I. GENERAL PROJECT INFORMATION
The subject property is generally located in the Missouri Heights area. The parent parcel is 46.069
acres. The proposal is for 3lots, the sizes of the lots are 8.123,10.00, and27.946 acres. The lots
will share a well for domestic water. Individual sewage disposal systems are proposed for each of
the lots. Access is being proposed from one central private drive from Panorama Drive for Lots 'A'
and 'B' and a private drive off of Panorama Drive for Lot 'C'. Lots 'A' and 'B' have a platted
building envelope for a residence and one agricultural building. Lot 'C' has two building
envelopes; one for a residence and the other for an agricultural building. The three lots will share
a well and each will have individual sewage disposal systems designed for the house constructed on
the site. Electricity will be brought to the subdivision and LP gas tanks will be buried on each lot.
II. REFBRRALS
Staff has referred the application to the following State agencies and/or County departments for
their review and comment. Comments received are briefly mentioned below or are more
comprehensively incorporated within the appropriate section of this staff report.
Town of Carbondale: No Comments
Carbondale Fire Protection District: Verbally
the road on the periphery of the development, that
water if it is needed.
RE-l School District: No Comments
Colorado Division of Wildlife: No Comments
indicated that there were fire hydrants along
would be capable of providing fire protection
Colorado Division of Water Resources: Confirmed the ability of the well to serve 3
residences and associated water uses and provided a statement of "no material injury and
adequate physical water supply".
Colorado Geologic Survey: The CGS visited the site and noted geologic conditions likely to
affect development related to surface drainage, erosion, potentially shallow bedrock, sinkhole
potential and slope considerations.
Garfield County Road & Bridge Department: General Comments dated February 8,2006
from Jake Mall.
Garfield County Vegetation: Stated that the vegetation management plan is acceptable.
Suggested that language be added to the covenants to encourage landowners to manage county
listed noxious weeds.
Mt. Cross Engineering (County Engineer): Chris Hale has noted issues tied to irrigation
water, fire protection, geotechnical issues and drainage plans.
III. GENERAL RELATIONSHIP TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
The comprehensive plan for this area is "subdivision". The applicant is proposing 3 rather large
lots that meet the minimum lot size for the underlying zone of ARRD. To the north and east are
several lots much smaller than proposed in this application. The request is in conformance to the
Comprehensive Plan.
IV. APPLICABLE ZONING REGULATIONS
The following is an analysis of the proposed development with the required zoning regulations of
the ARRD zone district.
A. Proposed Uses in ARRD Zonins
The Applicant proposes single-family residential development on all 3 lots, which is a "use by
right" in the A/R/RD zone district and is therefore consistent with the underlying zone district.
For other uses, the Applicant should consult Section $3.02 of the Zoning Resolution.
v.APPLICABLE SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS FOR PRELIMINARY PLAN
Preliminary Plan Map as referenced in $4:50 of the Subdivision
Regulations
Staff Findings: The applicants' Preliminary Plan Map appears to meet the requirements
as specified in the regulations
Additional Information $ 4:60
Staff Finding: The application meets the requirements for this section. The total
development area is 46.069 ac., which will be subdivided into 3 lots, with one dwelling
unit on each. The only non-residential space on the property will be the agricultural
buildings. Each lot will have 2 off-street parking spaces.
SUPPLIMENTAL INFORMATION: $4:70 thru $4:94
A. Geoloey and Soils
Staff Findines: The application did not originally include a geotechnical study
prepared by a professional engineer. A report from HP Geotech was received by the
Planning Department on September 1,2006. This report was forwarded to the State
Geologic Survey for their review, but staff did not get any comments back until after the
Planning Commission meeting.
The application did include, as required, a copy of the soils information provided by the
National Resource Conservation Service. The majority of the site is identified as
Morval-Tridell complex, 12 to 50 percent slopes. According to the NRCS publication
on soils, these soils are poorly suited for homesite development, due primarily to large
stones and slope.
The HP Geotech report states that the site is not impacted by geologic hazards such as
rockfall, debris flow, high ground water or slope instability. They do note that the area
is underlain by Eagle Valley Evaporite, which under certain circumstances can result in
the creation of sink holes. No sink holes were observed on the property. HP Geotech
does make recommendations regarding the need to have site specific percolation testing
done for evaluation of geotechnical design parameters. The applicant has included a
requirement for engineered foundations and ISDS in the covenants. This should also
be a plat note.
The Colorado Geological Survey reviewed the HP Geotech report and visited the site.
It was noted that the primary geologic conditions likely to affect development related to
surface drainage, erosion, potentially shallow bedrock, sinkhole potential and slope
considerations. Regional conditions such radon, seismicity and water availability may
also affect development on the property. CGS suggested the following considerations
be incorporated into any approval:
1. Due to the underlying evaporate bedrock, sinkhole potential needs to be addressed
3
A.
B.
VL
by making sure that surface drainage is routed away from any proposed structure and
that foundation plans incorporate perimeter drains to ensure adequate drainage away
from permanent foundation elements.
2. There needs to be a plat note stating that any sinkhole repairs made on the site
requires a professional geologist or civil engineer, experienced in sinkhole mitigation
techniques to oversee and document the work.
3. Site grading needs to be designed with consideration for increased erosion potential
due to changes in stormwater runoff and surface flows.
4. A plat note and covenant requiring that all foundation design be done after a
detailed, lot specific geotechnical study has been conducted on the site by a qualified
geotechnical or civil engineer.
B. Vegetation
Staff Findinqs: Steve Anthony, County Vegetation Manager, reviewed the weed
assessment and management plan and finds it to be acceptable. He suggests that the
proposed covenants have a section added dealing with weed management on the
properties and that the property owners manage county listed noxious weeds.
C. Wildlife
Staff Findings: The applicant's engineer noted in his site report that the following
wildlife species are identified as being present on the property, based on the County
Wildlife maps:
o Black Bear Overall Range
o Winter Elk Range
o Mule Deer Overall Range
The submitted list shows there is a number of wildlife species that could be affected by
humans as well as domesticated animals. The applicants will need to be aware of the
wildlife and manage any domesticated animals to reduce impacts it may have on
wildlife. It would also be appropriate to require bear proof trash cans for all houses.
D. Drainase Plan
Staff Findings: An amended Drainage Plan was submitted for the applicants by Rick L.
Barth, P.E., Red Mountain Civil, Inc., dated September 25, 2006. The original
application proposed that each lot will be responsible for their own drainage and
controls, and included a requirement in the covenants. Chris Hale, Mountain Cross
Engineering, lnc., noted that while he understands the intent, the County in the past has
always required the applicant for subdivision approval is responsible for installing any
necessary drainage improvements as a part of their subdivision improvement
obligations. The amended drainage plan analyzed the potential development area of 3
acres within the site and concluded that there is a need for a 700 cubic foot storage area.
The storage areas will be shallow surface ponds located on each lot, with the equivalent
to a typical dry well in the base to accelerate the infiltration of the storm water.
4
-\
-N
$\
s
It is staff s opinion that the proposal in the application does meet Section 4:80, which
requires an engineer registered in the State of Colorado to depict in written or graphic
form the "design of drainage facilities to prevent storm waters in excess of historic run-
off from entering, damaging or being carried by existing drainage facilities, and to
prevent major damage or flooding of residences in a one hundred (100) year storm,
showing: 1. area subject to inundation ; and 2. location and size of proposed culverts,
bridges, ditches and channels." The proposed solution by the applicant's engineer is
consistent with interpretations of this language.
E. Utility Plan -General
Staff Findings: The Subdivision will be served by the following utilities:
o LPG tanks - Gas
o Holy Cross - Electric
o All other utilities will be provided by private means.
F. Utilitv Plan - Water
Staff Findings: Domestic Potable water will be provided by an exempt domestic well,
permit # 91058. The well is to be located on Lot A will be shared equally by all three
lots, with a 1,000 gallon buried storage tank located on Lot C.
It is proposed to create easements from the well to each lot. Subdivision Regulations
$9:53states that "All lines in a central water systems will be looped, with no dead ends
included in the system. Where dead ends are proposed for cul-de-sacs, there will either
_ be a fire hydrant or blow-off valve at the end of the line." It appears that the applicant is
. \ only proposing to create the easements with no water lines built or fire hydrant or blow-
f / off valves for the dead end lines. Staff finds this is not a looped proposal or properly
I designed dead end system and does not meet the County requirements.
A 4 hour pump test was conducted by Samuelson Pump Company on 412612006. The
rate of 20 GPM was maintained throughout the 4 hour test. The maximum drawdown
was approximately 2.5 ft, with full recovery in 8 minutes. Physically, the well will be
able to provide enough water for the three lots. No water quality samples were
collected for the test, thus there is no information in terms of water quality. Typically,
the minimum samples will be submitted testing for bacteria, nitrates and suspended
solids.
There is no discussion of irrigation water for the property owners in the original
application. It appears that the applicant owns irrigation rights from the Missouri
Heights-Mountain Meadows Irrigation Company. In subsequent correspondence from
the applicant's attorney, it was noted that the preference was to allow homeowners to
use the well for up to one (1) acre of irrigation. Section 9:51 requires "an adequate
potable and irrigation water supply ..." to be available to each lot in the subdivision. If
the State does not approve the use of the well for outside irrigation, the applicant will
have to transfer all inigation water rights to the homeowners association and provide a
management and use plan for the irrigation water rights in the covenants.
G. Utilitv Plan - Sanitary Sewer
Staff Findings: Wastewater treatment is proposed to serve each lot through the use of an
individual sewer disposal system ISDS. There were no percolation tests performed on
the property. The NRCS soils charts, indicate that he Morval-Tridell soils have severe
constraints due to slope. ISDS are not allowed on slopes over 3O7o slope.
The applicants are proposing the ISDS be installed by each owner based on a design
done by a professional engineer. Included in the additional information submitted after
the Planning Commission meeting is a suggested ISDS maintenance plan that has the
following elements:
1. Septic tanks will be inspected, cleaned and pumped at a minimum of every
two years.
2. Disposal fields of any kind inspected every 6 months.
3. Disposal mechanisms such as pumps or dosing siphons inspected every 6
months.
This ISDS maintenance agreement/plan needs to be included in the protective
covenants, with provisions for homeowners to pay a portion of any annual dues to cover
the inspection requirements by a qualified professional hired by the HOA.
H. Fire Protection
Staff Findings: The Proposed subdivision is within the Carbondale Fire District
boundaries. There is no discussion of fire protection water in the application. The
covenants do include requirements for vegetation removal, fire apparatus road design
and posting addressing. The Fire District provided verbal comments, noting that there
are fire hydrants on the periphery of the property that should provide fire protection
water. The applicant's engineer contacted the Fire District after the Planning
Commission meeting and after discussion, agreed to increase the size of the water tank
to 2000 gallons and provide a standard PVC fill connector to allow the fire department
to fill their tanks in a fire emergency.
The Carbondale Fire protection district has an impact fee of $437ld.u. for new
development that has to be paid prior to Final Plat approval.
I. Road/Access Plan
Staff Findinqs: The access to the subdivision will come from a main entrance off of
Panorama Drive. A 30 ft. wide easement for an internal dead end public road is
proposed to provide access to two of the lots. Subsequent to the Planning Commission
meeting the applicant's engineer provide plan and profile for a 12 ft. wide, Primitive
Residential road, meeting the County Subdivision Road Standards. The third lot will be
served by a driveway directly,This road is configured to go through the property to
provide access to another property. To the best of staffs knowledge, there is no
alternate access on the adjoining property. As it exists, the road far exceeds the 600 ft.
maximum allowed by Section 9:33 of the Subdivision Regulations. A longer road can
be approved by the Board for topographical reasons and having fire protection and
emergency egress and access is provided.
Using the ITT Trip Generation manual, 2 residential lots will generate approximately
19.14 trips at9.57 trips per dwelling which requires the internal road be designed to the
"Primitive Residential" standard pursuant to Section 9:35 of the Subdivision
Regulations. This road type requires a 30-foot right-of-way, a 12 foot driving lane, 3-
foot ditch widths, and a gravel driving surface. It is not clear that the proposed internal
road has been designed to this standard. In addition to designing the road to meet this
standard, staff would suggest that if a longer design is approved, that a hammerhead turn
around , with a minimum 50' turning radius be a part of the design for the subdivision.
Dedication to the public of this internal road will be required. Maintenance however,
will be the responsibility of the Homeowners Association, as proposed in the protective
covenants.
J. Easements
The Applicant will need to delineate, legally describe, and convey all easements shown
on the plat to the Homeowners Association. This dedication needs to be in a form
acceptable to the County Attorneys Office and transfer shall occur at the time of
recording the final plat. These easements shall include, but are not limited to all drainage
easements, shared water system easements (domestic wells and water storage tank),
storm-water drainage easements, all internal roads (which will be dedicated to the public
on the face of the final plat) and any access and maintenance easements that need to be
provided for in the common open space.
K. Assessment / Impact Fees:
The property is located in Traffic Study Area 11 which requires a $384.00 per ADT fee
be paid to the county. This will be figured at the time of final plat. The applicant could
expect to pay an approximate preliminary Traffic Impact Fee of $11,000 of whichVz
shall be paid at final plat and included as a component of the Subdivision Improvement
Agreement (SIA).
The development is located in the RE-l School District which will require a fee for
School Site Acquisition. An appraisal no more than two years old of the unimproved
value of the property will need to be submitted to determine the per acre value of the
property. This fee will be paid at final plat and included as a component of the
Subdivision Improvement Agreement (SIA). The formula for calculating the fee is as
follows:
(Jnimproved per acre market value of land x Land Dedication Standard x # of units
Cash-in-lieu
Note: the Land Dedication Standard for single family homes is 870 sq. ft. per unit or
.020 acres

