The waiver requests are based on the temporary nature/circumstances of this proposed use. At the time of a permanent facility proposal, all necessary permit/application sections will be completed, as deemed necessary by the County. Requested Waivers: 1. Landscape Plan (4-203.F) The proposed Youth Hockey Facility is intended to be a temporary outdoor recreation facility. Due to the temporary nature of this proposal, we are requesting a waiver from the required landscape plan. The previous property owner had taken great care over the past 15-years years to install vegetative buffers along the property boundaries and within the property core to mitigate visual, acoustic/noise, and dust concerns. Much of the previously installed vegetation is currently nearing maturity. 2. Development and Improvement Agreements (4-203.J, K) No vesting issues or public improvements are included as part of this application. 3. Wastewater Management and System Plan (4-203. N) As a condition of approval, we are requesting a waiver to allow a temporary restroom facility in-lieu of a permanent OWTS system. The proposed temporary restrooms will be heated for winter use and regularly cleaned/emptied by a third-party service provider. A permanent OWTS system will be developed as part of the future/permanent facility proposal. Thank you for your guidance on the application and associated waiver requests.

Mineral interests may be severed from surface right interests in real property. C.R.S. § 24-65.5-101, et seq, requires notification to mineral owners when a landowner applies for an application for development from a local government. As such, the landowner must research the current owners of mineral interests for the property. The Garfield County Land Use and Development Code of 2013 (“LUDC”) Section 4 -101(E)(1)(b)(4) requires written notice to owners of mineral interests in the subject property in accordance with C.R.S. § 24-65.5-101, et seq, “as such owners can be identified through the records in the office of the Clerk and Recorder or Assessor, or through other means.” This form is proof of applicant’s compliance with the Colorado Revised Statutes and the LUDC. The undersigned applicant certifies that mineral owners have been researched for the subject property as required pursuant to C.R.S. § 24-65.5-101, et seq, and Section 4-101 (E)(1)(b)(4) of the Garfield County Land Use and Development Code, as amended. As a result of that research, the undersigned applicant certifies the following (Please initial on the blank line next to the statement that accurately reflects the result of research): I own the entire mineral estate relative to the subject property; or Minerals are owned by the parties listed below The names and addresses of any and all mineral owners identified are provided below (attach additional pages as necessary): Name of Mineral Owner Mailing Address of Mineral Owner I acknowledge I reviewed C.R.S. § 24-65.5-101, et seq, and I am in compliance with said statue and the LUDC. _____________________________________________ _________________________________ Applicant’s Signature Date ND The Albert Cerise Family Company The Albert Cerise Family Company c/o Leslie Cerise 1539 Highway 133 Carbondale, CO 81623 August 8, 2022 2340 County Road 100 - Colorado Extreme 27 Certification of Mineral Owner Research 28 2340 County Road 100 - Colorado Extreme Payment Agreement Form (4-203.B.4) 8/8/22 RECREATION (OUTDOOR) Definition, per Garfield County Code: An area or facility that offers entertainment, recreation, or games of skill, where any portion of the activity takes place outside and may include lighted areas for use after dusk. 2340 County Road 100 - Colorado Extreme 29 Background The applicant, Blue Mind, LLC, is submitting a Land Use Change Permit to allow a Temporary Outdoor Youth Hockey Rink within their 34.67-acre parcel. The lot was created in 1965 and then sold to the current owner in 2022 for commercial use. Prior to the unpermitted activities under the past owner, the property was used as a space for landscaping companies and the construction of log homes under a Special Use Permit. If approved, the Colorado Extreme’s Temporary Outdoor Youth Hockey Rink will be used during the 2022-2023 winter season, to provide free hockey to approximately 400 children who live in the Roaring Fork Valley. Their proposed operations meet the constraints of this permit request, the site, and all applicable zoning, access/circulation and nuisance requirements. Current Site Conditions The property is currently vacant. The previous owner sold the property on August 1, 2022 and following the sale of the property, the site has been cleared in preparation for this application. No outstanding code violations exist. Existing site utilities include a commercial well, electric/power lines and a utility control panel. The only features remaining on the site from the previous owner include a heated 672 square foot site office with a bathroom, and a centrally located shade structure (with no utilities) at the base of the southern steep section of the site. An Engineering Report is included. Proposed Conditions The proposed Temporary Outdoor Youth Hockey Rink will be accessed by the existing shared access drive, from Country Road 100. The shared private roadway will continue to provide access to parcel #239336400268, to the west. The access crosses through a 100’ ROW owned and managed by the Roaring Fork Transportation Authority (RFTA). Within the ROW lies the Rio Grande Trail. A 20’ wide (two, 8’ travel lanes with 2’ shoulders), two-way access driveway was approved by RFTA. Traffic analysis and access documentation with RFTA can be found in within the Traffic Study (4-203.L) in this package. The site will be used during three practice groups/teams (12 players/each) from 4pm-7pm, Monday through Saturday. Each group/team will have the ice for one hour. There will also be two coaches and two staff members to manage site operations on the premises, Monday through Saturday. No subleases or subtenant situations will be allowed. Per the Site Plan (exhibit A), only minor site modifications to the existing site are expected due to the temporary nature of this proposal: 1. Temporary Circulation - a one-way internal drive aisle will provide access to the hockey rink and parking area. Attendees will enter at the western area of the parcel and proceed through in a clockwise direction. 