B) Staff Comments 1) Tne proposed parcel sits in an agricultural area, immediately surrounded by 35+ parcels. However, the adjacent section to the south contains several smaller tracts. Between 1975 and 1982 approximately 10 lots (being 10 acres or smaller) were created through the exemption process. These lots are within one mile of this proposal. An additional two (2) lots (10 acres and 14 acres) were created by exemption in 1980 and 1982. There was recently an exemption conditionally approved in the Rulison area which will create four (4) additional lots under 10 acres in size, it all conditions are met.
