Weld County, CO Location: North of and adjacent to State Highway 52; Approximately 0.5 Miles East of County Road 87 Size of Parcel: 2.5 Acres Net Parcel Number: 1307-36-0-00-018 THE 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: Section 23-2-220.A.1 --The proposed use is consistent with Chapter 22 and any other applicable code provisions or ordinance in effect. The National Grange was started in 1867 and is is the nation's oldest national agricultural organization. It was formed in the years following the American Civil War to unite private citizens in improving the economic and social position of the nation's farm population. Homestead Grange No. 215 was founded in 1913. The hall was built by its members and has been the meeting place for many dances, showers, meetings, weddings and community events. A. Section 22-2-20.B. A.Goal 2. Continue the commitment to viable agriculture in Weld County through mitigated protection of established (and potentially expanding) agricultural uses from other proposed new uses that would hinder the operations of the agricultural enterprises. Section 22-2-20.6 2. A.Policy 2.2. Allow commercial and industrial uses, which are directly related to or dependent upon agriculture, to locate within agricultural areas when the impact to surrounding properties is minimal or HOMESTEAD GRANGE NO.215 HOMESTEAD GRANGE INC. PAGE 2 mitigated and where adequate services and infrastructure are currently available or reasonably obtainable. These commercial and industrial uses should be encouraged to locate in areas that minimize the removal of agricultural land from production. Section 22-2-20.G. A.Goal 7. County land use regulations should protect the individual property owner's right to request a land use change. Section 22-2-20.G.1. A.Policy 7.1. County land use regulations should support commercial and industrial uses that are directly related to, or dependent upon, agriculture, to locate within the agricultural areas, when the impact to surrounding properties is minimal, or can be mitigated, and where adequate services are currently available or reasonably obtainable. B. Section 23-2-220.A.2 -- The proposed use is consistent with the intent of the A (Agricultural) Zone District. Section 23-3-40.E Public and quasi-Public buildings including: Administrative offices or meeting halls for agricultural organizations as a Use by Special Review in the A(Agricultural)Zone District. C. Section 23-2-220.A.3 --The uses which will be permitted will be compatible with the existing surrounding land uses. The surrounding land uses include a variety of agricultural activities, including irrigated and dryland farming operations. There are limited farmsteads with associated housing stock in the general area. The proposed Grange Hall site is approximately five (5) miles East to Morgan County and nine (9) miles west to Prospect Valley. The Town of Keenesburg is approximately sixteen (16) miles to the Northwest. 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 facility is not within the three mile referral areas for a municipality E. Section 23-2-220.A.5 -- The site does not lie within any Overlay Districts. The site is not within the Airport, Flood Hazard or Geologic Hazard Overlay Districts, however the site is within the County-wide Road Impact Fee and the County Facility Fee and Drainage Impact Fee area. Effective April 25, 2011, Building Permits issued on the proposed lots will be required to adhere to the fee structure of the Weld County Road Impact Program. (Ordinance 2011- 2) 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 for the proposed use. The U.S.D.A. Soils Maps of Prime Farmlands of Weld County dated 1979 indicate that the soils on this property as "Prime" however, there is no irrigation water associated with the parcel as it is a "dry corner." Given that the 2.5 acre net parcel is a non-farmed piece of land, the applicant is utilizing the property for the highest and best use. G. Section 23-2-220.A.7 -- The Design Standards (Section 23-2-240, Weld County Code), Operation Standards (Section 23-2-250, Weld County Code), Conditions of Approval and HOMESTEAD GRANGE NO.215 HOMESTEAD GRANGE INC.

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. HOMESTEAD GRANGE NO.215 HOMESTEAD GRANGE INC. PAGE 9 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 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. HOMESTEAD GRANGE NO.215 HOMESTEAD GRANGE INC.

