Re: V°LRB File N81-362 , Flatiron Deepe F6rnf, Pit' ('ooufder County' Docket ks
SU-81-10, Z-82-4)
Dear Mr. James:
Attached is a copy of a letter from the Boulder County Planning Division
staff to Flatiron Companies indicating that the Board of County Commissioners
CONDITIONALLY APPROVED the Deepe Farm Pit as a Mineral Extraction Overlay
rezoning at a public hearing held on Monday, April 9, 1982 at 10:00 a.m.
As of this date and subject to the conditions listed, the Deepe Farm Pit
proposal is in compliance with the current Boulder County Zoning Resolution.
In addition, I received a copy of a letter from Mrs. Margaret Winter to
you dated April 9, 1982 and would like to comment on some of the items in
that letter:
1. Minin Procedure - Boulder County's local zoning approval pre-
c udes fol owing the five stages of mining proposed by Flatiron
only to the extent that the current approval is limited to the
first two stages. Flatiron has the ability to apply for local
zoning approval of the remaining stages prior to completion of
mining of the 1st two stages and thus has the opportunity to
continue mining of the entire property without interruption.
If the quality of Flatiron's mining of stages 1 and 2 lives
up to their representations and the conditions of local zoning
approval , they should not have any unreasonable difficulties
in receiving approval to mine the remaining stages. It should
be noted, however, that Boulder County's action does not pre-
clude denial of the remainder of the operation.
2. Stockpile Location and Treatment - Any "authority assumed" or
specifications for location and planting of stockpiles contained
in Boulder County's approval conditions are strictly related to
local zoning police powers for the health, safety and welfare
of the general public, more specifically to visual aesthetics ,
noise, traffic and dust concerns. Deposit stockpiles should
be located in the stage 1 operations area.
