Agenda Item Text:
[Item tabled from the March 28, 2023 Regular Board of Supervisors Meeting] Approve or deny the Sirota Appeal (SUA23-01) of the Planning and Zoning Commission's February 8, 2023 Meeting denial of Special Use SU23-02 (Sirota Guest Lodging).
Background:
The applicant, Ronald Sirota, has filed an appeal against a decision made by the Cochise County Planning and Zoning Commission. At the February 8, 2023 meeting, the commission denied a request 4-2-1 (denial, approval, abstain) for Special Use Authorization to offer guest lodging on a 10-acre (parcel 208-67-026) and a portion of an adjoining 10-acre parcel 208-67-025A in unincorporated Benson, Arizona. The establishment of guest lodging (607.01) is subject to Special Use Authorization from the Planning and Zoning Commission in a rural zoning district. The business is located at 440 W Cimmaron Ln Benson, AZ and 536 W Alamo Ln Benson, AZ.
Section 1716.04 of the Zoning Regulations states that appeals of Special Use decisions shall be heard by the Board of Supervisors at a duly noticed public hearing. Following its deliberations on the date of the decision, the Board of Supervisors shall either affirm, reverse, or modify the decision of the Planning and Zoning Commission.
Section 1716.04 of the Zoning Regulations states that appeals of Special Use decisions shall be heard by the Board of Supervisors at a duly noticed public hearing. Following its deliberations on the date of the decision, the Board of Supervisors shall either affirm, reverse, or modify the decision of the Planning and Zoning Commission.
Department's Next Steps (if approved):
The Department shall record the basis for the decision and shall provide a copy to the appellant, Special Use Authorization Applicant, and to the Planning Commission. Within 30-days of approval, the applicant must provide the case planner a signed Acceptance of Conditions form and a Waiver of Claims form. Prior to operation of the Special Use, the applicant shall apply for a building/use permit for the project.
Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:
The Department shall record the basis for the decision and shall provide a copy to the appellant, Special Use Authorization Applicant, and to the Planning Commission. An approval of this appeal request would reverse the decision of the Planning and Zoning Commission and permit the special use request for guest lodging. A denial of this appeal request would affirm the decision of the Planning and Zoning Commission and not permit the special use request for guest lodging
