The property is 67.4 acres in size and has been owned by the Johnsons for approximately 20 years. This application is being submitted concurrently with another Land-use Application for a Lodging Facility. The Lodging Facility land-use application will also include a request for 10 Creative Spaces, which are proposed to be leased out to artists and other appropriate professionals. Please note: both applications will have a description and mapping of the Overall Activities for this property – essentially a Concept Plan or a Master Plan for the property’s future. The applications will include some common technical documents and analyses. However, an analysis of land-use issues and approval criteria (Section 4 of both applications) will be different for each of these applications so that they can be processed independently if necessary. This approach was suggested by the Department of Community Development for ease of processing and in order to allow the owner to receive an independent review for one application in case some development/technical issues require more analysis arise in the companion application. We are submitting all application materials identified in Section 5-401 and Table 5-401 of the Garfield County Land Use and Development Code (LUDC) and noted in the Preapplication conference. A waiver submittal request per Section 4- 202 (Waiver of Standards), and Section 4-118 (Waiver of Submission 2 Requirements) is included for certain items and noted at the end of this section.

This parcel has been used in an agricultural manner by the family since the late 1990’s. Previously, the parcel was owned by Sandra Smith. The original Smith property was approximately 120 acres in size. The Parcel received an Approval for a Subdivision Exemption in 1989, with an Amendment to that approval in 1991. That split was into two parcels – Parcel A and Parcel B. Parcel B - 18.14 acres in size was sold off separately. The Johnsons purchased Parcel A in 1999. 35.1 acres was carved out in 2015 and acquired by another party. The Exemption is the only land-use approval that we are aware of and which was mentioned in the Title Commitment from 1999. Ms. Smith did file a Water Augmentation plan in 1981 which could accommodate a seven-lot residential subdivision. That Augmentation Plan provided for up to 7 wells for domestic use. Three wells exist on the original 120-acre property. One well was transferred to another owner when the 35-acre parcel was transferred. Two wells exist on the properties currently owned by the Johnsons. The wells serve a barn/horse arena and residential units. The Johnsons applied for a Land Use Change Permit in 2017 for a Community Meeting Facility, Guest lodging and utilization of some “Creative Spaces”. The Creative Spaces were proposed to be located in the barn/arena. The administrative portion of that application, the Community Meeting Facility, was called up for a public hearing in front of the Board of County Commissioners. Final action was not taken due to the fact that there were some land-use violations involved with the property. The application was put on hold in order to deal with the land-use violations. The Hearing in front of the BOCC was set for the July 17, 2017 Commissioner Agenda. Since that time, the Johnsons have taken steps to come into compliance with all zoning requirements of the counties Rural “R” Zone District. They are in the final steps of working through these matters with the staff of the Community Development Department. In the meantime, the Johnsons have made a number of steps in order to refine their land-use application for the Meeting Facility, Lodging and use of Creative Spaces. Please consider this a new land use application. Steps that have been taken since the Johnsons previously appeared before the BOCC on July 17th 2017 are: 4 • Removed the Safari Tent which was used for temporary lodging • Eliminated the residential use in the yurt; and taken out a building permit to use the yurt for storage • Abandoned the agricultural employee use in the “cabin” • Ceased to lease out any Creative Space Units and removed electrical and other upgrades made without a building permit. Inspection by State Electrical Inspector. • Undertaken a planning effort to refine their Meeting Facility and lodging concept • Had a qualified professional inspect the existing OWTS at the barn/arena • Improved existing OWTS per recommendations • Undertaken some long-term water system planning undertaken by Resource Engineering, Inc. • Applied for a Substitute Water Supply Plan. • Eliminated all use with the RV/trailer • Eliminated use on white travel trailer and sold it • Had site visits by County Road and Bridge and the Carbondale and Rural Fire Protection District to look at access, fire protection and emergency planning issues. The Johnsons have used the property for ranching and farming purposes since the late 1990s. This includes a barn/arena approximately 23,600 ft.² in size. 14,500 ft.² is dedicated to a horse arena. The Johnsons have boarded horses for over 20 years and founded and started the therapeutic riding facility called WINDWALKERS at this location. They have held numerous horse shows and riding clinics over the years and fundraisers for multiple nonprofits including the Carbondale Fire Department. Other agricultural facilities on-site include greenhouse and hoop houses for young farmers to use to grow local food and multiple ranch animals for breeding and meat production including cattle, Large Black Heritage Breed Pigs, Alpacas, and laying chickens and meat birds. The goal of the various land use application elements is: Utilize the location of the ranch related to the Roaring Fork Valley and Interstate 70 to foster an income source from Agri-Tourism. Intentions are to: 1) Create a model agri-tourism farm in Garfield county to provide a diverse, long-term, year round income source for the farm. Hopefully this will protect the farms long-term viability and financial sustainability of the operation. 5 2) subsidize the agricultural business and increase visitors and rural tourisim while saving and protecting ranching lands and maintaining rural sense of property. The Plan is to include holding small Events/Meetings, celebrations and related group activities; conduct agriculture related workshops focusing on ranching/farm production and resource sustainability; enhance the production of farm and ranch related products for wholesale and retail purposes; leasing out up to 10 “Creative Spaces” approximate 120 ft.² in size to people in arts, professionals, and agriculture related creative enterprises”. 3) Develop the agri-tourism branch of the family business to fit into the rural residential density and the agricultural related land uses in the Missouri Heights area. 4) Eliminate any previously identified land-use violations. 5) Protect ranching property from being subdivided and reduced in quality and use and maintaining rural sense of property for all to enjoy.

The property is characterized with a slightly rolling topography with the central area running north-south lowest in elevation (practically speaking -bowl shaped). The property generally slopes towards the north. Topography rises slightly to the east as well as the West and Northwest portions of the ranch. The property is accessed 6 directly off of CR 103 by a dirt and gravel private drive approximately 1/2 mile to the horse barn/arena. The barn/arena is currently the central focus of the property from a visual perspective. Remaining wooded areas, especially on the eastern flank of the property are characterized by Pinyon/Juniper woodland. There are a number of improvements and/or activities on the property. They include: • an approximate 25,600 ft.² barn/indoor horse riding arena (the active riding arena is close to 16,000 sf in size. • 8 stalls in barn actively boarding horses • one duplex residence • one single-family residence • a cabin, presently used for storage • four greenhouses, two on the southern portion of the property and two in the northwest quadrant • various parking and circulation areas • paddocks intended for raising pigs • corrals and associated areas for alpacas • hay fields and grazing areas. • Horse boarding & training arena • Cattle are raised on the ranch • other improvements include a well and OWTS for the barn/arena and residential areas The property has extensive water rights and an existing augmentation plan which allowed development of up to seven wells for what was the original Smith Property. These wells were mostly augmented for residential use. One well with a production rate of 30 gallons per minute exists on site, and the other well is rated at 15 gallons per minute. The property also owns shares in the Park Ditch. An existing conditions map/survey is attached. DEVELOPMENT OVERVIEW Below is an overview which briefly summarizes all the uses proposed for the property as a whole and encompassing both land-use applications. The purpose of this overview is so that staff, each commission/board or review agency is aware of the entire scope of development for the property.

The primary goal is to diversify the farm to create year-round revenue streams to subsidize the agricultural business and activities of the farm. This will ensure long-term success, sustainability, and viability of the farm and agricultural activities of the property and enable to make long-term improvements and secure for future generation and opportunity for farmers. The intention is also to have the property become a Community Asset; meet County Development Standards; and meet the intent of the County Comprehensive Plan in an environmentally responsible manner while preserving the natural amenities of the property.

