CA) isr • a. v}q) tP 7 • ^!- 1.7 •.45 • NARRATIVE EXPLAINING WHY EXEMPTION IS REQUESTED This narrative explains why Edward Larsh and Jane Larsh are requesting an exemption, based on the changing dynamics of many interrelated factors impacting our personal future as well as the quality of life in the Roaring Fork Valley. My wife and I are caught in a semi -retirement position of needing to utilize all of our resources due to circumstances of geographic location and a serious acceleration of necessary health costs. We sold our home in Jefferson County on May 22, 1992, and have declared our desire to purchase like property here in Garfield County to take advantage of a tax exchange program as well as to avoid commuting to Denver to maintain the Jefferson County poroperty. Public Law 1031 allows us to be involved in a non-taxable exchange of like kind investment property. It is this opportunity that is the primary impetus for our request. We currenty own a house that is located on 14.73 acres (a parcel as it presently exists that is one of not more than the three parcels created from a larger parcel as it existed on January 1, 1973). The probability of Aspen Glen becoming a very large development with over 600 building sites (occurring directly adjacent to and across the Roaring Fork River from our 14.73 acres) creates a need for us to protect our interests vis-a- vis the changing quality of life of the valley as well as the feasibility of other factors such as availability of domestic water and possible future restrictions on dividing our land. We are requesting three additional two -acre building sites that will meet all of the required criteria of Garfield County including the water allotment through Basalt Water Conservancy District. We feel it is necessary to apply for the three sites and to establish wells on all three sites at this time, prior to the development of Aspen Glen. Our intention is, however, to build an investment, rental home on one of the sites to meet the tax exchange requirements. Our request to Garfield County authorities includes dividing our 14.73 acres so that 6 acres would accommodate the proposed new building sites while the • • remaining approximately 9 acres would be dedicated to the planting of trees and the repair of the soil to prevent erosion as well as accommodate our existing house and barns. We will have a dedicated path from the access road to the Roaring Fork River available to fishermen upon request. This opportunity will enable us to continue to live in and to help preserve the natural beauty of the Roaring Fork Valley. Mrs. Larsh has a serious cancer condition that is taxing our existing resources; this is a primary reason for requesting this exemption. Sincerely, Edw. d B. Larsh Jane A.
