The applicant is Grand Valley Flooring (GVF), Ted Carney. Currently, GVF is located in
the Safeway shopping center. Ted Carney has just purchased this 1.5 acre property and
is proposing to build a 5,000 SF pre -manufactured, metal, commercial building that will
house the GVF retail space and adjacent warehouse, along with two separate office
spaces (other businesses yet to be determined). The southern half of the lot is available
for future development.
GVF will utilize 3,000 SF of space, including 2,150 SF of retail space and 850 SF of
warehouse and storage. The rest of the building will be divided into two separate 1,000
SF spaces. The applicant is proposing to begin construction next spring/summer.
Because this property has direct access onto US Highway 40, a Colorado Department of
Transportation (CDOT) Access Permit is required.
Staff has reviewed the development proposal. Included in the packet are the following
review comments:
• JRS Engineering Consultant memo (Jim Swanson, Town Engineer) dated
10/4/14
• Planner memo dated 10/13/14
• Town Gardener memo, dated 10/9/14
John Zander and Ted Carney, representing GVF, outlined the building specifications for
the Commissioners. Tim Gagnon addressed the drainage for the site and snow storage
easements.

5. Discussion and Possible Action:
a. Approval of the Three Mile Plan
According to Colorado State Statutes, the Town of Fraser needs to update the Three
Mile Plan annually. The three mile plan is a long-range plan that outlines where
municipalities intend to annex property and describes how they will ensure adequate
provisions of services within newly annexed territory and the remainder of the existing
municipality.
The Three Mile Plan is a component of the 2010 Town of Fraser Comprehensive Plan.
Included in the packet are pages 56-58 of the 2010 Comprehensive Plan (Three Mile
Plan).
Staff is recommending that the PC approve the Three Mile Plan as detailed in the
Comprehensive Plan with no changes at this time. A resolution is included in the packet.
