RE: HEARING TO SHOW WHETHER CAUSE EXISTS FOR REVOCATION OF USR #1351
FOR A USE SIMILAR TO A JUNKYARD/SALVAGE YARD (POLICE IMPOUND LOT) IN
THE A (AGRICULTURAL) ZONE DISTRICT-JAMES WRENFROW
A public hearing was conducted on January 12, 2011, at 10:00 a.m., with the following present:
Commissioner Barbara Kirkmeyer, Chair
Commissioner Sean P. Conway, Pro-Tem
Commissioner William F. Garcia
Commissioner David E. Long
Commissioner Douglas Rademacher
Also present:
Acting Clerk to the Board, Esther Gesick
County Attorney, Bruce Barker
Planning Department representative, Tom Parko
The following business was transacted:
I hereby certify that pursuant to Probable Cause Resolution #2010-1805, dated August 9, 2010,
a public hearing was conducted on September 1, 2010, to Show whether cause exists for
revocation of Use by Special Review Permit #1351 for a Use Similar to a Junkyard/Salvage
Yard (police impound lot) in the A (Agricultural) Zone District. At said hearing, the Board
deemed it advisable to continue the matter to September 8, 2010, to allow adequate time to
meet publication requirements. On September 8, 2010, pursuant to a legal notice dated
August 20, 2010, and duly published August 25, 2010, in the Fort Lupton Press, the Board
deemed it advisable to continue the matter to December 8, 2010, to allow adequate time for
clarification of the ownership of the property, and then again to January 12, 2011, in order to
allow adequate time for staff to make an additional attempt to provide notice to the property
owner. At said hearing on January 12, 2011, Bruce Barker, County Attorney, made this a
matter of record.
Tom Parko, Department of Planning Services, provided a brief summary of the location of the
site, which is currently approved for the operation of a police impound lot. He explained a
Health Violation was issued for excessive trash and debris on the property, at which time the
Department of Planning Services became involved and determined non-compliance with the
permitted use of a police impound lot. Mr. Parko stated since September, 2010, staff has been
unsuccessful at contacting the owner(s), although certified mailings were sent for each of the
previous hearings. He stated staff did receive a signed certification concerning the notice which
was sent for today's hearing; however, they have not been contacted to address any of the
outstanding issues, the telephone numbers on file are not current, and the owner does not have
a listed number. He stated staffs' recommendation is to revoke the permit. He verified they
have tried to work with the applicant; however, all attempts have been disregarded and no
progress has been made.

Chair Kirkmeyer confirmed that neither Mr. Wrenfrow, nor a representative, were present to
speak concerning this matter. In response to Commissioners Long and Conway, Mr. Parko
confirmed notice of this hearing was also provided to Mr. Wrenfrow's wife, April Wrenfrow.
Chair Kirkmeyer provided the opportunity for public testimony; however, none was provided.
Commissioner Garcia moved to revoke Use by Special Review Permit #1351 based on
continuing evidence of noncompliance with the permitted Use Similar to a Junkyard/Salvage
Yard (police impound lot) in the A (Agricultural) Zone District. The motion was seconded by
Commissioner Conway. Commissioner Garcia stated this issue has been discussed on several
occasions; however, Mr. Wrenfrow has failed to make an appearance, and although his wife
came once and attempted to find a solution, no further progress has been made and this has
been an on-going problem that needs to be resolved. Commissioner Conway commented the
issue came to the Board's attention due to a serious Health violation, and staff did a great job
cleaning up the site in an expeditious manner. He stated the prior reason for a continuance was
to allow Ms. Wrenfrow the opportunity to have the property transferred to her name and
commence with improvements to the site; however, it does not appear she intends to proceed
with that option. There being no further discussion, the motion carried unanimously and the
hearing was completed at 10:06 a.m.
This Certification was approved on the 17th day of January, 2011.
