RE: Pinyon Mesa Filing 1 Plat Amendment
Dear Mr. Smith:
Garfield County
BUILDING & PLANNING DEPARTMENT
The purpose of this letter is to notify you that the application submitted for a "Plat Amendment" (Pinyan Mesa
Filing 1) has been deemed technically incomplete. In order to continue the review of your application the
following items must be addressed:
1. The owner of each lot affected by the proposed Plat Amendment shall be a co-applicant. §6.9 Other
Reserved Development Rights states "Subject to compliance with any applicable County
requirements, Declarant reserves the right with respect to all or any Declarant-owned portion of
the Common Interest Community to (a) create Association properly; (b) create additional Lots,
subject to the maximum set forlh in the Pinyan Mesa P.U.D. Plan; (c) combine Lots; (d) converl Lots
into Association properly; (e) converl Association property into Lots; (f) create common elements
and/or limited common elements; (g) reconfigure Lots, streets, andior limited common elements; (h)
amend the Pinyan Mesa P.U.D. Plan. The requested Plat Amended is not limited to Declarant-owned
Common Interest property. Staff has reviewed this section with Garfield County Legal Staff and it has
been determined that each lot owner shall be a co-applicant;
2. An agreement for payment form shall be completed and signed by each applicant;
3. The Owner's Certification is incorrect. The correct certification can be found in Garfield County
Subdivision Regulations of 1984;
4. All Plat Notes from the original filing of Pinyan Mesa Filing 1 shall be depicted on the Amended Plat.
The note identifying the original filing is not adequate;
Please do not hesitate to contact this office should you have any questions.
Best regards,

I understand that you have previously spoken to John Elmore concerning the
attached application for an Amended Plat for Pinyon Mesa, Filing I. Pinyon Mesa
Development, Inc. has received requests to construct buildings on the site that, while
compliant with setbacks and lot coverage, would extend past the boundaries of the
approved building envelopes depicted on the Final Plat. The goal of this amended plat is
to enlarge the building envelopes for those lots (6-17, 20-36 and 43-44) where this
problem is anticipated. The new building envelopes still comply with the approved
setbacks, and the lots will be subject to the overall approved lot coverage requirements.
There are no other changes proposed to the plat whatsoever, and this Amended Plat will
otherwise be bound by all of the requirements of the approved Final Plat. There is no
increase in the number of lots or dwelling units, nor are there any relocations or additions
of new roads. Accordingly, we would request that this matter be placed on the consent
calendar, as per Section 6:00 of the subdivision regulations, and as specifically laid out in
Section LA. I of the Procedural Requirements found in the amended plat application
packet.
As called out on the certificates on the plat, some of the affected lots are still
owned by Pinyon Mesa Development, Inc., and some have been sold to third parties. The
Homeowner's Association is still under declarant control, and the CC&Rs specifically
grant the declarant the power to act as attorney-in-fact for the purpose of amending or
correcting the plat. Per Section 2.18 of the CC&Rs, the declarant is Pinyon Mesa