COMPLIANCE WITH COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND ZONING Proposed development plans are in compliance with the Garfield County Comprehensive Plan 2030. Residential Low (RL) is designated for the property 11 in the Comprehensive Plan A graphical description of that designation is shown below: There are number of relevant sections contained in the Comprehensive Plan for the particular property and particular Development Plan. These include policies, strategies and actions, and issues. Some of these were noted in the previous Land-use Application and the associated Staff Report. Those and additional ones are shown below. Section 4, Economics, Employment and Tourism Policy # 6: The County recognizes that the tourism industry is an important part of the regional economy and the County recognizes that the tourism industry is enhanced by 1) open space and scenic vistas 2) public trails and other recreational opportunities 3) public access to public lands 4) a healthy environment and habitats for hunting and fishing 5) Greenbelt and open area between communities 6) clean air and water 7) local foods and local produce. Strategies and Actions #5: Where appropriate, encourage diverse tourism related development in order to sustain it as an economic and employment base in Garfield County. 12 Strategy and Actions #6: Ensure that tourism development is compatible with adjacent land uses and preserve the natural environment of the County. Strategies and Actions #7: encourage commercial/tourism development in areas where existing infrastructure (water/wastewater facilities) are currently available and where affordable housing is convenient. Section 6, agriculture Issue #4: The rollover of agricultural land into more intense uses is accelerating in the County. Issue #9: For many owners of small to intermediate acreages, their agricultural income is subsidized by other sources. Issue #10: As the rural areas of the county continue to develop, the need to ensure compatibility between these uses and active agricultural lands will intensify. Issue #13: With national disruptions in the food supply, costs of transportation, and desire to preserve agricultural lands, there is a growing awareness of the benefits of having a local food supply. Goal #1: Promote the continuation and expansion of agricultural uses. Goal # 2: Preserve a significant rural character in the county. COMPLIANCE WITH ZONING DISTRICT Existing uses presently comply and any future use or development as proposed on the property will comply with all zone district criteria of the Rural “R” Zone District, including all dimensional requirements enumerated in Table 3 – 201 of the LUDC. Discussion Given the large size of the property, setbacks and lot coverage do not come into play related to any existing or proposed development. Existing buildings or 13 proposed structures easily meet “R” Zone District criteria. Please see attached site plan. III. MISCELLANEOUS INFORMATION SUMMARY Roads. Access to the Cedar Ridge Ranch is by a private drive which connects to County Road 103 (Crystal Springs Road). This private drive has a dirt and gravel surface and ranges in width from 19.5 ft to 20 ft. In width for the first 200-foot segment off of the County Road to the narrowest portion which is approximately 15 foot in width. We have reviewed the access with the County Road and Bridge Foreman and the Carbondale Fire District Fire Marshall. More information is provided in the Technical Documents section of the application. Proposed Utilities/Infrastructure. The property is currently served by electricity, water (two existing wells), irrigation water from the Park Ditch, and OWTS systems for the barn/arena and the residential uses. The property is also served by propane. Natural gas will not be extended to the site. The OWTS was inspected in December 2017. A report from CBO Inc. is included in the technical documents section. The Johnsons have submitted an application for a Substitute Water Supply Plan related to their existing water augmentation. Comments from Resource Engineering are included in Section 3. Constraints to Development Plan. There are no significant constraints to development. Development And environmental constraints are discussed in a memo from the Project Planner in Section 3. A number of comments were transmitted to County Staff with the previous Land Use Change Permit application in 2017. These are also addressed in the Project Planner’s memo. Waivers. Submittal Waivers. There is a request for waivers from formal submittal of three items contained in Section 4-203 of the County LUCD. They are: E. Grading and Drainage Plan F Landscaping Plan 14 L. Traffic Analysis performed by a professional engineer. Waiver of Standards. There was one request for Waiver of Standards per Section 4-118. That code section is: Table 7-701 access and Roadway Design Justification for the Waivers We will briefly discuss the rationale for the waiver requests. Following a general justification , we statement, we will respond to the criteria outlined in Section4- 202 C for submittal waivers. Reasons for the waiver requests are: Grading and Drainage Plan. There will be minimal grading associated with the development of any aspects of the Cedar Ridge Community event, Lodging or Creative Spaces. No new structures are planned to be built at this time. Some areas for parking may be smoothed out and graded, a few new parking places created, area leveled out for future foundations/platforms for tents and a minor extension of a drive to access a few tents. Drainage for the property should not be affected. Landscape Plan. No new landscaping is being proposed at this time and no landscaping is intended to be removed. Two or three pinion trees may be trimmed or removed that suggestion of the Fire District in order to improve sight distance for the access driveway. Traffic Analysis. We are estimating increased traffic to the site as part of the Planners Memo, but this was not done by a professional engineer at this time. Uses seem straightforward and staff, County agencies and Board members are capable of analyzing this issue. Table 7-701 Access/Roadway Design. Access will continue to be by a private driveway and not a dedicated right-of-way. Driveway width generally ranges from 15 feet in width to 19.5 feet. The Fire District has previously stated that access driveway is workable from an emergency services standpoint with some minor 15 adjustments such as improving site distances in selected areas, constructing a few turnouts as necessary for use during an emergency. Full cross-section of a semi-primitive road would require 8 foot travel lane, 2 foot shoulder and 4 foot ditch. Cross-section assuming ditch on both sides is 28 feet. This appears excessive for an Agri-tourism and Event type use that has variable trip generation over time and is designed to exist in a rural setting. The applicant is of the opinion that the criteria for waiving submittal criteria (for the Landscape Plan, Grading and Drainage plan and Traffic Analysis via Section 4-202.C of the County Land Use Code has have been met. Below is a point-by- point response to the review criteria (Note: responses are in italics). C. Review Criteria. A waiver request shall be considered based on the following criteria: 1. The Applicant shows good cause for the requested waiver; Response: A minimum amount of new development is occurring on site, so project team feels that Landscape plan and Grading Plans are not necessary. We feel that a full on Traffic Analysis may not be necessary given previous comments from the Carbondale Fire Marshall and County Road and Bridge Foreman. 2. The project size, complexity, anticipated impacts, or other factors support a waiver; Response: Not much physical development is taking place on the site. The Project Team feels that they have taken care of future water planning needs, have a solid plan in place for present and future wastewater and have a plan in place to minimize impacts to neighboring properties. Finally, we are excited that an agricultural owner intends to move forward with a business plan to hopefully keep local ranching and farming in place for the foreseeable future. 3. The waiver does not compromise a proper and complete review; and Response: An adequate review can be undertaken via the Administrative Review and Limited Impact review processes. County Review Agencies and the public of already identified their issues with a previous application. 16 4. The information is not material to describing the proposal or demonstrating compliance with approval criteria. Response: Basic development background information has been examined and provided. See above. Utilities available and no County road extension needed. In addition, the owner commits to the following as needed: • Finalizing an Augmentation Plan once a Substitute Water Supply plan has been approved. • Has a proposal in place to improve wastewater services to camping sites in the short-term and to replace the barn OWTS as necessary or in Phase 3 of the Development Plan. • Has safe access for the public to visit the property. • Have addressed or mitigated potential or identified impacts.

The plan has both well water rights and irrigation water rights. The well water rights are subject to a plan filed in water court in 1981, Case No. 81 CW497, filed by Sandra Smith. Final decree was issued in December 1984. This included conditional underground water rights for 7 wells located on the property. Three of these wells have been dug, though one of these wells was transferred with the 35-acre property in 2015. The Plan utilizes Basalt Water Conservancy District replacement water. Well Permit No. 51460-F was permitted for 30 gallons per minute. Its uses include domestic use, 2000 ft.² of home garden/lawn, single- family dwelling and watering of domestic animals including up to 20 horses. There is also a well which serves the Johnsons present housing unit and a duplex. The Johnsons also own 7.5 shares in the Park Ditch and Reservoir Company. A Substitute Water Supply Plan is being filed on behalf of the Johnsons by Dufford, Waldeck, Milburn and Krohn. The technical analysis for this document was compiled by Resource Engineering, Inc. They are providing a background letter as part of this land use application which includes calculations regarding water needed for each of the proposed uses for Event/Meetings, the Lodging Facilities and the 10 Creative Spaces. It is our understanding that the existing well will be able to provide water for these activities. If not, the Johnsons have the option of obtaining one of any additional, existing 4 well permits from the State Engineer. WASTE WATER The On-site Wastewater Treatment System (OWTS) that serves the Barn/Arena area was inspected by CBO Inc. on December 29, 2017. Their report is included 01-22-18-1.mem Page 2 in Section 3 - Technical Documents section. The permit was obtained for the ISDS in 1981. This system was designed for a 4-bedroom residence, which generally can accommodate 600 G PD. The report goes on to analyze whether the existing OWTS can adequately service the Creative Space uses and perhaps some of the moderate sized workshops/farm to table functions etc. Initial findings are that 10 Creative Space Units and a function/work shop/event hosting up to 20 people can be accommodated by the existing OWTS on the same day. The Event Plan for the property provides that any cooking/meal preparation as well as dish/utensil cleaning would be catered and occur off-site. Estimated usage would be 350 GPD (10 Creative Spaces and then the event/meeting attended by a maximum of 20 people). Usage at the Event/Arena beyond the specified number of participants would be accommodated by porta potty’s. The Johnsons had a previous arrangement with Universal to provide such services. Cut sheet showing a typical unit with a hand sanitizing station is attached. The various lodging areas as shown on the Annotated Site Plan will initially utilize porta potty’s/combined wash station. Domestic water for these areas will be provided by the existing water system, but utilizing 5-gallon, commercial grade dispensing machines. For Phase 3, the commercial porta potty’s at the Cabin and Yurt areas will be replaced by composting toilets or other device approved by County Permit. Final details to be determined prior to permit for those facilities. The goal is to be resource efficient and utilize as little domestic water as possible. We are also in the process of investigating designs that could utilize graywater systems in these locations. We will contact the County immediately if we find a suitable alternative designed by a qualified professional (food or toilet wastes will not be draining these areas). Vehicular Access Intersection of access driveway with County Road Access to the property is from County Road 103. There is a 0.5 mile Private Drive which leads from the County Road to the main development feature on the property – the Barn/Arena. This application will meet all requirements outlined by County Road and Bridge outlined in an email dated May 17, 2017. the Project Planner and owners met 01-22-18-1.mem Page 3 County Road Foreman Mike Prehm on site on January 8. We discussed all aspects on the memo, including the County Staff proposed 90° intersection. This includes the following: • slight realignment of the access driveway to come into CR 103 at a cap 90° angle. • Installation of a County Approved stop sign at the access driveway/County Road intersection. • Installation of a Concrete or asphalt apron. Applicant agrees to comply with these items which will include application for a driveway access permit with County Road and Bridge review. Access Driveway Geometry The Event/Meeting facility will have access with the aforementioned 0.5 mile driveway. Please note this is a private drive and will not be a dedicated right-of- way to be maintained by the County. We measured the width at 13 separate points along the access driveway. The with ranged from 19.5 and 20 foot in width in areas nearest the intersection with Road 103 to a narrow point approximately 15 feet in width about 1000 feet from the County Road intersection. After that point it widens again and ranges from 15 feet in width to about 19.5 feet in width. There are no easily identified shoulders and there is a borrow ditch/drainage ditch only along short portions of the driveway. Road surface is dirt and gravel. It is privately maintained by the Johnsons. One or two other neighbors who use the drive for access also contribute to maintenance. The driveway surface roles gently with the topography. Sight distance is adequate but could be improved with the removal of one or two trees which have been identified in discussions with the Fire District. A few turnouts to assist with circulation during emergency events have also been discussed. General inspection and travel on the roadway indicate that the maximum grade is less than 12%. Driveway classification Classification for the driveway access should be characterized as “semi-primitive” according to Table 7 - 107 of the County Roadway Standards. We are providing a rough estimate of the number daily trips generated by the proposed use with given two options. Option 1 assumes and Event/Meeting attended by 50 people during a weekend day when the Creative Spaces will not be occupied. Option 2 01-22-18-1.mem Page 4 provides data for a weekend day when all 10 Creative Spaces are occupied together with a function/workshop attended by 20 people. Assumptions are provided below each chart. Option 1. Weekend Day. Event with 50 people. No creative spaces Activity # attendees Per/vehicle # vehicles Ave # trips Total trips Creative Spaces 0 0 0 0 0 Event 50 2 25 2 50 Staff 10 1 10 2 20 Lodging (7 units) 14 2 7 4 28 Total trips 98 Notes: • Event Attendees.

