also located approximately IA mile from the municipal boundaries of the City of Greeley
and is approximately 'A mile to the east of (and directly accesses via O Street) State
Highway 85. O Street is classified as an arterial road and there are existing industrial
uses that access onto to O Street to the west of this property. This site is also located
within the Urban Growth Boundary for the City of Greeley. Single family residences are
located to the north and east of the property. Any proposed use on the property will
require a Site Plan Review application that will be administratively reviewed by the
County as well as outside referral agencies. The Department of Planning Services is
requiring a note on the Change of Zone plat stating that screening and buffering from
adjacent uses may be required at the time a Site Plan Review application is submitted.
B. Section 23-2-3O.A.2. - The uses which would be allowed on the subject property by

and prevent property damage of the type generally attributed to run-off rate and
WakeLLLP-COZ13-0001 Page7
velocity increases, diversions, concentration and/or unplanned ponding of storm
run-off. (Department of Public Works)
27. 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,
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
WakeLLLP-COZ13-0001 Page8
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.
G. The applicant shall submit three (3) paper copies or one (1) electronic copy of the plat for
preliminary approval to the Weld County Department of Planning Services. (Department
of Planning Services)
3. Upon completion of 1. and 2. above the applicant shall submit a Mylar plat along with all other
documentation required as Conditions of Approval. The Mylar plat shall be recorded in the office
of the Weld County Clerk and Recorder by Department of Planning Services' Staff. The plat shall
be prepared in accordance with the requirements of Section 23-2-260.D of the Weld County
Code. The Mylar plat and additional requirements shall be submitted within thirty (30) days from
the date of the Board of County Commissioners resolution. The applicant shall be responsible for
paying the recording fee. (Department of Planning Services)
4. The Change of Zone plat map shall be submitted to the Department of Planning Services' for
recording within one -hundred twenty (120) days of approval by the Board of County
Commissioners. With the Change of Zone plat map, the applicant shall submit a digital file of all
drawings associated with the Change of Zone application. Acceptable CAD formats are .dwg,
.dxf, and .dgn (Microstation); acceptable GIS formats are .shp (Shape Files), Arclnfo Coverages
and Arclnfo Export files format type is .e00. The preferred format for Images is .tif (Group 4) ...
(Group 6 is not acceptable). (Department of Planning Services)
5. In accordance with Weld County Code Ordinance 2005-7 approved June 1, 2005, should the plat
not be recorded within the required one -hundred -twenty (120) days from the date the Board of
County Commissioners resolution a $50.00 recording continuance charge shall added for each
additional 3 month period.

Dear Applicant:
I have scheduled a meeting with the Weld County Planning Commission on June 18, 2013, at 1:30 p.m.
A subsequent hearing with the Board of County Commissioners will be held on July 3, 2013 at 10:00
a.m. Both hearings will be held in the Hearing Room, Weld County Administration Building, 1150 O
Street, Greeley, Colorado. It is recommended that you and/or a representative be in attendance to
answer any questions the Planning Commission members or Board of County Commissioners may
have.
Colorado Revised Statute, C.R.S.24-65.5-103 (adopted as part of H.B.01-1088) requires notification of
all mineral estate owners 30 days prior to any public hearing. The applicant needs to provide the Weld
County Planning Department with written certification indicating the above requirement has been met.
A representative from the Department of Planning Services will be out to the property a minimum of ten
days prior to the hearing to post a sign adjacent to and visible from a publicly maintained road
right-of-way which identifies the hearing time, date, and location. In the event the property is not
adjacent to a publicly maintained road right-of-way, one sign will be posted in the most prominent place
on the property and a second sign posted at the point at which the driveway (access drive) intersects a
publicly maintained road right-of-way.
The Department of Planning Services' staff will make a recommendation concerning this application to
the Weld County Planning Commission and will be included in the staff report one week prior to the
scheduled Planning Commission hearing. You may view the staff report at
