RE: Completeness Review Gianinetti Community Mtg. Facility(GAPA-02-18—8608)
Gianinetti Lodging Facility (LIPA-02-18-8614)
Dear Glenn: Below please find my responses to your letter of March 22, 2018.
1. Change in ownership to LLLP. The application forms have been updated to
reflect the ownership as an LLLP.
2. A statement of authority has been signed and recorded. Find recorded document
attached.
3. Site plan - updated to indicate Cowen Drive. The right-of-way has been
relabeled to show Cowen Drive. In addition, the property boundary has been
clarified to show that the Gianinetti property has legal access directly from that
public right-of-way – which is a Town of Carbondale right-of-way. Note: a portion
of the site directly adjacent to Cowen Drive was once annexed into the town and
part of the Gianinetti subdivision. This area was de-annexed in the early 1990s.
The site plan is being provided under separate cover.
4. Mineral rights. The property owners (LLLP) own all mineral rights associated with
the property. I search records at the Garfield County Clerk and Recorder’s office
on March 29. Previous owners, Ben and Alphonsine Gianinetti assigned 3 oil and
gas leases over time. These did not produce within the defined time period of the
lease and were not assigned to other persons or entities.
Ben and Alphonsine deeded the property to Ernest and Carol Gianinetti in 1961
(deed recorded at Book 333, Page 504). They reserved one half interest in oil,
gas and other minerals. Ben and Alphonsine never assigned these mineral
rights. Documentation was provided as part of a Petition for Abatement (BOCC

Resolution # 96-013) that the grantors (Ben and Alphonsine) are deceased and
that the mineral interests are no longer severed. Resolution attached.
5. Property owners within 200 feet. We have double checked the list of adjacent
property owners and generated a new list. Attached. We will also check for
changes mailing any public notices.
6. Complete Water Supply Plan. A private well will be drilled in order to provide
water for both the Event/Meeting area as well as the Lodging/Guest ranch. We
will order pump testing and water quality testing as a condition of approval.
Therefore, we are submitting a waiver request per Section 4 – 202. 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 owner’s request that pump testing and water quality
testing be proposed as a condition of approval. The well has not yet been
dug. The Giannetties own numerous wells in the area may have had no
trouble obtaining water. The Roaring Fork River bottom land has plentiful
groundwater.
2. The project size, complexity, anticipated impacts, or other factors
support a waiver;
Response: the size of the proposed project is consistent with
rural/agricultural uses in the area. It would appear that there would be no
negative impacts associated with drilling another 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.
4. The information is not material to describing the proposal or
demonstrating compliance with approval criteria.

The Gianinetti Family LLLP
644 Cowen Drive
Carbondale CO 81623
RE: Spring Creek Ranch Event Center
Auxiliary Turn Lane Requirements Evaluation
Proj. No. 12021.01
Dear Tanner,
Per our understanding the Gianinetti family wants to expand the Event Centers operation period from the
limited 30 weekends per year to where the Center would be allowed to operate any day of the year, year
round. The following traffic study was completed to determine if auxiliary turn lane improvements would
be required at the Cowen Drive entrance for the Spring Creek Ranch Event Centers.
Since 2018, Spring Creek Guest Ranch Event Center operates, as permitted by Garfield County, 30
weekends per year. These events include mostly weddings, private gathers and business
meetings/banquets. A traffic study was completed for these weekend events and is included in an
“Engineering Report Gianinetti Spring Creek Ranch” on February 15, 2018, by Boundaries Unlimited Inc.
Cowen Drive’s entrance to Spring Creek Ranch is located in northern Carbondale approximately 260 feet
southeast along Cowen Drive (Changes to N. 8th Street in this section) from the Latigo Loop intersection
(See attached Map). Cowen Drive/ N. 8th Street is a local collector street connecting between the North of
end of Carbondale on HWY 133 to Carbondale’s Downtown Main Street.
Event Centers Week Day Generated Traffic
The closets similar event found in the ITE Trip Generation Manual, 10th Ed. Sept. 2017 for business
meetings, seminars, and community gatherings with short arrival and departure times is a Sunday Church
Service event. Two studies shown on Page 208 of Volume 2, (Land Use 560) provide the following
information:
- Avg No. of Seats: 750
- Avg Person Trip Rate Generation per Seat: 0.53
- Directional Distribution: 50% Entering, 50% exiting
- “Estimated” Generated Traffic northbound/southbound ratio: NB 20% / SB 80%
This analysis is based on the Event Centers maximum capacity of 200 persons (seats).
- Peak Hourly Gen. Traffic
- 200 Per. X 0.53 Trip Rate X 50% Dir. Distr.
- 53 Vehicles Entering or Exiting per Event
- 20% North Bound = 11 NB Vehicles
- 80% South Bound = 43 SB Vehicles
-
The owner believes most weekday events seating projections will be for 120 persons or less occurring
between the hours of 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM.
Week Day Traffic Counts
Recent Cowen Drive traffic counts were tabulated from the Event Centers Entrance on the following week
days: Wednesday May 29, Tuesday July 16, Friday July 19 and Wednesday, July 24.
The Hourly Traffic Counts for each of the four weekdays for both North Bound and South Bound Traffic
are shown in the following two charts.
The Average Hourly Traffic of the four days of traffic count, charted above for each direction is shown in
the following chart.
Auxiliary Turn Lane Requirements
The following traffic analysis addresses auxiliary turn lane requirements for the additional traffic
generated from the Event Centers proposed weekday usage. The evaluations of the Event Center ’s four (4)
auxiliary turn lane types (right & left turn deceleration lanes and the right & left turn acceleration lanes)
are based on the turn lane thresholds specified in the CDOT State Highway Access Code - Rule 2 CCR
601-1, Section 3.5 (5) (Pages 32 & 33). Also note that Cowen Drive’s posted Speed Limit is 20 MPH in
both directions.
- The right turn deceleration lane (for entering the Event Center from the south) may be dropped if the
volume in the travel lane (northbound traffic plus the northbound generated volume) is predicted to be
below 150 DHV (design hourly volume). 63 + 11 = 74 Veh/Hour is less than 150 DHV. Therefore
no right turn deceleration lane is warranted.
- The left turn deceleration lane (for entering the Event Center from the north) may be dropped if the
opposing north bound traffic plus the generated volume is predicted to be below 100 DHV. 63 + 11 =
74 Veh/Hour is less than 100 DHV. Therefore no left turn deceleration lane is warranted.
- The left turn acceleration lane (for traffic leaving the Event Center heading south) may be dropped if
the volume in the southbound lane is predicted to be below 120 DHV. 93 veh/hr is less than 120
DHV. Therefore no left turn acceleration lane is warranted.
- The right turn acceleration lane (for traffic leaving the Event Center heading North) may be dropped
if the volume in the adjacent northbound lane is predicted to be below 120 DHV. 63 veh/hr is less
than 120 DHV. Therefore no right turn acceleration lane is warranted.
Therefore, auxiliary turn lanes are not warranted on Cowen Drive for Gianinetti Spring Creek Guest
Ranch Event Centers predicted weekday generated traffic.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions or additional information.
