Applicant: Lawrence &Therese Scott
Site Address: 11434 State Highway 52, Fort Lupton CO. 80621
Request: Amended Site Specific Development Plan and Use by Special Review Permit for
an Amendment to Use by Special Review 671 (farm equipment repair shop) for
expansion of outdoor storage of vehicles, materials and parts associated with the
farm equipment repair shop, along with a Towing service, and an impound lot in
the A(Agricultural)Zone District.
Legal Description: Lot A of AMRE-1379; located in Part of the SW4 of Section 1, Township 1 North,
Range 67 West, Weld County, Colorado
• Location: South of and adjacent to State Highway 52 and approximately 1/2 mile east of
County Road 23
Size of Parcel: +/- 5.2 Acres
Parcel Number: 146901000089
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:
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 B.2. A.Policy 2.2. states: "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 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 A. A.Goal 1. states: "Respect and encourage the continuation of
• agricultural land uses and agricultural operations for purposes which enhance the
economic health and sustainability of agriculture."
USR11-0017, Scott, Page 3
Section 22-2-20 I. A.Policy 9.3. states: "Consider mitigation techniques to address
• incompatibility issues. Encourage techniques and incentives, such as but not limited to
clustered development and building envelopes, to minimize impacts on surrounding
agricultural land."
This proposed Amended Use by Special Review Permit is to expand an existing farm
equipment repair shop originally approved under USR-671. USR-671 was approved by
the Board of County Commissioners on May 15, 1985. This use consists of mostly indoor
repair of vehicles with some outdoor repair of larger vehicles and some outdoor storage
of vehicles and equipment awaiting repair, or repaired vehicles awaiting payment of
repairs. In addition to this use, the applicant intends to operate a vehicle towing business
(estimated at approximately one tow per week) and a screened impound lot for storage of
wrecked, derelict or abandoned vehicles for the Colorado Highway Patrol (estimated at
approximately two times per month).
Development standards and conditions of approval (such as screening of outdoor
vehicles and equipment storage associated with the business) will ensure compatibility
with the surrounding area.
B. Section 23-2-220.A.2 -- The proposed use is consistent with the intent of the (A)
Agricultural Zone District. Per Sections 23-3-40.6.4 and 23-3-40.S of the Weld County
Code: Farm equipment sales, repair and installation facilities and Any use permitted as a
Use by Right, an accessory use, or a Use by Special Review in the commercial or
industrial zone districts, 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 are listed as Uses 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. This violation was initiated due to the expansion of a Use
by Special Review (USR-671) permitted area without the necessary Weld County Zoning
Permits and the presence of non-permitted mobile homes and Noncommercial Junkyard.
This case was presented to the Board of County Commissioners through the Violation
Hearing process on February 8, 2011. At that hearing, the Board referred this case to the
County Attorney's office, but delayed legal action for 30 days. The applicant submitted
this USR application to address the expansion of the boundaries of USR-671. This
complaint was from a private citizen.
This application if approved by the Board of County Commissioners and once a plat is
recorded will correct a portion of the violation. If this application is denied, the
commercial use shall be reduced to fall back within the guidelines as established through
USR-671. Additionally, if denied by the Board of County Commissioners this case will
proceed with legal action accordingly.
There is an existing single family residence and outbuildings located on the parcel
immediately to the west of the USR site and two other single-family residences located
approximately 150-300 feet to the northwest of the site. Farmland is located to the south
and vacant land and an old gravel mining site are located to the north and east of the
USR property.
No letters, e-mails nor phone calls from surrounding property owners have been received
in response to this land use request.
Staff is requiring screening of outdoor vehicle and equipment storage from adjacent
residences and rights-of-way to ensure compatibility with existing surrounding properties.
•
USR11-0017, Scott, Page 4
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 proposed USR site is located within the three-mile referral
areas of the City of Fort Lupton and Town of Frederick. No referral response has been
received from either 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 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 in the locational decision for the proposed use. This special use
permit application is to address expansion an existing commercial business that has
occurred since the original USR was approved. No additional agricultural land is being
taken out of production.
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. Conditions of approval
• and development standards will ensure adequate provisions to the protection of health,
safety and welfare of the inhabitants of the neighborhood and County.
This recommendation is based, in part, upon a review of the application materials submitted by the
applicant, other relevant information regarding the request, and responses from referral entities.

USR11-0017, Scott, Page 9
30. 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,
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.

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