2. Temporary Parking - 43 spaces will be provided to ensure that there will be available spaces if parents arrive early for their child’s practice session. Previous year’s data shows that most parents stay for the entire practice. Spaces will also be provided for coaches and site staff. 3. Temporary Ice Rink - an temporary NHL sized hockey rink (200’ x 85’) will be located as shown on the site plan. The rink will be oriented to an alignment that maximizes the shade impacts of the adjacent hillside to the south. Two chillers will be used to maintain ice temperatures. Project Description (4-203.B.5) 30 2340 County Road 100 - Colorado Extreme 4. Temporary Restroom Facilities - temporary restroom facilities will be rented or purchased for the duration of the winter season to support players and parents. These facilities will be fully enclosed units that will be regularly serviced by a third-party provider. 5. Landform manipulation - The existing site is already “flat”, due to previous uses, with grades varying between 2-4% throughout the Area of Disturbance (as noted on the site plan). Only minor earthwork will be completed to remove old stockpiles of fill from the previous owner and to ensure the conveyance of storm water through overland drainage swales. As new owners of the 2340 CR 100 property, Colorado Extreme is proud to call Garfield County home. During this brief period of ownership, program ownership and staff have extended every courtesy to project stakeholders and neighbors. Colorado Extreme’s goal is to use this temporary phase as transition towards the planning and development of a permanent facility while ensuring that the current children’s programming will not lapse during the 2022-2023 season. Although minimal in nature, this temporary use proposal will allow hockey programming to continue for the 400 participants of the local program. 2340 County Road 100 - Colorado Extreme 31 SPECIFIC APPLICATION MATERIALS Garfield County, CO2340 CR 100: Vicinity Map Developed by Account Number R009788 Parcel Number 239336400267 Acres 35 Land SqFt 0 Tax Area 011 2019 Mill Levy 79.7760 Physical Address 2340 100 COUNTY RD CARBONDALE 81623 Owner Address NORDIC GARDENS LAND FUND, LLC 2340 COUNTY ROAD 100 CARBONDALE CO 81623 2019 Total Actual Value $828,500 Last 2 Sales Date Price 10/18/2019 $0 11/30/2015 $0 Date created: 1/11/2022 Last Data Uploaded: 1/11/2022 2:07:12 AM 3,787 ft Overview Legend Parcels Parcel/Account Numbers Highways Limited Access Highway Major Road Local Road Minor Road Other Road Ramp Ferry Pedestrian Way Owner Name Lakes & Rivers County Boundary Line Garfield County, CO2340 CR 100: Vicinity Map Developed by Account Number R009788 Parcel Number 239336400267 Acres 35 Land SqFt 0 Tax Area 011 2019 Mill Levy 79.7760 Physical Address 2340 100 COUNTY RD CARBONDALE 81623 Owner Address NORDIC GARDENS LAND FUND, LLC 2340 COUNTY ROAD 100 CARBONDALE CO 81623 2019 Total Actual Value $828,500 Last 2 Sales Date Price 10/18/2019 $0 11/30/2015 $0 Date created: 1/11/2022 Last Data Uploaded: 1/11/2022 2:07:12 AM 3,787 ft OverviewLegendParcels Parcel/Account Numbers Highways Limited Access Highway Major Road Local Road Minor Road Other Road Ramp Ferry Pedestrian Way Owner Name Lakes & Rivers County Boundary Line Garfield County, CO2340 CR 100: Vicinity Map Developed by Account Number R009788 Parcel Number 239336400267 Acres 35 Land SqFt 0 Tax Area 011 2019 Mill Levy 79.7760 Physical Address 2340 100 COUNTY RD CARBONDALE 81623 Owner Address NORDIC GARDENS LAND FUND, LLC 2340 COUNTY ROAD 100 CARBONDALE CO 81623 2019 Total Actual Value $828,500 Last 2 Sales Date Price 10/18/2019 $0 11/30/2015 $0 Date created: 1/11/2022 Last Data Uploaded: 1/11/2022 2:07:12 AM 3,787 ft Overview Legend Parcels Parcel/Account Numbers Highways Limited Access Highway Major Road Local Road Minor Road Other Road Ramp Ferry Pedestrian Way Owner Name Lakes & Rivers County Boundary Line 2340 CR 100 DOWNTOWN CARBONDALE 32 2340 County Road 100 - Colorado Extreme Vicinity Map (4-203.C) 2340 County Road 100 - Colorado Extreme 33 Site Plan (4-203.D) A Site Plan which meets Garfield County Standards has been developed for this application.

Please see Exhibit B Landscaping Plan (4-203.F) A Landscape Plan waiver has been requested for this application, due to the temporary nature of the proposed use. Impact Analysis (4-203.G) 1. Adjacent Land Use: According to Garfield County GIS data (see attached map on the following page), adjacent land uses within a 1500’ radius include a combination of rural/ agricultural properties and residential planned unit developments (PUDs). 2. Site Features: Notable site features within the 1500’ radius include: • The Roaring Fork River is located approximately 1085’ northeast from the nearest corner of proposed temporary hockey facility area. • A section of the Union Irrigation Ditch runs through the site but is not impacted by the proposed use or its limit of disturbance. • The topography throughout the proposed temporary hockey facility area does not exceed 4%. Much of the area is between 2-3%, which is considered “flat” for standard development activities. The adjacent hillside to the south of the proposed facility contains slopes in excess of 45%. See accompanying Site Survey Exhibit. • Vegetative cover in the area is comprised of irrigated agriculture (cropland and pasture) lands to the north and Pinyon-Juniper plant communities (shrub and brush rangeland) throughout the hillside to the south. 3. Soil Characteristics: Soil types within the proposed area include Yamo loam (majority of area), and Atencio-Azeltine o complex (minor area in extents of site). See attached soils map). The Atencio-Azeltine soils are well-draining soils and classified with Medium Runoff characteristics. The USDA farmland classification notes this soil type as Not Prime Farmland due to its sandy/gravelly composition. The soil composition is well-suited for the proposed use due to its drainage characteristics and lack of value to for agricultural production due to its composition.