RE: Review of Preliminary Plan Submittal for Panorama Reserv. sunoSYilSiIG&Pi'A'qf*ll{G
Dear Mark:
A review has been performed of the documents for the Preliminary Plan Submittal for Panorama
Reserve Subdivision. The package was found to be well organized. The following comments,
questions, or concerns were generated:
l. Irrigation does not appear to be a permitted use of the well. Though it appears that the Applicant
owns irrigation shares, no description or design is shown for distribution of irrigation water, per
Section 9:51 of the Subdivision Regulations.
2. There are no water supplies made available for Fire Protection. Due to the remote location,
residential fire sprinkling systems and water supply storage/availability should be considered, per
Section 9:51 of the Subdivision Regulations.
3. A geotechnical report was not included, per Section 4:70A of the Subdivision Regulations.
4. The drainage plan appears to be in conformance to the Subdivision Regulations with the
exception of Section 4:80 D and Section 9:43. It is a forgone conclusion that construction of
residences will create run-off in excess of historic site levels. The application proposes to have
the individual lot owner submit site specific drainage plans. The "Declaration of Covenants"
requires this under Section 16. Although the logic behind the proposal is understood, it goes
against the position consistent within the County; on previous subdivisions, the necessary
drainage improvements are constructed by the Applicant. However if a note is added to the plat
and included under Section l6 in the "Declaration of Covenants", the intent of the Subdivision
Regulations would be achieved. The note could read as follows, "lndividual lot owners shall be
responsible to provide their own grading, drainage and erosion control plans forbuilding permit
showing how each lot will keep flows at historic rates. post construction drainage patterns. and
minimizing concentrated flows that discharge to adjacent properties."
Feel free to call if any of the above needs clarification or if you have any questions or comments.
Sincerely, i

