Of all the decisions the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors have made over the years, suspending building permits all building permits in the vicinity of military installations in the county was perhaps the least defensible. All because of a lawsuit brought against the county by Attorney General Terry Goddard, whose basis for the entire action was to prohibit the county from issuing residential housing building permits in high-risk potential areas.The county lost the lawsuit, and now that they have lifted the moratorium on building permits, the supervisors must call in experts hopefully, at minimal cost to help them come up with a solution to their situation. They still must find a way to placate those property owners around the military facilities without defying state statutes. If this had been done in the first place, this additional action would not be necessary and a fair compensation issue would have never been raised.
