Planning and Zoning Staff and Commission Study Session and Public Hearing - December 3, 2025

The Coconino County Planning and Zoning Commission held a study session and public hearing on December 3, 2025, addressing several land use and zoning cases. Key procurement-related discussions included approval of conditional use permits (CUPs) for RVs as permanent residences on specific parcels, and a design review for a 20,000 square foot manufacturing warehouse with an attached office building in a heavy industrial zone. The commission also reviewed a request to adopt the Flagstaff Regional Land Use Plan as an amendment to the comprehensive plan, which included parcel-specific future growth designations consistent with existing zoning. Commissioners discussed the accuracy of the future land use map and requested modifications to better reflect current conditions before forwarding the plan to the Board of Supervisors. The meeting included motions to approve CUPs and the design review, as well as a recommendation to adopt the regional plan with modifications. Additionally, the commission discussed long-range planning priorities, coordination with the city of Flagstaff, and public comments on trail mapping and responsible tourism policies.
