BASED ON THE EVIDENCE BEFORE IT, and with the modifications imposed by
the conditions hereinafter described, THE BOARD FINDS AS FOLLOWS:
1. Consistency with the Master Plan The proposed subdivision IS consistent with the Eagle
County Master Plan and the FLUM of the Master Plan;
2.. Consistent with Land Use Regulations The proposed subdivision DOES comply with all
of the standards of this Section and all other provisions of these Land Use Regulations,
including, but not limited to, the applicable standards of Article 3, Zone Districts and
Article 4, Site Development Standards
3. Spatial Pattern Shall Be E cient The proposed subdivision IS located and designed to
avoid creating spatial patterns that cause inefficiencies in the delivery of public services,
or require duplication or premature extension of public facilities, or result in a "leapfrog"
pattern of development. Specifically:
(a) Utility and Road Extensions Proposed utility extensions ARE consistent with the
utility's service plan or shall require prior County approval of an amendment to
the service plan. Proposed road extensions ARE consistent with the Eagle County
Road Capital Improvements Plan
(b) Serve Ultimate Population The required finding that utility lines ARE or ARE NOT
sized to serve the planned ultimate population of the service area to avoid future
land disruption to upgrade under -sized lines IS NOT APPLICABLE.
(c) Coordinate Utility Extensions The entire range of necessary facilities CAN be
provided, rather than incrementally extending a single service into an otherwise
un- served area.
4. Suitability, for Development The property proposed to be subdivided IS suitable for
development, considering its topography,, environmental resources and natural or man-
made hazards that may affect the potential development of the property, and existing and
probable future public improvements to the area.
5. Compatible With Surrounding Use The proposed subdivision IS compatible with the
character of existing land uses in the area and WILL NOT adversely affect the future
development of the surrounding area.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF COUNTY
COMIVIISSIONERS OF THE COUNTY OF EAGLE, STATE OF COLORADO:
