About the Client

Based in Kingman, Arizona, the Client has over a decade of experience supporting Mohave County Public Works. Since its founding in 2016, the company has specialized in a range of civil engineering services, including street improvements, open channel design, sewer extensions, horizontal control plans, and grading and utility design for Recreational Vehicle (RV) parks. It has built strong relationships not only in Kingman but also in nearby communities like Bullhead City and Lake Havasu.

Project Scope and Constraints

The project involved designing and grading a 4.08-acre site for an RV park, with the objective of maximizing the number of RV spaces while meeting all applicable design and regulatory standards. These were the key requirements and challenges:
  • Flood Zones: Two sides of the property fell within designated flood zones, which could not be disturbed or developed.
  • Setback Requirements: Mandatory setbacks on all sides limit the usable area for RV spaces.
  • Standard RV Dimensions: Each space needed to accommodate standard RV sizes, impacting layout flexibility.
  • Sanitation and Sewage Compliance: The design had to meet regulatory requirements for on-site sewage and sanitation infrastructure.
  • Spatial Offsets: Specific distances were required between certain site elements, such as: A minimum 50-foot separation between the retention basin and the septic tank.
These constraints require a strategic and efficient design approach to ensure optimal space utilization while maintaining compliance with all applicable regulations.

The Intrivis Solution:

We developed a strategically efficient site plan that overcame every constraint and maximized the client’s investment:

  • 29 compliant RV spaces designed for full functionality and maneuverability

  • Two retention basins and effective grading for stormwater management

  • Regulatory-compliant sewer system tailored to site geometry

  • Proactive collaboration with the client and county agencies for smooth approvals

How Our Solution Created Value for the Client

Our design enabled the client to maximize the number of RV spaces within a constrained site, directly increasing the project's revenue potential. By ensuring full compliance with regulatory requirements, the project encountered minimal county feedback, helping to expedite the approval process. Our collaborative approach—marked by regular updates and responsiveness to client input—resulted in a successful outcome that aligned with the client’s goals. Satisfied with our performance, the client engaged us for additional projects at other locations.
