C. Request: The Reed's are requesting an exemption to create a 16.840 acre parcel
that is split from the remaining 80+ acres by County Road 243.
III. MAJOR ISSUES AND CONCERNS
1. Section 8:10 (Applicability -Exemptions) states that the Board has discretionary
authority to except a division of land from the definition of subdivision.
Following a review of the facts of each application, the Board may approve
•
conditionally or deny an exemption request. The Board may not grant an
exemption unless the applicant can demonstrate compliance with zoning, legal
access, adequate water and sewer, state environmental health standards,
necessary road and drainage improvements, fire protection, adequate easements
and school impact fees.
2. Exemption Criteria. Section 8:10, states that the Board may approve a total of
four (4) lots parcels, interests or dwelling units, as that parcel was described in
the records of the Garfield County Clerk and Recorder's office on January 1,
1973. The exemption parcel is being requested due to the natural split of County
Road 243.
3. Water and Sewer. The applicant has applied for a well permit on the property.
No response has been received from the State Engineer's Office. Staff suggests
that a favorable recommendation from the State be a condition of approval.
Sewage disposal will be handled by ISDS. The predominate soils on the site
include the Begay type which SCS classifies as having only moderate constraints
to home site development and ISDS.
4. Natural Hazards. The Lincoln-Devore mapping did not include the upper E1K
Creek drainage.
IV. SUGGESTED FINDINGS
1. The proposal is in general compliance with the Garfield County Comprehensive
Plan and the Garfield County Zoning Regulations.
2. The proposed land use would be consistent and compatible with the existing
surrounding land uses.
3. The proposal is in best interest of the health, safety, morals, convenience, order,
prosperity and welfare of the citizens of Garfield County.
V. RECOMMENDATION
APPROVAL, but of only one (1) additional lot, subject to the following conditions:
1. All representations of the applicant shall be considered conditions of approval
unless otherwise stated by the applicant.
2. The applicant shall have 120 days to complete the required conditions of
approval. Extensions of 120 days may be granted by the Board for a period of
up to one (1) year.
3. The applicant shall submit $200 in School Impact Fees, prior to the signing of
an exemption plat.
4. A final exemption plat will be submitted, indicating the legal description of the
property, dimension and area of all proposed lots or separate interests to be
created, access to a public right-of-way, and any proposed easements for
drainage, irrigation, access and utilities.
•
5. A driveway permit shall be obtained by the Road and Bridge Department prior
to signing of a final plat.
6. Control of noxious weeds is the responsibility of the property owner.
A favorable response from the State Engineer's Office shall be received by the
Planning Department prior to the signing of a final Exemption Plat.
