Lendscape Anchitrectrune / Land Plenning June 1 1, 2001 Garfield County Board of County Commisstoners 109 8th Street Glenwood SPrings, Colorado 81601 Re: Final Amended Plat - LaFrenz Property Dear Commissioners, 9O9 Colonado Avenue o Box ?271 o Glenrazood Spnings'CO El1604 (97o) 945-1337 o FAX (97A) 94=-7914 on behalf of Thomas & cecitia Lalrenz,I am pleased to submit this application to request approval for a Final Amended Plat. The request consists of amending the lot boundaries of five lSjpUttea Antler Orchard Development (AOD) Plat No'l.lots that are owned by the LaFre:ii. The subject AOD lots were platted in 1906 and consist of Tracts 29 and36 and portions of Tracts 28,30 and37 respectively' The property consists of 34.74acres and is situated in Section 25, Township 5 South' il;.9) west of the La p.rra. The properry is situated adjacent to and south of the LaFrerusubdivision Exemption that w;s recently approved by Garfield County' The proposed amendment does not increase the number of lots previously platted' The purpose of the proposed amendment is to provide a-better overall lot configuration that is more suitable to the existing topography, thus offering more suitable building sites. In addition, the proposed amendmint priviiei a more consistent sized lot compared to the lot sizes that *.." pr.riously platted in 1906. In addition, the reconfiguration is n"..rrury to avoid physical features that exist in some areas of the property' Access -l Au.t 3,i, 2..i +.1:i, 1(' Access to the amended lots will be from County Road237 ' Lots ffi8 andt' will have access from an existing sixty foot (60') access easement that was originally platted with the Antlers Orchard olvelopment ilatNo. 1 tracts' The alignment of this acc€ss easement varies rfihtt from the existing easement that was originally platted' The variation in alignment is necessary to avJid a livestock pond that exists on {,et-S. Iac'-cf 2*s f*c.cr rY Access to trat5 will be directly from county Road 237 and will occur on the northern end of the lot. The owners wiil obtain the necessary access permits from the Garfield County Road and Bridge DePartment' oo Potable Water I have spoken with Dwight Whitehead, Division 5 Engineer, regarding exempt well permits for the five (5) amended AOD lots. tn the opinion of Mr. Whitehead, this represents a Catch 22 situation. He could issue the exempt well permits now, based on the existing legal descriptions of each lot, but would rather wait until the Amended Plat is approved so that each permit is issued based on the new legal description of each lot. His issue is that he does not want to issue the permits now and have to come back and amend the exempt well permits based on the amended lot configurations. With regards to the physical supply of water, there are existing wells located within % mile from the property that produce in excess of five (5) gallons of water per minute. The LaFrenz well, located to the north of the AOD lots, produces eight (8) gallons per minute. Irrigation Water Each lot owner will be entitled to Silt Project water that is currently owned by Tom & Cecilia LaFrenz. A total of 40 acre feet of water will be allocated to the amended AOD lots for outside irrigation use. Sewage Disposal The method of sewage disposal for all five (5) amended AOD lots will be by means of ISDS. All of the lots are in excess of 5 acres in size which allows for adequate area to accommodate ISDS systems. Soils The U.S.D.A. Soil Conservation Service soil survey mapping indicates that the AOD lots are located within four (4) different soil types. The soil types include the following map units: l)#21-Cushman-Lazearstonyloams;2)#34-Ildefonsostonyloam;3)#41- Kim loam and 4) # 51 - Olney loam. # 21 - Cushman-Lazear stony loams are found on the eastern end of the AOD lots. Cushman =Lazear have severe limitations for site development, residential construction and septic tank absorption fields. # 34 - Ildefonso stony loams are found on the southeastern corner of the AOD lots. These soils are similar to Cushman-Lazear soils in that the soil properties pose severe limitations on site development. 2 o # 4l - Kim loams are located on the west end of the AOD lots. These soils have moderate limitations for site development, residential construction and septic tank absorption fields. These soils are well drained and are located on sloping terraces. # 51 - Olney loams are located on the majority of the AOD lots. These soils are found on nearly level alluvial fans and valley sides. These soils are similar to Kim loam soils posing moderate limitations for site development, residential construction and septic tank absorption fields. All of the AOD lots include soil types with moderate limitations regarding site development, buildirg-constructign and seu,age disposal systems. Although two (2) of the lots, Lotsfi& g,Tr1r,A?r{rlrf"at#&ir-af ?ulh..,*-L-ear stony loams and Ildefonso. ,.. .stony loams sbils, site development is possible in these soils with appropriate mitigation measures. We will include a Plat Note that requires lot owners to obtain engineered fotrndations and septic systems if they elect to build in the Cushman-Lazear artd Ildefonso soils. Fire Protection The AOD lots are located within the Burning