Posey, PhD, Geologist State of Colorado -Division of Minerals & Geology 1313 Sherman Street, Room 215 Denver, CO 80203 Dear Mr. Posey: 20 December 2005 Re: Application of the City of Cripple Creek to Convert Existing Limited Impact Permit (M-1993-03~ Attached is a copy of a letter dated 19 December 2005 addressed to the Director of Public Works of the City of Cripple Creek, which is apparently seeking to convert its existing 110 Limited Impact Permit to eit er a 111 Special Operations Permit or a 112 Regular Operation Permit. The intent of the City is not clear from the materials we received. In any case, it is the County's position that prior to issuance of any new or converted Division of Minerals and Geology Mined Land Reclamation Permit, and in compliance with the Teller County Land Use Regulations, an amendment of the City's existing Teller County Conditional Use Permit -Mining, is required. Securing the appropriate DMG permit will, of course, be a condition of any approval of the modification of Teller County's Permit, and we will provide you promptly with notice of County approval and a copy of the Conditional Use Permit when it is issued. We appreciate your cooperation in this matter, and ask that the State withhold its approval of rovhatever City application is finally submitted until such time as the County process is complete. [n general, once we receive a complete Conditional Use Permit application we anticipate it takes approximately 90 to 120 days before the Board of County Commissioners gives final approval. Please feel free to call me directly at 719-686-5407 if you would like to discuss this matter. Sincerely yours, ~~ ~~, Paul Clarkson, Director Att: Letter dated 19 December 2005 to Chip Huffman, Director of Public Works, City of Cripple Creek cc: Chip Huffman, Director of Public Works, City of Cripple Creek (without attachment) Greg Winkler, County Administrator (by e-mail) Jean Garren, Senior Planner (by e-mail) Chris Brandt, County Attorney (by e-mail) File
