Call to Order

(1) Presentation and discussion of the Proposed Pinal County Park Ordinance relating to parking of vehicles on County roadways and County-owned public rights-of-way. (AD24-013) (Christopher Wanamaker/Joe Ortiz)

(2) Presentation and discussion of the Pinal County 2025 Five-Year Transportation Improvement and Maintenance Program for Budget Years 2024/2025 through 2028/2029 as recommended by the Pinal County Transportation Advisory Committee on February 18, 2025. (AD24-014) (Tara Harman/Joe Ortiz)

(3) Presentation and discussion of proposed rulemaking, resolution to remove the emergency affirmative defense provisions in Chapter 3, Article 1, Section 081 (§ 3-1-081) and the affirmative defense definition in Chapter 8, Article 1, Section 020 (§ 8-1-020) of the Pinal County Air Quality Control District Code of Regulations. Rulemaking action required by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The provisions in Pinal County Code established an affirmative defense that industry could have asserted in enforcement cases brought for noncompliance with technology-based emission limitations in operating permits, provided that the exceedances occurred due to qualifying emergency circumstances. These provisions, which have never been required elements of state operating permit programs, are being removed because they are inconsistent with the EPA’s interpretation of the enforcement structure of the Clean Air Act. In practice, the EPA has found no examples of these defenses being used, and Pinal County Air Quality Control District (PCAQCD) also has no record of them being used in Pinal County.
