EXHIBIT t )sR #WM i 2009-1380 • W1�YG COLORADO • • May 6, 2009 Joel Zapien Zapien Bothers Concrete, Inc. Post Office Box 1370 Brighton, CO 80601 Subject: Planning Commission hearing May 5, 2009 Dear Joel: DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING SERVICES Greeley Planning Office 918 Tenth Street Greeley, Colorado 80631 WEBSITE: www.co.weld.co.us E-MAIL: kogle@co.weld.co.us PHONE (970) 353-6100, EXT. 3549 FAX (970) 304-6498 In follow-up to our telephone conversation of May 5, 2009, the Department of Planning Services per your direction requested a continuance of this land use case until June 2, 2009. Given your direction seeking the continuance due to decisions within your control, the Department of Planning Services is invoking Chapter 5, Appendix 5-J, subheading number 18 which addresses the Department of Planning Services Land Use Fees. The fee associated with the requested hearing continuance is being imposed, in this instance the fee is five hundred (500.00) and no/100s dollars. This action was taken as the property is currently in violation (ZCV07-01039) due to the storage and operation of a commercial business and equipment storage without first obtaining the necessary land use permits. Payment of this fee is required upon receipt of this letter. Failure to comply will result in additional actions taken by County staff, including yet not limited to, the recording of the Site Specific Development Plan and a Special Review Permit Plat. Also, I am enclosing the five documents prepared for the Planning Commissioners hearing. From the letters received from the adjacent neighbors, there appears to be opposition to your facility being located adjacent to Wattenberg. This is an issue that you should be prepared to address at the public hearings. Should you have additional questions or concerns, please contact me at the office. Thank you. Sincerely, Kim Ogle Planning Services pc: Memorandum May 5, 2009 Land Use Fee Schedule File: USR-1684 We, the undersigned, are opposed to the proposed petitions allowing individuals to drive large and small commercial vehicles through the streets of Wattenberg. The following are just a few of the reasons for our opposition of such authorizations: 1. The People of Wattenberg will be immensely affected. a. There are many school age children that wait for the bus on the main street corners. b. - There are no sidewalks in Wattenberg allowing for a safe place for them to stand or walk as a safeguard against large and small commercial vehicles. 2. The streets of Wattenberg are not built for the heavy weight and traffic of such type of vehicles. 3. Our water lines run under these streets and will soon be damaged as a result of the weight of such type of vehicles. 4. On many occasions these large vehicles have had to stop and back up on to Weld County Road 6 just to drive on to the streets of Wattenberg. 5. The noise is very disruptive seven days a week and at all hours of the day. 6. The diesel fumes are a health hazard for the residents of Wattenberg. 7. There have been damages made to personal properties by such type vehicles. 8. It appears that the Wattenberg Community has become a storage grounds for many commercial vehicles and equipment. This has been an ongoing problem. Many community members have attended meetings, wrote written concerns regarding the above mentioned problems and it appears that their concerns continue to go unacknowledged at the present time. Many community members have full time employment and are unable to attend scheduled hearings during the regular business day. We have signed this petition in the hopes that our concerns be heard and that this petition be taken into full consideration prior to authorization of large and small commercial vehicles being allowed full access through our small community. fs Apo `I rl- l3g o If you have any questions please feel free to contact any of the undersigned.

GkS-1. 5e•'; _.6$`7_.C;4' To Whom It May Concern: This is the second time we have felt the need to submit a letter regarding the commercial vehicle problem that the community of Wattenberg is currently facing. Our home is located right on the corner of Mary Avenue and Weld County Road 6. We are first hand witnesses to the hazards of this type of traffic. On many occasions, even as this letter is being written, that these type of vehicles have problems turning onto Mary Avenue or onto Weld County Road 6. When they attempt to turn onto Mary Avenue they have had to literally back up on to Road 6 and go forward again to complete the turn into Wattenberg. This is very dangerous because of the traffic on Road 6. As these vehicles exit Wattenberg on to Road 6 they take two lanes to turn (once again a danger to oncoming traffic on Road 6). As a result of this traffic there are huge pot holes turning onto Mary Avenue. We have two school age children that walk to the corner of Edward Street to catch the school bus. On that bus stop alone there are approximately twelve students that range from elementary school to high school. These children are faced with standing on the corner by the stop sign. There are no sidewalks for them to stand on. This poses a danger on a daily basis. It is very dangerous for a large commercial vehicle to be zooming down the street and not be able to make sudden stops or see if there are small children in their path. I have heard other residents complain about the noise and the coming and going of vehicles during the day. We had never witnessed this until recently. I have been on medical leave for the past five weeks and I could not believe how many large vehicles passed by my home and woke me throughout the day during my recovery. If these vehicles are not allowed through residential areas in the city why should they be allowed through residential areas in our small town? We must rely on you in your appointed position in representing the people of our small town to put an end to the commercial vehicle traffic in Wattenberg. Si cerely, JOSC C.

WHEN THIS COMPANY "ZAPIEN BROTHERS" MOVED INTO THIS AREA, THEY BROUGHT SEMI -TRUCKS, INEXPERIENCE DRIVERS, EARLY AND LATE WORKING HOURS (NOT THE NORM.), DESTRUCTION TO PROPERTY, AND POLLUTION. WE DO NOT WANT TO SEE A REPEAT OF THIS SITUTATION. FURTHERMORE, THERE WERE INCIDENTS WHERE THERE EMPLOYEES (IN THEIR OWN VECHILES) WOULD MAKE THE MISTAKE OF DRIVING IN AND DRIVING OUT RECKLESSLY.
