The developers are proposing to subdivide the subject property into four (4) residential lots, three (3) of which will remain within Garfield County and one (1) to be annexed into the Town of Carbondale. There exists a residential dwelling unit on the subject property which will remain on one of the residential lots designated for Garfield County. The exemption is being requested in order to create two (2) additional residential lots in Garfield County and one (1) additional lot for the Town of Carbondale. We feel that the demand for smaller residential lots (1-2 acres) is greater at this time, than lots in the 5 acre plus range. On behalf of the design team which assisted in the preparation of this application, we offer our full cooperation to you and the County Planning Staff in processing this application. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Respectfully, John L. Taufer Land Design Partnership JLT:jsw Enclosure P.O. Box 517 • Glenwood Springs, Colorado 81602 817 Colorado, Alpine Professional Building, Suite 102 (303) 945-2246 • • • • • • • Utilities and Drainage • • • • WATER SUPPLY Water for the subdivision will be provided by the Town of Carbondale water distribution system. A 6 -inch water line will be constructed to the site. This water line will tie into the existing 6 -inch water main located in the Crystal village Subdivision, adjacent to the east of the property. The new water line wil be constructed within exist- ing utility easements in the Crystal Village Subdivision, and within the proposed right-of-way and utility easements of the subject property. A fire hydrant will be constructed within the subdivision at the end of the new 6 -inch water line. This hydrant will be able to provide a fire flow of at least lnnn gallons per minute. SANITARY SEWAGE DISPOSAL The wastewater from the homes will be treated by individual on-site septic tanks and discharged into individual sewage disposal systems. The type and size of the disposal systems will depend on the depth to groundwater and the percolation rate of the soil, which will be deter- mined for each individual lot at a later date. The individual sewage disposal systems will then be designed to conform with Garfield County sewage disposal regulations. OTHER UTILITIES Existing natural gas, electric, telephone and cable TV lines are all currently in place within the Crystal Village Subdivision adjacent to the site. The respective utility companies are: Natural Gas: Rocky Mountain Gas Electric : Holy Cross Electric Telephone : Mountain Bell Cable TV Carbondale Cable TV The utility companies contacted have indicated that service can be provided to the subject property. DRAINAGE Off-site drainage is currently intercepted by an existing drainage ditch adjacent to the eastern boundary of the property, and by the existing ditch along the County Road. Drainage within the site will drain directly into the Crystal River. The quantity of runoff will he quite small because of the low density of the proposed development and due to the highly permeable soils native to the site. • • • • e Soils/Geology SOILS & GFDLOGY 41 The geology of the site consists of stream terrace deposits overlying Eagle valley Evaporite of the Permian age. The lower portion of the site near the Crystal River is a recent physiographic floodplain and 41 is at least in part subject to the 100 -year flood. The Eagle Malley Evaporite is a unit high in various salts but containing sandstone and siltsone beds and some limestone layers. The vaporatic salts are 41 fairly soluble and will be a consideration for this site. The surf_i- cial floodplain and terrace deposits are silt, sands, gravel and cob- bles deposited by previous levels of the Crystal River in this vicin- ity. Although on the surface, it appears that there are one or more sink 41 holes on the property, I believe that they are instead modified former drainages. The modification has been through what appears to be a fairly large fill area adjacent to the apex of the driveways near the 40 northeast corner of the property. Certainly one side of the "sink hole" in this location is the fill providing access to the northern most home in this area. It is obvious from the material on the 41 surface that asphalt and concrete blocks have been dumped into this area sometime in the past. 40 My recommendations for this site are to avoid development within the 100 -year flood plain. The steep slopes leading down to this lower. 