Summary

The Fountain Hills Town Council approved the consent agenda on a 6‑0 roll call and granted a cut/fill waiver for a Palisades lot by the same 6‑0 vote.

The council approved the consent agenda by roll call vote 6‑0.

Later in the meeting the council considered a cut/fill waiver request for a vacant lot on North Palisades (application CF W 25‑0000149815). Planning staff described the request as exceeding the town’s 10‑foot cut/fill standard in places (ranging up to about 13–14 feet) but noted the area of deepest cut is under the proposed garage and not highly visible from the street. Staff recommended approval. Councilwoman Gail Earl moved to approve the cut/fill waiver; the motion passed on a 6‑0 roll call.
