I. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSAL
As you recall, in August 2003, the Board recently approved a plat amendment for Lots 3 and 5 of the
Goose Creek subdivision. Upon closer review prior to recordation, it appears the plat contains some
effoneous language in the 'Certificate of Dedication and Ownership" section which was
inadvertently overlooked. Specifically, the language stated in the dedication portion (entire 3'd
paragraph):
"Grant to the Town of Rfle, for use, the street shown hereon inclttding avenues, courts, drives,
places, and alleys; the public land hereon for their indicatecl public use and utility clrainage
easements shown hereonfor utility and drainage easements for tttility and drainage plffposes oni. "
The erroneous language above has been removed and replaced with the correct language stating the
following:
" That said owner does hereby dedicate as private easements to the private use of the owners of the
lots of said Goose creek Subdivision, their heirs and assigns, the eisements as ,ho*n hereoni thattheir use also included in this dedication, the right and privilege to use said easements as shown on
this plat to install, construct, reconstruct, and maintain utilities within the width of said eqsements
for the purpose of serving the lots in said subdivision, and doesfurther state that this subdivision
shall be subiect to the protective covenantsfiled and recordedfor this subdivision in the ffice of the
clerk and recorder of Garfield County, Colorado in Book 835 at page 892, as thiy miy be
amended."
The Applicant requests the Board simply sign and replace the original plat with the plat attached to
this cover memo.
II. REGULATORYAUTHORITY
Section 6:10 of the Subdivision regulations states that an amendment may be made to a recorded
plat, if such amendment does not 1) increase the number of subdivision lots or dwelling units, or 2)
result in the major relocation of a road or add new roads. This request will not increase the numberof subdivision lots or dwelling units or result in the major relocation of a road or add new roads.
Based on this information, Staff finds these standards are met. Further, Scott Aibner, County
Surveyor, has reviewed the proposed change and signed the plat.
