A RESOLUTION SETTING FORTH APPROVAL OF A PRELIMINARY SUBDIVISION
PLAN FOR THE OVERLOOK, TRACT 4137, LOCATED IN THE E~ NE~ SECTION
14, TOWNSHIP 19 NORTH, RANGE 22 WEST, LOCATED IN THE SOUTH MOHAVE
VALLEY AREA, MOHAVE COUNTY, ARIZONA
WHEREAS, at the regular meeting of the Mohave County Board
of Supervisors held on June 3, 1991, a public hearing was
conducted to determine the
approval of
the pre 1 iminary
subdivision plan for THE OVERLOOK, Tract 4137, and
WHEREAS, the owner/developer of this project is Watson
Pacific Corp. out of Santa Monica, California.
The engineer
responsible for plan preparation and drainage study of the
Overlook tract is Holland West, Inc., Bullhead City, Arizona, and
---
"WHEREAS, the project site is approximately one half (1/2)
mile east of Highway 95; it is accessed by taking Highway 95
approximately one half (1/2) mile south of Bullhead's city limits
to Valencia Road, then approximately three quarters (3/4) of a
mile east to the southwest corner of this project, and
WHEREAS, the size of this development is approximately
eighty (80) acres.
The developer proposes 273 lots having a
minimum lot size of 7000 square feet. The overall density is 3.4

dwelling units per gross acre. The acreage breakdown is 54 acres
reserved for single family residences, 20.8 acres for dedicated
rights-of-way and 5.6 acres for drainage and open spaces, and
WHEREAS, water will be supplied by the Bermuda Water
Company.
The sewage treatment will be provided for an off-site
regional facility.
Gas will be supplied by Southwest Gas and
electricity will be provided by Mohave Electric Company, and
WHEREAS, the Commission at their meeting on May 8, 1991 did
recommend conditional approval of the preliminary subdivision
plan for Tract 4137, with the following noted:
1. A petition of exception request is submitted as
follows:
a. Eight (8') foot public utility easements on lot
frontage instead of sixteen (16') foot rear lot
utility easements
b. All street sections are to be inverted crown in
lieu of standard crown.
c. Non-radial lot lines/lot widths less than 40'.
d. Article 6.6-1B (No lots with double frontage).
e. Block lengEhs are in excess of standard lengths.
f. Half or partial width right-of-way widths.
The developer states the special circumstances or conditions
which warrant these deviations from the design standards are
as follows:
a. The eight (8') foot utility easement along the
front of the lots is preferred by the utility
companies for underground services.
b. Native type soils erode easily on minor storms and
inverted streets will help control shoulder
erosion and reduce County maintenance expenses.

c. Curvilinear street designs are being used to
accommodate the circulations patterns for this
subdivision as well as the drainage flows.
d. Double frontage lots are permitted when provisions
for vehicle non-access easements are made.
e. Block lengths present no special problems. The
interior of this subdivision has several access
points.
f. The request for a partial width right-of-way is
required for several reasons:
1) Sterling Road at present dead-ends at the
west subdivision boundary with no provision
for acquiring right-of-way to extend Sterling
Road east along the section line. A partial
width right-of-way, 40' south of the section
line (north line of Section 14) would allow
this road to continue through the subdivision
and thereby improve the traffic circulation.
2) A partial width right-of-way is also
necessary because of a 35' Transwestern
Pipeline Co. easement north of the north line
of Section 14, a 25 I Mohave Electric Co.
easement south of the north line of Section
14, and the physical presence of large power
poles along the north line of Section 14.
3) The approximate distance of partial width
right-of-way is only for 200'. At the
intersection of Sterling Road and Wonderview
Lane the right-of-way becomes a 60' local
road and will continue through the
subdivision as Sterling Way.
The Commission recommends approval of the Petitions of
Exceptions based on the aforementioned justifications.
2. The conditional approval of this subdivision is based
on the understanding of the Planning and Zoning
Commission that all streets within the subdivision will
be constructed and paved with asphaltic concrete in
accordance with Standard Specifications #171 and
#101.10D or better; the streets shall include curb and
gutter; use of inverted crowns is accepted; a water
supply and distribution system including fire flow will
be constructed to serve each lot; grading and drainage
related improvements will be made to extend underground
electric and telephone service to each lot in
accordance with Arizona Corporation Commission
regulations and as recommended by the design engineer
in the submitted drainage reports; as approved by
Public Works Department, run off will be contained
