Bill > HB2837

This bill amends Arizona Revised Statutes related to municipal planning and zoning, primarily focusing on public hearings and the duties of zoning boards and hearing officers. Key changes include requiring individuals who testify or submit written comments at a public hearing on zoning matters to disclose if they have received any form of compensation for their input. Additionally, members of a board of adjustment (a body that hears appeals on zoning decisions) and hearing officers will be required to disclose if they have served as a board member or officer of any entity that appears before them, and they will be disqualified from participating in matters involving such entities for five years prior to the hearing. The bill also makes minor technical corrections to language within these statutes.