41 1 floodplain should also be avoided; this may be an area sub- jected to slumping because of the steepness. Homes sited at the top of this bluff should be held back from the edge a horizontal distance equal to the vertical height above the floodplain. Site specific soils engineering will be required for all foundations. The site-specific soils engineering for the foundations should include investigation of the man -placed fill, the potential for high groundwater, and the possibility of subsidence due to the dissolution of the underlying Eagle Valley Evaporite. • • • • 7/C • 10C 370 , MATC Wrsr,-hu- USDA - SCS ADV/ • s • • • • • The Azeltine soil is deep and well drained. It formed in alluvium der- ived dominantly from sandstone and shale. Typically, the surface layer red- dish gray gravelly sandy loam 9 inches thick. The upper 7 inches of the underlying material is gravelly loam. The lower part to a depth of 60 inches is sand and gravel. The soil is calcareous throughout the profile. In some areas the surface layer is cobbly loam or sandy loam. Permeability of the Azeltine soil is rapid. Available water capacity is low. Effective rooting depth is 60 inches or more. Runoff is slow, and the hazard of water erosion is slight. This unit is used mainly for irrigated hay and pasture. It is also used for cropland,urban development, wildlife habitat, and rangeland. If this unit is used for hay and pasture, the main limitations are low available water capacity and small stones. Grasses and legumes grow well if adequate fertilizer is used. Using management that maintains optimum vigor and quality of forage plants is a good practice. Because these soils are droughty, applications of irrigation water should be light and frequent. Irrigation water can be applied by the corrugation, sprinkler, and flooding methods. If properly managed, this unit can produce 4 tons of irrigated grass hay per acre. This unit is moderately well suited to irrigated crops. If furrow or corrugation irrigation systems are used, runs should be on the contour or across the slope. If properly managed, this unit can produce 70 bushels of barely per acre. The potential plant community on this unit is mainly western wheat - grass, Indian ricegrass, needleandthread, big sagebrush, and Douglas rabbit - brush. Nevada bluegrass, prairie junegrass, and bottlebrush squirreltail are also present in the potential plant community. The average annual 10 production of air-dry vegetation is about 800 pounds per acre. Management practices suitable for use on this unit are proper grazing use and a planned grazing system. If the range vegetation is seriously deteriorated, seeding is needed. The main limitations for seeding are cobbles and stones. For successful seeding, prepare a seedbed and drill the seed. Brush mangement improves deteriorated areas of range that are producing more woody shrubs than were present in the potential plant community. If this unit is used for homesite development, the main limitation is w small stones. Population growth has resulted in increased construction of homes on this unit. Topsoil can be stockpiled and used to reclaim areas disurbed during construction. Removal of gravel and cobles in disturbed • areas is needed for best results when landscaping, particulary in areas used for lawns. If the density of housing is moderate to high, community sewage systems are needed to prevent contamination of water supplies as a result of • • • seepage from onsite sewage disposal systems. iVe The map unit is in capability subclass fir, irrigated, and VIe, nonirrigated. It is in Rolling Loam range site. 11,1p Jinni I Mo.Xi IC flIr A SOIL CHARACTERISTICS Depth to Bedrock :moc#ernrt-IA-y"deep over sand, gravel Texture • Surface :sandy loam Subsoil :sandy clay loam Substratup► :gravelly sandy loam, stony sandy loam Unified/AASIIO Classification:SM, SC, GP, GIi; A-2, A-4, A-1 Permeability (below 2 feet) :moderately rapid to rapid Percent Coarse Fragments 41 (gravel, cobble, stone) :30 to 80 percent below 2 feet Soil Reaction (pH) :7.4 - 7.8 Shrink -Swell Potential :low Potential Frost Action' (surface) t low Flood Hazard :none 41 Hydrologic Group :B Corrosivity - Steel :high - Concrete :low • 41 41 DEGREE & KIND OF LIMITATIONS (0 is Slight, M is Moderate, S is Severe) Septic Tank Absorption Fields :0* Sewage Lagoons :S - seepage Sanitary Landfill - Trench :3 - seepage - Area :S - seepage Shallow Excavations :S - cutbanks oave, small stones Dwellings w/basements :0 w/o basements :0 Local Roads and Streets :0 • SUITABILITY AS A SOURCE OF....