Find WQCV from above highlighted#2 equation using a=1.0 and your i from step 1 3. Find required storage from highlighted #3 equation on page SQ-24 using your WQCV from step 2 and the Total Site Area 4. Show the area for the water quality depression on your site plan downstream of any parking, building or operations areas and label it as"Water Quality Feature, No Build Area". The depression should be 1-2' deep and have enough volume for the required storage amount you calculated above. An exiting sump or depress on can also be used if it meets the volume. 10-2005 SQ-25 Urban Drainage and Flood Control District DRAINAGE CRITERIA MANUAL(V. 3) STORMWATER QUALITY MANAGEMENT basins can provide less holding time for the predominant number of smaller storms. Larger basins can result in less net reduction of pollutants than is obtained when using the recommended 80'" percentile capture volume that can be obtained from Figure SQ-2. Storms larger than the 80th percentile events still receive some treatment when their capacity is exceeded by larger storms, but at a somewhat lower efficiency. Thus,the law of diminishing returns for cost-effective pollutant removal takes effect, not only because of the large number of small storms found in the total population of storms, but because the first flush of runoff for larger storm is also captured and that pollutant removal continues to occur for in-line capture basins when the runoff exceeds their design capacity. 4.4 Determining the Water Quality Capture Volume 4.4.1 Use of Directly Connected Impervious Area The procedures described in the RAINFALL and in the RUNOFF chapters of Volume 1 of the Manual are intended for the design of drainages and flood facilities that prevent damage to property and help protect human life. These procedures show that the depth of rainfall produced from a design storm varies somewhat throughout the Denver region and that runoff is a function of total imperviousness. Water quality enhancement focuses more on the smaller events that deliver frequent flow pulses and pollutant loads to the receiving waters. The runoff volume for smaller events is especially sensitive to the impervious area that is hydraulically connected to the stormwater runoff system. The impervious portion of a watershed determines the runoff volume that needs to be used for the design of water quality facilities, and the percentage of impervious surface therefore becomes important in the design of structural BMPs. The RUNOFF chapter of the Manual, Volume 1, includes the methodology for calculating basin imperviousness. This procedure needs to be modified, however,when using the practice of minimizing directly connected impervious areas in combination with extended detention basins, retention ponds, wetlands, and other practices depended on a design water quality capture volume. Whenever applicable, the needed modifications are described in the appropriate chapters of this volume of the Manual. 4.4.2 Water Quality Capture Volume (WQCV) All structural BMPs recommended in this volume of Manual are based on the 80th percentile event. Specific guidance for finding the needed WQCV is provided in each BMP types' design section. This WQCV varies with the type of BMP used and is based on the time it takes to fully drain the brim-full WQCV. Figure SQ-2 summarizes the WQCV requirements as a function of the tributary catchments total imperviousness as a ratio of the total area of the catchment for 6-, 12-, 24-, and 40-hour drain times of the WQCV. 10-2005 SQ-23 Urban Drainage and Flood Control District t STORMWATER QUALITY MANAGEMENT DRAINAGE CRITERIA MANUAL(V. 3) Figure SQ-2 is appropriate for use in Colorado's high plains near the foothills. For other portions of Colorado or of United States, the WQCV obtained from this figure can be adjusted using the following relationships: WQCV WQCV0 =d6 0.43 in which, WQCV = Water quality capture volume taken from Figure SQ-2 WQCV0 = Water quality capture volume outside the Denver region d6 = Depth of average runoff producing storm from Figure SQ-3 (watershed inches) Once the WQCV in watershed inches is found from Figure SQ-2, then determine the required storage volume in acre-feet as follows: 3. r Required storage =LWQZ V](Area) in which, Required storage = Required storage volume in acre-feet Area = The tributary catchment's area upstream in acres The independent variable in Figure SQ-2 is the total imperviousness ratio(i.e., i=l,/100) of the tributary watershed (catchment). The chapter on RUNOFF in Volume 1 of the Manual contains guidance for how to find the total imperviousness of a watershed and its use is recommended. Figures SQ-4,SQ-5 and SQ-6 are duplicated in this chapter to help the reader estimate the imperviousness of single family residential areas. Note that these figures require the knowledge of the average housing densities, types of housing, and average human occupied total square footage of the houses in the area to find the imperviousness of these areas.

