SUBJECT: USR12-0041, Larry D Johnson Living Trust
A Use by Special Review permit for a veterinary office.
The Weld County Public Works Department has reviewed this proposal. This project falls under the Use
by Special Review Standard, Weld County Code, Chapter 23, Article II, Division 4, Section 23. Staff
comments made during this phase of the Use by Special Review process may not be all-inclusive, as
other issues may arise during the remaining application process.
COMMENTS:
CR 3 is a local gravel road and requires a 60-foot right-of-way at full build out. There is presently a 60-foot
right-of-way. This road is maintained by Weld County. Pursuant to the definition of SETBACK in the Weld
County Zoning (23-1-90), the required setback is measured from the future right-of-way line.
Traffic proposed is very minor (10-15 clients per day). The existing access is via a 30' access easement
on the property to the north which is also owned by the applicant. Please show and label the access on
the Plat with the approved access permit number(will be provided).
The gate must be set far enough back from the CR 3 right-of-way to allow a truck and trailer to completely
pull off the roadway to open the gate(minimum 75 feet).
There is no outdoor storage of materials proposed therefore; a water quality area is not required.
This area IS NOT in a Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) as determined by the Federal Emergency
Management Agency(FEMA).
REQUIREMENTS:
1. Add the following notes to the plat:
a. Pursuant to Chapter 15, Articles I and II of the Weld County Code, if noxious weeds exist
on the property or become established as a result of the proposed development, the
applicant/landowner shall be responsible for controlling the noxious weeds. All
vegetation, other than grasses, needs to be maintained at a maximum height of 12
inches until the area is completely developed.
b. The historical flow patterns and run-off amounts will be maintained on site in such a
manner that it will reasonably preserve the natural character of the area and prevent
property damage of the type generally attributed to run-off rate and velocity increases,
diversions, concentration and/or unplanned ponding of storm run-off.
