Action is being taken to address the most recent request to bypass Sun City’s age overlay, and future attempts to allow younger residents.
Sun City residents made two separate requests for temporary use permits in 2022 to allow someone under 55 to live long-term in their homes. Sun City covenants, conditions and restrictions prohibits anyone under 55 living in the community, unless there is someone 55 or older living in the home, and restricts those under 19 to being in a Sun City home to 90 days.
The first request was denied by the Maricopa County Board of Adjustment. But the second request was left in limbo when the BOA did not act upon it.
