Tlterefore, up to four (4) parcels can be createcl througlr tlre exernption llrocess. Section 8.52 allows a natural split due to a natural feature that "prevents joint use of tlre lrrollosed tracts". The gulch in question is approxirmately I Z feet across, arrd drailrs considerable acreage to the north (BLM propetty). Fielclwork concluctecl by staff foturd considerable debris and scouring along the rqrpel reaches of the gulch, indicating considerable past flows. In adclition, the nortltent portiou of the prollerty is split by the County road ROW. Zonittg. All ol'tlre parcels exceetl the two (2) acre rninimurn lot size consistent wit| the A/IVRD zotte district. Tlre area between New Castle and Silt along CR 214 ittclrrdes densitie; generally consistent with the proposed exemption (see assessor's rnal) on paBc-' b- ). C.[-egal Access.

The well pennit applications ancl the application to w est Divide have been filed (see Marclr l7tlr, 1995 letter fi.orn Sherry Caloia on page -?-). Staff sttggests that the well pennits antl Conseryallcy Distlict contract be a conclition of approval. Staff has referred the applicatiorr to the State Engineer's Office. No response has beelt received to date. Staffwotrld suggest that a favorable respoltse liorn the State be a condition of allproval. Sewer will be provided by ISDS. Soils on the site are predominantly Olney loarn (#5 l), which is cottsiclered to have moclerate constraints for ISDS, although the prilnary cottstrairtt is based on percolation rates, which woulcl be perfonrrecl at tlre tirne ol-building perrnit sublnittal. o B E. Slate a [,ocal I lealth dards.No State or Local health standards are applicable to the application, witlr the exception of Colorado Depaftrnent of Healtft ISDS setback standards, which should be verifiecl by an engineer. Drainage. A 20 foot drainage easement frorn the centerline of the drainage is showrr on the proposed sketclr plan. Irile Protection. The Fire District has not responcled to the application.