Fully occupied. Half of units make two round trips per day, half make one round-trip per day. • Event Attendees. Two people per car. One round-trip per vehicle. 01-22-18-1.mem Page 5 • Lodging. Assumes 4 units occupied, two people each. Two round trips per day. Option 1 generates 98 total trips. Please note that the Creative Space leases do not provide for weekend use. This helps limit impact to County Road 103 and the private drive. Option 2 generates a total of 76 trips. We feel both these options have conservative trip estimates and number of people per vehicle. I have seen other traffic studies for “events” which assume three people per vehicle. Therefore we are being conservative. Conclusion. The two scenarios each have trip generation estimates less than 100 total trips. This qualifies as a semi-primitive roadway. The present driveway meets standards including type of surface, slope (less than 12%) and most of the parameters. While this is generally satisfactory, the roadway in most cases is lacking 2 foot shoulders and borrow ditch(s). We request that the County accept the present road geometry and location with the applicant working with the Fire Marshall to make adjustments to approve sight distance, such as pullouts and tree trimming/removal. Emergency access/Driveway The Project planner met with the Fire Marshall for the Carbondale and Rural Protection Fire district (CR&FPD) on December 22. We examined the approach of CR 103 with the driveway for Cedar Ridge Ranch, road geometry, slope all along the 0.5 mile drive to the Barn/Arena – the main site for all activities subject to the Land Use Change Permit. Information on Driveway was noted previously. The Fire Marshall’s initial indication is that the access is safe from an emergency perspective including Fire Protection. Mr. Gavette said he would prefer to wait to make all official comments during the Review Agency process itself. It is our understanding that minor modifications may be suggested to enhance safety. Wildlife The property is noted as lying within Mule Deer Winter Range and is classified as Severe Winter Range and a Winter Concentration area for Elk. The Johnson Property and surrounding areas have been used for ranching and residential purposes for the last 100 years. The applicant will comply with all Best Management Practices outlined by the Colorado Parks and Wildlife Department including conditions related to outlined in the CPW memo dated May 24, 2017. 01-22-18-1.mem Page 6 Fire Protection The subject property is noted as being in a Low Wildfire Hazard area. The majority of the 67 acres is in hay fields and meadows and has been cleared for ranching and agricultural purposes. There are vegetated areas of pinion and juniper along the higher portions of the site along the eastern and western property boundaries. The applicant will comply with all directives of the Carbondale Fire District. It is assumed that in the case of wildfire, the agricultural pond in the vicinity of the pumphouse which is located about two thirds of the way from the CR 103 Road access will be utilized as a water source to fight any fire. Another quickly available water sources in the area is the water supply/hydrant system in Callicotte ranch. Please note that the horse riding arena has a water sprinkling system. While the primary purpose is for dust control, this could help in case of a structure fire. Natural Hazards No significant natural hazards have been identified. The area is in an area rated as low wildfire hazard. The property subject to the development plan is not considered to be subject to high groundwater, floodplain, alluvial fans, snow slide, avalanche hazard areas etc. A separate Geologic Hazard analysis has not been undertaken at this time due to the fact that little additional physical development is proposed and the fact that the property has been subject to agricultural and residential uses for the past 100 years. 01-22-18-1.mem Page 7 Miscellaneous I am providing a separate memo which addresses each County Referral Agency comments from the previous land-use application made for Cedar Ridge Ranch. That memo addresses each comment made by the particular agency/department. We had originally included this as an appendix to this memo but the comments appear repetitious at the end of this memo. We feel it is better in a stand-alone document. Mark Chain January 23, 2018 811 Garfield Avenue Carbondale, CO 81623 RE: Cedar Ridge Farm Project – Water Supply Report Dear Mark: This letter presents the water supply plan for the proposed new uses at the Cedar Ridge Farm located near Carbondale, Colorado (see Figure 1). The property is currently served by two existing wells pursuant to a water court decreed plan for augmentation. The new uses will require a water court filing for a change of use of existing ground water rights and an amended plan for augmentation. While the water court case is pending, Cedar Ridge Ranch will obtain and operate under a Substitute Water Supply Plan (SWSP) pursuant to C.R.S. 37-92-308(4). A SWSP follows the structure of the augmentation plan outlined in the water court application and is approved by the State Engineer (with appropriate conditions to protect other vested water rights) for one year intervals (renewable yearly) during the pendency of the water court case. The existing ground water rights are decreed for domestic purposes to include in-house use, non-commercial lawn and garden irrigation, stock watering, and standby fire protection. The existing plan for augmentation was decreed in Case No. 81CW497 and used Carbondale Land Development Corporation (CLCD) excess augmentation water, decreed in 79CW97, and contract water from the Basalt Water Conservancy District (BWCD) to augment the above uses. It is proposed to add commercial use and to use the augmentation supply decreed in the existing augmentation plan to augment any out-of-priority depletions from the proposed uses occurring on Cedar Ridge Farm. The water rights to be augmented, diversions and depletions, and the plan for augmentation including exchange are described below. BACKGROUND AND EXISTING PLAN FOR AUGMENTATION Cedar Ridge Farm is located approximately four miles northeast of Carbondale in the SW 1/4 of Section 12 and the NW1/4 of Section 13, all in Township 7 South, Range 88 West of the 6th P.M., in Garfield County, Colorado. In Case No. 81CW497, a decree was obtained for underground water rights and a plan for augmentation to replace depletions incurred by the operation of the wells. The seven conditional underground water rights were called the Cedar Ridge Farm Subdivision Well Nos. 1 – 7 and were decreed for 15 Mark Chain January 23, 2018 Page | 2 gallons per minute (gpm), 30 gpm for Well No. 7, for domestic purposes to include in- house use, non- commercial lawn and garden irrigation, stock watering, and standby fire protection for the Cedar Ridge Farm Subdivision. The wells are shown on Figure 1. The total annual depletions from the water diverted from the Cedar Ridge Farm Well Nos. 1-7 is approximately 1.26 acre-feet per year (af/yr). The augmentation supplies used to replace the well depletions are: (1) a perpetual lease from CLDC for 0.9 af of excess augmentation water, decreed in Case No. 79CW97 in Water Division 5 and (2) 1.0 af/yr of contract water from the BWCD for a total replacement amount of 1.9 af/yr. Three of the Cedar Ridge Farm Subdivision Wells have been constructed (Nos. 1, 6, and 7) and two (Nos. 6 and 7) were decreed absolute in Case No. 98CW126. Lot No. 6 was sold along with Cedar Ridge Well No. 6 and included terms that the well would remain coved under the plan for augmentation. A finding of reasonable diligence was granted for the remaining wells (Nos. 1-5) in Case No. 16CW6. NEW USES AND WATER REQUIREMENTS TO BE AUGMENTED The Cedar Ridge Farm Subdivision Wells Nos. 1-5 and No. 7 will be changed to include commercial use to provide a water supply for new planned uses on the property which include: overnight lodging, artist/ craftsman studios, community meeting events, and workshop seminars. The water rights to be augmented are the Cedar Ridge Farm Subdivision Wells Nos. 1-7 and are shown on the attached Figure 1. The water requirements for the Cedar Ridge Farm property total approximately 2.82 af/yr. The monthly distribution is shown on the attached Table 1. The background and analysis is described below. Domestic The three constructed Cedar Ridge Farm Wells (Nos. 1, 6, and 7) provide the domestic supply for four single family residences. All wastewater from the residential use is treated by a septic leach field system and the water depletions are estimated at 10 percent of the water diversions. The use was assumed to be year-round at 350 gallons per day (gpd) per residence. The domestic demand is estimated at 1.57 af/yr and the domestic depletions are estimated at 0.16 af/yr. Mark Chain January 23, 2018 Page | 3 Irrigation There is currently 0.04 acres of irrigation of bluegrass on the Lot 6 parcel, which is now owned by others. The irrigation consumptive use for the lawn and landscape is estimated at 2.71 af/acre based on the Modified Blaney Criddle Method with the Pochop Altitude Adjustment (Table 2). Average monthly temperature data were obtained from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (“NOAA”) Glenwood SPGS #2 weather station (Station ID USC00053359). The daily temperature data was adjusted to account for the difference in elevation between the weather station and the irrigated fields. The adjustment assumed that for every 1,000 feet elevation change there is a 3.60 °F change in temperature. The annual lawn irrigation demand for 0.04 acres is estimated at 0.11 acre feet assuming an 80 percent irrigation efficiency and results in a consumptive use of 0.09 af/yr. In addition to the lawn irrigation, there is currently greenhouse watering totaling 4,200 square feet with an average plant area equaling approximately 2,100 square feet. The May – September greenhouse demands will be met by Park Ditch irrigation water and the Cedar Ridge Farm Subdivision Wells will be utilized to meet the greenhouse demands during the non-irrigation season, October – April. Greenhouse use was estimated at 0.623 gallons per square foot per week or 0.089 gallons per square foot per day 1. The annual greenhouse demand is estimated at 0.12 acre feet and is considered to be 100% consumptive. Livestock The farm currently has 10 horses, 40 pigs, 15 cows, and 14 alpacas that are watered using the Cedar Ridge Farm Subdivision Well No. 7 located by the barn. It was assumed that each horse will consume 11 gallons per day (gpd), each pig 6 gpd, each cow 12 gpd, and each Alpaca 8 gpd. The annual livestock demand is estimated at 0.72 af/yr and is considered to be 100% 1 University of California, Agricultural and