COLORADO 80202 303 672-8300 May 3, 1982 The Board of County Commissioners of Garfield County P. 0. Box 640 Glenwood Springs, CO 81602 Dear Commissioners: Re: Garfield County Airport PUD As the owner of the Garfield County Airport PUD, Rifle Land Associates Ltd. and Mr. Robert Chancellor, General Partner, respectfully request that the Garfield County Commissioners grant an additional six (6) months in which to submit a request for final plat approval on the Mamm Creek Industrial Park. The County Commissioners granted preliminary plat approval for the Mamm Creek Industrial Park on June 15, 1981, in Resolution No. 81-186. The approval contained several conditions which had to be met by Rifle Land Associates Ltd. prior to final plat. Those conditions were as follows: a. Conditions concerning a fire station site, fire hydrant location, drainage patterns and street realignment. b. Building height limitations, consistent with the airport purposes. c. Availability of water service and sanitation service, from Rifle Village South Metropolitan District, if possible. d. Adequate access via improvements to the county road or an interchange on I-70. Board of County Commissioners of Garfield County May 3, 1982 -2- e. Water supply contract with the Airport Authority. Over the past ten (10) months Rifle Land Associates Ltd. has worked diligently to comply with the conditions. It has cooperated with the Garfield County Regional Airport Authority, the Commissioners and others to secure the construction of an interchange on I-70 at Mamm Creek. Rifle Land has been in negotiations with the Rifle Village South Metropolitan District to develop an agreement for the pro- vision of sewer service to the property. Rifle Land has reached agreement with the Airport Authority governing the provision of water service to the airport, which agreement lacks only the quantification of some of the Authority's costs before it is ready for execution. And, Rifle Land has been working with both Rifle and Rifle Village South Metro- politan District in its efforts to resolve the issue of water service. It is anticipated that all of these matters will be resolved in the next six (6) months which will permit Rifle Land Associates Ltd. to seek final plat approval. Although we understand that extensions of time are not granted as a matter of course, the provisions of Section 3.08 of the County Subdivision Regulations would permit an extension. Given the efforts that have been made to date, in coop- eration with several other governmental entities, to meet the County Commissioners' conditions, we believe that an extension, in these circumstances, is both appropriate and logical. In order that we might present our concerns further and answer any questions you might have, Mr. Chancellor requests an opportunity to appear before the Board of County Commissioners at your earliest convenience. We sincerely hope that our concerns can be discussed in the next several weeks. Very truly yours, David W. Robbins DWR:ncr cc: -'Earl Rhodes Davis Farrar
