THAT,a map showing the location of the proposed construction of a piped ditch and trail,
• referenced in condition 35 below, is attached hereto as Exhibit"D"; and,
THAT, this Resolution shall serve as an agreement binding the Wolcott Planned Unit
Development to the following conditions:
Standard Condition:
1) Except as otherwise modified by this development permit,all material representations made by
the Applicant in this application and in any public meeting shall be adhered to and considered
conditions of approval.
Wildlife:
2) Per the Division of Parks and Wildlife;the open space proposed south of Interstate-70 shall be
restricted with a seasonal closure to all human and domestic animal activity between December 1st
and April 15th with the following exceptions: i) roadways designed for emergency vehicular traffic
which may also accommodate non-motorized use; ii) ingress/egress to a potential buried water
tank location only by authorized personnel,and; iii)access to G.Jouflas`Resource'zoned lands
located adjacent to,and outside of the PUD Boundary.The adjacent G.Jouflas property is limited to
only uses-by-right in the Resource Zone District.Closure dates may be changed upon agreement of
the County,the developer,and the DPW based upon existing conditions,in particular,snow depths.
The Conservation Easement will include language that matches this condition.
Colorado Geological Survey:
• 3) Prior to Final Plat approval for development on the south side of Interstate-70,and immediately
following Preliminary Plan approval,a minimum of two inclinometers and a series of piezometers
shall be installed and monitored at least once per quarter until application for each respective Final
Plat.This data should be evaluated for global and post-development stability by the applicant's
geotechnical engineer and submitted for review with the Final Plat for each phase.To the extent
reasonably feasible,data from existing inclinometers and piezometers located south of the subject
property should likewise be collected on a quarterly basis.Based upon the data collected the road
alignments,lot location and lot configurations may need to be revised to avoid areas of instability.
4) Building envelopes shall be defined on lots south of Interstate-70,where slope gradients on any
portion of the lot exceed 25%in Planning Areas PA-1, PA-2, PA-3,and PA-4.
5)Written restrictions,within the PUD Guide and on the respective applicable Final Plat(s)shall be
clarified to exclude`active'recreational uses,uses that allow significant grading,or the construction
of occupied structures within Planning Areas PA-23,PA-24, PA-26,and PA-27.PA-25 is for active
recreation.Potentially,a future buried water storage tank may be required within one of the
following planning areas (PA-23, PA-24, PA-25, PA-26,and PA-27). In the event that a buried water
storage tank is required within one of these planning areas,then it shall be subject to site specific
hydraulic and geologic analyses.
6) Concurrent with each applicable Final Plat south of Interstate-70,grading plans shall be
evaluated for slope stability by a geotechnical engineer; a slope stability analysis shall be prepared
• for permanent and temporary cuts or fills greater than five feet in height,or in areas where grading
5
is proposed and existing slope gradients are 25%or greater; stormwater drainage plans shall be
• reviewed by the Applicant's Geotechnical Engineer.
7)Within Planning Area PA-2,which is a proposed large lot subdivision,the geotechnical
evaluation shall be done prior to issuance of building permits,grading permits,or driveway
permits.
8) Soil constraints relative to public improvements will require additional testing and evaluation;
these concerns shall be addressed prior to approval of each respective Final Plat. For individual
buildings,a site-specific soils and foundation investigation shall be required prior to building
permit issuance for every building.
Engineering Department:
9)Applicant will fully fund an Engineering Services Contract up to$200,000 for a US 6 Corridor
Access Control Plan as defined by CDOT.Project limits will include the western boundary at the
Town of Eagle to the eastern boundary at Squaw Creek Road and north to Landfill Road on SH131.
Funds will be provided by the applicant at the time of Request for Qualification (RFQ) award,but no
earlier than March 2014,and be deposited into an Eagle County Escrow Account.If Eagle County
does not award the RFQ contract within 4 years of PUD approval,the Applicant will be released
from this condition.Eagle County will be fully responsible for the management of the US 6 Corridor
Access Control Plan Project.
