CONFERENCE SUMMARY
TAX PARCEL NUMBER: 240506200089 DATE: 2/6/2026
PROJECT: Price and Arnett Community Gathering Facility
OWNERS: Patti Arnett and Harmony Price
ENGINEER/SURVEYOR/OTHER: TBD
PRACTICAL LOCATION: 6577 CR 301
TYPE OF APPLICATION: Administrative Review
ZONING: Rural
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: Residential Medium High
I. GENERAL PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The application should include materials to fulfill any Waiver of Submittal Requirements (Section 4-
202) and Waiver of Standards (Section 4-118) requests. A full copy of the Land Use and
Development Code (LUDC) may be found here: https://www.garfield-county.com/community-
development/land-use-code/
The subject parcel is located south of the Colorado River, between Rifle and Parachute. It is outside
of both municipalities’ Areas of Influence. The property is accessed by what appear to be shared,
private road(s) that access CR 301 to the South.
Applications will need to show legal authorization from all property owners for an application.
Either both individuals named on the vesting deed could sign the application materials, or one may
provide a Letter of Authorization to designate the other as a representative. Similarly, if the
applicant decides to hire a consultant to do the application, both owners can sign a Letter of
Authorization designating their consultants as a representative for the application.
An updated title commitment is recommended for all land use applications.

Community Gathering Facilities is a broad land use category that can allow for a wide range of
specific activities and development requirements. How application’s narrative or general description
lays out the proposals’ uses, operation management plans, and capacity is critical for a successful
request. The application should explain any proposed limits to capacity (including support
contractors, like caterers or equipment rental). For example, if the facility is limited to 100 guests
and crew at any 1 time, this will help staff and referral agencies understand traffic, noise,
wastewater, and related topics. Hours of operation or seasons of operation may help reduce
concerns on impacts on neighboring properties and/or wildlife. These ideas will help the applicant
explain their vision as well as shape the application’s responses to standards and other submittal
requirements.
Water Supply Plan’s are required to demonstrate legal and adequate water supply for the proposed
use, including any required fire suppression or landscaping irrigation. If an onsite well is proposed to
be used, it needs to be properly permitted for the proposed commercial use as well as the proposed
quantity of water. If customers will be required to provide their own water, information on that will
need to be provided in a Waiver of Submittal Requirements request.
Wastewater Management would typically require an Onsite Wastewater Treatment System(OWTS).
Applications would provide an estimate for wastewater treatment demands, and then show that
the onsite geology and soils would allow such a system to be designed and installed. Soil percolation
tests are usually a part of these reports. If portable toilets or other vault and haul solutions are
being proposed, the application needs to request a Waiver of Submittal Requirements from this
section and explain those services. That may include showing where they will be stored onsite,
estimates for how many will be provided, maintenance/cleaning schedules, secondary containment,
and/or related topics. Garfield County Public Health is an important referral agency for land use
applications on these topics.
The application will also need to provide a traffic study. The project’s narrative and possible related
management plans may provide limits on the amount of traffic that will be generated by future
clients. The application should also show adequate legal access to the shared driveway for the
commercial use. Information on the driveway’s physical dimensions and surfacing will be required
to address Section 7-107 and other standards found in Article 7. If a Waiver of Standards is
requested from Section 7-107, the request will need to include an engineer’s stamp and show safe,
adequate access for the project. Proposed parking should meet the standards in 7-302.

C.R.S. § 24-65.5-103 requires that an applicant notify a mineral estate owner who either
(1) is identified as such by the county tax assessor’s records; or (2) has filed in the Clerk and
Recorder a request for notification. If such records do not identify any mineral estate owners,
including their addresses of record, “the applicant shall be deemed to have acted in good faith
and shall not be subject to further obligations....”
We researched the Garfield County Clerk and Recorder’s index of mineral owner requests
for notification per C.R.S. § 24-65.5-103(a)(I)(B) and confirmed that no mineral owner for the
subject property has filed a request for notification. We also confirmed with the Garfield County
Page 3 March 27, 2026
Assessor’s Office that their records do not list any active or inactive mineral owners and that there
are no separate tax accounts for mineral owners on the above parcel.