Re: Panorama Reserve Subdivision Preliminary Plan
Section 17,T7S, R87W,6th PM
W. Division 5, W. District 38
Dear Mr. Bean:
We have reviewed the above-referenced proposal to subdivide a parcel of approximately 46.07
acres into three lots, with one single-family dwelling and one agricultural outbuilding on each lot. The
applicant proposes to supply water through an existing well. Sewage disposal is to be through individual
systems. Household use is estimated to require approximately 1200 gpd.
Permit No. 91058 was approved on June 1 6, 1977 , pursuant to CRS 37-92-602(3)(bxll) as the
only well on a tract of 35 acres. The maximum pumping rate of the well is limited to 15 gpm, the
average annual amount to be appropriated is 3 AF, and the uses are limited to domestic purposes in
one to three dwellings and livestock watering.
A well test completed by Samuelson Pump Co. indicates that the well produced over 20 gallons
per minute over a 4-hour period on April 26,2006, that the drawdown was 2.48 feet and that the 99.7%
recovery occurred within 8 minutes. With sufficient storage capacity, this well should provide an
adequate supply for the proposed use.
Based on the above, it is our opinion, pursuant to CRS 30-28-136(1)(hxl), that the proposed
water supply will not cause material injury to decreed water rights, so long as the applicant maintains a
vaiici weii permit, ancj is physicaiiy aciequate. if you oi'the appiicant has any questions concerning this
matter, please contact me for assistance.

