Resolution 2000-138, Mountain Glen Housing Revenue Bond
David Carter, Housing Director and Jack Gardner, Bond Counsel, presented Resolution 2000-
138, approving the issuance by Mountain Glen Housing Corporation of Multifamily Housing Project
Revenue Bonds (GNMA Mortgage Backed Securities Program) Series 2000, in an aggregate principal
amount of $10,165,000, authorizing a Project Agreement, a Financing Agreement, a Mortgage, a
Mortgage Note and a Residual Receipts Note, and authorizing incidental action.
20
10-02-2000
Mr. Carter stated this project is ready to move forward. There are some issues that require
follow-up action at the Board meeting later today. There are certain actions the County needs to take,
but these are not County bonds. The only obligation for repayment is for the corporation itself and the
bonds are their responsibility. He introduced Jack Gardner, Bond Counsel, to explain the resolution.
Mr. Gardner stated the resolution approves three debt instruments, the majority of them the
bonds. Payments on the mortgage will pay the bonds. He stated the residual receipts note will be
delivered to the developer with the maximum amount being $550,000. The closing will occur by the end
of the year and the actual amount then determined. He stated the Board is also asked to approve the
project agreement between the County and the project so that when the debt is paid, title will come back
to the County free of all encumbrances. He spoke to the financing agreement and the mortgage note and
explained the trust indenture between the corporation and the Bank of Cherry Creek. He pointed to
section 5 which is the County determination required by the Federal Tax laws regarding acceptance of
the title when it is paid off.
Chairman Stone questioned the difficulties with this coming forward. Because Mr. Carter
brought before them some information for future 6320 approvals, he asked for direction and asked if
they can have written up guidelines that will make it easier.
Mr. Carter responded saying the short answer is this is the first the County has done. There has
been no equity or no supported debt. If there is default, HUD will guarantee the bonds and that has been
a long and extended process. He stated the developer had worked with HUD and thought it would
happen more quickly. He stated there have been other issues to resolve.
Chairman Stone asked how this compares with the Lake Creek Village equity.
Mr. Carter stated he has been hassling with the fees involved and those who want to charge the
fees. He stated Lake Creek was the first one the County did. For the apartment projects, the County has
required employee housing of the developers, and because they had the additional commitment, they got
the developers to buy the junior debt. He stated the advantage is its lowest on the totem pole and
allowed the bonds to be sold out on the open market. He suggested this was a degree of protection
which took the place of the equity.
Mr. Gardner stated with the junior debt the senior bonds were more available. The HUD way has
brought a lot to the project and gives a AAA guarantee. Even though the Lake Creek structure is more
complicated in terms of possible risk, it can be done more quickly and more controlled. There was no
waiting for approval which held them up about eight weeks.
Mr. Loeffler stated he wants to be sure that everyone understands they are approving the sale of
the bonds, but it doesn't mean that they'll be on the job site in two weeks building apartments. He stated
another difficulty is that HUD has committed to support the insurance of the bonds and until that
happens, nothing will be done. If it gets approved it will move forward but the mortgage may not close
until December. There will be some time before the work starts.
Commissioner Gallagher moved to approve Resolution 2000-138, approving the issuance by
Mountain Glen Housing Corporation of Multifamily Housing Project Revenue Bonds (GNMA Mortgage
Backed Securities Program) Series 2000, in an aggregate principal amount of$10,165,000, authorizing a
Project Agreement, a Financing Agreement, a Mortgage, a Mortgage Note and a Residual Receipts Note,
and authorizing incidental action.
Commissioner Phillips seconded the motion. The vote was declared unanimous.
Resolution 2000-139, Amendment 21, Tax Cut
Chairman Stone stated the next item is Resolution 2000-139, opposition to Amendment 21 Tax
Cut. He spoke to the meeting held last Tuesday regarding this issue and the opportunity for public
comment.
Commissioner Gallagher spoke to the updated resolution and the addition of the finance
21

site where the new Clinic can be built.. The Crawford family intends to incorporate this lot and the new
Medical Clinic into a future Planned Unit Development for the EI Jebel Commercial Center.
The land in question has been owned by the Crawford Family (Crawford Properties, LLC) since
1961. Zoning on the effected parcel was changed from Residential Medium Density to Commercial
General in April of 1980 (Zc-124-80). No other significant events have been identified that predate this
application.

not planning on selling the property. They will build the building and lease it to the Clinic. He stated
there has never been an official site review.
Commissioner Gallagher asked about public transportation access to the clinic.
Mr. Pratt stated there is a park and ride in EI Jebel and it will stay in its current location which is

related this property is all on the North side of Highway 82.
Commissioner Phillips questioned the connection with Blue Lake.
Chairman Stone stated there is a connection with Gillespie Avenue.
Ms. Williams stated JW Drive is about 'l2 mile north and the bike path is there as well. She
stated in the Master Plan, which will be introduced later, there will be bike paths.
Chairman Stone reviewed the items the Commissioners will need to address. He spoke to access,
water and sewage. He indicated the access proposed will be an improvement. He asked about the water
and sewage and if it will go on to the existing system.
Mr. Merry affirmed that.
Chairman Stone spoke to the conformance being in line. He stated they have found that it meets
with the Mid-Valley community plan as well and the findings are positive. He stated there are all
positive check marks regarding the other standards and it is consistent with the Land Use Regulations.
The spacial pattern is found to be positive, it is suitable for development and compatible with other

the owners to use bear proof trash receptacles. The Planning Commission agreed with Staff, and
maintained the condition.
The applicant also asked for the Planning Commission's opinion on the ownership structure of
the open space parcel, Tract A. The applicant would like to modify the lot lines to allow each lot to
include / encompass part of the proposed open space parcel, and deed restrict the uses in each lot's
section of the open space area. The total open space acreage would remain the same, however, the
Eagle-Vail Metro District would not own the land anymore. The Planning Commission had no
opposition with this idea, and added condition number 6 to address this issue.
The Planning Commission voted to approve file PDSP-OOOll with the following conditions.
1) Except as otherwise modified by this Permit, all material representations of the Applicant in
this application and all public meetings shall be adhered to and considered conditions of approval.
2) Locations of snow and trash storage areas shall be identified on any building permit
application.
3) Dogs, when outside, shall be leashed at all times or be kept in an outside kennel with a roof
that can contain a dog. All garbage receptacles shall be bear proof, as deemed necessary by the Division
of Wildlife memo dated August 31, 2000.
4) The erosion control plan shall be revised to reflect comments by the Geological Survey memo
dated September 5, 2000 prior to Final Plat submittal. A slope stability analysis shall be included in the
soils and foundation investigation for any permanent cut or fill greater than 5 feet in height prior to the
approval of any building permit as per the same memo.
5) All engineering requirements as per a memo dated August 31, 2000 must be satisfied prior to
Final Plat submittal.
6) The proposed property lines shall be amended to encompass the open space parcel (Tract A)
with a Plat restriction (on the Final Plat) to include "no structures or storage." Verbiage to be worked out
at the Eagle County Board of County Commissioner hearing.

