Civic Issues
Topics getting the most attention in Sahuarita public meetings, ranked by how frequently they are discussed.
3 issues in zoning
Industrial zoning code overhaul
The town is rewriting its industrial code to address heavy industrial users like data centers, with a public open house November 17. One resident warned data centers could pose security risks given proximity to Raytheon and the Air Force base.
RV parking and storage rules rewrite
Council debated but didn't decide new RV rules — whether you can store an RV on a vacant lot, how many on big properties, and whether visiting family can park theirs. Staff will bring back a narrower version focused on screening and short-term staging.
Sahuarita/Rosemont Right-of-Way Encroachment License
The council got private legal advice about a right-of-way license agreement — the kind of deal that can involve use of town roads or land. Nothing was decided publicly, so keep an eye on future agendas to see what comes of it.
