UL MAJOR ISSUES AND CONCERNS
A. Subdivision R eg ulations. Section 8.52 of the Garfield County Subdivision.
Regulations state that "No more than a tot a l of four ( 4) lots, parcels, interests
or dwelling units will be created from a ny parcel, as that parcel was described in
the records of the Garfield County clerk and Recorder's Office on January 1,
1973, and is not a part of a recorded subdivision; however, any parcel to be
divid ed by exemption that is split by a public right-of-way (State or Federal
highway , County road or railroad) o r natural feature, preventing joint use of the
proposed tracts, and the division occurs along the public 1ight-of-way or natural
feature, such parcels thereby created may, i11 the discretion of the Board, not be
considered to have been created by exemption with regard to the four (4) lot,
parcel, interest or dwelling unit limit a tion otherwise applicable;
Documentation submitted with the application shows that the tract in question
was recorded in the records of the Clerk and Recorders Office in December of
1951 in Book 262, Page 225, as a 534 .05 acre tract of land. Since that time, the
original tract has been split into two smaller tracts and the original tract. Since
only three parcels have been exempted from the tract since that time , there is one
additional exemption parcel that can be requested.
B. Zoning. All of the exemption parcels are consistent with the required two (2)
acres minimum lot size for the A/R /RD zone district.
C. Legal Access All or the proposed parcels have access to C.R. 259 via an access
easement across the larger tract of land. The access easement to all parcels wiJl
have to be legally described on any plat approved by the Board .
D. Wat e r and Sewer. The applicants are proposing to use existing cisterns, supplied
by Farmers Irragation Ditch water.(S ee certificate p{.~ If the Board accepts
these as the source of wat e r, any reso l ution of approval should makeit very clear
that the approval is in no way bas ed on a domestic well approval and no
approval of a domestic well in the future should be based on the Board's
approval of the exemption. Additionally, an adequate number of shares need to
be committed to each parcel or land.
Sewer is provided by ISDS to the existing systems. Soils on the site are
considered to havernoderale constraints for conventional septic tanks and leach
fields due lo slow percolation.
E . Building Constraints: The soils information submitted wilh the application
indicates that buildings could be limited by soils, indicating moderate constraints
due lo shrink-swell pote ntial.
G. Fire Protection. The applicant has had the Rifle Fire Protection District
reviewed Lhe application and the Fire Chief has stated that the parcels in
question are within the District. (See letter pg~~)
H . Easements. Any required easements (drainage, access, utilities, etc .. ) will be
required to be shown with legal descriptions on the exemption plat.
-z ,,,,,
L School Impact fees No school impact fees will be required, since all of the
houses are already existing.
J. Bureau of Land Management: The BLM has noted the types of activities that
can occur on public land and the rights of adjacent property owners. They also
noted that portions of the original property have mineral rights reserved entirely
to the United States. (See letter pg.~·)
