Location: Approximately .25 miles west of County Road 55 and approximately .25 miles north of
County Road 66
Size of Parcel: +/- 10.34 acres Parcel No. 0801-21-4-00-056
Description of Use:
The applicant is requesting an approval of a Special Use Permit to allow parking and maintenance of
commercial vehicles specifically three semi -tractor trailers. According to the application materials there
are currently 3 employees with a possibility of 5 in the future. The owner and his family will reside at the
dwelling unit on the site. Tires and other small parts for the trucks will be stored in the garage on site.
DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING SERVICES' STAFF RECOMMENDS THAT THIS REQUEST BE
APPROVED FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS:
1. The submitted materials are in compliance with the application requirements of Section 23-2-260
of the Weld County Code.
2. It is the opinion of the Department of Planning Services' staff that the applicant has shown
compliance with Section 23-2-220 of the Weld County Code as follows:
A. Section 23-2-220.A.1 - The proposed use is consistent with Chapter 22 and any other
applicable code provisions or ordinance in effect.
Section 22-2-20.G - A.Goal 7 states, "County land use regulations should protect the
individual property owner's right to request a land use change."
Section 22-2-80.D - I. Goal 4 states, "All new industrial development should pay its own
way."
The applicant will be responsible for covering all costs for all on -site and any applicable off -
site improvements associated with this use, as required through the Improvements
Agreement and Conditions of Approval.
USR12-0067, Page 2 of 9
Section 22-2-100.E. - C.Goal 5. states "Minimize the incompatibilities that occur between
commercial uses and surrounding properties."
Section 22-2-20.G.2 - A.Policy 7.2 states, "Conversion of agricultural land to nonurban
residential, commercial, and industrial uses should be accommodated when the subject site
is in an area that can support such development, and should attempt to be compatible with
the region."
The applicant parks 3 commercial vehicles on the site and is allowed by code to only have
one commercial vehicle. The attached Development Standards and Conditions of Approval,
including a required Screening Plan and a road improvements and maintenance plan, will
address the impacts and attempt to ensure compatibility with the surrounding area.
B. Section 23-2-220.A.2 — The proposed use is consistent with the intent of the Agricultural (A)
Zone District. Section 23-3-40.S. of the Weld County Code allows for, A Site Specific
Development Plan and Use by Special Review Permit for a use permitted as a Use by Right,
an Accessory Use or a Use by Special Review in the Commercial or Industrial Zone Districts
(Parking and Maintenance of Tractor Trailers) provided that the property is not a Lot in an
approved or recorded subdivision plat or lots parts of a map or plan filed prior to adoption of
any regulations controlling subdivisions in the A (Agricultural) Zone District.
Currently the property is in violation (ZCV12-00161). This violation was initiated due to the
operation of a commercial trucking business without an approved and recorded Use by
Special Review permit (USR). If the USR is approved, the violation will be closed. If denied,
the applicant will be allowed to keep one (1) commercial vehicle on the property and the
others shall be removed. Additionally the case shall be referred to the County Attorney's
office with a delay of legal action for 30 days in order to give the applicant time to ensure
that the other commercial vehicles are removed from the property.
Furthermore, a visible Noncommercial Junkyard consisting of Derelict Vehicles and
miscellaneous debris was also noted. The Noncommercial Junkyard shall be removed,
restored or completely screened from all adjacent properties and public rights -of -way.
C. Section 23-2-220.A.3 -- The uses which will be permitted will be compatible with the existing
surrounding land uses.
The site is located approximately four miles east of the City of Greeley. Adjacent properties
are mainly utilized for pastures, crops, and rural residences. The nearest residence is
located approximately 45 feet from the east property line. The Weld County Department of
Planning Services has received 3 letters from the surrounding property owners. All three
letters indicated that they support the applicant's proposed use. The attached Development
Standards and Conditions of Approval, including a required Screening Plan and a road
improvements and maintenance plan, will address the impacts and attempt to ensure
compatibility with the surrounding area.
D. Section 23-2-220.A.4 -- The uses which will be permitted will be compatible with future
development of the surrounding area as permitted by the existing zoning and with the future
development as projected by Chapter 22 of the Weld County Code and any other applicable
code provisions or ordinances in effect, or the adopted Master Plans of affected
municipalities.
The site is not located within three miles of a municipality.
E. Section 23-2-220.A.5 -- The application complies with Article V of the Weld County Code.
The existing site is within the County Road Impact Fee Area and the Capital Expansion
Impact Fee and Drainage Impact Fee areas.
