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 ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH DIOCESE OF
TUCSON FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 12101 WEST MOORE ROAD.
WHEREAS, Roman Catholic Church Diocese of Tucson are the owners of the property
located at 12101 West Moore Road, 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 manufactured
home on the property located at 12101 West Moore Road 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 May 2, 2000, the applicant appealed the decision to the Town Floodplain
Administrator requesting a variance to permit a manufactured home to be placed on the property
because the use of the manufactured home would primarily be for small group meetings,
catechetical instruction on Sunday mornings for a small number of children for one hour, and a
place to distribute food and clothing to the needy; 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 enforce 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
