WELD COUNTY PLANTING COMMISSION GrlE LEY.COLO. 1516 Hospital Road June 8, 1976 Weld County Board of Adjustment Greeley, CO 80631 RE: V-623:76:12 Dear Board Members: The attached application and related materials are in reference to a re- quest by Joe Seewald, for a variance of 180' from the requirement of 180 feet of lot frontage on a public road as set forth in Section 9-4 (A) (3) of the Weld County Subdivision Regulations and Section 3.14 of the Weld County Zoning Resolution. The subject property is described as part of the H'2 of the SW'„ of Section 31 , T3N, R68W of the 6th P.M. , Weld County, Color- ado. Said property is located 112 miles north and 4 miles west of Del Canino on the east side of County Road 1 . Mr. Seewald has been granted a request for a lot size variance by the Board of County Commissioners on May 12, 1976, and he is requesting approval of this lot frontage variance before he applies for a Recorded Exemption before the Board of County Commissioners. The Planning Commission staff recommends approval for the following reasons: 1 . As stated by Mr. Seewald the location of the proposed lot is dependent upon the location of the domestic well , and said well is required to be a certain distance from nearby existing wells. Therefore, it is the Staff' s feeling that Mr. Seewald has a valid request due to the location restrictions imposed on the well . 2. No opposition from surrounding property owners to this variance request has been received by our office. R `p ctfully, fV lfy'7. homas E.

The continued splitting off of one acre parcels is not consistent with the agricultural land use designation. This application is also in con- flict with the Growth Guidance Policy of the St. Vrain Valley Plan. This policy establishes the Prime Urbanized Area, which is the area most appropriate and logical for urban growth to occur. The property in question is not within the Prime Urbanized Area. 2) Access to the property is shown to be provided by a 30' ? access easement extending to County Line Road. Lining County Line Road with access drives is not in the best y interest of the citizenry as the drives create conflicts with traffic flow and this roadway is planned as an 0 arterial on the St. Vrain Valley and Weld County plans. 3) In view of the previous lot splits on this property and the resultant piece-meal development pattern occurring it appears the best use of the land is not being preserved. D 4) It is our understanding at this time there is no City water line to this property. A 2" line is anticipated to be run out 17th Avenue to the Jim Hamm nature area (Hetzel Lake) and extend south to 9th Avenue to connect with an existing line. •nR aaw w- efr- tae.. . myryymywy.wemyymmwypm ,>».Q .:*,o aew.“ev ar•.

Said parcel is located 11/2 miles north and 4 miles west of Del Camino on the western fringe of Union Reservoir to the east of County Line Road. The subject property contains approximately 61 .8 irrigated acres. The request is to split the property into parcels of 1 .148 acres and 60.65 acres. The 60.65 acre parcel has existing improvements which is Mr. Seewald' s residence. The 1 .148 acre parcel has no existing improvements, but if this lot size variance and a subsequent recorded exemption were to be approved, for residential purposes by Mr. Seewald's second daughter, Marsha Willis. Soils in this area are Class II (Agricultural Capability Classification) . Mr. Seewald applied for and was granted a Recorded Exemption (RE-106) on January 30, 1974. That request was to provide a residential lot for Mr. Seewald's first daughter. Prior to that split, Mr. Seewald transferred a small parcel in January of 1972 to Mr. Anderson. Based upon the information submitted, the Planning staff recommends for denial for the following reasons: 1 . The proposed split does not comply with the Weld County Comprehensive Plan because it would promote non-agri- cultural use of agricultural land and it would encourage urban encroachment on rural land use. WELD COUNTY COMMISSIONERS JUNE STEINMARK VICTOR JACOBUCCI NORMAN CARLSON GLENN K. BILLINGS ROY MOSEfi County Commissioners May 7, 1976 Page 2 2. The lot size variance request is not in compliance with the intent clause of the recorded exemption procedure (Section 9-2 of the Weld County Subdivision Regulations). Said clause states: "The intent in establishing the Recorded Exemption procedure is to provide, in accordance with the Weld County Comprehensive Plan, a means whereby non-pro- ductive agricultural lands may be developed for higher or more productive uses, in-so-far as such uses are compatible with surrounding agricul - tural uses in areas where such land divisions are proposed. (Rev. 4/17/74)" Soils in this area are Class II. The granting of this request and a subsequent recorded exemption would allow for the con- version of productive agricultural lands since a new set of improvements would be allowed on the 1 .148 acre parcel . 3. The proposed split is not in conformance with the intent clause of the Agricultural Zone District (Section 3.3 A of the Weld County Zoning Resolution) which states: "Intent - The intent in establishing the A-I .Agri- cultural Zone District is to allow all agricultural and related uses in those areas in which agriculture is and should continue to be the predominant land use. This district is intended to discourage agricultural uses as the highest and best use of the land in the district as compared with other uses in conflict therewith, and to provide for the orderly expansion of urban growth in conformance with the Weld County Comprehensive Plan. " The request would not be encouraging agricultural uses as the highest and best uses, it would not be providing for the orderly expansion of urban growth, and it would further diminish the size of the agricultural unit. 4. As stated earlier, Mr. Seewald was granted a Recorded Exemption on January 30, 1974. And now, only a little more than two years later, Mr. Seewald is requesting to further split the property. As stated in Section 9-4 (A) of the Weld County Subdivision Regulations: "The Board shall not approve the exemption of the pro- posed land division unless it finds the following: (Rev. 4/17/74) County Commissioners May 7, 1976 Page 3 (1 ) That the proposed lots are not part of a recorded exemption from the definition of "Subdivision" or "subdivided land" or a subdivision approved within less than five (5) years previous". Section 9-4 (A) (3) of the Weld County Subdivision Regulations states: "That the lots resulting from the proposed land division shall be accessible from an existing public road with a minimum frontage in conformance with the Weld County Zoning Resolution;" The required road frontage in the Agricultural District is 180 feet as set forth in Section 3.14 of the Weld County Zoning Resolution. Mr. Seewald 's request as presented would have only 30 feet of road frontage. Therefore, if this lot size variance is approved by the Board then Mr. Seewald should obtain approval from the Board of Adjustments for a variance of 150 feet from the 180 feet road frontage requirement prior to approval of a recorded exemption on the subject parcel .