Environmental Impacts The proposed temporary youth hockey facility is completely located within previously disturbed areas in the northwest corner of the parcel and will not negatively impact native vegetation. The Garfield County GIS identifies the site as part of the Ranch at Roaring Fork Conservation Area, Moderate Significance. The proposed temporary use is outside of the Visual Corridor area. This application proposes a focused site plan that avoids impacts to wildlife migration routes. The proposed site does not include any known critical wildlife habitats. 7. Nuisance The proposed temporary youth hockey facility will not result in any negative impacts to adjacent lots. The recreation use will not generate any vapor, dust, smoke, glare or vibration, or other emanations. All site lighting will adhere to County Development Standards to avoid glare and spill outside of the parcel. See Section 7-304 of this package for further information. Any onsite noise generation from daily youth classes (see Hours of Operation, below) and vehicular movement will be buffered by the layered vegetation and earthen berming along CR 100, both in the RFTA ROW and onsite. Noise shall not exceed State noise standards pursuant to C.R.S, Article 12, Title 25. 2340 County Road 100 - Colorado Extreme 39 8. Hours of Operation Hours of operation for the proposed temporary hockey facility will occur between 9am-7pm, Monday through Saturday. Typical weekly scheduling is anticipated to include: Monday - Saturday • 9am-3pm - minimal site maintenance and operational needs • 3pm-4pm - preparations for daily team/skate sessions • 4pm-5pm - daily session #1 (12 kids) • 5pm-6pm - daily session #2 (12 kids) • 6pm-7pm - daily session #3 (12 kids) Rezoning Justification Report (4-203.H) This section is not applicable to this application Statement of Appeal (4-203.I) This section is not applicable to this application Development Agreement (4-203.J) A Development Agreement waiver has been requested for this application Improvements Agreement (4-203.K) An Improvements Agreement waiver has been requested for this application Civil Engineering Report Colorado Extreme Hockey Rink 2340 Cr 100 Carbondale, Colorado 81623 1. Existing Conditions The existing parcel under evaluation for this engineering report is located at 2340 County Road 100, also known as Catherine Store Road, outside of Carbondale, Colorado. The Garfield County Parcel ID is 239336400267 with a legal description of “Section: 36 Township: 7 Range: 88 A PARCEL OF LAND IN GOVERNMENT LOTS 17 AND 21, A PORTION OF GOVERNMENT LOT 14, SEC. 31, TWN 7, RNG 87, AND IN GOVENMENT LOT 1, SEC. 1, TWN 8, RNG 88. 35.02 ACRES”. The parcel is 34.67 acres in size, with only 4.15 acres being developable due to steep hillside conditions within the southern portion of the property. The site has been previously utilized as a contractor’s yard but is currently not in use. The existing access to the site is located off County Road 100 (CR 100), which serves as a shared access for the neighboring property located to the west. A twenty-foot egress through the RFTA Rio Grande Railroad Corridor is located approximately 35 feet to the south of the county road edge of pavement, allowing for passage through this corridor and onto the site. Developed areas exist only on the far north portion of the property, past the toe of the steep hillside to the south. An existing access easement follows through the site from the entry of the property and continues towards the west for legal access to the neighboring property. Gravel drives surround the developed area for circulation and parking, as well as the access for the neighbor to the west. Several small structures have been removed from the interior of the site, leaving only a mobile office in the center of the site and a shade structure at the base of the hillside. This includes an office building located at the entrance of the property. An irrigation ditch lateral runs from the east to the west through the site. Existing overhead electric lines run within an easement through the lot as well. 2. Proposed Conditions This limited impact review application is requesting the use of the site as “Recreation, Outdoor”. This type of use is noted within the standard county use Table 3-403 (Article 3 of the land use code), under the commercial use category recreation and entertainment. The specific programming of the site will be a temporary ice hockey rink with associated parking. The eastern portion of the property will remain as existing, while the western portion of the property will see the existing gravel drive maintained, the addition of a temporary outdoor ice rink, and a new gravel drive and parking lot looping around the proposed rink. All access roads and driveways shall conform to Garfield County requirements by increasing the width in certain areas and providing adequate shoulders, parking and grading, as well as navigation and turnaround of emergency vehicles. Existing electric 40 2340 County Road 100 - Colorado Extreme Engineering Report services onsite will be improved in order to provide adequate power to the ice rink chillers. The existing well onsite is currently permitted through the Colorado Division of Water Resources as a commercial well. Proposed wastewater improvements for this project include temporary portable toilets, that will be self-contained and cleaned/maintained regularly. 3. Access, Roads and Parking The site will retain the existing access point along eastbound CR100. The existing shared gravel drive on site that connects the access point to the property to the west is being maintained at a 16’ width with 2’ shoulders. A proposed 24-foot wide gravel drive loops around the proposed hockey rink on the north side connecting to the existing gravel drive on both sides. 