1. A petition of Exception is submitted for the following:
a. Article 6.6-1A (Blocks shall not be more than one
thousand three hundred twenty (1,320') feet in
length. The request is for two blocks, 1 and 10,
to exceed this length by six hundred sixty two
point sixteen (662.16') feet and six hundred sixty
three point seven (663.07') feet respectively.

b. Article 6.6-1B (No lots with double frontage).
The request is for all lots in Blocks 10 and 11 to
have double frontage.
c. Most interior streets will be forty (40') feet
which is less than the minimum local street right-
of-way of sixty (60') feet per standard detail #63
in the Standard Specifications and Standard
Details of the Mohave County Subdivision
Regulations.
d. All interior street sections are to be inverted
crown in lieu of standard crown.
e. Ten (10') foot public utility easements on lot
frontage instead of sixteen (16') foot rear lot
utility easements.
The special circumstances or conditions which warrant these
deviations from the design standards are as follows:
a. Block 1 which is longer than the maximum 1,320
feet is so proposed because the rear of this block
backs onto unsubdivided property. The reason for
the uninterrupted length is to restrict access to
and from this unsubdivided land. A block wall
will be constructed along the rear of this block.
Block 10 is longer in order to restrict access
onto a potentially high traffic road planned for
future construction and will also have a block
wall along its rear; * Please note comment below.
b. The double fronting lots in Blocks 10 and 11 are
proposed for the purpose of limiting access onto a
major road planned for future construction as
stated in (b) above, moreover, access to these
lots will be restricted on one side with the
construction/placement of a physical barrier.
c. The justification for this exception is the
standard request by the utilities for a front yard
easement and that the design presented is the
final lot design, thus minimizing the right-of-way
dedication, maximizing the tax base and providing
easements that allow the placement of
safety/traffic signage and the maintenance
thereof.
d. Native type soils erode easily on minor storms and
inverted streets will help control shoulder erosion
and reduce County maintenance expenses.
e. A ten foot public utility easement is satisfactory
to power companies no longer requiring overhead
facilities at the rear of lots.