review of a Sketch and Preliminary plan for PUD:
STANDARD: Unified ownership or control. [Section 5-240.F.3.e (1)] - The title to all land that
is part of a PUD shall be owned or controlled by one (1) person. A person shall be considered to
control all lands in the PUD either through ownership or by written consent of all owners of the land
that they will be subject to the conditions and standards of the PUD.
The Applicant has demonstrated that the entire site is owned in fee simple by the Eagle-Vail
Metropolitan District.
[+] FINDING: Unified ownership or control. [Section 5-240.F.3.e (1)]
The title to all land that is part ofthis PUD IS owned or controlled by one (1) person.
STANDARD: Uses. [Section 5-240.F.3.e (2)] - The uses that may be developed in the PUD
shall be those uses that are designated as uses that are allowed, allowed as a special use or allowed as
a limited use in Table 3-300, "Residential, Agricultural and Resource Zone Districts Use Schedule", or
Table 3-320, "Commercial and Industrial Zone Districts Use Schedule", for the zone district designation
in effectfor the property at the time of the applicationfor PUD. Variations of these use designations
may only be authorized pursuant to Section 5-240 F.3f, Variations Authorized.
Generally, only one single family home would be allowed on the Oleson property if it were to
remain in the Resource zoning; the lot is currently of a legal non-conforming status. By incorporating it
into the Eagle-Vail PUD, the lot may be subdivided smaller.
[+] FINDING: Uses. [Section 5-240.F.3.e (2)]
The uses that may be developed in the PUD ARE NOT uses that are designated as uses that are
allowed, allowed as a special use or allowed as a limited use in Table 3-300, "Residential, Agricultural
and Resource Zone Districts Use Schedule" for the zone district designation in effect for the property at
the time ofthe application for PUD. However, variations MAY be granted along with approval of the
combined Sketch and Preliminary Plan.
STANDARD: Dimensional Limitations. [Section 5-240.F.3.e (3)] - The dimensional
limitations that shall apply to the PUD shall be those specified in Table 3-340, "Schedule of
Dimensional Limitations'~for the zone district designation in effect for the property at the time of the
applicationfor PUD. Variations of these dimensional limitations may only be authorized pursuant to
Section 5-240 F.3f, Variations Authorized. provided variations shall leave adequate distance between
buildings for necessary access and fire protection, and ensure proper ventilation, light, air and
snowmelt between buildings.
The current zone district is Resource with a 35 acre minimum. The current parcel is only 5 acres,
creating a parcel of non-conforming status. The lot size is also much larger, and out of context with the
surrounding PUD lot sizes.
[+] FINDING: Dimensional Limitations. [Section 5-240.F.3.e (3)]
The dimensional limitations that shall apply to the PUD ARE NOT those specified in Table 3-
340, "Schedule of Dimensional Limitations", for the zone district designation in effect for the property at
the time of the application for PUD. However, variations MAYbe granted along with approval of the
combined Sketch and Preliminary Plan.
STANDARD: Off-Street Parking and Loading. [Section 5-240.F.3.e (4)] - Off-street parking
and loading provided in the PUD shall comply with the standards of Article 4, Division 1, Off-Street
Parking and Loading Standards. A reduction in these standards may be authorized where the applicant
demonstrates that:
(a) Shared Parking. Because of shared parking arrangements among uses within the PUD that
do not require peak parkingfor those uses to occur at the same time, the parking needs of residents,
33
10-02-2000
guests and employees of the project will be met; or
(b) Actual Needs. The actual needs of the project's residents, guests and employees will be less
than those set by Article 4, Division 1, Off-Street Parking and Loading Standards. The applicant may
commit to provide specialized transportation services for these persons (such as vans, subsidized bus
passes, or similar services) as a means of complying with this standard.
With each lot having a garage and a small driveway, parking standards will conform to the
requirements of the Eagle County Land Use Regulations.
[+] FINDING: Off-Street Parking and Loading. [Section 5-240.F.3.e (4)
It HAS been demonstrated that off-street parking and loading provided in the PUD complies with
the standards of Article 4, Division I, Off-Street Parking and Loading Standards, without a necessity for
a reduction in the standards.
STANDARD: Landscaping. [Section 5-240.F.3.e (5)] - Landscaping provided in the PUD
shall comply with the standards of Article 4, Division 2, Landscaving and Illumination Standards.
Variations from these standards may be authorized where the applicant demonstrates that the proposed
landscaping provides sufficient buffering of uses from each other (both within the P UD and between the
PUD and surrounding uses) to minimize noise, glare and other adverse impacts, creates attractive
streetscapes and parking areas and is consistent with the character of the area.
As one of the lots has an existing home with established landscaping, and the other two
proposed lots shall be subject to the Eagle-Vail Design and Review Board standards, a concept
landscaping plan is not necessary.
[+] FINDING: Landscaping. [Section 5-240.F.3.e (5)]
Landscaping provided in the PUD DOES comply with the standards of Article 4, Division 2,
Landscaping and Illumination Standards.
STANDARD: Signs. [Section 5-240.F.3.e (6)] - The sign standards applicable to the PUD
shall be as specified in Article 4, Division 3, Sign Regulations. unless, as provided in Section 4-340 D.,
Si$!ns Allowed in a Planned Unit Develovment (PUD). the applicant submits a comprehensive sign plan
for the PUD that is determined to be suitable for the PUD and provides the minimum sign area
necessary to direct users to and within the P UD.
No signs are proposed as part ofthis application; any future signs shall be subject to those found
in the Eagle-Vail PUD.
[+] FINDING: Signs. [Section 5-240.F.3.e(6)]
The sign standards applicable to the PUD ARE NOT as specified in Article 4, Division 3, Sign
Regulations. However, the current Eagle-Vail PUD has a comprehensive sign plan, as provided in
Section 4-340 D., Signs Allowed in a Planned Unit Development (PUD), that IS suitable for the PUD
and provides the minimum sign area necessary to direct users to and within the PUD.
STANDARD: Adequate Facilities. [Section 5-240.F.3.e (7)] - The applicant shall demonstrate
that the development proposed in the Preliminary Planfor PUD will be provided adequatefacilitiesfor
potable water supply, sewage disposal, solid waste disposal, electrical supply, fire protection and roads
and will be conveniently located in relation to schools, police and fire protection, and emergency
medical services.
All the existing facilities (water, sewer, electricity, telephone, etc) currently servicing the Eagle-
Vail PUD will be connected to the Oleson property.
[+] FINDING: Adequate Facilities. [Section 5-240.F.3.e (7)]
The Applicant HAS clearly demonstrated that the development proposed in the Preliminary Plan
for PUD will be provided adequate facilities for sewage disposal, electrical supply, and roads; the

relation to schools, police and fire protection, and emergency medical services.
STANDARD: Improvements. [Section 5-240.F.3.e (8)] - The improvements standards
applicable to the development shall be as specified in Article 4, Division 6, Imvrovements Standards.
Provided, however, the development may deviate from the County's road standards, so the development
achieves greater efficiency of infrastructure design and installation through clustered or compact forms
of development or achieves greater sensitivity to environmental impacts, when the following minimum
design principles are followed:
(a) Safe, Efficient Access. The circulation system is designed to provide safe, convenient access
to all areas of the proposed development using the minimum practical roadway length. Access shall be
by a public right-of-way, private vehicular or pedestrian way or a commonly owned easement. No
roadway alignment, either horizontal or vertical, shall be allowed that compromises one (1) or more of
the minimum design standards of the American Association of State Highway Officials (AASHTO) for
that functional classification of roadway.
(b) Internal Pathways. Internal pathways shall be provided to form a logical, safe and
convenient system for pedestrian access to dwelling units and common areas, with appropriate linkages
off-site.
(c) Emergency Vehicles. Roadways shall be designed to permit access by emergency vehicles to
all lots or units. An access easement shall be granted for emergency vehicles and utility vehicles, as
applicable, to use private roadways in the development for the purpose of providing emergency services
and for installation, maintenance and repair of utilities.
(d) Principal Access Points. Principal vehicular access points shall be designed to provide for
smooth traffic flow, minimizing hazards to vehicular, pedestrian or bicycle traffic. Where a PUD abuts
a major collector, arterial road or highway, direct access to such road or highway from individual lots,
units or buildings shall not be permitted Minor roads within the PUD shall not be directly connected
with roads outside of the PUD, unless the County determines such connections are necessary to
maintain the County's road network
(e) Snow Storage. Adequate areas shall be provided to store snow removed from the internal
street network and from off-street parking areas.
As almost all of the infrastructure of the Eagle-Vail PUD is established, few improvements will
be made. All improvements necessary for the new driveway shall be constructed according to the Final
Plat. Included on this plat will be locations for snow storage and trash, turning areas, driveway access
points, etc.
[+] FINDING: Improvements. [Section 5-240.F.3.e (8)]
AS CONDITIONED It HAS been clearly demonstrated that the improvements standards
applicable to the development will be as specified in Article 4, Division 6, Improvements Standards
regarding:
(a) Safe, Efficient Access.
(b) Internal Pathways.
( c) Emergency Vehicles
(d) Principal Access Points.
(e) Snow Storage.
STANDARD: Compatibility With Surrounding Land Uses. [Section 5-240.F.3.e (9)] - The
development proposed for the PUD shall be compatible with the character of surrounding land uses.
Currently, the 5 acre parcel is larger than adjacent and surrounding lot dimensions. By
subdividing this parcel into the 3 lots, the site will be more compatible with the character of the
surrounding uses.
[+] FINDING: Compatibility With Surrounding Land Uses. [Section 5-240.F.3.e (9)]
The development proposed for the PUD IS compatible with the character of surrounding land
35
10-02-2000
uses.
STANDARD: Consistency with Master Plan. [Section 5-240.F.3.e (10)] - The PUD shall be
consistent with the Master Plan, including, but not limited to, the Future Land Use Map (FLUM).
The consideration of the relevant master plans during sketch plan review is on a broad
conceptual level, i. e, how a proposal compares to basic planning principles. As a development proposal
moves from sketch plan to preliminary plan review, its conformance or lack thereof to aspects of the
master plans may not necessarily remain static. THE MASTER PLAN ANALYSES BELOW
CONSIDER THE PROPOSAL AS SUBMITTED.