Natural Resources, “How Much Does My Food Garden Need?” Mark Chain January 23, 2018 Page | 4 consumptive. Commercial The new proposed commercial uses for the Cedar Ridge Farm Subdivision Well Nos. 1- 5 and 7 will include overnight lodging, artist/ craftsman studios, community meeting events, and workshop seminars. All of the facilities utilize a septic leach field system and the water depletions are estimated at 10 percent of the water diversions. The overnight lodging consists of ten units with two people per unit. The water use assumed 25 gpd per person for access to one shared bathroom with shower, but no meals or water provided, with use throughout the as follows: May through October (10 units on the weekends, 4 units during the week); November - April (2 units on the weekends, none during the week). Ten barn stalls have been converted to artist/craftsman studios which will be occupied eight hours per day five days per week. Water use assumed 12 gpd per person for access to one shared bathroom. Community meeting events and workshop seminars are also proposed. The community meeting events will accommodate up to 50 people with one occurring per week for the months May – October. Two of the community meeting events, one assumed to occur in June and the other in July, would accommodate up to 75 people. Workshop seminars will occur two per month year round for up to 20 people. Both events will have access to a shared bathroom with a meal only being provided for the community meeting events. Water use for the community event was assumed at 7 gpd per person and the workshop seminars at 3 gpd per person. The commercial demand is estimated at 0.3 af/yr and the commercial depletions are estimated at 0.03 af/yr. DELAYED DEPLETIONS The existing wells, leach field systems, and irrigated lawn area are located an average of approximately 3,000 feet from Cattle Creek resulting in a delay between the time the water is pumped from the wells and the time the impact is felt in the creek. To assess the delayed depletion a Glover analysis was completed. Table 3 summarizes the lagging percentages that should be applied to monthly diversions to determine stream impacts. Mark Chain January 23, 2018 Page | 5 In developing the lagged stream depletion it has been assumed that return flows will accrue to the stream with the same lagged pattern as the pumping depletions. This is appropriate since the location of the irrigation and leach fields are generally the same distance from the stream as the wells. The total monthly net depletions were calculated to be 1.11 af/yr. This amount is less than the 1.26 af/yr of depletions covered in the existing plan for augmentation. PLAN FOR AUGMENTATION River Administration Cattle Creek and the lower Colorado River are subject to calls from senior and junior water rights from early spring to late fall, except during early summer runoff. Historically there was no call on Cattle Creek, though beginning in 2012 the Mason Ditch located close to the confluence with the Roaring Fork River, began placing a call beginning after the early summer runoff and continuing through the irrigation season. The "Cameo" rights on the Colorado River have typically called one week in April and May, two weeks in June, and July through the first week of November. Therefore, replacement water is required for out-of-priority irrigation depletions April through November. Replacement Water The out of priority irrigation depletions will be replaced with 0.9 leased CLDC excess consumptive use credits or 1.0 acre-feet of Basalt Water Conservancy District (BWCD) contract water 2, totaling 1.9 acre-feet of replacement water for Cedar Ridge Farm to utilize. Plan Operation A monthly balance of depletions and replacement water sources is shown on the attached Table 1. The analysis indicates that approximately 0.42 acre-feet of CLDC water and 0.11 acre-feet of contract storage releases are required to offset the balance of potential out- of-priority depletions. Cedar Ridge Farm’s current BWCD contract for 1.0 acre feet, is sufficient to cover the downstream out-of-priority depletions, including a 10 percent transit 2 The BWCD contract will make four water rights available for augmentation purposes: Green Mountain Reservoir, Ruedi Reservoir, Troy and Edith Ditch water rights, and Robinson Ditch water rights. Mark Chain January 23, 2018 Page | 6 loss of 0.01 acre-feet (0.12 acre-feet total). Exchange Utilization of the BWCD water rights for augmentation incorporates an exchange from the point those supplies are introduced to the river up to the point of depletion on Cattle Creek. The amount of the exchange is the maximum monthly stream depletion during the non- irrigation season which is 0.94 acre-feet in November. This converts to an exchange rate of 0.002 cubic feet per second. The exchange reach extends from the confluence of the Colorado River with the Roaring Fork River up to the point of depletion on Cattle Creek in the NW¼ SW¼, Section 12, Township 7 South, Range 88 West, 6th P.M. and shown on the attached Figure 2. The lower termini include: 1.

The subject of the inspection is the OWTS serving the barn. Legal Description: Quarter: SW Section: 12 Township: 7 Range: 88 A TR. BEG. AT THE 1/4 COR COMMON TO SEC. 12 & 13, AKA PARCEL A, FIRST AMENDMENT TO SMITH EXEMPTION RCE. # 421786. EXCEPT A TRACT OF LAND CONT. 35.1 AC.+/- AS DESCRIBED IN DEED OF TRUST REC. # 694467. Parcel ID: 2392-123-00-300 Individual Sewage Disposal System Permit 1035 was provided by Garfield County Community Development Department. The subject OWTS consists of one 1250-gallon, two-compartment Copeland concrete septic tank followed by a pipe and gravel soil treatment area (STA). The suggested size was 12’ x 45’ x 3’ deep or 18’ x 30’ x 3’ deep; however, the actual size is not documented in the permitting information. The system was sized to accommodate a 4-bedroom residence. The permit was finalized on August 8, 1981. The septic tank is located on the north side of the barn. We did not observe a clean out between the barn and the septic tank. The inlet side of the septic tank was accessible approximately 6-inches below grade. The outlet side was buried and had to be uncovered for our inspection. No risers were ever added to this side of the septic tank. Four feet of risers will be added to the outlet side of the septic tank for access. We were able to verify the built-in concrete baffle on the inlet side of the septic tank. The outlet baffle will be verified as soon as the lid can be removed. It appeared that liquid levels in the septic tank were normal at the time of our inspection. We will be able to verify as soon as the outlet lid is removed. The septic tank was last pumped by B&R Septic in May of 2014. We will make additional recommendations and complete the inspection once the outlet side of the septic tank is observed. There are no inspection ports in the STA. The exact location is not known. If exact location is required by Garfield County, a camera will need to be utilized to identify the location of the manifold. We assume the STA is located just north of the septic tank, paralleling the hillside and possibly extending under the driveway. The size of the STA is documented by Garfield County as 540 square feet, with 3-feet of gravel below the distribution piping (defined as a “deep gravel” system). We walked the approximate STA and found no evidence of surface saturation or failure at the time of our inspection. This evaluation is not a guarantee of future system performance. The use of the barn is changing and 10 “creative spaces” are proposed. This use will be similar to that of an “8-hour office employee” with sizing criteria outlined in Garfield County On-Site OWTS Regulations, effective June 30, 2014. Additionally, small catered events are proposed. Food will be catered and all food preparation and ware washing will take place off-site. Small events are anticipated to accommodate up to 20 people. There is no comparable classification on the chart. We could estimate 10 gallon/person/night for the small catered events. Table 1 below compares the size of the existing OWTS to sizing requirements for proposed uses under current OWTS regulations. 2014 OWTS Regulation Calculations 15 gal/person/day (GPD) x 10 “8-hour employees” = 150 GPD 10 GPD x 20 people = 300 GPD 150 GPD + 200 GPD = 450 GPD 350 GPD / 0.8 gal/sf (assumed Soil Type 1) = 438 SF x 1.2 (bed configuration) x 1.0 (pipe and gravel) = 525 SF Table 1 Existing 2014 OWTS Regulations Tank Size 1250-gallon tank Min. 1000 gallons Soil Treatment Area Gravity, bed configuration, pipe and gravel (3-feet of deep gravel)1 Infiltrative area: 540 SF using 6 minutes per inch (MPI) percolation rate Infiltrative area: 525 SF using 0.8 gal/SF (assumed Soil Type 1 based on documented percolation rate of 6 MPI) In summary, the system appears to be sized to accommodate the future 10 “creative spaces” and catered events2 to accommodate up to 20 people under current OWTS Regulations. This letter does not address soil analysis beyond the information documented in the Garfield County ISDS Permit as 6 MPI. We strongly recommend a water meter be installed on the water line entering the barn to more accurately monitor water usage. As the system was sized to accommodate a 4-bedroom residence (600 GPD) and the proposed usage of the barn space with the 10 “creative spaces” and small catered events with up to 20 people is calculated at 350 GPD, there should be additional capacity in the OWTS to accommodate additional uses. It is worth noting that the existing OWTS is aging and the current condition and location of the STA is unknown, presumably under a driveway. Increased use could limit the life of the OWTS. 1 Note: Deep gravel was allowed reductions under previous regulation. Under current regulation, no reduction is given for deep gravel. 2 All food preparation and ware washing would take place off-site for all catered events. Disclaimer: This inspection is intended only as an evaluation of the present condition of the OWTS based upon what was observed and the Licensed Inspector’s expertise in onsite wastewater technology. The Inspector has not been retained to warrant or guarantee the proper functioning of the system for any period of time in the future. Because of numerous factors which may affect the operation of an OWTS, as well as the inability of the Inspector to supervise or monitor the use or maintenance of this OWTS, this report shall not be construed as a warranty by the Inspector that the system will function properly for any particular prospective buyer, and the Inspector disclaims any warranty, either expressed or implied, arising from the inspection of the OWTS or this report. The evaluation does not ascertain the impact the system is having on groundwater. Please call with questions.

