Subdivision Prelimina ry Plan Application
Purpose
The purpose of this application is to provide the necessary information for "Preliminary Plan" review, as
outlined in Section 4.00 of the Garfield County Subdivision Regulations, for a proposed 26'lot
subdivision located west of the intersection ofcounty Road 1ti ana Cattle Creek Road on Missouri
Heights. The subject property is known as the Lowei Laurence Ranch and containt "OO_t:ilT.11l"1Pl.
acre-s. The planning iommission reviewed the Sketch Plan application for this project on January E"'ot
this year. The comments offered by the Staff and the Planning Commission during the Sketch Plan
reviiw have been addressed and are incorporated in this application.
Backg rotrnd
The subject property is one of two parcels that together have been known as the Laurence Raneh, which
has beei an bngoing agricultural oieration for ovir 100 years. Until recently, the ranch had been
operated by Ro-ger iu,ir.n... The Ranch was comprised of two_large, non-contiguous parcels (see-Figure
t). fn" No.tt iarcel consists of approximately l,i0O acres and is located just ery] of the Consolidated
Reservoir. The South Parcel, whiclt is the subject of this application, contains 478.7 acres. The North
parcel is undeveloped while the South Parcel f,as been impibved with several buildings and fences and
has been used as the ranch homestead. Both parcels contain valuable wildlife habitat, open space and
agricultural uses.
The Laurence family put the property up for auction in 2000, in part to satisff_estate taxes due as a result
of the death of his father rornl yiurjearlier. The Laurence Ranch was offered for auction as separate
parcels ranging in size from 35 to 200 acres. Bids were offered on all of the separate parcels during the
auction. The winnin! bid was submitted by someone wanting to purchase the property in total and whose
bid exceeded the cumulative bids on the separate parcels. After adeal with the highest bidder from the
auction fell through, the Aspen Valley Land trusf (AVLT) purchased the South Parcel. Given the fact
that there were offers on aliof the separate parcels at the auction, AVLT recognized the imminent threat
that the property would be divided and sold, thus destroying its wildlife, open space and agricultural
values. Though AVLT no longer holds a contract on the North Parcel, they are still working on fi-nding.a
conservation tuyr, *itting to p-urchase the North Parcel and keep the 1,300-acre property essentially in its
current state. The South iarcel is proposed to be subdivided under a limited development scheme
preserving a majority of the property for its historic uses.
With this stratery in mind, AVLT solicited proposals from land development companies and entered into
an agreement to*sell the South Parcel to an entity ownedby the Snowmass Land Company providedthey
*oja develop the property under a cluster appioach with a small numb er (26) of residential lots and to
place a conservation easement over the balance of the property. The conservation easement has been
Lxecuted and a copy of this document is included with this application. Under this agreement, AVLT
retained responsibiiity to process the necessary developmentapplication through the County. This is a

unique partnership for the Roaring Fork Valley and, if successful, could become a valuable model for the
pr.ri*ition of important agricultural lands and open space in the region.
Property Description
.The subject propcrty contains 47E.7 acresand is located in the Missouri Heights area approximately 5
miles northeasttf Carbondale (see Vicinity Map/Figure l). The property is located to the north and west
of County Road 1 I 3. County Road I I 5 runs along the north side of the site. The properly is
approximately 3 %miles north of Highway 82 along Catherine Store Road (County Road 100) just past
the intersection with Cattle Creek Road.
The property abuts BLM land to the west and south as shown on the Vicinity Map. A portion of the BLM
hndls designated as the Fisher Creek Special Management Area. This area is open for limited public use and
includes u p-ting area and several traili. One of these lrails tuns along the west property line of the k"!.
The privately owied lands that abut the property on the north and east are currently utilized for agricultural
purplr"r. Ges in the surrounding area are primarily agricultural though there are other residential
subdivisions nearby including the Panorama Ranch and High Aspen Ranch subdivisions.
Figure 2 is a survey map showing the existing conditions on the property. Existing development on the
.
prlperty consists of the'ranch hoirestead, which was comprised of two farmhouses, a barn and an historic
i tOb" iog house. The westernmost ranch house, which had been vacant for years and was in poor and
potentiall! dangerous condition, was removed in July of 2002. The other main house remains and is currently
Leing remodelJd. A portion of this structure will be remodeled for use as the ranch manager's dwelling. The
remainder of the sructure will be converted to an on-site sales office. The historic house is currently vacant.
There are also four decreed ponds on the property that are used for irrigation. These ponds contain water, as
available, out of the Consolidated Reservoir. One of these ponds was improved during the summer of 2002 to
accommodate the necessary augmentation water as specified in the'owater augmentation plan" which is
included as Attachment 4 of this application. There are also numerous ranch roads and fences on the
property. The terrain of the properfy is rolling and includes one large knoll located on the south end of the
iranch.- There is also a steepcliif along the southwest edge of the property, which forms a natural boundary
between the Ranch and BLM land to the southwest. Vegetation on the properly is primarily field grass
interspersed with areas of sage and sparse scrub oak and pinion-juniper stands. The south side of the knoll is
.ou"rid with a moderately dinse pinion-juniper stand. The current owner resumed haying operations in_the
summer of 2002. Prior to the current owner purchasing property, the Ranch had not been hayed for the last
two or three seasons.
Proiect Description
Figure 3 is a reduced copy of the Preliminary Plan Map and shows the development scheme for the
pr6perty. The plan includes a total of 26 new lots covering approximately 155.6 acres. The Applicant is
volunteering to limit the floor area of the homes on Lots 3 through 26 to 8,000 square feet. The floor area
of Lots 1 and 2 would be limited to 12,000 square feet. Proposed road rights-of-way will occupy
approximately 20.6 acres. The remaining acreage of the ranch will be common open space for the use of
tt i tot o*ne.i and will be permanently preserved undor the provisions of a conservation easement to be
held by the Aspen Valley Land Trust. The common open space will continue to be ranched. A
homeowners association will be established to maintain the open space, roads and other common facilities

* Represents the existing house to remain as ranch manager's unit.
The gross density of the project (not including the existing house which will be used as a ranch manager's
unit) is approximately one unit per 18.4 acres, which is significantly below that allowed under the
County's Zoningand Comprehensive Plan designations. The subject property is zoned Agricultural
Residential Rural Density (A/R/RD). This zone district allows one unit per two acres or approximately
239 units, given the acreage of the property. The proposed density is approximately one-ninth the
allowed density in the zone district. The subject propefty is designated on the Future Land Use Map in
the Garfield County Comprehensive Plan for low-density residential use. The recommended density in
this land use category is ten acres or more per dwelling unit. Using this standard, the property could
accommodate approximately 48 dwelling units, nearly twice the proposed number of units.
The proposed lots have been located to minimize visibility from the surrounding area while also
minimizing encroachment into historically irrigated areas as shown on the Illustrative Site Plan (Figure
4). To accomplish this, the lots are arranged in several clusters. In general terms, the lots could be
described as being located around the perimeter of the agricultural areas of the property. The Preliminary
Plan includes a table itemizing the acreage of each proposed lot. The lots range in size from just over
four acrcs to just over eleven acres. Most of the lots are located in relatively open areas with little
vegetation. The one exception to this is Lot 19, which is located in an area of moderately dense trees.
Lots l8 through 22 are located around the top of the knoll in the southern portion of the property. Of
these lots, only 20, 2l and22 are very visible. Lots 18 and 19 are located in a draw and out of view from
most locations. To reduce the visibility of Lots 20 through 22,the building envelopes are set back from
the edge of the slope. This leaves ample room to install additional landscaping, if necessary, to further
screen the houses from the north and/or east.
Lots 11 though 17 have been located along the edge of the cliff that overlooks Cattle Creek Road and the
BLM land to the south. The building envelopes on these lots have been set back from the ridge so that a
structure meeting the County's height restriction (25 feet) would not be visible from Cattle Creek Road.
This setback was verified in the field and is labeled on the Illustrative Site Plan as "Caffle Creek Road
Viewshed Setback Line."
Lots 6 through l0 are located in the interior of the property and will not be visible from off-site locations.
Similarly, Lots23 through 26 are located in a draw and are well screened from most off-site locations.
Lots 4 and 5 will be visible from County Road 115 as it turns to the north. However, there is existing
vegetation in this area that will help screen the homes on these lots. The natural grade also provides some
screening for these lots. Landscaping could also be added to provide funher screening from County Road

