II Zoning provides the same type of common sense divisions of
business , residential , and industrial areas that we create in our
own homes by the use of walls to separate living , sleeping , working ,
I and storage areas . By the use of well established legal principles ,
zoning makes possible the safeguarding of residential areas - busi -
ness areas are protected for development in logical areas - and in-
I dustrial districts may be preserved in locations with good access
to main travel routes and utilities .
In general , the public health , safety and welfare are
IIpromoted through zoning in the following ways :
( 1 ) Property values are protected since uses which would lessen
IIvalues are not allowed in areas where conflict would occur .
( 2 ) Growth potentiality is increased by the reservation of adequate
land for all uses .II ( 3 ) Established business areas are protected against the indis -
criminate development of business buildings wherever vacant
IIor cheap land exists .
( 4 ) The public tax base is stabilized and maintained .
II ( 5 ) Lending institutions make higher loans in areas protected by
zoning .
I ( 6 ) Increased safety and consequent lower fire insurance rates re-
sult from the prevention of overcrowding and segregation of
hazardous uses .
$ ( 7 ) Residents are protected against loss of light and air due to
the bulk and proximity of' neighboring developments .
1, (8 ) Fire fighting efficiency is aided by the reservation of front ,
side and rear yards .
V (9 ) P4iblic health is protected from diseases resulting from unsani -
tary , overcrowded conditions .
I ( 10 ) Street and Highway congestion , safety and construction costs
are influenced by off-street parking requirements , specifica -
thons for adequate sight distance at intersections , and front
Iyard and setback requirements .
( 11 ) Utility , school , park and other public requirements may be
more efficiently provided where zoning indicates future land
Iuse and densities .

INTRODUCTION
I
1 The zoning of some unincorporated areas in Weld County , Colo-
rado , has been requested by certain residents in order to preserve
the value of their properties . These individuals realize that mini -
mum standards for new development are essential , if many desirable
features of the present County are to be preserved . Also these pro-
perty owners wish to insure their own investments by having some
knowledge of future development trends . As examples , a new business
unit will wish to locate with good access to future highway routes
and away from industrial nuisances , just as a new residential develop-
ment will desire to locate away from flood hazards and without con-
flict from normal business expansion .
In order to assist with the zoning of various areas which are
in the path of population expansion in Weld County , the Board of
County Commissioners have appointed a Planning Commission . Members
of this advisory board , who serving without pay , aid in the prepara-
tion of plans and standards for future growth . One of their responsi -
bilities is to work with property owners in areas where an interest
has been expressed for zoning .
The terms of this suggested zoning text have been written for
the special requirements of Weld County . Complicated , involved zon-
ing terms and unnecessary cross -references have been minimized in
order for residents to easily determine how the proposed law would
operate . Wherever applicable , provisions of the City of Greeley
Zoning Ordinance have been used , so that unnecessary confusion of
terms may he avoided .
Further information may be obtained by contacting members of
1 the Weld County Planning Commission or other property owners who
have been appointed on special advisory zoning committees .

(a ) TRANSITION SURFACE
' Transition Surfaces are established adjacent to each
instrument and non- instrument runway and approach
surface as indicated on the zoning map . Transition
surfaces symmetrically located on either side of run-
ways have variable widths as shown on the zoning map .
Transition surfaces extend outward from a line 125
feet on either side of the centerline of the non- instru-
ment runway , for the length of such runway plus 200
feet on each end ; and 500 feet on either side of the
' centerline of the instrument runway , for the length of
such runway plus 200 feet on each end , and are paral -
lel and level with such runway centerlines . The
Transition Surfaces along such runways slope upward
' and outward one ( 1 ) foot vertically for each seven ( 7 )
feet horizontally to the point where they intersect
the horizontal surface . Further , Transition Surfaces
' are established adjacent to both instrument and non-
instrument approach surfaces for the entire length of
the approach surfaces . These Transition Surfaces have
' variable widths , as shown on the zoning map . Such
Transition Surfaces flare symmetrically with either
side of the runway approach surfaces from the base of
such surfaces and slope upward and outward at the rate
' of one ( 1 ) foot vertically for each seven ( 7 ) feet
horizontally to the points where they intersect the
surfaces of the horizontal and conical surfaces . Addi -
tionally , Transition Surfaces are established adjacent
to the instrument approach surfaces where they project
through and beyond the limits of the conical surface ,
extending a distance of 5 , 000 feet measured horizon-
tally from the edge of the instrument approach surfaces
at right angles to the continuation of the centerline
of the runway .

II a . Rezoning request number •
b . From zoning district to zoning district ;
c . Date and place of public hearing ;
d . Location and phone number of the public office where
additional information can be obtained .
8 . 3 Reasons for Rezoning
IIRequests for rezoning of tracts within Weld County should be
supported by detailed and substantial evidence that such re -
1 zoning is necessary . Recent findings and oral statements by
the petitioners should show very clearly that either the origi -
nal zoning was faulty or that changing conditions in the area
I now justify a new classification . Without the presentation
of such supporting documentation , the County Planning Commis -
sion should not recommend a change in zoning .
' The following arguments which are frequently presented are
not sufficient grounds for rezoning :
I 1 . "The area has no other practical use ; "
2 . "The proposed rezoning would allow the "highest and best
use of the land " ; "
3 . "A non-conforming use is located on the property ; "
1 4 . "The area adjoins land already zoned in this manner ; "
5 . "No one in the neighborhood objects ; "
6 . " If the zoning is granted , we will agree to use it only
li for certain purposes ; "
7 . "You haven ' t given us any reasons for not making the
change . "
IAlthough each of the preceding arguments has some validity ,
no one argument alone is sufficient grounds for rezoning .
There must be definite proof that the area requested for
1
change has unique characteristics which distinguish it from
surrounding lands and thus make its rezoning essential .
Whenever a change is recommended , the Planning Commission
1 must assume that the most detrimental uses permitted in such
zone might occur . Furthermore , once a change is made , the
Planning Commission must recognize the precedent which is