enlarged site plan1N Section 4 Compliance with Article 7 - Standards, Division 1-3 and Impact Analysis CEDAR RIDGE RANCH - COMMUNITY EVENT/MEETING CENTER SECTION 4 This section includes point by point responses to Article 7 Standards, Divisions 1- 3 and the Impact Analysis per Section 4-203 G of the Garfield County LUDC. Please note that these responses are only for the Cedar Ridge Ranch Community Event/Meeting Center application. Responses for the Lodging Facility and Creative Spaces are in the separate, companion application. 1 | Page Cedar Ridge Ranch Impact Analysis COMPLIANCE WITH ARTICLE 7, DIVISIONS 1 – 3 The following section of this application addresses compliance with the criteria and standards of Article 7, Divisions 1-3 of the Garfield County Land Use and Development Code. Responses to each criterion are in “italics”. Where standards don’t apply, NA or reason for non-applicability will be stated. DIVISION 1 GENERAL APPROVAL STANDARDS FOR LAND USE CHANGE PERMITS Section 7-101 Compliance with Zone District Use Restrictions. Response: The site is located in the County’s Rural "R" Industrial Zone District. The Cedar Ridge Event/Meeting Center will be in compliance with the Zone District, lot and building requirements, Intent Statement, land use and all dimensional requirements contained in Article 3 (Zoning) of the LUDC. Large parcel size and location of the Event Center and activities away from parcel boundaries makes compliance relatively straightforward. Section 7-102 Compliance with Comprehensive Plan and Intergovernmental Agreements Response: We addressed this issue in detail in Section 2 of the Application – Project Background and Information. Garfield County Comprehensive Plan 2030 designates the site as Residential Low Density. The County Comp Plan discussion lists agricultural and rural uses and even Accessory Dwelling units that are buffered from incompatible uses that are nearby. Density for this designation is 10 acres per dwelling unit. In addition to the Comprehensive Plan designation in the application text, we identified various comprehensive plan sections, policies, strategies and actions and relevant “issues”. Many of these are identified in a previous Staff Report on the project. Others that seemed relevant during our Comp Plan review have been added to the application. Many of these identified items relate to diversifying tourism 2 | Page Cedar Ridge Ranch Impact Analysis in the area, providing for continuation and expansion of agricultural/rural uses and Agri-tourism. It is our conclusion that the Event Center application is in conformance with the County Comprehensive Plan 2030. The applicant will comply with any relevant Intergovernmental Agreements that may be in place. We are not aware of such agreements and will respond as necessary. Section 7-103 Compatibility Response: The nature, scale and intensity of the proposed uses are compatible with adjacent land uses. Presently, there are agricultural related uses and low density/rural residential land uses. The Event/Meeting Center is located in the north central property of the property and the large Barn/Arena facility already exists. The majority of the events/meetings will take place in the central corridor which runs east-west through much of the southern portion of the facility. Larger gatherings would take place immediately outside the Barn/arena the designated are. This is essentially a repurposing of the facility on a temporary basis. Moreover, most events/workshops/ag and resource efficiency demonstrations will be relatively small and can easily be accommodated in the central corridor. This includes any farm to table type of functions. Any events requiring food service will be catered – with all cooking, food prep and other such related activities occurring off site. Conclusion. The Project is compatible with adjacent land uses. Section 7-104 Sufficient Legal and Physical Source of Water Response: There is both a sufficient Physical and Legal source of water for the project. The Planning and Technical Issues memo briefly notes the water rights and augmentation background associated with the property. The Letter provided by Resource Engineering summarizes the efforts to document new, identified land uses and the Jess augmented uses by filing of a Substitute Water Supply Plan. 3 | Page Cedar Ridge Ranch Impact Analysis Two wells currently supply the property, with what is known as the Barn well (permit No. 51460-F) will supply the majority of water to event/meetings/functions. Hauled water in 5- gallon containers provided by Deep Rock may be used for convenience purposes. The property also comes with the rights for 4 additional wells, though these are presently augmented for residential and domestic purposes. One or more these wells may be targeted for re-augmentation if necessary during the review of the Substitute Water Supply Plan. Section 7-105 Central Water Distribution and Wastewater Systems Response: Water will be provided for the Event/Meetings with the current system located at the barn/arena. No additional physical increases anticipated at this time. The existing OWTS will be utilized for any functions for 20 people or less. This limit Is being set when the Creative Spaces are leased out. In the off-season when Creative Spaces are not utilized, functions for up to 30 people can be handled by the on-site OWTS. Please note that the number functions will be minimal during the cold weather season. Functions that would accommodate more people and identified above would be accommodated by the use of porta potty’s. A new OWTS is being proposed for Phase 3. Sizing parameters are unknown at this time. Section 7-106 Public Utilities Response: Adequate public utilities are available. The property presently has electric service. Natural gas has not been extended to the site. Propane will be used. Water and wastewater have been discussed previously. Section 7-107 Access and Roadways Response: Access and Roadways have been discussed in the Planning Technical Memo. Items addressed were: 4 | Page Cedar Ridge Ranch Impact Analysis • Physical access from County Road 103 on to the Private Access Drive. • Geometry of the Private Drive. • Estimated trips generated. Classification for the private access drive will be semi- primitive. Please note that this is a private driveway and will not be a dedicated right-of-way. All criteria for semi-primitive use appear to be met with the exception of total driveway with. A waiver has been requested. See Project Narrative and Background, Section 2 Section 7-108 Use of Land Subject to Natural Hazards Response: Natural Hazards do not constrain the use of the property – either is currently used toward the of the proposed Development Plan for the Events/Meeting area. The subject property is not in the floodplain and there are no areas of high groundwater, wetlands etc. There are no known areas of mud flow, radiation, alluvial fans, avalanche or landslide areas etc. Section 7-109 Fire Protection Response: Wildfire Hazards are rated “low” for the subject property according to the County Risk Assessment Maps. The Project Planner has met with the Fire District and discussed emergency access and fire protection. Access via the existing private driveway appears acceptable, though a few pullout areas may be required to enhance sight distance and passage of vehicles in certain situations. These discussions have included an on-site inspection with the Fire Marshall. He will respond formally as part of the County Referral process. DIVISION 2 GENERAL RESOURCE PROTECTION STANDARDS FOR LAND USE CHANGE PERMITS Resource Protection Standards apply to all proposed land- use changes, unless specifically exempted. 5 | Page Cedar Ridge Ranch Impact Analysis Section 7-201 Protection of Agricultural Lands A. No Adverse Effect to Agricultural Operations. Response: There should be no adverse effect. The event Center (Barn/Arena) is well away from most residentially use neighboring properties and the facility itself has been in existence for over 20 years. B. Domestic Animal Controls. Response: Any dogs will be kenneled or sheltered if necessary. C. Fences. Response: No new fences are included in the development application. D. Roads Response: No public roads are being constructed. The internal roadway is considered to be a private driveway. There are no plans to pave the road. Snow removal will be performed as necessary for the facilities by the owner. Dust control will occur as necessary – primarily by application of water if necessary and by application of Mag Chloride if those efforts are not successful. The Access Driveway and the barn/arena are positioned well away from neighboring agricultural operations. E. Ditches No adverse affect on Ag Lands: no construction is being contemplated that would be near any existing ditches. Therefore, no existing ditches will be modified. Existing ditches will not be modified. No development will channel surface water to any ditches. Section 7-202 Protection of Wildlife Habitat Areas Response: 6 | Page Cedar Ridge Ranch Impact Analysis There are no identified critical Wildlife Habitat Areas. This subject property has been identified as Mule Deer Winter Range and severe winter range/Winter concentration area for Elk. The applicant will comply with past recommendations of the Colorado Parks and Wildlife Department or any suggested new ones related to Best Management Practices (regarding solid waste, pet control and prohibition of feeding wildlife). There are no known raptor nests or similar critical breeding habitat. No new fences are being constructed which would interfere with any animals that may cross the property. Section 7-203 Protection of Water bodies Response: There are no identified natural water bodies, streams, rivers or Wetlands on the property. Section 7-204 Drainage and Erosion Response: Comments are as follows: • Site disturbance will be minimal. No new areas for significant development are being proposed. There may be one existing small berm to the east of the barn/arena which may be removed in order to better facilitate parking and emergency access. No other site disturbance is anticipated with the exception of leveling of three small areas for tents in Phase 1 and location of wooden platforms or other appropriate foundations for three tents in Phase 2 (southwest quadrant of the property as shown on the annotated Site Plan). Section 7-205 Environmental Quality Response: • No impacts are foreseen related to air quality – no activities related to the development should create smoke or other discharges related to air quality. • Water Quality. Activity areas are not located near any ditches, water bodies etc. Any hazardous materials will be stored in compliance with state and federal regulations. 7 | Page Cedar Ridge Ranch Impact Analysis Section 7-206 Wildfire Hazards Response: • The subject property is listed as being in a low wildfire hazard area. Areas of significant slope are relatively small and limited to the eastern and western fringes of the property. No event/meetings are proposed for these areas. • Fire Marshall has been made aware of plans and has previously visited the site. He will comment as part of the County Referral Process. • Applicant agrees to implement any fire mitigation procedures proposed by Carbondale Fire Section 7-207 Natural and Geologic Hazards Response: no known or expected natural and geologic hazards are foreseen related to any construction or activities proposed for the Event/Meeting area. The property is not located in an avalanche, landslide, rock fall, alluvial fan, areas of extreme slope subject to development etc. Section 7-208 Reclamation Response: The development will comply with the standards outlined in Section 7-208 of the Land Use Code. Site disturbance will be relatively minimal. Any Improvements to the private driveway or to areas around the barn/arena are minimal. No new permanent structures are being proposed. Any area disturbed will be reclaimed and re-vegetated with native grasses. . DIVISION 3 SITE PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS The standards in this section apply to any land use change and all uses, including divisions of land and PUD’s. Single- family dwelling units are exempt. Some standards would appear not to be relevant due to the specific use – Community Event/Meeting Center. Minimal development 8 | Page Cedar Ridge Ranch Impact Analysis will be undertaken on land outside the northern portions of the parcel. However, we will address these sections for completeness purposes and to show the relationship of the existing land use with applicable standards as much as possible Section 7-301 Compatible Design Response: The Events Center and it’s proposed management plan meets these standards. A. Site Organization. NA. There are no public streets or defined lots or common areas around which to organize the site. Parking is located in close proximity to the Event Barn/Arena. It is assumed that most guests will arrive by motor vehicle. B. Operational Characteristics. There are no everyday activities from this particular use. There are no general hours of operation etc. Other comments: • No dust, objectionable orders, gas or fumes should be admitted to adjacent property. There may be the smells of barbecue or food for certain events. • Noise is not projected to be a problem for this facility. activities will occur within the barn itself in a central meeting and dining area between the Creative Space units. Please see barn/arena layout drawing in Section 3 – Technical Documents. This should help minimize noise and other activities. • Events will be shut down by dark. C. Buffering. No required buffering is anticipated. The Event/Meetings are located at the northern portion of the property and away from most adjoining residential uses. Horse arena can be used as necessary D. Materials. No new structures are being proposed for the Event/Meeting area. Porta potty’s will be used for the larger events but these will be located adjacent to the barn/arena as shown. One or two accessory buildings may be utilized in the future for composting toilets if proposed. 