DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSAL AND BACKGROUND The Applicant has submitted a request for approval of a Basic Correction Exemption to recognize the existing 1.68-acre lot. The applicant's property was created by deed in 1992 and the creation was not reviewed by Garfield County. This is technically considered an illegal subdivision and the applicant has submitted this application to address the issue. The Basic Correction Exemption process was incorporated into the County Land Use and Development Code to address these types of historic and exceptional situations. The parcel is improved with a fire station that the applicant is planning to expand. This expansion was recently approved by the Planning Commission via a Location and Extent review. Water and wastewater utilities are supplied via a connection to the H Lazy F Manufactured Home Park facility adjacent to the fire station. Electric service is in place to serve the existing station. Access is via a shared private road that connects to County Road 154. VICNITY MAP Subject Lot Highway 82 II. DESCRIPTION OF THE SITE The property is relatively level and improved with the existing fire station and an out structure used as a pump house and mailbox for the adjacent manufactured home park. An irrigation ditch is located along the northwest boundary of the property but is not located on the subject parcel. The current fire station was issued a Building Permit in 1992 and again in 2005. The Location and Extent for the fire station expansion was approved this year. 2 AERIAL PHOTO OF SITE Fire Station Crew Quarters III.

The strict application of the regulation would result in peculiar and exceptional, practical difficulties to, or exceptional and undue hardship on, the owner of the property; The technical determination that the properties are part of an illegal subdivision creates exceptionat difficulties for the property owners. lt limits the ability to apply for Building 5 Permits and makes it extremely difficult to sellthe properfy in the future 8.

Section 7-403 Survev Monuments The Final Plat was reviewed by the County Surveyor and no issues were identified Section 7 -404 School Land Dedi cation While a School Land Dedication was not obtained when the lot was created, the unique nature of the use shows that the existing fire station will not add additional school children to the local district.

CO: CGS Unique No. GA-20-0007 Dear Mr. Waller: Colorado Geological Survey has reviewed the Carbondale & Rural Fire Protection District Basic Correction Exemption referral. I understand the applicant proposes to legalize a parcel (physical address 5449 CF.l54, Glenwood Springs) created outside the county subdivision process. The parcel contains C&RFPD's Station 84 West End Station. Future plans appear to include new apparatus bays and expanded vehicular circulation. CGS has no objection to approval of the basic correction exemption as proposed. However: Sinkholes and ground subsidence. The site is underlain by Eagle Valley Evaporite with a surface veneer of terrace alluvium (relatively granular river deposits). The terrace alluvium is not considered problematic from a geotechnical, or bearing strength and foundation performance perspective. However, the underlying evaporite contains layers, lenses and pockets of water-soluble gypsum, anhydrite and halite (rock salts). Near-surface underground voids may be present but have not yet breached the surface to become visible sinkholes. Sinkholes, subsidence, and ground deformation due to collapse of solution cavities and voids are active, although infrequent, geologic processes within the Roaring Fork Valley. Ground subsidence is an unpredictable risk that should not be ignored. The applicant should be advised ofthe subsidence hazard potential, since early detection ofbuilding distress and timely remedial actions are important factors in reducing damage and the cost of building repairs should an undetected subsurface void start to develop into a sinkhole. Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment on this project. If you have questions or need further review, please call me at (303) 384'2643, or email carlson@mines.edu. Jill Carlson, C.E.G.
