GENERAL PROVISIONS.
3-101. ESTABLISHMENT OF ZONE DISTRICTS.
The following zone districts are established.
Rural (R).
The Rural Zone District is comprised of the County’s
rural residential areas, agricultural resource lands, agricultural production areas, and natural resource areas. Uses, densities, and standards established for this zone district are
intended to protect the existing character of the area from uncontrolled and unmitigated residential, commercial, and industrial use. The zone district provides for the use of natural
resources, recreational development, rural residential, and other uses.
Commercial, General (CG).
The General Commercial Zone District provides for General Retail, service, and recreation-oriented
commercial businesses intended to serve the County as a whole. Clustering of business development in centers is encouraged. Development standards and review criteria are specifically
intended to discourage strip development and encourage low-scale, low-impact commercial areas.
Commercial, Limited (CL).
The Limited Commercial Zone District provides for a limited
range of commercial uses needed to meet the shopping needs of residents in the adjacent neighborhoods. Businesses are to be oriented to the neighborhood and compatible with surrounding
residential uses.
Industrial (I).
The Industrial Zone District provides appropriate areas for industrial businesses in locations where conflicts with residential, commercial, and
other land uses can be minimized.
Public Lands (PL).
The Public Lands Zone District shall include all land owned by the U.S. Government or the State of Colorado, located in the unincorporated
area of the County and not included in any other zone district.
Public Airport (PA).
The Public Airport Zone District is comprised of County land designated for uses supporting public
use airport operations in Garfield County. Land use in the Public Airport Zone District shall be guided by the Airport Master Plan and the Airport Rules and Regulations.
Residential
- Manufactured Home Park (RMHP).
The Residential - Manufactured Home Park Zone District allows for development where spaces are either sold or leased for placement of Manufactured
Homes in a park-like setting, and these homes are used as permanent Single-Family Dwelling Units.
Residential – Suburban (RS).
The Residential – Suburban Zone District is comprised
of low-density suburban residential uses developed to maintain a rural character.
Residential – Urban (RU).
The Residential – Urban Zone District is comprised of high-density urban residential uses, including multi-family developments.
Resource Lands.
The Resource
Lands Zone District shall be subclassified into the following zones:
Gentle Slopes and Lower Valley Floor (RLGS). The subdistrict identified as Gentle Slopes and Lower Valley Floor
is defined as the colluvial and alluvial soil at the base of Talus Slopes in the Lower Valley Floor.
Talus Slopes (RLTS). The subdistrict identified as Talus Slopes is defined as loose
deposits of rock debris accumulated at the base of Talus Slopes in the Lower Valley Floor.
Escarpment (RLE). The subdistrict identified as Escarpment is defined as the fixed bedrock
forming vertical or near vertical parts of the canyon walls.
Plateau (RLP). The subdistrict identified as Plateau is defined as the rolling lands of the higher elevation in the Resource
Land Zone District, typically found above the Escarpment subdistrict.
3-102. ESTABLISHMENT OF OVERLAY ZONE DISTRICTS.
Overlay Zone Districts are superimposed over the existing
zone district, and Overlay Zone District regulations are in addition to those of the underlying zone district, unless otherwise provided in this Code. Use restrictions and standards
for the individual Overlay Zone Districts are set forth under Division 3 of this Article, Overlay Zone District Regulations. The following Overlay Zone Districts are established:
Floodplain
Overlay.
Purpose. The purpose of the Floodplain Overlay is:
To minimize and prevent adverse effects of proposed development on the flood-carrying capacity within the 100-year Floodplain;
To minimize flood losses by restricting or prohibiting
uses that are dangerous to public health, safety, and property in times of flooding; and
To regulate development that would alter or increase the potential damage or impacts of a major
storm or exacerbate the Floodplain impacts on other tracts of land.
