1. Purpose & Enforcement
1.1. Purpose of the PUD Guide; Amendment
The primary purpose of this PUD Guide is to set forth a comprehensive framework of standards,
restrictions and regulations which govern development and land use within the McClure River Ranch
PUD. This PUD Guide will promote the orderly and compatible development of the property, while
remaining somewhat flexible to allow for market changes and design innovations as the
development progresses through its operational life cycle. This PUD Guide supersedes the Garfield
County Land Use and Development Code (LUDC) with site specific regulations that are more
appropriate to the design goals and objectives of lands contained within this PUD. This PUD Guide is
authorized pursuant to Garfield County Resolution No. , dated
approving the PUD Amendment for the McClure River Ranch PUD. The
parameters of this PUD Guide for the McClure River Ranch have been established and approved by
the Garfield County Board of County Commissioners pursuant to and in compliance with all notice,
hearing and procedural requirements of state law and the LUDC.
1.2. Modifications to this PUD Guide
Upon application by the Developer, the DRB (defined in Section 6) or a landowner, the PUD Guide
may be amended from time to time, but only with the approval of the DRB, if necessary under
Section 6 below, and Garfield County. Prior to applying to the County for amendment to the PUD
Guide, an applicant shall, if necessary under Section 6, obtain written approval for the amendment
from the DRB. Applications for amendment to the PUD Guide shall be reviewed by the County as
either a Minor Amendment or Substantial Amendment as described below. The Community
Development Director shall make the final determination regarding which review process shall be
appropriate for the particular application.
1.2.1. Minor Amendments
1.2.1.1. Minor Amendments are specific changes to the PUD Guide that do not
significantly alter the overall design concept, character and intent of the PUD.
Minor amendments include but are not limited to: minor changes in internal
road alignments; building envelopes; parcel boundaries; trails; easements;
landscaping; and land uses that do not alter the overall character of the PUD.
Text changes to this document that are intended to provide clarity, correct
conflicts, or that consider prior oversights shall also be considered Minor
Amendments.
1.2.1.2. Minor Amendments shall be processed under the authority of the Garfield
County Community Development Director. The Director may approve a Minor
Amendment if it is found to be generally consistent with the overall character
McClure River Ranch
5 PUD Guide — October 2019
and intent of the PUD and to not negatively impact adjacent properties or land
uses.
1.2.2. Substantial Amendments
1.2.2.1. Substantial Amendments are specific changes to the PUD that, as reasonably
determined by the Community Development Director, significantly alter the
overall design concept, character and intent of the PUD. Substantial
Amendments include but are not limited to major changes in: road alignments;
connections to external roads; parcel locations; and land uses.
1.2.2.2. Substantial Amendments shall be processed as a Substantial PUD Amendment
per Article 6 of the LUDC, as it may be amended from time to time. Appeals of
any decision made by Garfield County in connection with a request for a
Substantial Amendment of the PUD shall be subject to the applicable provisions
of Colorado law.
1.3. Enforcement of the PUD Guide
The provisions of this PUD Guide are enforceable by the authority and powers of Garfield County, as
granted by law. Enforcement action shall be consistent with the authority and actions defined in the
LUDC, as amended. All provisions of this PUD Guide shall run in favor of the residents, occupants
and owners of land within the McClure River Ranch PUD, to the extent expressly provided in this
PUD Guide and in accordance with its terms and conditions. Where the PUD Guide is silent, the
specific provisions of the LUDC, as may be amended from time to time, shall prevail. Residents and
owners of property within the PUD hereby expressly authorize and agree to the procedures
described in this PUD Guide for amendments, modifications, removal or release of any of the
provisions of the PUD Guide and, further, expressly waive any right to enforce the provisions of the
PUD Guide pursuant to § 24-67-106, C.R.S., to the extent that the PUD Guide has been amended,
modified, removed or released in accordance with the procedures set forth herein; provided,
however, the County and residents and owners within the McClure River Ranch shall have the right
to enforce the provisions of the PUD Guide from time to time as the same may be amended.