EAGLE COUNTY COMPREHENSIVE HOUSING PLAN
VISION STATEMENT: Housing for local residents is a major priority of Eagle County. There
should be a wide variety of housing to fulfill the needs of all its residents, including families, senior
citizens, and those who work here. Elements of Eagle County's vision for housing are:
NOTE: (plus or minus' are added before the elements to show the conformance of the proposal
in relation to the vision statement)
[+] Housing is a community-wide issue.
[+] Housing should be located in close proximity to existing community centers, as defined in the
Eagle County master plan.
[+] Development of local residents housing should be encouraged on existing transit routes.
[nla] Housing is primarily a private sector activity [but] without the active participation of
government, there will be only limited success
[nla] It is important to preserve existing local residents housing.
[+] Persons who work in Eagle County should have adequate housing opportunities within the
county
36
10-02-2000
[n/a] Development applications that will result in an increased need for local residents housing
should be evaluated as to whether they adequately provide for this additional need, the same way as they
are evaluated for other infrastructure needs
As this proposal will be part of an existing subdivision, Staff can make a favorable finding based
on the fact Eagle-Vail PUD is currently consistent with the Master Plans, and that the Oleson property is
surrounded by the PUD and will become part of it as well.
[+] FINDING: Consistency with Master Plan. [Section 5-240.F.3.e (10)]
The PUD IS consistent with the Master Plan, including, but not limited to, the Future Land Use Map
(FLUM).
STANDARD: Phasing [Section 5-240.F.3.e (11)] - The Preliminary Planfor PUD shall
include a phasing plan for the development. If development of the PUD is proposed to occur in phases,
then guarantees shall be provided for public improvements and amenities that are necessary and
desirable for residents of the project, or that are of benefit to the entire County. Such public
improvements shall be constructed with the first phase of the project, or, if this is not possible, then as
early in the project as is reasonable.
Not applicable / necessary.
[+] FINDING: Phasing Section 5-240.F.3.e (11)
A phasing plan IS NOT necessary for this development.
STANDARD: Common Recreation and Open Space. [Section 5-240.F.3.e (12)] - The PUD
shall comply with the following common recreation and open space standards.
(a) Minimum Area. It is recommended that a minimum of 25% of the total PUD area shall be
devoted to open air recreation or other usable open space, public or quasi-public. In addition, the PUD
shall provide a minimum of ten (10) acres of common recreation and usable open space lands for every
one thousand (1,000) persons who are residents of the PUD. In order to calculate the number of
residents of the PUD, the number of proposed dwelling units shall be multiplied by two and sixty-three
hundredths (2.63), which is the average number of persons that occupy each dwelling unit in Eagle
County, as determined in the Eagle County Master Plan.
(1) Areas that Do Not Count as Open Space. Parking and loading areas, street right-of-ways,
and areas with slopes greater than thirty (30) percent shall not count toward usable open space.
(a) Areas that Count as Open Space. Water bodies, lands within critical wildlife habitat
areas, riparian areas, and one hundred (100) year flood plains, as defined in these Land Use
Regulations, that are preserved as open space shall count towards this minimum standard, even when
they are not usable by or accessible to the residents of the PUD. All other open space lands shall be
conveniently accessible from all occupied structures within the PUD.
(2) Improvements Required. All common open space and recreational facilities shall be shown
on the Preliminary Planfor PUD and shall be constructed andfully improved according to the
development schedule establishedfor each development phase of the PUD.
(3) Continuing Use and Maintenance. All privately owned common open space shall continue
to conform to its intended use, as specified on the Preliminary Planfor PUn. To ensure that all the
common open space identified in the PUD will be used as common open space, restrictions and/or
covenants shall be placed in each deed to ensure their maintenance and to prohibit the division of any
common open space.
(4) Organization. If common open space is proposed to be maintained through an association
or nonprofit corporation, such organization shall manage all common open space and recreational and
cultural facilities that are not dedicated to the public, and shall provide for the maintenance,
administration and operation of such land and any other land within the PUD not publicly owned, and
secure adequate liability insurance on the land The association or nonprofit corporation shall be
established prior to the sale of any lots or units within the PUD. Membership in the association or
37
10-02-2000
nonprofit corporation shall be mandatory for all landowners within the PUD.
With the extremely close proximately to the Eagle-Vail Golf course, trails, and other Eagle-Vail
recreation facilities, and that the Oleson property will be included within the Eagle-Vail PUD, Staff can
make a favorable finding
[+] FINDING: Common Recreation and Open Space. [Section 5-240.F.3.e (12)]
The PUD HAS demonstrated that the proposed development will comply with the common
recreation and open space standards with respect to:
(a) Minimum area;
(b) Improvements required;
(c) Continuing use and maintenance; or
(d) Organization.
However, the Applicant MAYbe able to demonstrate in the Preliminary Plan that the proposed
development will comply with the common recreation and open space standards.
STANDARD: Natural Resource Protection. [Section 5-240.F.3.e (13)] - The PUD shall
consider the recommendations made by the applicable analysis documents, as well as the
recommendations of referral agencies as specified in Article 4, Division 4, Natural Resource Protection
Standards.
Being surrounded by an existing PUD, the site adequately addresses this section.
FINDING: Natural Resource Protection. [Section 5-240.F.3.e (13)]
The PUD DOES demonstrate that the recommendations made by the applicable analysis
documents available at the time the application was submitted, as well as the recommendations of
referral agencies as specified in Article 4, Division 4, Natural Resource Protection Standards, have been
considered.
Pursuant to Eagle County Land Use Regulations Section 5-280.B.3.e. Standards for the
review of both a Sketch Plan, and Preliminary Plan for Subdivision:
STANDARD: Consistent with Master Plan. [Section 5-280.B.3.e (1)] - The proposed

those found within the Eagle County Land Use Regulations as well.
[+] FINDING: Consistent with Land Use Regulations. [Section 5-280.B.3.e (2)]
The Applicant HAS fully demonstrated that the proposed subdivision complies 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.
STANDARD: Spatial Pattern Shall Be Efficient. [Section 5-280.B.3.e (3)] - The proposed
subdivision shall be 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.
(a) Utility and Road Extensions. Proposed utility extensions shall be consistent with the utility's
service plan or shall require prior County approval of an amendment to the service plan. Proposed
road extensions shall be consistent with the Eagle County Road Capital Improvements Plan.
(b) Serve Ultimate Population. Utility lines shall be sized to serve the planned ultimate
population of the service area to avoid future land disruption to upgrade under-sized lines.
(c) Coordinate Utility Extensions. Generally, utility extensions shall only be allowed when the
entire range of necessary facilities can be provided, rather than incrementally extending a single service
into an otherwise un-served area.
By connecting to the existing infrastructure, this proposal will not cause inefficiencies, nor will it
be a leapfrog pattern of development. In fact, this application will enhance the connectivity of the
property's immediate area.
FINDING: Spatial Pattern Shall Be Efficient. [Section 5-280.B.3.e (3)]
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.
STANDARD: Suitability for Development. [Section 5-280.B.3.e (4)] - The property proposed
to be subdivided shall be 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.
[+] FINDING: Suitability for Development. [Section 5-280.B.3.e (4)]

