WHEREAS, at the regular meeting of the Mohave County Board of Supervisors held on May 6, 1996, a public hearing was conducted to determine whether approval should be granted for an Extension of Time as requested by Don Matuzak of M&L Properties, Bullhead City, Arizona, for the above described Preliminary Subdivision Plan, and for the accompanying abandonment-reversion to acreage of Rio Hacienda, Tract 1224. M&L Properties is the new owner of Phase B of Tract 4104. The engineer of record is Burton Engineering, Inc. of Bullhead City, Arizona, and WHEREAS, the subdivision is located less than one mile south of Bullhead City, east of State Highway 95, and northeast of the corner of Camp Mohave Road and Calle Del Media. The Preliminary Plan depicts 27 acres subdivided into 82 single-family lots, and WHEREAS, the developer of the project has indicated in a letter dated March 4, 1996, that an Extension of Time is being requested based on the following: "M&L Properties, an Arizona General Partnership, is the record owner of the parcels which are the subject of the requested extension. M&L Properties has only recently acquired the parcels as a result of a loan default one step back in the line of title...M&L Properties is actively marketing this property and hopes to not have to finish the subdivision; however, because the engineering as approved by Mohave County Engineering, Mohave County Planning and Zoning, and Mohave County Board of Supervisors, does at least appear to blend in thoughtfully with adjoining subdivisions, it does make some sense to us to maintain the viability of the proposed subdivision while awaiting sale. As we understand it, allowing this subdivision to lapse would cause it to revert to 7 or 8 one-acre lots which, while these may provide a greater net profitability for us, these may not blend that well with the adjoining single family 8,000 square foot lots.", and WHEREAS, the Preliminary Plan for this tract was approved by the Mohave County Board of Supervisors on April 2, 1990, per BOS Resolution No. 90-80, and . . PAGE 2 OF 3 BK 2730 PG 944 FEE~9625992 RESOLUTION NO. 96-146 Page 2 WHEREAS, Board of Supervisors Resolution Nos. 90-312 and 90-313, approved on November 5, 1990, provided for the conditional abandonment of roadways and easements, and the abandonment-reversion to acreage of the lots within the portions of Rio Hacienda, Tract 1224, planned for subdivision as Palm Estates II, Tract 4104. The condition of approval for each resolution was that Tract 4104 be recorded within one year, or the portions of Rio Hacienda proposed for abandonment would revert to their previous condition, and WHEREAS, the first Extension of Time of the conditional abandonments was approved by the Board of Supervisors on November 4, 1991, per BOS Resolution No. 91-292, with the Extension of Time expiring April 2, 1992, to coincide with the expiration of the Preliminary Plan of Tract 4104. The first Extension of Time of the approved Preliminary Plan was combined with the second Extension of Time for the accompanying abandonment resolutions, per BOS Resolution No. 92-108, expiring April 2, 1993. All subsequent Extensions of Time combined approval of both the Preliminary Plan and the abandonment of portions Rio Hacienda, Tract 1224. The second Extension of Time was granted on AprilS, 1993, per BOS Resolution No. 93-83. The third Extension of Time was approved on May 2, 1994, per BOS Resolution No. 94-133. The fourth Extension of Time was approved on April 3, 1995, per BOS Resolution No. 95-129. Subdivision Regulation Article 3.10-1 states: "Upon application to the Commission and prior to the expiration of the time limit, extensions in increments of one (1) year may be granted by the Board of Supervisors if the subdivider is actively processing the Final Plat. If such action is not taken then all proceedings relating to the plat shall be terminated.", and WHEREAS, the first phase of this subdivision, Tract 4104-A, was recorded on June II, 1993. At that time the Mohave County Assessor's Office recognized the abandonment of the roadways and easements, and the reversion to acreage of the lots within the portion of Rio Hacienda, Tract 1224, to be subdivided as Tract 4104. If the approved Preliminary Plan for Tract 4104 was allowed to expire, the second phase of Palm Estates II, Tract 41 04-B, would not be processed or recorded, resulting in a parcel of approximately 5.98 acres of un subdivided land west of and adjacent to Tract 4104-A, and WHEREAS, this will be the fifth Extension of Time, and WHEREAS, the following are Findings of Fact for the above captioned item: a. All notices have been advertised and posted according to regulations. b. The proposed action complies with the Mohave County General Plan, and the property is designated as an Urban Development Area. c. The site is adequate for the action intended and the proposal is consistent with the surrounding land uses, d. This request for an extension complies with the Extension of Time Policy. WHEREAS, at the public hearing before the Mohave County Planning and Zoning Commission on April 10, 1996, the Commission recommended APPROVAL of an Extension of Time for the Preliminary Plan of Palm Estates II, Tract 4104, and an Extension of Time for the abandonment of roadways and easements, and the abandonment-reversion to acreage of portions of Rio Hacienda, Tract 1224, subject to the following conditions: . . .
