Irealize we are just past July 4th traffic, but as you likely know, the dust on CR2 has been terrible. Between the increased traffic and recent dry spell, dusti is having a significant impact for everyone traveling or living near CR2. I'd be happy to provide additional information or photos if helpful, butl I am certain everyone is aware of the issue without taking up more Ihope that the county will not only resume the use of mag chloride soon but also consider this as a standing annual budget expense.

We understand Ibelieve Bevan has been keeping you up updated on our emails about signs, speed and the associated dust generated. We would also request some speed enforcement on County Road 2 as a deterrent. The mag chloride may control the dust but may pick upt the speed of vehicles as they travel. It would be highly unfortunate for anyone (dog walkers, joggers, bike riders, moose, other wildlife, etc.) to be harmed or killed by these speeding vehicles. People should drive reasonable Lastly, would there be any option top post the speeds at the residential areas at 10MPH. We see that has occurred by the Rock Pirate concession and was wondering what it would require to have the same courtesy around the housing areas. It itis on the meeting agenda tomorrow for discussion and hopefully also as an action item. and enjoy the sights, thati is what most of them should be here for. we post 10 mph we might get them down to 20!

Thel Lodge will consist of an approximately 7000 sq. ft. two-story timber framed structure designed similarly to the historic structures that were previously located on the site.

Buildings can be engineered and designed to withstand an avalanche's direct and indirect impact. Avalanche diversions can be constructed to reduce the impact on the structures. However, there is still the safety issue ofcrossing avalanche terrain to access the buildings. The applicant has provided that winter guests would only be allowed access with a guide knowledgeable in avalanche hazards. That may not be enough and active avalanche mitigation may be required. In addition to thel hazards on site there are the avalanche hazards of US 550. Avalanches, avalanche control and road closures could all have an adverse impact on the operation of the lodge during winter months. Ifthe project is ultimately approved the applicant will need to strictly adhere to the Avalanche Safety Plan as prepared by Dynamic Avalanche Consulting Ltd. They Avalanche Safety Plan also list a disclaimer on page 1 that states: Avalanches are complex natural phenomena and there is considerable uncertainty ini the estimates of magnitude, frequency, runout, and potential snow avalanche effects described in the ASP. Under extremely unstable snow conditions, avalanches may be observed in terrain where they would not otherwise occur, such as forestedareas or low-angle slopes. New avalanche paths may also be formed byj forest harvesting, wildfire, or slope mass Section 2 - 104.1 oft the Zoning and Land Use Regulations allows for the county to contract for technical expertise at the expense of the applicant. The Commissioners may want to consider hiring an independent avalanche consultant to review the Avalanche The applicant has also provided an Emergency Response Plan to address numerous The preservation of wetlands is also a vital concern.

