County, CO
Location: North of and adjacent to CR 6 and approximately '/. mile East of 1-25
Size of Parcel: +/- 8.75 Acres
Parcel Number: 1467 23 000005
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.G.2 (A.Policy 7.2) states: "Conversion of agricultural land to nonurban
residential, commercial and industrial uses should be accommodated when the subject
site is in an area that can support such development, and should 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 residential in nature. 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
USR-1737 Hefner Page 3
required in order to make the determination that the proposed use is compatible with the
• surrounding uses." Condition #6 requires the applicant to screen the outdoor storage
and parking areas from surrounding properties and public rights of way.
B. Section 23-2-220.A.2 -- The proposed use is consistent with the intent of the A
(Agricultural) Zone District. Section 23-3-40.B.4, Section 23-3-40.R, and Section 23-3-
40.L of the Weld County Code allows for A Site Specific Development Plan and a Special
Review Permit for a business permitted as a use by right or accessory use in the
Commercial Zone District (storage of commercial equipment and vehicles, fabrication,
auto storage and repair) and Agricultural Service establishments primarily engaged in
performing agricultural, animal husbandry or horticultural services on a fee or contract
basis, including: Farm equipment sales, repair and installation facilities and one (1)
Single Family Dwelling Unit per Lot other than those permitted under Section 23-3-20 A
in the A(Agricultural) Zone District.
Currently the property is in violation (ZCV09-00114) for the operation of a commercial
business and commercial storage without an approved and recorded Use by Special
Review permit (USR). If the USR is approved, the violation will be closed. If denied, the
case shall be referred to the County Attorney's office but delay legal action for 30 days in
order to give the applicant's time to remove one of homes and the commercial business
and storage.
C. Section 23-2-220.A.3 -- The uses which will be permitted will be compatible with the
existing surrounding land uses.
The property to the west is in Althen Boyer Subdivision and is zoned C-3 (Business
Commercial) and currently houses several commercial operations. The property to the
north, south and east is within the City and County of Broomfield. The property is located
• within the three mile referral area for the Cities of Dacono and Northglenn, and the Towns
of Frederick and Erie, Adams County and the City and County of Broomfield. The Town
of Erie in their referral dated 2/8/2010 indicated no conflicts with their interest. The Weld
County Department of Planning Services has not received referrals from Cities of Dacono
and Northglenn, Town of Frederick, Adams County and the City and County of
Broomfield. Staff believes that the Conditions of Approval and Development Standards
will ensure that the use will be compatible with existing 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 lie
within the three mile referral area for the Cities of Dacono and Northglenn, and the Towns
of Frederick and Erie, Adams County and the City and County of Broomfield. The Town
of Erie in their referral dated 2/8/2010 indicated no conflicts with their interest. The Weld
County Department of Planning Services has not received referrals from Cities of Dacono
and Northglenn, Town of Frederick, Adams County and the City and County of
Broomfield. The property to the west is in Althen Boyer Subdivision and is zoned C-3
(Business Commercial). The property to the north, south and east is within the City and
County of Broomfield. The City and County of Broomfield did not respond to the referral
request. Staff believes that the Conditions of Approval and Development Standards will
ensure that the use will be compatible with existing 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, Capital Expansion Impact
Fee, and the Stormwater/Drainage Impact Fee area.
USR-1737 Hefner Page 4
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 "Prime (Irrigated) Farmlands of National Importance" as
delineated on the "Important Farmlands of Weld County" map, dated 1979. This size of
the parcel (8.75 acres) and is currently developed as a residential property therefore it is
not conducive to farming.
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.
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.

34. 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
USR-1737 Hefner Page 10
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.

will take place in the Hearing Room, Weld County Planning Department, 918 10'" Street, Greeley, Colorado. A
subsequent hearing will be held on June 16, 2010 at 10:00 a.m., in the Chambers of the Board of County
Commissioners, Weld County Centennial Center, 915 109) Street, First Floor, Greeley, Colorado. It is recommended
that you and/or a representative be in attendance to answer any questions the Planning Commission members or
Board of County Commissioners may have.