Boundaries and Jurisdiction. Reports and maps establishing the Floodplain Overlay District and Floodplain subdistricts
are incorporated herein, pursuant to section 1-109, Incorporation and Interpretation of Maps. The Overlay District shall be comprised of all lands within a Special Flood Hazard Area
(SFHA), as follows:
Lands Within Designated 100-Year Floodplain. This includes lands identified as within the designated 100-year Floodplain as mapped on the Flood Insurance Rate Maps
(FIRM), or identified in the “Flood Insurance Study, Garfield County, Colorado, Unincorporated Areas” dated August 2, 2006, and the accompanying flood maps titled “Flood Boundary Maps,
Floodway Maps and Flood Insurance Rate Maps, Garfield County, Colorado, Unincorporated Areas,” as the same may be amended from time to time; or
Lands Not Within a FIRM-Identified 100-Year
Floodplain. When an application for a Land Use Change Permit, including divisions of land, indicates or suggests that an area of the site may be in a SFHA, but for which area no FIRM
maps have been previously prepared, the Applicant shall provide Floodplain studies, including appropriate maps, conducted and certified by a qualified professional engineer experienced
in hydrology and hydraulics. These studies shall, at a minimum, determine the type of SFHA the property is within, including the depth and elevation of the Base Flood for the entire
area of the site and for 200 yards upstream and downstream from the site, with an appropriate cross section.
Areas Removed From the 100-Year Floodplain. Those areas removed from the
Floodplain by the issuance of a FEMA Letter of Map Revision Based on Fill (LOMR-F).
Drinking Water Constraints Overlay.
Purpose. The purpose of the Drinking Water Constraints Overlay
is to ensure a safe domestic water supply for all land use within the Overlay District which includes human consumption of ground water.
Boundaries and Jurisdiction. Reports and maps
establishing the Drinking Water Constraints Overlay District are incorporated herein, pursuant to section 1-109, Incorporation and Interpretation of Maps.
Airport/Heliport Influence
Area Overlay.
Purpose. The purpose of an Airport/Heliport Influence Area Overlay is:
To support and encourage the continued operation and vitality of the County Airport and Heliport;
To reduce potential safety hazards for persons living, working, or recreating near the County Airport and Heliport by establishing compatibility and safety standards to promote air navigational
safety; and
To minimize environmental impacts resulting from the operation of the County Airport and Heliport.
Boundaries and Jurisdiction. Plans and maps establishing the Airport/Heliport
Influence Area Overlay District are incorporated herein, pursuant to section 1-109, Incorporation and Interpretation of Maps. The District shall be comprised of the Airport Imaginary
Surfaces defined by FAR Part 77 and this Code, and include the following:
Airport Imaginary Surfaces. All lands, waters, and airspace, or portions thereof, that are located within the
boundaries of the Primary Surface, Runway Protection Zone (RPZ), Approach Surface, Horizontal Surface, Conical Surface, and Transitional Surface. The Airport/Heliport’s Influence Area
Overlay District’s boundaries shall be the outer extremities of the boundaries of the Imaginary Surfaces.
Noise Impact Boundary. The Noise Impact Boundary incorporates areas within
1,500 feet of an Airport Runway or within established noise contour boundaries exceeding 55 Ldn as depicted in the Airport/Heliport’s Layout Plan. If the Noise Impact Boundary extends
beyond the extremities of the Imaginary Surfaces, the Airport/Heliport Influence Area Overlay District boundaries shall be extended to incorporate the Noise Impact Boundary.
Partial
Inclusion. If a structure, lot, or parcel of land lies partly within the Airport/Heliport Influence Area Overlay, the part of the structure, lot, or parcel lying within the Overlay
District shall meet all requirements for the Airport/Heliport Influence Area Overlay.
Notice of Land Use and Permit Applications. The Director shall provide to the Airport Sponsor and
to the BOCC written notice of any proposed land use located within the Airport/Heliport Influence Area Overlay, unless the proposed land use meets all of the following criteria:
All
structures, including nonhabitable structure or building appurtenances, are less than 35 feet in height;
Involves property located entirely outside the Approach Surface;
Does not involve
industrial, mining, or similar uses that emit smoke, dust, or steam; sanitary landfills or water impoundments; or radio, radiotelephone, television, or similar transmission facilities

General Standards.
