PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Sth"NI.<\RY: Special Use Pettn.itapplication for the construction of two temporary 165 foot tall rigid masts
approximately 6 irtches in diameter. Each mast structure is connected at its base to a small footprint steel base plate
that is attached to the earth via steel anchor bolts. Each mast structure is further connected to multiple cable guy
wiresatntultiple heights on the' mast for stability and rigidity and to hold the structl.lre fitrnly in place under all
Wind, ice and snoW design conditions. Each is fitted with two wind speed and direction sensors (anemometefs) at
the90f6otlevel and the 1 S()[oot level and additional temperature and pressure sensors located within the mast
themselves.:Eath anemdrneter itself is a small metal and plastic device similar to a weather vane or propeller
measuring riolonger thanorte fdot.
Neat the bOttom <>fone ofthe masts is a 36 inch by 12 inch by 12 inch data collection electronics unit that is fully
contained in a weatherproof enclosure and powered by a small solar cell unit approximately 24 inches by 20 inches
in area. This data collection unit gathers, processes and stores all the sensor measurement data from the
anernometers and sensors located on the masts, and sends the stored data at regular intervals by commercial cellular
. phone modem service to remote computers. The stated purpose for the masts and related anemometers and senSOrs
is to collect data regarding the wind and weather patterns on the property to detertnine the nature and most
beneficial use ofthe property.
the masts wete initially installed in October 2004 and are intended to be removed within one year. After receipt by
the Department <>fEnvirOfifilental Health (Code Enforcement) ofa citizen complaint, it was detertnined that the
masts represent a "temporary USe" as that teM is used in Chapter II, Article 3, Zone Districts, in the Land Use
Regulations. Ptirsuant to Table 3-300, Residential. AlZI'icultural and ResOufce Zone District Use Schedule, a Special
Use Permit is requited.

PROJECT ])ESCRlPTION
StJMMARY: An application to change zoning from Resource (R) to Resource Limited (RL) on that portion of
Parcel A (9,539.64 sqUare feet) in Eaton Ranch which lies generally north of the centerline of the Eagle River so
thatthe affected area may be re-platted to be part of Parcel B.
When the previous zOne change was approved in 2004 to allow the subdivision of Eaton Ranch into Parcel A
(71.915 acres) and ParcelB (20.008 acres), the intent of the Applicant was to sell Parcel A to allow it to be
developed into a mixed use subdivision. It was desirable at that time to have a portion of Parcel A extend north of
the Eagle River to allow a connection with the property west of Eaton Ranch and north of the Eagle River. When
Eaton Ranch was subdivided, Parcel A was configured in that manner.
Parcel A is now under contract to be sold to the Vail Valley Foundation and ultimately used as open space. There is
o longer a perceived need for the connection from Parcel A to the property across the Eagle River. The purchase
JhITact between the current owners of Parcel A in Eaton Ranch and the Vail Valley Foundation includes a
provision that, prior to closing, the current owner will secure from the County the zone change and a related lotline
adjustment (see File No. AFP-00220) which will cause Parcel A to be entirely south of the centerline of the Eagle
River. This zone change from Resource to Resource Limited will cause the portion of Parcel A which lies north of
11
8/30/05
the centerIine ofthe Eagle River (9,539.64 square feet) to be zoned the same as Parcel B. When the accompanying
plat adjusting the lot line between Parcel A and Parcel B is approved, all of Parcel B will be in the same zOne
district, that is, ResOltrce Limited.

