Project Summary:
1.
The applicant and owner, Octavio ‘Alex’ Arroyo, is requesting a Special Use Permit (SUP) for an 
RV / Boat storage yard on an approximately 4.5 acres on a property that is zoned Rural-43 in the 
Goodyear Area on parcel 502-40-002D. The owner intends to build a single-family residence on 
the parcel (not included in the SUP request) and utilize the remaining area to facilitate commercial 
RV and boat storage. The site will have approximately 200 spaces for  RV’s and boats, utilizing 
individual rented spaces in a round circulation pattern. A single site entrance will be located 
directly off of Citrus Rd. to serve both the house and the storage facility. 
2.
The parcel has been utilized as a single-family residence with a manufactured home on it since 
1976. The current owner purchased the lot and had since cleared it in preparation for the new 
single-family residence and potential SUP approval. The site is surrounded by single-family 
residences with Maricopa County Rural-43 parcels on the north, south & west sides. The parcel 
fronts to the west on Citrus St. with the City of Goodyear fire department house directly across 
the street.  
3.
The RV/boat storage use has no proposed office. The applicant intends to utilize the site and to 
keep the residence separate from business operations. The owner will be available during 
business hours of 6 AM to 9 PM for customer assistance and caretaker responsibilities. 
Customers will access the site via an electronic box. The site will be entirely surrounded by a 6’ 
CMU wall for screening and security measures. The site will be illuminated by single center placed 
security lights. The applicant has completed photometric mapping of the proposed lights 
indicating it will allow for minimal light trespass beyond the site. 
4.
The applicant intends to utilize all existing Rural-43 development standards for the RV/boat 
storage use. The applicant seeks to amend parking and internal driveline standards from required 
paving to a dust-controlled surface as approved by the Maricopa County Air Quality Department 
as the site will only be minimally accessed for deposition and removal of items. External 
driveways and access points will still be paved per county standards.

City of Goodyear General Plan 2035 (adopted May 21, 2024): The parcel is listed in the City of 
Goodyear General Plan as Neighborhoods. Neighborhoods allow for commercial uses, “at 
intersections or to buffer a residential use from an industrial use or interstate freeway within the 
Neighborhoods category.’ 
Public Participation Summary:
11.
The applicant has met and complied with all required public participation requirements as 
required by Maricopa County. The site was posted in two locations on February 20, 2025 with 
hearing dates updated on June 28, 2025. Notice of application letters were sent to all parcel 
owners within 300’ and to all registered area of interest members.  Staff has not received any 
public comment on the SUP application. 
Outstanding Concerns from Reviewing Agencies:
12.
This site is within a City of Goodyear county island. The City has commented that they wish to 
see the site screened from public view and to consider the impacts of public lighting on 
surrounding neighbors. The City has requested design standards including decorative fencing 
and specific lighting standards for the project.
Staff Analysis:
13.
The applicant is proposing complete screening per the City of Goodyear’s request and has 
completed a photometric plan of on-site proposed lighting to demonstrate low nighttime impacts 
to surrounding properties. While staff cannot enforce the City’s requested design standards, staff 
feels the applicant has met all screening and lighting requests made by the City. Staff supports 
the SUP request and believes the parcel to be an adequate location for such use.  
Recommendation:
14.
Staff recommends the Commission adopt a motion recommending that the Board of Supervisors 
approve SU250008 subject to the following conditions ‘a’ – ‘h’:
a.
Development of the site shall be in substantial conformance with the Site Plan entitled 
“Arroyo RV Storage”, consisting of 1 full-size sheet, dated May 15, 2025, except as 
modified by the following conditions. Staff may determine slight refinements to remain in 
substantial conformance with the approved site plan.  Minor and major amendments to 
the site plan will be determined in accordance with Chapter 3 of the Maricopa County 
Zoning Ordinance.
b.
Development of the site shall be in substantial conformance with the Narrative Report 
entitled “RV Storage Property Development”, consisting of 5 pages, dated April 21, 2025,

Intent to Discharge (NOID) from the State (ADEQ), as may be required.
f.
Noncompliance with any of the conditions assigned to the approval of this Special Use 
Permit by the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors may be grounds for revocation in 
accordance with the requirements and procedures as set forth in the Maricopa County 
Zoning Ordinance. 
g.
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

h.
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 may be considered for revocation  
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.

