The reason for the request was to clarify the setback requirements when metal awnings and cabanas are used. The Zoning Administrator has indicated that, when flammable materials are used, require- ments of the Uniform Building Code would apply. With the change in technology, there has been substantial modification in the design of mobile homes and RVs since the requirements were written in 1971 (requirements which the city adopted in adopting the Pinal County Zoning Ordinance) . Zoning Administrator' s Comment See attached. . Commission Recommendation The Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously recommends approval (5-0) of PZ-14-81 (proposed Ordinance 107) for the following reasons. 1 . This is a housekeeping measure designed to alleviate problems of setbacks between units and, as such, will eliminate certain problems being encountered in managing these regulations.

Proposed Zoning Amendment Please find enclosed a rewritten Trailer Homesite Article. This amendment is proposed to clarify the present Trailer Homesite Article. The only change of substance is in the area of setbacks for awnings in mobile home parks and travel trailer parks . The proposed change as rewritten eliminates the setback requirement for metal awnings leaving that decision instead to the park owners . This makes the City of Apache Junction consistent with Mesa' s recent change. Since setback requirements for other than metal awnings '"` are addressed in the Uniform Building Code it is not necessary to place a zoning setback on them. It is felt the proposed change • will alleviate many enforcement problems encountered by the City and also will give park owners more discretion in the development of their parks . For these reasons , it is recommended the proposed amendment, as drafted, be approved.

LAWFUL PRE-EXISTING USE - REBUTTABLE PRESUMPTION• 1. Legislative Intent• The Apache Junction City Council finds that there exist many uses of property, land and buildings in the City of Apache Junction which may or may not have been lawful uses under Pinal County Codes prior to the City's incorporation, that said uses, even if not lawful under Pinal County Codes, have often been in existence for a period of several years; that the records of Pinal County are incomplete, making a determination of lawfulness or unlawfulness impossible in many cases, that the absence of such records causes hardships on the citizens of Apache Junction, and that the adoption of a rebuttable presumption of the lawfulness of those uses would further the public health, welfare, s' ,.�.�`: r"w'�.^ .� '- and safety. The Apache Junction City Council, therefore, adopts this Ordinance for the purpose of establishing a rebuttable presumption of the lawfulness of uses of property, land, and buildings, if said use was in existence or maintained on February 9, 1979, according to a map dated February 9, 1979, on file with the Apache Junction Planning Depart- ment. 2 For purposes of $304, 305, and 306, those uses of land and/or buildings thereon which were lawfully in existence or maintained on July 1, 1979, are lawfully nonconforming uses Evidence of its exis- tence on February 9, 1979, shall be prima facie evidence of its lawfulness This presumption may be rebutted by evidence establishing that said use is not actually a lawful nonconforming use under Sections 304, 305, or 306 Any person may bring a complaint to the Zoning Administrator alleging the use is not a lawful nonconforming use and not legally in existence on the effective date of the Apache Junction Zoning Ordinance Such person shall provide the Zoning Administrator sufficient evidence (which evidence may include the public record) to rebut the presumption of a lawful noncon- forming use which is established herein SECTION II REPEAL OF CONFLICTING PROVISIONS — All ordinances and parts of ordinances in conflict with the provisions of this Ordinance or any part of the Code adopted herein by reference, are hereby repealed. SECTION III PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase, or portion of this Ordinance or any part of a Code adopted herein by reference is, for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional by the decision of any court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions thereof SECTION IV PENALTY CLAUSE Any person found guilty of violating any provisions of this Ordinance shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and, upon conviction thereof shall be punished by a fine not to exceed $1,000 or imprisonment • r for a period of six months, or by both such fine and imprisonment Each day that a violation continues shall be a separate offense punishable as hereinabove described.

We are requesting the Council adopt the attached resolution to be sent to the Arizona Law Enforcement Officers Advisory Council with copies to other agencies within our region and Central Arizona College. Basically what we're asking is that we go on record approving the CARLOTA Academy and want continued funding for this Academy through the Arizona Law Enforcement Officers Advisory Council. The City of Apache Junction, along with every police agency, is a contributor thru traffic citations to the funding for this Academy. Therefore, we feel a smaller academy, Ask such as the one at Central Arizona College provides us with the best training for our agency.

