating heat would cause distortions to any photographs.
Mr. Powell also noted that the proposed facility would provide little to no benefit to the
surrounding residents including providing very few jobs. He noted that many residents
live on properties which are large enough for store their own recreational vehicles.
Finally, he noted that the building proposed did not conform to many of the provisions
of a scenic corridor guide nor the Wickenburg General plan 2025.
Ms. Candy Harris stated that she felt this request constituted a spot rezoning. There is
no other C-3 in the area; all is C-2 RUPD 43. This change would set a precedent which
would allow others to ask for the same zoning. She said, “C-2 is retail. C-3 goes to a
whole other level.” She felt that some of the people owning vacant parcels around this
parcel would like to see C-3 because many of them sent in letters to approve the
change. She stated that C-3 would allow those owners to increase the price of their
properties, also noting that many are owned by LLC’s where none of the principals live
in the area. She felt this shows preference for the developer over the residents. She
felt this would be 37-acre area that would look like a prison. It is not consistent with the
Wickenburg Scenic corridor.
Ms. Harris noted that Wittman is growing. She felt many would like to keep the area
rural, or at least semi-rural.
Mr. Paul Kudel, resident, expressed a concern that many people did not know the
whereabouts of Wittman, nor do they know much about the area. He stated that it is a
residential area with many custom homes, many worth more than $400,000. He said
that he decided to move to this area, as many others did, as they wanted a rural
atmosphere away from commercial areas. Many want a peaceful area and they want
“neighbors,” not a parking lot.
Mr. Kudel commented that he had spoken to the applicant and viewed the other similar
developments as was suggested. That development is located in a commercial area,
not a residential area. He stated that he thought either that RV center was located in
an already establish commercial area, or it was the catalyst for the area to become
commercial. He agreed with a previous speaker that this would be spot zoning, and
that those who had written letters in favor commented that this development would bring
more commercial development to the corridor, and the applicant noted that this would
bring future business. He also voiced a concern about what would happen if this
business failed. He said it could be that there would simply be a huge area of asphalt
left on that land near their homes. He asked the Board to deny this zoning change
request.
Chairman Hickman asked the applicant if he wanted to respond to any comments that
had been made by the speakers. Mr. Davis commented that there was already some
commercial zoning along the corridor which could lead to several developments rather
than just one development as he is suggesting. He also noted that this development
may kickstart other commercial developments as was the intent of this corridor. He
said that the requested development would be relatively quiet with the entrance directly
off the highway. He stated that he had no intention of ever developing a truck stop.
Ms. Pokorski reiterated that there would need to be the 25’ setback rather than the

The Chairman noted the various aspects of this corridor including that it is a well-
traveled roadway. He stated that he is well acquainted with the Wittman area and the
location of this proposed development. He said that this location offers a good place
for the storage of RV’s without having to come all the way into Phoenix. He commented
on the continued growth that moves outward to the west valley and the need to be
mindful of property rights for all property owners. He added that this property could be
a catalyst for other businesses, but he was glad to see the restrictions in the proposed
amendments to the stipulations which would prohibit certain uses. He stated that the
P&Z staff and his staff have worked hard on this application to deal with a number of
the concerns. Now the applicant has agreed to the proposed stipulations such that now
he is supportive of the application whereas he was not so with the original plan. He
also noted that the City of Surprise controls the area across the street and the County
does not control that zoning. Surprise has deemed that area to be industrial. He then
asked if there was a motion regarding this case.
Supervisor Sellers made a motion to approve this application as proposed with the
amendments as stated in the staff report and read into the record earlier in the meeting.
Supervisor Gates seconded the motion.
Ayes: Clint Hickman, Jack Sellers, Steve Chucri, Bill Gates, Steve Gallardo

EMPLOYEE LEAVE POLICY EXCEPTION - DONATION OF VACATION TIME
Approve an exception to the donation of vacation time cap of “one qualifying event per year
(rolling year from the start of the event)” as outlined in the Employee Leave Policy (HR2415).

the approval, the employee scheduled a different qualifying event that resulted in the need
for a donation of vacation time a few weeks before the rolling year reset.
If approved, the employee would be allowed to use donated vacation time starting 10/27/20
instead of 11/13/2020. The employee needing this exception is on file in the Office of the

