residential lease community; Prescott AMA
This bill establishes new water supply requirements for developers building residential lease communities or multifamily properties in the Prescott Active Management Area. To obtain a commercial building permit, developers must prove they have secured enough water, either through a commitment from a provider with an assured supply or by acquiring specific irrigation rights that meet the project's annual demand. The law includes an exemption for projects that already received zoning approval before December 31, 2024, and requires officials to mark approved permits to show compliance with these rules.
