Fountain Hills P&Z Recommends Design Review Process Change
The Fountain Hills Planning and Zoning Commission is recommending that the town council adopt an ordinance change, allowing staff to consider and approve design review for projects.
This change aims to bring the town's requirements into compliance with legislation passed by the Arizona State Legislature last session, according to Town Senior Planner Farhad Tavassoli.
The proposed change would align the town's ordinance with the requirements of the updated state law and replace subjective design guidelines with objective measurable standards.
These new standards would not be based on personal opinion or taste, providing a more objective approach to design review.
