Of the approved applications, one is a business based in the city, while the others are Valley businesses. Valley-based businesses renewing in Maricopa were Accredited Appliance of Phoenix, Regional Pavement Maintenance and Mountain States Contracting, Inc.
The lone Maricopa based business was Hygienics Plus LLC.
