HomeMy WebLinkAbout1.00 Application1 PROJECT NARRATIVE March 10, 2021 This application is to request a Minor Subdivision to divide a 41.404 acres parcel into three lots: a 10.041 acres lot, a 10.275 acres lot, and a 21.085 acres lot. The property is currently known by Assessor’s Parcel Number 217916103004. It is located at the intersection of County Road 346 and County Road 331 and is zoned Rural. Lot 1 will have driveway access from County Road 346, Lot 2 will have driveway access from County Road 331, and Lot 3 has an existing Garfield County Road & Bridge approved and permitted (Permit #GRB20-D-11) direct access drive from County Road 331. A copy of the proposed Ruiz South Minor Subdivision Plat is attached. ARTICLE 7 - DIVISION 1: GENERAL APPROVAL STANDARDS Section 7.101: Zone District Use Regulations The subject property is currently zoned Rural and the proposed minor subdivision will not change this. Section 7.102: Comprehensive Plan and Intergovernmental Agreements The Comprehensive Plan includes relatively few policies which provide direct guidance with respect to the proposed subdivision. The Future Land Use Chapter of the Comprehensive Plan establishes the broad land use and density for future development within the County. The proposed subdivision in in conformance with the applicable zone district: Rural, minimum lot size 2 acres, with the proposed lot sizes as follows: Lot 1: 10.041 acres, Lot 2: 10.275 acres, and Lot 3: 21.085 acres, which are all well above the minimum lot size allowed. The subject property is not located within any unincorporated community, nor within a water and sewer service area, nor is there any regional center, town center, rural employment center or village center mapped in the area where the subject property is located. The County desires to retain the rural character of the area and the proposed subdivision would provide that with the creation of a mere two additional lots, in which agricultural and grazing uses can remain. As far as recreation, open space, and trails, the subject property is not bordered by any streams or rivers where fishing or rafting may occur. No significant visual impact is expected with the creation of two additional lots. The proposed subdivision will comply with the designated Rural Zoning District, which allows residential lots with a minimum lot area of two acres. The proposed lot sizes would allow for continued agricultural and grazing uses, with minimal impact on adjacent agricultural operations. Section 7.103: Compatibility The surrounding properties are zoned rural with a mix of Rural Residential and Agriculture/Grazing Land Use. There are two properties directly adjacent to the subject property, both between 35 and 36 aces, two properties to the East, separated by County Road 331, ranging in size from 1.62 acres to 253.76 acres, and two properties to the North with an approximate size of 36 and 37 acres. The proposed land use will change from Agriculture and Grazing to Residential Medium High (1 du per 2 - <6 acres), whereas the zoning will remain Rural, protecting the existing character of the area. The proposed lot 2 sizes are much larger than the minimum two acres required for this designation, and will allow for small scale agriculture and grazing to continue. Section 7.104: Source of Water The owners have obtained contracts for water from West Divide Water Conservancy District. Lot 3 has an approved well permit. Please refer to item #12 on USB flash drive. Section 7.105: Central Water Distribution and Wastewater Systems There will be no central water distribution as each lot will have its own well, please see attached contracts from the West Divide Water Conservancy District referencing an adequate water supply. Furthermore, each lot will have its own separate OWTS. An attached preliminary soil evaluation for future OWTS for the proposed Ruiz South Minor Subdivision provided by High Country Engineering, Inc., of Glenwood Springs indicates the ground is capable of handling a new system on each proposed lot. All septic systems will be engineered by a qualified professional. Section 7.106: Public Utilities There are existing power lines running through the property and a 30’ utility easement has been created with this Plat. Underground electricity service lines will be brought from the existing poles to each dwelling. Holy Cross Will-Serve letter included. All easements are noted on Final Plat. Section 7.107: Access and Roadways Each lot will have its own legal entrance and Lots 1 will have direct access to County Road 346; Lots 2 and 3 will have direct access to County Road 331. Per attached letter from Wyatt Keesbery of Garfield County Road and Bridge, there is adequate space for safe access to the both County Road 331 and County Road 331. Lot 3 already has an approved access. There will be no public roadways within the subdivision and no roads proposed, only private driveways to future single family dwellings and allowed accessory buildings. Section 7.108: Use of Land Subject to Natural Hazards The subject land does not have the following natural and geologic hazards: falling rock, landslides, snow slides, mud flows, radiation, nor flooding. Please see attached subsoil tests, from Kumar & Associates, Inc., completed 11/20/2020. Section 7.109: Fire Protection The subject property is located within the Colorado River Fire Rescue District and is not adjacent nor surrounded by forests. The owners have made contact with the County Fire Chief and were told the County will send appropriate documentation to the CRFR District for review. ARTICLE 7 – DIVISION 2: GENERAL RESOURCE PROTECTION STANDARDS Section 7.201: Agricultural Lands The subject land is adjacent to two properties, one to the West and the other to the South, of approximately 36 acres each with no existing structures and minimal agriculture and grazing activities. The two adjacent properties to the North each have a single family dwelling on parcels ranging from 35.88 acres to 37.42 acres. There are two properties to the East, including a farming operation with structures under construction, and a 10.62 acres parcel that is part of the Mineota Ridge Subdivision that has no structures. The proposed subdivision will result in two additional parcels, whose lot sizes will 3 be adequate for the existing land use of agriculture and grazing. The proposed subdivision will have no adverse effect on any nearby agriculture or grazing use. There