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 scheduled Planning
Commission hearing. You may view the staff report at

Michelle,
In regards to the animal units on the property, we plan to keep it under the 4 per acre allowed in the Ag
zone district. Probably around 25 horses and a few dogs, goats, etc. The vehicle trips will
never exceed 60 trips per day.
If you have any other questions, please let us know.

Hi,
I am working on processing your Use by Special Review Permit and I wanted to make sure I verify that the number of
animal units will not exceed the uses allowed in the Ag zone district. I also wanted to know if the number of vehicle
irips per day for the animal boarding and training facility will not exceed 60 trips per day. Please let me know your

SUBJECT: 7-Day Completeness Review, Troy & Judy Hefner
PA09-099
Weld County Public Works has received the submittal application for the 7-Day Completeness
Review. This phase of the planning process is a content review of the submitted materials,
NOT a technical review. Comments made during this phase of the process will not be all-
inclusive, and will address the critical issues of concern including but not limited to the Site Plan,
Traffic Study, Preliminary Drainage Report, Geotechnical Soils Report, Flood Hazard
Development Permit, and Questionnaire. The Public Works Department will perform a detailed
technical review of the project once the submittal application is deemed acceptable and is
promoted to the review phase of the planning process.
Summary: The application is not complete. The applicant needs to add some additional
answers to the Questionnaire and provide a 24"x36" plat drawing identifying the multiple use
and locations in the next submittal. The applicant also needs to provide water quality feature
• calculations and identify the feature on the plat.
Site Plan Review: The applicant is identifying multiple uses for the property. Identify and label
the location for the particular use such as Unit D is a particular use or Unit C is another type of
use. Show employee and customer parking, future location of the new metal building, identify if
the access and circulation or gravel, asphalt or the equivalent, show location of water quality
feature. — N i S3\95, twos,
Traffic Study: No traffic study is required; however, the applicant will need to a list of
estimated number of trips per day as well as any deliveries. The applicant indicates in the
Questionnaire, Item No. 10, Vehicle Traffic, has listed semi truck with low boy trailer, dump truck
or trailer along with passenger vehicles, delivery vehicles, horse trailers, etc. Public Works
requests that the applicant apply an approximate number of vehicles such as one semi or five
semis.
Preliminary Drainage: A preliminary drainage report is not required for the application.
I' However, the applicant was informed at the Pre-App meeting that they would need to provide a
water quality feature. The calculations and supporting documentation for the water quality
feature were not included with the application. Please see the attached information regarding
the calculations required for sizing of a water quality feature.
Geotechnical Soil Report: No geotechnical soils report is required at this time. In the future
when the proposed metal building is applied for with the building inspection, one will be
required.
• Special Flood Hazard Area: This area is not in a Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) as
determined by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).

• Questionnaire: In the questionnaire the applicant is identifying who is taking care of the
animals on the property such as animal boarding and training. Either additional people that
come to the site to ride their animals or care for them? If so, additional numbers need to be
provided in Items No. 5.
Item No. 10, Vehicle Traffic: Identify how many semi trucks, dump trucks, or trailers will be
parked or will utilize the site. The applicant needs to provide a 24"x36" plat drawing to be able
,j to identify all the multiple uses and locations. Identify on the plat drawing that WCR 6 has 60
feet of right-of-way and is maintained by the City and County of Broomfield. The access
approach to WCR 6 should be a hard surface or the equivalent such as recycled asphalt or
concrete to keep from tracking mud and debris on to WCR 6.

