They were produced later in the meeting. Mr. Mannino reviewed the history of the project for subdivision of 201.6 acres into 53 single family lots, located along State Highway 82 and County Road 114; the area known as Spring.:Valley. He read the recommendations and concerns of the planning staff. Terry Howard, Garfield County Sanitarian, addressed the Planning Commission regarding his recommendation to have all lots within the subdivision #2 served by the Spring Valley Sanitation District. He stated that very few of the proposed septic systems could be standard in the area for Los Amigos. Most would have to be engineered and even then it would be difficult. Also, part of the proposed subdivision #2 is within the Spring Valley Sanitation system. John Blair, of the Colorado Department of Health, stated that a conventional system will not work in the Los Amigos PUD. Every system must be engineered, if a tie-in with the Spring Valley Sanitation District is not possible. Walter Brown, representing the Los Amigos PUD, addressed the concerns of the planning staff. He stated that the boundary dispute between the Kindalls and the Muhrs was being resolved and illustrated what property was being exchanged between the parties. John Stanford and Dean Gordon gave their presentations. Dean Gordon said that the sewage plan proposed is divided into 2 parts. For the gravity fed portion within the limits of the sanitation district of the property, there will be central sewage to be served by the district. The portion outside the district and also within the district but not able to get in by gravity would be served by individual systems. He gave a presentation on the proposals' for the proposed septic systems. Greg Hoskins, a water attorney, addressed the Planning Commission on why evapotranspir- ation septic systems were needed. Mr. Stranger asked if the situation concerning water on the initial Filing #2 was such that the State Division of Water Resources didn't require a plan of augmentation since they had water rights. Mr. Hoskins replied that this was true. Bill Bowden, of Colorado Mountain College, wanted to make sure that the sewage supply commitment previously granted to CMC by spring Valley Sanitation District for an additional 48 units would be protected. He didn't want the Los Amigos PUD to take the sewage treat- ment committed to CMC and the first filing of Los Amigos. Dick Martin stated that he felt that the agreement for the 48 additional units for CMC should be honored. Mr. Hoskins said that there is a contract that Mr. Bowden should have a copy of stating that Los Amigos has agreed to expand the system should the water for the additional 48 units for CMC be used by Los Amigos. Bob Emerson, an attorney for Foster Petrolium, asked if this subdivision of Los Amigos is in the Springs Valley District boundary or do they have to contract into the system. Dean Gordon thought they were in the boundary of the district. Dale McPherson was concerned as to how the Planning Commission could possibly enforce the Los Amigos PUD to expand the Spring Valley Sanitation District should they use the capacity available and waiting for CMC to build their additional units. Mr. Hoskins reiterated that it was all in the contract. Earl Rhodes stated that contractual obiligation is binding. Barbara Lorah asked John Blair how well evapotranspiration systems work. Mr. Blair said that the systems work as well as the people who design them and went on to explain the system. Allan Bowles was appointed to vote. Bill Bowden requested that the college be in on any negotiations involved between the Los Amigos PUD and the Planning Department. Barbara Lorah moved to recommend approval to the Board of County Commissioners of the Los Amigos PUD Filing #2 with the following conditions: icant and approved bythe state 1. That a plan for augmentation be developed by the app_ pP rove Division of Water Resources prior to Filing #3 of Subdivision #2 final plat; 2.

The applicant provide that, on final plat, a building envelope with a suitable access shown on the plat and a plat note be included stating that a geotechnical report is to be disclosed by the developer on each lot prior to closing. 4. The entire subdivision (Subdivisions #2, Filings 1, 2, & 3) be served by the Spring Valley Sanitation District; 5. That the applicant exhibit to the satisfaction of the Board of 'County Commissioners that the district has legal and physical ability to treat the effluent of the additional 48 units to be built in Filing #1.