(+] F:INJ)ING: Consistency with Master Plan. [Section 5-230.D.1.] - The proposed amendment
IS consistent with the pmposes, goals, policies and FLUM (Futl.lre Land USe Map) of the Master
Plan.
ST..ANDAR1'J: (;oinpittible withsutrouilding uses. [Section 5-230.D.2.] Whether and the extentto which the
prbposed amehdment is cdtnpatible with e:xistingand proposed uses surrounding the subject land, and is the
appropriate tone district for the land, considering its consistency with the purpose and standards of the proposed
zone diStrict.
the 9 ,5:39.64 square foOt parcel is part of Parcel A in Eaton Ranch. Accompanying this application for a zone
chlinge is an amended final plat which will adjtist the lot line between Parcel A and Parcel B so that the coinmon lot
line between the two parcels geneta11yfoll()Ws the cetitetline of the Eagle River.
Parcel A of Eaton Rancb (71.915 acrepa:rcell()cated mostly south of the Eagle River) is currently zoned Resource
withctirretit uses being agricultuteand gravel mining. Parcel B (20.002 acres located north of the Eagle River)
cUfrefitly has a mix of agricultl.lralatid resideiJ-fialuses. Suburban density residential development exists between
EatdhRanchatid the Edwards Spur Road (Old EdWards Estates) to the east, and south across Highway 6
(Homestead). 1-70 is to the north of Eaton Ranch. The property immediately to the west currently has mining and
agricultl.lral Uses. It was pteviously determined that the Cllrrent zoning (Resource and Resource Limited on Eaton
Ranch) is compatible with the sllrrounding USes. Given the very limited extent of the area to be rezoned, the
proposed zone change will continue to be compatible with the surrounding uses.
[+] FINJ)ING: Compatible with surrounding uses. [Section 5-230.D.2.] ~ The proposed
amendment IS compatible with existing and proposed uses surrounding the subject land, and IS an
appropriate zone district for the land, considering its consistency with the purpose and standards of
the proposed zone district.
STANDARD: Changed conditions. [Section 5-230.D.3.] Whether and the extent to which there ARE changed
conditions that require an amendment to modify the use or density/intensity.
When the previous zone change was approved in 2004 to allow the subdivision of Eaton Ranch into Parcel A
(71.915 acres) and Parcel B (20.002 acres), the intent of the Applicant was to sell Parcel A (south of the Eagle
River) to allow it to be developed into a mixed use subdivision. Given that scenario, it was desirable to have a
14
8/30/05
portion of Parcel A extend north of the Eagle River to allow a connection with the property west of Eaton Ranch
and north of the Eagle River. Parcel A is now under contract to be sold to other parties and used as open space.
There is rio longer a perceived need for the connection from Parcel A to the property across the Eagle River. This
changed condition warrants the proposed zone change.
[+]FINDING: Changed conditions. [Section 5-230.D.3.] - There ARE changed conditions that
requite an amendment to modify the use or density/intensity.
sfANI>AftJ):.. Effectiin nil/utizl environment. [Section 5-230.DA.] Whether and the extent to which the
proposeda'mendfnent would result in significantly adverse impacts on the natural environment, including but not
limited to water, dir, noise, stormwater management, wildlife habitat, vegetation, and wetlands.
The proposed zoue change and the accompanying lot line adjustment are sufficiently limited that no adverse
impacts can be expected on the natural environment. 111 fact, by avoiding access across the Eagle River in this area,
any potentially adverse impacts along the Eagle River that might have otherwise occurred Will become even less
likely.
[+)F'INDING: Effect on natura/environment. [Section 5-230.DA.] - The proposed amendment
WILL Not resu.1t in significantly adverse impacts on the natl.lral environment, including but not
litriitedto water, air, noise, stotmWater management, wildlife habitat, vegetation, and wetlands.
STANDARD: Ciifnltltiniiy need. [Sectioil5-230.D.5.] Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment
addresses a demonstrated community need.
It has been detertrtined that creatirtgpertnanent open space on Parcel A of Eaton Ranch is in the public interest and
ddtesses a community need. the proposed zone change and accompanying lot line adjustmentwill facilitate the
ltisfaction ofthat need.
(+] F'INDING:Community heed. [Section 5-230.D.5.] - It HAS been demonstrated that the
proposed ameridment addresses a conununity need.
STANDARJl: Devi!lopmeittpatterns. [Section 5-230.D.6.] Whether and the extent to which the proposed
amendment would result in d logical and orderly development pattern, and not constitute spot zoning, and whether
the resulting development can logically be provided with necessary public facilities and services.
The existing zoning on Eatoil Ranch has recently been determined to be consistent with the ZOning in the immediate
viciuity and with CllITent and contemplated development patterns. The proposed zone change is on a very limited
scale and does not alter that consistency.
[+] FINDING: Developmentpatterns. [Section 5-230.D.6.] - The proposed amendment WILL
result in a logical and orderly development pattern, WILL NOT constitute spot zoning, and WILL
logically be proVided with necessary public facilities and services.
STANDARD: Public interest. [Section 5-230.D.7.] Whether and the extent to which the area to which the
proposed amendment would apply has changed or is changing to such a degree that it is in the public interest to
encourage a new use or density in the area.
It is in the public interest to facilitate the development of permanent open space in the Edwards area.

DISCUSSION':
Joseph Forinash, Planner, stated that this Was a combined file. He presented a PowerPoint slide show to
liignlight the background of the parcel in question. He stated that the entire parcel was initially zoned resource.
the fact that Eagle County and the Vail Valley foundation had recently purchased parcel A made it such that the
access that Was previously envisioned for this parcel is no longer necessary. He indicated that Staff and Planning
CommisSion findings Were all positive and both recommend approval.
Chairtnart Menconi asked about the lot line,
Mr. Forinash indicated that the property lines according to Global Positioning are not always accurate.
CllaitIfilll1 Menconi opened and closed public comment. There was none.
Commissioner .Runyon asked staff what the benefit would be in making this change.
Rick Pylman stated that there isn't a large benefit to anyone, however it was a concession that the Eaton's
had made under a previous contract. There is no access to this piece ofland. It makes a cleaner division as the
prdperty line goes doWn the .center line of the river in the rest of the subdivision. This merely represents
housekeeping.
