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

DELANEY SUBSTATION COMMUNICATION TOWER
Case #: Z2023088
Supervisor District: 4
Applicant & Owner:
DCR Transmission LLC / Arizona Public Service Company
Request:
Special Use Permit to allow a 260’ microwave communications tower
Site Location: Generally located NW of Salome Hwy & Courthouse Road
Commission Recommendation: On 10/5/23, the Commission voted 5-0 to adopt a motion
recommending the Board of Supervisors approve Z2023088 subject to conditions ‘a’ – ‘g’:
a. Development of the site shall be in substantial conformance with the Site Plan entitled
“Delaney Substation DCRT MW Tower“, consisting of 8 full-size sheets, dated August 21,
2023, except as modified by the following conditions. Staff may determine slight refinements
to remain in substantial conformance with the approved site plan.
b. Development of the site shall be in substantial conformance with the Narrative Report
entitled “Delaney Substation Communication Tower”, consisting of 12 pages, dated August
22, 2023, except as modified by the following conditions.
c. The following engineering conditions:
1. A section line , Thomas Road, coincides with the south boundary of the parcel. Per an
approval of reduction, a 40-foot reservation will be required for Thomas Road.
2. A mid-section alignment is located on the eastern perimeter of the proposed
development requiring building setbacks to start from a future half street of 40-feet per the
Maricopa County Zoning and Ordinance Section 11105.
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. Detailed Grading and Drainage Plans showing the new site improvements must be
submitted for the acquisition of building permits.

e. This special use permit is valid for a period of 25 years and shall expire on October 18,
2048, 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.
f. 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.
g. 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.

AQ-2023-001 INCORPORATION BY REFERENCE - RULE 360 (NEW SOURCE
PERFORMANCE STANDARDS), RULE 370 (FEDERAL HAZARDOUS AIR POLLUTANT
PROGRAM), RULE 371 (ACID RAIN), AND APPENDIX G (INCORPORATED
MATERIALS)
Convene a public hearing, as required by Arizona Revised Statutes (A.R.S.) § 49-479(b), to
solicit comments on the proposed revision of Maricopa County Air Pollution Control
Regulations: Rule 360 (New Source Performance Standards), Rule 370 (Federal Hazardous
Air Pollutant Program), Rule 371 (Acid Rain), and Appendix G (Incorporated Materials).
Following the public hearing, the Board is requested to adopt the proposed incorporations
into the Maricopa County Air Pollution Control Regulations.
The Maricopa County Air Pollution Control Regulations contain several rules, Rules 360,
370, 371, and Appendix G, which incorporate by reference federal regulations from Title 40
of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). These federal regulations include New Source
Performance Standards (NSPS), National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants
(NESHAP) and Acid Rain regulations. Every July 1, the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) codifies revisions made to these federal regulations during the preceding year.
The purpose of this rulemaking is to incorporate by reference the applicable federal
regulations as codified on July 1, 2023, and thereby update Rules 360, 370, 371, and
Appendix G with any revisions made to the corresponding federal rules during the preceding

year. This is necessary in order to continue to comply with the Maricopa County Air Quality
Department’s delegated authority from EPA to implement and enforce NSPS, NESHAP, and
acid rain programs in Maricopa County, except for those specific authorities retained by the
EPA. After the rules are adopted by the Board of Supervisors, the MCAQD will request
delegation authority from the EPA to implement and enforce the federal standards.
Permit fees are not changing due to this action.

RESCISSION AND REPLACEMENT OF PARAGRAPHS G AND J OF RULE 32 (ODORS
AND GASEOUS EMISSIONS) IN THE ARIZONA STATE IMPLEMENTATION PLAN
Convene a public hearing to solicit comments on a proposed revision to the Arizona State
Implementation Plan (SIP). The Maricopa County Air Quality Department (MCAQD) is
proposing to rescind Paragraphs G and J of Rule 32 (Odors of Gaseous Emission) from the
Arizona SIP and to replace the paragraphs with Sections 306 and 307 of Rule 320 (Odors
and Gaseous Air Contaminants). Following the public hearing, the Board is requested to
approve the proposed rescission of Paragraphs G and J of Rule 32 from the Arizona SIP
and approve submission of Sections 306 and 307 of Rule 320 into the Arizona SIP.
This action is part of a larger SIP recodification project that was initiated in 2017 to rescind
and replace MCAQD’s outdated two-digit SIP approved rules with current three-digit rules to
update the SIP.