are currently no large-scale livestock and herding activities occurring which might be disrupted by domestic animals. Fences will be built to protect adjoining agricultural lands and livestock. The proposed lots will not have roads, only driveways. E.1: The owners of the subject property have water rights per the attached Quitclaim Deed, Water Rights Transfer, and will honor and respect the right of any water rights owners to access the ditch within the subject property for the purpose of transporting water for beneficial use in accordance with said water right or conditional water right. Once the subject property is subdivided, the water rights will remain with the owners, Samuel Ruiz and Esau Ruiz. E.2: The owners of the subject property understand that the Colorado Constitution Article XVI, Section 7 provides that all persons and corporations shall have the right-of-way across public, private and corporate lands for the construction of ditches for the purposes of conveying water for domestic, agricultural, mining, manufacturing and drainage purposes upon just compensation. E.3: The land use change will not interfere with the ditch rights-of-way. E.4: The owners of the proposed subdivision will insure that the use of ditches, including maintenance, can continue uninterrupted where irrigation ditches cross or adjoin the land proposed to be developed. E.5: The owners of the subject property are responsible for maintaining the portion of the ditch that’s on subject property. E.6: The applicants have no need for a ditch crossing, this item does not apply to the proposed subdivision. E.7: The Application for Division of Land or Land Use Change Permit will not affect or impact any ditch right-of-way. E.8: The proposed subdivision will not have an impact on the adjacent ditch as no improvements, structures, or roads will be built near it, and the subject property is not below grade of the irrigation ditch. E.9: The Applicants understand that no development or changes in land use shall channel surface waters into any irrigation ditch without the written consent of the ditch owner. Section 7.202: Wildlife Habitat Areas The subject property is within the following wildlife habitats: • Mule deer winter range, sever winter range, and winter concentration area • Elk highway crossing zone, winter range, and winter concentration area • Mountain lion human contact area • Black bear overall range • Bald eagle winter range, winter forage, and summer forage • Bald eagle nest within one mile of property The residents of each lot will take the necessary steps to ease the impact on wildlife and seek to be wildlife friendly, including installing wildlife-friendly fencing, as referenced on the CPW’s website. Residents will take note of toxic and dangerous plants that should be avoided when it comes time to landscape their respective lots and take care to follow recommendations of the CPW. Section 7.203: Protection of Waterbodies The subject property is not located near any waterbodies, per the definition of a waterbody in the Garfield County Land Use and Development Code, Article 15: Definitions. Section 7.204: Drainage and Erosion There are no drainage and erosion problems on the subject property. 4 Section 7.205: Environmental Quality Air quality levels will not be reduced below acceptable levels with the creation of this minor subdivision.

GENERAL PROJECT DESCRIPTION The property owners desire to subdivide the 41.4 acre parcel into three residential lots. A draft plat was presented to the staff at the Pre-App Conference. The proposed minor subdivision would create lots of 10 acres, 10.2 acres and 21 acres in size. The parcels are located south of the Town of Silt at the southwest corner of the intersection of County Roads 346 and 331. The property is currently used for agricultural uses. The parcels are located within the Rural zone district. The minimum lot size in the Rural district is two acres. The proposed lot sizes exceed this minimum size requirement. The proposed lot line configuration does not appear, based upon the information provided on the plat, to create non- conforming conditions for setbacks or other Rural zone district standards. Easements for existing gas pipeline, water pipeline and an irrigation ditch are located on the property. Staff anticipates that the new lots will be served by individual well and septic systems. Which may require contracts with the West Divide Water Conservancy District. The County’s Land Use & 2 Development Code (LUDC) requires a subdivision to demonstrate legal and adequate water for each lot. Permit documentation for these systems should be submitted with the application. It appears that ditches not within easements may also be located on property. These ditches will require easements. Please note the requirements in Article 7 that relate to protection of agricultural lands and ditches, Division 2, 7-201 of the LU&DC It is anticipated that each lot will be served by individual driveways. All driveways will need to conform to the standards and requirements defined in Section 7-107 of the LU&DC. All existing and future public utilities should be contained with an easement. The LU&DC requires that utilities are to be underground for new Subdivision proposals. The applicant’s Surveyors should ensure that the required Certificates, notes and plat language conform to that prescribed by the County for the necessary signatures. The plat will need to include all information as described in Section 5-402(F), including the name and addresses of the surface owners and mineral estate owners. The applicant will also need to submit a title commitment for the subject property and ensure that the plat states that all easements and encumbrances identified in the commitment are accurately shown on the plat. Proof of ownership in the form of a recent title report is required to process the application. All property owners, per County assessor records, will need to sign the application and provide a letter of authorization for anyone serving as the applicant’s representative. Any existing or proposed (draft) Codes Covenants or Restrictions (CCR’s) that affect the subject property should be submitted with the application. The LU&DC also requires an engineer’s report for: (A) Roads, Trails, Walkways and Bikeways; (C) Sewage Collection and Water Supply and Distribution System; (E) Groundwater Drainage and (H) Preliminary Cost Estimates for Improvements.

