Let it be known that the undersigned oppose the development of
the Twisted Pine Campground proposed for County Road 59, Guffey Colorado.
The proposed campground is in violation of Park County zoning. The Conditional Use Permit is an attempt to circumvent the zoning regulations and bypass the rezoning process.
The proposed campground will directly and negatively impact the surrounding areas and neighbors by increasing traffic, road damage, noise, and environmental pollution.
The proposed campground will destroy an undisturbed natural vista.
The proposed campground will not have a permanent and guaranteed source of water
(well) and will instead rely on trucked in water deliveries of a minimum of 1200 gallons per day.
The proposed campground will disrupt the elk herd in the area as well as encroach on an identified bear territory.

Environmental Board Findings
The plan is unrealistic. It proposes a septic tank suitable for a one family home. The site plan shows 21 camper slots/cabins. If only two people per camp site that's the waste of 42 people going into a system suitable for a average to large family.
