WHEREAS, after reviewing Department of Planning Services concerns and hearing the testimony presented, the Board determined that said request shall be denied for the following reasons: 1. It is the opinion of the Board of County Commissioners that this proposal evades the purpose of Section 24-1-30 of the Weld County Code, in violation of the requirement of Code Section 24-8-20.A. The number of lots sharing a common access road is non -urban scale development and should be reviewed through the PUD process. The recorded exemption process is an exemption from the subdivision process and it is not adequate to address access, emergency services, and school district concerns. There is also not a public notice requirement for recorded exemptions, which is required for non -urban scaled PUDs and allows the public to express concerns or issues with the development. 2. The Board feels this division would be inconsistent with efficient and orderly development. The proposed recorded exemptions will be sharing a common access. The number of lots to be created (a total of eight, if all four recorded exemptions were approved) is consistent with a non -urban scale subdivision or Planned Unit Development (PUD). A PUD process is the appropriate process to address this proposal, as the recorded exemption process does not provide the appropriate review process to address concerns such as access, emergency services, and school district requirements. 3. The Board feels this proposal is not consistent with Chapter 22 of the Weld County Code 111111 1111 MI 11111 NEI III 1111111 III 'H Jill Jill 3656390 10/28/2009 01:44P Weld County, CO 1 of 2 R 0.00 D 0.00 Steve Moreno Clerk & Recorder 2009-2421 ec , ,A°i ,Mt /047/9 RE4815 RE #4815 - IVAR AND DONNA LARSON PAGE 2 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of County Commissioners of Weld County, Colorado, that the application of Ivar and Donna Larson for Recorded Exemption #4815 be, and hereby is, denied.

Cleveland Avenue, Loveland, CO 80537 REQUEST: Two -Lot Recorded Exemption LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Lot B of RE -2956; Part NE4 of Section 5, T4N, R68W of the 6th P.M., Weld County, CO PARCEL NUMBER: 1061 05 000039 PARCEL SIZE: +1- 4.8 acres ZONE DISTRICT: Agricultural WATER SOURCE: Lot A: Proposed North Weld County Water Lot B: Proposed North Weld County Water SEWER SOURCE: Lot A: Proposed septic system Lot B: Proposed septic system Description: This proposal is to split Lot B of RE -2956 which was approved by the Board of County Commissioners on January 29, 2001 into two lots. The Department of Planning Services recommended denial of RE -2956 and RE -2959 primarily due to concerns of creating a subdivision (4 -lots) without going through the process and requirements of the subdivision process and the creation of island parcels which would result (see the attached RE -2956 and RE -2959 staff recommendation). The applicants are now proposing to split Lots A and B of RE -2956 and Lots A and B of RE -2959 into a total of eight (8) lots. This would increase the number of lots from a total of four (4) to a total of eight (8). The four existing lots (Lots A and B of RE -2956 and Lots A and B of RE -2959) are presently vacant. The existing parcels are access by a 60 -foot access and utility easement that is privately maintained. The applicants recorded covenants for RE -2956 and RE -2959 (also known as Mountain View Estates) that govern future construction (building height, setbacks...) along with access maintenance requirements of the 60 -foot access and utility easement. The applicants have a provision in the existing covenants prohibiting the future subdivision of lots. If approved, there is a provision for the recording of amended covenants (reflecting the additional lots). The Department of Planning Services staff has reviewed this request and recommends that this request be denied for the following reasons: SERVICE, TEAMWORK, INTEGRITY, QUALITY 2009-2421 1. It is the opinion of the Department of Planning Services• staff that the applicant has not shown compliance with the following criteria as listed in Section 24-8-40.A through 24-8-40.O of the Weld County Code: Section 24-8-40.J: "The proposal is consistent with sound land use planning practices." - The proposed recorded exemptions will be sharing a common access. The number of lots to be created (a total of 8 if all four recorded exemptions are approved) is consistent with a non - urban scale subdivision or Planned Unit Development (PUD). A PUD process is the appropriate process to address this proposal as the recorded exemption process does not provide the appropriate review process to address concerns such as access, emergency services and school district requirements. Section 24-8-40.K: "The proposal is consistent with the Statement of Purpose as expressed in Section 24-1-30 of this Chapter." A. Assisting orderly and integrated development. B. Promoting the health, safety and general welfare of the residents of the County. C. Encouraging well -planned subdivisions by establishing adequate standards for design and improvement. Staff believes that the number of lots sharing a common access road is non -urban scale development and should be reviewed through the PUD process. The recorded exemption process is an exemption from the subdivision process and is not adequate to address access, emergency services, school district... concerns. There is also not a public notice requirement for recorded exemptions which is required for non -urban scale PUDs which allows the public to express any concerns/issues with the development. Should the Board of County Commissioners approve this request, the Department of Planning Services. staff recommends the following conditions be attached: 1. A Weld County septic permit is required for any proposed home. The septic system shall be installed according to the Weld County Individual Sewage Disposal System (I.S.D.S.) regulations. 