115. The water storage tank for the private water system will also be located in this area. The tank will
contain approximatety t SO,OOO gallons and will be approximately 16 feet tall and 16 feet in diameter.
Lots I through 3 contain the most visible building sites. These sites will be visible from County Roads
I I 5 and 12 l1o the north. The view of these sites from County Road I I 5 is confined to a relatively short
segment of the Road at a distance of over 2000 feet. Visibility of these sites from County Road 12l is
from a distance of a mile or more. The building envelope on Lot 3 has been located in a depression
behind an existing natural berm. This should screen all but the top 6 to 10 feet of a structure on this lot.
The Lot 2 building envelope is located on an east-facing slope. This location was selected for the existing
mature scrub oakiegetation located on the north side of the envelope. This vegetation will provide some
screening from the north during the summer months and could be augmented to reduce the visibility of a
residencJ. Similarly, the buildlng envelope for Lot lis located behind an existing stand of scrub oaks that
will provide screening during summer months.
The proposed road system includes a loop road that utilizes two existing ranch road access drives onto
County I tS. fn. .nt i"s into the development are planned to be improved with simple fencing Utd
landscaping. The entry area near the existing ranch homestead has been modified somewhat to
accommodate a simple log arch and entry landscaping. Some of the existing ranch structures were
removed, though thi cunJnt plan calls for the historic structures; barn and the existing occupied ranch
house to remain. A trail systim is also planned for the common open space. The preliminary alignment
for the trail system is depicted on tlle Illustrative Site Plan and the Preliminary Plan. For the most prt,
this ftail systim will be iocated within the easements for the private roads or within the Common Open
Space. No easements are required for the proposed trail alignment. All common ranch facility structures,
oiher than benches and picnic shelters, will be confined to the Common Ranch Facilities Building
Envelope shown on the Preliminary Plan drawings.
The roads have been designed to comply with County road standards as identified in Section 9.3 of the
Subdivision Regulations. Based on tlie anticipated trip generation and assuming traffic will be $stributed
in both directions on Cattle Creek Ridge Road, the estimated traffic on this road will be rough{16}
ADT. The rationale for this estimate is included in the engineering report provided by Sopris Ehgifreering
(see Attachment 10). Given these assumptions, the proposed roads qualiff under the "Rural Access"
category in the County's Road Standards. The proposed roads have been designed with 1l-foot drive
lanei and Z-footshouiders either side of the drive lanes. The drive lanes for the main roads are intended
to have a chip & seal surface. The extended driveways that serve lots 3, 8,24,25, and26 are proposed to
have two 7-foot-wide drive lanes for a total width of 14 feet. These access drives may have a gravel
surface.
Review Cri.teria
Section 4.33 of the Subdivision Regulations requires compliance with Garfield County's Zoning
Resolution, Subdivision Regulations, Road Standards, Comprehensive Plan as well as other applicable
state and federal regulations and policies. The Code also requires the County to consider compatibility
with existing land uses in the surrounding area. In the following paragraphs we discuss the project's
compliance with the policies and standards contained in these documents. Where appropriate, we have
included the actual language from the pertinent document for reference. This language is highlighted in
bold and italic.

Zonins Resulations ComPliance
The proposed project complies with all requirements of the Garfield county ZoningResolution' The
subject property is locatedin the ARRD zone district. The minimum lot area allowed in this zone district
is two (2) acres. The lots proposed for the subject proPerty areall greater thal f9u1.Yes in size' The
acreage of all of the proposed lots is shown on ttt. b..ii'inury Plan (see 24" by 36" Preliminary Plan
drawing set).
The zoping regulations also require minimum setbacks as follows:
Front Yard (local streets): 25 feetfrom front lot line
25 feet
10 feet or half the height of the principal building
The preliminary plan depicts building envelopes within which all residential structures and landscaping
will be confined. fne Uriitaing .nu.l6p., have been designed to comply with-these.setbacks' The
building envelops for Lots l lihrough'r6 have also been Iocated so that a 25-foot-high building located
within the envelope cannot be seen from Cattle Creek Road. The building envelopes on these lots were
set back from the edge of the ridge specifically to accomplishthis. In all cases, the proposed setbacks
meet or exceed those required pu-rsuant to the Zoning Resolution. The Deed of Conservation Easement
executed between aspen valley Land Trust and the-Snowmass Land Company also includes a clause
requiring compliance with all development approvals-granted for this propefty' Therefore' all conditions
established by the county in connection *itt ttr" subdivision approvali requested in this application will
be granted the additionuifo.". of the conservation agreement. This will provide another layer of
oversight with respect to development on the properiy. A copy of the Deed of Conservation Easement is
included as Attachment 6'
The ARRD zone district also limits the height of all buildings to 25 feet. Since no buildings are proposed
with this application, we believe this issue ihould be left to ihe control of the County. In exercising its
authority to control the development of structures through the review and issuance of building permits,
th; Co*ry will require compliance with the appropriatJ!.ieht restriction in place at the time building
permits are ,evi"wid for each of the proposed-lots. Similarly, the Zoning Resolution limits lot coverage
within the ARRD zone district to 15 percent. This limitation should be enforced at the time building
prr.it, are reviewed. The Appli.urf it willing to accept compliance with all applicable zoning
requirements as a condition of approval.

Since the proposed system will utilize an on-site well field as the source of raw water, several wells were
drilled and tested for production and water quality. Attac]nment 5a is a report from Zancanella and
Associates, tnc., *trich p.oriO", information conlerning the reliability and potability of the water from
these wells. This reportfinds that with storage facilitieJthe three weils identified on the Preliminary Plan
(RCC Well #5, RCC Well #7 and Lot #24 V;ell) would provide adequate water for the proposed
development. The combined output of these three wellsls 105 gpm. The report also notes that it will be
important to continue the historic practice of irrigating the Rancliwith water from the Consolidated
Reservoir via the Etta and Laurence Ditches'
Water samples were collected during the pumping test a1d sent to Evergreen Analytical' Inc' for
independent analysis. The results received to date-show that all potential contaminants for which tests
were conducted were below the Maximum Contaminant Levels as established by the Colorado
Department of Pubtic Health and Environment (GDPHE). Attachment 5b is an addendum to the
Zancanellareport that provides the results of the analysis for Inorganic Chemicals.(IOC), radiological,
bacteriological, and corrosivity for the Lot#24. This amendment shows that, similar to the results for
RCC Well #5 and RCC Well #T,thewater from Lot#24 Well contains contaminants at levels well below
the Maximum Contaminant Levels established by the Colorado Department of Public Health and
Environment (CDP}{E)'

Comprehensive Plan ComPliance
The subject property is located in study Area 1 of the Garfield County comprehensive Plan' which was
adopted in SlptlmUe, of 1995. When ihis plan was adopted, the County was struggling with the impacts
of an historic development pattern that was driven by the predominant two-acre zoning that covers- much
of the private land in the County. As a resulg the Comprehensive Plan includes a number of policies
aimed at reducing density in future developrnents and ireserving open space and.agricultural uses' This
is most directly it-tustratea in Objective S.i for Recreation and Open Space, which reads:

"The County will support and encourage the creation of open space through the development and
implementation of zoning, subdivision and PUD regulations designed to retain and enhance existing
open space ttses."
This idea is also contained in the agricultural goal statement in the Plan, which states:
"To ensure that existing agricultural uses are allowed to continue in operation and compatibilily issues
are addressed dwing project review."
The proposed development scheme has been designed to preserve a vast majority of the irrigated
meadows as well as the irrigation ditches and other 4gricultural improvements on the propefi in order to
allow continued agricultural use. Approximately $l}p¢ of the properly's total acreage has been
preserved in common open space and will remaiir= in agricultural operation. Another 105 acres, contained
within the proposed lots, will be restricted against the development of any structures or landscaping under
the covenants that are being established for the project. A conservation easement deed has been executed
for the property which states, "Easement Area will remain forever predominantly in its agricultural,
scenic, natural and open space condition subject to the uses of the Easement Area permitted under the
("Permitted IJses")." The "permitted uses" referred to in this clause includes the proposed development
as described in this application (subject to approval and conditions required by Garfield County) and
those other uses necessary to manage the property for agricultural purposes, including ditch maintenance,
erosion control, fence repair and maintenance, relocation of the existing barn and homestead and
demolition of any non-historic structures, etc.
The pro'perty has also been carefully planned to minimize visibility of the proposed residential
development. Lots have been carefully sited to prevent structures from breaking a ridgeline as viewed
form Cattle Creek Road. Miny of the residential units will not be visible from the county roads in the
area. The intent is to preserve the open space character of the subj ect property and surrounding area to
the greatest extent possible.
The Proposed Land Use Map in the Comprehensive Plan identifies the subject property as appropriate for
"low density residential" use. The recommended density is one unit per l0 acres or less. The gross
density of the project is approximately one unit per 18 acres, which is just over half that recommended in
the Comprehensive Plan. We believe the project clearly conforms to the policies and recommendations of
the Comprehensive Plan.
efuntv Rord Standards and Policies Comnliance (Section 9.30)
The proposed roads fall into the Rural Access designation in the County's Road Standards, based on the
anticipated trip generation (see Attachment l0). The proposed roads have been designed to comply with
the Garfield County Road Standards as outlined in Section 9.35 of the Subdivision Regulations. Most of
the proposed road system length is comprised of a main loop road. However, there are several spur roads
with cul-de-sacs that provide access to residential lots. The design of these cul-de-sacs is discussed later
in this section. The main roads will be paved with a chip-seal surface, which meets the minimum
requirement of the road standards. The roads are designed with no curb or gutter. No segment of the
proposed roads exceeds l0 percent in grade. Though the roads are intended to be private and will be
maintained by the Coulter Creek Ranch Homeowner's Association, a fifty-foot R.O.W. has been
provided. This has been done to match the County Road Standards in the event the subdivision roads are
ever turned over to the County.