9 | Page Cedar Ridge Ranch Impact Analysis Section 7-302 Off- Street Parking and Loading Standards Response: Section 7-302 A- O, may not be applicable. Uses are intermittent and no regular off-street parking or loading is required. There are no adjacent public streets within 0.5 miles of the Event/Meeting area. Parking areas have been conceptually noted. It is assumed that most events/meetings will have two occupants per vehicle and this will be actively encouraged by the owners. We will be happy to provide more details that staff request. Section 7-303 Landscaping Standards Response: The project will comply with the intent of the County’s Landscaping Standards in this section. Specifically: no trees or other significant vegetation is being removed. There is not a foreseen need to plant new vegetation with the proposed activities in the barn area. The parking is proposed in areas that are open and in close proximity to the Event area. There is sufficient clear vision area and no trees exist or are being planted in the vicinity of the intersection of the access driveway/County Road 103. Given the activities proposed, distance to adjoining properties in the very nature of events/Meetings, we feel the planning of trees unnecessary and no Landscape Plan is proposed. Section 7-304 Lighting Standards Response. No outdoor lighting is proposed at this time. Any lighting that is necessary will comply with the standards of this section of the Garfield County LUDC, and will be downcast and shielded as necessary. Section 7-305 Snow Storage Standards Response: The Events and/or Meetings rarely occur during the winter season. Therefore, we feel no snow storage area needs to be defined. If necessary, snow storage can be accommodated north of the pole barn (building shown on the survey north of the barn/arena). 10 | Page Cedar Ridge Ranch Impact Analysis Section 7-306 Trail and Walkway Standards Response: NA. There are no permanent facilities, regular hours of operation or permanent residential units which will make trails or walkways necessary. The property is generally open and visitors can walk where they wish, though for Event/Meetings activities will be held in or adjacent to the barn/arena. 1 | Page Cedar Ridge Impact Analysis Impact Analysis Below are the evaluation criteria outlined in Section 4-203 G (Impact Analysis). We will address each criterion on a point by point basis. Where they do not apply, we will indicate with “NA” 1. Adjacent land use. Existing use of adjacent property/neighboring properties within 1500-foot radius. Response: The most intense use from a development perspective occurs to the north of the subject property – the Cotton Hollow Subdivision is a rural residential subdivision which actually access is off of the Cattle Creek Drainage. These homes are generally slightly lower in elevation than the activities on the subject parcel. East: Rural Residential properties which average about 14 acres in size. Also to the east are The BLM holdings (1677 acres which also extends to the north and along the other side of cattle Creek) and a commercial horse arena. South East: three rural residential properties that are five and 6 acres in size. Most have two residential units on them. South and West: there are 3 parcels which are located south and wraparound to the west of the subject parcel. These include grazing and irrigated hay fields totaling about 315 acres. There are total of four residential units on these parcels. 2. Site Features. A description of site features such as streams, areas subject to flooding, lakes, topography, vegetation cover etc. Response: The subject property is generally located at the northern edge of the Missouri Heights area. Topography is gently rolling, and the majority of the subject site is irrigated hay fields and pasture. There are portions of the property along the east and to the West which are slightly higher in elevation in characterized by Pinyon/Juniper Woodlands. There are no natural lakes or ponds on the area, though there is one the irrigation pond and another small area which does collect drainage during the warm weather season. There are numerous agricultural structures, pens and paddocks in the northern portion of the site – including a 26,000+ barn/horse arena. These physical 2 | Page Cedar Ridge Impact Analysis improvements were described in Section 2. The Park Ditch provides irrigation water to the property, but the ditch itself only touches the property along the South most extent. Irrigation water delivered by pipes and mechanical irrigation systems. Impact to natural site features will be nonexistent or minimal. There will be little additional physical development on the property. For the Community Event Center, activities will occur within the Creative Space/Event area in the barn/arena. There may be activities adjacent to the barn or in the small pasture directly west of the “Yurt” camping area, but these will only be for a couple of hours at a time maximum (when they are associated with a particular event/celebration). Some of the workshops may involve attendees visiting portions of the working ranch, irrigation areas or greenhouses. No significant improvements are proposed with the access drive. Some small areas may be regraded for parking. No new utilities will be extended onto the site. A new OWTS will be constructed in Phase 3 for the Barn/Arena and related uses, but this should not impact adjacent properties. 3. Soil Characteristics: Response: The subject property is similar to the other surrounding areas in Missouri Heights. An in-depth soil studies has not been done at this time as there will be minimal disturbance to the site itself. 4. Geology and Hazard. A description of the geologic characteristics of the area including any potential natural or man-made hazards, and the determination of what effects such factors would have on the proposed use of land. Response: As noted above, a formal Geotech analysis has not been undertaken as the geologic and natural hazards. The area is not subject to floodplains, alluvial fans etc. there is one area i a slight depression south of the irrigation pond where water collects during the irrigation season. This is not a jurisdictional wetland. As the property is generally open, there is no evidence that the property is subject to landslides, avalanche hazard etc. 5. Groundwater and Aquifer Recharge Areas. Evaluation of the relationship of the subject parcel to floodplains, the nature of soils and subsoils and their ability to adequately support waste disposal, the slope of land, effect of sewage effluents, and the pollution of surface runoff, streamflow and groundwater. 3 | Page Cedar Ridge Impact Analysis Response: Description of the physical site has been made a number of times in this application. We believe that the impacts of the proposed land-use is nonexistent or minimal. As noted earlier, there are no floodplains or jurisdictional wetlands on the subject property. There will be little disturbance to the subject site with the Event Center and virtually no additional property will be paved over. Therefore, aquifer recharge should not be an issue. Slope of Land. No impact. Hillsides are not being proposed for any development so there will be no disturbance in this regard. Pollution of surface runoff, streamflow and groundwater. Operation should not cause additional pollution that would affect streamflow and groundwater. Proposed Events/Meetings will just have people enjoying themselves in passive manner and not undertaking activities such as car repair, changing oil or any commercial/industrial activities that could cause such pollution. There will be no car repairs or even any recreational activities which should generate pollution. Property owners will supervise events and take care of all debris, waste etc. Wastewater for most events will be handled by the existing OWTS at the barn/arena. Events larger than 20 people (when the Creative Spaces are occupied) will be handled by porta potty’s. The existing OWTS is proposed to be replaced and expanded in Phase 3. 6. Environmental Impacts. Determination of the existing environmental conditions of the parcel to be developed and the effect of development on those conditions, including: a. Determination of the long-term and short-term effect on flora and fauna; Response - Flora and Fauna: No additional construction will be taking place with the event Center. Most Events and workshops will be held inside in the Creative space/event area. Any outside celebrations will last two hours or less and then will move on to the Event Center. No permanent improvements are planned for the irrigated ranch operation areas. No significant vegetation will be cut or removed. The effect on fauna should be minimal. No additional fences are being proposed – so wildlife should build a pass-through as they have historically done. b. Determination of the effect on designated environmental resources, including critical wildlife habitat; 4 | Page Cedar Ridge Impact Analysis Response: Since these uses are short in duration and there is virtually no permanent construction, we are not aware of impacts to the local environment. The Colorado Parks and Wildlife Department has previously commented on the previous land-use application for the property. Applicants agree to their previous recommendations including Best Management Practices for solid waste etc. c. Impacts on wildlife and domestic animals through creation of hazardous attractions, alteration of existing native vegetation, blockade of migration routes, use patterns, or other disruptions; and Response: No significant impact foreseen. Alteration of existing vegetation will be nonexistent or minimal –No attractive or hazardous nuisances are being created. No migration routes are being blocked. No other disruptions should occur. No “attractive “or hazardous nuisances are being constructed. Community Event/Meetings are very transitory in nature and nobody will be utilizing or constructing any permanent structures that should degrade the area. Dogs being bought to the property will be kenneled. d. Evaluation of any potential radiation hazard that may have been identified by the state or County Health Departments. Response: To our knowledge, no known radiation hazards have been identified in this vicinity. 7. Nuisance. Impact to adjacent land from generation of vapor, dust, smoke, noise, glare or vibration, or other emanations. Response: The nature of Community Meeting/Events are such that no unusual vapor, glare or vibration should be created. These are not industrial, semi-industrial or commercial in nature. Noise should only be generated by certain types of events – specifically, celebrations such as weddings. Any music will occur in the Creative spaces/Event Center which is a portion of the existing barn/arena. This way, noise will effectively be controlled. 8. Hours of Operation. Events are held in daylight hours and do not occur after dark. Any gatherings or workshops will generally take place in the Creative spaces/Arena area. Use of 5 | Page Cedar Ridge Impact Analysis pastor area for a particular celebration has been identified on the Annotated Site Plan. These outdoor uses are limited to a maximum of 2 hours. Section 5 Miscellaneous Documents Memo – responses to Previous Review Agency Comments Owners within 200 Feet of Subject Property Comments on Mineral Rights Miscellaneous Water/Wastewater Information Past Title Work (relevant Portions) 01-22-18-1.mem Page 1 M E M O R A N D U M TO: Garfield County Staff FROM: Mark Chain, Planner DATE: 1/22/18 RE: PAST REVIEW AGENCY COMMENTS The Applicant’s Design Team has reviewed the County Review Agency comments for the previous land use application that was scheduled for a public hearing on July 17, 2017 (File GAPA-04-17-8531). These comments are meant to respond to all significant agency comments including proposed solutions. Colorado Division of Water Resources (Memo dated June 6, 2017). Water Supply. Applicant is applying for a Substitute Water Supply Plan to provide for additional Augmentation related to the proposed uses. Water supply is proposed for proposed lodging units, 10 Creative spaces and Event/meeting/functions for up to 75 people. Bathroom facilities in the barn/arena will accommodate the 10 Creative Spaces and event/meeting/functions for up to 20 people. Events serving more than 20 customers will utilize porta potty’s for wastewater services until a new OWTS is constructed (Phase 3 of Development Plan). Rain Barrels. Rain barrels are being removed from the Development Plan. Water Supply for Barn. It is noted that the barn well is augmented for ordinary household purposes, 2000 ft.