TYPE OF REVIEW: Amended Plat
APPLICANT(S): Michael and Lara Fergen
LOCATION: Lot 15 Canyon Creek Estates (476 JB Court)
ZONING: PUD
LOT SIZE: 9.113 acres
I. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSAL
The owners of Lot 15 of Canyon Creek Estates request the Board approve a Plat Amendment in
order to add 0.41 acres (17,859 square feet) to their lot from an adjacent parcel owned by Sills
Investments. The purpose of this transfer is to better accommodate the placement of a new septic
system on Lot 15. The newly adjusted Lot 15 would then contain approximately 9.52 acres.
II. AUTHORITY
Section 6:10 of the Subdivision regulations states that an amendment may be made to a recorded
plat, if such amendment does not 1) increase the number of subdivision lots or dwelling units, or 2)
result in the major relocation of a road or add new roads. This request will not result in either of the
two aforementioned standards and Staff finds these standards are met.
III. STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The Applicant has provided all required documentation and has satisfied the applicable standards for
a plat amendment. Therefore, the Planning Staff recommends that the Board of County
Commissioners, pursuant to Section 6:10 of the Subdivision Regulations of 1984, as amended,
approve this amended plat request with the following conditions:
1. That all representations of the Applicant, either within the application or stated at the meeting
before the Board, shall be considered conditions of approval.
2. That Sills Investments (owner of the adjacent property transferring the .41 acres to the Fergens
complete and file a Boundary Line Adjustment application with the Planning Department.
3. Within 90 days of approval, the Amended Final Plat shall be reviewed (paper copy), then signed
and dated (mylar copy) by the County Surveyor, than signed and dated by the Chairman of the
Board and recorded in the Clerk and Recorder's Office of Garfield County. The Amended Final
Plat shall meet the minimum CRS standards for land survey plats, as required by Colorado state
law, and approved by the County Surveyor and shall include, at a minimum, the information
outlined in Section 5:22 of the Garfield County Subdivision Regulations.