AMENDMENT TO INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT WITH CITY OF PHOENIX
FOR THE LEAD BASED PAINT HAZARD REDUCTION PROGRAM
Approve an amendment to Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) between City of Phoenix
(COP), Lead Based Paint Hazard Reduction and Maricopa County by and through its
Department of Public Health (MCDPH), Office of Family Health Services to provide continued
funding for the Lead Based Paint Hazard Reduction (Lead Hazard) program. The Lead
Hazard program provides education, blood testing of children and case management. In
accordance to Part C, Section 2, Budget and/or Consideration, the budget period is January
1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, for a budget amount not-to-exceed $95,820 and a
cumulative amount of $339,664 for the contract term beginning January 1, 2018. In addition,
there is an In-Kind budget in the amount of $29,346. This is the final year of the contract.
This is an on-going award and has been received for several years. The grant requires an
in-kind match but does not require an ongoing cash contribution. This is not a mandated
function but provides a benefit to the citizens through the testing, education and case
management of families in the City of Phoenix’s Lead Grant program. The grant award
renewal amendment was not competitive.
This Grant deviates from County Policy A2505 and does not allow for full indirect cost
reimbursement, but a maximum of 10% indirect cost reimbursement as delegated in the IGA.
MCDPH indirect rate for FY2021 is 18.8%. The full indirect costs are estimated at $16,377
of which $8,711 is recoverable and $7,666 is unrecoverable. Costs not covered by the grant
will be subsidized by the Public Health indirect cost pool.
Grant revenues are not local revenues for the purpose of the constitutional expenditure
limitation, and therefore expenditure of the revenues is not prohibited by the budget law.
This Agreement does not alter the budget constraining expenditures of local revenues duly
adopted by the Board pursuant to A.R.S. §42-17105. The overall grant budget will be
adjusted as necessary to accommodate this grant through a future reconciliation. Funding
for this grant will be provided by City of Phoenix. (C-86-18-041-3-01)

INCREASE IN FLEET FOR MARICOPA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH
OFFICE OF VITAL REGISTRATION
Maricopa County Department of Public Health – Office of Vital Registration’s (OVR) Indigent
Decedent Services Program requests a one-time addition to fleet for execution of program
activities. Added to the fleet will be the purchase of a mid-size, SUV estimated at $31,500
(including taxes and fees). The vehicle will be used by the Office of Vital Registration (OVR)
for official business activities. Funding for the vehicle is Department of Public Health (860),
Public Health Fee Fund (265) Non-recurring Non-Project (NRNP).
Maricopa County Department of Public Health – Office of Vital Registration’s Indigent
Decedent Services Program requests to purchase a vehicle for activities related to the
COVID-19 response mission. The County Indigent Decedent Services Program (CIDS) does
not own a vehicle to meet the daily needs of executing CIDS activities. Since the CIDS
program transitioned from the Public Fiduciary to OVR, the program employees have been
either utilizing personal vehicles or borrowing a vehicle from one of OVR’s other sites/units
if available. The OVR has not ceased any aspect of its in-person, mail and or online
mandated services across all five of its sites to the community and throughout the county so
its need for continued travel remains. Therefore, the OVR does not have an existing vehicle
to permanently allocate for the CIDS use.
The CIDS uses a vehicle to move mission equipment and supplies, retrieve and transport
decedent personal property, collection and reimbursement for disposition services rendered
and to accept/sign for custody of each decedent cremains being released to the CIDS
program for interment at the White Tanks Cemetery. This program activity requires travel
throughout Maricopa County in support of the following activities: Moving equipment,
supplies and property between various locations performing indigent decedent related
services in support of Maricopa County’s mandated and contractual requirements. This
includes but is not limited to travel to/from healthcare facilities, funeral establishments,
financial institutions and White Tanks Cemetery. Acquisition of this vehicle will allow the
CIDS program to support its mandated and contracted partners perform the timely
disposition of indigent and abandoned decedents who pass away in Maricopa County and
ensure that Maricopa County and its partners do not experience another surge in its
resources and decedent capacity.

vehicle. (C-86-21-095-X-00)

These actions will have a County-wide net impact of zero and they do not alter the budget
constraining expenditure of local revenue duly adopted by the Board pursuant to A.R.S. §42-
17105
A total remodel of the existing space, currently a shell within the larger health center, is
planned and will be specific to the needs of Maricopa County’s Office of Vital Registration
(OVR) and Women’s, Infants and Children (WIC).
OVR and WIC services will be accessible to patients coming to the health center as well as
to the general public. Joint services in this location should greatly benefit county programs
as the health center offers services such as urgent care, pediatrics and family medicine to a
similar population facilitating a wrap-around of many needed services.
WIC will be closing its Thunderbird location and moving to this space, resulting in a
substantial savings on monthly rent expense.
No funds will be expended until the lease is approved and executed by the Board of
Supervisors.
This will be a new public facing Office of Vital Registration location including 5 full-service
customer/stakeholder windows projected to serve thousands monthly. This will also include
a fully functioning Women, Infants and Children clinic with the potential caseload of over
5,000 women, infants and children served per month. (C-86-21-099-X-00)

