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 22-2-150D.A Goal 4 states: "Conversion of agricultural land to nonurban residential, commercial and industrial uses will be accommodated when the subject site is in an area that can support such development. Such development shall attempt to be compatible with the region." Development Standards and Conditions of Approval will ensure that the proposed use will be compatible with the area. The surrounding property is primarily agricultural in nature with residential development to the South, and West, in Boulder County. Section 23-2-240.A.10 of the Weld County Codes states "...that buffering or screening of the proposed use from adjacent properties may be required in order to make the determination that the proposed use is compatible with the surrounding uses." The applicant indicates that all components of the flooring business are located Ken Wolf Flooring, USR-1773 Page 2 within a building, including warehousing and office space. As a condition of approval the applicant will be required to screen the outdoor storage and parking areas associated with the business from the surrounding property owners and public rights of way. 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.R of the Weld County Code allows for A Site Specific Development Plan and 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, (Wolf Flooring) 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 property to the south and west are in single family residential with Summit Peak Estates located 600 feet more or less south of the subject property. Single family residential development is immediately south of the site. Boulder County is to the west and has single family residential development. Property to the north and east are in Agricultural production One letter with comments has been received from a surrounding property owner to the north and west of the property in question with concerns of a commercial strip development and a decrease in property value. Given the minimal impact of the proposed business, it is the opinion of this office that the use will be compatible with the surrounding land uses. 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 property is not located within an Intergovernmental Agreement Area but does lies within the three mile referral area for the Town of Mead and Boulder County. The City of Longmont, Town of Mead and Boulder County did not respond to the referral request. The surrounding area is Agricultural in nature with single family residences in the area. Staff believes that the Conditions of Approval and Development Standards will ensure that the use will be compatible with existing surrounding land uses. 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 January 1, 2003, Building Permits issued on the proposed lots will be required to adhere to the fee structure of the County Road Impact Program. (Ordinance 2002-11) Effective August 1, 2005, Building permits issued on the subject site will be required to adhere to the fee structure of the Capital Expansion Impact Fee. (Ordinance 2005-8, Section 5-8-40) 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 subject site is classified as "Irrigated Land Not Prime" on the Farmlands of National Importance" as delineated on the Important Farmlands of Weld County map, dated 1979. This size of the parcel (3.0 acres) and the property is currently developed therefore the proposed USR is not taking any additional Irrigated Land Not Prime Farmland 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. Ken Wolf Flooring, USR-1773 Page 3 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.

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 Ken Wolf Flooring, USR-1773 Page 8 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.

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.

(The legal description is Lot A RE-4953; Part SW4 of Section 7, T3N, R68W of the 6th P.M.; Situs Address is 16882 CR 1) Background Information: The applicant has just purchased the subject property and is a flooring installation subcontractor for Lowe's. There will be approximately 6 to 7 deliveries of material per week. The applicant indicated that there will be about 5 crews who will show up to pick up the material and then go to the job site in their own vehicles. No customers will come to the site. Three employees doing administrative and inventory of materials, supplies and assistance with off-loading of product are expected to work in the walk-out basement associated with the Wolfe residence. The applicant is proposing to add a 12 foot wide by unknown length addition to the existing shop for storage of the carpet, materials and the refuse box. Building Department Given the proposed change in use, a foundation inspection and structural inspection will be required for the existing shop. The applicant inquired if he would be allowed to pour a concrete slab in the existing shop. Staff stated that a permit is not needed for a concrete slab; however it was recommended to talk to an engineer prior to pouring concrete if digging is required for inspection of the foundation. A building permit will be required for the proposed addition. The applicant stated that the job requirement for this business is that the employees assist in deliveries;therefore they must be non-ambulatory. Staff requested that the applicant submit a letter outlining his job requirements and that he would be willing to make reasonable accommodations, if necessary, for his employees. Health Department The applicant indicated that there will be no maintenance of the vehicles on site. Staff stated that the carpet glue would need to be stored according to manufacturer's requirements. Dust Abatement and Waste Handling Plans are required. A copy was forwarded to the applicant for reference. Staff recommended rock or recycled asphalt for the parking area. Upon review of electronic files, there is a Septic Permit (SP99-00101) which is sized for six (6) people. Staff stated that an engineer may need to evaluate the system for adequacy. The applicant stated that Longs Peak Water supplies water to the site. A "Will Serve" letter from Longs Peak Water will be required as part of the application. Public Works No traffic study is required; however the applicant must submit an estimated number of trips per day. 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 applicant indicated that he is not proposing any signage located on site. Staff urged the applicant to contact staff for any questions: Planner On Call available Monday through Thursday 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.