43 parking stalls are proposed along the looped 24-foot wide portion of the drive, as well as a pulloff/dropoff zone on the west side of the rink. This location of the pulloff will prevent cars from queueing up in the main entrance. Average total users at a given time is 36 kids and 4 staff members. The proposed use of this site is not listed in table 7-302A, “Minimum Off-Street Parking Standards By Use”, so the total number of parking spots was determined by the approximate average total users at a given time, and 43 total spots are proposed with two additional stalls for maintenance and operation parking. The proposed loop portion of the drive is designed for one-way traffic around the hockey rink in a clockwise direction. The existing gravel drive will be maintained as a two-way road. A “do not enter” sign will be installed to control traffic to the correct route. The looped drive also provides access for firefighting apparatus to reach all points within the developed site. The turning radii of the roadway allow for adequate turning clearance for a 45’ fire truck. An exhibit showing the fire truck turning movements is included in the civil plan set. Stop signs are proposed to be installed at the intersection with Catherine Store Road and at the intersection with the Rio Grande Trail on both sides, for a total of 3 stop signs. One additional stop sign is proposed at the end of the proposed loop drive where it connects back to the main entrance drive. Sight triangles have been provided on the civil plans showing the required clear area free from vegetation required to provide adequate lines of sight when leaving the site. Snow storage area equal to at least 2.5% of the drive area has been provided just north of the parking stalls in the same location as the proposed grass swale. 4. Grading and Drainage For this Land Use Application, the proposed grading on the site has been minimized to reduce site disturbance and impacts. The overall grading path of the site generally slopes from the southeast to the northwest. Grades do not exceed eight percent in areas of proposed disturbance, and the average grade is 2.8%. Total earthwork on site results in a net fill of 2,195 cubic yards. The portion of the site covered by the ice rink has a net fill of 1,082 cubic yards, a portion of which will be replaced by the sand base of the rink. Existing drainage paths from the large hillside above the project limits are to remain. No offsite drainage will be required for the project, as existing irrigation ditches and other drainage patterns convey runoff away from project limits. 2340 County Road 100 - Colorado Extreme 41 No onsite detention is provided. All rainfall that lands on the ice rink will stay on the ice rink, and no new impervious areas are provided within the proposed development, so overall runoff patterns will not be affected. A grass-lined swale is proposed along the north edge of the proposed parking stalls, and will capture runoff from the proposed development, provide infiltration and water quality treatment before allowing excess runoff to spill over, and sheet flow offsite to the north in existing drainage patterns. This grass swale will not provide detention, but will act as water quality treatment onsite and will offset any negative effects of the proposed improvements. 5. Utilities a. Water Domestic water for the site is located at a well just west of the entrance to the site. There is also an existing water shutoff valve and an existing spigot in this location. The main water use on the proposed site will be for the zamboni to fill with water to resurface the ice rink. This will be accomplished using the existing spigot. The existing office trailer on the eastern portion of the site has a water treatment system underneath its sink providing potable water. Well pump tests were performed and documented by LRE Water in a memorandum dated September 17, 2021. The pump test reported a long-term yield from the pump to be at least 15 gallons per minute. It is estimated that the peak demand from the well is approximately 10 gallons per minute. Therefore, the pump and well have capacity for the anticipated use of the site. No water improvements are proposed for this project. b. Wastewater Portable toilets are provided to manage wastewater on site and will require no water or sewer utility connections. It is assumed 2 portable toilets is sufficient for 100 people per day for a week. Toilets will be cleaned and maintained regularly. c. Electric An existing overhead electric line exists on site from east to west close to the toe of the existing slope. An overhead electric line spurs off to another standalone power pole on site, nearby the existing office building. An existing utility control panel is located just west of the main entrance near the existing water utilities. To provide adequate power and underground electric services to the site, a looped electrical service must be provided. The proposed design is to replace the existing power pole spur on site, to add a new power pole along the main overhead electric line just east of the existing pole, and to connect these two poles in a loop with the main line. Then an underground electric service line will extend from the two power poles to a proposed transformer to the west of the main entrance, located similarly to the existing utility control panel. Electric service lines will then extend to the ice rink chillers at the west end of the property and to the center of the site where they can be used as outlets for miscellaneous uses. d. Gas No gas service is provided to the structures within the development. 42 2340 County Road 100 - Colorado Extreme e. Communications All communications services currently in place shall be utilized to service the main office. Pedestals are located near the northeast property corner, close to CR 100. f. Telephone All telephone services currently in place shall be utilized to service the main office. Pedestals are located near the northeast property corner, close to CR 100. 6.