10)A major vision for the Wolcott PUD is the relocation of US Hwy 6,and improvement to the
Interstate-70 Wolcott Interchange ramp improvement. Prior to approval of the first Final Plat,the
• CDOT shall approve,and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) shall concur with,the Minor
Interchange Modification Request(MIMR).CDOT shall approve the relocation of US Hwy 6.
11)As the applicant on the CDOT 1601 process and the associated Federal Highway Administration
(FHWA) Minor Interchange Modification Request(MIMR)process, Eagle County is obligated to
make the improvements identified in the approved Minor Interchange Modification Request
(MIMR) and System Level Traffic Study.Concurrent with application for the first Final Plat for PUD
which incorporates Phase I infrastructure,the Wolcott PUD should include all on-site
improvements and direct access requirements identified in the MIMR and System Level Traffic
Study.
12) The current PUD Guide and Allowable Use Table allow land uses that generate much higher
traffic than was analyzed in the November 2012 System Level.Any proposed changes in land use
that differ from the land uses that were analyzed in the November 2012 System Level Traffic Study
for Wolcott PUD will include a new traffic analysis to ensure compliance with the ECLUR.
13) Final engineering of the proposed roadways,intersections,and accesses depicted in the traffic
study and conceptual site plan has not yet been completed and will require Engineering
Department approval. However,the location and geometry of the proposed access points on US
Highway 6 has been completed. Engineering considerations may necessitate minor changes to the
Applicant's access geometry,but not access locations on US Highway 6.Approval of the traffic study
and improvement concepts does not constitute approval of any design variances implied in the
Applicant's proposal.Adequate sight distance must be provided at all locations. Design variances
have been discussed and approved in a separate discussion with the Board of County
•
Commissioners and duly noted as part of the record.
6
• 14) East/West Parking Access and Old Town intersection will be constructed as a two-way stop
control.After construction, should traffic operations at this intersection no longer meet a Level of
Service'D',the contingency plan will be a right-in,right-out.
15)The Applicant or Wolcott Metropolitan District agrees to comply with the terms and conditions
of the Colorado State Highway Access Code and be fully responsible for the design and construction
of a westbound right turn deceleration lane at the intersection of East Davis Way and U.S. Hwy 6 if
and when warrant volumes are ever met.
16) The Applicant agrees to construct a single lane roundabout at the intersection of Bellyache
Ridge Road and Sporting Clay as part of their Phase 1 infrastructure. Final design must meet all
County site development standards.
Fire Protection Districts:
17) The Eagle River FPD,and the Greater Eagle FPD recommend that fire hydrant locations be
included in the infrastructure construction plans.The Applicant shall further coordinate the
location of fire hydrants with the Districts to ensure adequate spacing and accessibility.Additional
fire hydrants shall be provided at the intersections of US Hwy 6,and W. Davis Way,Olde Town
Avenue,the access into Tract 203 (PA-32), E.Davis Way and Meadow Trail just outside the highway
right-of-way as labeled on the Preliminary Plan Engineering drawings.Additional fire hydrants
shall also be provided along Bellyache Ridge Road near Lots 119 and 120 (PA-5 and PA-6).
18)The Eagle River FPD,and the Greater Eagle FPD indicate that site specific information is not
presently available for Lots 118, 119, 120,or Tracts 202 and 203 (PA-5, PA-6,PA-19, PA-14, PA-17,
PA-21, PA-32).The Districts reserve the right for a more extensive review of each of these parcels
prior to their individual development.The Applicant has been informed that additional hydrants
may be warranted at that time depending on the size of the buildings,type of construction,and
accessibility for emergency vehicles.Site designs will also need to consider the accessibility and
routing of emergency vehicles.
19)The roadways for Preservation Way and Wolcott Lane shall be adjusted to provide a minimum
travel width for emergency vehicles of 20 feet. If the Applicant desires to maintain these roads for
one-way traffic,then a portion of the roadway may be striped for emergency use,or as a bicycle
lane.
20)The Eagle River FPD,and the Greater Eagle FPD indicate that the roadway widths for W./E.