DRAINAGE CRITERIA MANUAL(V. 3) STORMWATER QUALITY MANAGEMENT
•
basins can provide less holding time for the predominant number of smaller storms. Larger basins can
result in less net reduction of pollutants than is obtained when using the recommended 80th percentile
capture volume that can be obtained from Figure SQ-2. Storms larger than the 80th percentile events still
receive some treatment when their capacity is exceeded by larger storms, but at a somewhat lower
efficiency. Thus,the law of diminishing returns for cost-effective pollutant removal takes effect, not only
because of the large number of small storms found in the total population of storms, but because the first
flush of runoff for larger storm is also captured and that pollutant removal continues to occur for in-line
capture basins when the runoff exceeds their design capacity.
4.4 Determining the Water Quality Capture Volume
4.4.1 Use of Directly Connected Impervious Area
The procedures described in the RAINFALL and in the RUNOFF chapters of Volume 1 of the Manual are
intended for the design of drainages and flood facilities that prevent damage to property and help protect
human life. These procedures show that the depth of rainfall produced from a design storm varies
somewhat throughout the Denver region and that runoff is a function of total imperviousness. Water
quality enhancement focuses more on the smaller events that deliver frequent flow pulses and pollutant
loads to the receiving waters. The runoff volume for smaller events is especially sensitive to the
• impervious area that is hydraulically connected to the stormwater runoff system.
The impervious portion of a watershed determines the runoff volume that needs to be used for the design
of water quality facilities, and the percentage of impervious surface therefore becomes important in the
design of structural BMPs. The RUNOFF chapter of the Manual, Volume 1, includes the methodology for
calculating basin imperviousness. This procedure needs to be modified, however, when using the
practice of minimizing directly connected impervious areas in combination with extended detention
basins, retention ponds, wetlands, and other practices depended on a design water quality capture
volume. Whenever applicable, the needed modifications are described in the appropriate chapters of this
volume of the Manual.
4.4.2 Water Quality Capture Volume (WQCVI,
All structural BMPs recommended in this volume of Manual are based on the 80th percentile event.
Specific guidance for finding the needed WQCV is provided in each BMP types' design section. This
WQCV varies with the type of BMP used and is based on the time it takes to fully drain the brim-full
WQCV. Figure SQ-2 summarizes the WQCV requirements as a function of the tributary catchments total
imperviousness as a ratio of the total area of the catchment for 6-, 12-, 24-, and 40-hour drain times of
the WQCV.

STORMWATER QUALITY MANAGEMENT DRAINAGE CRITERIA MANUAL(V. 3)
•
Figure SQ-2 is appropriate for use in Colorado's high plains near the foothills. For other portions of
Colorado or of United States,the WQCV obtained from this figure can be adjusted using the following
relationships:
WQCV
WQCVo =d6
0.43
in which,
WQCV = Water quality capture volume taken from Figure SQ-2
WQCV0 = Water quality capture volume outside the Denver region
d6 = Depth of average runoff producing storm from Figure SQ-3 (watershed inches)
Once the WQCV in watershed inches is found from Figure SQ-2, then determine the required storage
volume in acre-feet as follows:
Required storage =[WQCVJ(Area)
LL 12 J
in which,
• Required storage = Required storage volume in acre-feet
Area = The tributary catchment's area upstream in acres
The independent variable in Figure SQ-2 is the total imperviousness ratio (i.e., i=1„,q/100)of the tributary
watershed (catchment). The chapter on RUNOFF in Volume 1 of the Manual contains guidance for how
to find the total imperviousness of a watershed and its use is recommended. Figures SQ-4,SQ-5 and
SQ-6 are duplicated in this chapter to help the reader estimate the imperviousness of single family
residential areas. Note that these figures require the knowledge of the average housing densities,
types of housing, and average human occupied total square footage of the houses in the area to find
the imperviousness of these areas.

