The Land Use Plan was originally adopted on May 2, 1989, and an updated version was adopted on August 13, 1990. This edition of the plan has been updated to reflect changing growth patterns, population projections, annexations and other changes to the planning area since the last adoption.
Maricopa County has experienced remarkable population growth for decades, and will continue to do so.

Relying on the expertise from throughout the College of Public Programs, this report analyzes 12 critically important topics, including children and families, poverty, substance abuse, and Latinos.
