Diann Robertson -Amendments to an Approved Land Use Change Permit (LPPA 7511) Dear Howdy and John: The application for an amendment to an approved Land Use Change Permit as approved
by Resolution 2011 -75, proposes to add a 50 foot x 60 foot building, 21 feet in height to the property located at 1879 County Road 264, west of the City of Rifle, Colorado. As proposed,
this structure will be attached to the existing office building and used for storing parts for his fabrication business (Exhibit A) . This property also received approval for storage
including a storage yard and office/warehouse structure (Resolution 80-290) and a 30' x 40' building expansion of office facilities and additional parking for vehicles (Resolution 84-200).
The property is currently developed with three metal structures; two one-storey buildings; and, a one two-storey building. The area surrounding these structures consists of asphalt,
gravel and/or compacted dirt that are being used for the storage of materials and equipment for the company. The entire parcel is enclosed by an eight foot tall chain link fence. The
surrounding properties consist of two residential homes adjacent and north of the site and light industrial buildings and oil and gas machinery/equipment sprinkled along the subject
site's access road. The property is generally flat, sloping down to the southwest at grades less than four percent. The entire site is disturbed with some weeds. As per Section 4-106
of the Unified Land Use Resolution of 2008, as amended (ULUR), the Director shall review the amendment request to determine whether the amendment is either a minor or substantial modification
using the criteria in Section 4-106 (C). Staff has conducted an analysis of the criteria as follows: Page 1 of 3
1. Comply with all requirements of this Code. Staff Comment: The Applicant indicates that the property adheres to the ULUR. The proposed structure will be set back 25 feet from the rear
property line and 21 feet tall (roof's apex) which adheres to the Resource Lands -Gentle Slope zone district standards. 2. Do not conflict with the Comprehensive Plan. Staff Comment:
The property is located in Medium High Residential (2 to <6 AC/DU) of the Garfield County Comprehensive Plan of 2030. In general, this application is in conformance with the comprehensive
plan however, it does not reflect the specific land use deSignation as provided in the Future Land Use Map. There are no Intergovernmental Agreements that affect this parcel. 3. Do not
change the character of the Development. Staff Comment: The proposed building will not change the character of the site which is light industrial in appearance. 4. Do not alter the basic
relationship of the Development to adjacent property. Staff Comment: Presently and in the past the subject property is used for light industrial activities. The two existing residences
adjacent and to the north of the site have co-existed with this type of land use for years and the introduction of another building will not change their relationship. Also, storage
of parts within a building will screen them from the public's view. 5. Do not change the uses permitted. Staff Comment: Resolution 80-290 permits the use of storage on the property.
6. Do not require amendment or abandonment of any easements or rights-of-way. Staff Comment: The proposed building is located over a water line easement recorded under Reception Number
357654, Book 660, Page 719 and Reception Number 426407, Book, Page 990. This easement has been transferred to the property owner, Howdy and Diann Robertson, from SourceGas Distribution,
LLC by a Quit Claim Deed (Exhibit B). 7. Do not increase the density. Staff Comment: Not applicable. 8. Do not increase the zone district dimensions to an amount exceeding the maximum
dimension in the applicable zone district in Table 3-201. Staff Comment: The Resource Lands -Gentle Slope zone dimension standards are not exceeded by the proposed building. 9. Do not
decrease the amount of the following to an amount below the minimum required in the applicable zone district: a. Amount of dedicated open space. Staff Comment: Not applicable. The Resource
Land -Gentle Slope zone district nor any of the Resolutions applicable to this property specify a dedicated percentage of open space to be maintained on the parcel. b. The size of or
change in the locations, lighting, or orientation of originally approved signs. Page 2 013
Staff Comment: The proposed building will not require signage or alter/change any existing signage on-site. The Applicant will adhere to Condition 6 memorialized in Resolution 2011-75
for the new building which states: "AI/lighting associated with the property shal/be directed inward and downward towards the interior of the property. " c. Any zone district dimensions
in Table 3-201 . Staff Comment: The proposed building meets the district's zone standards. Based on Staff's analysis of the criteria, it has been determined that the proposed amendment
to the approved Land Use Change Permit complies with the criteria and therefore will be considered a Minor Modification. The Director hereby approves your amendment as memorialized in
the attached and modified Land Use Change Permit. Respectfully, Fred Jarman, AICP Director of Building and Planning Department Page 3 of 3