2. Topographic or physical features of the proposed Lot A, such as ravines, ditches, streams etc. may limit the area available for a new or replacement septic system. Prior to recording the plat the Weld County Department of Public Health and Environment recommends that the applicant review the Weld County Code pertaining to septic systems to assure that any installed septic system will comply with all setback requirements found in the Code. In the event the proposed lot is not of sufficient size to allow the installation of a septic system the lot may need to be enlarged. 3. The West Greeley Soil Conservation District has provided information regarding the soils on the site. The applicant shall review the information and use it to positively manage on site soils. 4. Prior to recording the plat: A. The plat shall be titled: Recorded Exemption No. 1061-5-1 RE -4815 B. Lots A and B shall use the existing access point off of State Highway 60 as no additional accesses shall be granted. C. All approved accesses shall be clearly shown on the plat. SERVICE. TEAMWORK, INTEGRITY, QUALITY D. State Highway 60 requires 150 feet right-of-way at full build out. A total of 75 feet from the centerline of State Highway 60 shall be delineated as future right-of-way for State Highway 60. E. The applicant shall address the requirements of the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) as stated in their referral dated June 2, 2008. The applicant shall provide to the Weld County Department of Planning Services a copy of the access permit issued by the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) which grants access to State Highway 60, or written evidence that the applicant has complied with the requirements of the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT). A 60 foot wide access and utility easement for Lots A and B of RE -4815, RE -4816, RE -4817 and RE -4818 shall be indicated on the plat (in the same location as 60 -foot access easement on the RE -2956 plat recorded under reception # 2861021). The joint easement shall be dedicated for the use as shown using the language set forth in the Weld County Code, Appendix 24-F.2. The easement shall be graded and drained to provide all weather access. G. The applicant shall submit an amended declaration of protective covenants (to address the access and additional lots) for RE -4815, RE -4816, RE -4817 and RE -4818 (also know as Mountain View Estates) for review by the County Attorney's Office and Department of Planning Services.

The following notes shall be placed on the plat: 1) All proposed or existing structures will or do meet the minimum setback and offset requirements for the zone district in which the property is located. Pursuant to the definition of setback in the Weld County Code, the required setback is measured from the future right-of-way line. No building or structure as defined and limited to those occupancies listed as Groups A, B, E, F,H, I, M and R in Section 302.1 of the 2003 International Building Code, shall be constructed within a 200 -foot radius of any tank battery or within a 150 -foot radius of any wellhead. Any construction within a 200 -foot radius of any tank battery or 150 -foot radius of any wellhead shall require a variance from the terms of the Section 23-3-10 of the Weld County Code. 2) Any future structures or uses on site must obtain the appropriate zoning and building permits. 3) Lot A is not eligible for a future land exemption in accordance with Section 24-8- 20.C.1 of the Weld County Code. 4) Prior to the release of building permits, the applicant shall submit a recorded deed describing the Lot upon which the building permit is requested with the building permit applications. The legal description on such deed shall include the Lot designation and Recorded Exemption number. 4) Prior to the release of building permits, the applicant shall submit evidence to the Department of Planning Services that Lots A and/or B has an adequate water supply of sufficient quality, quantity and dependability. 5) Should noxious weeds exist on the property or become established as a result of the proposed development the applicant/landowner shall be responsible for controlling the noxious weeds, pursuant to Chapter 15, Articles I and II of the Weld County Code. 6) Building permits shall be obtained prior to the construction of any building. Buildings that meet the definition of an Ag Exempt Building per the requirements of Section 29- 1-20 and Section 29-3-20.B.13 of the Weld County Code do not need building permits, however, a Certificate of Compliance must be filed with the Planning Department and an electrical and/or plumbing permit is required for any electrical service to the building or water for watering or washing of livestock or poultry. 