Re: Request for Extension of Approval for Ironbridge, Phase III Prcliminary Plan
Parcel No. 2395-0 12-26-001
Dear Ms. Eastley:
My firm represents LB Rose Ranch, LLC, the dcveloper of the Ironbridge commmity in
Garfield County (the "Applicant"). In 2008, the Board of County Commissionus for Guficld
County ("BOCC") approved the Preliminary Plan for the lronbridge, Phase III subdivision under
Resolution No, 2008-42. The Preliminary Plan approval roquirod the Applicant to file a
Technically Complete Final Plat application prior to March 10, 2009 (the expiration of said
approval), unloss extonded. The Applicant has obtained several extensions of the Preliminary Plan
approval for lronbridge, Phase III. Most recently, the Applicant obtained an extension to submit a
Technically Complete Final Plat application'under Resolution 20ll-09 that expired on March 10,
2013. The Applicant only recently discovercd that this expiration date lapsed without obtaining an
additional extension.
By letter dated April 18, 2013, the Applicant requcstod an exemption fiom scction 4-101.I.4
of tho prior Garfiold County Land Use Code for an cxtension of prcliminary plan approval for
Ironbridge, Phase tII (the "Original Request for Extension"). Shortly thereafter, Garfiold County
roviswod and considered amendments to the land use code that would affeqt the Applicant's
Original Roquest for Extension. Applicant attended several hearings with the BOCC regarding such
amendments. County staff directed Applicant to withdraw its Original Request for Extension
pcnding final approval of amendments to the land use code, On July 15, 2013, the BOCC approved
the land use code amendments, including those amended section 4-101.I.4.
Accordingly, the purpose of this letter is to request approval fiom the BOCC for sxtension
of Preliminary Plan approval for lronbridge, Phase III pursuant to Oarfield County Land Use Code
Section 4-101.I., which states:
4, New Application Required. If an Applicant fails to timely request an
extonsion as set forth in section 4-101.I,, the approval will be void and the
Applicant must submit a new application for the desired Land Use Changc or
KARP NEU HANLON, P.C.

division of land approval notwithstanding the foregoing, the BOCC may
grant an extension of an otherwise expired approval upon a finding by the
BOCC that the failure to file for an extension was due to extenuating
circumstances and that it benefits the public interest to grant the extension.
Herc, the existence of numerous extenuating cirqumstances warrant an extension of the Preliminary
Plan approval for lronbridge, Phase III. Further, dre public interest will be served by such an
cxtension.
The Applicant is a banlaupt entity ourrently under Chapter 1l bankruptcy in the Unitod
States Bankruptcy Court of the Southem District of Now York, Case No. 08-13555. The Applicant
has not been in a financially viable position in which to complete the development of Ironbridge,
Phase III. Pursuant to the bankruptcy, the Applicant has the Ironbridge property for sale. Given the
precarious state of the Applicant, it has simply not had the resources in which to develop Phase III;
however, the Applicant seeks to maintain the Preliminary Plan approval for the property. Further,
the Preliminary Plan approval has only recently lapsed. My firm did not rtpresent the Applicant
when it obtained the most recent Preliminary Plan approval extension. Upon change of counsel,
notice was nol provided of the pending approval expiration. When the expimtion was discovered,
we immediately contacted the Garlield County Community Development Department as desqribed
above in this letter. [n regard to public intercst, obtaining an extension of the Preliminary Plan
approval for Phase III will help facilitate more rapid development of this property once a change in
ownership occurs. In addition, approval would avoid foes for public hearings and review of a
project that is unchanged. The public would be best served by such an outcome.
As a rcsult, wc rtspectfully request that the BOCC grant the Applicant's rcquost and,
pursuant to Land Use Code Seotion 4-101.I.4, extend the Preliminary Plan approval for lronbridge,
Phase III for two (2) years. Feel fipe to contact me with any questions you may have.
Very truly yours,
JJC:cc: Client.
