This bill proposes to amend current statutes regarding the actions of county boards of supervisors (BOS) in Arizona, specifically concerning rezoning actions. Under the new provisions, if a majority of supervisorial districts elect a new supervisor, any rezoning action taken by the BOS after the election and before the new supervisors take office will not be effective for at least 90 days after the new supervisors assume their positions. This insertion aims to ensure that newly elected officials have a say in significant zoning decisions that occur immediately after their election.

Additionally, the bill modifies the voting requirements for rezoning actions when any supervisors are unable to vote due to conflicts of interest. It stipulates that the required number of votes for passage cannot be less than a majority of the full membership of the BOS, rather than simply being less than a majority. The bill also includes technical changes and clarifications to existing language, ensuring that the process for public hearings and notifications regarding rezoning remains consistent and transparent.
