The Applicant goes on to state that:
Becausr thc parcels of resl properly that the Rench will convel'to Coflinan are nolv pflfl
of the plalted Common R.ccrrmtional Rescrveo and thE parcel that Coffinen rvill convsy to the
Ranch will be added to the pl*tterl L-olnnron Recreatir:nsl Reserr,e. the excharrge of real property
conl*nplafed by the Ranch and ttrre Coffnun's canrlol be accomplished throurgh the Countl"s
hounclary lirre urljustrnerrt procerlure. No amended plar for the Coffman property is necessary
because the property that the,v- will be corrveying and receiving is palr of * sub<litision exemption
plat. Thus, liom thc Coffirran's psrspcctive. thc exclrange of properties tnay be made through the
l:oundary l i ne adj ustnne.rtt p rccedure.
It is importffnr to note that in accordanse rvith paragraph ? of fie Agreement for

It is the intention of ths parties that upon rpproval of the Amended Final Plat, tltc
exr.hange dceds $,ill bc recorded simult*ncously rr.ith the recording oithe fitral, apptoved'Ihird
Anrended Final Flat.
Following review of the proposed Amended Plat and subsequent exchange of land, it is
evident that there will be no creation of any new development potential. !n addition, it is
Staffs opinion that given the real separation of the properties by the Roaring Fork River,
this Amended Plat makes sense logically. Staff is further supportive of limiting future
development along the proposed stretch of the Roaring Fork River to protect the water
resources of the valley. As the Ranch at the Roaring Fork is a platted subdivision, the
Ranch at the Roaring Fork must be approved for an Amended Plat to perform the
represented exchange of land. However, as the Applicant accurately states, since the
Coffman Ranch was previously splitthrough a Subdivision Exemption, the Coffman Ranch
boundary can be amended through the Boundary Line Adjustment process.

Associalion to amen,l the Final PIat of what is knnrvn as tlre Conr:mon Recreational Reserve,Area
of The Ranch ut Roaring Farh, Thu Crrmmon Rccrcarional Reserve of TIle Ranch at Roaring
Fork is thc platted oper spass u'ithin The Ranch at Rouring Fo*. The purpose of this
Application is to allow The Rrrnch *t Roming Fork to exchongc palccls of renl propexty with Rex
and Jr} Ann Coffman, the ouoners of propaly {o thE south, so tlrat the cornmon property line
bett{,fen the onners will be tlre c*nterline of the Roaring Fork Rirrcr. Under currEnt condilions,
The Ranctr at Roaring Fork owns properqr which lies south of the Riuer and is inaccessible to rhe
R"anch *nd the Coflinan's otq'n prsperty north of the River whicir is inacccssiblc to tfiem.
The Applicant goes on to state that:
Bocause the parcels of real property that the Ranch will cunve,v to Coffm$n arc now pafl
of the platted Cummon Recrrsalional Resun,e, and the parcel that Coffman will convsy to t1e
Ranch r*'ill he sdded to the platted (-*,onrrnon Racreational Reserr,e, rlre excharrge of real irop*.tyc.onlernpltted by the Ran,ch and ttrm Coff,rtran's cannot be accoruplishnd through ttre iounty'i
troundary line odjuslrnerlt prc(edure. No amended plat for the C'omlan pmp*-*y is necessary
because the property that {hey will be conveying and rsceiving is part of * *ir.iloisiun exemptionplat. Thus, liom.the Coftrinan's perspective. the e"rcharge ofproperties may be rnade througjr the
boundary li ne adjustmerrt procedure.

Hxchange pf Rral Prope.rty" the parcels of propody to be exJhangcd will he ""on"y*t subject io aperpelual decd restriction* consert'ation easemrrnt, nr other meshauisnr acceptahie to thi parties
that witl prel'elll in perpe uity any resr-dential or commercial develcp,o**t op*u any of the

Amended Firral Flat"
Following review of the proposed Amended Plat and subsequent exchange of land, it isevident that there will be no creation of any new development potential. ln addition, it isStaffs opinion that give.n the real separation of the properties by the Roaring Fork iiver,this Amended Plat makes sense logically. Staff is further sufportive of liiriting futuredevelopment along the proposed stretch of the Roaring Fork iiiver to protect the waterresources of the valley. As the Ranch at the Roaring Fork is a platted subdivision, theRanch at the Roaring Fork must be approved forLn Amended Plat to perform therepresented exchange of land. However, as the Appticant accurately states, since theCoffman Ranch was previously split through a Subdivision Exemption, ihe Coffman Ranchboundary can be amended through the Boundary Line Adjustment piocess.
