WHEREAS, at a public hearing on September 14, 1994, the Mohave
County Planning and zoning Commission recommended acceptance of the
improvements and approval of the as-built plans based upon the
following:
The Mohave county Engineer, Harold J. Ganyo, P.E., in a
letter dated August 24, 1994, states: "All improvements
have been completed by the developer, and as-buil t plans
and reports have been submitted. The streets have been
inspected and substantially conform to the plans,
specifications, and County Standards.
"One possible exception to. this is :in meet:ing the
requirements of Standard Spec:ification No. 161C which states
the native material used to construct the street surface
base course shall be reasonably free of oversized rocks
larger than three inches :in diameter. In:it:ial soil samples
taken from the job s:ite by Kleinfelder, Inc., geotechn:ical
consul tants, indicated a 3% oversiz:ing which they v:iew as
reasonable. Reports based on the inspect:ion and compaction
tests of the constructed streets by SMA Engineering
Consultants states the material meets the requirements. The
certif:ication on the as-built plans by the Engineer of
Record states the improvements are in compliance.
"Dur:ing the f:inal inspection, random areas were chosen and
the exposed surface rocks over three inches were then
measured within 25 square foot areas. The average amount of
oversized rock was calculated to be 4.4% of the area. The
oversized rocks were predom:inately four inches :in size."
Mr. Ganyo's recommendations:
"I would recommend the Commission give due cons:ideration to
the general area, the area being developed, the low traffic
volume that w:ill occur, the pos:itions taken by the Engineer
of Record and the material test consultants, the relat:ive
size of the oversize, and find that 3-4% oversized mater:ial
is reasonable."
WHEREAS, the not:ice of hear:ing was published :in the Kingman Da:ily
Miner, a newspaper of general circulation, in Kingman, Mohave County,
Ar:izona on September 18, 1994, as required by the Arizona Revised
Statutes and the Mohave County Zoning Regulations.