Olde Town Avenue,W./E.Woodson lane,and W./E.Bentley Lane are adequate provided that the
Applicant includes a 60 foot long, 6 foot wide Emergency Access pullout on the left hand side of
each roadway at the mid-block. Each pullout may be raised with a mountable curb and shall have a
hardscape surface.
21)The parking lots on Tract 204 (PA-10) as shown on the Preliminary Plan Engineering drawings
shall be interconnected with hardscape surfaces to allow emergency vehicles to travel between the
parking lots.From west to east,the 1st, 3rd,and 6th access shall be modeled and adjusted as
necessary to provide sufficient ingress/egress for a 75 foot Quint single-axel fire truck.The
Applicant shall provide evidence that sufficient width is also available for the Quint outrigger.
7
22)The Eagle River FPD and the Greater Eagle FPD indicate that if a restaurant or similar building
is to be constructed on Open Space 516 (PA-21)per the Preliminary Plan Engineering drawings,
then emergency access will be required to accommodate a District tool truck and ambulance.The
maximum grade of the emergency access shall not exceed 10%without approval by the Districts
and the access shall be equipped with a hammerhead or modified hammerhead turnaround.A
standpipe shall be extended from Preservation Way down to the restaurant which allows a District
truck to pump fire protection water down to the firefighting team.
23)The Eagle River FPD and the Greater Eagle FPD indicate that Davis Loop will be converted to a
dead-end road.As such,the road shall have a minimum travel width for emergency vehicles of 20
feet and be equipped with a hammerhead or modified hammerhead turnaround.
24) The Applicant or Metropolitan District will be responsible for implementation of the Snow
Management Plan. The Snow Management Plan has been revised in accordance with the
Engineering Department memorandum dated February 1, 2013.
25) The Eagle River FPD and the Greater Eagle FPD indicate that all commercial,brownstones,and
multi-family buildings shall be equipped with automatic fire sprinkler systems. Standpipe systems
may also be required for buildings three or more stories tall.The requirement for standpipes shall
be individually assessed by the District at the time of building permit application.
26)The Eagle River FPD and the Greater Eagle FPD indicate that a reduction in required fire-flow of
up to 50%is allowed by the Districts when the building is provided with an automatic fire sprinkler
system.The resulting fire-flow shall not be less than 1,500 gallons per minute for the prescribed
duration as specified in Table B105.1 of the International Fire Code.The potable water storage
tanks shall reserve the same quantity for potable water for fire protection use. Based on the
Preliminary Potable Water Study,it appears that the maximum non-sprinkled rate would be 3,500
gallons per minute for three hour duration. By using automatic fire sprinkler systems in the
commercial,brownstone,and multi-family buildings,this requirement can be reduced to 1,750
gallons per minute for two hour duration.The equivalent fire protection storage would be 210,000
gallons.Also,the water used to supply the automatic fire sprinkler systems does not have to be
stored in addition to the 210,000 gallons,but instead may be drawn from the average daily use
storage.
Wildfire Mitigation:
27) Per the Wildfire Mitigation Manager;the Wildfire Hazard Assessment and Vegetation
Management Plan provided with the application calls for neighborhood specific wildfire mitigation
hazard evaluations in Planning Areas No. 1 and No.3 as development plans are finalized.Since
these two areas represent the portions of the PUD most at risk from negative wildfire impacts,it
will be important for the developer to look beyond site-clearing for defensible space and fire
resistant building construction.Vegetative fuel treatments (aka`fuel breaks')shall be identified
with each respective Final Plat for development in these areas.All wildfire mitigation measures
shall be accomplished in concert with the conservation easement values.
28) Per the Wildfire Mitigation Manager;as indicated during the Wolcott PUD Sketch Plan process,
an important element in the design of Planning Area PA-3 and Planning Area PA-1 is adherence to
Section 4-620.J.1.h.,Dual Access of the Eagle County Land Use Regulations.Any proposal for
development that requires access by a Rural Cul-de-Sac shall be required to obtain a variance from
• Section 4-620.J.1.h., Dual Access,as provided herein.The first final plat that creates building lots
8
within PA-1 or PA-3 shall include design drawings for an emergency access connection to PA-4,or if
• possible, directly to Bellyache Ridge Road.The emergency access route should exit PA-1 and/or PA-
3 at the southernmost location that is physically practical.This design shall be subject to review by
Eagle County and the relevant emergency service providers. Planning Area PA-2 shall include a
secondary emergency access connection to Bellyache Ridge Road.