Re: Hearing for proposed Panorama Reserve Subdivision
Dear Mr. Bean:
sEP I 2 2A0b
As the owners of the 44 acres adjoining the west edge of the proposed subdivision, we
are writing to register several questions and objections.
1. As proposed, the water for the subdivision will come from a shared well. How
will it be monitored? What limitations will there be on the amount of water used?
While those are primarily state matters, we rely on Garfield County to protect the
interests of existing landowners, particularly in matters concerning such a valued
resource as water.
2. The survey line for the western border cuts into the existing meadow, and we note
that the proposed project allows various outbuildings. Should the proposal be
approved, any animals will have to be contained by a fence. We want to make
sure any fencing will run along the surveyed border, not the existing meadow line.
3. The rate at which the entire do*q vall"ey area is being developed is rapid, so much
so that green space is at a premiurn. The Panorama subdiviSion already in place
has chopped up what used to be agricultural land, and the Hunt Ranch
development just south of the proposed subdivision is extensive. The Panorama
Reserve proposal before you was part of a larger tract of some 80 acres that has
been split into two properties. To divide it further would reduce green space and
have the effect of enlarging the already existing Panorama subdivision.
With these concems in mind, we hope you will deny approval of the Panorama Reserve
Subdivision.
Sincerely, I -l/rrJ^* 31"r-

Dear Mary Elizabeth:
In regards to the property owned by Cort Lewis in Garfield Counfy located in the E % of
Section 17, Township 7 South, Range 87 West. In reviewing this file, I discovered that
the exception for minerals listed on our commitment is in fact not conect as the document
referred to only describes ditches, but not in fact minerals or oil and gas interests.
Therefore the mineral rights are not excepted out and have been transfened along with the
title to the property to Cort Lewis. I hope this clarifies this situation and if you need
anything further let me know.

Re: Panorama Reserve Subdivision
CGS Review No. GA-07-0003
Dear Mark:
ln response to your request and in accordance with Senate Bill 35 (1972),1 visited the site
and reviewed the site plan on September 14,2006. The site consists of approximately
forty-six acres to be subdivided into three residential lots, with ISDS and a shared well.
lncluded in the review package were: a Panorama Reserve Subdivision Preliminary Plan
Submittal, prepared by Palomino Design-Build P.C. (6126106 revised); and a Geotechnical
Site Review, prepared by H.P. Geotech, lnc. (7/31/06),
The site is located in moderately sloping topography to the northeast of Carbondale. Bedrock
is mapped in the area as Tertiary Basalt flows underlain by the Pennsylvanian Eagle Valley
Evaporite.
The primary geologic conditions likely to affect the development plan for this property are:
surface drainage, erosion, potentially shallow bedrock, sinkhole potential, and slope
considerations. Regional conditions such as radon, seismicity, and water availability may
also affect development plans. CGS offers the following suggestions to be incorporated into
the planning process for the proposed development of this property.
1. Due to the underlying evaporite bedrock, sinkhole potential is a consideration on this
property. Sinkhole formation can be induced by property development, excavation of
overlying soils and re-routing of surface drainage. All these items should be carefully
considered when developing property in sinkhole-prone terrain. As a precaution, surface
drainage should be routed away from any proposed structure. Additionally, foundation
plans should incorporate perimeter drains to ensure adequate drainage away from
permanent foundation elements.
It is important to detail in the plan notes that a potential may exist, on the property, for the
formation of sinkholes, prior to, during and following construction activities. The plan notes
ATE OF
should also requre a professional geologist or civil engineer, experienced with sinkhole
mitigation techniques, to oversee and document any sinkhole repairs made on the site.
2. Site grading should be designed with consideration for increased erosion potential due to
changes in stormwater runoff and surface flows.
3. A detailed, lot-specific geotechnical engineering study, including geotechnical-boring
advancement, should be conducted on the site to provide a basis for foundation design
and engineering. Geotechnical boring samples collected on the site should, at a minimum,
analyze parameters related to soil bearing capacity, soil and bedrock composition, depth
to bedrock, and bedrock shear strength.
Other than the issues mentioned above, there are no geologic conditions present at this
site that would preclude the proposed development. lf you have further questions about
this site, please do not hesitate to contact me at 303-866-3350.
Sincerely,
Jd*qF&*a:*\* '# ,{