Iwould like to comment on this permit application. Although not an immediate neighbor to these properties we do have a cabin about 2miles from this area. As well we are presently the managers of the Artist Vacation rental mentioned in the permit application. To be clear, as a property owner in the area for 30 years, Ihave NO objection to someone developing their personal, private, property. Idol however have some concerns over this application. My concerns primarily have to do with the development of the Bonanza Boy The. Actual Silver Cloud lodge development probably has several concerns that Ithink will be addressed sufficiently by the county in the process. It seems al little crazy tol be approving al Lodge where a 24/7 avalanche forecaster is needed to be ons site, and that sometimes guests would need to wear PPEavalanche gear because oft thei inherent danger of the property. Around the world andi in this country many structures have been destroyed, people have died, by mother nature and avalanches despite some thinking they are Ihave some questions as to the "zoning" or "county planning" in this area. Itseems to me there was some plan by the county to not allow commercial development this far north on US HWY 550?1 Ift this is approved Iwould think that the owners of the "Artist Cabin", or others would someday want to turn their property into a commercial venture of some sort? ApartmemtGargehtower house/parking lots. safe, and engineered, because ofs some on paper "action" plan". About" Thel Bonanza Boy: The largest concerns Ib have are; Environmental Impact, and Scenic corridor impacts. Ithink a single family residence perhaps even vacation rental at this location would be reasonable assuming all impacts were But Idoi think that a commercial development of this size, and scope is completely INAPPROPRIATE for this location. From what mitigated. Ican tell from this lengthy application the Bonanza Boy development would be a: Welcome center Gift shop Communal showers Maintenance garage Vehicle garage 3apartments 21 large parking lots extensive driveway system where there ist now a meadow. Sewage treatment area ESTIMATED: 24 guest vehicles, 8 campground vehicles, 3 dispersed campground vehicles ?employee vehicles all parked 52 vehicles a day turning in, 52 vehicles turning out, from parking areas When this property went up for sale Iwould not even consider buying it because: htps.maligpogle.com'avorA-h5asau2sezmsverplsardraalspemina-rmemott180167158380921asmol-mspiieol. 1/3 7/9/24, 1:51F PM San. Juan County Mail Comments ont the Bonanza Boy Preliminary Plan/ Application- Silver Cloud Lodge PUD. 1)Access was very questionable. 2) The extensive wetlands on the property. Access: Although a CDOT permit was applied for, was access granted? Ifso, does the CDOT easement get yout to this property or does other private property, ie "the Artist cabin" have to be crossed to access? This two track, that is referred to ini the application, isit acounty recognized road? Does this property actually have clear legal access toi it, where he says it does? Wetlands and Environment: There are wetlands maps with the permit. Icould not find where the amount of wetlands that will be impacted was actually Quantified in acres? What percent of the property is wetlands and how many acres are being destroyed? Althoughlunderstand' that other areas in the country do "trade" destroying wetlands in exchange for making new wetlands. Is this really something that should be, OR needs to be done here? Iwould sayi it shouldn'tandi ifiti is, only at the absolute minimum amount needed to make a private residence with perhaps 2-3 vehicles. Where are the actual plans to create more wetlands, when, by whom, ist there or would there bea labsolutely object to the size of the parking lots, driveways, building footprints, and planned daily usage by sucha al large number of people, in this scenic HWY 550 corridor, all completely visible on such as small property, basically on top ofa meadow. As many of you know this area is heavily used by wildlife. Last week there were literally two moose, elk herd and deer all grazing on this property early int the morning 3 mornings in a row.. Although wildlife adapt and will move elsewhere, is this what the county Although several agencies were involved ini this permit Icould not find an actual environmental impact ASSESSMENT? What will thei impact be? It will be changed forever. Ifthei impact is acceptable it willl be up to the commissioners to decide. Iwould What will the Scenic impact be? There are pictures of buildings but no pictures of the area with parking lots and 30 vehicles parked there. The pictures included in the permit makei ita almost impossible to see the hundreds of wetland flags there right now. An engineer designed a very larges septic system to go into a meadow. What will the IMPACT be? Compared to a single family Idol NOT think NOISE (during construction and after) is addressed at all. Already renters staying at the. Artist have complained about the camper parked there last summer fors several weeks running a generator every morning and evening. What will the noise What impact will this development have on nearby property values, particularly the Sterns property value, after having owned this property for about 40 years, iti is already impacting the vacation rental occupancy this summer and aj permit has not even been PLEASEI Iwould encourage the county commissioners to do as site visit soon while the Wetlands Delineation flags are: still there to make ap personal assessment as to whether this development is appropriate, OR more: importantly NEEDED, ini this area. bond toi insure this is done? wants? A smaller development would have far less impact and be much more: appropriate. sayt that iti is NOT acceptable. What will the impact of 4 wood stoves on this property, and neighboring property be? residence what is the impact? impact of 50 vehicles pulling in out and out of this area be? approved.

I am not sure iflwill be able to make it up to this meeting on not, but We have been working with Colby on a reciprocal easement for the road, to allow him access through USFS and the public beyond his property (as well as a turn around and drainage solutions). This is pretty standard for isolated private land. Our road easement is to secure not only the land owners access, but the publics access into the future. The easement should not have an baring on the projection oft this property, but do know the easement is in the works. We have defaulted to the county on the season of use for the We have also discussed with Colby our concerns for social trails or "new" use in the tundra. We asked Colby to design his facilities to keep guests on his property. He agreed and noted that his guest would be guided by already permitted guides. The proximity to high profile high elevation alpine lakes is concerning. The potential for this business to impact relatively unimpacted tundra through unmanaged recreation is We have also discussed a join restoration project of the stream below his property. Our hydrologist and fisheries biologist have looked at his proposal and feel it may! help the fishing in the stream (especially on his property), and we appreciate his efforts to reclaim the mining impacts, but is not a top priority for the district given the relatively short and intact but influenced (highway) system that leads into beaver ponds. thought tlwould drop you a line in case not. road, noting the high avalanche danger and potentially limited operating season. real, but Colby seems aware and willing to manage it.
