Martin & Patricia L. Martin as joint tenants and Mickey M. Martin LOCATION Approximately 2 miles SW of Parachute, CO at 700 County 303 in the NW 1/4 of the NE 1/a of Section 20, Township 7 South, Range 95 West of the 6"` PM, Garfield County. I. BACKGROUND As you will recall, the Board approved a request for an Exemption from the Definition of Subdivision on March 20, 2006. Specifically, the Board approved the split of a 40 -acre property into two 20 -acre tracts where each new tract has direct public access from County Road 303, water to each lot will be provided by a shared well and wastewater is to be handled from Individual Sewage Disposal Systems. As a result of the approval, the Applicant has 120 days to provide an Exemption Plat to the Board for signature. This date is set for July 18, 2006. II. REQUEST Due to poor water quality tests from the subject well, the Applicant requests a six-month extension in order to fully address the water issue. (See the attached request). III. AUTHORITY The Board has routinely approved extensions up to 1 year for an Exemption so long as the request was made prior to the expiration dated. In this case, the request has been made in a timely fashion. Further, the reason for the extension is to better accommodate a condition of approval required by the Board which demonstrates the Applicant has been working in good faith to satisfy the County's requirements. IV. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends the Board grant a 1 -year extension for the submittal of the Martin Exemption which will expire on March 20, 2007 -1-
