Bill > SB1779

This bill repeals existing Arizona Revised Statutes sections 9-461.16, 11-819, and 33-1329, and amends section 9-462.01, which governs zoning regulations. The amendment to 9-462.01 removes a provision that prohibited municipalities from adopting land use regulations or imposing permit conditions that violate section 9-461.16, effectively removing a restriction on mandatory inclusionary zoning, which requires developers to include a certain percentage of affordable housing in their projects. The bill also renumbers subsequent subsections within section 9-462.01, changing the lettering from H through L to h through K, and clarifies that municipalities must consider individual property rights and personal liberties before adopting zoning ordinances, and must consider a housing impact statement before adopting general zoning ordinances or amendments.
