Arbaney LOCATION: A tract of land situated in Lot 12, Section 35, T7S, R88W, located approximately 1 1/2 miles east of Carbondale, off of County Road 472 also known as 0112 Willow Lane. SITE DATA: The site consists of a 6.75 acre parcel. WATER: Existing well SEWER: Existing and Proposed Individual Sewage Disposal System ACCESS: Existing access drive EXISTING ZONING: A/R/RD ADJACENT ZONING: A/R/RD in all directions I. RELATIONSHIP TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN The site is located in the Carbondale Urban Area of Influence as indicated on the Garfield County Comprehensive Plan Management Districts Map. II. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSAL A. Site Description: The site is very level, with a single family residence and related lawns and pasture. Adjacent land uses include single family residence, pasture land, and the Carbondale Rodeo Grounds. B. Project Description: The applicants propose to divide the 6.75 acre parcel into two tracts of approximately 2.44 acres and 4.31 acres. C. History: A smaller one acre parcel was split off the existing tract in 1970 prior to Subdivision Regulations. An exemption request in 1976 by D.L. and M.L. Kirkland proposing the same division as the current request was denied by the Board of County Commissioners. Problems with the water table, access, and land use patterns were discussed. III.MAJOR ISSUES AND CONCERNS 1. The applicants well permit was approved by the State Engineers Office in 1967 for domestic use, and therefore can serve up to three dewlling units. Each parcel should receive a deeded interest in the existing well with easements for access and maintenance of the well and waterlines shown on the exemption plat. /— • • 2. Based on soils information submitted by the applicant, the site is partially located in an area of high water table and severe limitations on septic systems. As a result, plat notes should be included on the Exemption Plat indicating that engineered foundations and septic systems may be required. 3. Comments have been received from an adjacent property owner objecting to the proposed split based on the increase in population density and traffic. (See letter page ). 4. The site is located within an area referred to as Jack Sharp Tracts. This area has been subdivided into numerous relatively small parcels over many years. Garfield County has approved 15 exemptions and denied 2 exemptions within approximately a one mile radius of the site. 5. Based on the density of the area, size of the proposed lots, and concern regarding the high water table and the proliferation of the septic systems, it is suggested that the proposed split be the last allowed by exemption off the parcel. A plat note should be added stating this fact. IV. FINDINGS 1. That proper posting and public notice was provided as required for the meeting before the Board of County Commissioners. 2. That the meeting before the Board of County Commissioners was extensive and complete, that all pertinent facts, matters and issues were submitted and that all interested parties were heard at that meeting. 3. That for the above stated and other reasons, the proposed exemption is in the best interest of the health, safety, morals, convenience, order, prosperity and welfare of the citizens of Garfield County. V. RECOMMENDATION APPROVAL, with the following conditions: 1. That the following plat notes be included on the exemption plat. a) No further divisions by exemption from definition will be allowed. b) Engineered foundations and septic systems may be required. c) That all irrigation ditch easements be recognized and maintained as existing and in place. 2. That each parcel receive a deeded interest in the existing well and that easements for all waterlines, and for access and maintenance of the well be included on the exemption plat and in any legal descriptions. 3. That all shares of irrigation water associated with the property be divided proportionately between the two lots. 4. That $200.00 in School Impact fees for the creation of one new lots be paid prior to final approval. 5. All representations of the applicant, either with the application or stated at the hearing before the Board of County Commissioners, shall be considered conditions of approval. 0132 Willow Lane Carbondale, CO 81623 Sept. 19, 1985 Board of County Commissioners Suite 301 Garfield County Court House Glenwood Springs, CO 81601 Gentlemen: In regard to the John R. & Ardeen L. Arbaney property situated in Lot 12, Section 15 T7S, R88W of the 6th P.M. and the subdivision. We are not in favor of any more subdividing in this area. If we had wanted to live in a populated area we would have chosen to live in town. Also we are not in favor of the road easement going across our property to become twice or three times as busy as it is now.
