Request: A Site Specific Development Plan and Special Review Permit for an Agricultural
Service Establishment primarily engaged in performing agricultural, animal
husbandry, or horticultural services on a fee or contract basis including Livestock
Confinement Operations (a calf raising operating for up to 5,000 head) in the A

THE DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING SERVICES' STAFF RECOMMENDS THAT THIS REQUEST BE
DENIED 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 not 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 ordinances in effect. Section 22-2-60 A.Policy 1.3 states
"Allow commercial and industrial uses, which are directly related to, or dependent upon
agriculture, to locate within the A(Agricultural)Zone District when the impact to
surrounding properties is minimal, and where adequate services are currently available
and reasonably obtainable. Agricultural businesses and industries will be encouraged to
locate in areas that minimize the removal of agricultural land from production." The
application states that two domestic wells are located on the property with the ability for a
third domestic well to be drilled for backup and surplus water. The Office of the State
Engineer—Division of Water Resources, in their referral received December 6, 2006
USR-1590-Contreras Farms,Inc. 2
states: "A livestock confinement operation such as this proposed calf-raising operation is
not considered an exempt use and therefore the use of these wells in such an operation
would be a violation of the conditions of approval of these wells permits. The use of
these wells to serve a livestock confinement operation would withdraw ground water
hydraulically connected to an over-appropriated stream system and will cause material
injury to other water rights. As such, an augmentation plan would be required to offset
depletions caused by the pumping of all wells utilized in the calf raising operation. No
augmentation plan has been submitted nor approved by the state for these uses.
Therefore there is no evidence that adequate services (water) are currently available and
reasonably obtainable.
b. 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. An
adequate water supply is not presently available for this use.
Should this be recommended for approval by the Planning Commission, the Department of Planning
Services recommends the following conditions and development standards:
1. Prior to recording the plat:
