Sneaky Lane Sub Lower Hunter Creek Acquisition County Re-Zoning Requests Sneaky Lane Subdivision - Bob Starodoj and Bob George were present to question the recommendations made by the Commission at their last meeting. Fred Wooden read the motion made at the meeting of February 15th concerning the Sneaky Lane Subdivision. The Commission told the sub- dividers that they preferred the foot path along the east bank of Castle Creek to the 4% cash fee. The City Manager had told the Planning Office that if the utility easement were available the water would be there in time for hookups and would not be necessary to drill wells. The Commission asked that there be a pedestrian easement on the south side of one of the lots going towards Castle Creek, the easement being 5' wide and that a 6' easement be along the east side of Castle Creek. The City Attorney is to furnish the subdividers with the legal wording that is to go on the final plat which would include the easements, if possible; if not, the 4% eash fee would be required at the time the building permits were issued. Said fee to be used for purchasing easements if feasible. Bob George said he was opposed to the 4% cash fee for only a two lot subdivision. Felt subdividers were penalized just to divide land. Asked if they are the first subdividers to be charged the 4% cash fee. Lower Hunter Creek Acquisition (Area 26) - A map of the area was presented by Herb Bartel showing the 1750 (approximately) acres being offered for sale by the present owners, McCullough Oil to the Forest Service for 3 1/2 million dollars. Money could not be budgeted for purchase until July, 1973. Felt that if the City and County were interested they should make their wishes known to the local Forest Service before their recommendations of priority went to State level. Robin Molny, Chairman, asked that a recommendation from the Commission in the form of a res- olution be sent to City Council and to the County Commiss- ioners with a copy to the Forest Service. Said resolution to show that the concensus of opinion of the Commission was in favor of acquiring this piece of land and placing it within the boundary of the White River National Forest. Motion made by Jim Breasted, seconded by Vic Goodhard to authorize Robin Molny and Herb Bartel to prepare a res- olution to be sent to City Council. All in favor, motion carried.

Continued Meeting, Aspen P & Z, 2/22/72 re-zoned, located on the side of Smuggler Mountain. Present zoning is R-30, R-15. Under existing zoning the land could be divided into 351 lots, with County PUD they would be aliliowed 467 lots. Access would be from existing Smuggler Mountain Road. Tentative plans for a 400 unit apartment, 6,or 7 houses, possible shopping center, tennis club. Plan to use the Salvation Ditch as a pedestrian easement. Jim Adams asked if this could be tabled for 6 months due to so many problems already facing the City as far as circulation and transportation. Michael Gassman said that McCullough was working on transportation possibilities that would be feasible. Robin Molny commented that he felt some of the land to be dedicated as a park was undevelopable land. Jim Adams commented that the taxpayers within the City limits would bear the burden of the cost while the develop- ers were making alot of money. Felt that Main Street was bearing all the traffic it could manage already without any additional burden. Robin Molny questioned what the population increase might be from this subdivision. A conservative estimate was 1600. The general concensus of the Commission on the comments to be sent to the County Planning and Zoning were timing, population increase, transportation, impact on other facilities, inclusion of commercial area in development, Neighborhood shopping requirements. Would recommend to County Planning and Zoaing that the developer be asked to meet with both City and County Planning and Zoning Commiss- ions to iron out the various problems. Jim Breasted stated he had a conflict of interest due to the fact that he does work for the firm involved. Chairman Molny stated that since they were under the Charter it would be permissable for Breasted to discuss the subject, of which he has a conflict, but would have to abstain from any voting on the subject. The two subdivision by the hospital (Mocklin-Williams) would have the same concerns as the Tri-Co Management subdivision. Discussed the Zoline subdivision. Felt that if Zoline had not gone R-30 PUD the Commission would not have favored the previous plan. Asked that the entrance to the highway be limited to existing County road.
