On January 30, 2025, the Navajo County Board of Supervisors approved a new Design & Construction Standards & Specifications manual. This guide aims to assist in the design and construction of public roadways and infrastructure within the county.
The manual is intended for developers, contractors, and engineering consultants. It sets clear expectations and technical requirements to ensure consistency and efficiency throughout planning, design, and construction phases while prioritizing safety.
"Navajo County is dedicated to creating an environment where businesses and communities can thrive," said Jason Whiting, Chairman of the Navajo County Board of Supervisors. "By adopting this manual, we are not only setting a clear path for developers but also ensuring that safety, quality, and transparency remain at the forefront of every project."
The document covers several critical areas including land division, roadway design, traffic engineering, environmental analysis, and utility management. It also details standards for grading control, landscape irrigation, and right-of-way access management.
For further details on the manual or inquiries regarding its implementation, individuals can visit the Navajo County website or contact William Flake at the Public Works Department.
