Home My WebLink About1.0 Application,/ e UNTYGARFIELD CO 3 April, 1997 IvIr. Anthony Baran 746 County Road 170 Carbondale, CO 81623 Building and Planning RE: Special Use Permit Application Lots 26 & 27, Block 6, Rifle Village South Subdivision Dear Tony: Thank you for your prompt attention to my letter of I April, 1997. I have since discussed with the County Attorney the situation in Rifle Village Sout[ our regulations, and your intent to develop a duplex on lots 26 and27. The Connty Attorney has dernonstrated that the R/L/IJD zone district and County regulations do not have provisions for a zero-lot-line setback, which means that the duplor cannot be dweloped as proposed. The proposal for a duplex on the subjea lots would result in the common property line aaing as the "side yard" between the two lots. The underlying zoning requires a minimum l0 foot setback from the side lot ling for each lot, requiring an oflset distance of 20 feet In his opinion, the final plat for the Subdivision would require to be amended, erasing the common lot line, prior to approval of a building permit application. Once the lot line is erased and the constnrcted, the structure could not be sold as ine that the duolex could be owned bv- one ; be allowed. m one or into one GlcnwoodSprings,*"@r tJ County Comrnissioners must contain the following elements: Floodplain Special Use Permit review; Special Use Permit review for a duplex (please provide the covenants allowing duplexes); Amended Final Plat review for Lots 26 &27, Block 6, Nfle Village South SubdMsion. We have disanssed items 1 and1, itenr 3 would require a preliminary survey, performed by a licensed surveyor, that shows the contemplated erasure of the corrmon line between the subject lots. You may combine all elements into one application under one fee; howwer, if you choose to do this, the application must contain the various elements before it can be scheduled for a public hearing before the Board of County Commissioners. I apologize for the conflicting information you have received. If I may be of further service, please do not hesitate to contact this office. Sincerely, u 2l 3l Eric D.