USR12-0067, Page 3 of 9
Effective April 25, 2011, Building Permits issued on the proposed lots will be required to

Effective April 25, 2011, Building Permits issued on the proposed lots, will be required to
adhere to the fee structure of the County Facility Fee and Drainage Impact Fee. (Ordinance
2011-2)
F. Section 23-2-220.A.6 -- The applicant has demonstrated a diligent effort to conserve prime
agricultural land in the locational decision for the proposed use.
The proposed facility is primarily located on soils designated as "Irrigated Land, Not Prime"
per the 1979 Soil Conservation Service Important Farmlands of Weld County Map. There is
a small section that is designated as "Prime (Irrigated)" per the 1979 Soil Conservation
Service Important Farmlands of Weld County Map. The proposed USR will not take any
Prime (Irrigated) Farmland out of production as the land is already being used for rural
residential.
G. Section 23-2-220.A.7 -- There is adequate provisions for the protection of health, safety, and
welfare of the inhabitants of the neighborhood and County.
The Design Standards (Section 23-2-240, Weld County Code), Operation Standards
(Section 23-2-250, Weld County Code), Conditions of Approval and Development Standards
can ensure that there are adequate provisions for the protection of health, safety, and
welfare of the inhabitants of the neighborhood and County.

29. WELD COUNTY'S RIGHT TO FARM: Weld County is one of the most productive agricultural
counties in the United States, typically ranking in the top ten counties in the country in total
market value of agricultural products sold. The rural areas of Weld County may be open and
spacious, but they are intensively used for agriculture. Persons moving into a rural area must
recognize and accept there are drawbacks, including conflicts with long-standing agricultural
practices and a lower level of services than in town. Along with the drawbacks come the
incentives which attract urban dwellers to relocate to rural areas: open views, spaciousness,
wildlife, lack of city noise and congestion, and the rural atmosphere and way of life. Without
neighboring farms, those features which attract urban dwellers to rural Weld County would quickly
be gone forever.
Agricultural users of the land should not be expected to change their long-established agricultural
practices to accommodate the intrusions of urban users into a rural area. Well -run agricultural
activities will generate off -site impacts, including noise from tractors and equipment; slow -moving
farm vehicles on rural roads; dust from animal pens, field work, harvest and gravel roads; odor
from animal confinement, silage and manure; smoke from ditch burning; flies and mosquitoes;
hunting and trapping activities; shooting sports, legal hazing of nuisance wildlife; and the use of
pesticides and fertilizers in the fields, including the use of aerial spraying. It is common practice
for agricultural producers to utilize an accumulation of agricultural machinery and supplies to
assist in their agricultural operations. A concentration of miscellaneous agricultural materials
often produces a visual disparity between rural and urban areas of the County. Section 35-3.5-
102, C.R.S., provides that an agricultural operation shall not be found to be a public or private
nuisance if the agricultural operation alleged to be a nuisance employs methods or practices that
are commonly or reasonably associated with agricultural production.
Water has been, and continues to be, the lifeline for the agricultural community. It is unrealistic to
assume that ditches and reservoirs may simply be moved "out of the way" of residential
development. When moving to the County, property owners and residents must realize they
cannot take water from irrigation ditches, lakes, or other structures, unless they have an
adjudicated right to the water.
Weld County covers a land area of approximately four thousand (4,000) square miles in size
(twice the size of the State of Delaware) with more than three thousand seven hundred (3,700)
miles of state and County roads outside of municipalities. The sheer magnitude of the area to be
served stretches available resources. Law enforcement is based on responses to complaints
more than on patrols of the County, and the distances which must be traveled may delay all
emergency responses, including law enforcement, ambulance, and fire. Fire protection is usually
provided by volunteers who must leave their jobs and families to respond to emergencies.
County gravel roads, no matter how often they are bladed, will not provide the same kind of
surface expected from a paved road. Snow removal priorities mean that roads from subdivisions
to arterials may not be cleared for several days after a major snowstorm. Services in rural areas,
USR12-0067, Page 8 of 9
in many cases, will not be equivalent to municipal services. Rural dwellers must, by necessity, be
more self-sufficient than urban dwellers.
People are exposed to different hazards in the County than in an urban or suburban setting.
Farm equipment and oil field equipment, ponds and irrigation ditches, electrical power for pumps
and center pivot operations, high speed traffic, sand burs, puncture vines, territorial farm dogs
and livestock, and open burning present real threats. Controlling children's activities is important,
not only for their safety, but also for the protection of the farmer's livelihood. (Department of
Planning Services)
