PUBLIC HEARING

Cultural Resource Survey of 13.4 acre site for 139 unit apartment complex AKA Lofts on Continental.

PROPERTY INFORMATION:

Address:  5331 E Cortland Ave
Assessor's Parcel Number: 113-37-001E
Property Owner:   SELNA RAYMOND JOSEPH TRUSTEE ; MONGINI MICHAEL TRUSTEE - Miramonte Homes contractual interest.
Applicant:  Cornerstone Environmental for Mogollon Engineering
City Staff:  Mark Reavis HPO

REQUESTED ACTION:

Concur with HPOs request for a Cultural Resource Study Review "Letter Report" and accept the report and its conclusions. The report is for a site survey of a proposed residential project with 139 apartment style for rent units on 13.4 acres consisting of 2 story apartments. NOTE: report has determined the likelihood of Cultural Resources. The HPC shall review the findings of the "Redacted Report" along with the HPOs determinations and recommended actions.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

The HPO reviewed the findings of the Cultural Resource Survey and the non-redacted content report. The report notes two isolated occurrences of prehistoric native cultural evidence. The non-redacted report reviewed by the HPO notes many known and recorded sites within the general area. With such information and as noted in the report there is a high potential of inadvertent discovery of significant archeological resources present in the subsurface areas of the site. The HPO recommends acceptance of the Cultural Resource Study "letter report" as presented and its conclusions. The HPO further recommends that the CRS is the initial step in compliance with 10-30.30.050 and that additional reporting and artifact recovery may be required. The HPO recommends that on-site archeological monitoring be a requirement of the developments approval for ground disturbing activities; and the project developer shall submit documentation of a contract (or letter of commitment to contract with) with a qualified cultural resource firm for on-site ground disturbance monitoring as a provision of project approval.