Mountain Fire Protection Diskict boundary. Don Zordel, District Chiel has indicated that the Fire Protection District will provide fire protection services to the property. Easements for Utilities, Access and Maintenance The necessary easements for utilities, access and maintenance for the proposed amended AOD lots are shown and described on the Amended Plat. Compatibility With Surrounding Land Uses The existing zoning of the property , A./R/RD, is compatible with the neighborhood because the surrounding zoning is the same as the subject property and the proposed uses are the same as the surrounding neighborhood. All of the proposed amended AOD lots are consistent with the A/R/RD zoning regulations. Conclusion The owners request approval to reconfigure their five (5) existing Antler Orchard Development Plat No.1 lots. They are not requesting an increase in the number of lots but only an opporlunity to reconfigure their lots to make them more equal in size and to provide a better relationship between lot and existing land. The LaFrenz Amended Plat request has satisfied the requirements of the Garfield County Zoning Resolution and the Garfield County Subdivision Regulations and is consistent with the Garfield County Comprehensive Plan and the surrounding neighborhood. o 3 o I have attached three (3) copies of the Amended Final Plat for your review and comment. We look forward to presenting this land use application to the Board of Cor-rnty Commissioners at their earliest convenience. If you have questions regarding this application or need additional information, please do not hesitate to contact my office. Sincerely U- John L. Taufer.

Seasonal flooding and depth to the water table limit community development and recreation. Adequate drain- age and protection from floods would be necessary before development could be attempted. These soils can be reserved as greenbelts or for other restricted uses. These soils are in capability subclass Vlw, nonirrigat- ed. + 21-Cushman-Lazear stony loams, 15 to 65 per- cent slopes. These hilly to very steep soils are on mountainsides and mesa breaks. Elevation ranges from 5,000 to 7,000 feet. The soils formed in sandstone and shale residuum. The average annual precipitation is about 13 inches, the average annual air temperatuie is about 48 degrees F, and the average frost-free period is about 125 days. The Cushman soil makes up about 45 percent of the map unit, and the Lazear soil makes up about 40 per- cent. The Cushman soil is on the landscape where allu- vium has accumulated to a greater depth over bedrock, and the Lazear soil is on the more steep areas. The Cushman soil is moderately deep and well drained. Typically, the surface layer is grayish brown stony loam about 3 inches thick. The subsoil is dark grayish brown sandy loam about 8 inches thick. The substratum is light brownish gray loam and very gravelly loam. Shale and sandstone is at a depth of 32 inches. Permeability ol the Cushman soil is moderate above bedrock, and available water capacity is low. Eflective rooting depth is 20 to 40 inches. Surface runoff is medium, and the erosion hazard is severe. The Lazear soil is shallow over bedrock and is well drained. Typically, the surface layer is grayish brown stony loam about 4 inches thick. The underlying material is light brownish gray stony loam. Calcareous shale and sandstone is at a depth of 16 inches. Permeability of the Lazear soil is moderate above bed- rock, and available water capacity is low. Effective root- ing depth is 10 to 20 inches. Surface runotf is moderate- ly rapid, and the erosion hazard is severe. lncluded with these soils in mapping are small areas of shale and sandstone outcrop and of lldefonso soils. The lldefonso soils are deep and very stony and have large acc'J;,lulalions of calcium carbonate. They are on very steep, mesa breaks. These areas make up about 15 percent of the map unit. These soils are used mainly for wildlife habitat and grazing. The native vegetation on these soils is mainly Utahjuniper and pinyon. The understory consists of Salina wildrye, lndian ricegrass, beardless wheatgrass, galleta, SOIL SURVEY low phlox, stemless goldenweed, founruing saltbush, ser- viceberry, shadscale, bitterbrush, and big sagebrush. When the understory vegetation deteriorates, only a few forbs and shrubs remain. Properly managing the vegetation maintains wood production and grazing. Se- lectively thinning the pinyon and junrper improves grazing and provides firewood and posts. Steep slopes and the erosion hazard affect harvesting. These soils can produce about 6 cords of wood per acre when trees more than 4.5 feet tall reach an aver- age diameter of 5 inches. Mule deer, gray squirrel, and cottontail rabbit find habi- tat on these soils. Use of these soils for community development and as a source of construction materials is limited by depth to bedrock and steep slopes. This complex is in capability subclass Vlls, nonirrigat- ed. 22-Dateman gravelly loam, 30 to 50 percent slopes. This moderately deep, well drained, steep soil is on mountainsides. Elevation ranges from 7,000 to 9,SOO feet. This soil formed in sandstone and limestone residu- um. The average annual precipitation is about 20 inches, the average annual