RELATIONSIIIP TO TIIE COMPREIIENSIVE PLAN The subject property is located partially in District C - Rural Areas Minor Environmental Constraints as sltown on the Garfield County Comprehensive Plan Management Districts Map. II.DESCRIPTION OF THB PROPOSAL A. Site Description: The property is located in the Silt Mesa area, northwest of the Towr of Silt. Tlre property was originally platted as a portion of as Tract 44, Antler's Orchard Plat #1, recorded in 1909. The property is currently undeveloped, and is adjacent to agricultural and residential uses. TIre property slopes gently to the southwest, with the eastern half of the property corrsisting of an irrigated hayfield used for hay production and livestock grazng. A natural drainage runs across the properly fi'om the north to south along the eastem edge ofthe parcel. The westenr portion of the parcel includes sagebrush and native grasses. A vicinity map is included within the application. Access to the site is via a private easement frorn CR 233,platted and recorded as a part of the Antler's Orchard Subdivision. B. ['r'qiect Description: The applicants are proposing to subdivide the 10.0 acre parcel into two (2) parcels of approximately 5.0 acres fur size. The lot configuration is shown on a "blueline" in the application. ?l- H+ AGENCY COMMElII. DMsion ofWater Resources: In house domestic water will be provided by individual wells. Two well applications are pending with the Colorado Division of Water Resources. The applicant will enter into a contract with the West Divide Water Conseryancy District as part of an augmentation plan prior to final plat. These reEeseltations are consistent with tlre State's January 30th, 1995 comments (see page 5'? ), An adtlitional letter fiom Russell George regarding Round I saLs is ,**l*d ,, page 8 2. 3. A. B. BookcliffSoil Conservation District: The District expressed a number of concerns . about revegetation, animal control, inigation ditch maintenance, drainage, soil disturbarrce oirt..p slopes and warer q,,u'li,y (... pug.r!ltl[). Colorado Department of flealth: The Department of Health has not responded to the application. 4. Colorado Geologic Survey: The Colotado Geologic Survey has responded to the-application, and concurs with the findings of the Geotechnical Reporl, which is incl,ded within the application.

STAFF COMMENTS ) Cornprehensive Plan Compliance: The cumeut Comprehensive Plan gives little guidance regarding desigrr criteda for subdivisions in rural areas. The l9S4update has not addressed the Silt Mesa area. The proposed project will remove land from agricultural production, which is addressed on the 1984 Comprehensive Plarr. 'Soils/Topograplry: A geologic site review (Flepworth-Pawlak Geotechnical, Inc.) is included within the prelirninary plan application. The review concluded that the property is not exllosecl to landslide, rockfall, debris flow or ground subsidence hazarcls. pre surficial soils coulcl have some collapse potential, and the report recommended that "site-specific soils and fourrdation studies be made so that appropriate geotechrrical desigr considerations are included in the design of the residertces".-rJ Percolation tests were perfonned by Hepworth-Pawlak, and concluded that the 120 , mirrrrtes per inch will require engineered septic systems (see December 22rd,1994 letter frqn Steve Pawlak, with attached percolation tests on pagesl2-tS t. C. Road Desiglr: The applicant proposes that the existing dirt road which provides access to this propefty Ilom County Road 233 and the common driveway will be irnproved to meet the Garfeld Corurty Pdrnitive Residential Road Standard, based on the following standard: # of Lots Minirnurn ROW Lane Width Slroulder Width Ditch Width Cross Slope Shoulder Slope Maximum Grade Surface 2 30 feet 12 feet (single lane) 0 3 feet 2%o (chip/seal) 3% (gravel) s% l0o/o Gravel The common driveway will be rnaintained as a "common" facility, with maintenance costs shared by Lots I andZ,presunably through a joint road maintenance agreement recorded at the time of final plat. A primary issue in front of the Planning -7- ' O Commissiotr dealt with the need for a roadway improvement agreement with '$ptop".ty owners. The applicant has :rlritt*3n agreement with owrers adjacent south of F. G. H. the proposed subdivision (see pages ) Fire Protection: The Silt- New Castle Fire [l'otection District has not responded to ' the applicatiott, which shotrld be a condition of approval. Zoning: All of the proposed lots conform witlr the minimum parcel size and develolltnent requirements of the Zoritg Resolutiorr. Drainage/hrigation Ditches: An exiSing drainage channel enters the property on the rrorth via natural channels and man-made irrigation laterals, before entering the Fanner's lrrigation Ditch (see Utility Plan blueline in the preliminary plan packet). Tlrree culverts are proposed to carry the flow across the proposed driveway, sized to handle projected 5O-year flow. . Staffwould suggest that easements be shown on the plat to ensure access for periodic maintenance, and appropriate language be included within covenants to ensure access and alert potential buyers. Water Supply: Adjacent propefty owners had significant concerns regarding the potential irnpact the project may have on existing wells, as well as the likelihood of 'watel to serue two dwelling units. Since tlre hearing before the Planning Commission, the applicant has drilled a well, although no pump tests have been performed. The applicaut's engitteer will present additional irrfonnation at the hearing. : Letters fiom adjacent property owners are attached on IV. RECOMMENDATION On February 8th, 1995, the Planning Commission recommended denial on a vote of 5-2, primarily due to the lack of a roadway agleement and issues regarding physical water supply. if tlr. Board concludes that these issues have been addressed, Staff would recommend APPROVAL based on the following conditions: l.All representations of the applicant, either within the application or stated at the public hearing with the Planning Commission, be considered conditions of approval. Tlre applicants shall establish a Homeowners Association, or legally acceptable eqgivalent. and shalt be incoqlorated in accordance with the requirements of Colorado Revised Statutes.