DEANNEXATION FROM CITY OF PHOENIX ORDINANCE S-49903 TO MARICOPA
COUNTY
Formal Meeting Minutes
11/01/2023
Page 27 of 69
Pursuant to A.R.S. § 9-471.03 convene the scheduled public hearing to determine if the
public interest is served by de-annexing road right-of-way from City of Phoenix jurisdiction to
Maricopa County in accordance with City of Phoenix Ordinance No. S-49903, and the
analysis of the impact of the requested de-annexation.
Right-of-way location: NW Cor Broadway RD and 67th AVE, APN: 104-55-856. Supervisory
District No.5.
After reviewing the analysis and hearing those that may appear for or against the request, if
the Board determines that the public interest is served by this de-annex/annexation action,
a vote of approval shall direct the following:
1. File an ordinance setting forth the legal description of the public right-of-way and declaring
the return of the right-of-way contingent on the fulfillment of the additional conditions of the
statute in the Office of the Clerk of the Board.
2. Pursuant to ARS § 9-471.03(F), set a public hearing for December 6, 2023, to de-annex
road subject right-of-way from City of Phoenix jurisdiction to Maricopa County, in accordance
with City of Phoenix Ordinance No. S-49903, and the Ordinance approved by the Board of
Supervisors on this date.
3. Send notice of the date, time and place of the hearing on the requested action to each
owner of real property subject to taxation adjacent to the subject public right-of-way at least
twenty (20) days prior to the hearing.
Legal description of the roadway to be de-annexed, identified as [Exhibit "A"], is attached.
MCDOT Analysis: The existing roadway is owned/operated/maintained by MCDOT. The
property adjacent to the western right-of-way is developing requiring roadway and
intersection improvements. These improvements require deannexation to accommodate full
width of an arterial roadway and full maintenance and operation of the intersection. This
action will ensure the roadway is fully within unincorporated Maricopa County and reduce
conflict of liability. The roadway improvements are a necessary improvement to the traveling
public.
Financial Status: Cost of the roadway(s) development falls to the developer with no initial
cost to Maricopa County. Cost of maintenance moving forward is typical of roadway
maintenance cost and will be the responsibility of Maricopa County. The cost of roadway
maintenance provides a benefit to the traveling public.
The Board action will result to add 0.0004 square miles of right of way to County ownership
and enable the County to assume responsibility for road maintenance.
(C-06-24-259-X-00)
Blue Crowley, resident, spoke about agenda items in the Maricopa Association of
Governments (MAG) meeting. He asked the Board regarding the deannexation, who
is going to be responsible for the transit plan, and for the infrastructure; Maricopa
County or the City of Phoenix. Mr. Crowley briefly spoke about a transit program that
the City of Avondale offers to their residents.

ACCEPT FUNDING FROM US DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, DRUG ENFORCEMENT
ADMINISTRATION (DEA) FOR THE PHOENIX TASK FORCE – FFY24
Approve the Notice of Limits for FFY24 State and Local Overtime Reimbursements and
acceptance of up to $20,707.50 in reimbursement funding from the US Department of
Justice, Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) for officers assigned to DEA-managed task
forces. The DEA Task Force agreement commenced October 1, 2022, and will continue until
September 30, 2026, unless terminated by one or both parties.
Acceptance of this agreement was most recently approved by the Board of Supervisors on
10/19/2022 under C-19-23-036-x-00.
The FFY24 reimbursement funding began retroactively on October 1, 2023, and will
terminate on September 30, 2024.
The agreement allows a 0% rate for indirect costs, or $0 which may be incurred by the County
Attorney's Office or Maricopa County for the administration of this grant. The Maricopa
County Attorney's Office's composite indirect cost rate for 2024 is 20.2%, or $4,182.92. The
recoverable indirect cost of administering this grant is $0; the non-recoverable indirect cost
is $4,182.92 and will be covered by the department's general fund. Grant revenues are not
local revenues for the purpose of the constitutional expenditure limitation, and therefore,
expenditure of the funds is not prohibited by the budget law. The agreement does not require
ongoing cash contributions after the period end date. This agreement is recurring, non-
competitive, and does not require a match.
This funding indirectly supports the overall mandated function of prosecution of criminal
cases. Approval of this agreement allows for reimbursement of overtime paid to the detective
assigned to the DEA Task Force. The agreement aims to disrupt the illicit drug traffic in the
Arizona area by immobilizing targeted violators and trafficking organizations. The County
Attorney has cooperated with the DEA since 1998. While the agreement allows for the
reimbursement of overtime, it is contingent upon the availability of funds. The County
Attorney is prepared to absorb the costs of any overtime related to this agreement.