In the Floodplain
Overlay, the following provisions are required for all New Construction and Substantial Improvements:
All New Construction or Substantial Improvements shall be designed (or modified)
and adequately anchored to prevent flotation, collapse, or lateral movement of the structure resulting from hydrodynamic and hydrostatic loads, including the effects of buoyancy.
All
New Construction or Substantial Improvements shall be constructed by methods and practices that minimize flood damage.
All New Construction or Substantial Improvements shall be constructed
with materials resistant to flood damage.
All New Construction or Substantial Improvements shall be constructed with electrical, heating, ventilation, plumbing, and air conditioning
equipment, and other service facilities that are designed and/or located so as to prevent
water from entering into or accumulating within the components during conditions of flooding.
All Manufactured Homes shall be installed using methods and practices which minimize flood
damage. For the purposes of this requirement, Manufactured Homes must be elevated and anchored to resist floatation, collapse, or lateral movement. Methods of anchoring may include,
but are not limited to, use of over-the-top or frame ties to ground anchors. This requirement is in addition to applicable State and local anchoring requirements for resisting wind forces.
All new and replacement water supply systems shall be designed to minimize or eliminate infiltration of flood waters into the system.
New and replacement sanitary sewage systems shall
be designed to minimize or eliminate infiltration of flood waters into the system and discharge from the systems into flood waters.
On-site waste disposal systems shall be located to
avoid impairment to them or contamination from them during flooding.
Specific Standards.
In the Floodplain Overlay, where BFE data has been provided, the following provisions are
required:
Residential Construction. New Construction and Substantial Improvement of any residential structure shall have the Lowest Floor (including Basement), elevated to 1 foot above
the BFE. A qualified professional engineer, architect, or land surveyor shall submit a certification to the Floodplain Administrator.
Nonresidential Construction. With the exception
of Critical Facilities, New Construction and Substantial Improvements of any commercial, industrial, or other nonresidential structure shall either have the Lowest Floor (including Basement)
elevated to at least 1 foot above the Base Flood level or together with attendant utility and sanitary facilities, be designed so that below 1 foot above the Base Flood level the structure
is watertight with walls substantially impermeable to the passage of water and with structural components having the capability of resisting hydrostatic and hydrodynamic loads and effects
of buoyancy. A qualified professional engineer or architect shall develop and/or review structural design, specifications, and plans for the construction, and shall certify that the
design and methods of construction are in accordance with accepted standards of practice as outlined in this subsection. A record of such certification that includes the specific elevation
(in relation to mean sea level) to which such structures are flood-proofed shall be provided to and maintained by the Floodplain Administrator.
Enclosures. New Construction and Substantial
Improvements, with fully enclosed areas below the Lowest Floor that are usable solely for parking of vehicles, building access, or storage in an area other than a Basement, and that
are subject to flooding, shall be designed to automatically equalize hydrostatic flood forces on exterior walls by allowing for the entry and exit of floodwaters. Designs for meeting
this requirement must either be certified by a qualified professional engineer or architect and meet or exceed the following minimum criteria:
Provide a minimum of 2 openings having a total net area of not less than 1 square inch for every square foot of enclosed area subject to flooding;
The bottom of all openings shall be
no higher than 1 foot above grade; and
Openings may be equipped with screens, louvers, valves, or other coverings or devices provided that they permit the unrestricted entry and exit
of floodwaters.
Manufactured Homes.
All Manufactured Homes that are placed or substantially improved or substantially damaged as a result of a flood and within a SFHA where the BFE
is provided on the community’s FIRM shall be elevated on a permanent foundation such that the Lowest Floor of the Manufactured Home is elevated to 1 foot above the BFE and be securely
anchored to a foundation system professionally designed to resist flotation, collapse, and lateral movement.