Water Division 5, Water District 39 Dear Dave: Thank you for the referral for the above referenced subdivision outlined in the Preliminary Plan Submittal by Schmueser Gordon Meyer, lnc,, dated December, 1994. This proposalwillsplit a 10 acre parcel into 2 single-family lots of approximately 5 acres each. The proposed water supply lor this development is to be provided by individual on-site wells. The submittal also indicates that the applicant proposes to obtain replacement water for the wells pursuant to a water allotment contract with tlre West Divide Water Conservancy District as part of a plan for augmentation. Based upon irrformation in the submittal, lhe State Engineer's Office offers the following opinion pursuant to Section 30-28-136(1)(H)(l), C.R.S., for your consideration regarding material injury to decreed water rights and the adequacy of the proposed water supply: This office previously commented on this cJevelopment in a letter to Garfield County dated December 5, 1994 (copy enclosed). Our comments from that letter still apply. Please note that it is our general opinion that the filing of a plan for augnrentation and the subsecluent ju<licial review and linal decree should provide adequate terms and limitations to protect decreed water rights. Although general information was provided in the submittal regarding adjacent wells, weare unable to comment on the adequacy of the water supply without an engineering or geotechnical study documenling the physical availability and dependability of ground water for the proposed uses at these sites. As outlined in the statutes, Section 30-28-133, C.R.S., the subdivider is required to submit adequate evidence that a water supply that is sutficient in terms of quality, quantity, and dependability will be available to ensure an adequate supply ol water. Finally, the two pending wellpermit applications (receipt nos. 3779s2-A, -B)were returned to the applicant on Decemb er 21 ,1 994, for additional information. Our records indicate that the applicalions have not been returned to this office to date. ^/-?a Mr. Dave Michaelson January 30, 1995 Page 2 We recommend that the County not grant final approval until a plan lor augmentation is approved by the water court.

Water Division 5, Water District 39 Dear Dave: Thank you for the referral for the Deer Crest Orchard Subdivision located approximately M9 miles northrvest of Silt. The applicant is requesting to split the ten acre parcel known as Tract 44, Antlers Orctrard Development Company's Piat No. I into two five acre lots. The proposed water service will be from exempt wells. TWo permit applications have been submined to our office for this proJeA - one application to reduce the number oia"r"s for an existing permit and one application for the new lot should the subdivision be approved by the County. pursuant to g30-28-136(lxh)0, C.R. S., the State Engineer's Office offers the following opinion for your consideration regarding the material injury to decreed water rights and the adequacy of the proposed water suPPlY: The Colorado River system and iS tributaries at this location are over-appropriated. As such, well perrnits appiications in new subrtivisions must be evaluated to determine if other water righs would be injured considering the cumulative effect of all proposed wells. It is Iikely fhat in many circumstances well permits could not be issued by our office without a court approved plan for augmentation. To da0e, we have no evidence that h plan for augmentation is pending or has been approved by the water court in Glenwood Springs. The p"naing permit applications (receipt numbers 377952 A and B) will be denied until such time that the applicant obtains a court approved plan for augmentation.