(The legal description is Lot C RE-2563; Part SW4 Section 5, T1 N, R61W of the 61h P.M.) Background Information: The applicants are proposing to construct a Grange Hall for Homestead Grange. Since 1913, the Homestead Grange has provided a gathering place for Halloween parties, 4-H activities, dances, etc. Due to the termination of an existing lease, the applicants are proposing to construct the new Hall on the subject site. Building Department The applicants are proposing to construct a Morton Building. The building will be required to adhere to the 2006 IBC codes. Handicap accessible restrooms and parking will be required as well. A hard surface will be required for handicapped parking. The approximate size of the building is 50 feet by 100 feet. Staff encouraged the applicants to hire an architect to determine occupancy load and perform a code analysis. This information will determine the threshold requirement for sprinkler systems. Health Department The applicant will need to install an engineered designed septic system. The septic permit fee is $850. The setback distance between the well and septic system is 100 feet. Staff encouraged the applicants to visit with Joanna Williams, Division of Water Resources, regarding a commercial well permit. The minimum lot size allowed is 2.5 acres to accommodate for water and septic setbacks. When the applicants inquired about providing a small kitchen for buffets, staff stated that since it is a non-profit business the kitchen would fall under other rules. Staff will follow-up with the Food Inspection Department. Public Works Staff recommended that the applicants visit with Gloria Hice-Idler, CDOT, on acquiring an Access Permit. The applicants indicated that it would be a shared access. Traffic study will be determined by CDOT. A Site Plan identifying the access, building location, and parking area will be required. The site is not located in a designated FEMA floodplain. The applicants indicated that the parking area will most likely be recycled road base. If the applicants proposed recycled road base, no Drainage Report is required; however the applicant shall provide a short description of the historic stormwater flows across the property and how their application will affect those flows. The description shall include but not be limited to: 1) where the water originates if it flows onto the property from an offsite source, 2) where it flows to as it leaves the property, 3)the direction of flow across the property, and 4)if there have been previous drainage problems with the property. The application shall also provide flow arrows on the map showing where the stormwater starts, how it goes across the property, and where it leaves the property. The applicant will still be responsible for providing a water quality feature that conforms to the methodology outlined in Volume 3, Section 4.4.2 of the Urban Storm Drainage Criteria manual. Planning Department The applicants will need to submit a Recorded Exemption (RE)application to create a minimum 2.5 acre parcel. This will establish a legal description for the property. The application fee is$1000. In addition, a survey of the property will be required. The applicants will also need to submit a Use by Special Review(USR) application for the Grange Hall. The application fee is $2500. Staff urged the applicant to contact staff for any questions: Planner On Call available Monday through Friday 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Staff explained the USR process. The applicant shall submit 4 packets for a 7 day completeness review. After the 7 day completeness review the applicant will be informed of what items are still required to make the application complete. Staff requested that the applicant submit the remaining material in electronic form. Upon submittal of a completed application it will be sent out for referral for 28 days. The applicant will then meet with their Planner to discuss the referrals and address as many of the referrals as possible. At that meeting the Planning Commission hearing will be scheduled. The Board of County Commissioners hearing typically follows approximately 3 weeks after the Planning Commission hearing. The above notes are provided as a courtesy to the applicant. While we strive to identify significant issues, the above notes may not identify all issues, even major ones that may be raised during the formal review of your application. The information contained herein has been placed on file with the Department of Planning Services. End memorandum.

We feel that our community would benefit from another building for many purposes. We held many 4-H activities, Halloween parties, showers, dances, etc. in the old building, and feel there is still a need for those purposes as well as our grange meetings. Since its establishment in 1913, Homestead Grange has always been a place for our community to gather, and we really feel that we still need a building to supply a gathering place.
