Popis: The proposed Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office Complex is located within the historic Original Phoenix Townsite (OPT); three historic buildings constructed between 1908 and 1944 were once present. The proposed office building is within, or near, a 250 ft buffer around two known prehistoric archaeological sites: La Villa—AZ T:12:148(ASM), and AZ T:12:95(ASM). Both sites have ill-defined site boundaries because of urban development that obscures evidence of prehistoric archaeological sites. A relict canal alignment is also projected to cross the parcel. In addition, the project area is within the OPT, AZ T:12:42(ASM). Because the proposed project area is located within the OPT and between two prehistoric archaeological sites, LSD suggests the potential for intact subsurface cultural deposits is high, and recommends the design and implementation of a treatment plan for phased data recovery. The proposed archaeological investigations should be reviewed by ASM under the delegated authority of the Arizona Board of Regents to issue permits for archaeological investigations on state land and to review treatment plans, research proposals and the technical reports that summarize the results of excavations. In addition, the proposed investigations should comply with requirements of the COP under Section 802(A.1) of the COP Historic Preservation Ordinance.