Conservation Easements:
29)The applicant shall use its best efforts to ensure that the G.Jouflas riverfront parcel located
adjacent to the west side of the proposed PUD boundary be included in a Conservation Easement or
subject to restrictive covenant upon approval of the first Final Plat for the Wolcott PUD which
incorporates Phase I infrastructure.The Conservation Easement or restrictive covenant will protect
and preserve the existing values and uses of the property including open space,wetlands,and horse
pasture.Approval of this PUD and any final plat shall not be withheld on the basis of this condition
as this property is not in the applicant's control.
ECO Trails/Eagle Valley Trail:
30)The segment of the Eagle Valley Trail required by the Wolcott PUD shall adhere to the approved
route depicted in Exhibit J to the PUD Agreement,the"Wolcott Eagle Valley Trail and River Access
Plan",with minimal deviation as necessary to accommodate proper engineering design.
31) On property owned by Applicant within the Wolcott PUD Boundary,Applicant shall be
responsible for the cost and preparation of any and all studies,clearance reports,and construction
permits necessary or required by law to allow construction of the Eagle Valley Trail,as more fully
discussed in the PUD Agreement.
The Applicant agrees to provide or fund the preparation of the required studies, clearance reports
and permits in order for Eagle County to apply for necessary permits on behalf of the Wolcott PUD
for construction of the Segments I and II of the Eagle Valley Trail across BLM property,as more fully
discussed in the PUD Agreement.
The Applicant agrees to provide or fund the preparation of the required studies,clearance reports
and permits in order for Eagle County to apply for necessary permits on behalf of the Wolcott PUD
for construction of Segment III of the Eagle Valley Trail across CDOT property,as more fully
discussed in the PUD Agreement.
Eagle County will apply for a permit on the Applicant's behalf for Applicant to construct the western
end of the trail across CDOT property. Eagle County will pay the cost of any additional or further
studies necessary for the trail from the western boundary of the PUD to the Highway 131 guardrail.
Applicant agrees to cooperate fully and provide pertinent study or clearance information for the
Wolcott PUD to Eagle County to facilitate the permit application.
Approval of the first Wolcott PUD Final Plat shall not be withheld or prevent the Applicant from
developing and constructing subsequent phases of the project if CDOT or BLM deny trail
construction on their respective properties.
32) Segments I and II of the Eagle Valley Trail (the"Trail") shall be constructed to meet regional
trail construction standards outlined in the Eagle Valley Regional Trails Plan and the Eagle County
Land Use Regulation documents. Necessary retaining walls and railings should be similar in design
9
to existing trail system boulder walls,mechanically stabilized earth walls (mse) and steel railings.
• The Trail shall be constructed in accordance with the materials described in the construction plans,
or any revisions or addendums thereto. In the event the Applicant desires Eagle County to consider
and accept possible substitutions or'equivalent items',materials or construction for the Trail,
application for such acceptance shall be submitted to Eagle County,together with complete data
substantiating compliance of the proposed substitution with the construction plans.Substitutions
must be approved in writing by Eagle County.Substitutions not properly approved shall be
considered defective work.
Eagle County recognizes that Applicant will preserve a portion of the existing Highway 6 for use as
the trail and Applicant has no control over prior specifications or construction of the existing
highway. Eagle County reserves the right to inspect the highway section of trail and require asphalt
patching or crack sealing as needed prior to acceptance of the trail.
33) Eagle County shall approve the preliminary and final construction plans of Segments I, II and III
of the Eagle Valley Trail in its sole discretion. Eagle County shall have the right to inspect and
approve the completed construction of the Eagle Valley Trail,in its sole discretion.