Streets and roads shall be designed so thal alignments will join in a logical manne4 such that adjacent
road systems can be combined toform a continuous routefrom one area to another;
The locations where the proposed subdivision roads intersect with County Road I l5 are existing ranch
road access points and have been chosen primarily because they are logical points to serve the proposed
development scheme on the subject property. The subject property is surrounded by public lands and
other agricultural uses and there are currently no roads on any of the adjacent properties with which to
connect. Further, due to the ownership patterns and terrain of the lands to the west, south and east it is
unlikely that there will ever be a scenario where road connections with the adjacent properties in these
areas will be logical. The subject property is bordered on the south and west by BLM land and there are
cliffs and steep slopes along most of this boundary. Similarly, it is unlikely that development scenarios
for lands to the east of the subject property will create access roads that would be conducive to making
connections with roads on the subject property. Coulter Creek and County Road 113 are located
immediately to the east of the property in a relatively deep valley. There are steep slopes on either side of
this valley that would make it impractical to construct access roads from the adjacent properties on either
side of County Road I 13. In addition, there is a narrow strip of land located between the subject property
and County I13, which is owned by an adjoining property owner. This strip of land is not wide enough to
accommodate development and separates the subject property from the County Road.
The land to the north of the subject property could accommodate development that would have access
roads intersecting with County 115 from the north. The access roads proposed for the Laurence Ranch
intersect County Road 115 at locations that would allow for connections to these lands. However, since
the roads on the Laurence Ranch properly will not connect to any other through roads there is no benefit
to making such a connection.
Slreets shall hary the names of existing streets in the same alignment; otherwise there shall be no
duplication of street names in the County;
There are no streets or roads in the area of the subject property that share the same alignment as the
proposed roads. The Preliminary Plan Map shows the proposed road names. The applicant is not awarre
of any duplication with any other road names in the County.
Cul-de-sac design;
Due to the physical characteristics ofthe subject properly and the conservation objectives ofthe project,
culde-sacs are utilized in the road design. The Streets and Roadways standards found in the Subdivision
Regulations provide specific guidelines for the design of cul-de-sacs. The code limits the length of cul-
de-sacs to no more than 600 feet. However, the Code also stipulates that the County can allow longer
cul-de-sacsfor topographical reasons provided it can be shown thatlire protection and emergency
sccess can be accommodated as part of the longer design. The proposed road plans include two cul-de-
sacs that are longer than 600 feet. One of these in referred to as Fisher Creek Lane and is located in the
west end of the proper,ty and the other is called Saddle Drive and provides access to the knoll at the south
end ofthe property.
Fisher Creek lane is roughly 925 feet in length and provides access for three lots. The access for one of
these lots (Lot 8) utilizes a private driveway that extends roughly 980 feet beyond the end of the cul-de-
sac. Fisher Creek Lane and the private drive extension were designed to accomplish two objectives. The
first objective was to minimize the amount of irrigated land lost to road construction and the other was to
minimize disturbance to steep slopes in the area on the west side of Lots 8 and 9. The proposed road and

compatibility with Existins Land uses in the surroundins Area
The subject property is ideally suited for low-density residential development both from the standpoint of
the views and privacy created for the proposed residential lots and ttre auitity to develop the property with
minimal impact to the surrounding area. There are several reasons for this, including the fact that the
propefty is bordered on the west alnd soutn bj gLIyI hna. The property also contains rolling terrain that

flow for firefighting purposes for Lots l1 through 17 and 23 through 26. Details of the proposed hydrants
are shown on Sheet 13 of the Preliminary Plan drawing set and are designed in accordance with the
specifications of the Carbondale and Rural Fire District. For those lots where pressure is not adequate for
firefighting purposes, a minimum 5,000-gallon on-site water storage tank will be provided. These tanks
will provide storage for domestic water and will also be fitted with a dry hydrant for firefighting.
Individual lot owners may opt to install a larger storage tank for firefighting and irrigation purposes. The
storage tanks and dry hydrants will be designed to comply with the specifications required by the
Carbondale and Rural Fire Protection District.
The subject prope(y is located partially within the Carbondale and Rural Fire Protection District
boundaries. The Applicant has submitted a petition to expand the District boundaries to include the
balance of the properly (Attachment 13). Figure I of the petition shows the current District boundaries
as they relate to the proposed development on the property. The Fire District Board has met several times
to discuss annexation. The Board directed the Applicant to work with the Staff and a recommglCgE =-
wildfire expert on a "wildfirehazard mitigation plan, " which is expected to be completed i(ApriUln
addition to creating a wildfire mitigation plan and installing a hydrant system on the property, other steps
are being taken by the Applicant to assist in fighting fires on the subject property and in the surrounding
area. The main water storage tank for the development will be available for firefighting purposes when
needed. This tank will contain 120,000 gallons and will be located on the west end of the property as
depicted on the Preliminary Plan. Also, an easement for an antennae site is being established near the top
of the knoll on the property. This antenna will improve radio communications for fire fighters and other
emergency personnel in the surrounding area. At the time this application was prepared, the Applicant
was still working with the Fire District Staff on these and other issues. More information will be
provided on this issue as it becomes available.
Site design for wildJire mitigation
The site plan has been carefully planned to minimize wildfire danger for the proposed residential
structures. Most of the proposed lots are located in open areas where native grasses are the predominant
form of vegetation. Only two of the proposed lots (Lots l8 and 19) are located in an area where there is
significant overstory vegetation and slopes. The proposed building envelope on Lot 19 is located in a
stand of mature scrub oaks and pinion juniper. There is also significant vegetation down slope of this
site. However, the trees in this area are relatively widely dispersed. As a result, thinning to accommodate
wildfire mitigation could be accomplished without losing too many trees. We would note that there is no
building site on Lot l9 that is significantly better in terms of its exposure to wildfire. There are small
areas within this lot that have fewer trees but the slope and soil in these areas are not conducive to
development (steep slopes, rocky soils).
The applicant is committed to complying with the necessary mitigation measures to protect the proposed
building sites from wildfire hazard. However, we would like to accomplish this with the minimum loss of
vegetation. We would suggest that a strategy that includes structural measures as well as minimum
thinning be considered. We are currently working a wildfire expert to determine the best plan for
mitigating wildfire hazards on the property.
Public Sites and Open Spaces (Section 9.80)

factors including the future requirements of the subdivision and its inhabitants. The proposed subdivision
creates a relatively small number of lots and will result in the permanent preservation of approximately
303 acres of agricultural land and open space identified as o'Common Open Space" on the Preliminary
plan. This represents roughly 63.4 percent of the gross acreage_of the property. Further, all development
and landscaping on tn" j."opor"d lois will be limitJd to the building envelopes thgwn on the Preliminary
plan. since the buildini enuelopes contain approximately 5l acrei, the other 104 acre-s contained in the
proposed lots will ,"rnuT, in essentially their current state. This will have the effect of preserving roughly
+00 urr"r ofopen space. This is nearly 84 percent ofthe total acreage.
The property is located immediately adjacent to a large area of public lands owned by the Bureau of Land
Management (BLM). The Fisher i.".[ Special Man-agement Area, which is part of the BLM lands, abuts
the suEject property on the west and includes trails open for public use.
The property owner will also pay the required School Site Acquisition Fee, which is due at Final Plat'
we have calculated the School Sit" a.quirition Fee based on the formula in Section 9.81 of the
Subdivision Regulations, since the subject properly is located within the RE-l School District' The fee
calculation is based on the unimproved maikeivalue of an amount of land determined by the Cgyntv |nd
identified as the ..land dedication standard." The land dedication standard for single-family residential
development, as identified in the subdivision Regulations, is-670 square feet per residential unit 2
proporld. The fee calculation for the proposed project is as follows:
proposed residential units x 870 = Land dedication basis x unimproved market value = Cosh'
in-lieufee.
or
26 x 870 = 22,620 sf (,52 acres) x $9,922'71/acre = fil&A
Notes: l) The unimproved market value is based on the total purchase price divided by the total
acreage.

