The Rohn Ridge Planned Unit Development (PUD) aligns with Meeker’s long-term vision for growth, aesthetics, housing, and infrastructure, ensuring a well-integrated and sustainable expansion of the town.

Community Aesthetics Designed to promote walkable neighborhoods with trails and soft-surface pathways, enhancing Meeker’s unique charm.

Growth and Design Supports slow, intentional growth with diverse housing options to cater the housing market.

Housing Variety Offers three housing types: small lots, traditional family homes, and estate lots (2.59-3.63 acres) to provide accessible options for different demographics.

Infrastructure Ready Utilities are readily available, minimizing development costs. Future phases include mixed-use commercial and light industrial opportunities to support local employment and economic growth.

Floodplain Analysis: Safety at the Forefront

Curtis Creek runs adjacent to Rohn Ridge, with some areas falling within a FEMA-designated 100-year floodplain. However, a comprehensive Floodplain Analysis ensures that development remains secure and well-planned:

Accurate Delineation Hydraulic modeling confirms that most of the site is outside the floodplain, ensuring minimal risk to future development.

Mitigation Measures Proposed improvements to Curtis Creek will further reduce potential flood risks, safeguarding both new and existing infrastructure.

Soil and Environmental Considerations

The detailed NRCS Soil Resource Report ensures that all aspects of the development will be built on stable and sustainable grounds:

Soil Stability Identified soil types include Forelle loam and Kobase silty clay loam, with slopes ranging from 3% to 15%.

Land Suitability Loam soils are optimal for construction, allowing for efficient land use while addressing erosion risks in sloped areas.

Conservation Practices Emphasis on xeriscaping and water conservation aligns with regional climate considerations, promoting sustainable landscaping solutions.

Geologic Hazards Study

Conducted by Kumar & Associates, the Geologic Hazards Study identifies potential risks and outlines mitigation strategies to ensure safe and stable development:

Steep Slopes The terrain is stable with no signs of movement; however, slopes between benches will require proper grading (2:1 horizontal-to-vertical ratio).

Expansive Soils Portions of the site overlay Mancos Shale, which will require further evaluation to ensure foundation stability.

Seismic Safety The region falls within UBC Zone 2, indicating minimal risk of significant earthquakes.

A Solution to a Critical Housing Need

Rohn Ridge is the only active housing development in the area and has been designated as a key growth location in Meeker’s 2021 Comprehensive Plan.

Its prime location near Pioneer Medical Center, the region’s only hospital within a 40-mile radius, makes it an ideal development for medical professionals, young families, and local workforce housing.

Development-Ready with Key Approvals in Place

With all engineering plans, surveys, and permits ready to transfer, Rohn Ridge offers an incredible opportunity for developers to bring Meeker’s vision of sustainable growth to life.
