What is Kanemoto Estates Ag Conservation Easement Termination Request 20230201?
The Kanemoto Estates Ag Conservation Easement Termination Request 20230201 is a letter, dated February 1, 2023, in which the owners of Kanemoto Estates, Lefthand Ranch LLC, ask Boulder County to terminate the agricultural conservation easement on the Kanemoto Estates Subdivision NUPUD, Outlot A.
The letter is addressed to the Planning Division Manager of the Long Range Planning & Policy Team, Boulder County Land Use Department, and is signed by Jack Bestall as Owner's Representative for Lefthand Ranch LLC and Principal of Bestall Collaborative Limited. It argues the request under three headings: TDR IGA Policy Conformance, Annexation Regulatory Conformance and City of Longmont Comprehensive Plan Conformance. It then lists the Envision Longmont goals and policies that it says support the request.
The letter states that Boulder County Parks & Open Space and Lefthand Ranch LLC have reached an agreement to terminate the easement. Outlot A is 28.8 acres of the subdivision and is covered by the easement held by Boulder County Parks & Open Space. The Boulder County page for Kanemoto Estates says termination is required to allow annexation of the property into the City of Longmont for a mixed housing development at 8702 N 87th Street.
The same PDF also contains the February 10, 2023 Kanemoto Estates Annexation narrative and the Somerset Village planning and vision workbook. These describe the development concept and are not part of the termination request itself.
Who needs to file Kanemoto Estates Ag Conservation Easement Termination Request 20230201?
This document is specific to one property. It is written for the owners of Kanemoto Estates, Lefthand Ranch LLC, and their representative, who ask the county to terminate the agricultural conservation easement on Outlot A. In this case the request is signed by Jack Bestall, Owner's Representative for Lefthand Ranch LLC.
Boulder County staff in the Land Use Department, specifically the Planning Division Manager to whom it is addressed, are the audience that reads and acts on it. Boulder County Parks & Open Space holds the easement and is named as a party to the agreement to terminate it.
The letter is not a standard application and sets no eligibility test of its own. Owners of other properties should not treat it as a county form to copy line for line. They can use it only as an example of how this owner presented a request. The agency page says the termination is requested under the terms of the easement itself.
When to file Kanemoto Estates Ag Conservation Easement Termination Request 20230201
The triggering event is the annexation of Kanemoto Estates into the City of Longmont. The Boulder County page says termination of the easement is required to allow that annexation. The letter is dated February 1, 2023. It says Lefthand Ranch LLC has already made formal application to the City for annexation and was preparing Submittal 3 in response to the City's comments. The letter prints no deadline and no renewal or validity period, so the request travels with the annexation process it supports.

Common mistakes to avoid
- Addressing the request to someone other than the Planning Division Manager, Long Range Planning & Policy Team, Boulder County Land Use Department, 2045 13th Street, Boulder, CO 80302.
- Leaving out the property: the request must identify the Kanemoto Estates Subdivision NUPUD, Outlot A, and the agricultural conservation easement that encumbers it.
- Omitting the statement that an agreement has been reached with Boulder County Parks & Open Space, the holder of the easement, to terminate it.
- Sending the letter unsigned or without the owner's representative's name and role, which the original shows under the closing.
- Skipping one of the three conformance sections: TDR IGA Policy Conformance, Annexation Regulatory Conformance or City of Longmont Comprehensive Plan Conformance.
- Treating the Somerset Village concept pages that follow the letter as part of the request. They are the separate annexation narrative and vision book.