The following comments summilrize our findings. Considering the sizes of the planned lots and the locations of the proposed building envelopes on them, this subdivision is entirely feasible from a geologic standpoint. The submitted reports by [Iepworth-Pawlak Geotechical and Schmuezer Gordon Meyer, Inc., adequately discus.s the possible ccnstruction pr<lblerns end septic-sy-ctem design constraints for these parcels. We concur with their findings and recommend that they be followed. Depending on depth to bedrock ancl water table conditions, it may be impractical or infeasible to construct houses with basements.

Dear Mr. Barry: As requcsted, wc conducted percolatiorr testing at the subject site to evaluate the feasibility of in<lividual infiltration septic disposal. We previously conducted a geologic review of the sitc and prcsentcd our findlngs in a report dated Decetntrer 20, 1994. Thc percolatiou holes and profilc pit had heen dug and the test holes soaked on Decemlrer 2l lty Mr. Barry. The test holes were covered to protect them against freezing. The holes had been dug with a backhoe and the final one foot dcpth had brcn hand dug and was soakcd. Sorne of the test l)oles had water remaining in them at the time we arrived to perform the tests. The soils exposed in the profile pit and percolation holcs appeared relativcly uniform and conslsted of .stlff dry clay to the maximum depth dug of l0 feet. A plastic pipe encountered in the protile pit was flowing a very small arnount of water aud caused sorne ponding at the bottom of the. pit, The approxirnatc locations of the pits are shown on Flg. l. . 'flte percolatiou tcst rcsults arc presented in Table I. The tesB were conducted between about 10:00 a.rn, to l:00 p.rn. The weather was sunny and there was no treezing of water during the test. The typical final rate of the test was 120 minutes per inch. Based on the firrdings, an engirreered septic disposal system will be needed.

The McElroy property and tl're Barry the ofd Antlers Orchard Subdivislon falls under this Subdivision. The property and the Barry property is acre tracts. property are part of . Much of SiIt Mesa area that the McElroy l-ocated consi-sts of 10 I am concerned that if Mr. Barry is given an approval to spJ-it his property a precedence woul-d be set. How many other people wil-I want to split their 10 acre tracts into Lwo (2) five acre tracts? I do not feel t.hat these proposals shoul-d be approved since the homes will be on individual wel}s and sepLics. I do not fee] that the water aquifer on Sil-t Mesa can support all- these wells if this precedence is seL. truly yours, *l n" LbPrief McPherson Armi Very t9S- Planning Department Garfield County January 30, 1995 Subject: Opposition to DEER CREST ORGHARD SUBDIVISION This letter documents our objection to the proposed subdivision as outlined by public notice. We object for the following reasons. 1) One of the maln reasons we selected our tract ln this area for our homesite was exactly because the minimum size was ten acres and that there would only be limited number of homesites available. These sltes were, in fact, advertised as "Mini-Farm and Ranch sites" on "ten acre tracts"and under that premlse justifled the asking price.We belleve if the Barry's wanted less than ten acres then they should not have purchased property in an area clearly being sold as such. 2) Our second concern Is the precedent this subdlvislon into five acres would set for the future. lf approved, we fear other owners might do the same and further subdivlons would ultlmately follow whlch would put a straln on a utility grld and private road designed for a smaller number of homesites. 3) Finally, as one of the first owners to start construction, we have invested considerable tlme, money, and effort to develop thls raw land lnto a suitable homesite. Starting from scratch, it was necessary to organize a homeowners assoclation to share the extremely hlgh cost of bringing in utllltles, maklng required improvements to the private road and formulating a private road maintenance agreement. Unfortunately, this proposed subdivision has already hampered this effort. We have been unable to get the two owners of the proposed subdivision to either sign the Private Road Maintenance agreement or pay the same fair share as tlre other owners for utilities or road improvement. Obviously two homesites instead of one will lncrease both the traffic on the private road and the draw on a utility grid designed for fewer homes. Therefore, we urge you to not grant approval for this proposed subdivision. Thank you for the opportunlty to express our views. Sincerelv. Slr--.-- ltnvrc- Sr* 6^Zo-*-t' /1"-'12 -4{- r'iiii