Box 389 Silt, CO 81652 PREPARED BY: High Country Engineering, Inc. 1517 Blake Avenue, Suite. 101 Glenwood Springs, CO 81601 (970) 945-8676 March 18, 2020 HCE Project No. 2201012.00 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS SECTION PAGE INTRODUCTION 3 LOCATION 3 CURRENT SITE CONDITIONS 3 PROPOSED SITE CONDITIONS 3 PRELIMINARY SOILS EVALUATION 3 CONCLUSION 4 REFERENCES 4 CERTIFICATION 5 FIGURES: Figure 1 – Vicinity Map Figure 2 – Soils Map 3 INTRODUCTION This preliminary soils evaluation analysis addresses the suitability of the native soils for future construction of Onsite Wastewater Treatment System (OWTS) at the site. LOCATION The site is approximately 1 mile south of the Town of Silt Colorado. The site is identified is parcel 217916103004 by the Garfield County Assessor’s Office. The site is situated at the southwest corner of the intersection of County Road 346, and County Road 331. Refer to Figure 1 for the Vicinity Map. CURRENT SITE CONDITIONS The site is within a portion of Parcel 1 of the Dixon Water Foundation Subdivision Exemption No. 1. The site has an area of approximately 40.405 acres. The site is currently undeveloped, and appears to be used primarily for agricultural purposes. The site slopes mildly downward from north to south. According to the Soil Survey of Rifle Area, Parts of Garfield and Mesa Counties, surface soils where the septic systems are to constructed are named as Arvada Loam, and sub-surface soil horizons of silty clay loam. PROPOSED SITE CONDITIONS The Applicant intends to subdivide the site into three (3) residential lots via the Minor Subdivision process. The proposed residential lots are to be served by water wells and Onsite Wastewater Treatment Systems (OWTS). The proposed OWTS are treat residential sewage to Treatment Level 1 (TL1) as established by the Colorado Department of Health and Environment. PRELIMINARY SOILS EVLUATION As required by State Regulation 43, the applicant had excavated six (6) profile test pits having depths of 8 to 9 feet deep. High Country Engineering Inc. (HCE) visited the site and evaluated the excavated soil horizons within the profile test pits. HCE verified that no ground water, no bedrock, no limiting layers were visible within the excavated profile test pits. As required by State Regulation 43, HCE collected soil samples at each of the proposed residential lots. HCE performed Visual and Tactile evaluation of the soils, as established by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the National Resource Conservation Service. The results of the Visual and Tactile evaluation are summarized to Table 1 below: 4 Table 1: Proposed Lot Number USDA Soil T ype USDA Soil Texture TL1 Long Term Acceptance Rate (gal. / day /sq. ft.) 1 3A Silty Clay Loam 0.30 2 3A Silty Clay Loam 0.30 3 3A Silty Clay Loam 0.30 Additionally HCE also dug percolation test holes and performed percolation tests at each of the proposed residential lots. The results of the Percolation Tests are summarized to Table 2 below: Table 2 Proposed Lot Number Percolation Rate (minutes / inch) TL1 Long Term Acceptance Rate (gal. / day /sq. ft.) 1 75 0.30 2 70 0.30 3 65 0.30 CONCLUSION Based on the excavated profile test pits, the preliminary Visual and Tactile evaluation, and the preliminary percolation test results, it appears that the native soils at the site are suitable for future Onsite Wastewater Treatment Systems (OWTS). During the Building Permit phase of the project, these preliminary results should be verified and engineered OWTS should be designed for each individual lot.