Requirements for a Zone Chan~e - Eagle County Land Use Regulations Section 5-230.D.,
Standards for Amendment to the Official Zone District Map:
STANDARD: Consistency with the Master Plan. [Section 5-230.D.l] Whether and extent to
which the proposed amendment is consistent with the purposes, goals, policies and FLUM of the Master
Plan.
The current zoning maps presently show the Oleson property as part of the Eagle-Vail PUD. On
approval, this proposal will be part of the existing subdivision which already is in conformance with the
Master Plans. Staff can make a favorable finding.
[+] FINDING: Consistency with the Master Plan. [Section 5-230.D.l] The proposed zone
change designation IS consistent with the purposes, goals, policies and FLUM of the Eagle County
Master Plan.
STANDARD: Compatible with surrounding uses. [Section 5-230.D.2] Whether and the extent
to which the proposed amendment is compatible with existing and proposed uses surrounding the
subject land, and is the appropriate zone district for the land, considering its consistency with the
purpose and standards of the proposed zone district;
By changing the zoning from Resource to that of the Eagle-Vail PUD, the property would be
brought into conformity with the surrounding zoning, and cease to be of a non-conforming status (5 acre
parcel with Resource zoning).
[+] FINDING: Compatible with surrounding uses. [Section 5-230.D.2] The zone amendment
IS compatible with the uses that surround the applicant's property, and IS the appropriate zone district
for the land.
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;
Since the time of the original Oleson Ranch, the Eagle-Vail PUD (which now sits on all of the
original ranch property except for the present day 5 acre parcel), has grown all around the remaining
Oleson homestead site creating an island of Resource zoning in the Eagle-Vail PUD. This 5 acre parcel
is now out of context with rest of the community. To be more compatible, the density should increase.
[+] FINDING: Changed conditions. [Section 5-230.D.3] There ARE changed conditions that
require an amendment to modify the density and intensity.
STANDARD: Effect on natural environment. [Section 5-230.D.4] Whether and the extent to
which the proposed amendment would result in significantly adverse impacts on the natural
environment, including but not limited to water, air, noise, storm water management, wildlife habitat,
vegetation, and wetlands;
This proposal intends to preserve the natural environment surrounding the new development as
40
10-02-2000
much as possible. This is one of the reasons that there will be building envelopes. By siting the homes
in the most suitable locations (considering drainage, amount of vegetation which will be disturbed, etc),
using building envelopes, the development minimizes environmental impacts.
[+] FINDING: Effect on natural environment. [Section 5-230.D.4] The proposed amendment
WILL NOT result in significantly adverse impacts to the natural environment.
STANDARD: Community need. [Section 5-230.D.5] Whether and the extent to which the
proposed amendment addresses a demonstrated community need;
Housing demands in this valley are ever present, and are therefore a community need.
[+] FINDING: Community need. [Section 5-230.D.5] The proposed amendment DOES address
a community need.
STANDARD: Development patterns. [Section 5-230.D.6] Whether and the extent to which the
proposed amendment would result in a 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; and
As this property is surrounded by the existing Eagle-Vail PUD, the incorporation of this
development would be much more logical than having a "spot" zoning of the Resource district in the
middle of Eagle- Vail.
[+] FINDING: Development patterns. [Section 5-230.D.6] The proposed amendment WILL
result in a logical and orderly development pattern and not constitute spot zoning. Further, the resulting
development can 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.
[+] FINDING: Public interest. [Section 5-230.D.7] The extent to which the area to which the
amendment would apply HAS changed and continues to change is such that it is in the public interest to
encourage a new density in the area.

ofthe Eagle County Land Use Regulations. There are no standards related to this LUR file, but is
subject to the same standards in Section 5-230. D Requirements for a Zone Change - Standards for
Amendment to the Text of These Land Use Regulations or the Official Zone District Map. Staff finds the
amendment to the PUD acceptable, and has no issues with the changes.
Ms. Skinner showed views from the lots and the entrances into the lots and the view to the 18th
fairway.
Rick Plyman, Peter Jamar Associates, and Bruce Mielke, Eagle- Vail Metropolitan District, were
present for the hearing.
Mr. Plyman stated this property has always been an exception to the Eagle-Vail PUD. The
previous applications have all been presented as a separate PUD. He stated a big difference is that this
development is met to become part of the Eagle-Vail PUD. He stated the density has been lowered quite
a bit. The property was purchased as a defensive move and did so by purchasing the property and doing
a low density development. He explained the previous applications were met with staff and
neighborhood opposition. He stated they have good neighborhood support for this plan. He stated one
issue that came up in discussion with the Planning Commission was when this was first submitted to the
County, they showed the existing house as one lot and two additional lots. Through input from the
neighbors and the Metropolitan District. rather than the Metro District owning the land, to include it in
the single family lots and deed restrict it. It is visual open space and isn't meant to be used as a public
park. They talked about that with the Planning Commission who supported the idea so they have
amended the drawings of the lots. He showed an original map showing the lots. They would propose to
41
10-02-2000
amend that with the property lines extending to the corner of the property with part of the open space
going with lots 3 and 2 and plat note restrictions for development of the open space. He stated at final
plat they would create the adjusted property lines. He stated they are in agreement with staff conditions
and they have no issues. They will be the only three lots in Eagle-Vail with bear proof trash cans. He
stated they probably will put those out on the street. They will satisfy all concerns of the Engineering
Department.
Chairman Stone asked for public comment. There was none. He asked why the three different
files and what those mean.
Ms. Skinner explained this has never been subdivided so they must use the Preliminary Plan
process combined with Sketch Plan. She stated the LUR file is a separate file to monitor the Land Use
Regulation amendments.
Ms. Black stated the Eagle-Vail PUD is unique and has been adopted is part of the Land Use
Regulations.
Ms. Skinner stated because this has never been included in the Eagle-Vail PUD they are now
asking for a zone change to be incorporated into that PUD.
Commissioner Phillips asked about the driveway and asked if they will be requesting the County
maintain the road.
Mr. Plyman stated that will be a private driveway.
Chairman Stone stated he is glad to see this property find an eventual home. He sees this as a
good final destination. He asked the findings be included in the minutes.
Ms. Skinner stated condition number 6 can have the verbiage altered if required.
Chairman Stone read the conditions for PDSP-OOOll, as follows:

1041-0029, Edwards Drinking Water Facility
Ray Merry, presented 1041-0029, Edwards Drinking Water Facility. He stated this was a 1041
Permit Application for the Site Selection and Construction of Major New Domestic Water Treatment
System; a Major Extension of an Existing Domestic Water System and Efficient Utilization of a
Municipal Water Project.
The Upper Eagle Regional Water Authority proposes to construct a new 10 million gallon per
day (MGD) water treatment plant to serve an area currently being served by the low pressure zone ofthe
Avon Water Treatment Plant. This service area includes Arrowhead, Berry Creek, Edwards and
Cordillera/Squaw Creek Metropolitan districts.
The proposed facility would consist of a raw water intake structure in the Eagle River, gravity
feeding raw water to a wet well containing pumps to convey water to a new water treatment plant.
Treated water will be introduced into the existing distribution system at an existing 12-inch water main
located within The Reserve PUD.
The treatment capacity of the plant would initially be 5 MGD. The building footprint and most
of the interior infrastructure would be built initially to accommodate future incremental expansions of
capacity up to 10 MGD. Capacity increases from 5 MGD to 10 MGD would be accomplished by the
addition of 0.75 MGD treatment units and can be done more than one at a time.
Staff recommended approval with the following conditions:
a. All material representations presented by applicant will become conditions of the application.
b. The Regional Water Authority shall adhere to all conditions outlined in the letter from the
Water Quality Control Division, dated September 8, 2000 regarding 401 certification BMPs.
c. Final construction plans shall conform to geotechnical recommendations contained in the April
12,2000 Hepworth - Pawlak Geotechnical report.
43
10-02-2000
d. Construction activities in the Eagle River shall be coordinated with the Division of Wildlife to
avoid impacts to fish spawning cycles.
The applicant should provide additional evidence and testimony regarding the need for a 10
MGD water treatment plant along with discussion about what triggers capacity increases. The applicant
should discuss the capacity experienced on a peak day at the Avon Water Treatment Plant and the need
to design based on 100% occupancy of existing commercial and residential uses. The applicant should
explain their secured water rights and augmentation plans to demonstrate how the application can move
forward without the Water Court approved change in the diversion point.
Staff findings are shown on staff report and as follows:
In accordance with Section 6.03.15 of the Eagle County Land Use Regulations, and as more
specifically described in the application for the Edwards Drinking Water Facility.

