Where it is in the process

Plain-English Summary

This bill modifies regulations for land use and utility construction in Arizona. It clarifies that certain agricultural activities, like agritourism, are generally exempt from county zoning ordinances, but excludes specific food establishments, public rodeo events, and cannabis cultivation. The bill also allows utilities to replace existing power plants or build new ones next to existing sites without a new environmental compatibility certificate, provided certain conditions are met.