Vicinity Map 2340 County Road 100 - Colorado Extreme 45 Traffic Study, basic (4-203.L) Colorado Extreme Phase 1 Traffic Analysis ‐ Updated August 30, 2022 Page 2 Existing Conditions The subject property was previously approved to be a small contractor’s yard, which has not been operational in the last year or more. The existing structures and storage areas are located near County Road 100 where the land is relatively flat. The remainder of the property, south of the contractor yard, has steep grades into the forested area. There is currently one gravel access on County Road 100 that is shared with the neighboring property to the west. Currently, the neighboring property includes one single‐ family home. Per Garfield County’s Land Use and Development Code (2013), this access is classified as a “semi‐primitive road”. The roadway standards indicate that there is a design ca pacity of 100 vehicles per day (vpd) and a minimum right‐of‐way width of 40 feet. Across the driveway, approximately 36 feet south of the County Road 100, is the Rio Grande Trail. The access has a stop sign as it approaches the trail but does not have a stop sign as it approaches County Road 100. Based on the topography and roadway design, there is good sight distance in both directions to assist drivers to turn safely into and out of the driveway. The sight distance was measured by Radian Engineering last year to be over 500 feet in both directions which is greater than the AASHTO standard of 390 feet for a posted speed limit of 35 mph. Access Permits Currently, there is a Garfield County access permit for the existing access from Year 2004. The permit number is #68 and filed under reception #6258627. The permit allows access for both properties with a maximum width of 20 feet. The Garfield County permit is attached to the Appendix. The subject property also has an access permit to cross the Rio Grande Trail, which was provided by the Denver and Rio Western Railroad Company (refer to the Appendix for a copy). An updated access permit with RFTA has been completed for the new owner. Roadways The primary public roadways that serve the project site are discussed in the following text: State Highway 82 is a four‐lane major regional arterial (classified by CDOT as an Expressway) that provides east‐west access along the Roaring Fork Valley. It links Glenwood Springs (down valley) and the I‐70 corridor to the Town of Aspen (up valley) and all the communities in between. SH 82 currently carries approximately 24,200 vehicle per day (vpd) in between County Road 133 and County Road 100 (CDOT, estimated for Year 2021). The posted speed limit is 65 miles per hour (mph) within the study area. 46 2340 County Road 100 - Colorado Extreme Colorado Extreme Phase 1 Traffic Analysis ‐ Updated August 30, 2022 Page 3 The intersection of SH 82 at Catherine Store Road/County Road 100 is controlled by a traffic signal and the intersection includes: • Two through lanes in each direction of SH 82; • Bus queue jump/right‐turn lanes on SH 82 to allow the VelociRFTA BRT buses efficient service through the traffic signal; • Left‐turn deceleration lanes on SH 82; • Right‐turn deceleration and acceleration lanes on SH 82; The intersection of SH 82 at County Road 133 is controlled by a traffic signal and the intersection includes: • Two through lanes in each direction of SH 82; • Left‐turn deceleration lanes on SH 82 (Dual for WB); • Right‐turn deceleration and acceleration lanes for EB on SH 82; County Road 100 is a two‐lane roadway that leads to the rural residential area of east Carbondale. This roadway changes between north‐south orientation near SH 82 to east‐west orientation along the property frontage and links Carbondale’s Main Street to SH 82. County Road 100 has a posted speed limit of 35 mph and is approximately 24 feet in width within the vicinity of the project. This roadway services roughly 10,900 vpd during the week just south of SH 82 (Year 2017). County Road 133 is a two‐lane roadway with a center turn lane that travels through the heart of Carbondale. This roadway travels north south between SH 82 to Hotchkiss. County Road 133 has a posted speed limit of 35 mph through Town and increases to 55 mph south of Meadowood Drive. This roadway services roughly 16,700 vpd during the week just south of SH 82 (CDOT, estimated for Year 2021). Intersections Peak hour data was collected on two (2) weekdays at the access intersection on County Road 100 by Radian Engineering, LLC in August 2021, which were utilized within this analysis and attached to this memorandum. The data indicated that the AM peak hour at the intersection of County Road 100 and the Access started at 8:00 AM and the PM peak hour started at 4:50 PM. The existing data indicated that there were only two (2) inbound vehicles in the AM peak hour (8:00 AM) and zero (0) outbound. During the PM peak hour (4:50 PM), there was one (1) inbound vehicle and one (1) outbound vehicle. The highest volume on the driveway was three (3) vehicles which occurred at 7:20 AM. Within the six (6) hours counted on Day 1, there were a total of 27 vehicles in and out of the driveway and on Day 2 there were 15 vehicles. Radian Engineering indicated that there were several vehicles that were looking for the previous company at this address that no longer exists. It is assumed that there are 2340 County Road 100 - Colorado Extreme 47 Colorado Extreme Phase 1 Traffic Analysis ‐ Updated August 30, 2022 Page 4 typically less than 10 vehicle trips per day without the contractor’s yard in operation at this driveway for the existing single‐family home. The nearest intersection with State Highway 82 is approximately 1.1 miles to the northeast and is anticipated to have some of the Colorado Extreme trips through it. Refer to the trip generation and assignment section for anticipated trips through this intersection. Data was collected at this intersection in Year 2017 as part of the Aspen Polo Club and McClure Ranch project and utilized in this analysis. The existing peak hour volumes are illustrated on Figure 2. Pedestrian and Bicycle The Rio Grande Trail connects Glenwood Springs to Aspen and parallels County Road 100, crossing the existing access. The Rio Grande Trail