Re: Panorama Reserve Subdivision - Civil Engineering Updates per Planning and Zoning
Commission - September 2006
Dear Mr. Bean,
This letter is to present our engineering updates as requestedby the Planning and Zoning
meeting and associated documentation for the Preliminary Plan approval of Panorama Reserve
Subdivision. As noted in the meeting, we have the following issues and associated additional
information. Following the list of recommendations:
#5 Water quality analysis is in process. Due to schedules, lt is taking longer than a
month to get the results. We anticipate these results soon and will certainly forward
those results to your office via Jack Palomino.
#6 ISDS maintenance p1an. As per common practice, suggested maintenance shall be
done via each homeowner as follows:
L. Septic tanks shall be inspected, cleaned and pumped at a minimum of
every two years.
2. Disposal fields o[ any kind inspected every 6 months.
3. Disposal mechanisms such as pumps or dosing siphons inspected every 6
months.
#10 The access drive shall be a Public Road built to typical county standards with a 1.2
foot wide drive lane, ditches as necessary and a compacted gravel surface. Plan and
profile of this road has been included in the drawing set for your review
#1,4 A revised drainage plan and report has been included. The premise of which is
individual detention facilities on each lot shali be constructed at strategic locations that
would likely best suit the anticipated development on each iot as well as blend in with
the natural surrounding vegetation and surfaces. The calculation method has been
coordinated with Mountain Cross Engineering. Detention facilities shall be shallow
surface ponds with a shallow drywell underneath to improve percolation and prevent
standing water.
#1,5 Plan and Profile is now included. See item #10.
Additional Items. RMC has contacted Bill Gavette of rhe Carbondale Fire District
concerning wild fire detainment. Bill re-iterated their preferred filling location for therr

trucks would be at the existing fire hydrants that are in the adjacent subdivision.
However, he agreed it wouid not be a bad idea to increase the size of the tank and
provide a filling location. We have increased the tank size to 2,000 gallons as their trucks
hold around 1,800 gallons and will provide the standard PVC fiil connector as
recommended by the District and available at GJ Pipe. Therefore they will have a larger
' tank than can fill their typical truck yet is small enough that three houses can turn over
the tank water volume frequently enough to prevent stagnation. The tank will be
completely buried and insulated. A pull out is now indicated near the tank for fire truck
ACCCSS.
Attached to this letter are the revised drainage calculations, updated and new drawing set. Please
do not hesitate to call if you have any quesrions.

Re Panorama Reserve Subdivision - Drainage Plan Design Calculations - September 2006
Dear Mr. Bean,
Please accept this letter as our description of the drainage caiculations for Panorama Reserve Subdivision.
Per the request of County Staff and Planning Commission, we have assembled these documents.
In conversation with Chris Hale of Mountain Cross Engineering, we have utilized the following method.
Due to some limitations on various hydrologic methods, we will utilize a Rational Method approach with
an assumed three (3) acre "development area". This development area should easily encompass future
homeowner's desires and al1ow for flexibllity of location of the home and surface alterations. We have
also assumed a very conservative 8,000 square foot impervious surface, with the rest remaining in a native
state.
In utilizing this approach, we have resulted in an approximately 700 cubic foot storage requirement for
the 100-year storm. This will be accommodated in a shallow surface pond with a perforated manhole
base buried underneath. The perforated base will be built as though it is a typical drywell but is for the
primary purpose of allowing for faster infiltration of the storm water runoff that is collected in the pond,
hence better preventing long term standing water.
These ponds are indicated on the drainage plan (C2) and are located in areas that fit natural topography
and good catch points for surface runoff. They shall keep developed flows leaving the site at no greater
than the historic 100-year storm. We are assuming that the future homeowners will be able to direct
most, if not all of their runoff from their impervious surfaces to these ponds. There is no significant
change in the historic drainage pattern.
It is respectfully requested that these calculations be approved for the drainage plan of Panorama Reserve
Subdivision.
Respectfully,
Rick L. Barth, P.E.

Re: Panorama Reserve Subdivision - Drainage Plan Design Calculations - September 2006
Dear Mr. Bean,
Please accept this letter as our description of the drainage calculations for Panorama Reserve Subdivision.
Per the request of Counry Staff and Planning Commission, we have assembled these documents.
In conversation with Chris Hale of Mountain Cross Engineering, we have utilized the following method.
Due to some limitations on various hydrologic methods, we will utllize a Ratlonal Method approach with
an assumed three (3) acre "development area". This development area should easily encompass future
homeowner's desires and al1ow for flexibility of location of the home and surface alterations. We have
also assumed a very conservative 8,000 square foot impervious surface, with the rest remaining in a native
state.
In utilizing this approach, we have resulted in an approimately 700 cubic foot storage requirement for
the 100-year storm. This will be accommodated in a shaliow surface pond with a perforated manhole
base buried underneath. The perforated base will be built as though it is a typical drywell but is for the
primary purpose of allowing for faster infiltration of the storm water runoff that is collected in the pond,
hence better preventing long term standing water.
These ponds are indicated on the drainage plan (C2) and are located in areas that fit natural topography
and good catch points for surface runoff. They shall keep developed flows leaving the site at no greater
than the historic 100-year storm. We are assuming that the future homeowners will be able to direct
most, if not ail of their runoff from their impervious surfaces to these ponds. There is no significant
change in the historic drainage pattern.
It is respectfully requested that these calculations be approved for the drainage plan of Panorama Reserve
Subdivision.
Respectfully,
Rick L. Banh, P.E.

