P & Z Meeting - 07/27/2026

The City of Maricopa Planning and Zoning Commission held a meeting on July 27, 2026, where they discussed a conditional use permit (CUP 26-02) for Verizon Wireless to maintain an existing 99-foot cell tower located at the northwest corner of West Hathaway Avenue and Condrey Avenue. The permit is considered new since the previous one expired in 2018. The commission reviewed the application, which involved minor internal cable modifications without increasing tower height or expanding equipment. The commission approved the permit unanimously. Additionally, staff presented a mid-year report on permitting activity, noting that 609 reviews had been conducted so far in 2026, with trends consistent with the previous year. The report included data on planning and zoning inspections, development review permits, preliminary and final plats, and discussions about improving reporting on major construction permits. No new capital projects or contract awards were discussed during the meeting.
