RESOLUTION NO. 91-61
A RESOLUTION MODIFYING THE ADOPTED SOUTH MOlIAVE VALLEY AREA PLAN,
AND GOLDEN VALLEY AREA PLAN, AMENDING THE DEDICATED PLAN TO
PROVIDE FOR THE MOHAVE COUNTY WASTEWATER MASTER PLAN TO BE PART
OF THE REVISED COMPREHENSIVE PLAN FOR MOHAVE COUNTY, ARIZONA
WHEREAS, at the special meeting of the Mohave County Board
of Supervisors held on May 20, 1991, a public hearing was
conducted to modify the adopted South Mohave Valley Area Plan,
and Golden Valley Area Plan, amending the dedicated plan to
provide for the Mohave County Wastewater Master Plan, as outlined
in Exhibit "A", and Exhibit "B" known as Volume I - South Mohave
Valley and Volume II - Golden Valley respectively, and
WHEREAS, the Planning and Zoning Commission is required to
recommend to the Board of Supervisors a County land use General
Plan which is designed to conserve natural resources, aid public
spending, and promote the health, safety, convenience, and
general welfare of the public, and
WHEREAS, the development of this Wastewater Master Plan
allows a blueprint for the future sewering of the South Mohave
Valley Area and Golden Valley Area. Specifically the master plan
for each area was to accomplish the following: (a) Provide an
engineered program of major trunk lines that will cover the study

area; (b) Recommend a long term method for treatment and disposal
of the wastewater collected within the study area;
(c) Analyze
the feasibility of individual, prefabricated wastewater treatment
plants within the study area.
These "satellite" wastewater
treatment and disposal plants would serve interim service areas
and would be installed and operated by private developers. As
sewer service from a larger regional system becomes. available,
the satellite plants would be removed and the interim sanitary
service areas would be dissolved and connected to the regional
system. The master plan also addresses transitional methods that
may be utilized to move from individual on site systems to larger
networks, and
WHEREAS, through the use of this master plan blueprint the
Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ) and the State
Corporation Commission will coordinate the implementation of the
plan, and
WHEREAS, both State agencies have stated that the adoption
of the Mohave County Wastewater Master Plan into the County 's
General Plan will act similarly to a 208 Plan, and
WHEREAS, the study area for the South Mohave Valley Area
encompassed an area 7,035 acres in size, from the Bullhead City
limi ts south to Joy Lane, having a width of approximately 3.5
miles, and
WHEREAS,
the
South
Mohave
Valley Area
was
treated
differently than the Golden Valley Area due to size and other

physical differences such as depth to ground water, and soil
types, however, the concept and structure of the plan is similar,
and
WHEREAS,
the overall study area in Golden Valley was
approximately 24 miles long, with width variations of 13 miles
near the center, 8 miles at the south end and 6 to ~3 miles at
the north end, and
WHEREAS,
the Golden Valley plan was divided into three
tiers.
Tier I was concentrated as the most likely to develop
into high densities due to infrastructure availability. Tiers II
and III were limited to major trunk line corridors to assure long
range planning, and
WHEREAS, the tier I study area in the Golden Valley Plan is
54,326 acres in size and if completely developed would house in
excess of 200,000 population, therefore, a concentration of
effort limiting design to tier I was felt adequate for the Master
Plan Update, and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a public hearing on
February 13, 1991 to take public input on the proposal and
amendment to the General Plan.
The hearing on the issue lasted
three (3) hours, some modifications were made after hearing
testimony.
The Planning Commission on a vote of seven to three
recommended APPROVAL of the modified proposal to amend the South
Mohave Valley Area Plan and Golden Valley Area Plan and County
General Plan to include the Mohave County Wastewater Master Plan