g. The proposed development and the potential diversions of water from the source
development area will not significantly deteriorate aquatic habitats, marshlands and wetlands,
groundwater recharge areas, steeply sloping or unstable terrain, forests and woodlands, critical
wildlife habitats, big game migratory routes, calving grounds, migratory ponds, nesting areas and
the habitats of rare and endangered species, public outdoor recreational areas, and unique areas
of geologic, historic or archaeological importance;
Finding: The proposed development or its associated collector or distribution system will not
significantly deteriorate aquatic habitats, marshlands and wetlands, groundwater recharge areas, steeply
sloping or unstable terrain, forests and woodlands, critical wildlife habitat, big game migratory routes,
calving grounds, migratory ponds, nesting areas and the habitats of rare and endangered species, public
outdoor recreation areas, and unique areas of geologic, historic, or archaeological importance.
h. The salinity and advance wastewater treatment offset plans required by Subsections
6.05.13(16) and (17) have been approved by the Permit Authority and required fees associated
therewith, if any, have been paid;
Finding: This finding is not applicable. No wastewater treatment is associated or proposed by
this application.
i. The construction of structures, buildings, and improvements associated with the
proposed development will not significantly impact existing or proposed communities within the
development area and source development area.
Finding: The construction of structures, buildings and improvements associated with the
proposed development will not significantly impact existing or proposed communities within the
development area and source development area.
Mr. Merry explained that the original staff report conflicts with the conclusions that have now
been found in support of the 1041 application. Mr. Merry suggested he wanted the applicant to provide
the information to the Board. He stated he asked for a demonstration of the need for a 10 million gallon
a day plan. He stated the information came forward at the Planning Commission. The other issue was
one concerning water rights. He stated Glen Porzak explained the secured water rights, but as a water
Sl
10-02-2000
district they can draw the water out in one location and re-enter at another. After hearing this
information the Planning Commission changed their stand and then approved the file. He spoke to the
changes. He read from staffs report, Staffs recommendation to the Planning Commission as follows:
"Staff s recommendation to the Planning Commission was to deny the application based
primarily on insufficient evidence justifying the need for a water treatment plant of 10 MGD capacity.
In addition, they needed to have the issue of secured water rights for a facility that size better explained.
The applicant submitted a rebuttal letter addressing staffs negative findings along with additional
testimony from their consultants. Staff was convinced that all approval criteria were adequately
addressed to support approval but requests that the Permit Authority receive similar information
provided to the Planning Commission in order to approve the permit application.
The Planning Commission voted unanimously to recommend approval of the project stating
additional rationale regarding improved fire fighting capabilities, improved water pressure consistency,
increased capacity to improve overall system performance and backup support in the event of system
failure. The Planning Commission also received additional information and testimony from the
applicant's consultants justifying the need for a 10 MGD facility and agreed with their assertion that the
population projections of the Eagle County Master Plan do not mirror actual growth trends or reflect
seasonal demands on the system.
Glenn Porzak described water rights and approved augmentation secured by the Regional Water
Authority and stated that they have the right to divert 20 MGD. Mr. Porzak concluded that the issue
before the Water Courts is to simply move the diversion point downstream and is merely a formality.
In regard to water conservation, the applicant pointed out that the Upper Eagle Regional Water
Authority's conservation efforts are focused on education, metering and rate structures.
Thirty two copies of the application were sent to referral agencies for assistance in making the
specific findings, or approval criteria, in the 1041 regulations. Two referral responses for this
application were received. One response from the Colorado Water Conservation Board came via voice
mail. A summary of this referral response follows below.
The respondent, Baham Hatami of the CWCB, was unable to evaluate the stream depletion for
the project without a court approved augmentation plan that specified the diversion point associated with
this project.
According to the preliminary geotechnical report done by Hepworth-Pawlak Geotechnical ground
water was measured in one boring at a depth of 40 feet. Other borings were relatively shallow and
testing was done before spring runoff. Ground water levels can be expected to rise causing seeps that
could affect the performance of the fill and structures placed on the fill. In addition, it may be necessary
to place drains beneath deep fills. It would be prudent for the County to require that the geotechnical
engineer review the final construction plans for conformance with the recommendations contained in the
April 12, 2000 preliminary geotechnical report. (Comments Attached)
Chairman Stone asked if this is the same file there was a location and extent that was denied.
Mr. Merry stated this is the same property and is not sure of the land use status.
Chairman Stone asked Jim Fritze what connection there is with building this facility and the
Land Use Regulations.
Jim Fritze, County Attorney, stated those are two different actions and here they have satisfied
the location and extent by overruling the Planning Commission. They have an obligation pursuant to the
deed to bring plans and drawings to the County, which approval shall not be unreasonably denied.
Chairman Stone asked iftoday's action is on the 1041 only but there may very well be other
processes they have to go through before building the facility.
Mr. Fritze asked when they might be building the facility. He stated they have some questions
from ECO as well.
Dennis Galvin, General Manger of the Upper Eagle Valley Water Authority, stated they have
work to do with the County pursuant to the contract for purchase. They have obligations they must meet
52
10-02-2000
and will come back to the County for a location and extent permit. He understands they have that
obligation before beginning construction. All this will happen as soon as possible once the 1041 has
been approved.
Mr. Merry stated another thing is to establish a record with the exhibits with A being that
provided by the applicant. AI, Edwards Drinking Water Facility, A2, general site plan, A3, landscape
and site plan, A4, building front, A5 building floor plan, A6 letter written in rebuttal to the Planning
Commission, but since the findings have changed this is no longer relevant, A 7 is the Water Quality
Certification from the Water Quality Control indicating there will be no surface water degradation.
Bob Weaver, Hydrosphere Resource Consultants, introduced himself, Glen Shore, Dennis Gelvin
Gary Fuller, the project manager, Glen Prozak, Water Counsel, and Anna Olivera, from Hydrosphere.
He stated they would like to make a brief presentation that outlines the project, site selection and then
review the staff findings.
Chairman Stone asked them to address why they chose to move the facility to this site. He stated
he would like to make sure they go through the 1041 process completely and don't want to short change
the process.
Mr. Merry suggested the applicant go through the findings for the approval criteria and provide
testimony and evidence to meet that criteria.
Mr. Weaver stated the service area for the Upper Eagle Regional Water Authority encompasses
an area from Eagle Vail down the Eagle River to Edwards and Cordillera. Currently this service area
receives treated water from the plant in Avon. He stated this plant was the subject of the 1041 approved
three to four years ago to expand the plant to 10 million gallons per day.
Mr. Merry stated the 1041 Permit was for the diversion point and not for the expansion as it is
the Town of Avon.
Mr. Weaver stated the facility being proposed is located in Edwards just to the east of the CDOT
rest area. Immediately adjacent to that and downstream from the bike path bridge is where the intake
will be located. The new plant will have the treatment capacity of 5 million gallons per day serving
everything to the east. About 1/3 ofthe area now being treated by Avon will be moved to this plant.
The purpose is to meet growing demands at build out of the previously approved developments. They
believe this plan is needed to increase the overall reliability of the system. He stated the existing system
is totally reliant on the Avon system. This plant could meet the demands of the whole service area if
there is a temporary reduction of Avon's ability to treat the water. This provides some system
redundance and backup capability. It enables the water authority to meet growing demands without
having to make major improvements to the existing distribution system. The three primary purposes of
this plant are to meet growing demands, increase system reliability and make better utilization of the
distribution system.
Gary Fuller stated the authority has conducted a study of the possible locations and narrowed
those to two. One location is this site and the other near the Brett Ranch area. The Edwards site was
preferred for several reasons, the Brett Ranch site would have required 100 feet more pumping energy
which causes unnecessary pressure zones. This is located more in the center of the usage area. This
location has easy access into the distribution system and into storage tanks. It has a number of existing
components making this the better site for this project. Once selected they looked at location of intake
facilities and plant location. He showed the area on a map. He pointed out the bike path and the new
bridge. Along the front side it is heavily covered. They looked at the plant site location and the intake
being near the bridge. They wanted to avoid wet lands and the heavily vegetated area. They also wanted
to avoid a higher intake. The facilities proposed are river bed rock creating the shallow pool that will
meet the need of the intake facility. They coordinated this with the existing users. He explained the
pumping back to the plant which will be buried and the facility itself which will be underground. He
showed the landscaping plan and the wetlands. He showed the area they want to avoid disturbing. Only
the front face of the facility will be exposed. He showed the access road and that being obstructed by the
53
10-02-2000
existing trees. He showed the front elevation of the building and the transition of the grade. He stated
the interior is fairly complex and showed the various intake membranes. He showed the pumping
equipment and the space for future growth. He explained the front side is office area. The facility uses
very efficient water use. He showed the front access corridor, minimizing the visibility.
Mr. Weaver stated there are lots of approval criteria and they can go through each individually.
He stated the water authority concurs with the findings made by staff in their report and concur with the
recommended conditions. They can either go through these individually or discuss them as needed.
Mr. Fritze stated the Board is looking for a record that will show all proof required. He stated
they are looking for the applicant to put on a case that will be sustained by the Court.
Mr. Weaver referred to 6.03.15 for site selection as follows:
a. New domestic water and sewage treatment systems shall be constructed in areas which
will result in the proper utilization of existing treatment plants and the orderly development of
domestic water and sewage treatment systems of communities within this County within the
development area and source development area;
He stated the testimony presented earlier and the description of this facility and how it fits into
this system, provides the evidence needed to make this finding. The treatment plant will provide the
capacity for incremental expansion and meets the needs of the system as they evolve, in a very cost
effective manner. The applicant believes with expected buildout of current platted areas, the entire water
treatment capacity of the Avon facility, will be required to serve the high zone service area. A new
facility is needed for the low zone service area, which is needed to meet the expected demands and
project it to double over the next twenty years, providing more reliability and improvements.
b. The proposed development does not conflict with an approved local master plan or other
applicable regional, state or federal land use or water plan;
Mr. Weaver stated there was some concern originally that growth and demand that were
associated with this plan were inconsistent with the Eagle County Master Plan. Exhibit A6 provides a
detailed discussion of the growth rate figures and growth and demand of the water authority. He stated
the 2% population projections are for resident permanent population. The growth and demand they use
is not only for full time but part time population and non resident population associated with tourism and
second homes. The water demands are far more than the permanent population and growth trends within
the County have been consistently higher than projected. Based on these considerations they feel this
plan is in conformance with the existing local and regional plans.
c. The proposed development does not adversely affect either surface or sub-surface water
rights of upstream or downstream users within the development area and source development
area;
Mr. Prozak spoke to section 6.013.15 and the related finding of 6.04. 15(c) as well. He spoke to
the history of the Upper Eagle Valley Water Authority and explained the contracts for the various
Metropolitan Districts. He stated they all adjudicated their individual plans from the base augmentation
plans to what is existing today. The water authority is the entity that provides the service. The authority
introduced two augmentation plans including the Green Mountain Reservoir and the Eagle River
Augmentation Plan. He spoke to the Metcalf Ditch and the raw water booster station. Under existing
Colorado law, the authority could take the water out and put it back in at the Edwards facility. Rather
than go through that, it has initiated a third diversion point at the Edwards facility. He stated the
alternate point of diversion has a positive effect leaving the water in the river for additional milage.
They have filed that request. They don't believe that should be a basis for denial as they have approved
augmentation plans and have the river to use. They can not measure the depletion resulting from this
plan. The question is where is the point of depletion, which is up stream ofthe facility or further down
river. He suggests that this proposed plan will best demonstrate what the authority has been involved in
with the Eagle Park Reservoir. That did not exist heretofore with the Green Mountain Reservoir. He
54
10-02-2000
explained the in house and irrigation waters. He stated all those depletions are augmented. With the
Eagle Park Reservoir, the depletion is zero. The point of impact would be further down river but it all
gets augmented and the final depletion is zero. They feel the findings submitted by staff are accurate.
Mr. Weaver continued with staff findings:
d. Adequate water supplies, as determined by the Colorado Department of Health, are
available for efficient operational needs;
Mr. Weaver stated they concur with staffs findings and that adequate water supplies are
available. The Colorado Department of Health and Environment inspects the existing water system on a
regular basis and have found the water is adequate in terms of quality and quantity. The proposed
expansion will increase the capacity of the water authority to provide reliable high quality service to its
customers.
e. Existing domestic water treatment systems servicing the area must be at or near
operational capacity;
Mr. Weaver stated they concur with staff that the Avon Drinking Water Facility currently serving
the areas is near 90% of its capacity on a peak day.
f. Existing domestic sewage treatment facilities servicing the area must be at or greater
than eighty percent (80%) of operational capacity;
Mr. Weaver stated they concur with staff this is not applicable.
g. The scope and nature of the proposed development will not compete with existing water
and sewer service or create duplicate services;
Mr. Weaver stated the only water service provider in the service area is the Upper Eagle Water
Authority and they are the authority. There is no competition.
h. Age of existing water and sewage systems, operational efficiency, state of repair, or level
of treatment is such that replacement is warranted;
Mr. Weaver stated they are not replacing an existing facility but expanding the capacity of
existing facilities, making better utilization of existing systems and providing greater reliability to the
current system.
i. Area and community development and population trends demonstrate clearly a need for
such development;
Mr. Weaver stated Mr. Merry distributed a letter form Hydrosphere dated September 20,2000. If
the Board would look on the last page at the graph concerning population growth tends and has
projections for the year 2018. The growth has consistently been well above 5% per year over the last ten
years. The growth has been associated with the build out of previously approved subdivisions. The
projections are at lower growth rates. They feel these projections are pretty conservative. He stated you
can see the growth trends are projected to continue.
Chairman Stone suggested the unprojected growth rates peaked out in 1993.
Mr. Weaver stated it is all over the place. In 1991 they had about an 8% growth, 1993 there was
a 5 lf2 %, 1994 it jumped to 13%, and in 1995 it was down at about 6%. It has to do with development
and when those projects come on line.
Chairman Stone asked why the graph shows it going down and then back up in 2016.
Mr. Weaver stated the projections were developed by Stan Bernstein and what happens is when
you get out beyond a few years it is hard to project the economic and develop trends. The uncertainty
becomes greater the farther out you project. This is one ofthe reasons for designing the plant with 5
million gallons initially and the ability to increase that incrementally. If they have a situation where the
growth is more rapid, the plant can efficiently be expanded. Likewise if the growth does not materialize,
they don't have to plug in the additional modules.
j. Existing facilities cannot be upgraded or expanded to meet waste discharge permit
conditions of the Colorado Water Quality Control Division.
55
10-02-2000
Mr. Weaver stated this criteria is not applicable because they are not doing a wastewater
treatment plant.
k. Appropriate easement can be obtained for any associated collector or distribution system
that will serve existing and proposed needs;
Mr. Weaver stated the authority has received a letter of agreement from CDOT regarding the
existing facility. He believes the only needed easement is on private land on the southwest side of the