air temperature is about 38 degrees F, and the average frost-free period is less than 75 days. Typically, the upper part of the surface layer is very dark grayish brown gravelly loam about 3 inches thick, and the lower part is very dark grayish brown gravelly sandy loam about 6 inches thick. The substratum is dark yellowish brown very gravelly sandy loam. Limestone or sandstone bedrock is at a depth of 34 inches. Included with this soil in mapping are small areas of Farlow, Cochetopa, and Lamphier soils on the steeper parts of the landscape. They make up about 5 to 15 percent of the map unit. Permeability is moderate, and available water capacity is low. Effective rooting depth is 20 to 40 inches. Surface runoff is medium, and the erosion hazard is moderate. This soil is used mainly for wildlife habitat and grazing. The native vegetation on this soil is mainly Gambel oak, serviceberry, and mountain brome. A few small areas have some Douglas-fir. When range condition deteriorates, forbs and shrubs increase. When the range is in poor condition, Kentucky bluegrass, undesirable weeds, and annual plants are nu- merous. Properly managing grazing maintains and im- proves range condition. Seeding and controlling brush are generally unsuitable because of the steep slopes. Elk, mule deer, blue grouse, snowshoe rabbit, and squirrel find habitat on this soil. Use of this soil for community development and as a source of construction material is limited by steep slopes and depth to rock. This soil is in capability subclass VIle, nonirrigated. BIFLE AREA, COLORADO o o ranges from 5,000 to 6,500 feet. This soil formed in mixed alluvium derived primarily from basalt. This soil has a thin intermittent cap of reddish eolian material. The average annual precipitation is about 14 inches, the average annual air temperature is 46 degrees F, and the average frost-free period is about 125 days. Typically, the surface layer is brown stony loam about 8 inches thick. The underlying material is white, very strongly calcareous very stony loam to a depth of 60 inches. lncluded with this soil in mapping are small areas of Potts and Ascalon soils on less sloping positions. These areas make up 5 to 15 percent of the map unit. Permeability is moderately rapid, and available water capacity is low. Effective rooting depth is more than 60 inches. Surface runotf is medium, and the erosion hazard is moderate. This soil is used mainly for grazing and wildlife habitat. The native vegelation on this soil is mainly pinyon and Utah juniper. The understory consists mostly of lndian ricegrass, wheatgrass, junegrass, serviceberry, bitter- brush, and big sagebrush. When the understory vegetation deteriorates, grasses almost disappear and forbs and shrubs increase. Proper- ly managing the vegetation maintains wood production and grazing. Selectively thinning the pinyon and juniper improves understory grazing and provides firewood, posts, and Christmas trees. This soil is suited to production of pinyon and Utahjuniper. lt can produce 9 cords of wood per acre when trees more than 4.5 feet tall reach an average diameter (at one foot) of 5 inches. The low available water capac- ity affects survival of tree seedlings. Mule deer, chukar, wild turkey, gray squirrel, and cot- tontail rabbit find habitat on this soil. Community development is limited by large stones and steep slopes. Structures to divert runoff aie needed for roads. This soil is in capability subclass Vls, nonirrigated. X Sl-ltOefonso stony Ioam, 25 to 45 percent stopes.This deep, well drained, hilly to steep boil is on mesa breaks, sides of valleys, and alluvial fans. A small portionof this unit is on very steep to extremely steep mesaescarpments. Elevation ranges from 5,000 to 6,500 feet.This soil formed in mixed ajiuvium derived primarily frombasalt. This soit has a thin intermittent cip of r6OOisneolian material. The average annual precipitation is about14 inches, the average ainual air temperature is about J!_degrees F, and the average frost-free period is about125 days. ^ Typically, the surface layer is brown stony loam aboutu tnches thick. The underlying material is white, very Itgngty calcareous very st6n/ toam to a depth of 60nches. ^ lncluded with this soil in mapping are small areas ofrotts and Ascalon soils on less steep and depressional 23 positions. These areas make up about 5 to 15 percent of the map unit. Permeability is moderately rapid, and available water capacity is low. Etfective rooting depth is more than 60 inches. Surface runoff is medium, and the erosion hazard is severe. lldefonso soil is used mainly tor grazing and wildlife habitat. The native vegetation on this soil is mainly pinyon and Utah juniper. The understory consists of lndian ricegrass, wheatgrass, junegrass, serviceberry, bitterbrush, and big sagebrush. When the understory vegetation deteriorates, grasses almost disappear and forbs and shrubs increase. Proper- ly managing the vegetation maintains wood production and ground cover. The value for grazing is low becauseof steep slopes and tree cover. Firewood, posts, and Christmas trees can be harvested on the more gently sloping areas. This soil is suited to production of pinyon and Utah juniper. lt can produce 9 cords of wood per acre when trees more than 4.5 feet tall reach an average diameter (at one foot) of 5 inches. The low available water capac- ity affects survival of tree seedlings. Steep slopes and severe erosion hazard affect harvesting. Mule deer, chukar, wild turkey, gray squirrel, and cot- tontail rabbit find habitat on this soil. Community development is limited by large stones and steep slopes. Structures to divert runoff are needed for roads. This soil is in capability subclass Vlle, nonirrigated. 