All Manufactured Homes placed or substantially improved or substantially
damaged as a result of a flood on sites where no BFE is provided on the community’s FIRM shall be securely anchored to a professionally designed foundation system to resist floatation,
collapse, and lateral movement and either:
Elevated so that the chassis is supported by reinforced piers or other foundation elements of at least equivalent strength that are no less
than 36 inches in height above adjacent Natural Grade, or
Elevated 1 foot above the flood elevation as determined by a qualified professional engineer experienced in hydrology and hydraulics.
Recreational Vehicles. Require that Recreational Vehicles placed on sites within SFHA on the community’s FIRM either:
Be on the site for fewer than 180 consecutive days;
Be fully licensed
and ready for highway use; or
Meet the permit requirements of this Code and the elevation and anchoring requirements for “Manufactured Homes” in paragraph 4 of this section. A Recreational
Vehicle is ready for highway use if it is on its wheels or jacking system, is attached to the site only by quick disconnect-type utilities and security devices, and has no permanently
attached additions.
Floodway.
Floodways located within SFHAs are designated as “Floodways.” Since the Floodway is an extremely hazardous area due to the velocity of flood waters
which carries debris, potential projectiles, and erosion potential, the following provisions shall apply:
Encroachments are prohibited unless it has been demonstrated through hydrologic
and hydraulic analyses, performed in accordance with
standard engineering practice, that the proposed encroachment would not result in any increase in flood levels within the community during the occurrence of the Base Flood discharge.
Encroachments include Fill, New Construction, Substantial Improvements, and other development within the regulatory Floodway;
All New Construction and Substantial Improvements shall
comply with all applicable flood hazard reduction provisions in this Code; and
Under the provisions of 44 CFR Chapter 1, Section 65.12, of the National Flood Insurance Regulations, a
community may permit encroachments within the regulatory Floodway that would result in an increase in BFEs, provided that the community first applies for a conditional FIRM and Floodway
revision through FEMA.
Standards for Areas of Shallow Flooding.
Areas designated as shallow flooding are located within the SFHAs. These areas have special flood hazards associated
with Base Flood depths of 1 to 3 feet where a clearly defined channel does not exist and where the path of flooding is unpredictable and where velocity flow may be evident. Such flooding
is characterized by ponding or sheet flow; therefore, the following provisions apply:
All New Construction and Substantial Improvements of residential structures have the Lowest Floor
(including Basement) elevated above the highest adjacent Natural Grade at least 1 foot above the depth number specified in feet on the community’s FIRM (at least 3 feet if no depth number
is specified).
All New Construction and Substantial Improvements of nonresidential structures:
Shall have the Lowest Floor (including Basement) elevated above the highest Natural Grade
at least 1 foot above the depth number specified in feet on the community’s FIRM (at least 3 feet if no depth number is specified); or
Shall be designed so that the structure including
attendant utility and sanitary facilities, below 1 foot above the Base Flood Elevation, are watertight with walls substantially impermeable to the passage of water and that the structural
components have the capability of resisting hydrostatic and hydrodynamic loads of effects of buoyancy.
Adequate drainage paths around structures are required to guide flood waters around
and away from proposed structures. Drainage shall not adversely impact adjacent properties.
Properties Removed from the Floodplain by Fill.
A Floodplain Development Permit shall not
be issued for the construction of a new structure or addition to an existing structure on a property removed from the Floodplain by the issuance of a FEMA Letter of Map Revision Based
on LOMR-F, unless such new structure or addition complies with the following:
Residential Construction. The Lowest Floor (including Basement), electrical, heating, ventilation, plumbing,
and air conditioning equipment and other service facilities (including ductwork), must be
elevated to 1 foot above the Base Flood Elevation that existed prior to the placement of Fill.