conligaration of the road allowsfor 150feet of visibility to the east and 350feet to the north. If the
oririt is movei 80 feet to the eait, which is at the approximate apex of the corner, sight distance is
increused in bofh directions, resulting in about 400 feet visibility to the north and 800 feet to the east'
Mr. Thoe noted that the Road and niidge Department would entertain the idea of a 24" lill on the
CounE Road, centered on the driveway and tapering to zero at the 125 linearfeet in each direction.
Suchlitl would reduce the excavation needed within the prope$, as well as improve the grade of the
County Road
Response: The Applicant met with Mr. Thoe on the property in January and discussed his concerns in
detail. With respeii to the Eastern Access, the Applicant intends to pursue a new access permit with the
County Engineer's office at the same time the permit for improvement and relocation of the Western
Access is o-btained. Mr. Thoe agreed that this would be acceptable. Mr. Thoe also requested that the
grade at the Eastern Access be modified slightly to prevent drainage and track-out problems at this
location. This work was completed shortly after the site visit'
In accordance with Mr. Thoe's request, the westem access drive has been redesigned as depicted on the
Preliminary Plan. The point of access onto County Road I 15 has been moved roughly 80 feet to the east
thus increasing the sighi distance in both directions. We have determined that raising the grade of County
Road 1 ly| inihearea of the Western Access, as suggested by Mr. Thoe, will not be necessary since
relocating the road to the east provides the necessary sight distance without raising the road gade.
Kelly lVood of the Colorado Department of Wildffi provided thefollowing comments (which
may be seen in more detail in Exhibit D):
Fencing shall be kept to a minimum andfollow the CDOII/fencing recommendations.
If hay will be stored on site, a stack yard shall be constructed to keep wildlife out
ih" ,p"n space and adjacent to BLM land shall be closed to dog use during the winter months.
Dogishaialways be on a leash outside of the housefootprint. The number of dogs per residences
shiuld be limited to one. If outside kennels are to be used they should have a closed in roof to keep
mountain lions from predating on pets. During construclion of the residences, contractors should
not be allowed to have dogs on site,
Since cats are a major predator to small rodents and birds, cats should be kept indoors at all timcs.

The homeowner'gftould. install bear-proof dumpsters or trash bins.
Hunting shoulful,be prohibited, The adjacent BLM land is a popular hunting area The
homeowners shoYld be aware that it is a legal hunting area
Response: The Applicant is willing to comply with all of these recommendations except for Item It W"
beliive there would be a significant safety concern if hunting were to be allowed on the properly. The
proposed lots essentially border the central open space. As a result, discharging firearms in almost any
direction from the common open space could cause damage to one of the proposed residences or result in
injury. In addition, the common open space is intended to be used by residents of the Subdivision for
*alking, equestrian and other activities. Given the topography of the property and the layout of the
proposed subdivision, these activities are not compatible with hunting. The other DOW
recommendations have been incorporated into the Declaration of Protective Covenants.
D) The Applicant is encouraged to work with Steve Anthony, the County's Weed Management
Specialist, to develop a weed management plan that complies with the provisions of the adopted

CounSl's Weed Management Plan.
Response: Prior to 2002,the Laurence Ranch had not been worked for the previous several years
resuiting in areas on the property with significant infestation of common thistle and other noxious weeds.
This condition predates the current owner's purchase of the property. Since taking control of the property
Snowmass Land Company has taken measures to improve the condition of the property including making
arangements with a locai rancher to put the properly back into agricultural operation. This will help
p.rurnt further spread of noxious weeds on the ranch. In addition, a weed control expert has also been
contracted to begin the process of treating the existing noxious weeds. Attachment 15 is a letter from
Matt Johnson, o*n"r of Roaring Fork Vegetation Management Company, who has been retained to
implement a noxious weed control program. Mr. Johnson will be directed to work with Mr. Anthony to
develop a weed control plan for the property. Weed control will be an ongoing project at the Ranch and
the services of a weed control specialist will be paid for out of the Homeowner's Association dues as
needed.
E) The Applicant should take special caution to be sure to properly notify the mineral rights owners
and lisiees of any pubtic hearings concerning this project (pursuant to sections 4:20 and 1:30 of
the Garfteld County Subdivision Regulaions).
Response: Attachment 16 is a series of e-mails between Chris LaCroix, attorney for the Applicant, andTom
Shuneman, Title Manager for the Land Title Gaurantee Company. These documents confirm that there is no-
sovered mineral interest other than the right of a proprietor reserved in the Patent. Therefore, there is no need
to notiff anyone with respect to the mineral rights as required in the Public Notice provisions of the
Subdivision Regulations. Attachment 3 is the list of all property owners within 200 feet of the subject
Foperty. This list was obtained from a review of the records in the Garfield County Assessor's Offrce and
represents a complete list for public notice purposes.
F) The County requires thefollowing plat notes on theJinal plat and in protective covenants:
1. "Colorado is a "Right-lo-Farm" State pursuant to Cn ,S. 35-3-101' et seq. Landowners'
residents and visitors must be prepared to accept the activities, sights, sounds and smells of
Garfrcld County's agricultural operations as a normnl and necessary aspect of living in a

livestock on public roads, storage and disposal of manure, and the application by spraying or
otherwise of chemicalfertilizers, soil amendments, herbicides, and pesticides, any one or more
of which may naturally occur as a part of a legal and non-negligent agricultural operations."
2. "No open hearth solid-fuelfireplaces will be allowed anywhere within the subdivision. One (1)
new solid-fuel burning stove as detied by C.X.S. 25-7-401, et. seq., and the regulations
promulgated thereunder, will be allowed in any dwelling unit. All dwelling units will be
allowed an unrestricted number of natural gas burning stoves and appliances."
3. "All owners of land, whether ranch or residence, have obligations under State lan, and County
regalations with regard to the maintenance offences and inigation dilches, controlling weeds,

RE: The Ranch at Coulter Creek
Dear Mark:
This report presents the findings of the water supply investigations performed by
Zancanella and Associates, lnc. for the proposed 480 acre Ranch at Coulter Creek
Subdivision. Figure 1 shows the general location of the property and the approximate
locations of the Lot#24 Well, RCC Well #5 and RCC Well #7. lnformation contained in
this report covers estimated future domestic water uses for the 26 lots, the legal supply,
well pump test reports, and water quality.
Water Reouirements
Table 2, attached, is from an engineering report by Resource Engineering, lnc. dated
October 18,2002. lt presents the diversions and consumptive use for the proposed 26 lot
subdivision. The lots will be luxury homesites for homes up to SSOO square feet. Each
homesite has been assigned two EQRs. The ranch house has been assigned one EeR,
for a total of 53 EQRs. lt is assumed that each EQR will represent 3.5 people using 100
gallons of water per person per day. Ten livestock units, each consuming 1i gpd, aid an
equestrian barn, using 100 gpd, have been included in the water requirements table. The
water use calculation presumes that water will be diverted to irrigate up to 10,000 square
feet of lawn or other equivalent outside uses at each residence. The lawn irrigation and
other domestic uses are to be supplied by a community water system servingilt Zo tots.
Leqal Supplv
Table 2 shows the Ranch at Coulter Creek is expected to divert an average 34.754 AFannually, and consumptively use 14.254 AF. The peak water demand mtnth of Junewould require a continuous average diversion of 39.3 gpm to serue all twenty six lots.
Case No. 02CW108 has been Rled'in District 5 Water C5Lrt as an augmentation plan forthe new development. The Water Court case atlows for diversions of Ip to 1g0 gpm fromeach of 5 wells to be located in a well field on the propefi. The three wells identified
above are within the described well field. Because the newiiling would be a junior waterright and subject to calls, out-of-priority stream depletions are to-be augmented by dry-upcredits under the Ranch water rights, by releases from Laurence Pon-ds I - 4 anO iro,Consolidated Reservoir.
Phvsical Suoplv
Tfie Ranch at Coulter Creek Subdivision will be served by a community water system asdefined by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. A minimum of

three wells are to be used to supply the system. Three wells were constructed by Shelton
Drilling Corporation during the last quarter of 2A02. They are the Lot#24 Well and RCC
Wells #5 and #7. Copies of the well construction reports are attached. We have also
attached graphical representations of the construction details in Figures 24D,5D and 7D,
respectively. The table below lists the permit numbers and approximate locations of the
three wells. The wells were drilled as monitoring wells.