Although we deem this information to be reliable, it is not to be construed as an abstract of
title, nor an opinion of title, nor a guaranty of title, and the Companies’ liability is limited to the amount
paid for the examination. The effective date of this title analysis is March 27, 2026.
If you have any questions regarding this analysis, please contact me.

Project Narrative and Operations Overview- Impact Analysis
The Homestead Ltd. Community Gathering Facility
Parcel 240506200089 – Garfield County, Colorado
Project Overview
The proposed project involves the use of an existing rural property as a small-
scale community gathering venue. The property will host events such as family
gatherings, weddings, community celebrations, and educational or community-
oriented functions in a rural outdoor setting.
The intent of the venue is to provide a quiet and respectful gathering space that
complements surrounding agricultural and rural residential uses while preserving
the natural character of the land. Events will take place within an open meadow
area of the property that is naturally suited for gatherings and requires minimal
alteration to the existing landscape.
The venue will operate on a limited seasonal basis between May and October
each year.
Site Characteristics
The property consists of approximately 40 acres of rural land characterized by
open meadow areas, lightly wooded slopes, and natural vegetation typical of the
region. The proposed event area and parking areas are located within existing
open grassland areas that are well suited for outdoor gatherings and temporary
vehicle parking.
The size of the parcel provides natural buffering between the event area and
surrounding properties. Existing vegetation, topography, and the overall scale of
the property help maintain privacy and reduce potential impacts to neighboring
landowners.
No significant grading or land disturbance is proposed. The gathering space will
utilize the natural landscape and open meadow areas.
Seasonal Operation and Hours
The venue will operate seasonally between May and October each year. Events
will generally occur between 8:00 AM and 10:00 PM. Amplified music or sound
will conclude earlier in the evening when appropriate in order to maintain
compatibility with neighboring properties and the surrounding rural environment.
Event Capacity and Frequency
Maximum event capacity will be limited to 150 guests. Events are expected to
occur periodically throughout the season, primarily on weekends, with an
estimated frequency of one to four events per month during the operating
season.
Access
Access to the property is provided via an existing rural access road that
connects to County Road 301. The road currently accommodates ranch traffic,
oil and gas service vehicles, utility providers, and property owners, and is
capable of supporting passenger vehicle traffic associated with event guests.
Emergency vehicle access will be maintained via the existing driveway and
internal access routes.
Parking
All event parking will occur on-site within designated grass parking areas
located in the open meadow portion of the property. Parking capacity will
accommodate approximately 50–60 vehicles, which is adequate for events with
up to 150 guests.
No event parking will occur along County Road 301 or surrounding roadways.
Traffic
Events with 150 guests are expected to generate approximately 50–60
vehicles, resulting in roughly 120 vehicle trips per event when accounting for
both arrival and departure. Vehicle arrivals and departures will occur gradually
around event start and end times, minimizing congestion.
Drainage and Grading
The property contains natural drainage patterns that generally flow from south to
north across portions of the parcel depending on localized terrain and seasonal
runoff patterns. Existing natural swales and drainage paths will be maintained.
The proposed event area and parking areas are located in relatively level
meadow areas and will require minimal grading. Natural drainage patterns will
be preserved, or improved to prevent erosion and maintain the existing
hydrologic conditions of the site.
Wildfire and Vegetation Management
The event area and parking areas are located within open grassland areas with
minimal dense vegetation. Vegetation surrounding gathering areas will be
managed to provide defensible space by maintaining mowed grass and
removing dead vegetation where necessary.
The property is located within the service area of the Grand Valley Fire
Protection District, and emergency vehicle access will remain available to the
site.
Compatibility with Surrounding Land Uses
The venue is designed to remain compatible with surrounding agricultural and
rural residential land uses. The scale of the property and its rural setting provide
natural buffers that help minimize potential impacts to neighboring properties.
Events will be limited in size and frequency, parking will remain on-site, and
operational hours will be controlled to maintain a respectful relationship with
neighboring landowners.
Community Stewardship
The property owners are committed to maintaining the rural character of the
land and being good neighbors within the community. Events will be managed
responsibly to ensure minimal impact on surrounding land uses while providing
a welcoming rural gathering space for the community.
