SECTION 11, TOWNSHIP 23 NORTH, RANGE 17 WEST, FROM A-R/36A (AGRICULTURAL-
RESIDENTIAL/THIRTY-SIX ACRE MINIMUM LOT SIZE) ZONE TO A-R/18A
(AGRICULTURAL-RESIDENTIAL/EIGHTEEN ACRE MINIMUM LOT SIZE) ZONE, IN THE
MOHAVE COUNTY GENERAL AREA, MOHAVE COUNTY, ARIZONA.
WHEREAS, at the special meeting of the Mohave County Board of Supervisors held on March 22,
1999, a public hearing was conducted to determine whether approval should be granted to Rezone the above-
described property as requested by Raymond Schaffer of Kingman, Arizona, and
WHEREAS, this property is located north of the City of Kingman, west of Stockton Hill Road. The
site is accessed from Stockton Hill Road via xvest on Calle Muertos to Cherum Road, then north on Cherum
Road to Shadow Canyon Road, then northwesterly on Shadow Canyon Road approximately one and one-
half miles to the center of Section 11, then south on an unnamed midsection I&E approximately one-quarter
mile to the northeast comer of the site. The property has a single-family residence on it. The terrain is
rolling hills, except for the extreme southern portion of the property, which has mountain grades with large
boulders. The surrounding land uses consist of vacant parcels and a few widely scattered single-fancily
residences. There are no significant drainage patterns, and
WHEREAS, the applicant requests this zone change to allow for development. The applicant
proposes to divide the 40.38-acre parcel into two approximately 18-net-acre parcels. The Mohave County
General Plan designates this area as a Rural Development Area, and
WHEREAS, a review of FEMA FIRM Panel #040058-2000B indicates the parcel described to be
in Zone C, not in the FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area. Additional comment from Mohave County
Floodplain: A wash crosses the parcel--do not obstruct, and
WHEREAS, this item was recommended for approval by a unanimous vote of the Planning and
Zoning Commission during their regular meeting on October 14, 1998, and subsequently approved by
unanimous vote of the Board of Supervisors during their November 2, 1998 regular meeting. Staff' later
discovered an internal inconsistency within the Long Mountain Area Plan, which rendered this rezone in
violation of the one-dwelling-per-thirty-six-acre density allowed by the official area plan map. The item
was reconsidered and referred back to the Planning and Zoning Commission during the December 7, 1998,
regular meeting of the Board of Supervisors. The original request and staff recommendation are presented
RESOLUTION NO. 99-53 Page 2
herein simultaneously with a proposed amendment to the Long Mountain Area Plan. This will allow
rezoning of this and other parcels within Sections 11 and 12 to one dwelling per ten acres, the density
described in the text of BOS Resolution No. 92-198, which originally approved the Long Mountain Area
Plan, and
WHEREAS, the following described Findings of Fact are for the above-captioned item:
a. All notices have been advertised and posted according to regulations.
b. The proposed action and effect complies with the Mohave County General Plan.
c. The site is adequate for the action intended and the use is consistent with the surrounding
land uses and terrain.
d. The neighboring area contains land uses similar to the above-proposed action.
e. The site has legal access.
f. There are no significant enviroun~ental features affecting the site.
WHEREAS, at the public hearing before the Mohave County Planning and Zoning Conunission on
January 13, 1999, the Commission recommended APPROVAL for a Rezone subject to the following:
