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.

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.

I am strongly opposed to a commercial campground in this residential area. CR 59 is a largely unmaintained dirt road and can't handle the extra traffic. Noise and disruption to wildlife will negatively affect our quiet rural community. Please don't approve this permit.

The peace and tranquility of the surrounding area will be a total loss. This will have major effect on the local wildlife as well. Bears, elk, deer, pronghorn, and much more are prevalent in this area. This could also affect the local streams and ponds.

I don’t see how this would protect the rural and alpine landscape, viability of agricultural operations or minimize the impacts on the scenic quality of the rural, agricultural and mountain landscape which are all objectives of the Park County Strategic Master Plan.

I oppose this campground based on the fact that it violates existing zoning, will negatively impact neighbors, and the requisite water trucking will be a nuisance.

My address 2981 Park County Rd. #59 is directly across the road from the proposed trailer park. It is my sincere hope that the county listens to its long time constituent in the neighborhood and does not approve the CUP. This is a circumvention of the county zoning regulations and would be a bad precedent for ALL Park County land owners.

Not only do I oppose this camp ground,but I oppose the solar panel farm that is trying to be put in Park County near Hartsel, which is not provide power for Park County. The solar panel farm is going to provide power for Counties East of Park County to include Aurora.