Ar#cle 7 Compliance Narra#ve
Parcel 240506200089 - Gar1ield County, Colorado
7-101 Zone District Use Regula#ons
The subject property is located within the Rural zone district in Gar1ield County. The
proposed use is a small-scale community gathering venue located on a rural parcel
consisting of approximately 40 acres. The venue will host events such as family gatherings,
weddings, and community celebrations in an indoor/outdoor setting. The event area will
utilize existing open meadow areas suitable for gatherings and will require minimal
disturbance to the natural landscape. The seasonal and limited nature of the proposed use
ensures compatibility with surrounding agricultural and rural residential land uses.
7-102 Comprehensive Plan and Intergovernmental Agreements
The proposed project is consistent with the goals of the Gar1ield County Comprehensive
Plan, which emphasizes preservation of rural character and compatible land uses within
rural areas. The project represents a low-intensity seasonal use that maintains the
agricultural and rural nature of the property. No intergovernmental agreements are
required.
7-103 Compa#bility
The proposed use is compatible with surrounding rural land uses due to the size of the
parcel and operational limitations of the venue. The property contains approximately 40
acres, providing natural buffering between the event area and neighboring parcels. Events
will be limited to a maximum of 150 guests and will occur between May and October with
hours from 8:00 AM through 10:00 PM.
7-104 Source of Water
No permanent potable water system is proposed for this project. Events will occur outdoors,
(hoping to eventually have indoors in an event barn) and temporary water service may be
provided when necessary. Portable restroom facilities with contamination liner surrounding
them and will include integrated hand-wash stations to provide basic sanitation for guests
during events. The proposed use does not require installation of a permanent water supply.
7-105 Central Water Distribu#on and Wastewater Systems
No central water distribution or wastewater systems are proposed. Portable restroom
facilities will be provided during events and serviced by a licensed provider. For the
capacity on guests allowed we should need no more than two portable restrooms. No
permanent onsite wastewater treatment system is proposed. Waiver of submittal
requirements proposed for this.
7-106 Public U#li#es
The proposed project does not require the installation or extension of new public utilities.
Existing utilities serving the property will remain unchanged. Although an additional power
pole will be installed in coordination with Holy Cross Energy to provide adequate electrical
service for event operations once the event barn is built. All electrical improvements will be
permitted and installed in accordance with applicable standards.
7-107 Access and Roadways
Access to the property is provided via an existing rural access road connecting to County
Road 301. The roadway currently accommodates ranching operations, oil and gas service
vehicles, utility providers, and property owners and is capable of accommodating passenger
vehicles associated with event guests. See traf1ic study for more information.
7-108 Use of Land Subject to Natural Hazards
The proposed event area is located within an open meadow suitable for outdoor gatherings.
The proposed activity will not signi1icantly alter the natural terrain or affect known natural
hazard areas.
7-109 Fire Protec#on
The property is located within the service area of the Grand Valley Fire Protection District.
Emergency vehicle access will be maintained via the existing driveway and internal access
routes. On-site 1ire mitigation measures have been implemented to reduce wild1ire risk,
including removal of downed limbs and selective tree trimming to create defensible space.
In addition, a water-1illed frac tank with 600 bbls. is maintained on the property and
equipped with a pressurized hose system to provide an immediate on-site water source for
1ire suppression if needed.
7-201 Agricultural Lands
The proposed project will not signi1icantly impact agricultural lands. Gathering and parking
areas will utilize existing open meadow areas suitable for event use.
7-202 Wildlife Habitat Areas
The proposed seasonal event use is expected to have minimal impact on wildlife habitat.
Events will occur periodically and primarily during daytime and evening hours, while the
majority of the property will remain undisturbed habitat.
7-203 Protec#on of Waterbodies
The proposed project does not involve development near surface water bodies, streams, or
wetlands. Natural drainage features will remain unchanged.
7-204 Drainage and Erosion
The property slopes generally from south to north, with higher elevations located along the
southern portion of the parcel and gradually descending toward the northern portion of the
property. Natural drainage 1lows from south to north across the site. Minimal grading is
proposed and existing drainage patterns will be maintained.