² of irrigated area and some watering for domestic animals including 20 horses. The augmentation is in process of being changed to allow immediate use for the use is outlined in the land use application subject to the approval of the Substitute Water Supply Plan. Colorado Parks and Wildlife (Letter dated May 24, 2017). Applicant intends to follow all recommended Best Management Practices related to solid waste and paths. These include: • Best Management Practices - Solid waste/trash 1. during events – garbage and bear proof containers to be used and removed on regular basis 2. trash kept inside secure enclosure until morning of trash pickup 01-22-18-1.mem Page 2 • Pet Control 1. pets should not be allowed to roam free – especially dogs 2. dogs leased or kenneled 3. feeding of wildlife prohibited except songbirds Garfield County Public Health (Letter dated June 7, 2017) Drinking Water Supply. The Barn/Arena area well will be the source of portable water for the Creative Spaces and for Phase 1 Event/meetings/workshops. Water in 5-gallon containers will perhaps be utilized for larger Events/Meetings. Lodging Units will also utilize the “Barnwell”, with 5-gallon bottles in in water cooler dispensing stations. Wastewater Treatment An assessment on the existing OWTS has been completed and is included with this application. A new OWTS will be provided for the barn/arena area which can accommodate Event/meetings with the capacity of 75 attendees and Creative Spaces (10) in Phase 3 of the development plan or upon failure of the existing OWTS. The lodging Units will initially utilize porta potties/water stations with specifications as shown in Section 3 – Technical Document section. These will be upgraded with Composting Toilets or other suitable solution in Phase 2 or 3 of the development plan - timing depending on monies available. Any upgrades imported bodies would of course be accompanied by a County Permit application. Large events. Initially, events that serve a client base larger than 20 customers will have a coordinator and a specific plan that it provides for adequate wastewater services by portable units. County Road and Bridge (Letter dated May 17, 2017) Applicant will comply with prior Road and Bridge memo form and Mike Prehm. These items are: • realign driveway to obtain a 90° intersection • install stop sign that driveway • install concrete/asphalt apron • all the above to be done as part of the driveway access permit process Carbondale Fire Department (emails dated April 20 and June 7, 2017) The Project Planner has read through previous comments from Carbondale Fire. We’ve also met with the Fire Marshall to discuss occupancy and safety related issues for the arena/barn. In addition, Project Planner met with Fire Marshall on site to review driveway access from County Road 103 to the event area and reviewed safety and emergency access issues. The Fire Marshall indicated emergency access can be satisfactory with slight modifications such as widening 01-22-18-1.mem Page 3 the access driveway a few feet in a few locations, having turnouts and driveway to improve sight distance in two or three areas. Other issues that have been identified: • lodging facilities using tents and related membranes will have to meet relevant Fire and Building Codes (including IFC Chapter 24) • a life/safety plan should be submitted for proper analysis of barn occupancies (provided in Section 3) • use of creative spaces should comply with electric code and be inspected State Inspector • ditch or ponds will probably be the initial water source used for firefighting. Vegetation Management (Garfield County Vegetation Management – letter dated June 8, 2017) The applicant will comply with the previous requests of the Department related to vegetation management. Specifically: • will prepare a noxious weed map by a date certain assuming approval of the Land Use Change Permit. Colorado Division of Water Resources. Email dated June 12, 2017 on water supply violation (blue poly pipe to yurt) • the pipe has been removed and the yurt has been converted from residential occupancy to storage use.

Signatures. Randy Johnson signature on the application forms is attached. 2. Mineral Rights Owners. Merrill Johnson previously did research on mineral rights owners with the spring 2017 application. She found that 1/ 32nd of mineral rights of the subject property were retained by Charles & Ima Renftle (deed attached – Present address or heirs address unknown). I also found this in my research. A recent title commitment has also been issued for the property. A review of the title commitment and associated documents did not indicate that other mineral rights had been severed recently. I will continue to do additional research to ensure that subsequent owners of the property (Norman and Mary Sherwood and Sandra Smith) did not retain mineral rights. At that time, I will also try to determine any remaining address for Renftle. 3. Title Work. An updated title commitment from Land Title is attached. 4. Water Supply Plan A complete water supply plan has not been filed at this time with the application. Please note that the well has been in place for over 30 years and initial pump tests indicated 30 GPM. The well is still in use and serves the barn/horse arena. Our proposal is to request a submittal waiver per Section 4 – 202. If this application is approved, we will move forward with the pump testing and water Mark Chain Consulting, LLC Page 2 811 Garfield Avenue Carbondale, CO 81623 Ph 970.963.0385 Fax 970.963.2916 mchain@sopris.net quality testing. Below are the criteria outlined for a submittal waiver and responses. C. Review Criteria (Section 4 – 202 C). 1. The Applicant shows good cause for the requested waiver; Response: The well has been in operation and utilized for over 20 years. The owners are not aware of any problems at this time or in the past. The proposal is to schedule an additional well test and water quality testing if the land use change permits are approved. 2. The project size, complexity, anticipated impacts, or other factors support a waiver; Response: No additional use or persons utilizing the well will occur unless approval of the land use change permits. Adequate supply has been provided to the site since construction of the well. 3. The waiver does not compromise a proper and complete review; and Response: An adequate review can be undertaken with the land use change permits. We can provide additional support and information from Resource Engineering on request. 4. The information is not material to describing the proposal or demonstrating compliance with approval criteria. Response: Basic development background information has been examined and provided. Applicant has already applied for and submitted a Substitute Water Supply Plan, as contained in Section 5 of the Lodging and Creative Space application. There is enough information for Review Agencies to comment on the application. Mark Chain Consulting, LLC Page 3 811 Garfield Avenue Carbondale, CO 81623 Ph 970.963.0385 Fax 970.963.2916 mchain@sopris.net 5. Substitute Water Supply Plan. The substitute water supply plan demonstrating legal water for the proposed uses was included in Section 5 of the Lodging/creative Spaces application. We are including it here with this letter addressing completeness review. The project team has also requested additional comments from Rob Pierce, attorney for the applicant – who filed the Water Augmentation Plan (Application for Change of Water rights, Supplemental Plan of Augmentation and Appropriative Right of Exchange). 6. Nuisance Impacts. The goal of the Johnsons is to minimize and prevent nuisances related to any proposed land-use activities. The potential nuisance issue that people have brought up in similar applications is noise impact. At this point I would like to clarify the hours of operation and potential steps the Johnsons and Project Team are taking to eliminate adverse noise conditions. The potential noise impacts we see are associated with Community Events/Celebrations such as weddings. The Plan is: Amplification. There will be no outside “amplified” music at any of the Event/Celebrations. By this we mean a typical band, with electrical guitar, bass, woofers, drums etc. Music that will be allowed outside will be “acoustic” only, not amplified music. As being acoustic – acoustic guitar, violin etc. Some of this acoustic playing may occur in small areas in the outdoor celebration “meadow area” shown on the Overall Site Plan (sheet a-01, Section 3) and also immediately outside the barn/arena entry and inside the Event/celebration hallway. Any amplified music or such event that may include dancing would be played within the Community Event/Meeting area in the south side of the Barn/Arena. As you know from previous site visits this is a completely enclosed structure and of course windows and doors can be closed off as necessary so that noise impacts can be effectively mitigated. In addition, please note that the number of attendees at any Event/Celebration/Meeting has been capped at 75 people and the number of these events has also been limited. Time frame for events/celebrations. Any acoustic music that may be outside will be shut down towards the end of daylight hours. If there is any amplified or dance music in the Community Event/Meeting area, that will be turned off at 9 PM. The applicants do request that people be allowed to mingle after daylight hours inside the Event/Meeting/art gallery area in the south portion of the barn (after sunset). This would only be for quite conversation, debriefing etc. No people would be outside of the barn/arena area or in the previously identified meadow area after daylight hours. Timeframe for farm to table meals, educational demonstrations and similar meetings. These can be classified as events or meetings without music. Certain meetings and farm to table meals will occur in the Event/Meeting area. Since these do not generate noise, it is proposed that these be allowed to be Mark Chain Consulting, LLC Page 4 811 Garfield Avenue Carbondale, CO 81623 Ph 970.963.0385 Fax 970.963.2916 mchain@sopris.net held inside beyond daylight hours for purposes of having quite conversation etc. Educational demonstrations for farming, sustainability and similar topics may be held outside or at appropriate locations on the ranch. These will be closed down at dark; however the applicants would also like these events to have a similar opportunity to continue on after dark in the Event/Meeting area. Noise Standards. All activities will comply with standards set out by C.R.S. 25- 12-103 or as set out by regulations adopted by Garfield County. The standard is presently 55 db (A) between 7 AM to 7 PM and at 50 db (A) from 7 PM to 7 AM at the property line according to state guidelines. We are confident that by eliminating amplified music outside and having no organized activities after dark and having activities directly adjacent to or within the Meeting/Event area at the south segment of the barn will bring the site into compliance related to the property line. The Meeting/Event portion of the barn is approximately 150 feet from the nearest property boundary and the northeast corner of the barn/arena is approximately 87 feet from what of the property boundaries. (Note: barn/arena is an enclosed structure). Noise Testing. We are presently measuring ambient noise at the property to establish local baselines. We are using a Reed Sound Level Meter – Model ST- 805. Background noise measurement was conducted from 4 PM to 5 PM on Friday afternoon, March 30. There were no activities occurring on the property or immediately outside or adjacent to the barn/arena. Ambient noise levels were measured on the db (A) scale in order to initially measure background, ambient noise levels. Out of the wind, the db (A) readings fluctuated from 44.1 to approximately 49 db. In areas where there was measurable wind (it was a breezy afternoon), decibel readings varied from 63 db to approximately 70db. One ATV did approach the barn/arena and from a distance of approximately 75feet measured db 57.0. Tests were then conducted by playing a radio station on a car radio (Toyota Highlander) with all doors and rear hatch open at full volume. The car was placed at approximately 120 feet from the property boundary. Noise was measured on the db(c ) scale, more appropriate for measuring sound of “amplified musical activity”. At 50 feet from the automobile, noise measurements ranged from mid- 60 db to up to 89 db. It should be noted that an Alpine Bank advertisement utilizing the voice of Chairman Bob Young ranged in the high 60’s dB range. Please note that there is no intention to have this type of amplified music outside of the Community Event/Meeting space or having music play loudly from parked vehicles in vicinity of property boundaries for activities. This is solely for the purpose of obtaining some baseline estimates. Mark Chain Consulting, LLC Page 5 811 Garfield Avenue Carbondale, CO 81623 Ph 970.963.0385 Fax 970.963.2916 mchain@sopris.net 7. Creative Spaces. Looking through the uses allowed in Garfield County’s Rural “R” Zone District, it is our opinion that the Creative Spaces are equivalent to the Office Use designation in the LUCD. This confirms that the most appropriate type of land-use review is a Limited Impact Review. After the evaluation of the type of tenants who may occupy the spaces, these would range from professional office type uses to arts and crafts/artists that may occupy space in a typical Western Colorado downtown town such as Carbondale, Basalt or Glenwood Springs. As noted in other portions the application, these Creative Spaces will not have any toxic substances, open flames or any other hazardous type uses or activities. Detailed plans for specific space and layout will be handled as part of any building permit application. Evaluations and consultations will be done in cooperation with the County Building Official/inspector and associated staff. I hope this information addresses all your comments from March 21, 2018. Please contact me if you have questions or wish to discuss these items further. Sincerely, Mark Chain, Planner UPDATED SIGNATURE PAGES PROJECT DESCRIPTION .