is a rail‐to‐trails project that provides multi‐modal connectivity through the Roaring Fork Valley. Transit The Roaring Fork Transportation Authority (RFTA) provides public transportation service between communities adjacent to and within the Roaring Fork Valley. There are no routes or bus stops on County Road 100 near the project site, however, there are two (2) bus stops within three (3) miles of the site. The Local Valley bus route travels between Glenwood Springs and Aspen with stops along SH 82 east of Catherine Store Road/County Road 100 to serve the local park‐n‐ride, as well a stop at the Carbondale park‐n‐ride and along Main Street. There is also a Carbondale Circulator that connects the citizens and visitors to destinations within the Town. This bus service travels between the Carbondale park‐n‐ride and locations along County Road 133 and Main Street. The Bus Rapid Transit, named VelociRFTA, is an express transit service with parking available at the Carbondale park‐n‐ride (Village Road and Highway 133). Both bus routes provide connections to the other six RFTA bus routes between Rifle and Aspen. A snapshot of the RFTA bus map is shown to the right with the Catherine Store Road local bus stop circled. 48 2340 County Road 100 - Colorado Extreme Colorado Extreme Phase 1 Traffic Analysis ‐ Updated August 30, 2022 Page 5 Trip Generation To establish the volume of trips associated with the proposed Colorado Extreme ice rink, data on last year’s athletes was utilized. There is limited data contained in the national guidelines (ITE Trip Generation Manual); therefore, the programming data was utilized. It is anticipated that there will be three (3) sessions per afternoon during the week with 12 students each session. Based on the previous hockey season, it was typical that the parents/guardians remained at the ice rink until the session was completed. For conservative purposes in this trip generation estimate, it was assumed that there would be 80% of the parents/guardians remaining on site while the other 20% left during the session to return at the end of the session. It was also assumed that only 10% of the athletes will carpool. In reality, this will be even higher since Colorado Extreme is working on a shuttling program for athletes after school and the parents/guardians will be highly encouraged to carpool. It was assumed that there would be a total of four (4) staff members per day for coaching duties (2) and site maintenance/operations (2). The estimated daily trip generation is summarized on Table 1. Table 1 – Trip Generation (DAILY) It was estimated that there would be up to 83 daily trips associated with the first phase of Colorado Extreme. The trips associated with the existing single‐family home were estimated to up to ten (10) trips per day (based on ITE suburban rates). Adding this to the trip estimate of Colorado Extreme, the driveway would have up to 93 vehicle trips per day which is under the threshold for a semi primitive access (100 vpd threshold). It is anticipated that this is a conservative estimate for the driveway volumes since carpooling will most likely be higher than 10%. Also, the single‐family home is likely to have less daily trips since it is considered a rural home and not suburban, which is the basis of the ITE trip rates. 10% Total 12 12 10 2 2 12 28 per day ‐3 25 12 12 10 2 2 12 28 per day ‐3 25 12 12 10 2 2 12 28 per day ‐3 25 Total Trips for Athletes 84 per day 75 per day Staff IN OUT 4 4 4 8 per day Total Trips for Staff 8 per day 8 per day Total Trips for Phase 1 83 per day OUT No Reduction Athletes IN Stay (80%) Leave in Hour Return in Hour Daily Total Trips (IN + OUT) Reduction for Carpooling and SiblingsDaily Total Trips (IN + OUT + Leave/Return) 2340 County Road 100 - Colorado Extreme 49 Colorado Extreme Phase 1 Traffic Analysis ‐ Updated August 30, 2022 Page 6 For the AM peak hour, it is likely there will be up to one (1) trip to or from the site by staff. During the PM peak hour, it is anticipated that there will be 20 inbound trips for athletes and 15 outbound trips for athletes and staff. This is based on the typical patterns of arrival and leaving for sports practices. Trip Assignment The estimated trip volumes were distributed onto the study area street network based on addresses of the young athletes that was provided by Colorado Extreme. Based on the addresses, the trip distribution is as follows, as well as presented on Figure 3: • 19% to/from Down Valley • 45% to/from Up Valley • 20% to/from Carbondale • 8% to/from Frontage Road • 5% to/from South County Road 133 • 3% to/from North Catherine Store Note that all Carbondale addresses were mapped to determine which part of Town the students would be traveling from, to ensure the routing was accurate. The daily and peak hour trips are illustrated on Figure 4. The peak hour trips were added to the existing volumes and are shown on Figure 5. CDOT Access Permit CDOT requires an access permit when the side‐street volume increases the permitted volume by 20% or more. The new trips on County Road 100 accessing State Highway 82 will add approximately one (1) vehicle in the AM peak hour and 17 vehicles in the PM peak hour. This equates to approximately 0.2% increase in traffic over the permitted volumes in the AM peak hour and 3% of the PM peak hour. The additional volumes associated with Colorado Extreme does not require an updated access permit. 50 2340 County Road 100 - Colorado Extreme Colorado Extreme Phase 1 Traffic Analysis ‐ Updated August 30, 2022 Page 7 Conclusions The Colorado Extreme project proposes to construct one (1) outdoor ice rink in the first phase to continue to provide a free hockey program for young athletes within the area. This ice rink is temporary for approximately two winter seasons and will be full replaced in Phase 2. A separate traffic study will be completed for the second phase of the Colorado Extreme project. The existing access will remain in the same location and continue to provide access to the site and the adjacent single‐family home. It is anticipated that the existing access, roadway network and intersections can accommodate the project trips without the need for additional analysis or mitigation measures.