river and they are in the process of negotiating that easement. They do have condemnation power but
hope they can successfully obtain that easement.
l. The benefits of the proposed development outweigh the losses of any natural resources or
agricultural lands rendered unavailable as a result of the proposed development;
Mr. Weaver stated there are no agricultural lands that will be rendered unavailable as a result of
this proposal. He spoke to the recreation trail which will be maintain and continue to be available for
public use.
m. The proposed development will not decrease the quality of peripheral or downstream
surface or subsurface water resources below that designated by the Colorado Water Quality
Control Commission as established on May 22,1979, and effective July 10, 1979, or more stringent
standards subsequently adopted;
Mr. Weaver stated the Board has received a letter from the State of Colorado including best
management practices. With that they believe they demonstrate conformance with the approval criteria.
n. The proposed development or its associated collector or distribution system or new
service areas will not violate federal or state air quality standards;
Mr. Weaver stated they will not have any discharges of pollutants to the atmosphere that will
conflict with federal or state laws.
o. The proposed development or its associated collector or distribution system will not
significantly deteriorate aquatic habitats, marshlands and wetlands, groundwater recharge areas,
steeply sloping or unstable terrain, forests and woodlands, critical wildlife habitat, big game
migratory routes, calving grounds, migratory ponds, nesting areas and the habitats of rare and
endangered species, public outdoor recreation areas, and unique areas of geologic, historic, or
archaeological importance;
Mr. Weaver stated the application includes a hydrology report dealing with the operational
impacts on in-stream flows. The conclusion of that report, being Glen Porzaks presentation on water
rights, they find the district being able to sustain stream flows at levels that are at or above the water
rights that have been established by the Colorado Conservation Board for protection of in-stream flows
and aquatic life. They feel the Eagle River is well protected. It has been designed and sited to minimize
impacts to riparian areas and wildlife habitat in this area. The disturbance will be temporary and there
will be no permanent damage. They have included in the application a survey of plants and didn't find
any that will be impacted by this development.
Jim Fritze stated everyone in the room has staffs report, so if they are talking about item q you
do not have to re-read the finding. With regard of items that do not apply they can be skipped.
Chairman Stone suggested if they have already talked about those items just indicate those have
been previously addressed.
Commissioner Phillips stated she appreciates the efforts and usually staff points out those that are
in conformance or not.
p. The proposed development or its associated collector or distribution system will not
significantly degrade existing natural scenic characteristics, create blight, nor cause other
nuisance factors such as excessive noise or obnoxious odors;
Mr . Weaver stated they concur with staff findings that the proposed development will not
significantly degrade existing natural scenic characteristics. They believe this will actually improve the
appearance of this site and be beneficial to aquatic habitat. There will not be any nuisance factors such
56
10-02-2000
as excessive noise or obnoxious odors.
q. The proposed development or its associated collector or distribution system will not
create an undue financial burden on existing or future residents within the development area and
the source development area. The cost of securing an adequate supply of water for existing and
future needs of the residents of the County shall be considered in determining whether an "undue
financial burden" will result;
They have included information in the application and a detailed financial analysis. He stated
they have used the 3% increase in usage and the costs are entirely justified and in capacity with the area.
r. The salinity and advanced wastewater treatment offset plans required by Subsection
6.03.13(7)b)6) and 6.03.13(8)e) have been approved by the Permit Authority and required fees
associated therewith, if any, have been paid.
This finding is not applicable.
s. The construction of structures, buildings and improvements associated with the proposed
development will not significantly impact existing or proposed communities within the
development area and source development area.
The structures associated will not significantly impact existing or proposed communities.
t. The development site of a major new domestic water or sewage treatment system is not
subject to significant risk from earthquakes, floods, fires, snowslides, landslides, avalanches,
rockslides or other disasters which could cause a system operational breakdown.
Mr. Weaver stated wildlife habitat is avoided as are the areas along the river. He reviewed the
findings for section 6.04.15 as follows:
a. Major extensions of domestic water and sewage treatment systems shall be permitted in
those areas in which the anticipated growth and development that may occur as a result of such
extension can be accommodated within the financial and environmental capacity of the
development area and source development area to sustain such growth and development;
Mr. Weaver stated the testimony and documentation submitted address the issues and they
concur with staff findings.
b. The proposed development does not conflict with an approved local master plan or other
applicable regional, state or federal land use or water plan;
Mr. Weaver stated they have submitted testimony they are in conformance and concur with staff
finding.
c. The proposed development does not adversely affect either surface or sub-surface water
rights of upstream or downstream users within the development area and source development
area;
Mr. Weaver stated they have addressed this under section 6.03.15.
d. Adequate water supplies as determined by the Colorado Department of Health are
available for efficient operational needs;
Mr. Weaver stated they concur with staff findings.
e. Existing domestic water treatment systems servicing the area must be at or near
operational capacity;
Mr. Weaver stated again this is redundant and they concur with staff findings.
f. Existing domestic sewage treatment facilities servicing the area must be at or greater
than eighty percent (80%) of operational capacity;
Mr. Weaver stated this finding is not applicable
g. The scope and nature of the proposed development will not compete with existing water
and sewage services or create duplicate services:
Mr. Weaver stated there is no competition with other sewage treatment systems.
h. Age of existing water and sewage systems, operational efficiency, state of repair, or level
of treatment is such that replacement is warranted;
57
10-02-2000
Mr. Weaver stated this is not applicable.
i. Area and community development and population trends demonstrate clearly a need for
such development;
Mr. Weaver stated they have submitted testimony and concur with staff findings.
j. Existing facilities cannot be upgraded or expanded to meet waste discharge permit
conditions of the Colorado Water Quality Control Commission;
Mr. Weaver stated this approval criteria deals with waste water and is not applicable.
k. Appropriate easements can be obtained for any associated collector or distribution
system that will serve existing and proposed needs;
Mr. Weaver stated the issues have been addressed and they concur with staff findings.
I. The benefits of the proposed development outweigh the losses of any natural resources or
agricultural lands rendered unavailable as a result of the proposed development;
Mr. Weaver stated this approval criteria has been addressed.
m. The proposed development will not decrease the quality of peripheral or downstream
surface or subsurface water resources below that designated by the Colorado Water Quality
Control Commission as established on May 22, 1979, and effective July 10, 1979, or more stringent
standards subsequently adopted;
n. The proposed development or its associated collector or distribution system or new
service areas will not violate federal or state air quality standards;
o. The proposed development or its associated collector or distribution system will not
significantly deteriorate aquatic habitats, marshlands and wetlands, groundwater recharge areas,
steeply sloping or unstable terrain, forests and woodlands, critical wildlife habitat, big game
migratory routes, calving grounds, migratory ponds, nesting areas and the habitats of rare and
endangered species, public outdoor recreational areas, and unique areas of geologic, historic or
archaeological importance;
p. The proposed development or its associated collector or distribution system will not
significantly degrade existing natural scenic characteristics, create blight, or cause other nuisance
factors such as excessive noise or obnoxious odors;
q. The proposed development or its associated collection or distribution system will not
create an undue financial burden on existing or future residents within the development area and
source development area. The cost of securing an adequate supply of water for existing and
future needs of the residents of the County shall be considered in determining whether an "undue
financial burden" will result;
r. The development site of a proposed major extension of an existing domestic water or
sewage treatment system is not subject to significant risk from earthquakes, floods, fires,
snowslides, landslides, avalanches, rockslides or other disasters which would cause a system
operational breakdown;
s. Any proposed domestic water treatment and distribution system is capable of providing
water meeting the requirements of the Colorado Department of Health.
t. The construction of structures, buildings, and improvements associated with the
proposed development will not significantly impact existing or proposed communities within the
development area and source development area.
Mr. Weaver stated m through t are all approval criteria they have addressed and they concur with
staff findings.
Mr. Merry asked they review approval criteria r. in 6.03 and 6.04.
Mr. Weaver stated the application contains a report by Geotechnical Engineers, Hepworth
Pawlak, and the condition for review is something they concur with. The site has been deemed
satisfactory. He continued with section 6.05.15.
c. Municipal and industrial water projects shall emphasize the most efficient use of water,
58
10-02-2000
including, to the extent permissible under existing law, the recycling and reuse of water. Urban
development, population densities, and site layout and design of storm water and sanitation
systems shall be accomplished in a manner that will prevent the pollution of aquifer recharge
areas;
Mr. Weaver stated the Water Authority has a Water Conservation Master Plan that provides for
metering within the service area. Efficiency standards for fixtures to be used within the building occur
and they have a leak detection program for monitoring the use or water losses which are prevented
through leaks or unauthorized usage, by being repaired on a regular basis. He spoke to the rate structure
and the incentive to be efficient. He stated all uses will be metered. One ofthe things the Water
Authority focuses on is outdoor water use promoting the more indigenous vegetation. One of the
greatest demands is outdoor water use.
He stated all of the other approval criteria have been addressed in previous testimony for findings
in 6.03 and 6.04. Concluding he would like to incorporate the record ofthe Planning Commission for
these proceedings.
Mr. Fritze stated the application and the documents introduced can be incorporated in the record,
but the minutes of those meetings can not be incorporated as the Board has not read the record or the
transcript. He suggested the Board accept the rest into the record.
Chairman Stone stated the Board will accept everything into the record with the exception of the
meeting minutes of the Planning Commission meeting.
Chairman Stone stated they will take a quick break and reconvene at 4:00.
Chairman Stone asked for public comment.
Bill Williams, representing the Riverwalk Development, apologized for his appearance. He
stated he wasn't notified about this meeting and asked ifthere is a requirement to make notification to
the neighbors.
Mr. Fritze stated it is by public notice in the paper for a 1041.
Mr. Williams stated he was on the Water Authority Board and the Chairman for a number of
years. He has opposed this site since the beginning. There is no question that the need for a new plant is
there and the size proposed is right. The type of plant they are proposing is great. He asked when the
Avon plant came about they were dumping into the sewer system, some of the affluent out of the water
treatment system, which affected the quality of the sewer system. What do they do with the filters and
how are they disposed of. The reasons he opposes this is that he questions the access permit. He stated
the applicant has related they have an access permit but the State Highway Department has stated they
will not be giving an access permit for this location. He has been told that they don't have access from
CDOT or from the Reserve. He stated he has concerns with the easements for the water lines and how
they are going to go out of this site. He stated the design ofthe building is a fine job. He stated he asked
for and has received color pictures of some of the site. He spoke to the point made of there being no
effect on the next door neighbors. He stated there is an effect. He has lost one contract already and may
loose more. He stated once this is built he thinks the devaluation probably won't occur but it is right
now. An industrial site in an area that is not zoned industrial is a conflict. He stated it may be they can
change the zoning but it is not now designated as industrial. Accesses, easement to get the water out,
and the easement is on his property is a big concern. He stated he would consider an easement but wants
more information. He stated there are errors in the hydrology report. He is concerned with minimum
stream flows. He asked how they will turn that on when it is needed. Right now there is not enough
water in the river to take out the amount of water this plant will need. He stated in the hydrology study
he sees no reference to the minimum stream flows. He stated the errors he found were where they
showed increased use of the water into the plant but it also increased the stream flow. He stated he was
unable to contact the author. He has a real problem when they say they will put the flow from the river
into the plant without disturbing the trees. He stated the trees are along the steep bank and below. He
doesn't know how they can to that without tearing up the trees. He stated he is upset because the County
59
10-02-2000
had to sell them the land to begin with as it was the only access to the river that the 5th Filing had. He
does not believe it was a legal subdivision, but sees it as being past history. The minimum stream flows
and how they are going to handle that is his biggest concern. He spoke to the pipeline from Lake Creek
to the plant. He was part of the site selection group. He now understands they are not going to do that.
The site selection is based on economics and they will not have to pump the water up to the Arrowhead
area or new lines into Berry Creek. It is a totally economic thing. None of the special districts are
hurting financially and he believes the selection is based on economics. He stated he understood the site
to be that which would be closer to the major tank which is now at Cordillera Valley Club. He
suggested this would save on the cost of pumping to the upper Arrowhead area. He stated there are large
problems with the pressure in the Edwards area. They now have to put PRV valves on the fire sprinkler
system throughout Riverwalk. He stated he has argued about the pressures and they have water spiked
pressures in excess of 250 pounds. He stated this plant will not help the problem and it is not going to
make it better. He suggested these issues must be addressed more completely.
Chairman Stone asked for additional public comment. There was none.
Glen Porzak spoke regarding the impact on the river. Currently the impact exists because there is
still an amount of diversion from the Avon Treatment Plant further up river.
Chairman Stone suggested they are building this plant for additional capacity.
Mr. Prozak stated some of the demand is currently being served out of the Avon plant.
Chairman Stone suggested they are building this for future capacity.
Mr. Prozak stated one of the advantages of the Edwards facility is that more water will be in the
river for a greater distance. He stated with Eagle Park Reservoir Water and Homestake Reservoir they
are fully augmenting their depletions up river. He stated there are measuring devises on the Eagle River
which are monitored by the Colorado Water Conservation District and the Upper Eagle Valley Water
Authority. He stated that information is on the internet and they are very congnasent of the river flows.
On a daily and sometime hourly basis there is a group of three that watch those numbers. They will
make the determinations as to where the water should be diverted from. He stated the technology is
there so they know what the flows are at any given point in time. Mr. Prozak stated with the water rights
they have at their disposal they can and will maintain the minimum stream flows.
Mr. Williams asked where the measuring devices are.
Mr. Weaver stated the key device is the UDGF gage and it is just below the treatment facility in
Avon.
Mr. Prozak stated they also know what it is at the diversion location.
Mr. Weaver stated the hydrology report contained in the application does have a detailed
description of the water rights and flows. All the graphs and tables in the report use the instream flow as
a reference point for the water impacts. Their conclusion was that with the inbasin augmentation they
can sustain the instream flows. It has been reviewed by the Colorado Division of Wildlife and to move
the point of diversion downstream will be favorable to the stream.
Dennis Galvin spoke to the disposal of the residue and this plant will use very few chemicles and
this plant design will allow them to minimize the residue. He stated they have received a letter from
CDOT indicating they intend to approve an access permit off the Spur Road through the rest area. He
stated they had an agreement with the recreation authority and their's will be as well. He spoke to the
acquisition of easements and the negotiations with the Reserve. He referred to the request for an
easment from Mr. Williams and they are optimistic that will be successful. He stated they can require
them if necessary through condemnation. He spoke to the allegations of impact on property value. He
stated having a high quality water plant will likely enhance property values. He spoke to preserving
access to the river and they have conveyed back to the County enough access. They have an obligation
to convey back any land not used for the plant. He spoke to the site selection and economics being part
of it but more so the functions of the system. He spoke to the pressure spikes and stated they will always
exist.