35-lldefonso-Lazear complex, 6 to 65 percent slopes. Moderately sloping to very steep soils are on hillsides and mesa breaks. Elevation ranges from 5,000 to 6,500 feet. The lldefonso soil formed in very calcare- ous, mixed, stony alluvium derived mainly from basalt, and the Lazear soil formed in shale and sandstone re- siduum. The average annual precipitation is about 14 inches, the average annual air temperature is about 48 degrees F, and the average frost-free period is about 125 days. The lldefonso soil makes up about 50 percent of the unit, the Lazear soil makes up about 30 percent, and soils of minor extent make up 20 percent. The lldefonso soil is deep and weil drained. Typically, the surface layer is brown stony loam about 8 inches thick. The underlying material is white, very strongly cal- careous very stony loam to a depth of 60 inches. Permeability of the lldefonso soil is moderately rapid, and available water capacity is low. Etfective rooting depth is more than 60 inches. Surface runoff is medium, and the erosion hazard is moderate. The Lazear soil is shallow over shale bedrock and is well drained. Typically, the surface layer is grayish brown gravelly loam about 4 inches thick. The underlying mate- 26 o o SOIL SURVEY Surface runoff is slow, and the erosion hazard is moder_ ate. This soil is used mainly for crops, hay, and pasture. Alfalfa, small grains, and grass or grass-l6gume mixtures are grown. This soil is irrigated by flooding or furrows. Sprinklers are also suitable. Drop structures in ditches control water and prevent excessive ditch erosion. The native vegetation on this soil is mainly wheat_ grasses, needleandthread, and sagebrush. When range condition deteriorates, forbs and shrubs increase. When the range is in poor condition, undesira_ble weeds and annual plants are numerous. properly managing grazing maintains and improves range condi-tion. Reducing brush improves the range. Seeding im_proves range in poor condition. Crested wheatgrass, western wheatgrass, and Russian wildrye are suitadle for seeding. Preparing a seedbed and drilling the seed aregood practices. Cottontail rabbit, ground squirrel, and pheasant find habitat on this soil. Use of this soil for community development and as asource of construction material is limited by low strength. .. .This soil is in capability subclasses llle, irrigated, indlVc, nonirrigated. # 1l:\r^.toam, 6 to 12 percent stopes. This deep,well drained, moderately sloping to rolling soil is on allu_vial fans and benches. Elevation ranges from 5,000 toS,000 feet. This soil formed in alluvium derived from shale and sandstone. The average annual precipitation isabout 12 inches, the average ahnual air tempbrature is about 48_degrees F, and the average frost-free period isabout 125 days. Typically, the surface layer is yellowish brown or lightyellowish brown loam about 17 inches thick. The undir-lying material is light brownish gray loam to a depth of60 inches. ln places the underlying material is stratifiedwith fine sandy loam. lncluded with this soil in mapping are small areas ofArvada and Potts soils that have- slopes of 6 to .12 percent. These areas make up 5 to 15 percent of themap unit. . ??rT"q9ility is moderate, and available water capacityis high. Effective rooting depth is 60 inches or hore. Surface runoff is slow, and the erosion hazard is moder_ ate. This soil is used mainly for crops, hay, and pasture. Alfalfa, small grains, and grass or grass-legume mixtures are grown. This soil is irrigated by flooding and furrows. Sprinklersare also suitable. Drop structures in irrigation ditchescontrol water and prevent excessive ditch erosion. Keep_ing the soil in hay or pasture at least three-fourths of thetime helps to control erosion. The native vegetation on this soil is mainly wheat-grass, needleandthread, and sagebrush. When range condition deteriorates, forbs and shrubs increase. When the range is in poor condition, undesira- ble weeds and annual plants are numerous. properly managing grazing maintains and improves range condi- tion. Reducing brush improves the range. Seeding im- proves range in poor condition. Crested wheatgrass, western wheatgrass, and Russian wildrye are suitable for seeding. Preparing a seedbed and drilling the seed are good practices. Cottontail rabbit, ground squirrel, and pheasant find habitat on this soil. Use of this soil for community development and as a source of construction material is limited by low strength and steep slopes. This soil is in capability subclasses lVe, irrigated, and Vle, nonirrigated. 42-Lamphier loam, 15 to 50 percent slopes. This deep, well drained, steep soil is on fans and mountain- sides. Elevation ranges from 7,500 to j 0,000 feet. This soil formed in residuum from sandstone and shale.