Supervisors'/County Manager's summary of current events - Resumen de temas de
actualidad de los Supervisores/Administrador del Condado
Chairman Hickman called on Ms. Joy Rich, County Manager, stating he had neglected
to call on her regarding comments regarding Ms. McCarroll at the beginning of the
meeting.
Ms. Rich stated that she felt she was in a way additionally representing former County
Managers who had worked with Ms. McCarroll and they had all held her in high regard.
She noted that over the past months during this difficult time she felt that Ms. McCarroll
was always available to deal with issues and that they were handled with the utmost
professionalism. Even on weekends and after hours, Ms. McCarroll was available to
work on special issues.
In response, Ms. McCarroll noted that she had inadvertently skipped over her note to
thank Ms. Rich when she “choked up” over comments about her husband. She stated
Formal Meeting Minutes
Wednesday, December 9, 2020
Page 82 of 89
that Ms. Rich has been more than available during this difficult time. She said that they
had worked together in different capacities over the years, and that Ms. Rich has her
highest respect and thanks for all that she has done, especially during the past difficult
months adding that she is an amazing person to work with.
Supervisor Gallardo commented that the Laveen School District, the City of Phoenix,
and others will be holding a virtual town hall meeting that evening. They will be working
on how to reach out to families in the area and to answer questions that people have
regarding dealing with the pandemic. He also noted that the previous day he had
participated with the West Valley Mayors in a morning breakfast. He said that it is good
to see people come together to work on regional issues. He thanked Bruce Liggett and
his entire team for his partnership with a number of cities regarding homelessness. As
a final note, he thanked Ms. McCarroll again for her service noting that he had worked
with her as an Elected Official, and also in his role as an employee in the Elections
department a number of years ago. He was glad that she would not be leaving right
away but helping through the transition.
Supervisor Gallardo also congratulated the Chairman on his work and leadership
throughout this past year as this is the last official meeting of the year. He wished all
Happy Holidays to all.
Supervisor Gates also thanked the Chairman for his leadership during this
unprecedented year. He noted that he wanted to recognize Scott Jarrett for his work
in the Elections department, and he thanked Mr. Jarrett and Mr. Valenzuela as they
have been excellent representatives of the Elections department in the various lawsuits
over the past months. In addition, he wanted to recognize a member of the Madison
Elementary School District who will be stepping down soon – Matt Gratz. He also
recognized Dr. Jesse Welch who just resigned as Superintendent of the Paradise Valley
Unified School District. He noted that he had worked closely with Dr. Welch over the
past year and also commented that he has a student in that district. Dr. Welch has
done a great job under incredible pressure. James Lee, the previous Superintendent
will be coming back on an interim basis and Supervisor Gates welcomed him back. He
said he looks forward to working with him as they continue through the challenges that
COVID has created.
Supervisor Chucri concurred with previous comments also noting the difficult time for
school districts. He stated that it has been a difficult year, but Maricopa County always
seems to rise to the occasion especially with the leadership of Joy Rich in so many
areas including parody with people working either in the office or from home. Even
during this time business and people continue to come to Maricopa County. He also
thanked so many of the Department Heads as they have had to adjust to the challenges
the pandemic brought. He expressed his appreciation to Ms. McCarroll for the
professionalism she has shown through the years. Finally, he addressed the Chairman,
thanking him for the navigation through this difficult time and has kept the County
moving forward.
The Chairman responded that he was thankful that everyone worked together through
all of the difficulties.
Supervisor Sellers offered his thanks to all for the help he has received through the last
two years. He commented that many people do not know the complexity of County
Government and what a great organization it is. He also noted that this would probably
not be the last meeting of year as others had mentioned.

Supervisor Sellers continued by noting that the Gilbert Chamber of Commerce had a
seminar called “Guiding Growth, a Conversation with Community Leaders.” He was
very impressed with the work they are doing to look to the future for infrastructure
needs. He was also able to attend an East Valley Partnership Board meeting designed
to have discussions with legislators, however, there were only 3 or 4 legislators who
attended. He noted that Rusty Bowers, Speaker of the House, was able to attend for a
portion of the meeting. He noted the importance of hearing first- hand the concerns
and thoughts of the Legislators as this creates a good working relationship.
The Supervisor also thank Marcy Flanagan for the presentation she is going with
various communities about the COVID vaccine as this is so valuable for the public. He
notes that he had received a number of compliments related to the presentation that
Ms. Flanagan did in his community. People were very thankful for the information.
Chairman Hickman then commented that Ms. McCarroll is at time called the “Sixth
Supervisor,” as she is almost always with the Supervisors at meetings. He likened it to
the phrase, “the Fifth Beatle,” saying those are people that bring their skills and their
work ethic to the table. He asked if Ms. McCarroll in that role would like to comment at
the end of this meeting.
Ms. McCarroll commented that she felt she could not adequately express her
appreciation to each of the Supervisors that she had worked for. She felt she had
learned something from every single person. In addition, she commented that she was
not sure if any other person, during the course of 29 years of service has worked for 22
different bosses, but even though it has had its up’s and down’s, it has been a “glorious”
journey. She noted that each Supervisor in some way has contributed to her growth in
the job and that she was extremely appreciative.
Chairman Hickman thanked her for the comments and noted that he was thankful that
they would continue to see her as she trained her replacement.
The Chairman also mentioned the daily briefings and all of the staff around the county
that contribute to the briefing. He noted that the legal team has worked so diligently
