A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND TOWN COUNCIL OF THE TOWN OF MARANA,
ARIZONA, ACTING AS THE MARANA FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT BOARD,
APPROVING A VARIANCE TO TITLE 21, FLOODPLAIN AND EROSION HAZARD
MANAGEMENT CODE, REQUESTED BY GERALD D. & SHARON K. PETERS FOR
PROPERTY LOCATED AT 13612 NORTH JANE ROAD.
WHEREAS, Gerald D. & Sharon K. Peters are the owners of the property located at 13612
North Jane Ave., Marana, Arizona and located within the designated Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) designated floodway; and
WHEREAS, the property owner has applied for a building permit to place a prefab barn on
the property located at 13612 North Jane Ave. which was denied due to the fact that residential use
of property located within the designated floodway is prohibited under Title 21 of the Marana Land
Use and Development Code; and
WHEREAS, on March 23, 2000, Mr. Peters appealed the decision to the Town Floodplain
Administrator requesting a variance to permit a prefab Barn to be placed on the property because the
use of the prefab barn would primarily be for storage purposes with a small part of the barn to be
used for shop space. The equipment to be stored will not pose any unusual risk in the event of a
flood. The structure is a simple "quonset" structure with a gravel floor; and
WHEREAS, the Town Council, acting as the Floodplain Management Board, and pursuant
to the Marana Land Use and Development Code, Title 21, Floodplain and Erosion Hazard
Management Regulations, is empowered to adopt and enfome such variance, and upon approval
must (1) Notify the applicant that flood insurance premiums will increase and that construction
below the 100-year flood elevation increases the risk to life and property; and (2) Maintain a record
of all variance actions and report them to their biennial report to FEMA.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Mayor and Council of the Town of
Marana, Arizona, acting as the Floodplain Management Board, that the variance requested for the
property located at 13612 North Jane Ave., Marana, Arizona, is hereby granted subject to the
following conditions:
The Applicant shall supply an acceptable agreement, which the various Town officers
and employees are authorized and directed execute, holding the Town of Marana
harmless in the event the storage shed, property, persons, etc., are damaged by flood
activities and such agreement shall be recorded by the Town Clerk's office;
