Summit County Government ("County's and the Town of Breckenridge ("Town") aze purchasing approximately 1,840 acres of land for open space protection purposes in June 2004, including properties adjacent to the Mascot Placer. The County and Town aze acquiring these lands from B&B Mines, Inc., the same entity that Rock Island Land Company LLC purchased the Mascot Placer from in 1998. As part of the due diligence for this purchase, the County and Town ]rave reviewed the active 112 permit held by Alpine Rack Company (Permit #M-93-035). This active pemlit covers approximately 352 acres, including both a portion of the lands the County and Town are purchasing and the Mascot Places. My department is concerned that the reclamation proposed in the current application does not meet the requirements set forth in Permit #M-93-035, aad that the intent of these site-specitic stipulations will be lost if the current proposal is approved as submitted. Permit #M-93-035 provided a reclamation plan with final grades and revegetaticn cross-sections. A stipulation regarding soil amendments was also included in this permit. The current process of breaking this permit into smaller parcels should not negate these requirements. As a pending landowaer of property under Permit #M-93-035, it is the County's and Town's intent to abide by these requirements at a minimum. County and Town staff have had discussions with Alpine Rock to insure that this occurs as specified in the permit. Please insure that requirements approved as a part of the current submittal remain consistent with all stipulations imposed under Permit # M-93-035. Please contact me at (970) 668-4061 if you have any questions regarding this matter. Sincerely, ~~ ~~~~ Todd Robertson Open Space and Trails Director cc: Ron Holliday, County Manager Sue Boyd, Assistant County Manaa'er Tim Gagen, Breckenridge Town Manager
