and
WHEREAS, the developer has indicated in a letter dated January 16, 1997, that an Extension of
Time is being requested in order to provide additional time needed to submit and process the Final Plat for
Phase B. The developer states in part, "1 am planning on recording Phase 3035-B as soon as Phase 3035-A

and Zoning regarding whether a proposed method of assurance for the remainder of this development is

staff changed its recommendation to conditional approval, and

January 7,1991, per BOS Resolution No. 91-1. The Final Plat for Phase A was approved on January 20,
1992, per BOS Resolution No. 92-22. The first Extension of Time for the Preliminary Plan was approved

improvements within Phase A have been completed. No Final Plat has been submitted for the review of
Phase B, and
WHEREAS, the Preliminary Plan for Lakeridge Estates, Tract 3035, was originally approved with
a provision for the use of individual septic systems on each lot. However, the Mohave County
Environmental Health Division has stated in their review of this extension request, "It should be noted that
Lakeridge Estates now falls within a one mile radius of a water well that is high in nitrates. Any onsite
sewage system placed on these lots must be denitrification systems approved and constructed in accordance
with ADEQ and/or Mohave County requirements.", 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.

surrounding land uses.

No Final Plat has been submitted for review for Phase B; 2) A phase of this subdivision has
not been recorded in the two years prior to the expiration of the current extension of time;
and 3) No improvement plans have been approved within the last 12 months, and the County
has received no indication from the developer that improvements are under construction.
WHEREAS, at the public hearing before the Mohave County Planning and Zoning Commission on
March 12, 1997, the Commission recommended APPROVAL of an Extension of Time for the Preliminary
Plan subject to the following conditions:
1. Compliance with all conditions ofBOS Resolution Nos. 91-1, 93-53, 94-101, 95-80, and 96-

3. Upon the receipt of any additional submittals for processing, the adequacy of the drainage
and compatibility of this proposed subdivision with surrounding development will be
reviewed and any required changes or modifications will be the responsibility of the
developer.

in accordance with the requirements of the Subdivision Regulations, meeting the approval
ofthe County Engineer and the County Attorney's Office.

required on each lot, approved and constructed in accordance with Arizona Department of
Environmental Quality and/or Mohave County Environmental Health Division requirements.
Alternately, if during the development of the remainder of this project it is determined that
a new subdivision design conducive to the use of a central sewage disposal system is
necessary, such redesign may require an amendment to the approved Preliminary Plan or the
submittal of a new Preliminary Plan or Sketch Plan, depending on the extent of the changes.
