VALLE VISTA REDRESS PROGRAM
INSTRUCTIONS: The attached Application for Reimbursable Costs must be
completely filled out. Please type or print legibly. All required
documents must be submitted with this application. Failure to submit a
complete application will delay its processing. The completed
application must be sent to: Mohave County Attorney, Valle Vista
Redress Program, P.O. Box 7000, Kingman, Arizona 86402-7000. This
application will be used as the sole basis for determining the
eligibility of Valle Vista lot owners to participate in the redress
program established by the Federal Trade Commission and administered
by the Mohave County Attorney. The Valle Vista Property Owners
Association and any entity owned or controlled by the Valley Vista
Property Owners Association are not eligible to participate in this
redress program. No applications will be accepted after
_________________ (one year from the effective date of the Amended
MOU).
REIMBURSABLE COSTS: A Valle Vista lot owner may apply for payment to
Mohave Electric Cooperative of an amount not to exceed $8,000 per lot
to offset "reimbursable costs" of electric utility installation by
Mohave Electric Cooperative to their lots. An eligible lot owner may
receive funds from the Utility Account for the installation of
electric utilities to a maximum of three (3) lots over the duration of
this redress program since its start in 1997. A separate Application
for Reimbursable Costs must be submitted for each lot. Under this
redress program, the "reimbursable costs" of electric utility
installation for which an eligible Valle Vista lot owner may seek
payment shall include the cost of extending electric power lines to
the lot and the cost of installing a transformer and/or secondary box
on the lot, but shall exclude the cost of the conduit, trenching,
backfilling, electric wiring from the transformer or secondary box to
the residence's electric meter, and electric wiring within the
residence. "Reimbursable costs" shall not include any costs paid or
incurred by the Valle Vista lot owner prior to August 20, 1997.
NOTIFICATION: After the completed application has been submitted, the
Mohave County Attorney will review the application and notify the
applicant as to whether the application has been denied or approved.
If the application has been denied, the Mohave County Attorney will
inform the applicant of the reasons for such non-approval. If the
application has been approved, the Mohave County Attorney will inform
the applicant of the amount of funds that shall be paid to Mohave
Electric Cooperative from the Utility Account.
PAYMENT: After approval of the application by the Mohave County
Attorney, the applicant must submit a copy of the signed "actual cost
contract" with Mohave Electric Cooperative. Upon receipt of the actual

APPLICATION FOR ADDITIONAL PAYMENT
INSTRUCTIONS: All reported information must be legible (print/type)
and complete. The completed application, along with a copy of Mohave
Electric Cooperative's "adjustment to actual costs," must be sent to:
Mohave County Attorney, Valle Vista Redress Program, P.O. Box 7000,
Kingman, Arizona 86402-7000.
This application is to be used when Mohave Electric Cooperative issues
an "adjustment to actual cost" and advises the lot owner that a
further payment is due because the actual cost of electric utility
installation is greater than the estimate set forth in the "actual
cost contract." If the Mohave County Attorney confirms that the
initial payment to Mohave Electric Cooperative from the Utility
Account on behalf of the lot owner was less than $8,000, the Mohave
County Attorney will authorize a second transfer of monies from the
Utility Account to Mohave Electric Cooperative, provided however, that
the total payments from the Utility Account for the specified lot may
not exceed $8,000 or total reimbursable costs, whichever is less.