THIS DECLARATION OF COVENANTS, CONDITIONS AND RESTRICTIONS FOR
PANOR
IRRIGA
day of
AMA RESERVE SUBDTVISION, INCLUDING WELL SHARING AND
TION WATER USE AGREEMENT (hereinafter the "Declaration") is made this
2006, by Cort Lewis (hereinafter collectively referred to as
"Declarant") owner of the property described below, which property is located in Garfield
County, Colorado:
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, Declarant is the sole owner of certain real property located in Garfield
County, Colorado, described on Exhibit A attached hereto (hereinafter referred to as the
"Property"); and
WHEREAS, a well known as "Lewis Well" is located upon the Property at a point
approximately 2320 feet from the South Section Line and 2320 feet from the East Section Line
of Section 17, , Township 7 South, Range 87 West of the 6th P.M.; and
WHEREAS, Declarant is the sole owner of the Lewis Well (the "Well"); and
WHEREAS, the Colorado Division of Water Resources has issued Well Permit Number
91058 for the Lewis Well, which permit allows use of water from the well for ordinary
household purposes inside three (3) single family dwellings, irrigation and the watering of
domestic animals and livestock; and
WHEREAS, Declarant intends to subdivide the Property into three lots (to be known as
Lots A, B and C Panorama Reserve Subdivision-the Lewis Well is on Lot A), using the Lewis
Well as the source of potable water for domestic use on such lots and for irrigation water;
NOW, THEREFORE, Declarant hereby declares that the Well and the Property shall be
held, sold and conveyed subject to the following restrictions, covenants and conditions, which
are for the purpose of protecting the value and desirability of the Property, and which shall run
with the Well and the Property and be binding upon all parties having any right, title or interest
in the Well and the Property, or any part thereof, their heirs, successors and assigns, and shall
inure to the benefit of each owner thereof.
1. Potable Water Supply. The potable water supply for each of the three lots within
the Property (alWa Panorama Reserve Subdivision) shall be the Well (Lewis Well), as operated
LEWlS-covenants and well sharing agmt-3
Panorama Reserve Subdi vision
Declaration of Covenants
Page2
DRAFT
pursuant to Well Permit No. 91058 issued by the Colorado Division of Water Resources. All Lot
owners shall be jointly responsible for meeting all obligations set forth in the Well Permit.
2. Water System Easements. All owners of lots within the Property shall have an
easement to access the Lewis Well and all pumphouses, storage tanks, pipelines, and other
workings associated with the delivery of potable and irrigation water to each lot (collectively
referred to as the "Water System") located anywhere within the Property, for reasonable
operation and maintenance purposes. Such easement includes a right to free and unrestricted
access for such purposes and shall be twenty (20) feet in width surrounding all parts of the Water
System. In the event that any gates, well houses, or other parts of the Water System are locked
for security purposes, all lot owners shall immediately be provided with a key and shall not
otherwise be restricted from accessing the Water System. The reciprocal easements granted
herein shall be for the benefit of all lots within the Property. The location of all parts of the
Water System shall be determined by cooperation of all lot owners and in a manner which
interferes the least with existing structures including but not limited to houses, outbuildings, and
roads. A backup collective cistern shall be constructed near the Lewis Well and shall be
maintained and operated by the homeowners' association as described below.
3. Ownership of the Lewis Well. The Panorama Reserve Subdivision Property
Owners Association (described below) shall own and operate the Lewis Well, the Well Permit,
pump(s), and any appurtenant parts of the Water System used in common by all lots. No interest
in the Lewis Well and Water System may be transferred apart from the lots within the
subdivision. The Property Owners Association and all members thereof (the lot owners) shall be
mutually responsible for the Well and to operate, maintain, repair, replace and improve the
Lewis Well, pumps and any other appurtenant facilities for their joint benefit. The Well Permit
shall be put in the name of the Property Owners Association. The owner of the lot upon which
the Lewis Well is located or the Manager of the Property Owners Association shall be designated
as the lot owner to receive all mail and documentation relating to the Lewis Well and Water
System. Copies of all such mail and documentation shall be promptly provided to other lot
owners, or made available for review at the convenience of other lot owners.
4. Uses of the Lewis Well; water treatment obligations. The Well shall be used
for outdoor irrigation purposes, including lawn and garden irrigation of not more than one-third
(713) acre per Lot. Irrigation and use of water for domestic animals or livestock shall be
accomplished in a conservationist mannet (e.g.water shall not be allowed to run continuously).
If any stock tanks or watering troughs are used, such troughs shall be filled no more than one (1)
time per day and shall be heated if used in the wintertime. Each lot owner shall install a flow-
restrictor valve on their water supply line from the Lewis Well to ensure that the maximum draw
is not more than five (5) gallons per minute. The restrictor should be placed on the line running
into each lot owner's storage tank (described below in Paragraph 7). Lot owners shall be aware
that well water is not subject to state water treatment regulations, and therefore use of water is at
each lot owner's risk. Any treatment shall be at the option of each individual lot owner. If the
Property Owners Association should elect to construct any joint treatment facility, the costs of
such facility and operation and maintenance thereof shall be assessed as common expenses of the
LEWIS-covenants and well sharing agmt-3

