ANALYSIS:
As mentioned in the review comments sent out to the applicant’s engineer on December 24, 2018; the creation of condominiums is subject to Arizona Revised Statutes Title 33 Chapter 9 Article 2.
In 2007, the Arizona Legislature adopted legislation that required municipalities to certify that all new subdivision had an assured 100-year water supply. On February 11, 2011 the City of San Luis was designated by the Arizona Department of Water Resources (ADWR) as having a 100-year adequate water supply. Consequently, individual subdivisions do not have to submit additional certification.
