APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS & CHECKLIST

Applications submitted to the Maricopa County Planning and Development Department

shall include all of the exhibits, items and information listed in this checklist. An application will

only be accepted by the Department when all of the items listed below are submitted, unless

otherwise deemed unnecessary by staff. Applications determined to be incomplete shall

not be processed by staff. Additional information, detail, and/or copies may be required

after review by the assigned planner.

After it has been determined that the initial submittal is complete, the filing fee per

Zoning Ordinance requirement is to be paid by the owner or owner’s authorized a gent

(checks should be made payable to “Maricopa County Planning and Development”). A

receipt will then be issued and a case number assigned.

As of September 13, 2013, the Land Use application process shall be subject ARS § 1605, a

State statute that mandates establishment of timeframes to either approve or deny a

“license” as defined by the statute. The full statute may be viewed at:

http://www.azleg.gov/arstitle/

The statute sets up two types of review timeframes: Administrative and Substantive. The

Board of Supervisors (BOS) through the P-30 Licensing Timeframes Ordinance has adopted a

25 day administrative timeframe and a 75 substantive timeframe for Land Use

applications. An application related to a residential use is not subject to the statute. An

application that is part of design build project may establish negotiated time process

during the pre-application meeting.

Administrative Review Period

The statutes allow for multiple reviews during the administrative review period.

Substantive Review Period

Only one review is allowed for the substantive review period. The County can amend the

substantive review comments to address legal requirements not identified on the original

substantive review comments.

The applicant can authorizes a 50% time increase. This authorization can be given at time of

application or at any time during the process.

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS & CHECKLIST (Continued)

After receipt of an application, the administrative review period begins and staff will

review for administrative completeness. The applicant will receive a formal response from

their assigned planner and may be required to submit additional information. Once

administrative comments have been given to the applicant, the timeframe clock will stop

and will resume upon resubmittal of the application materials. Once the application is

deemed administratively complete, the planner will formally notify the applicant that the

project has entered the substantive review period and technical comments will be given to

the applicant within a reasonable timeframe. The substantive timeframe clock stops from

receipt of comments until the applicant makes a formal resubmittal.

At any time during the process, an applicant can check the status of their application by

viewing the Online Permit Manager on the Planning and Developments website:

https://accela.maricopa.gov/CitizenAccessMCOSS/

The applicant’s assigned planner can also be utilized as a resource for checking

application status. If at any time comments are given to the applicant, a notation will be

made as to the administrative or substantive timeframe frame remaining which will not

resume until a resubmittal is made. Note: It is very important to return the planner’s

comment memo upon resubmittal so that the appropriate statutory timeframe can resume.

Depending on the comments received, the application materials may need revisions. The

owner or authorized agent must submit revised materials to the OSS. The applicant’s

resubmittal must meet the County’s technical requirement or it will be denied.

Additionally, an administrative decision of denial can be made if the Director finds that it is

not possible to grant the application within the timeframe or the applicant has not provided

additional or supplemental information within 180 days (not working days) of a written or

electronic request for said information.

Once staff is satisfied that technical requirements have been met, staff may approve or

deny the request. At this time, the substantive timeframe clock will stop. After a decision

has been made, a decision letter will be issued.

The conditions of approval of the mining exemption may be appealed to the Hearing

Officer pursuant to ARS § 11-832. Provide request for appeal to the Hearing Officer Liaison

at this address within 30 calendar days of the administrative/ministerial approval date to

schedule an administrative hearing.

Note: If an applicant has not made a resubmittal of application materials in either

administrative or substantive review periods after six (6) months, the application will be

closed due to inactivity.

AFFIDAVIT OF GENERAL MINING USE

If approved, the Certificate of Exemption for Mining is an exemption from portions

of the Maricopa County Zoning Ordinance, and the County’s Building Code

Authority, for the use of the land for the approved mining activities. Any use not

incidental to the approved mining operation will be required to comply with the

current regulations imposed upon said land by the underlying zoning district. The

primary use of land shall be the mining operation. If the mining operation use is

abandoned or is not the primary use of the land, then the appropriate zoning

regulations shall apply.

Each time the property owner wishes to expand the use or construct, alter, modify

or demolish any structure or improvement on the subject parcel, a revised land use

application is required. At that time, the Department shall re-evaluate the

exemption status to ensure that the current zoning exemption is valid.