the monitoring well permits are attached. Fee well permit applications will be filed when
the augmentation plan, 02CW108, has been approved by Water Court.
Pump testswere performed on allthree wells by Samuelson Pump Company, The results
of the tests are summarized in the table below:
Data collected during the pump tests of the Lot24 Well, RCC Well #5 and RCC Well #7
have been tabulated in attached Tables 24T, 5T and 7T, respectively. Graphical
representations of the water level curves are provided in Figures 24W, 5W and 7W,
respectively. Wells RCC #5 and RCC #7 were pumped continuously at 40 gallons per
minute (gpm) for the length of the test. The Lot#24 Well test was begun at 30 gpm, but
was reduced to 25 gpm when it appeared that the well would probably not be able to
sustain the higher rate for the entire 24 hour test.
The water level in each well appeared to have stabilized by the end of the tests. At no
point in any of the tests did the water level in the wells approach their individual pump
intakes. Recovery data following each test are listed along with the pumping data in
Tables 24T, 5T and 7T. Recovery graphs, showing recovery as residual drawdown, are
presented in Figures 24R, 5R and 7R. All three wells appeared to recover normally:
The test results indicate that all three wells can be pumped for extended periods at their

respective test rates of 2s,40 and 40 gpm. These rates, when added together, yield a
totar flow rate of r-6igil, *nirn is w-ett above the peak month's continuous average
diversion of 3g.3 gpm. From tne pump test data. it cah be concruded that, with sufficient
storage, the 3 *61= should oe ani; to provide adequate water for the proposed
develoPment.
we believe that it is importantto the long term reliability of the wells to continue the historic
irrigation practice of importing targe qulntities of water into the geologic basin above the
wells. water is currently diverted from Mesa creek through the consolidated Reservoir
and the Eta Ditch to the ProPertY'

were still pending. Those lab results have now been received and are attached. The
results show that, as with all parameters tested for this and the other two proposed water
supply wells, all parameters that were tested were below the Maximum Contaminant Levels
as established by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment and the
EPA. The test for coliform bacteria indicated that the bacteria were absent from the
sample.
It appears from all of the water quality test results that water quality for the Lot #24 Well
and the RCC Wells #5 and #7 is good.
lf you have any questions, please calt our office at (g70) 94S-SZOO.
Very truly yours,
Zancanella and Associates, lnc.
Thomas A. Zancanella, P.E.

7. Guidelines for Sustainable ,S*een" Architecture
a. Energt Conservation Suggestions - The Ranch at Coulter Creek is
located in a high mountain, semi-arid are1 atan elevation of approximately 7,000 feet.
Temperatures are cold in the winter and cool during summer evinings. thlre.is a high
temperature variation between daytime and nighttime. Temperatures will range fronittre
40's F to 80's F in the srunmer and -10's F to 40's F in the winter. Heating iJrequired amajority of months during the year. Cooling needs can be met with uppropiiut" dlsign
assets and liabilities for this climate.
1.) Temperature is a liability when it's too cold for comfort. Heat loss and airinfiltration need to be controlled.
2.) Sun is an asset when it's too cold for comfort. A high percentage of
sunshine is available. Every opportunity should be used to collect and itore the
sun's energy for nighuime use.

3.) Wind is a liability when it's too cold for comfort. It is important to buffer
buildings from the wind, control wind with vegetation and site features, and limit
air infiltration.
4.) Day to night temperature swings are an asset. Storing heat from daytime
gains for nighuime use is important. Thermal masses are required for storage.
These same thermal masses can be used to store nighttime cold for cooliing dwing
the day in the summer time.
b. Building Orientationfor Sun and lVind - Based on the climatic
consideration given above it is important to orient building for solar gain, while designing
the overhangs for protection from potential summer overheating. It ii also double loik
entries; act as buffers to limit air exchanges and drafts when exierior doors are opened.
c. Building Insulation and Thermal Mass - It is important that buildings be
well insulated to retain internal comfort. Code requirements are a minimum and
additional insulated to retain intemal comfort. Code requirements are a minimum and
additional insulation is recommended and cost effectirre. Thermal mass is critical to the
thermal performanceof a building. It is required to absorb the daytime solar gain and
radiate the heat gain for nighttime warmth. Without adequate thermal rnur. ti. daytime
solar gain with overheat the space. Also, the space will bL colder in the evening,
requiring more heat form the mechanical system. Thermal mass lessens the intirnal
temperature swings; therefore, providing better human comfort.
d. Roof and Wall Construction- Exterior wall and roof construction should
be_wellinsulated, preferably above code requirements, and provide a barrier for airinfiltration. Exterior wall surfaces should be permeable to allow moisture in the wall to
escape. Interior surfaces should be less permeable allowing interior moisture that enters
the wall to escape through the exterior wall and not be drivin back into the interior or to
remain in the wall.
windows - Use the best quality window you can afford. windows can be
the largest source of heat loss. Therefore, windows with higher thermal insulting values
are the best. Conductivity of the window frame is also an important factor. The best
windows will have a rating with a low value. Do not use steel or aluminum windows
without a thermal break built into the frame. Metal frames can create condensation on
the interior under certain conditions.
E_nvironmentally sensitive Products - Indoor air quality is important to
human health. Products used for the construction and furnishing of u Uuitairj should
contain no or low VOC's No CFC's should be used in the **rf..t*ing of riaterials or
operation of mechanical equipment. If possible, avoid the use of HCFC;s that are beingphased out. Formaldehydes should be avoided in products, in the product manufacturiig
process, and as a binder or adhesive.
g. Energt Saving Products - Energy Star Rated appliances should be used

to save energy. Toilets should be 1.6-gallon low flush models. Low flow showerheads
should be used. Compact fluorescent lighting should be used where possible for energy
savings.
h. Recycling - A construction waste management plan should be instigated
during the construction of each building to recycle construction waste. Items to be
considered for recycling should include: land clearing debris, clean dimensional wood,
pallet wood, plywood, OSB particleboard, concrete masomy units, cardboard, paper,
metals, gypsum wall board, paint, glass, plastics, carpet and pad, beverages containers,
and batteries from construction tools.
r.,8. Requirements for Protecting Structures from\.Wildfire...trVildfire is a fact of
nature, and nothing can guarantee that persons or property withiil-thus.iibdivision will be free
from injury or damage due to wildfire. The requirements of this paragraph IV. 7 and paragraph
IV .3 above are intended to reduce the risk of damage or injury from wildfire from information
available as of the date hereof without representation or warranty of any kind. All structures shall
be designed and constructed in a manner to minimize the possibility of ignition from wildfire.
The following design criteria shall be required for construction in the Subdivision.
a. Construction SpeciJications.
l) Roofs: Roof construction and materials shall meet a fire resistance
classification of "Class C" (as defined in the Uniform Building Code) for its equivalent.
2) Vents: Under-eave vents shall be located near the roofline rather than near
the wall to prevent flames from entering the house through these openings. The vents
shall be screened with corrosion resistant, noncombustible wire mesh with the mesh not
to exceed, on a nominal basis, ll4 inch in size.
3) Glazed Openings: Dual pane or triple pane glazing or its equivalent is
recommended on all glazed openings.
4) Chimneys and Flues: Chimneys and flues which serve solid fuel
appliances shall be provided with an approved spark arrester.
b. Defensible Space.
Defensible space is defined as an area sunounding a structure where certain
modifications have been made and restrictions imposed to reduce or eliminate the
presence of flammable material. Minimum defensible space for the Subdivision is set
forth in paragraph IV.3 herein. The Colorado State Forest Service recommends
downslope fuel modification for a distance of one hundred feet or more for structures
located at the top of steep slopes. The following fuel modification procedures shall be
followed in the creation of a defensible space.

Large native trees, shrub groups and clumps of small trees within the defensible
space.should be thinned to provide 10 feet of separation between the vegetation
canoples.
New plantings should be placed to maintain 10 feet of separation of the vegetation
canopies at the mature growth of the plantings.
Grasses within the defensible space should be mowed to 4 inches or less.
All trees taller than 18 feet should have lower branches pruned to a height of 6
feet.
Shrubs and trees should be thinned along driveways to assure access by
emergency vehicles.
If not enclosed within a fire resistant structure, woodpiles should not be located
within 30 feet from any structures, and flammable vegetation should be cleared
for a distance of 10 feet around any woodpile.
Construction materials, leaves and flammable debris should be removed from the
defensible space.
Leaves and debris should be removed from roofs at least once a year. Branches
should be separated from chimneys by at least 10 feet. All liquid propane gas
tanks should be buried.
9. Preliminary Approvals. Lot Owners who anticipate constructing or modifring
strucfures or improvements on a Lot or excavating, tree cutting and cleaning or landscaping on a
Lot may submit preliminary sketches or plans thereof to the Architectural Committee for
informal and preliminary approval or disapproval. All preliminary sketches should be submitted
in at least three (3) sets and should contain sufficient general information on those matters
required to be in the complete Plans to allow the Architectural Committee to act intelligently in
giving an informal preliminary approval or disapproval. The Architectural Committee shall never
be committed or bound by any preliminary or informal approval or disapproval. The preliminary
approval process is offered as an accorlmodation only, and the Architectural Committee may set
fees for this service.
10. Architectural and Site Development Plans. The Architectural Committee shall
disapprove any Plans submitted to it that do not contain sufficient information for it to exercise
the judgment required of it by this Declaration.
11. Architectural Committee Not Liable. Neither the Architectural Committee nor
any member thereof shall be liable for damages to any person or entity submitting any Plans for
approval, or to any Owner or Owners of Lots, by reason of any action, failure to act, approval,
disapproval or failure to approve or disapprove with regard to such Plans. Neither the
Architectural Committee nor any member thereof shall have any liability or responsibility for
any representations made to any Owner or prospective Owner by any third parties. The decisions