Chairman Stone asked if there was anything else that had not been addressed.
Gary Fuller stated one of the attractive features of the Edwards site is the close proximity to the
tank at Arrowhead. This site, because it has a tank at Arrowhead is close enough to allow them to
further reduce the footprint. They are able to minimize the construction.
Mr. Williams stated he is glad to hear they have something from CDOT.
George Roussos, Asst. County Administrator, stated the truth of the matter is Eagle County is the
issuing authority. They would look to see that they have the right to cross the Spur Road but the
issuance is not the right of CDOT.
Mr. Williams stated he knows they have the ability to release water into the river and that is a
result of them not bringing it out of Lake Creek. He stated most of his concerns have been addressed
and he thinks they have done a good job of trying to camouflage the plant.
Commissioner Gallagher asked if right now when there are minimum stream flow drops is the
applicant augmenting.
Mr. Fuller stated they are in deed.
Commissioner Gallagher asked about the levels of depletion, one being at the Edwards Water
Treatment Plant and the Edwards Waste Water Treatment Plant. He asked where they replace it. He
asked how much water do they have available for augmentation.
Mr. Fuller stated the only factor is the amount of consumptive use. He stated they have enough
for 20 MGD. Beyond that, they have enough to provide water service to all the member districts at full
build out.
Commissioner Gallagher asked how they get water from Eagle Park at 2:00 a.m.
Mr. Fuller stated they have a contract with Climax Molybdenum Company and they are the ones
that actually turn the value. He stated hopefully it will not be at 2:00 a.m.
Commissioner Gallagher asked about the actual use of the plant. He stated right now Avon gets
up to 900,000 on a good day. At this point they are talking 500,000 at Edwards with moving some from
Avon which is about 1/3 oftheir usage.
Mr. Weaver suggested that will be about 1/3.
Mr. Fuller stated in the event the Avon plant is inoperable, they feel they need to have adequate
size to compensate for the loss of one plant, providing enough to respond to catastrophes. He stated the
plants operate better full time than taking them on or off line.
Commissioner Gallagher asked when they will use up the 500,000.
Denis Galvin stated the expansion will be based on the demand. He stated the other elements are
economic factors and the bonding capability will playa part.
Commissioner Gallagher asked if that is unpredictable.
Mr. Galvin stated the rate structure is also to be taken into consideration.
Commissioner Gallagher asked what is the predictable life of the Avon plant.
Mr. Gelvin stated the life is forever and the utilization will be able to serve at full buildout.
Commissioner Gallagher asked if they have the ability to put pressure reducing valves as needed.
Mr. Gelvin stated they do and they have those valves. Spikes will occur regardless.
Commissioner Gallagher spoke to the diversion ground pump stations.
Mr. Fuller stated those are diversion pumps that are almost like a sewage pump. He stated the
intent is a low maintenance pump. They are fifty horse power units.
Commissioner Gallagher asked where they are located.
Mr. Fuller explained there are two cells which are located underground.
Commissioner Phillips spoke to the minimum stream flows and asked if that flow will be
maintained.
Mr. Weaver stated if you look at the hydrology report one of the things you'll see is there are
occasions where the flow fell below the in-stream water right. There are natural situations where the
flow, without any diversions, is below the CWBC flow right. With those kind of situations, the
61