34) Within the Wolcott PUD,the Applicant shall construct and dedicate the Eagle Valley Trail to the
public of Eagle County. As with other sections of the Eagle Valley Trail, Eagle County will hold the
easement,own the Eagle Valley Trail and be responsible for perpetual management and
maintenance of the Eagle Valley Trail.The Final Plat(s) for PUD,the PUD Guide,and the PUD
Agreement must reflect the public trail dedication of the Eagle Valley Trail,and the management/
maintenance responsibilities for the Trail.The Eagle Valley Trail easement shall be a minimum of
20 feet in width as a standard,with exceptions made where physically necessary,and shall
incorporate all construction items directly associated with the Eagle Valley Trail.
35) The Applicant shall cause G.Jouflas Ranches,LLC to execute an easement agreement acceptable
to Eagle County and shall further cause G.Jouflas Ranches,LLC, CJC Properties Limited Partnership,
or assigns,and/or Wolcott Valley Land Investors,LLC,to execute a ditch and trail improvement
agreement,acceptable to Eagle County,for purposes of Eagle Valley Trail construction east of the
east end of the Wolcott PUD (see ditch location on attached Exhibit"D"). The signed easement
agreement and the ditch and trail improvement agreement,acceptable to Eagle County,and signed
by G.Jouflas Ranches, LLC, CJC Properties Limited Partnership,or assigns,and/or Wolcott Valley
Land Investors, LLC shall be provided to the County by the Applicant within fourteen days of the
closing of the sale of real property within the Wolcott PUD/development by CJC Properties Limited
Partnership and G.Jouflas Ranches, LLC to Wolcott Valley Land Investors,LLC. The County and the
Applicant acknowledge that Eagle Springs Golf Club,Inc.is also a party to the ditch and trail
improvement agreement and that the agreement has already been signed by Eagle Springs Golf
Club, Inc.as of the date of this resolution.
36) No motorized vehicles are allowed on the Eagle Valley Trail other than County-authorized
maintenance vehicles or emergency service vehicles. Five motorized trail crossings are approved
with the Preliminary Plan subject to final design approval by Eagle County. The five crossings are
for Eagle Springs Golf Club, River Recreation Area Riverpark Hall,the G.Jouflas Property Access
Crossing as shown on"Wolcott Eagle Valley Trail and River Access Plan",to the Holland Creek
Metropolitan District water intake and pump house,and to the Jouflas Family barn. The Holland
Creek Metropolitan District intake and pump house,as well as,the Jouflas Family barn are located
outside of,and to the west of the Planned Unit Development boundary. A sixth crossing depicted as
11111
10
"Eagle County Eagle River Recreation Ramp"is subject to final review and approval by the BLM and
• Eagle County.
NWCCOG:
37) The applicant shall provide a copy of the State of Colorado NPDES Stormwater Permit for
Construction sites to the Eagle County Engineer prior to site disturbance.
Bureau of Land Management:
38) The Applicant should be advised that the adjacent public land has current permits for livestock
grazing.Under Colorado statutes,it is the owners'responsibility to construct,and maintain in good
condition,a lawful fence protecting their property in order to recover any damages from trespass
livestock.Should any fence construction be considered along a BLM boundary,the fence standards
should allow for easy passage by big game,i.e.:less than 42"in height with a 12"kick space
between the top two wires.
39)A portion of the development abuts a BLM parcel which includes the Wolcott Post Office and a
portion of the Eagle River,including the riparian corridor and floodplain.The Wolcott Post Office
holds a perpetual right-of-way from the BLM and access must be maintained until such time that
the Post Office relinquishes its right-of-way. ECO Trails has an application pending for a trail right-
of-way across this parcel.There are two parking areas along US Hwy 6 within the BLM parcel,and
social trails extending down to the river to provide public access for fishing. Because of the
realignment of US Hwy 6,the public parking area is lost.Similar public access and parking must be
provided.BLM parcels adjacent to urban-type parks and urban interfaces are often difficult for the
BLM to manage.If the Post Office is moved and public access to the parcel is guaranteed,the BLM