proceedings, the costs and expenses for filing the notice or claim of lien, and all reasonable
attorneys' fees. The Owner shall also be required to pay to the Association any additional
assessments against the Lot during the period of foreclosure, and the Association shall be entitled

average annual production of native understory
vegetation is about 600 pounds p€r acr8.
lf the range condition deteiloratos, Wioming big
sagebrush, cheatgrass, and annual weeds increase in
abundance. Mechanical treatment is not practical
because of the very stony surface and the slope.
Suitable management practices include proper grazing
use and a planned grazing $ystem. The slope limits
accass by livestock. The limited accesslbility resulls in
overgrazing of the less sloping araas. Selective thinnir
of the pinyon and iuniper stands improvea the quality t
the understory for grazing and provides firewood, post
and Christmas trees.
The Tridell soil is suited to limited production of
pinyon pine and Utah juniper. The avorago annual
production is 5 cords psr acre. The average stocking
rate is 150 trees por acro. To ensure sustainad yields
and continuod us€, the kind ol wood production shouh
be considered bsfore the stands are thinned or cleare
Special care is needed to minimize eroslon when the
siands are thinned or cleared. Thinning the stands
generally promotes the growth of understory grasses
and young trees.
Only ttre less sloping areas of this unit are suited tt
homesite development. Tho main limitations are the
slope and the stoniness. Erosion is a hazard in the
steeper aroas. Only the part of the site that is used lo
construclion should be disturbed. fopsoil can be
stockpiled and usod to reclaim aroas disturbed during

Re: Ranch at Coulter Creek, Engineering Report for Preliminary Plan Application.
SE Job No. 21185.01
Dear Joe:
This letter comprises an engineering report in support of the Preliminary Plan Application to Garfield County for
the proposed Ranch at Coulter Creek Subdivision. The following site and design information is in accordance with
the supplemental information and engineering site design requirements pursuant to the Garfield County Land Use
Code.
Introduction
The site comprises approximately 478 acres on a mesa within the Coulter Creek drainage east of Spring Valley'
The site is generally comprised of irrigated agricultural lands and native sagebrush, cedar and pinion rangeland.
The site is accessed from County Road I15. The proposed subdivision will consist of 26 lots, each approximately
4-12 acres in size. The proposed residences will be served by a community onsite water system and individual
onsite wastewater systems designed pursuant to individual sewage disposal systems (ISDS) regulations.
Common Open Space
The 479-acre site will include approximately 303 acres of common area and open space, with 20.5 acres of road
rightof-way. The majority of the Common area will consist of land for conservation and remain as agricultural
fields. Other amenities will be within the common open space including a ranch compound, ranch maintenance
area, water treatment and distribution facilities, water supply wells and water storage ponds.
Access
Access to the subdivision will be from County Road 115 with 2 proposed access points with Cattle Creek Ridge
Road forming a loop between the Northwest and Northeast corners of the property. All lots will be accessed from
this road, other shorter access roads and extended driveways. Short access roads offCattle Creek Ridge Road that
access multiple lots will have cul-de-sacs compliant with fire vehicle access requirements. Four separate lots will
have access via dedicated easements or right-of-way.
Weter Rights and Supply
Information regarding water rights, water requirements, Water Quality, physical and legal supply is presented in a
report by Zancanella and Associates [nc., dated February 4,2003 and the revision dated February 18, 2003.
Potable Water Svstem
Potable Water will be supplied by three wells delineated on the plans. The following wells serve the proposed
community water system;Lot #24 Well, RCC Well #5 and RCC Well #7. The Peak production demand for the
wells will be 39

.3 gpm. The raw water will be pumped from each well via supply lines to the central water treatment facility. The
community water system treatment facilities are to be permitted and constructed pursuant to CDPIIE regulations.
The water will be chlorinated at a central treatment facility and distributed through the distribution mains to all the
lots. The distribution system serves as the supply line to the 150,000 gal storage tank that will provide volume for 2
days of in-house use plus required fire flow storage. The Ranch compound area will also have a service line to
supply water required by the barn and livestock facilities. The stored water from the large tank will provide gravity
distributionsystemtolloftheproposedlots(LotsllthroughlTand23through26). Lotsl-10and18-22will
have storage tanks and service lines installed to store water required for in-house use, fire flow and fire protection
sprinkler systems that will be installed in these residences. Treated water will be pumped through the distribution
system to the lots with individual storage tanks under the well pumps pressure. See Zancanella and Associates
report dated February 4,2003 and the revision dated February 18, 2003 for the results of well testing for suitability
of water for domestic consumption.
Done$tia$oneu@id'tsIgb per lol is basoel on 2 EQR's pu fbt [nd expected to be,.n average of,,fl00 tChnfrperttday. The water use also includes up to 10,000 square feet of lawn or other equivalent outsidJuses at each' residence. During seasons when the consumption is less than peak the water may be diverted to the storage ponds
located on site that have a total capacity of 47 .l Acre Feet (2,051,676 cu ft) of water.
Fire Protection
The central water system includes components for fire protection pursuant to ISO guidelines. The proposed
residences will be a maximum of two (2) stories in height and will be of Class V construction (shake/shingle roof
systems prohibited). All proposed lots are within five miles of the Carbondale and Rural Fire Protection District
(CRFPD) Missouri Heights Substation. AII dwellings wlll be e<iriippod with fire zuppression sprffier sybtems
meetingNational Fire Protection Standard l3R (NFPA 13). Wet or dry hydrants will be located within 1000 feet of
all buildings. The maximum water shuttle distance from a dwelling to a proposed wet hydrant (500-gpm/20psi
residuaU2hr duration) or the main storage tank is approximately 1500 to 2000 feet.
Best Management Practices and appropriate infrastructure need to be implemented in accordance with the Urban-
Wildland Interface Area Requirements to provide frre protection and prevention. These measures need to include
the maintenance of a designed defensible space.
Onsite Wastewater Systems (OWS)
We recommend that, at the time of application for building permit, each lot be required to have an engineered onsite
wastewater system plan, designed by a professional engineer registered in the State of Colorado. Basld on the
existing conditions at the site, the actual type, dimensions and design of each OWS will vary. Required setbacks
from on-site wells, irrigation ditch, dwelling, and property lines must be maintained. Each OWS will be designed
site specific based on individual geo-technical evaluations performed by a qualified geo-technical engineer. We
would recommend that each component of the OWS be placed on tle samelot as the residence but ortride of any
non-disturbance areas defined for the lot. We assume based on the lot size and previous land use that most of the
lots on the site are suitable for conventional systems and/or modified engineerei systems, however a few of the lots
may need advanced treatment components incorporated into their OWS design if Certain physical constraints are
encountered. The existing soils vary across the site therefore each lot will need a si

DESCRIPTION OF' PROPOSAL:
Development Proposal: The Applicant is proposing to subdivide approximately 479
acres of land into 26 lots.
The26 new lots will comprise of approximately 156 acres of the 479 acres of land that is
the subject of this application. The remainder of the Ranch will be corlmon open space
for the use of the lot owners. The common open space will continue to be ranched. The
Sketch Plan includes a "ranch compound amenity area" which consists of 8.2 acres. This
area is part of the common open space area but includes the existing ranch structures and
the landscaping for the main entry to the subdivision. On Page2 of the application, the
Applicant provided a "Unit and Acreage Breakdown" of the proposed subdivision.

Site Location: The subject property is located in the Missouri Heights area approximately
i111it6 northeast of Carbondale. The property is located to the north and west of County
Road 113. County Road 115 runs along the north side of the site.
Background: The Applicant provided a detailed history of the subject property beginning
on Fug. 1 of the appiication. The subject parcel is one of two parcels that have been
known as the Laurence Ranch (o'Ranch"). The North Parcel, which is undeveloped,
consists of approximately 1,300 acres and is located just east of the Consolidated
Reservoir. The South Parcel, which is the subject of this application, contains
approximately 479 acres. Until recently, the Ranch had been operated by Roger
La*.n.., who put the property up for auction in 2000, in part to satisff estate taxes due
as a result of the death of his father. After a deal with the highest bidder from the auction
fell through, the Aspen Valley Land Trust ("AVLT") purchased the South Parcel.
AVLT solicited proposals from land development companies and entered into an
agreement to sell the South Parcel to the Snowmass Land Company provided that they
would 1) develop the property under a cluster approach with a small number (22 -26) ot
residential lots and 2) place a conservation easement over the balance of the property.
The conservation easement has been executed and a copy can be seen in more detailed in
Attachment 3 of the application.
Site Description and Existing Conditions: The Ranch contains the existing homestead
which consists of one farmhouse, a barn, and a historic 1800's log house. There was an
additional ranch house, which was in poor condition and potentially dangerous, that was
removed in July of this year. There are four ponds on the subject property which are used
for irrigation.
The property has rolling terrain that includes a large knoll on the south end of the Ranch.
There is a steep cliff along the southwest edge of the properly, which forms a natural
boundary between the Ranch and BLM land. Vegetation on the Ranch is primarily field
grass interspersed with areas of sage and sparse scrub oak and pinion-juniper stands.
Building envelopes have been established for each site. The building envelopes
constitute approximately 50.6 acres or less than 1l percent of the total acreage on the site.
The Applicant indicated that all residential structures and landscaping will be confined
within the proposed building envelopes. The building envelopes have been designed to
comply with the minimum setback requirements for the A/R/RD zone district. The
building envelopes range from 4 acres to l1 acres in size.