augmentation from Eagle Park Reservoir is sufficient to maintain a flow level that corrects for the
impacts being caused by the water authorities diversions. There are dry year situations where you could
have flows below the CWBC.
Commissioner Phillips stated the discussion with the Eagle Park Reservoir they believed there
would be enough water to augment. Now they are making room to take out more water.
Mr. Merry stated staff is making a recommendation for approval with conditions. He stated
access to the site is not part of their criteria.
Commissioner Phillips spoke to the requests for referrals and suggested Northwest COG was not
a referral. She questioned not having the input from Robert Ray.
Mr. Merry stated the burden of providing evidence is on the applicant. He stated the 208 plan is
more focused on sewage than on water production.
Chairman Stone stated one ofthe comments was about access to the river. He asked the
applicant to speak to keeping access to the river for fisherman and secondly a question to Mr. Fritze and
the requirement for any property not being used to be deeded back to the County.
Mr. Fritze stated the languge is in the deed that any property not being used after construction,
the grantee must convey to the grantor that portion of the property not used as a water treatment plant.
Mr. Gelvin stated they have an obligation to provide an easement to the river and they foresee
some of the property being deeded back.
Commissioner Gallagher moved to approve file number 1041-0029, Edwards Drinking Water
Facility, incorporating staff findings and with four conditions as follows:
1) All material representation presented by the applicant will become conditions of the
application.
2) the Regional Water Authority shall adhere to all conditions outlined in the letter from the
Water Quality Control Division, dated September 8, 2000, regarding 401 certification BMP's.
3) Final construction plans shall conform to geotechnical recommendations contained in the
April 12, 2000 Hepworth -Pawlak Geotechnical report.
4) Construction activities in the Eagle River shall be coordinated with the Division of Wildlife to
avoid impacts to fish spawning cycles.
Commissioner Phillips seconded the motion. The vote was declared unanimous.
Mr. Merry concluded the last official act of the Board will be the resolution.
1041-0031, Red Sky Ranch
Ray Merry presented file number 1041-0031, Red Sky Ranch. He stated the applicant is

same time. The applicant is requesting a variance which needed to be advertised. The files would all be
heard in conjunction with one another and the date for tabling is October 24,2000.
Commissioner Phillips asked if they are going to be hearing three files
Mr. Merry stated they will hear the 1041, the SSA file is the state site application, and the
variance which will accompany the Preliminary Plan file. The zone change would be heard at the same
time.
Commissioner Phillips moved to table file number 1041-0031, Red Sky Ranch to October 24,
