# 2026-09-17 Board of Adjustment Hearing

The Maricopa County Board of Adjustment held a hearing on September 17, 2026, to consider several variance requests related to property development and zoning compliance. Key procurement-related discussions included approval of variances for reduced front yard setbacks to accommodate detached garages, lot size variances to enable building permits, and hillside disturbance allowances for residential construction. The board approved a variance reducing a front yard setback from 40 feet to 16 feet for a detached garage due to flood zone constraints, and another variance allowing a detached RV garage to encroach 6 inches into a street side setback easement, with engineering assurances that drainage flows would not be adversely impacted. Additionally, a variance was granted for a lot size deficiency to permit development of a single-family residence with an accessory dwelling unit, and hillside disturbance variances were approved to facilitate construction on sloped parcels. Motions for approval were passed unanimously in all cases where votes were taken. The meeting also addressed procedural matters such as agenda withdrawals and continuances. No direct contract awards or vendor selections were discussed, but the approvals enable future construction and development activities subject to county regulations and permits.
