apron at the driveway access along with pavement on the first approximately 200 ft. of

III. STAFF REVIEW AND ANALYSIS
1. Public notice required for the Location and Extent Review included publication,
posting, and certified mailing to property owners within 200 ft. and mineral right owners.
No public comments have been received at this time.
2. The Garfield County Comprehensive Plan 2030 designates the site Residential
Medium High (RMH). lt is also located within the Town of Carbondale Urban Area of
lnfluence. Excerpts from the Comprehensive Plan are outlined below in italics with staff
analysis shown in bold. An excerpt from the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map
is also provided.
Chapter 3 Urban Growth Areas and lntergovernmental Coordination
Issue No. 3: Ensure that county land use policies and development approvals are
compatible with the existing zoning and future land use objectives of the appropriate
municipality.
3
Strategies/Actions No. 7: Work cooperatively within the region on issues that transcend
political boundaries such as housing, transit and economic development.
The proposal is presented by the Town of Carbondale and is an upgrade to an
existing facility that is an important amenity for the residents of Carbondale and
Garfield Gounty.
The Rodeo Grounds are noted in the Carbondale Comprehensive Plan in the Parks
and Open Space Chapter (4.13) under the inventory of existing open space (Table
4.35) and under planned improvements (Table 4.37). The plan includes "Gus Darien
Riding Arena lmprovements and Expansion"
Chapter 3 Section 3 Transporiation
Goal No. 2: Support public transit seruices as well as alternative modes of
transportation, when and where feasíble.
The riding arena is primarily accessed by vehicles and the site plan provides
significant areas for parking. The site is also accessible by bicycle or by foot via
the Rio Grande Trail which is located on the south side of County Road 100. The
Town should continue to promote alternate modes of transportation for access to
the facility. The current operation plans include traffic control at the County Road
crossing for pedestrian and bicyclist safety during special events.

The proposed structural improvements will not increase the capacity of the facility
and will not in themselves generate additional traffic.
Chapter 3 Section 4 - Economics, Employment and Tourism
lssue No. 6: The growth of tourism in Gartied County continues to diversity the county
economy. Tourism based commercial activities are an important part of the commercial
economic sector, and tourism based employment provides jobs for Garfield County
residents.
The Townns rodeo facility is an important local amenity and a draw for tourists. The
proposed structure will improve. the quality of the spectator's experience.
Chapter 3 Section 5 Recreation, Open Space and Trails
Goal No. 3: Provide opportunities for the tourism industry to utilize recreational resources
as well as to preserue recreation resources for local access.
The Town's rodeo facility is an existing recreational resource and the proposed
improvements will enhance the quality of the facility and its operational
infrastructure. The facility is extensively utilized for Iocal events.

Chapter 3 Section 6 Agriculture
Issue No. 2: Agrículture is strongly associated with the western heritage and rural impact
of the unincorporated areas of the county.
The Town's rodeo events are a significant way to support, educate about, and enjoy
the County's western heritage and rural character. The facility provides a venue
for events that is not generally available elsewhere on the eastern end of the
County.
Chapter 3 Section 7 Water and Sewer Services
Goal No. 1: Ensure the provision of legal, adequate, dependable, cost-effective and
environmentally sound sewer and water seruices for new development.
The water and sanitation provisions at the rodeo facility are typical of this type of
rural event center. Provision of portable toilets for special events should be
carefully monitored by the Town to ensure that adequate numbers are provided.
The existing permanent toilets are served by an onsite waste water treatment
system that should be proactively managed with scheduled maintenance and
pumping. Water is provided onsite from an existing well and can be supported by
bottled drinking water for special events.

Hello Glenn,
After review of the Carbondale Rodeo Grounds Extend and Location permit application, I have
limited comments. lt does not appear that these modifications will pose any environmental
health issues. A few things the applicant should note:
1. The onsite wastewater treatment system (OWTS) should be regularly inspected and
maintained, as the applicant has indicated they already do. Maximum flows should be
monitored to ensure the system is not overwhelmed during larger events.
2. Regular testing of the drinking,water should occur to ensure it is meeting regulations and
is of high quality, and treatment should be installed if necessary.
3. Dirt parking lots and roads surrounding the property should be sprayed with water as
needed if dust emissions from the site become an issue. Our office has not received
any complaints about this from neighboring homes, so I am assuming it has not been a
problem to date.
4. Animal refuse that could contain E. coli or nitrates should be properly disposed of for
protection of ground and surface water in the area.
We are supportive of the Carbondale rodeo as an economic and recreational attraction for the
community and want to see it be a safe and enjoyable venue.
Please feel free to óontact me with questions.
Thank you,
