and Zoning Commission has used the following guidelines to
evaluate previous requests for similar use approvals:
1. Existing or proposed access to site from
existing streets;
2. Number of parking spaces proposed and impact
upon traffic flow;
3. Drainage from the site and possible impact on
potable water supply;
4. Site surfacing and possibility of excess debris
and mud being tracked onto streets and highways;
5. Compatibility of use and visual impact on
adjacent propertieu;
6. Length of time for proposed use and restoration
of site at end of use period; and
7. Written approval from landowners allowing the
proposed use.

RE: Benchmark to Vail 115 KV Transmission Line
Dear Norm:

AREA CODE

945-5491
Holy Cross Electric has received a Special Use Permit (Resolution
No. 87-4) to construct the above mentioned transmission line
within the Town of Avon.
Following discussions with the U.S. Forest Service and Town of
Avon officials, it appears that relocating about three-quarters
of a mile of the proposed transmission line would benefit all
parties. Please amend the route of the Special Use Permit at the
westerly end to reflect the attached legal description.
Sincerely,
HOLY CROSS ELECTRIC ASSOCIATION, INC.