The building envelopes for Lots I I through 16 have been located so that a 25-foot high
building located within the envelope should not be seen from Cattle Creek Road. The
Applicant asserted that this setback from the ridge was field verified and has been labeled
on the site plan as "View Shed Setback Line".
The following table is a summary of the information provided by the Applicant within the
application regarding the visibility of the proposed 26 lots from public rights-of-way.
Adjacent Land Uses: The vicinity map in Figure I of the application delineates the
surrounding land uses. The subject property abuts BLM land to the west and south. The
privately owned lands that abut the property on the north and east are currently utilized
for agricultural purposes.

Lots l, 2 &3 These lots contain the most visible building sites. These sites are
visible from County Roads 115 and l2l to the north. The building
envelope on Lot 3 has been located in a depression behind an
existing natural berm. The Applicant asserted that this should screen
all but the top 6 to 10 feet of a structure on the lot. Lot 2 building
envelope is located on an east-facing slope. The Applicant indicated
that the building envelope for Lot I is located behind an existing
stand of scrub oaks that will provide screening during the summer
months.
Lots4&5 These lots will be visible from County Road 115 as it tums to the
north. There is existing vegetation in this area which will help
screen the homes on these lots. The Applicant noted that
landscaping could also be added to provide further screening from
Countv Road 115.
Lots 6 through l0 These lots are located in the interior of the property and will not be
visible from off'site locations.
Lots l8 through 22:All these lots are located around the top of the knoll in the southern
portion of the property. Lots 18 & 19 are located in a draw and out
of view from most locations. Lots 20, 21, &22 are very visible. To
reduce the visibility of Lots 20,21 &22, the building envelopes are
setback from the edge of the slope, leaving room to install additional
landscaping, if necessary, to further screen the houses from the north
and/or east.
Lots 23 through 26 These lots are located in a draw and are well screened from most off-
site locations.

STAFF COMMENTS
Comprehensive Plan: The subject property is designated on the 'Proposed Land Use
Districts, Study Area 1' map in the Garfield County Comprehensive Plan as low-density
residential. The recommended density in this land use category is l0 acres or more per
dwelling unit. Using this standard, the property could accommodate approximately 48
dwelling units, twice the proposed number of units.
Zoning: The gross density of the project (not including the existing house which will be
used as ranch manager's unit) is approximately I unit per 18.4 acres, which is below that
allowed in the AiR/RD zone district. The A/R/RD zone district allows for 1 unit per 2
acres or approximately 239 units, giving the density of the property.
The A/R/RD zone district limits the height of all buildings to 25 feet. In addition, lot
coverage within the A/R/RD zone district is limited to 15 percent. The Applicant
indicated compliance with all applicable zoningrequirements as conditions of approval,
as well as at the time of building permit.
Subdivision: Pursuant to section l:21 of the Subdivision Regulations:
"The Subdivision Regulations [were] are designed and enactedfor the purpose of
promoting the health, safety and welfare of the present andfuture inhabitants of
Garfield County by encouraging orderly development, in accordance with established
County policies and plans and, infurtherance, of the general policy of balancing the
diversiJied needs of a changing population, including lessening congestion on streets
or roads, reducingwater in excessive amounts of roads, securing safetyfrom/ire,
/lood waters and other dangers, providing adequate light and air, classifying land
uses and the distribution of land development and utilization, protecting the tac base,
securing economy in governrnental expenditures, fostering agricultural and other
industries, and protecting both urban and non-urban development. "
The Applicant shall be aware of the applicable General Site Standards outlined in Section
9:00 of the Subdivision Regulations.
Water: Domestic water for the proposed lots is intended to be provided via a central
water system which will be designed by Sopris Engineering. According to the
engineering report prepared by Sopris Engineering:
"On-site water will be supplied by a well /ield located within the property bounds
at approximately the area shown on the sketch plan. The maximum /low from the

wells will be adequate to supply the 92,325 gallons/day necessary during the peak
consumption tnonth of June, The water will chlorinated at a central chlorination
facility and pumped into the on site piping system to deliver it to each lot. Each
lot will have a service line and a storage tank installed to store water requiredfor
fire protection sprinkler system that will be installed in each residence . .. . "
Since the proposed system will utilize an on-site well field as the source of raw water, the
Applicant provided documentation (Attachment 6 and 7 in the application) regarding
wells located on the subject property and within % mile of the property as proof of
adequate physical supply. An application for underground water rights with an
augmentation plan has been filed with Water Division 5 of the District Court. A copy of
the application can be seen in more detail in Attachment 8 of the application.
A letter from Kenneth W. Knox, of the Colorado Division of Water Resources, was
received regarding the proposed water supply through wells that will be augmented
(Exhibit A). Mr. Knox noted that "no analysis of the adequacy of these wells to supply
the proposed subdivision as provided." ln summary, Mr. Knox indicated that "due to the
lack of a water court augmentation plan, the State Engineer finds. ..that the proposed
water supply will cause material injury to decreed water rights and is inadequate." At
Preliminary Plan application, the Applicant shall show compliance with the requirements
of the State Engineers Office.
It is important to note that pursuant to CRS 30-28-136(1XhXI), the State BrgirlJlBfirlF m'
Division of Water Resources is required to render an opinion to the Board of County rli-- - --t "-- -- -- - - ----J rl
Commissioners as to whether or not the proposed subdivision will cause material injury iii
to decreed water rights. If the State Engineers renders an opinion indicated they could not
determine if there is an injury or not, the Board of County Commissioners may still
approve the subdivision. However, this action by the Board of County Commissioners
ultimately means they know more about water law than the State Engineer. Staff and the
Attorney's Office would strongly recommend, at Preliminary Plan, that the Board not
approve this or any subdivision until an opinion of no material injury has been
determined by the State Engineer.
The Applicant shall be aware that the Preliminary Plan application will require
compliance with Sections 4:91 and 9:50 of the Subdivision Regulations with respect to
central water systems. The central water system will be subject to approval by the
Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment's Technical Services Division.
Approval of the central water system plans and specifications will be in accordance with
the new Water system Capacity Planning Manual as authorized by State statues.

Wastewater: Individual Sewage Disposal Systems are proposed for each lot. According
to the Septic System Constraints Map contained in the Garfield County Comprehensive
Plan of 2000, no constraints relative to septic system functions are identified for the
subject property on this map.
According to the engineering report prepared by Sopris Engineering, the type, dimension
and design of the on-site wastewater systems (OWS) will vary based on specific
conditions at each building site. Most lots will be suitable for conventional systems
and/or modified engineered systems, though a few lots may require advanced treatment
components be incorporated in the design of the OWS if certain constraints are
encountered. A more detailed analysis of the soils and the design for the individual
system for each lot will be provided with the Building/ISDS permit applications.
The Applicant will need to comply with Section4:92 of the Subdivision Regulations at
Preliminary Plan application. The Applicant should also be aware of the standards for
Sanitary Sewage Disposal in Section 9:60 of the Subdivision Regulations.
Access: The proposed road system within the Subdivision includes a loop road that
utilizes two existing ranch road accessing onto County Road 115. The Applicant
indicated that the roads have been designed to comply with County road standards
identified in Section 9:3 of the Subdivision Regulations. The Applicant asserted that:
"based on the anticipated trip generation and assuming trffic will be distributed
in both directions on Cattle Creek Ridge Road [main internal loop rcadf, the
estimated trffic on this road will be roughly 156 ADT [average daily trips].
Given these assumptions, the proposed roads qualifi under the "Rural Access"
category in the County's Road Standards. The proposed roads have been
designed with I I -foot drive lanes and 2-foot shoulders either side of the drive
lanes, "
Essentially, the Applicant states that due to the proposed internal traffic pattern, the
intemal roadway will ultimately carry almost half of the trips generated and thus be
classified as such. However, the County regulations do not distinguish between multiple
exits for a development onto a public road system (i.e. County Road I l5). The propoied
development produces 248.82 trips per day (9.57 vehicles per day X 26 lots) as an entire
development, which would classifr the internal road (Cattle Creek Ridge Road) as
"Secondary Access" not "Rural Access". There are a couple differenc.i i, aarign
'standards between the two road classification which include shoulder width, croT, ,lope iand surface.'Ps

