Board schedules joint meeting with Planning & Zoning Commission to discuss roles, comprehensive plan and opt-out community concerns
Summary
The board set a joint meeting with the Planning & Zoning Commission for April 9 to review responsibilities and the comprehensive plan and flagged several local land-use topics including RU zoning, potential waivers, the opt-out community and gray-water practices.
Cochise County scheduled a joint meeting with the Planning & Zoning Commission on Wednesday, April 9 at 2 p.m. to review commission responsibilities and to discuss the county’s comprehensive plan and land-use issues raised by residents.
Board members said the session will be an opportunity to hear commission feedback on recurring land-use matters, including questions about RU zoning classifications, potential waivers and specific cases (SR123 and similar items were mentioned as examples). The board also flagged concerns raised by the Trace Alamo Community Alliance and opt-out community members about gray-water practices, environmental health standards and neighborhood impacts.
Supervisors said the Planning & Zoning Commission and staff will present regulatory standards and clarify enforcement and bylaw gaps. The board noted one Planning & Zoning member frequently attends by Zoom but said it will discuss attendance expectations with the commission. The board emphasized the session is a listening and brainstorming meeting; public comment will not be taken at the work session but members of the public may attend to listen.
Staff said the session will help identify whether follow-up meetings are needed with the opt-out community and whether environmental-health standards or county bylaws require changes to address resident concerns.
