HomeMy WebLinkAbout3.0 Correspondencea • (o' October 12, 1982 Mr. Larry Velasquez, Chairman Garfield County Commissioners Courthouse Annex Glenwood Springs, Co. 81601 Dear Mr. Velasquez: In December, 1981, we requested an exemption of two parcels out of a forty acre parcel. In April we re- quested an extension on this request, which was granted. At this time, property descriptions are submitted re- garding the parcels to be established out of the forty acres. I believe providing these descriptions is the final requirement for us to receive exemption approval. Upon final approval, deeds will be prepared and filed to correspond with the parcels described on the attached page. Parcel A will be under the ownership of Jack & Irene Wigington. This parcel of approximately five acres, totally includes an approximate 1.68 acre parcel they now own. As was discussed in the original exemption request, this parcel is an adjustment of property lines only. Parcel B, containing approximately ten acres, includes lots 1, 2, 3 and 4 that were originally requested. This parcel will be deeded in the names of Janice, Edward, Dennis and Ronald Bell. Parcel C is the balance of the forty acre plot and will remain in the names of Jack & Irene Wigington and Jaedro, Inc. The attached descriptions are the survey results conducted by Tim R. Callahan (T.S16397) during December, 1981. The final results of the survey were not available at the time of the initial exemption request. Some minor dimension adjustments have been made to establish property lines along existing fence lines. Your consideration of this request for final approval by the board will be appreciated. Sin er .on 11 0662 county Rd 233 Rifle, Colo 625-4017 aZ 24 4 MEMO TO: GARFIELD COUNTY PLANNING DEPARTMENT GARFIELD CU. rLiiR FROM: CITY OF RIFLE PLANNING DEPARTMENT0 DATE: December 11, 1981 RE: Subdivision Exemption; Ronald L. Bell, Petitioner t77, -.7r DEc 1 4 1981 The parent parcel (Tax Lot 022, 77f acres) is contiguous to the Rifle City limits on its north and western most property lines. The application however is confusing as to whether or not the total 77± acre parcel is one unit. The smaller parcels'being requested are within the Secondary Development zone designation of the Rifle Comprehensive Plan. The Secondary Development zone indicates that there are some utility constraints for City densities within this area. The provision of City utility service to this area may become a solution for utility service to the Good Family ownerships contiguous to the north and east of this ownership. The parcels being created by this request should not create an undue hardship on future urbanization of Graham Mesa. However, the division of the 10 acre parcel into 2.5 acre parcels at a later date as eluded to in paragraph 'D' of the applicants request could hamper future urbanization of this area. Divisions into parcels of less than 5 acres in size create problems with designing City subdivisions as well as small lots tend to become areas of polarization and resist City development of adjacent lands and their ownerships. The Wiggington letter also eludes to this concern. With the development of Graham Mesa, major road and utility line extensions may become necessary to extend through these areas. Staff has some strong reservations with development of smaller lots within this area as a result and wishes to place both the County and the applicants on notice of this concern. At a minimum, development at this time should formally agree to participate in future street and utility improvements necessary to serve this request and surrounding lands. 337 East Avenue P.O.