Authorize the Chairman to sign all documents related to these grant funds, as applicable.

of the travel reduction regional program annually and prepare a report to the Board of
Supervisors. The following provides a summary of A.R.S. 49-583(I) and the Task Force’s
compliance with the same: “The task force shall review the performance of the regional
program annually and prepare a report for the board. The report shall include successes and

Blue Crowley, resident, spoke on item 47. He noted the purpose of the Travel Reduction
Program is to expand the number of accessibilities to the current mass transit. He
spoke about Prop 400, no aggressiveness with routes, and jurisdictional equity in the
West Valley. Mr. Crowley said when it was written, it should have expanded to the rural
areas but instead it eliminated Wickenburg and other rural locations. He asked
Supervisor Gates what bus routes are being implemented in the new plan.
Jeff Caldwell, resident, spoke on item 47. He said the Travel Reduction Program forces
employers with 50 or more employees to offer services and provide information to their
employees about alternative ways of traveling to their businesses. He suggested to the
Board about lobbying to the State to change the statute, and to create a new program
that is less intrusive. He commented about getting the Supreme Court to reverse a 1989
ruling that forces the State to create restrictive State statutes.

necessary to accommodate the grant funding through a future reconciliation.

APPROVE AND ACCEPT GRANT FUNDS FROM ARIZONA DEPARTMENT OF
HOMELAND SECURITY FOR EPIDEMIOLOGICAL FIELD SURVEILLANCE FOR MASS
GATHERING EVENTS
Approve and accept grant funds from Arizona Department of Homeland Security (AZDOH)
for epidemiological field surveillance for Mass Gathering Events such as the Super Bowl,
Subrecipient Agreement Number: 230812-01. The purpose of this grant is to provide
supplies, equipment, and training for the Public Health Surveillance Field Team Operations
during major mass gathering events.
The grant award has a not-to-exceed amount of $8,276. The term of this award is from
October 1, 2023, through September 30, 2024.
This is a new grant award opportunity, and the reoccurrence is unknown. There are no cash
or in-kind match requirements, and on-going contributions will not be required. This is not a
mandated service but provides a benefit to our citizens by improving public safety at mass
gathering events.
The grant allows for the full indirect rate for FY24 of 15.65%. Indirect cost is estimated to be
$1,119.93, all of which is recoverable. All program costs are allocated to the grant so there
will be no additional burden on the department’s operating budget.
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 Agreement is provided by a grant from AZDOH and will not affect the County’s
general fund.

ACCEPTANCE AND USE OF GIFT CARDS FOR THE TUBERCULOSIS CONTROL
INCENTIVE PROGRAM
Approve the acceptance and use of Chevron and Walmart gift cards provided by the Arizona
Department of Health Services (ADHS), to Maricopa County by and through its Department
of Public Health (MCDPH), Tuberculosis (TB) Control Program. For FY24, the MCDPH TB
Clinic received a donation of 100 Chevron gift cards at $10 each, for a total value of
$1,000.00, and 10 Walmart gift cards at $100.00 each, for a total value of $1000.00. The
combined total value of all gift cards received is $2,000.00.
Gift card donations have been received by the TB program for several years. We expect
they will reoccur. Cash and/or in-kind match is not applicable nor are ongoing cash

contributions required should they cease to be provided to the program. TB services are a
mandated function and donations such as these incentivize the treatment program because
awareness and treatment of TB patients is a benefit to Maricopa County residents. To our
knowledge, the donations to the TB program are not given in a competitive manner. Program
costs associated with these donations are absorbed by the TB program’s grant budget.
Administration costs are absorbed by the department’s operating budget.
MCDPH’s indirect rate for FY24 is 15.65%. This in-kind donation does not allow for indirect,
therefore indirect expenses estimated at $313.00 are not recoverable.
The gift cards are redeemable at Walmart and Chevron and are to be used solely as
incentives for clients receiving anti-tuberculosis treatment and for high-risk contacts,
particularly children receiving treatment for latent TB infection.

FOR HEALTHY START INITIATIVE: ENHANCED SERVICES
Approve Notice of Award (NOA) H4952117-01-00, for Healthy Start Initiative (HSI):
Enhanced Services, from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) to

the beginning of each fiscal year and any future indirect rate will be collected at the
corresponding rates.
The HSI: Enhanced Services grant award is competitive and this is the first time it has been
awarded to the Department. It is unknown if it will be awarded again in future years. This
will only be determined if the program applies for it again after this award's term. This
competitive grant does not require an in-kind match, indirect cost is fully recoverable, and
ongoing cash contributions are not required. Healthy Start services are not a mandated
function but provide benefit Maricopa County residents. All program costs are allocated to
the grant so there will be no additional burden on the department’s operating budget.
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 Amendment 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
Agreement is provided by HRSA and will not affect the County’s General Fund.