Apache Junction is eligible for this type of funding for a transportation system. The State is trying to fund a few systems using (1) multiple system programs or (2) existing system expansion. As Apache Junction has a bus, this funding would be available to pay 80% of the capital administrative costs. This could include an administrator, a secretary, an accountant, and 50% of the operating costs. Applicants would have to have available additional funding such as unrestricted federal , state or local money. Some local match could be "in kind. " This additional funding probably would only amount to 121/2% of local money. '.. At the present time, Apache Junction's bus has one trip per month planned. Mr. Derrick explained that the State would fund one trip . per month, per week or whatever. He recommended that Apache Junction join with the Pinal-Gila Council of Senior Citizens in the pre-application process for the transportation system funding. He stated that an interest has been shown in this area and that he has been approached by a "brown bag" group who are pushing for a transportation system in Apache Junction. The pre-application process must be completed by August 31st. Therefore, action must be taken by the end of July in order to meet this deadline. The planner at CAAG is available for technical assistance. The pre-application process is only the mechanism by which eligibility is determined. The actual contract for the grant would not have to be signed until some time in the future, giving the city leeway to reconsider at any point up to the actual signing of the contract. 1001 NORTH IDAHO ROAD • APACHE JUNCTION,ARIZONA 85220 • TELEPHONE(602)982-8002 July 9, 1981 Mayor and Council Director of Public Works Page 2 Mr. Derrick is anxious to get the funding request in process. $1 million dollars is available at the state level .

DATE: July 7, 1981 TO: Airport Commission C) '' .--,;7 l; FROM: Director of Public Works � REGARDING: Regular Airport Commission Meeting July 6, 1981 Based upon a telephone poll, this office was advised that not enough voting members would be in attendance for a quorum. Therefore, this office made itself present at the regular meet- ing place, to notify the public accordingly. At 5:00 p.m. no Airport Commissioners were in attendance. In the audience was Boyd Leatherman who introduced himself as in favor of the proposed airport development. His written response was received and was transmitted, to be included as a part of the public record. As no business was conducted, I discussed the airport development with Mr. Leatherman and answered his questions accordingly. At 5:25 p.m. I officially announced the public meeting would not convene due to a lack of a quorum and that the next meeting would be held at its regularly scheduled time unless otherwise posted.

Being similar in nature and being adjacent, they were presented to the Commission simultaneously The chairman asked the staff to brief the Commission 6 Mr Gero explained that when Raynette Investment, which is adja- cent to Kubler, applied for CB-2, it was discovered that the original case of the Kubler rezoning contained several errors There had been no ordinance in that case; state statute requires all rezoning to be done by ordi- nance There were also several discrepancies in the rezoning legal description The third error was that subsequent ordinances never rectified the rezoning for the total piece of property in question On discovering these errors, Kubler Mortuary was notified. Mr. Kubler sent a letter requesting that we follow the correct procedures and rectify the rezoning When the rezoning was passed in 1979, all. technical procedures had been met, except for correct legal description and the adoption of an ordinance (i e , public hearings by the Planning and Zoning Commission, hearing by the City Council, advertisement, —Amok etc ) Therefore, rezoning for two parcels owned by the applicant is requested. It was explained that the proposed legal description of the second parcel would run to the center line of Highway 60, if any portion of the area along the highway were ever abandoned, it would be automatically rezoned upon reverting back to the property owner 7. Chairman requested Mr Kubler to present his case 8 Mr John Kubler explained that on the original petition, part of the legal description was omitted.

Oltman/Kell M/S "BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning and Zoning Com- mission of the City of Apache Junction, Arizona, that approval of Case PZ-11-81 (Proposed Ordinance No 101) be recommended to the City Council for the reason that the zoning is consistent with other zoning in the area."

