PROJECT INFORMATION AND STAFF COMMENTS
!. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSAL. REQUEST
The Applicants are requesting an amendment to the plat of the Townsite of Cooperton to
eliminate existing lot .lines and combine the lots into two newly configured lots
approximately 0.21 acres and 0.23 acres in size. The property is currently owned as two
separate parcels. The proposal would eliminate lots lines and allow development of homes
on each lot.
The adjusted lot configuration maintains access for each lot, includes an access and utility
easement for the northerly lot, accommodates future plans for homes on each lot and
addresses setback requirements for future onsite waste water disposal systems (OWTS)
and leach fields.
The combination of the existing four and a half lots will result in two code compliant lots
that meet the minimum lot size of the RU zone district. The amended plat is also required
to address building code issues that do not allow building across property lines. No non-
conforming conditions will result from the plat amendment.
II. AUTHORITY - APPLICABLE REGULATIONS
The Amended Final Plat Application is being processed in accordance with Section 5-305,
Amended Final Plat Review and Tables 5-103 Common Review procedures. Section 4-
103 and 4-101 address details of the review procedures. The Application has been
determined to be complete and public notice has been completed as required bythe Land
Use and Development Code.
III. STAFF ANALYSIS

will result from the proposal. The site is general levelwith no significant naturalfeatures.

From: Scott Aibner - Garfield County Surveyor
Subject: PlatReview-Townsite of CoopertonAmendedPlatof Lots C,17,18, 19, andthe Sll2ofLot20
Date:08124/2015
Sydney,
Upon review of the Townsite of Cooperton Amended Plat of Lots C,17,18, 19, and the S1/2 of Lot 20 plat,l
have a list of comments or corrections to be made prior to approval for survey content and form as follows:
1. The line work and text do not show up well plotted in color especially the green and cyan colors. I
recommend using a thicker line type and a different color.
2. In the certificate of dedication and ownership for both Bailey and Steven the property description
following the first paragraph describing all that real property should resemble the deeded
descriptions and not the newly platted descriptions.
3. Lots 18 and 19 are not annotated correctly.
4. Being that lots 18 and 19, block t have existed previously, I believe we should name the new lots
for example 18A and l9,A' or something of that nature.
5. The Improvement Survey Certificate should be removed from the plat.
Once all these and final comments from Community Development have been completed, the Mylar may be
prepared for recording. The Mylar shall be delivered to the Community Development office with all private
party signatures no later than Monday the week prior to the next commissioner meeting day in order to make
that meeting.
Sincerely,
Scoff Aibner

Cooperton Townsite Block 9 Amended Plat
Glen,
By amending the final plat, combing the lots into two lots will not have any impact on the road system. Road & Bridge
has no concerns with this Plat Amendment.
Thanks for giving me a chance to comment. If you have any questions please contact me.
