For Exemption from the Definition
of Subdivision.
Karma Jo Raley
A tract of land located in the NE
1/4 NW 1/4 and Lot 2, Section 11,
T6S, R92W; located approximately
one mile east of Silt, off of State
Highway 6 & 24.
The site consists of 44.61 acres.
Existing and proposed wells
Existing and proposed individual
sewage disposal systems.
ACCESS: Existing and proposed access off of
County Road 218 and Hwy. 6 & 24.
EXISTING ZONING: A/R/RD
ADJACENT ZONING: A/R/RD and A/I
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 44.61
acre parcel into four lots, approximately 11 acres each. Two
lots currently have single family residences and all utilities in
place.
C. History: The parcel has been owned by the Raleys since prior to
1973. In 1978 an 11.23 acre portion of the tract was deeded to
David Raley on the basis of division by Hwy. 6 & 24 but,
apparently, without going through any formal subdivision
procedures. In December of 1985, the Board of County
Commissioners conditionally approved an exemption on this 11 acre
parcel to create a new 2.8 acre lot. This exemption is still
pending, however, the property is included in the current
exemption request in order to legalize the original creation of
the 11 acre tract.
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 and south of the
Grand River Ditch have severe limitations and should be
restricted from development or receive special review prior to
construction.
• •
3. The applicant has submitted three well permits for the site and
proposes to obtain the fourth through augmentation arrangements.
4. The total number of lots that are proposed for the site is 5 when
considering both the present application and previous exemption
still pending. The number of lots proposed is in compliance with
the Subdivision Regulations limitations on exemptions due to the
division of the site by Hwy. 6 & 24. However, no further
divisions by exemption would be allowable on the site, unless
justified by other natural features as per the section 8.52 of
the Subdivision Regulations.
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) Development in those areas south of the Grand River Ditch
and north of the Ware and Hinds Ditch shall be required to
submit a detailed soils study with the building permit
application to determine if engineered foundations and
septic systems will be required.
2. That the applicant establish the existence of access points for
Lots 1 and 3 or obtain the necessary access permits from the
Colorado State Highway Department of Garfield County Road and
Bridge Department.
3. The applicant shall establish the existence of an existing well
or well permit for each lot. Where shared wells, or off lot
wells, are to be used, easements for access and maintenance of
the wells shall 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 three 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.