One text change deals with Article XX - (TH) Trailer Homesite Zone This change is due to the fact that ours is a 1971 Zoning Ordinance and many issues of modern mobile homes are not appli- cable to the Ordinance. The other request for Commission Initiative is for Section 307 pertaining to, by title, "Lawful Pre- existing Uses - Rebuttable Presumption" which refers to Grandfathered Clause Several issues have arisen concerning compliance with the Grandfathered Clause of our Zoning Ordinance, the amendment would alleviate much inconvenience to the individual in such cases 39 Chairman called for a motion. 40.

Basically, the summer months activities are aimed at providing leisure time activities for the youth of our community, but we also are providing activities for adults . I am pleased to report that this year ' s program is the biggest yet with over 600 youth involved in activities including Arts & Crafts , Swimming, Gymnastics, Woodworking, etc . Approximately 300 adults are involved in activities ranging from slo-pitch softball to slimnastic classes . Even with this extremely large turnout, many had to be turned away due to classes being filled. Hopefully, next year this problem will be alleviated. YOUTH JOB REFERRAL We have had a few requests the past two months , but are still short on both youth looking for employment and employers . News releases have gone out recently on this service, and we are expecting the publicity to give us a greater response. ALUMINUM CAN DRIVE + Drive to Dive! ! If you haven ' t noticed the trailer in the south east corner of the City Complex, it is almost full . We intend to cash them in toward the end of July. We have got a lot of bagging to do . TENNIS COURT ACTIVITY The newly developed tennis courts are getting a tremendous amount of use. Tennis lessons are offered four hours a day through the Summer Program, but when they are not in session, the courts are still always full . CITY COMPLEX PARK Unfortunately, due to some communications breakdown, our mini-park located north of the Community Services Building has been put on hold. If/when we get the go ahead, we are prepared to get moving on this project. Hopefully, we will have a nice facility here in a few months . June-July, 198. Activity, Report page 2 HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT On July 2nd and 3rd, a High School aged Basketball Tournament was sponsored by this division. There were ten different schools represented from all over the state. Approximately 125 boys took advantage of this program which I would label very successful . HIGH SCHOOL WRESTLING TOURNAMENT A tourning All-Star Wrestling team from the state of Oklahoma made Apache Junction one of their many stops to put on a wrestling exhibition against some of our local youngsters . This tournament was held in conjunction with our summer wrestling program. 4th OF JULY This division played an important role in this year 's City/Chamber sponsored 4th of July activities . The annual volleyball tournament drew eight teams from various non-profit groups in the community . We also offered games and races for all ages , and they could enjoy a free slice of watermelon afterwards . The Parks & Recreation Commission set up a booth and sold fry bread and ice tea. Approximately $100 . 00 was made, and these proceeds were donated to the swimming pool fund. ADULT SOFTBALL LEAGUE One of the most popular activities offered this summer to our area adults is the mixed softball league. Presently, there are ten teams participating with approximately 200 people involved . •�► This league will run throughout the summer and requests are already being made for a winter league. ENERGY ASSISTANCE A grant was made available to the Department of Economic Security to help low-income families with the high cost of utilities . To help relieve the costly burden of a trip to Mesa or Coolidge, the Community Service Division has been assisting D .E S in taking applications for this utility relief . This service has been offered on Thursday afternoons with the help of a gracious volunteer , and will continue through the month of July. We only help with making the application. From here the applications go to D .E S to make the determination for eligibility June-July, 198 Activity Report page 3 SALVATION ARMY As another service to the needy, the Community Services Division is now the representative for the Salvation Army in Apache Junction. The Salvation Army is a one time emergency assistance program for the needy, and only has food vouchers in a small amount available. .. EMERGENCY CRISIS INTERVENTION PROGRAM (ECIP) The Community Service Division is also helping the Community Action Human Resources Agency make available to the needy emergency relief with utilities and emergency housing repairs . Again, we are only taking applications from those in an emergency situation (i. e. no income and utilities are at a shutoff status) . This is another grant available to the needy and will continue until September 30 . PQACHF✓ .�. hid;a,. e/ ,14� Z qRiZ Np.
