PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE

 

The Marana Planning Commission will hold a public hearing on December 11, 2024 at or after 6:00 p.m. at the Marana Municipal Complex located at 11555 W. Civic Center Drive, Marana, Arizona, to consider amending the Marana Land Development Code.

The proposed amendments would revise Marana Town Code (MTC) Title 17 (Land Development) to comply with the newly-adopted provisions in Arizona Revised Statutes (A.R.S.) §9‑462.10 relating to backyard fowl regulation. The proposed amendments would revise MTC sections 17-4-2 (Use matrix) and 17-4-3 (Use conditions matrix) to allow up to 6 chickens to be kept on a single-family detached residential lot that is one-half acre or less in size. The revisions to MTC section 17-4-3 would also prescribe additional development regulations related to the keeping of chickens, including requirements for enclosures, including provisions addressing size, height, and distance from neighboring property lines. The proposed amendments would also add provisions to MTC section 17-6-7 (Animal-keeping) to add additional animal-keeping requirements for chickens kept on a single-family detached residential lot of one-half acre or smaller, as permitted by A.R.S. §9-462.10.

A copy of, and more information about, the proposed amendments is available at https://www.maranaaz.gov/Departments/Legal-Prosecutors-Office/Town-Code and for viewing during regular business hours at the Marana Municipal Complex located at 11555 W. Civic Center Drive, Marana, Arizona. For further information, please contact the Development Services Department at (520) 382-2600.
