A site development plan for a new library in Penrose and a permit application for an ATV jamboree in the Penrose area in June highlight a busy agenda for the Fremont County Planning Commission May 6th.
The Planning Commission will review details of the Penrose Community Library District's site development plan to build a new library on the northwest corner of Dawson Street and 7th Avenue in the downtown Penrose area. The district is proposing a library building of nearly 6,950 square feet with allowances to build a 2,000 square foot addition in the future. The building site covers a little less than one acre.
The Penrose ATV Club is seeking a temporary use permit from the county to allow the first Royal Gorge ATV Jamboree at 0012 3rd Street (County Road #123) on Saturday, June 7th. The site is located on 80 acres of private property 1 3/4 miles west of Highway 115 in the Beaver Park area. The permit application seeks permission to stage an ATV Rodeo, limited camping, and an outdoor concert that evening.
The county commissioners requested that the jamboree permit application be reviewed by the Planning Commission because as a first time event in that area it has the potential of drawing a crowd of between 200 and 1,000 people which could pose some impacts on the neighborhood.
The Planning Commission will consider a zone change request from Tony Wish for a piece of property along the north side of Highway 50 in the Coaldale area. The parcel is bordered by residential property on both sides. Wish is seeking a change from Business Zone to Ag Estates Zoning so he can build a new residence on the property.
The Commission also considers a special review use permit application from Alltel Communications which wants to install a new 100 foot monopole wireless communications tower in the Four Mile area. The proposed tower site is on land owned by the Jean Colon-Ann Emerson trust and is on the hill just southeast of Highway 50 and MacKenzie Avenue east of Canon City.
The Fremont County Planning Commission meets at 7:00 p.m., Tuesday, May 6th in Room LL-3 of the Fremont County Administration Building at 6th and Macon in Canon City.