7) 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) 8) 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 and the Storm water/Drainage Impact Fee. (Ordinance 2005-8 Section 5-8-40) 9) Prior to the release of building permits on Lots A and/or B, the Lot owner shall verify with the nearest Town/City or Sanitation District to determine the location of the nearest sanitary sewer line. In accordance with the Weld County Code, if a sewer line exists within four hundred (400) feet of the property line and the sewer provider is willing to serve the proposed structure, a septic permit cannot be granted by the Weld County Department of Public Health and Environment. Evidence of such shall be submitted in writing to the Weld County Department of Planning Services. 10) Potential Purchasers are hereby notified that a confined animal feeding operation (USR-576 — a dairy for up to 1,000 cows and USR-590 — a dairy for up to 2,000 cows) is located directly east of the intersection of County Road 7 and State Highway 60. Off -site impacts that may be encountered include noise from trucks, tractors and equipment; dust from animal pens and odors from animal confinement, silage, and manure. 11) Recorded Exemptions on adjacent properties may raise the issue of compliance with the intent of the Recorded Exemption Process. Approval of this Recorded Exemption does not guarantee approval of future applications on adjacent properties. 12) WELD COUNTY'S RIGHT TO FARM: Weld County is one of the most productive agricultural counties in the United States, ranking fifth 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 longstanding 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 area: 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; and the use of pesticides and fertilizers in the fields, including the use of aerial spraying. Ditches and reservoirs cannot simply be moved out of the way of residential development without threatening the efficient delivery of irrigation to fields which is essential to farm production. 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. Weld County covers a land area of over 4,000 square miles in size (twice the State of Delaware) with more than 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. Snow removal for roads within subdivisions are of the lowest priority for public works or may be the private responsibility of the homeowners. 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. Children 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 present real threats to children. Controlling children's activities is important, not only for their safety, but also for the protection of the farmer's livelihood. Parents are responsible for their children. 5. The applicant shall submit two (2) paper copies of the plat for preliminary approval to the Weld County Department of Planning Services. Upon approval of the paper copies the applicant shall submit a Mylar plat along with all other documentation required as conditions of approval. The Mylar plat shall be recorded in the office of the Weld County Clerk and Recorder by Department of Planning Services Staff. The plat shall be prepared in accordance with the requirements of Section 24-8-60 of the Weld County Code. The Mylar plat and additional requirements shall be submitted within sixty (60) days from the date of the Board of County Commissioners resolution. The applicant shall be responsible for paying the recording fee. 6. In accordance with Weld County Code Ordinance 2005-7 approved June 1, 2005, should the plat not be recorded within the required sixty (60) days from the date the Administrative Review was signed a $50.00 recording continuance charge may be added for each additional 3 month period. The Department of Planning Services respectfully requests the surveyor provide a digital copy of this Recorded Exemption. Acceptable CAD formats are .dwg, .dxf, and .dgn (Microstation); acceptable GIS formats are ArcView shapefiles, Arclnfo Coverages and Arclnfo Export files format type is .e00. The preferred format for Images is .tif (Group 4). (Group 6 is not acceptable). This digital file may be sent to maps@co.weld.co.us. 8. The Weld County Department of Planning Staffs approval of this Recorded Exemption Application is based on satisfying the Conditions of Approval. Should an applicant be unwilling or unable to meet any one of these conditions within 60 days of approval, then this case will be forwarded to the Weld County Board of County Commissioners with a staff recommendation for denial. r fi WELD COUNTY, COLORADO DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING SERVICES 918 10T" STREET GREELEY, CO 80631 PHONE: 970-353-6100, EXT. 3540 / FAX: 970-304-6498 Date: r; i3 201: Receipt No. 11.56 Received From: WO ON 1 J L4 //./v Permit Type No. Description Fee 4221-RE/SE / L M ' ' /oaf) --- 4221-ZPMH 4221-USR 4221 -SITE PLAN REVIEW 4221 -CHANGE OF ZONE 4221-PUD 4221-MINOR/MAJOR SUB # OF BUILDABLE LOTS 4221 -ADDITIONAL 30% FEE FOR SUB's 4221 -RE -SUBDIVISIONS 4221 -BOA 4221-FHDP/GHDP 4430 -MAPS / POSTAGE 4430 -COPIES 4730 -INVESTIGATION FEE 6560 -RECORDING FEE MISC.

