A. Subdivision Regulations. Section 8.52 of the Garfield County Subdivision
Regulations state that "No mote than a total of four (4) lots, parels, intercsts
or dwelling units will b crcated from any parel, as that parel was described in
the rccords of the Garfield County clerk and Recotderb Oflice on lanuary l,
1973, and is aot a part of a rccorded subdiuision; howeve4 any paret to be
diuided by exemption that is spht by a public righhoFw,ay (State or Federal
highway, Countyroad orrailroad) ornaturalfeatute, preventingjoint useofthe
proposd tracts, and the di uision occurc along the public rigltt-ofr way ornatunt
feature, such parwls thercby aeated may, in the discrction of the Boatd, not be
considercd to have ben ctuted by exanption with rcgard to the four @ tog
parel, intercst ordwelling unit limitation otherwise applicabte;
Records in the Garlreld County Clerk and Recorder's Oflice indicate that the
paroel was approximately 39 acres in size in July of 1967. (Book 3g5, page 573).
Based on Section 8.52, the property is eligible for four (4) parcels through the
exemption process. Additional splits are possible through the full subdivision
process.
Toning. AII lots conform to the two (2) acre lot minimum lot size for the
A/R/RD zone district.
r'gal Access. The applicant is proposing to acoess the proposed lots via a
deeded easement, referred to as Harmony Road. Harmony Road, which
provides acce{s to County Road 102, was dedicated to the public through a
subdivision approved in EagleCounty. Although peculiar, the Row wasnot
formally recorded in Garfield County, so it is not considered a public right-of-
way for purposed of ensuring acoess to a public right-of-way.
The recorded deed (Book 381, pages 266-70) grants an undivided one-Iifth
interest to five individuals. Since the parcel cannot be traced back to one of the
original fiveproperty owners, theapplicant wasrequired to obtainaneasement
agreement with Kip Kgfki. .Documentation regarding the easement agreement
is attached on page$ /qA'.
Water and Sewer. The applicant has obtained a domestic well permit to allow
for domestic use within three (3) dwelling units and irrigation of not more than
one acre of land for each dwelling unit. A copy of the well permit is attached on
page:12.-. A copy of well test documentation indicates that the well produces
in excess gf 30 GPM (see letter from Ruan sarnuelson on page ^23- l.
Individual ISDS is proposed for each lot. Soil units of the site include Forelle
and Brownsto. These soil types present only moderate constraints to ISDS with
regards to slope. As indicated above, the sl<ipes on the site do not appear to
exceed 15 percent. No plat notes appear necessary in regards to ISDS feasibility.
