Item 5 was pulled by staff and placed on the discussion agenda.
Chairman Klataske asked for questions on Consent Items.
Member Strom asked that Item 1, the October 22 minutes, reflect a minor correction of the
Isdeletion of a "not" to make statement a positive.
Albert Barnes, 2637 W. County Road 40, asked that Overland Hills Subdivision be pulled for
further discussion.
Member Carroll moied to approve Items 1, 3, 4, Member O'Dell seconded the motion. The motion
carried 6-0.
Chairman Klataske requested Mr. Barnes' comments. Mr. Barnes stated he lived in an area
immediately to the south and, while not complaining about the subdivision, was concerned that
the lots and houses to be built would have septic systems. He felt septic systems should not be
permitted within the City, but should be served by the City's modern sewage system. His
second concern regarded the right-of-way requirement for Overland Trail at this location.
Since this road had not been designated as a major arterial and, since he felt Overland would
not sufficiently develop to require a multiple lane divided highway in this location, this
requirement should be dropped.
Mr. Eckman stated that the code required that, if the structure was within 400 feet of the
public sewer system, it must be connected; further than that, it may be served by septic if it
meets Larimer County health requirements. He believed the nearest sewer line was
approximately 3/4 mile away.
Mike Herzig, Development Coordinator, stated the sewer line which would serve this area was
approximately 1 /2 mile to the north, requiring the Spring Creek alignment to be extended. The
County would allow for the septic tanks in the interim and, when the extension was there, the

subdivision would be required to hook in if the septic system doesn't meet the County's needs.
In regards to the Overland Trail concern, the alignment was not actually official in
conformance with the Master Street Plan since the alignment followed a section line. A couple
years ago a study determined the alignment should follow the slope of the Foothills. If the
alignment should change at final adoption of the street plan, this right-of-way, if not needed,
would be vacated. We feel this requirement is based on our best study of where the road should
occur.
Chairman Klataske asked the width required.
Mr. Herzig stated it was 120 feet of right-of-way width, allowing for a six -lane arterial street
in conformance with the current Master Street Plan. He stated that this may be revised when
a new street plan is adopted as current traffic projections are coming in less than previously
determined.
Member O'Dell asked what happened to land designated as right-of-way
Mr. Herzig indicated it would be vacated and then go back to the property owners who had
dedicated the right-of-way.
Chairman Klataske asked for other input. With no other input, he asked for Board comments
or a motion.
Member Strom moved to approve Overland Hills 2nd Filing, Final Subdivision. He indicated
that he expected a new transportation plan would take care of Overland Trail alignment and
width concerns. Member Walker seconded the motion.
Chairman Klataske stated the requirement
for the future. Member Carroll concurred

EAGLE LAKE SUBDIVISION COUNTY REFERRAL -Case #3-91
Sherry Albertson -Clark gave a description stating the 16 single family subdivision was
consistent with the Larimer County Land Use Plan. She stated the City recommended approval
with the following revised condition: "That the applicant provide access to the Lake for the use
of residents in the development in an area that does not impact wild life habitat and/or
wetlands." This was a change allowing for one access point rather than specifying the access
come from the eight waterfront lots. The applicant proposed an area in the southwest corner
of the site.
Chairman Klataske asked for clarification of location of the proposed area.
Ms. Albertson -Clark pointed out two possible areas.