7-205 Geologic Hazard Areas
The proposed event area is located within an existing meadow area that does not involve
signi1icant grading or disturbance. No known geologic hazards will be affected.
7-206 Wildfire Hazard Areas
The property contains open meadow and lightly vegetated areas typical of rural lands in
Gar1ield County. Vegetation around gathering areas will be maintained to reduce wild1ire
risk and provide defensible space.
7-301 Site Plan
A site plan has been provided showing parcel boundaries, event area, parking areas, access
routes, and existing structures. The site plan demonstrates how the proposed gathering area
and parking function within the property.
7-302 Landscaping
The proposed use will utilize existing natural vegetation and meadow areas. No formal
landscaping is proposed and the natural rural landscape will be preserved.
7-303 Ligh#ng
Exterior lighting will be minimal and used only when necessary during events. Lighting will
be downward-directed to minimize impacts to surrounding properties.
7-304 Parking and Loading
Parking will be provided on-site within designated grass parking areas located within the
open meadow portion of the property. Parking capacity will accommodate approximately 50
to 60 vehicles.
7-305 Signs
No new permanent signage is proposed as part of this project.
7-306 Open Space
The proposed use will maintain the majority of the parcel as open space. The event area and
parking areas will occupy only a small portion of the overall property, less than two acres to
be speci1ic.
Proposed Hours of Operation and Event Schedule
Hours of Operation
The venue’s approved hours of operation will be 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., seven (7) days
per week. These hours establish the allowable operating window for vendor access, event
setup, guest arrival, event activities, cleanup, and guest departure. While the venue is
requesting approval to operate during these hours any day of the week, actual events will
not occur on a daily basis.
Reservation-Only Facility
The venue will operate by reservation only and will not be open to the general public on a
walk-in basis. All events will be scheduled in advance through a reservation process,
allowing management to coordinate staffing, parking, traffic flow, and vendor activities for
each event.
Typical Days of Operation
Although the requested hours allow flexibility throughout the week, the vast majority of
events are anticipated to occur on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Weekend events
will primarily consist of weddings, receptions, rehearsal dinners, family celebrations,
corporate retreats, nonprofit events, and other private gatherings.
Weekday use is expected to be limited and may include:
• Venue tours and client meetings
• Event setup and decorating
• Vendor access
• Maintenance and property upkeep
• Occasional small private or corporate events
The venue is not intended to function as a daily commercial entertainment facility,
restaurant, bar, or concert venue.
Music and Noise Management
To minimize impacts on neighboring properties and preserve the rural character of the
surrounding area, the venue will implement the following operational standards:
• Outdoor amplified music will only be permitted during scheduled private events.
• All amplified outdoor music will cease no later than 9:00 p.m.
• After 9:00 p.m., any remaining event activities will occur without outdoor amplified
music.
• DJs, bands, musicians, and other entertainment vendors will be informed of and
required to comply with the venue’s established sound policies.
• Venue management will monitor compliance throughout each event.
Event Operations
Event activities, including vendor setup, guest arrival, ceremonies, receptions, cleanup,
and guest departure, will occur within the approved operating hours of 8:00 a.m. to 10:00
p.m.
Staff will be present during events to assist with:
• Parking management
• Traffic flow
• Guest safety
• Vendor coordination
• Site cleanup following each event
Guests will be encouraged to depart in an orderly manner following the conclusion of each
event.
Operational Commitment
The venue is intended to operate as a private, reservation-only event venue serving
weddings, family celebrations, agricultural tourism, nonprofit functions, educational
events, and similar private gatherings. Operations will be concentrated primarily on
weekends, with limited weekday activity, and will be conducted in accordance with the
commitments outlined in the Impact Analysis and Comprehensive Plan.
These operational standards are intended to ensure compatibility with surrounding
agricultural and rural residential properties while providing a well-managed venue that
contributes positively to the local community and economy.
Tent/Barn Use, Water Supply, and Wastewater Management
At the present time, the venue utilizes a 30-foot by 60-foot event tent to provide covered
space for weddings, private events, and community gatherings.