Effective rooting depth is 60 inches or more. Surface runoff is slow, and the erosion hazard is slight. This soil is used mainly for grazing, wildlife habitat, ind recreation. The native vegetation is aspen and an understory of bromes, elk sedge, wildrye, wheatgrass, peavine, coium- bine, snowberry, serviceberry, and chokecherry. When the understory vegetation deteriorates, forbs, shrubs, and Kentucky bluegrass increase. properly man-aging grazing maintains and improves the understory vegetation. This soil is suited to production of quaking aspen. lt can produce 4,050 cubic feet of wood per acre or 6,g00board feet of timber from a fully stocked, even-aged stand of 8O-year-old trees. At the present there is no commercial harvest of the aspen. Steep slopes affect harvesting, and special attention is needed to reduce soil loss during harvest. Mule deer, elk, blue grouse, and snowshoe rabbit find habitat on this soil. Septic tank filter fields, community development, androads are limited by steep slopes. Surface runoff from snowmelt increases the erosion hazard on cuts and fills.Seeding reduces the erosion hazard. Roads can be de- 30 degrees F, and the average frost-free period is about 125 days. Typically, the surface layer is grayish brown loam about 12 inches thick. The subsoil is grayish brown and light gray sandy clay loam about 21 inches thick. The substratum is light gray gravelly sandy clay loam or very gravelly sandy loam to a depth of 60 inches. lncluded with this soil in mapping are small areas of Heldt, Potts, and Kim soils that have slopes of 3 to 6 percent. These areas make up 5 to 15 percent of the map unit. Permeability is moderate, and available water capacity is moderate. Effective rooting depth is 60 inches or more. Surface runoff is slow, and the erosion hazard is moderate. This soil is used mainly for irrigated crops and hay. Alfalfa, small grains, corn for silage, and grass or grass- legume mixtures are grown. Small acreages are in fruits, including apples, peaches, and apricots. lsolated areas are used for grazing. This soil is irrigated by furrows and flooding. Sprinklers are also suitable. Drop structures in irrigation ditches help to control water and prevent excessive ditch ero- sion. The native vegetation on this soil is mainly wheat- grass, needleandthread, and sagebrush. When range condition deteriorates, forbs and shrubs increase. When the range is in poor condition, undesira- ble weeds and annual plants are numerous. Properly managing grazing maintains and improves range condi- tion. Reducing brush improves deteriorated range. Seed- ing improves range in poor condition. Crested wheat- grass, western wheatgrass, and Russian wildrye are suit- able for seeding. Preparing a seedbed and drilling the seed are good practices. Cottontail rabbit, squirrel, pheasant, and some mule deer find habitat on this soil. Community development and recreation are limited by low strength. This soil is in capability subclasses llle, irrigated, and lVe, nonirrigated. )F Sr-Olney !oam, 6 to 12 percent slopes. This deep, well drained, moderately sloping to rolling soil is on allu- vial fans and sides of valleys. Elevation ranges from 5,000 to 6,500 feet. This soil formed in alluvium derived from sandstone and shale. The average annual precipita- tion is about 14 inches, the average annual air tempera- ture is about 48 degrees F, and the frost-free period is about 125 days. Typically, the surface layer is grayish brown loam about 12 inches thick. The subsoil is grayish brown and light gray sandy clay loam about 21 inches thick.
