ACCESS
Development Review has reviewed the application materials related to access.

Dear Chris Gathman:
We have received the February 18, 2022 proposal for a site specific development plan and use by special
review permit for buildings exceeding the maximum building coverage in the A (Agricultural) Zone
District.
This referral does not appear to qualify as a "subdivision" as defined in section 30-28-101(10)(a), C.R.S.
Therefore, pursuant to the State Engineer's March 4, 2005 and March 11, 2011 memorandums to county
planning directors, this office will only perform a cursory review of the referral information and provide
informal comments. The comments do not address the adequacy of the water supply plan for this project
or the ability of the water supply plan to satisfy any County regulations or requirements. In addition, the
comments provided herein cannot be used to guarantee a viable water supply plan or infrastructure, the
issuance of a well permit, or physical availability of water.
The proposed water uses and estimated demand were not provided. It is unclear if the proposed
additional building will have a water demand. The proposed water supply source is well permit no.
310037. Permit no. 310037 was issued July 10, 2018 pursuant to section 37-92-602(3)(b)(II)(A), C.R.S. as
the only well on 1 acre described as lot 3, block 77, filing 3, Aristocrat Ranchettes Subdivision. The well
is permitted to withdraw groundwater from the not-nontributary Lower Arapahoe aquifer to be used for
ordinary household purposes inside one single-family dwelling. This office has no comments to the
proposal so long as the terms and conditions of permit no. 310037 are complied with. Should the applicant
wish to use the well for uses beyond those permitted, the applicant would need to first obtain a well
permit that allows for such uses.
If you or the applicant have any questions, please contact Allis Thyne of this office at 303-866-3581 x8216
or at ailis.thyne@state.co.us.
Sincerely,
1