there are several spur roads with cul-de-sacs that provide access to residential lots. The
main road, Cattle Creek Ridge, will be chip-seal surface. The roads are designed with no
curb or gutter. The Applicant asserted that no segment of the main road exceeds l0
percent grade. The roads will be maintained by an established homeowner's association.
The Applicant asserted that due to the physical characteristics of the property and the a
conservation objectives of the project, cul-de-sacs are utilized in the iouO a.rign. Section
9:33 of the Subdivision Regulations outline the standards for cul-de-sacs. CuIde-sacs are
limited to 600 feet in length. However, the regulations allow the County to approval
longer cul-de-sacs for topographical reasons piovided that fire protection and emergency
egress and access is provided as a part ofthe longer design.
The Applicant noted that the proposed road plan for the Subdivision includes two cul-de-
sacs longer than 600 feet, One of these cul-de-sacs is referred to as Fisher Creek Lanewhich is located in the west end of the property and the other is called Saddle Drive andprovides access to the knoll at the south end of the property. However, it appears on the
site plan that Coulter Lane, which provides access to tots 1: mrougtr za, iia cul-de-sacwhich also exceeds 600 feet in length.
Fisher Creek Lane is roughly 925 feetin length and provides access for three lots (Lots 5,6 & 7). Access for Lot 8 utilizes a private driveway that extends roughly 980 feet b.yori
the end of the cul-de-sac. The Applicant asserted that Fisher Creek fane and the private
drive extension were designed to minimize the amount of irrigated land lost to roadconstruction and to minimize disturbance to steep slopes in the area on the west side ofLots 8 & 9.
Saddle Drive includes two cul-de-sacs that serve Lots 18, 20,21, & 22 anda private drive
10 L-9t t.e, Jne Applicant indicated that the area served by these cul-de-sacs is a targeknoll with few options in terms of access road alignments. The Applicant asserted thatthe road has been located in a draw that offers thJl"urt impactive route to the proposedlots' Due to the orientation of this draw, only portions of the road shall be visiile fromfew locations,

Eastern Access: The eastem access historically used to serve the Ranch has been
improved and widened without permits. These improvements to the driveway
constitute a change of use, therefore a new driveway permit is required. Some of
the soil fill will need to be replaced with gravel. The approach grade, sight
distance and width of this driveway meet current Road and Bridge standards.
Western Access: The western access point is on a near 90 degree comer and is in
a bad location with regard to sight distance. The minimum sight distance for a 35
mph road is 250 feet. The existing configuration of the road allows for 150 feet of
visibility to the east and 350 feet to the north. If the access is moved 80 feet to the
east, which is at the approximate apex of the comer, sight distance is increased in
both directions, resulting in about 400 feet visibility to the north and 800 feet to
the east. Mr. Thoe noted that the Road and Bridge Department would entertain
the idea of a24" fill on the County Road, centered on the driveway and tapering
to zero at the 125 linear feet in each direction. Such fill would reduce the-
excavation needed within the property, as well as improve the grade of the County
Road.
The Applicant shall be aware of the Street and Roadways standards in section 9:30 of the
Subdivision Regulations.
Pursuant to Section 4:94 of the Subdivision Regulations, a part of the County's Capital
Improvement Plan, the Board has established traffic study areas. The subjeci property
lies within Traffic Study Area I I of the Capital Improvements Plan, At the time of Final
Plat, the Applicant will be required to pay 50% of iheroad impact fees for the
subdivision. At the issuance of a building permit, other road impacts fess will be
collected. Appendix A of the Subdivision Regulations provides a Road Impact Fee
Calculation Work Sheet. In the event any fees increaselefore the time of final plat, the
increased fees shall be paid.
Soils: In Attachment 9 of the application, the Applicant provided a summary list of thel0 soil designations on the subject property and the soil interpretation tables. Exhibit Eof this memorandum provides a brief summary of these tO soit designations. It appears
that some of the soils present on the subject property are poorly suited for homesite
development, as well as the installation of conventional slptic systems. At preliminary
Plan, the Applicant shall address this issue through a geologic report compiled by a
registered professional engineer licensed by the slate of coloraao.

Lakes/Streams/Topography: There are no lakes or streams located on the subject
property. Coulter Creek is located to the east of the subject property. The Applicant
asserted that a lot of care had been taken in locating the proposed lots, roads and building
envelopes to accomplish a variety of objectives for the project. One objective was to
preserve as much of the inigated land as possible for agricultural use. Care was taken to
minimize the visibility of building sites from nearby roads and developed areas.
Radiation: The Applicant is unaware of any radiation on or near the subject property.
The Applicant shall note that pursuant to Section 4:60 of the Subdivision Regulations, a
radiation evaluation will be required as part of the Preliminary plat process.
Fire Protection: A portion of the property is located within the Carbondale and Rural Fire
Protection District and a portion is located outside of the District. The Applicant
submitted a petition tg expand the District boundaries to include the balance of the
property within the District. A copy of the petition has been included within the
application as Attachment 10.
The Applicant indicated that each of the proposed homes in the subdivision will be
equipped with a sprinkler system for fire suppression. Each lot will have a minimum
5,000 gallon water storage tank. This tank will provide storage for domestic water and
will also be fitted with a dry hydrant for fire fighting. The tanks and dry hydrants will be
designed to comply with the specifications required by the Carbondale and Rural Fire
Protection District.
The Applicant is considering installing a water storage tank on the property for Fire
District use when fighting structure or wildfires in the surrounding areas. In addition, a
site has been identified on the property for a repeater antenna to be used by the Fire
District to improve emergency radio communication in the region. The Applicant is still
working with the District on these issues.
.ii? L r ' " r!']
Itthrleash, Fire Chief for the District, provided the following comments (which may be
seen in more detail in Exhibit C):
1. 50oh of the property is not within the boundaries of the District. The Developer
has submitted an annexation petition to the Board of Directors of the District
seeking inclusion of the property into the District. To date, the Directors have not
acted on the petition.
2. The property is in a wildfire hazafi area and special measures may be required to
adequately mitigate these hazards.

has provided a list of approved industry guidelines, codes and standards which
should be used in developing the Wildfire Hazard Mitigation Plan.
The Fire Protection standards outlined in Section 9:70 of the Subdivision Regulations
will apply to the Preliminary Plan application.
Drainage: Drainage has b.een addressed in the engineering report provided by Sopris
Engineering in Attachment 5 of the application. The Applicant asserted that drainage for
the project will be designed in accordance with the criteria and standards included in
Section 9.4 of the Subdivision Regulations. According to the engineering report existing
drainage on site will remain substantially unchanged. Culverts will be installed in
locations where roadways cross the natural water courses. These culverts have been
delineated on the Sketch Plan.
Floodplain Issues: There are no floodplain issues on the subject property.
Wildlife: The Colorado Division of Wildlife ("CDOW') identified the property as winter
range for both Elk and Mule Deer and severe winter range for Elk. Figures 5 and 6
delineated the mapped wildlife habitat. The Applicant asserted that the proposed
subdivision has been designed to retain corridors in several locations throughout the
properly for animal movement. The landowners intend to establish a set of conservation
guidelines, which will be communicated to all property owners within the development
and will be administered by the homeowner's association. The Applicant provided an
outline of these guidelines as Attachment 1l in the application
The Applicant indicated that in order to allow animal movement through the property
several movement corridors have been established as part of the site design. One of these
corridors is located between the building envelopes on Lots 7 and 8 along the west side of
the property. The second corridor is located between the building envelopes on Lots 17
and 18. The third corridor is located to the south of Lots 23 through26. And last
corridor allows animals to move to and from Coulter Creek, which is located to the east
of the subj ect property.
Kelly Wood of the Colorado Department of Wildlife provided the following comments
(which may be seen in more detail in Exhibit D):
l. Fencing shall be kept to a minimum and follow the CDOW fencing
recommendations.
2. If hay will be stored on site, a stack yard shall be constructed to keep wildlife out.
3. The open space and adjacent to BLM land shall be closed to dog use during the
winter months. Dogs shall always be on a leash outside of the house footprint.

Subject: Mineral Rights at Laurence Ranch
John: Please forward this message to Tim Malloy-I don't have an email
address for him.
I reviewed the title commitment for Laurence Ranch to see if there were any
severed mineral rights. There is no clearly identified owner of a severed
mineral estate; however, there is an exception (that is very common) for theright_of a proprietor of a vien or lode to rlmove minerals, as reserved inthe US patent. In other words, when the US patent for the land was granted,
the us govenrment reserved the right to separately convey or lease [e righitomine the land (by the way, sLCbbtained insurance foritris exception)IIt is not clear from the title commitment whether the US ever actuaily
conveyed mineral rights or entered into a mineral lease for the property. Ifnot, then there would be no notice required in connection withihelard useapplication. I've got a call into tand iitle and I,m going to ask them to doa search to see if there are any mineral estate owners or lessees who areentitled to notice. I'll let you know what they say.