lot owners by the Property Owners Association in the same manner as other common expenses
described in this Declaration.
5. Emergency Repair of Water System. In the event that the lot owners are unable
to agree upon any maintenance, repair replacement or improvement necessary to continue
potable or irrigation water service, any of the lot owners shall be entitled to undertake any
maintenance, repair, replacement or improvement necessary and essential to allow continued
water service. In the event that any lot owner(s) decide to undertake any such work absent the
consent of any other lot owner(s), he or she shall notify the other lot owners in writing. The lot
owner(s) undertaking the work shall, upon completion, provide the other owner(s) with a written
statement of the work performed and an allocation of each lot owner's share of the costs. In the
event that emergency repairs are required, before undertaking any such work each lot owner will
attempt to contact the other lot owner(s) by phone prior to incurring any expenses for such
repairs. Bills for emergency repairs shall be allocated among the three lot owners in the manner
set forth below in Paragraphs 9 and 10 for payment of joint expenses associated with the Potable
Water System associated with the Property.
6. In-house uses preferredl no waste. In-house use of water from the Lewis Well
shall take precedence over use of water for irrigation, domestic animals or livestock. [n the event
of a shortage, all lot owners shall cooperate and shall reduce their uses accordingly to conserve
water. No lot owner shall be entitled to waste water, and each owner shall exercise prudence and
conservation in the use of water in order to allow for the efficient and beneficial use of the Lewis
Well.
l. Storage. At the time that a residence is constructed by each lot owner, the
owner(s) of such shall install a water storage tank not less than 500 gallons in size at such lot
owner(s)' sole cost and expense. Such storage tank shall also be buried at such lot owners'
expense where it can intercept all water for the lot from the well and be plumbed into the
residence to ensure that there is an adequate supply of water for the residence in the event that
the instantaneous pumping rate of the well is inadequate to meet demand. Each lot owner shall
also install a booster pump from each storage tank to help meet peak water demands.
8. No Other Wells. No other exempt wells may be drilled upon any lot within the
Property unless the drilling of any such well does not jeopardize the status of the Well Permit for
the Well which is exempt from administration under the prior appropriation system pursuant to
Colo. Rev. Stat. Section 37-92-602(3XbXD(A). No other wells may be drilled within the
property absent the unanimous written consent of all lot owner(s) and a valid well permit issued
by the Colorado Division of Water Resources. In the event that any lot owner(s) discontinue use
of the Lewis Well with the consent of the other lot owner(s) pursuant to this Paragraph 8, such
discontinuing lot owner(s) interest in the Lewis Well shall revert in pro rata ownership to the
other remaining lot owners still using the Lewis Well.
9. Operation and Maintenance Expenses. The owner(s) of each lot shall be
entitled to use an undivided one-third (1/3) of the water produced by the Lewis Well. The
LEWIS-covenants and well sharing agmt-3

withdrawal of water from the Lewis Well shall be for domestic use in one single-family dwelling
on each Lot, irrigation of not more than one-third (1/3) acre per lot and limited watering of
animals as permitted by the State of Colorado. The owner(s) of each lot served by the Lewis
Well shall pay one-third (1/3) of the costs of maintenance, operation, electricity, repair, and
replacement of the Lewis Well, pump(s) and appurtenant facilities, and the costs of common
water lines or other common water facilities. To the extent practicable, the use of electricity shall
be monitored via an "hour meter" to be attached to the electrical line to the well pump. Such
meter will allow records to be kept of electrical consumption each yezLr. If any lot is not hooked
onto the Lewis Well, the owner(s) of such lot shall not be obligated to contribute toward
operation and maintenance expenses. If any lot is hooked on but has not yet commenced service,
no electricity costs shall be assessed against the owner(s) of such lot. In addition, the owner(s) of
each individual lot shall be exclusively responsible for the costs of installation, operation, repair
or replacement of any facilities used solely by that lot, including individual service lines and any
individual storage tanks. The Declarant will establish the Panorama Reserve Subdivision
Property Owners Association (the "Association") pursuant to the Uniform Unincorporated
Nonprofit Association, Act, Colo. Rev. Stat. Sections 7-30-101 to 119. Each lot owner shall be a
member of said Association and such Association shall be empowered to enforce all terms and
conditions set forth in this Declaration. The Association shall meet once each year in June to
appoint one owner as the manager of the Association. The owner(s) of each lot shall contribute
$100 per lot (total of $300.00 each year) into an account to be held by the manager of the
Association. These contributions shall be used first to pay monthly electrical expenses associated
with operation of the well pump. Any surplus funds each year shall be held over in the account
and designated for use in the event that the pump needs repair or replacement. If these funds are
fully used in any given year, the owner(s) of each lot shall make additional proportional
contributions (1/3, I/3, ll3) as may be necessary to cover expenses for that year. The Property
Owners Association shall operate and maintain the Potable Water System and pay any associated
costs for maintenance, operation, repair, replacement, or improvement of common facilities.
Non-essential maintenance, operation, repair, replacement or improvement of any part of the
Water System shall only be performed after consent of all lot owners. The Property Owners
Association shall be empowered to assess each lot owner proportionally for common expenses in
excess of annual required contributions, and to lien the property of any lot owner who fails to
timely pay any such assessment. All lot owners shall be entitled to an accounting of use of
community funds upon reasonable request to the manager, who shall keep records of
contributions and expenses for operation and maintenance of the Potable Water System.
10. Collection of Joint Expenses. As set forth above, a homeowners association to
be known as the Panorama Reserve Subdivision Property Owners Association shall be
established by the Declarant pursuant to the Uniform Unincorporated Nonprofit Association Act,
Colo. Rev. Stat. Sections 7-30-101 to -119. This Property Owners Association shall levy and
collect from each lot owner his or her share of common expenses for the Lewis Well, electricity,
or other cofirmon expenses within fifteen (15) days from the time at which a written statement of
expenses is presented for payment by the manager of the Property Owners Association or the
owner(s) of any other lot. In the event that the owner(s) of any lot fails to pay his or her share of
common expenses within thirty (30) days of presentment of a statement, interest on the unpaid
LEWIS-covenants and well sharing agmr3

