Section 23-3-40.R of the Weld County Code provides for a Site Specific Development Plan and Use by Special Review Permit for a Use Permitted as a Use by Right, Accessory Use, or Use by Special Review in the Commercial or Industrial Zone Districts (outdoor and indoor storage of RV's and boats, including a dump station, wash-bay, air, water, vacuum, office, lounge, retail store, propane sales, and a 24-hour rental kiosk) in the A(Agricultural) Zone District. c. Section 23-2-230.B.3--The uses which will be permitted will be compatible with the existing surrounding land uses. The surrounding property is predominantly agricultural.

The City of Dacono, in its referral dated March 23, 2007,stated that the proposed use represents a substantial traffic generator 2.5 miles from 1-25, and the location of the abandoned railroad right-of-way would be a logical place to transition to residential, not more industrial.

The Town of Erie and the City and County of Broomfield, in the referrals dated February 8, 2007, and March 1, 2007, indicated they have reviewed the request and find no conflicts with their interests.
