This law lets two tribal councils create zoning and building rules for their reservations. The Papago Council and Salt River Pima-Maricopa Community Council can enact these rules with the Secretary's consent. It applies where Arizona lacks jurisdiction, and local towns may help write the rules.

The Papago Council and the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Community Council may enact zoning, building, and sanitary regulations for the lands on their own reservations that sections 416 through 416j of this title allow to be leased. They need the consent of the Secretary of the Interior to do this. This power applies in the absence of State civil and criminal jurisdiction over those particular lands. The councils may also contract with local municipalities for assistance in preparing these regulations.