• On Friday, September 18, 2009 an informal discussion took place at the Greeley Administrative
Offices Conference Room regarding a proposed change of zone. (The legal description is
E2W2SE4SW4 of Section 23, Ti N, R68W of the 6`h P.M.; Situs Address is 4343 CR 6)
Background Information:
The site is currently zoned agricultural and encumbers approximately 10 acres. The applicants
wish to either obtain a Use by Special Review permit or to rezone the site to allow storage of
business equipment as well as other commercial uses.
Two homes are included on this site.
The applicants indicated that there may be some outside storage to the west of the barn. This
would include aggregate material or trailers.
Health Department
According to county records, one septic system is shown for the house built in 1999 (Septic
Permit#SP-9900524). The applicants would need to provide a Statement of Existing for the
second house.
The homes share one water tap.
There are no restrooms in the barn. Restrooms would need to be available for the employees.
The restrooms in the home are allowed; however the system needs to be evaluated by an
engineer for adequacy.
• The barn is used for storage. No repairs or maintenance are performed on the equipment.
Public Works
No Traffic Study is required; however the applicant will need to list an estimated number of trips
per day as well as any deliveries. A description of the types of equipment should be included.
• Access to site is from CR 6, which Broomfield has jurisdiction.
The applicant shall identify any outside storage and equipment parking area. The applicant
indicated that the parking is gravel based.
The site is not located in a floodplain.
Staff recommended increasing the USR boundary to include any drainage requirements.
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
Staff informed the applicant that the barn may have been permitted under an Ag Exempt
building; therefore Change of Use permits would need to be applied for. In addition to the
building permit fees, there are Road Impact fees, Capital Expansion fees, and Stormwater fees.
For an estimation, please contact the Building Department at 970-353-6100 ext. 3540.
Employees come to the site and leave to go to the separate job sites.
Staff recommended three options for the applicants to proceed with to ultimately obtain allow the
proposed and existing uses:
1. Use by Special Review Permit (USR). This process would allow the two homes on site
with a shared tap. This use is site specific; therefore the applicant tailors it to what the
use is. If the use changes, the applicant would need to amend the USR, thereby going
through the process again. This application is brought before the Planning Commission
and ultimately is approved by the Board of County Commissioners. The advantage to
this process is that it requires one application versus two. Also, there would be an
opportunity to include the two homes as part of the USR; by doing so, the one non-
conforming residence could be enlarged or replaced in time, if so desired. Currently, as
a non-conforming structure, it would not be allowed to. The fee is approximately $2500.
2. Change of Zone (COZ). This process changes the zone to the desired zone. Upon
Board approval, the applicants would need to apply for a Site Plan Review (SPR) for the
specific uses allowed on site. The SPR is approved administratively. The Change of
Zone is permanent and does not allow homes on the site; therefore both homes would
be non-conforming uses. It was noted that in the commercial zone district may not allow
the commercial storage as proposed. The fees are approximately $3500.
3. Planned Unit Development (PUD). This process is used to define a zone district and
customize the site. This is a two step process with the first being a Sketch Plan. The
• next step combines the Change of Zone and Final Plat. The fees are approximately
$3500.
Because the site is currently in violation a complete application will need to be submitted by the
end of November to avoid violation hearings.
• •
• 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.
End memorandum.

12/08/2009 10:00 AM
• The above mentioned property remains in violation of the following Section(s) of the Weld County
Code:
Chapter 23, Article 111(3), Division 1 A(Agricultural)Zone District
23-3-20 Uses allowed by right.
23-3-20.A One (1) Single Family Dwelling Unit and Auxiliary quarters on a parcel of land

23-3-30 Accessory uses.
23-3-40 Uses by special review
23-3-40.L One (1) SINGLE-FAMILY DWELLING UNIT per LOT other than those permitted

23-3-40.R 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 subdivision. PUD development proposals shall not be permitted
to use the special review permit process to develop.
To bring your property into compliance with the Weld County Code:
As I have previously indicated the operation of a commercial business or storage of commercii
equipment requires a Use by Special Review(USR) permit. It is my understanding that the
Use by Special Review (USR) application process was explained during the Pre-Application
meeting. Please keep in mind that we do have On-Call Planners that are available to assit the
public with any questions or concerns. They are available Monday thru Thursday from 7:30 -
4:30 or you can call them at 970-353-6100 Ext. 3540. To better serve you please bring this
letter with you.
• Additionally, the Use by Special Review (USR) permit will need to address the presence of the
second house. The building permit records from the previous owner indicate that the second
home (mobile/modular home) was to be removed from the property upon completion of the
