II. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSAL
This designation
P. U. D. approval .
It is proposed to modify the existing Garfield County Airport
Industrial Park P.U.D. Zone District Text included in Resolution No.
85-103. The basic proposal is as follows:
A. Modify Section 6. for Resolution No. 85-103 to state the
following:
Section 6:
Ix-A. Agricultural,/Industrial,/Open Space District, A/r/OS.
Uses by right: agricultural, including farm, garden, greenhouse,
nursery, orchard, ranch, kennel, guiding and outfitting, riding
stable, park, greenbelt, veterinary clinic, and customary
accessory uses including building for shelter and enclosures of
persons, animals, and/or property employed in any of the above
uses, including power co-generation facilities. designed for
heating greenhouses and for electric power production.
The reason for the proposed modification is the concern by 1ega1
counsel for CTDC that the previously approved language may al1ow
someone to challenge and overturn the previously approved text
amendment. This modification is to add language clarifying the intent
by CTDC to utilize an electrical povrer generating plant to heat the
greenhouses and produce electrical power.
