PETITION
We,the undersigned owners of the land to be known as “Rock Ridge Estates,”
hereby petition the Town of Estes Park and the Estes Park Planning Commission
as required by Section 21.8 of the Municipal Code of the Town of Estes Park for
the following exceptions:
1.21.7—/Cd)—A variance is requested to waive the requirement regarding
the minimum length requirements of deadend streets.
21.7—1(f)—A variance is requested to waive the requirement regarding
street grades.
3.21.7—1(g)—A variance is requested to waive the requirement regarding
intersecting streets with more than four (4)percent grade,a distance
of one hundred (100)feet.
4.21.7—1(i)—A variance is requested to waive the requirement regarding
minimum center line curvature of street.
5.21.7—1(j)—A variance is requested to waive the requirement regarding
minimum tangent lengths between reverse curves.
6.21.7—2 —A variance is requested to waive the requirement regarding
average lot widths of one hundred (100)feet as it applies to Lots 6
and 12.
The above requests are being made due to the steepness of the terrain of our
property and the excessive cuts which would be required in order to comply with
these sections of the subdivision ordinance.We feel that these requests,if
granted,will not be detrimental to the public good or welfare and that we will
still be able to develop this property in a fashion which will be in keeping
with the surrounding properties and be an asset to the community.As has been
previously stated we will endeavor in any way possible to cooperate with the
Town of Estes Park and the Town of Estes Park personnel in order to insure that
the roads are constructed properly with proper drainage.Your favorable con
sideration will be appreciated.