If the Special Use Permit is approved, the property owner intends to construct an event
barn in the future to replace or supplement the temporary tent. The proposed barn is
intended solely as a covered gathering space for private events and will not function as a
residence, restaurant, commercial kitchen, or other occupied building requiring permanent
plumbing.
The future event barn will be equipped with electrical service only to provide lighting and
power for event-related activities. No running water, plumbing, permanent restroom
facilities, or wastewater system are proposed for the barn. The structure is intended to
provide shelter and accommodate tables, chairs, and event activities while maintaining a
minimal infrastructure footprint.
Water Supply
The venue does not propose a permanent event water system. Portable handwashing
stations provided with the restroom units will be self-contained and supplied with water by
the sanitation service provider. Caterers and other food vendors will provide any potable
water needed for food preparation or beverage service as part of their normal operations.
Wastewater Management
Restroom facilities for all events will be provided through professionally serviced portable
restroom units. Portable restrooms will be delivered, maintained, and serviced by a
licensed sanitation provider in accordance with all applicable health and environmental
regulations.
Portable handwashing stations will also be provided as needed. These units are self-
contained, arrive with fresh water, and are serviced by the sanitation provider. Wastewater
from these units will be removed from the property by the service provider and will not be
discharged on-site.
Caterers and food vendors will be responsible for supplying any water needed for their
operations and for removing all food waste, gray water, cooking oils, grease, and other
waste generated during food service from the property following each event. No gray water
or food service wastewater will be discharged onto the site.
At this time, no permanent wastewater treatment or sanitary sewer system is proposed for
event operations. Should future improvements require permanent restroom facilities or
utility infrastructure, all required permits and approvals from Garfield County and any other
applicable regulatory agencies will be obtained before construction.
These operational practices are intended to minimize environmental impacts while
providing safe and sanitary accommodations for guests and maintaining compatibility with
the surrounding agricultural and rural residential area.
MEMORANDUM
TO: Harmony Price
FROM : Michael Morrison, PE; Eric Mahoney, EI
DATE: July 6th, 2026
RE: Price Development – Road/Intersection Adequacy Assessment
6577 CR 301 Parachute, CO 81635
A peak hour factor of 0.85 was assumed to approximate the design hour volume from
the ADT data.
Trip Generation Rates and Distribution
The proposed trip generation for the redeveloped land use was established using the
information provided in the CDOT Wedding Venue trip generation memo (attached). The
average entering and exiting rates used are 0.30 and 0.12 respectively, as functions of the
venue capacity. A caveat of the nature of the proposed land use is that the entering and
exiting peak traffic does not occur simultaneously, as vehicles will generally enter prior to,
and leave after the event. Using the rates provided by CDOT and the proposed venue
capacity of 150 guests, the entering and exiting trips generated by the redevelopment are 45
and 18, respectively. Since this property can be accessed from both the I-70 Rulison or
Parachute exits, the analysis considered a scenario where 100% of trips originate from the
west and enter the access via a left turn, as well as a scenario where 100% of the trips
originate from the east and enter the access via a right turn.
TABLE 1 – BASELINE DESIGN HOURLY VOLUMES
FIGURES 2 & 3 – SIGHT DISTANCE (EAST & WEST)
FIGURES 4 - SIGHT TRIANGLES
Auxiliary Lane Requirements
Based on the SHAC 3.13 for a Category NR-C Non-Rural Arterial, auxiliary turn lanes
shall be installed according to the criteria below.
a. A left turn lane with taper and storage length is required for any access with a
projected peak hour left ingress turning volume greater than 25 vph. (Applies to
40 mph and less)
o EB left volume 45 vph > 25 vph – Lane warranted
o Per SHAC 3.5, the auxiliary lane requirements can be waived based on
the low opposing volumes (Baseline << 100 DHV). Therefore, the
auxiliary lane is not warranted.
b. A right turn lane with taper and storage length is required for any access with a
projected peak hour right ingress turning volume greater than 50 vph. (Applies to
40 mph and less)
o WB right volume 45 vph < 50 vph – Lane not warranted
