III IIIy
RESOLUTION
WHEREAS the Board of Counter Commissioners has held hearings pursuant
to the Special District Control Tct, CFS , 1973 32-1-201 et. sea. , on
the petition for formation of the Sopris Metropolitan District , and
IIIWHEREAS at such hearings the Board received and considered documentary
and testimonial evidence from the petitioners and other interested parties ,
such as the Eagle County Planning Commission and the North West Colorado
Council of Governments ,
It is the finding of the Board that :
(a) Adenuate service is , or will be , available to the area through
existing facilities within a reasonable time and on a reasonable basis ,
to wit: Carbondale Sanitation District.
(b) The proposed district is incapable of providing economical and
sufficient service to the area within its proposed boundaries ; the
engineering data supplied by the petitioners was insufficient and the
proposed financial arrangements are excessively costly in light of
similar services in the sane area. In this regard, it should be noted
that the State Health Department indicated that the proposal was incom-
110
patible with State policies and plans for environmental control in the
region in which the proposed district is located.
(c) The area to be included in the proposed district does not have
and will not have the financial ability to discharge the proposed
indebtedness on a reasonable basis. In_ addition to the excessive expense
referred to above , the petitioners ' projected income plan does not appear
likely to achieve its goals.
For the foregoing reasons , the petition for formation of Sopris
Metropolitan District is disapproved.
Done this j `f7;-- daY of August, 1275.