The purpose of the pump test was to demonstrate that adequate potable groundwater exists at a reasonable depth for the proposed uses and to provide an estimate of the expected long-term yield of the well. This memorandum summarized the opinion and findings of LRE Water regarding the adequacy of the physical water supply for the Blue Mind, LLC proposed development. WATER DEMAND Blue Mind, LLC is in the process of amending their existing Basalt Water Conservancy District (BWCD) water allotment contract which is the legal water supply for the proposed Temporary Youth Hockey Facility. The contract covers an outdoor ice rink for up to 150,000 gallons of water from October through Mary, indoor commercial use (up to 0.3 EQR), and 22,000 square feet of irrigation on the property from an existing well (current Permit No. 83473-F). Total proposed annual demands are 1.866 acre-feet (AF). The maximum demand is expected to occur in June with due to irrigation. Storage may be needed to meet peak hour demands associated with the ice rink facility or irrigation. WATER SUPPLY Well Construction The well was constructed on April 7, 2003, by Shelton Drilling Company. The well is constructed in boulders, sand, and gravel in the first 32 feet and cobbles, sand, and Beldon shale in the gravel in for the next 19 feet. The total depth of the well is 51 feet and it is constructed with 7-inch diameter steel surface casing with perforated steel casing installed in the water producing zone from 25 feet to 32 feet. At the time of the well construction, static water level was 12 feet from the top of casing (TOC) and the well produced 15 gpm during a 2-hour pumping test. Blue Mind, LLC will need to re-permit the well for the proposed uses. 74 2340 County Road 100 - Colorado Extreme Water Supply and Distribution Plan (4-203.M) Engineering Water Supply and Demand Report Please See Exhibits, for the Water Distribution Plan Nicholas DiFrank August 11, 2022 Blue Mind, LLC Page 2 of 2 Water Demand and Supply The permitted and actual location for the well is the SE1/4 SE1/4 of Section 36 Township 7 South, Range 886 West, of the 6th P.M. (NAD83 Z13 UTM(x)=313651.2, UTM(y)=4363223.4). Pumping Test A 4-hour pumping test was conducted by Ray’s Well Done Pump Service on July 23, 2021 for the well. The purpose of the test was to determine the long-term yield of the well and its adequacy to serve the existing and proposed uses. The initial static water level was 12.0 feet and a flow rate of 15.0 gpm as shown on Figure 1. There was no significant drawdown at this flow rate; therefore, the pumping rate remained at 15 gpm. The well had a maximum total drawdown of 3.0 feet as shown on Figure 2. Over the 4-hour pumping period approximately 3,600 gallons of water was pumped. Figure 3 depicts the water level recovery in the well in the first 2 minutes after pumping ceased. Considering the minimal drawdown depth and quick recovery apparent during the pump test, LRE Water believes that this well can provide a long term yield of 15 gpm to support the planned usage. CONCLUSION The results from the pumping test indicate that the well has a more than sufficient yield to serve the proposed uses of a temporary outdoor ice rink, commercial uses of up to 0.3 EQR, and 22,000 square feet of irrigation. The long term yield of the well is estimated to be at least 15 gpm. Storage may be needed to meet peak hour demands associated with the ice rink facility or irrigation.

LRE Water had conducted water quality analysis of the existing well for the previous owner approximately one year ago. Blue Mind, LLC’s proposed uses for the property are generally for a Temporary Youth Hockey Facility. Given this, it is LRE Water’s opinion that the water quality analysis conducted last year on the property is sufficient to examine the suitability of the water for the proposed uses. This specific section of the land use code states: “Water quality shall be tested by an independent testing laboratory for the following contaminants: alkalinity, arsenic, cadmium, calcium, coliform bacteria, chloride, conductivity, copper, corrosivity, fluoride, hardness, iron, lead, magnesium, manganese, nitrate/nitrite, pH, sodium, sodium adsorption ratio, sulfate, total dissolved solids, uranium, zinc and alpha/beta radioactivity. Additional testing may be required for other contaminants that occur within the County. The results shall show that the Maximum Contaminants Levels (MCLs), as set forth by the CDPHE within the Colorado Primary Drinking Water Standards, are not exceeded, or the Applicant has otherwise identified a treatment system that will bring the water within acceptable MCLs. Annual testing, testing for other contaminants, and testing for secondary drinking standards including taste, odor, color, staining, scaling, and corrosion is also recommended.” This letter report presents the technical analysis of the water quality. The well (current Permit No. 86473-F) is located in the SE1/4 SE1/4 of Section 36 Township 7 South, Range 886 West, of the 6th P.M. (NAD83 Z13 UTM(x)=313651.2, UTM(y)=4363223.4). The proposed uses form the well include a temporary outdoor ice rink facility, minor indoor commercial use (up to 0.3 EQR), and outdoor irrigation. WATER QUALITY A pre-packaged water quality sampling kit was ordered from Colorado Analytical Laboratories, Inc. Raw water samples were obtained from the well by LRE Water on July 26, 2021 after first 2340 County Road 100 - Colorado Extreme 79 Well Water Quality Analysis Report Nicholas DiFrank August 11, 2022 Blue Mind, LLC Page 2 of 3 Well Water Quality Results running the well 10 minutes at a flow rate of less than 10 gallons per minute (gpm). The samples were shipped by overnight delivery under proper chain of custody to Colorado Analytical Laboratories, Inc. (results attached).1 In accordance with the criteria established by the Garfield County Land Use and Development Code, the well was tested for inorganic compounds including metals, coliform, alkalinity, corrosivity, hardness, pH, total dissolved solids, and radionuclides. The attached results indicate that the well water meets the basic EPA primary and secondary drinking water standards with the exception of Total Coliform. This is further discussed below. Total Coliform Total Coliform was “present” at the