Nonresidential Construction. The Lowest Floor (including Basement), electrical, heating,
ventilation, plumbing, and air conditioning equipment and other service facilities (including ductwork), must be elevated to 1 foot above the Base Flood Elevation that existed prior
to the placement of Fill, or together with attendant utility and sanitary facilities be designed so that the structure or addition is watertight to at least 1 foot above the Base Flood
Elevation that existed prior to the placement of Fill with walls substantially impermeable to the passage of water and with structural components having the capability of resisting hydrostatic
and hydrodynamic loads of effects of buoyancy.
Alteration of a Watercourse.
For all proposed developments that alter a watercourse within a SFHA, the following standards apply:
Channelization
and flow diversion projects shall appropriately consider issues of sediment transport, erosion, deposition, and channel migration and properly mitigate potential problems through the
project as well as upstream and downstream of any improvement activity. A detailed analysis of sediment transport and overall channel stability should be considered, when appropriate,
to assist in determining the most appropriate design.
Channelization and flow diversion projects shall evaluate the residual 100-year Floodplain.
Any channelization or other stream
alteration activity proposed by a project proponent must be evaluated for its impact on the regulatory Floodplain and be in compliance with all applicable Federal, State, and local Floodplain
rules, regulations, and ordinances.
Any stream alteration activity shall be designed and sealed by a qualified professional engineer or certified professional hydrologist.
All activities
within the regulatory Floodplain shall meet all applicable Federal, State, and local Floodplain requirements and regulations.
Within the regulatory Floodway, stream alteration activities
shall not be constructed unless the Applicant demonstrates through a Floodway analysis and report, sealed by a qualified professional engineer, that there is no more than a 0.00-foot
rise in the proposed conditions compared to the existing conditions of the Floodway resulting from the project, otherwise known as a No-Rise Certification. A No-Rise Certification is
not required if the community first applies for a Conditional Letter of Map Revision (CLOMR) and Floodway through FEMA.
Maintenance shall be required for any altered or relocated portions
of watercourses so that the flood-carrying capacity is not diminished.
Standards for Critical Facilities.
Protection of Critical Facilities. A Critical Facility is a structure or related
infrastructure, but not the land on which it is situated, as specified in Rule
6 of the Rules and Regulations for Regulatory Floodplains in Colorado, that if flooded may result in significant hazards to public health and safety or interrupt essential services and
operations for the community at any time before, during, and after a flood. All new and substantially improved Critical Facilities and new additions to Critical Facilities located within
the SFHA shall be regulated to a higher standard than structures not determined to be Critical Facilities. For the purposes of this Code, protection shall include 1 of the following:
Location
outside the SFHA; or
Elevation or flood-proofing of the structure to at least 2 feet above the BFE.
Ingress and Egress for New Critical Facilities. When practicable as determined by
the County, new Critical Facilities have continuous noninundated access (ingress and egress for evacuation and emergency services) during a 100-year flood event.
Classification of
Critical Facilities. It is the responsibility of the County to identify and confirm that specific structures in the community meet the criteria as follows. Critical Facilities are classified

USE BY ZONE DISTRICT.
This Division identifies the uses allowed in each zone district and the level of review required for approval. Unless otherwise specified, the level of review
required is based upon the use as a principal use of the property. Development or use of a property for any other use not specifically allowed in the use table and approved under the
appropriate process is prohibited.
3-401. TYPES OF USE REVIEW.
By-Right Uses.
By-Right Uses. /P/ in a cell indicates that the use is permitted by right in the zone district. By-right
uses do not require a Land Use Change Permit. However, unless specifically exempted in Table 3-403, by-right uses are still subject to the standards of this Code, including the use-specific
standards in this Article and the generally applicable standards of Article 7. Failure to comply with general or use-specific standards may result in a code enforcement action.
Uses
Requiring a Permit.
Administrative Review Uses. /A/ in a cell indicates that the use is allowed only if reviewed and approved as an Administrative Review use in accordance with the
procedures of section 4-103, Administrative Review. Administrative Review uses are subject to all other applicable regulations of this Code, including any requirements and use-specific
standards in Article 7, Standards.