Background: Applicants request a change to add commercial use to the water rights already decreed to the Cedar Ridge Farm Subdivision Well Nos. 1-5 and 7. Those wells, together with Cedar Ridge Farm Subdivision Well No. 6, are already covered by an augmentation plan approved in Case No. 81CW497. The addition of commercial use will not increase depletions beyond those addressed in the existing augmentation plan. However, because commercial use was not approved in that plan, Applicants request to amend it to cover commercial use. Pamela A. Johnson and Randall L.

Johnson - Application for Change of Water Rights, Supplemental Plan of Augmentation, and Appropriative Right of Exchange- Division 5 Page 3 of 6 (5) Appropriation date: December 28, 1981, for all wells. (6) Amount: 15 gallons per minute (“g.p.m.”) for Cedar Ridge Farm Subdivision Well Nos 1-5 and 30 g.p.m. for Cedar Ridge Farm Subdivision Well No. 7. (7) Uses: Domestic, non-commercial lawn and garden irrigation, stock watering, and standby fire protection. (8) Amount that applicants intend to change: Applicants request to change the full decreed amount for Well Nos. 1-5 and No. 7 to include commercial use as described below. B. Description of change: Applicants request to change the water rights in Well Nos. 1-5 and No. 7 to add commercial use to existing decreed uses. C. Name and address of owners of land on which structures or places of use are located: Applicants 4. Request for approval of amendment to plan for augmentation: A. Name of structures to be augmented: Cedar Ridge Farm Subdivision Well Nos. 1-5 and 7. (The requested amendment does not modify the existing augmentation plan as it applies to Cedar Ridge Farm Subdivision Well No. 6.) (1) Case No.: 81CW497 (2) Information regarding location, appropriation date, amount, and use from decree: See paragraph 3, above. B. Water rights to be used for augmentation: The water rights to be used for augmentation under this amendment to the plan for augmentation approved in Case No. 81CW497 are identical to the rights set out in that case, namely 0.9 acre-feet (“a.f.”) of excess augmentation water decreed in Case No. 79CW97 and 1.0 a.f. per year of Ruedi Reservoir water acquired by Applicants from the Basalt Water Conservancy District. C. Statement of plan for augmentation: The plan for augmentation approved in Case No. 81CW497 addressed consumptive use of 1.26 a.f. per year related to domestic use, including lawn and garden irrigation, stock watering, and fire protection. The change of use requested in paragraph three, above, adds commercial uses, including overnight lodging in tents or yurts, artist/craftsman studios, a community meeting center, and facility workshops or seminars. The uses under this plan include the original uses approved in Case No. 81CW497 as well as the changed uses in this case. Those combined uses will result in diversions of 2.94 Pamela A. Johnson and Randall L. Johnson - Application for Change of Water Rights, Supplemental Plan of Augmentation, and Appropriative Right of Exchange- Division 5 Page 4 of 6 a.f. per year and depletions of 0.10 a.f. per month, or 1.24 per year. A detailed monthly summary of those depletions is set out in the attached Exhibit 2. A table setting out lagged depletions is attached as Exhibit 3. The new plan for water use results in a lower annual depletion. The excess augmentation water approved in Case No. 79CW97 is sufficient to offset out-of- priority depletions in time and amount on Cattle Creek, with the remaining non- irrigation season depletions being addressed through releases of augmentation water pursuant to Applicants’ contract with the Basalt Water Conservancy District. 5. Request for approval of conditional appropriative right of exchange: A. Name of exchange: Cedar Ridge Farm Exchange B. Location of exchange reach: From the confluence of the Roaring Fork River with the Colorado River up to the point of depletion on Cattle Creek in the NW/4 SW/4, Section 12, Township 7 South, Range 88 West, Sixth P.M. A map showing the Cedar Ridge Farm Exchange reach is attached as Exhibit 4. (1) The lower termini include: a. Confluence of the Colorado River and the Roaring Fork River, which is currently located in the SE¼ of the NW¼ of Section 9, Township 6 South, Range 89 West of the 6th P.M., at a point approximately 2200 feet from the North section line and 2350 feet from the West section line of said Section 9 (UTM X = 299765, UTM Y = 4380329). b. Confluence of the Roaring Fork River and Cattle Creek, which is currently located in the NE¼ of the NE¼ of Section 12, Township 7 South, Range 89 West, in the 6th P.M. at a point 1,175 feet from the north section line, and 860 feet from the east section line of said Section 12 (UTM X = 304641.66, UTM Y = 4370636.95). (2) The upper termini is described as follows: The point of depletion on Cattle Creek located in the NW1/4 SW1/4 of Section 12, Township 7 South, Range 88 West of the 6th P.M., at a point 1,855 feet from the south section line and 1,136 feet from the west section line of said Section 12 (UTM X = 312817.76, UTM Y = 4370055.26). C. Date of appropriation and how initiated: August 25, 2017, by retaining legal counsel and hydrologist to develop water plan and preparing necessary water court application. Pamela A. Johnson and Randall L. Johnson - Application for Change of Water Rights, Supplemental Plan of Augmentation, and Appropriative Right of Exchange- Division 5 Page 5 of 6 D. Amount: 0.0002 c.f.s. (based on the maximum monthly stream depletion during the non-irrigation season occurring in November) E. Description of exchange: The Cedar Ridge Farm Exchange will operate during the non-irrigation season to exchange reservoir releases from reservoirs on the Roaring Fork River up Cattle Creek to the uppermost point of depletion or to exchange reservoir releases from reservoirs on the Colorado River upstream on the Roaring Fork River, then up Cattle Creek to the uppermost point of depletion. Note: Applicant believes that the plan for augmentation decreed in Case No. 81CW497 included an exchange that was sufficient to address the depletions described in that case. However, if the Court should conclude that the exchange in Case No. 81CW497 is not legally sufficient to be utilized for the changed uses and plan for augmentation sought in that case, Applicants request approval of a conditional appropriative right of exchange for those purposes.

Exchange Reaches Cattle Creek Exchange Colorado River Exchange From: Rob Pierce Sent: Monday, April 23, 2018 11:25 AM To: 'kcave@garfield-county.com' <kca ve@garfield -county.com > Subject: Update regarding SWSP request for Randy and Pamela Johnson Kelly, It was nice talking with you . As we discussed, the application for the Substitute Water Supply Plan ("SWSP") was submitted to the Division of Water Resource on March 26, 2018. Any parties wishing to comment on the application must do so before April 25th. The Division Water Resources will review any comments it receives and either approve the SWSP with additional terms and conditions included to address concerns set out in such comments, forward the comments to my office so that I can respond with additional information, or simply approve the SWSP. The SWSP process is designed to be streamlined -there typically isn't much back-and -forth between the applicant and those offering comments. The person at the Division of Water Resources that will oversee the review of the SWSP request is Megan Sullivan, the Division of Water Resources Team Leader for Divisions 4, 5, and 6. I spoke with her last week and she informed me that she had already reviewed the SWSP request, as well as the related water court application, and her initial assessment was that the request did not seem controversial from a water rights standpoint. Due to the tight timelines in this case, Ms. Sullivan has offered to fast-track the SWSP request once the comment period ends. I am hopeful that we will have the approval in hand within the next 30 days. By statute, an SWSP such as this can be approved annually for a three year period, more or less as a matter of course. Extension beyond three years can be granted by the Division of Water Resources upon a showing that the delay in the water court case is justifiable. Extension beyond five years can be granted by leave of the water court. As you are aware, a number of statements of opposition have been filed in the Johnson's water court case. Based on the engineering report prepared by Resource Engineering before the Johnson's water court application was filed, we are confident that we can address the concerns of the opposers. As you are aware, the water court case does not seek to increase the amount of water pumped under the decree for the wells on the Johnson property, nor does it increase the depletions beyond that covered by the existing augmentation plan . In essence, the entire water court case is merely seeking to add the word "commercial" to the uses approved for the wells. Downstream water uses should not see any physical change. I hope that information is helpful. Please feel free to contact me if I can be of any more assistance . Sincerely, Rob ...
