I. RELATIONSHIP TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
The site is located within the Silt Urban Area of Influence as shown
on the Garfield County Comprehensive Plan Management District Map.
II. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSAL
A. Site Description: The site is rural in nature, with moderate
slopes and native types of vegetation. Land uses on the site and
adjacent to it are mainly ranching and single family residential.
B. Project Description: The applicant proposes to divide the 33.38
acre parcel into three lots, approximately 11 acres each. One
lot has an existing single family residence while the other two
are vacant.
C. History: The Board of County Commissioners did conditionally
approve an exemption request on this site in May, 1986. The
present request excludes a fourth lot from the original request,
south of Highway 6 & 24, which has been determined to be legally
separate from the 33 acre parcel.
III.MAJOR ISSUES AND CONCERNS
1. The Town of Silt has been contacted with no comments received at
this time.
2. While the majority of the site has only slight soils limitations,
those areas north of the Ware and Hinds Ditch have severe
limitations to septic systems and building foundations.

3. The applicant has submitted two domestic well permits for the
site, and proposes to serve the three lots through shared well
arrangements.
4. Due to the number of splits occurring and proposed out of the
original parcel, no future divisions by exemption should be
allowed on the site.
IV. SUGGESTED FINDINGS
1. The proper posting and public notice was provided as required for
the meeting before the Board of County Commissioners.
2. That the meeting before the Board of County Commissioners was
extensive and complete, that all pertinent facts, matters and
issues were submitted and that all interested parties were heard
at that meeting.
3. That for the above stated and other reasons, the proposed
exemption is in the best interest of the health, safety, morals,
convenience, order, prosperity and welfare of the citizens of
Garfield County.
V. RECOMMENDATION
APPROVAL, with the following conditions:
1. That the following plat notes be included on the recorded
Exemption Plat:
a) No further divisions by exemption from the definition of
subdivision will be allowed.
b) That all irrigation ditches and easements be recognized and
maintained as existing and in place.
c) That each lot may be subject to engineered foundations and
septic systems.
2. That the applicant shall establish an access point and easement
for Lot 3, and include this easement on the Exemption Plat.
3. That proof of a legal and adequate source of water for each lot
be submitted. Should a shared well be utilized, each parcel
shall receive a deeded interest in an existing well, and that
easements for waterlines, access and maintenance of the well be
shown on the Exemption Plat.
4. That all shares of irrigation water associated with the property
be divided proportionately between the lots.
5. That School Impact fees in the amount of $200 per lot be paid for
the creation of two new lots.
6. All representations of the applicant, either within the
application or stated at the hearing before the Board of County
Commissioners, shall be considered conditions of approval.