amount shall accrue at the rate of eighteen percent (187o) per annum, beginning thitty (30) days
after presentment. [n the event that any lot owner fails to pay any amount due, including any
accrued interest, within six months from the date of presentment for payment, water service to
the delinquent lot may be discontinued. However, notice shall first be given to the non-compliant
lot owner by certified mail sent no less than thirty (30) days prior to termination of service to the
last known address of the delinquent owner. Any lot owner(s) that have paid the delinquent
owner's share of costs and expenses shall be entitled to pursue any remedy available at law or in
equity for a breach of this Agreement. Reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred by the
owner(s) of any lot(s) or the Property Owners Association in the process of collecting any
amount due from any other lot owner(s) pursuant to the terms of this Declaration shall be paid by
the delinquent lot owner(s).
11. Access to Lots A and B. As shown on the plat map attached as Exhibit A for the
Panorama Reserve Subdivision contemplated herein, Lots A and B will be served by a single
point of access from the County Road known as Panorama Drive meeting the primitive
residential standards called for in Section 9:00 of the Garfield County Subdivision Regulations,
with Lot A and Lot B to each have their own driveway spur off of this access road. The
driveway access shall be a public road that will be maintained by the Property Owners
Association. The Property Owners Association shall assess the owner(s) of Lots A and B each
for fifty percent (507o) of expenses associated with construction, operation, maintenance, repair
or replacement of the access road, which shall be constructed in a manner that complies with all
applicable Garfield County standards, including but not limited to Section 9:00 of the
Subdivision Regulations which also requires thirty-foot wide accesses with a single lane at least
twelve (12) feet in width with a native surface, and a "hammerhead" turnaround at the driveway
spur of each Lot A and Lot B. In addition, this access road and the driveway on Lot A shall
serve as the vehicular and pedestrian access easement to the Well. In accordance with
Paragraphs 9 and 10 above, each Lot (including Lot C) shall be assessed a portion of
maintenance of this access easement as it pertains to the Well to be determined by the Property
Owners Association.
12. Pets. One dog shall be allowed for each residential unit and the dog shall be
required to be confined within the boundaries of the lot upon which the dog's owner resides.
13. Foundations and Individual Sewage Disposal Systems. A professional
registered engineer with the State of Colorado shall engineer all foundations on each Lot and all
individual sewage disposal systems (ISDS) used to serve each Lot. ISDS systems shall be
maintained by each individual lot owner as follows: (1) septic tanks shall be inspected, cleaned
and pumped at a minimum of every two years by a professional; (2) leach and disposal fields of
any kind shall be inspected by a professional every six months; and (3) disposal mechanisms
such as pumps or dosing siphons shall be inspected by a professional every six months. After
each such inspection, the owner of such lot shall provide a copy of the inspection report to the
Property Owners Association.

Lot. Individual lot owners shall be responsible to provide their own grading, drainage and
erosion control plans when they apply for a Garfield County building permit that shows how
each lot will keep flows at historical rates, post construction drainage patterns and minimizing
concentrated flows that discharge to adjacent properlies. In the event drainage facilities are
needed for the access road described in Paragraph 1 1, above, such expenses shall be shared l/3
each by each Lot. All drainage plans must be engineered in accordance with the drainage plan
prepared by Red Mountain Civil, Inc. and on file with the Garfield County Building and
Planning Department.
17. Traffic impact fees. As determined on the final plat of the Panorama Reserve
Subdivision and the Subdivision lmprovement Agreement (SIA), each Lot owner shall be
responsible for their 1/3 share of the traffic impact fee to be submitted to Garfield County.
Declarant shall be entitled for reimbursement for this fee when each Lot is sold.
18. Colorado "Right to Farm" Requirements. Pursuant to C.R.S. $ 35-3-101, the
Lot owners must be prepared to accept the activities, sights, sounds and smells of Garfield
County's agricultural operations as a normal and necessary aspect of living in a County with a
strong rural character and a healthy ranching sector. All Lot owners must be prepared to
encounter noises, odor, lights, mud, dust, smoke, chemicals, machinery on public roads,
livestock on public roads, storage and disposal of manure, and the application by spraying or
otherwise of chemical fertilizers, soil amendments, herbicides and pesticides, any one or more of
which may naturally occur as part of a legal and non-negligent agricultural operation.
19. County Maintenance Requirements. All Lot owners have the obligation under
State law and County regulations with regard to the maintenance of fences and irrigation ditches,
controlling weeds, keeping livestock and pets under control, using property in accordance with

RE: Panorama Reserve Subdivision
Dear Fred:
@Hff'ilHh
Yrr:v,ED
Wr;;:,
ONSUTTINC AND
A review has been performed ofthe supplemental information provided by Palomino Design-Build,
P.C. and Red Mountain Civil for the Panorama Reserve Subdivision. Provided all the modifications
are incorporated as discussed in their correspondence, all questions, concerns, or corrunents have
been addressed satisfactorily with potentially one exception:
In the original review letter item #1 stated:
l. Irrigation does not appear to be a permitted use of the well. Though it appears that the Applicant owns
irrigation shares, no description or design is shown for distribution of irrigation water, per Section
9:51 of the Subdivision Regulations.
The applicant proposes to supply irrigation water from the existing well. In a letter dated August 18,
2006 to the Office of the State Engineer, a request was made to amend the well permit to allow
irrigation as a permitted use. Verification that the request was granted and that irrigation is a
permitted use of the well should be provided either by the applicant or from the Office of the State
Fngineer.
Feel free to call if any of the above needs clarification or if you have any questions or comments.