Revision 3 Date: April 21, 2025

Purpose of Request 
The purpose of this request is to obtain approval for a special use permit for the development of 
an RV storage property at the specified location. This project aims to provide a secure area for 
RV owners in the Goodyear area, addressing the increasing demand for specialized vehicle 
storage in an area with new planned community developments.  
 
Description of Proposal 
The proposed RV storage facility will encompass approximately 5 acres of land and will consist 
of approximately +/- 200 storage spaces designed specifically for recreational vehicles, including 
RVs, campers, and boats.  
 
Hours/Days of Operation 
The facility will operate 7 days a week, with  hours from 6 AM to 9 PM. Entrance and exit gate 
will be self automated for additional convenience.  
 
Number of Employees 
The estimated number of employees on-site will be none as it will be owner-operated. The owner 
will provide support for customer service by appointment on-site. 
 
Description/Location of Building 
The RV Storage will not have a building for any business uses. There will be a living residence 
of approximately 2,600 square feet.on the property for the owner’s use.  
 
Color Palette 
The design will incorporate natural colors, such as various shades of brown, to blend with the 
surrounding environment.  
 
Sign Detail/Descriptions 
A wood panel sign will be placed at the entrance, featuring the project name and contact 
information, illuminated by a spotlight for visibility at night.  
 
Screening Wall/Fence Details and Location 
The perimeter of the property will be secured with a 6-foot high block wall.  
 
Lighting 
The property will use parking lot solar lights in the model: SL29 20W 15FT POLE from Solar 
Illuminations. There will be 8 lights total with each location specifically shown on the site plan. 
6 of the lights will be in the parking lot dead spaces in the center of the property to prevent light 
from flooding out of the perimeter of the property into any neighboring properties. 2 of the lights

will be at the entrance/exit of the property to illuminate vehicles or guests entering and exiting. 
Each light is to be at a height of approximately 15 feet. They will operate as listed: 
-​
Lights are automatically activated from dusk to dawn. 
-​
At 100% output, the SL29 20W model emits 2,600 lm.  
-​
The light has three modes and will be operated on the “motion-sensor mode: automatic 
illumination at dusk at 30% output with 100% output upon motion detection for the first 
2 hours, then 30% output with 70% output upon motion detection for the next 2 hours, 
then 10% output with 30% output upon motion detection” as described on the Solar 
Illuminations website description. 
-​
The SL29 20W model is supplied with a 50 watt solar panel 
 
Example Lighting Distribution for SL29 20W 15FT POLE light:

Relationship to Surrounding Properties 
The RV Storage facility will be located one mile South of Interstate-10. The property will be 
surrounded by single family acreage homes to the North, West and South bounds of the property. 
To the East, there is the Goodyear Fire Station and new construction for a planned community.  
 
Benefits to Community 
The proposed facility will provide a convenient storage solution for RV owners who don’t have 
access to parking in their planned communities.  
 
Recent Changes in the Area 
Recent city zoning amendments have favored the development of storage facilities, indicating 
support from local government. This project aligns with the city’s broader plan to enhance 
commercial offerings in the area and take advantage of the increasing local population. 
 
Location and Accessibility 
The site is strategically located just South of the Interstate-10, providing exceptional accessibility 
for residents of Goodyear and surrounding cities. The property is accessible off of Citrus Road, 
an arterial road. 
 
Circulation System (on & off-site) 
The existing road infrastructure will adequately support the proposed facility with the addition of 
minor enhancements, including improved entrance and exit visibility. The entrance and exit will 
be one automated gate alongside the East side of the property accessible from Citrus Road. On 
site, each lane between parking rows will be two-way traffic, allowing for larger vehicles to 
easily maneuver the space.  
 
Development Schedule (Phasing) 
The development will be executed in one phase: Site preparation, grading, block wall 
construction, and decomposed granite for the entire storage area with the exception of the water 
retaining area, which will be quarter minus granite (approximately 6 months).