This would increase the number of lots from a total of four (4) to a total of eight (8). The four existing lots (Lots A and B of RE -2956 and Lots A and B of RE - 2959) are presently vacant. The existing parcels are access by a 60 -foot access and utility easement that is privately maintained. The applicants recorded covenants for RE -2956 and RE - 2959 (also known as Mountain View Estates) that govern future construction (building height, setbacks...) along with access maintenance requirements of the 60 -foot access and utility easement. The applicants have a provision in the existing covenants prohibiting the future subdivision of lots. If approved, there is a provision for the recording of amended covenants (reflecting the additional lots). Description of Surrounding Area: (Show Slides): This site is located within 1 mile of 5 planned unit developments (one 9 -lot PUD and one 5 -lot PUD). It is immediately to the east of Hacienda PUD. Staff Recommendation: It is the opinion of the Department of Planning Services staff that the applicant has not shown compliance with the following criteria as listed in Section 24-8-40.A through 24-8-40.O of the Weld County Code: Section 24-8-40.J: "The proposal is consistent with sound land use planning practices." - The proposed recorded exemptions will be sharing a common access. The number of lots to be created (a total of 8 if all four recorded exemptions are approved) is consistent with a non -urban scale subdivision or Planned Unit Development (PUD). A PUD process is the appropriate process to address this proposal as the recorded exemption process does not provide the appropriate review process to address concerns such as access, emergency services and school district requirements. Section 24-8-40.K: "The proposal is consistent with the Statement of Purpose as expressed in Section 24-1-30 of this Chapter." A. Assisting orderly and integrated development. B. Promoting the health, safety and general welfare of the residents of the County. C. Encouraging well -planned subdivisions by establishing adequate standards for design and improvement. Staff believes that the number of lots sharing a common access road is non -urban scale development and should be reviewed through the PUD process. The recorded exemption process is an exemption from the subdivision process and is not adequate to address access, emergency services, school district... concerns. There is also not a public notice requirement for recorded exemptions which is required for non -urban scale PUDs which allows the public to express any concerns/issues with the development. SERVICE, TEAMWORK, INTEGRITY, QUALITY ATTACHED CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL: The applicant shall submit an amended declaration of protective covenants (to address the access and additional lots) for RE -4815, RE -4816, RE -4817 and RE - 4818 (also know as Mountain View Estates) for review by the County Attorney's Office and Department of Planning Services. Upon approval, the applicant shall submit finalized copies of the amended covenants and the appropriate fee ($6 for the first page and $5 for each additional page) to the Department of Planning Services for recording in the Office of the Clerk and Recorder. (Department of Planning Services) H. The applicant shall submit a Private Improvements Agreement according to policy regarding collateral for improvements and post adequate collateral for access improvements. The applicant shall submit to the Department of Planning Services an itemized landscaping bid for review. The agreement and form of collateral shall be reviewed by County Staff and accepted by the Board of County Commissioners prior to recording the recorded exemption plat. Or the applic t may Department submit evidence that all the work has been completed and approved by the Public Works. The applicant shall attempt to address the requirements of the Berthoud Fire Protection District and stated in their referral and attached RE -2959 referral and letter received June 6, 2008. Written evidence of such shall be provided to the Department of Planning Services. (Installation of a Fire Hydrant) J. The applicant shall address the requirements of the Little Thompson Water District as stated in their letter dated May 16, 2008. Written evidence of such shall be provided to the Department of Planning Services. K.