Limited Impact Review Uses. /L/ in a cell indicates that the use is allowed only if reviewed and approved as a Limited Impact Review use in accordance
with the procedures of section 4-104, Limited Impact Review. Limited Impact Review uses are subject to all other applicable regulations of this Code, including any requirements and
use-specific standards in Article 7, Standards.
Major Impact Review Uses. /M/ in a cell indicates that the use is allowed only if reviewed and approved as a Major Impact Review use
in accordance with the procedures of section 4-105, Major Impact Review. Major Impact Review uses are subject to all other applicable regulations of this Code, including any requirements
and use-specific standards in Article 7, Standards.
Prohibited Uses.
A blank cell indicates that the use is prohibited in the zone district.
3-402. TABLE ORGANIZATION.
Use Classifications.
In the use table, land uses and activities are classified into general “use categories” and specific “use types” based on common functional, product, or physical characteristics, such
as the type and amount of activity, the type of customers or residents, how goods or services are sold or delivered, and site conditions. This classification provides a systematic basis
for assigning present and future land uses into appropriate zone districts. This classification does not list every use or activity that may appropriately exist within each category,
and specific uses may be listed in 1 category when they may reasonably have been listed in 1 or more other categories.
Multiple Principal Uses.
Multiple principal uses are permitted on a single lot. All of the uses must fall into the permitted use category(ies) for the district as identified in Table
3-403, Use Table. Each use is subject to applicable regulations within that use category, including the general standards in Article 7 and any applicable use-specific standards.
Unlisted
Uses.
Procedure. Where a particular use type is not specifically listed in the use table, an Applicant may request an interpretation of the use table.
Director Determination. The
Director may permit the use type upon finding the standards of this subsection are met. The Director shall give due consideration to the purpose and intent of this Code concerning the
zone district(s) involved, the character of the uses specifically identified, and the character of the use(s) in question.
Director Referral to BOCC. The Director may refer any unlisted
use determination to the BOCC for review and determination.
BOCC Determination. The BOCC shall make an unlisted use determination about any nonresidential use that will:
Require a structure
greater than 100,000 square feet of gross Floor Area;
Typically generate more than 1,000 daily vehicle trips, or
Is anticipated to require more than 250 parking spaces.
Standards for
Approving Unlisted Uses. In order to determine if the proposed use(s) has an impact that is similar in nature, function, and duration to the other use types allowed in a specific zone
district, the reviewing body shall assess all relevant characteristics of the proposed use including, but not limited to, the following:
The volume and type of sales, retail, wholesale,
etc.;
The size and type of items sold and nature of inventory on the premises;
Any processing done on the premises, including assembly, manufacturing, warehousing, shipping, and distribution;
Any dangerous, hazardous, toxic, or explosive materials used in the processing;
The nature and location of storage and outdoor display of merchandise, whether enclosed, open, inside,
or outside the principal building; predominant types of items stored (such as business vehicles, work-in-process, inventory and merchandise, construction materials, scrap and Junk, and
raw materials, including liquids and powders);
The type, size, and nature of buildings and structures;
The number and density of employees and customers per unit area of site in relation
to business hours and employment shifts;
Transportation requirements, including the modal split for people and freight, by volume type and characteristic of traffic generation to and from the site;
Trip purposes and whether
trip purposes can be shared by other use types on the site;
Parking requirements, turnover and generation, ratio of the number of spaces required per unit area or activity, and the
potential for shared parking with other use types;
The amount and nature of any nuisances generated on the premises including, but not limited to, noise, smoke, odor, glare, vibration,
radiation, and fumes;
Any special Public Utility requirements for serving the proposed use type including, but not limited to, water supply, wastewater output, pretreatment of wastes
and emissions required or recommended, and any significant power structures and communications towers or facilities; and
The impact on adjacent lands created by the proposed use type,
which should not be greater than that of other use types in the zone district.
If a proposed unlisted use is not subject to interpretation pursuant to this section, an Applicant may
request a text amendment pursuant to section 4-114, Code Text Amendment.