well. Coliform bacteria include a large group and many types of bacteria that naturally occur throughout the environment and are common in both soil and surface water. Most types of coliform bacteria are harmless to humans, but some can cause mild illness and even fewer can lead to waterborne disease. The presence of coliform indicates that a contamination pathway exists between a source of bacteria (surface water, animal waste, septic system, etc.) and the water supply. Coliform bacteria is much more common in springs and in shallow wells compared to deeper wells as the bacteria is filtered out by soil and rock as surface water infiltrates the ground. The presence of Total Coliform indicates that the groundwater supply is under the influence of surface water. Total Coliform can be treated with filtration. Ultrafiltration (average pore size of 0.01 micron) or higher level of treatment is required. Disinfection (i.e. chlorine or ultraviolet light) will also treat bacteria. Shock chlorination of the well is also often utilized for treatment; however, contamination could occur again over time. We also note that the well is considered very hard (> 200 mg/l as CaCO3) with a measured value of 226.7 mg/l. Hard water can cause scale to build up in boilers, water heaters, and on water fixtures, and lessen effectiveness of soaps. Hardness is typically treated for domestic and commercial uses if greater than 200 mg/L. CONCLUSION The laboratory results for the water quality analysis indicate that the water at the well meets most basic primary and secondary drinking water standards with the exception of Total Coliform. In addition the water was found to be very hard. Total Coliform can be treated with disinfection (i.e. chlorination or ultraviolet light) or ultrafiltration (average pore size of 0.01 micron) to meet the primary drinking water standard. Hardness is not health threatening and is considered nonenforceable. Therefore, with disinfection or ultrafiltration, the water quality is suitable for domestic or commercial use (including irrigation). LRE Water recommends that Blue Mind, LLC 1 Colorado Analytical Laboratories subsequently sent sampled water Hazen Research, Inc. for the analysis of Gross Alpha and Gross Beta radionuclides. 80 2340 County Road 100 - Colorado Extreme Nicholas DiFrank August 11, 2022 Blue Mind, LLC Page 3 of 3 Well Water Quality Results consider water softening and provide filtration for the proposed commercial uses.

Chillers will not run during evening hours, after the facility is closed. • The selected models are the same low noise/quiet operating models that were used at the Crown Mountain Temporary Hockey Facility last year. 128 2340 County Road 100 - Colorado Extreme 6 652 Melissa Ln, Carbondale, CO 81623 • RE-LAND.COM • 303.829.8362 2340 County Road 100 - Colorado Extreme 129 7 652 Melissa Ln, Carbondale, CO 81623 • RE-LAND.COM • 303.829.8362 130 2340 County Road 100 - Colorado Extreme 8 652 Melissa Ln, Carbondale, CO 81623 • RE-LAND.COM • 303.829.8362 4. We are requesting that the Existing Small-Contractor’s Yard Approval remain in place during the temporary hockey rink period. If Colorado Extreme is able to successfully move forward with a permanent facility in the future, the Small Contractor’s Yard Special Use Permit would be vacated at that time. The only structure on site is the mobile office. This structure will remain in place as a site operations office for Blue Mind LLC. It will not be used for Colorado Extreme hockey functions and will not be publicly accessible. 5. Contact Information for the Union Ditch: There is no formal management entity or company for the Union Ditch. It has been run through an informal group of local landowners who own property and controlling ditch rights on Catherine Store Road/CR 100. Mike Kennedy, a local resident of over 40-years, is the point of contact. He oversees the collection and sharing of associated Union Ditch information and organizes management activities for the Ditch.

Traffic Study Update: The Basic Traffic Study has been updated to ensure consistency with the conclusions on page 7 of the report. A copy of the revised study is attached alongside this memo and will replace the previous version in the final application package and required hard copies. 7. Site and Temporary Rink Lighting Standards: Temporary hockey rink lighting will be provided by WiLL (Wisconsin Lighting Lab), a 50-year-old company that focuses on LED sports lighting products and technology. All products are professional grade and made in the USA to meet AASHTO standards. A noted in the following quote, it is anticipated that six (6) light poles with small area/flood LED fixtures will be used to light the rink. The lights will be used as needed during the three, 1 hour skate sessions (4pm, 5pm, 6pm), and then for closing operations (latest of 8:30pm shutdown). The partially shielded LED lighting fixtures will be mounted on top of 20’ black, powder-coated poles. Due to the partially shielded nature of this lighting product, we would like to request a waiver from the lighting standards. Fixture specifications: • Dimensions: 20.5” long x 14.4” wide • 24000 lumens @ 5000K / each • 120-277v input • Type 5 Wide Distribution The Type 5 (directed) distribution pattern has been selected to ensure that light is focused on the rink and the immediate periphery to safely support game play, spectators, and pedestrian movement around the rink. The selected lighting distribution and hood design (included/following) will avoid light spill outside of the immediate rink area and will not result in any impacts to neighboring property through light pollution and/or spill. 2340 County Road 100 - Colorado Extreme 131 9 652 Melissa Ln, Carbondale, CO 81623 • RE-LAND.COM • 303.829.8362 Lighting Product Quote: 132 2340 County Road 100 - Colorado Extreme 10 652 Melissa Ln, Carbondale, CO 81623 • RE-LAND.COM • 303.829.8362 Fixture Distribution Information: Note: Distribution pattern illustrated below is based on a 25’ tall pole.

Although they hope to develop this proposal and facility prior to next hockey season, we understand that may not be possible. If necessary, we would like to understand if an administrative extension on the temporary rink could be requested, as needed, for next year (2023-24 season).
