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 22-5-100.A(OG.Goal 5. )states"Oil and gas support facilities decisions which do
not rely on geology for locations shall be subjected to review...." This proposal has been
reviewed by the appropriate referral agencies and it has been determined that the
attached Conditions of Approval and Development Standards ensure that there are
adequate provisions for the protection of the health, safety and welfare of the inhabitants
of the neighborhood and county. A screening plan, lighting plan and long-term road
maintenance and improvements agreement are attached as conditions of approval to
address the impacts of the proposed use.
• 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.A.2 of the Weld County Code provides for Oil
USR-1665,HIGH PLAINS DISPOSAL,INC.page 2
and Gas Support and Service as a Use by Special Review in the A(Agricultural)Zone
District.
• C. Section 23-2-220.A.3--The uses which will be permitted will be compatible with the
existing surrounding land uses. The proposed site is bordered by an agricultural parcel to
the east, a parcel with oil and gas production facility(tank battery and wellhead)to the
west, and agricultural land to the north (across County Road 54). The Union Pacific
Railroad and agricultural land along with oil and gas production facility is located to the
south. The two nearest single-family residences are located approximately 1/4 to the west
of the site. Development Standards and Conditions of Approval will ensure compatibility
with existing surrounding 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 existing site does lie within the three mile referral area of the
Town of Kersey. The Town in their referral dated August 7, 2008 state they had reviewed
the request and find no conflicts with their interests. However, the Town would like the
applicant to work with the County to develop a weed management plan, enter into a long
term road maintenance and improvements plan with the Town if traffic increases and
negatively impacts Kersey roads, restore the property to useful conditions upon
completion of the project, and address exterior lighting should it be a 24-hour operation.
These recommendations are addressed as a condition of approval.
E. Section 23-2-220.A.5--The application complies with Section 23-5 of the Weld County
Code. The existing site is not within a recognized overlay district, including the Geologic
Hazard, Flood Hazard or Airport Overlay District. The existing site is within the County-
wide Road Impact Fee Area and the Capital Expansion Impact Fee Area. 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 proposed lots will be required to adhere to
the fee structure of the Capital Expansion Impact Fee and the stormwater/drainage
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 site is
classified as "irrigated -non prime" per the 1979 Soil Conservation Service Important
Farmlands of Weld County Map. The size of the parcel also does not make it conducive
to agricultural practices.
G. Section 23-2-220.A.7--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 ensure that there are adequate provisions for the protection of
health, safety, and welfare of the inhabitants of the neighborhood and County.
This recommendation is based, in part, upon a review of the application materials submitted by the
applicant, other relevant information regarding the request, and responses from referral entities.
