RE: Case Number RS-1136
Dear Hannah,
The Colorado Division of Wildlife(CDOW)has reviewed the Resubdivision for the creation of an additional lot for
residential purposes. District Wildlife Manager Troy Florian made a site visit to the parcel. In this letter you will find
our comments concerning the proposal.
The site is located north of and adjacent to WCR 86 and'A mile west of WCR 19. The parcel appears to be a mixture
of short to mid grass pasture ground.
If the parcel is divided for residential purposes, the CDOW recommends that:
• Ground-breaking construction occur between August 15 and April 1 to prevent the destruction of nesting
wildlife.
• Noxious weed and re-vegetation management plans are developed and implemented in areas where there will
be ground disturbance due to construction activities.
• Any fences built are recommended to be three or four strand fencing with a bottom strand height of 17 inches
and a maximum top strand height of 42 inches, along with installation of double stays between posts.
• Leash covenants are used in the development.
• Future homeowners are made aware of traditional land uses that may impact them.
• Future homeowners are made aware of nuisance wildlife in the area.
Ground-breaking Construction. The short/mid grass prairie is a desirable nesting habitat and contains a large
number of different species of small birds. Most species of small birds are primarily ground nesting birds, although
some species nest in trees or bushes. Some of these species are permanent residents while others are migrants or
summer(breeding)residents. Many of these small birds are categorized as neo-tropical. Neo-tropical species are
experiencing drastic population declines and the CDOW is concerned about any activities that could negatively impact
them. All of the ground-nesting birds in this area could be subject to habitat loss, displacement and disturbance from
future construction or development. It is possible that human activities around nest sites during critical nesting
periods can have significant negative impacts. In regards to ground-nesting birds in the area, it is recommended that
any ground breaking construction that takes place on the proposed area occurs before April 1 and after August 15 to
minimize any impacts that human activity may have on these ground nesting birds. USFWS staff recommends this as
well as a way of avoiding violation of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act.

Weed Management. Noxious weeds reduce property value and wildlife habitat. With new construction taking place
and machinery being transported from one site to another, it is important to help prevent the spread of noxious weeds.
Equipment should be cleaned periodically to remove weed seeds even if no weeds are recognized. It is recommended
that noxious weeds are actively eradicated. A working weed management and disturbed area reclamation plan should
be developed and implemented throughout construction and until all disturbed areas are properly re-vegetated to
prevent erosion and invasions by weeds. The applicant may want to contact the Weld County Weed Inspector to
facilitate development of reclamation and weed management plans for the development.
Fencing. CDOW is concerned for the safety of the wildlife in the area if fences are erected,as some types of fencing
can be dangerous and even fatal to wildlife. Therefore, we recommend that if any fencing is to be used within or
around development sites, either during or after the project, it should be the type that would allow the free passage of
wildlife.Fencing plans should avoid the use of woven wire type fences that will trap or prevent movement of wildlife.
We prefers the use of three or four strand fencing with a bottom strand height of 17 inches and a maximum top
strand height of 42 inches, along with installation of double stays between posts.
Leash Covenants. The future residential development should include covenants that prevent domestic dogs and cats
from running at large. Domestic dogs and cats roaming the open space in this area and adjacent property would have
a definite adverse impact on wildlife in the area. CDOW feels strongly that this wildlife corridor encompassing the
adjacent upland should be protected from domestic pets of local residents inclined to walk dogs in this natural area.
Traditional Land Uses. As this area develops, it is important to maintain the legacy of traditional agricultural land
uses. Hunting is one such activity that provides recreation and income to landowners and businesses along the 1-25
corridor. Geese, ducks, pheasants and doves are a few of the wildlife species that are hunted in this area. In fact
surveys indicate that Weld and Larimer Counties are among the most important in Colorado in the popularity of small
game and waterfowl hunting activities. People travel from all over the United States to hunt waterfowl along the I-25
corridor. Hunting is not only a recreational activity and economic asset,but also an important management tool used
by the Colorado Division of Wildlife to manage wildlife populations. Hunting is used as the primary tool to balance
wildlife populations with available habitat. With increasing rural development, it is advisable that new residents be
informed of traditional land uses,such as hunting, occurring on adjacent land that may impact them.
Living with Wildlife. It is recommended that future homeowners aware made aware of nuisance animals that are
found in rural areas. Coyotes,raccoons, skunks, foxes and prairie dogs can all potentially present problems for
landowners. Homeowners should be made aware of the potential problems that coyotes and skunks can cause with
domestic dogs and cats. The new homeowners should be made aware that it is their responsibility to prevent and
handle any problems that may arise. The CDOW has brochures available for homeowners that talk about living with
wildlife and will also be happy to give suggestions on how to prevent any potential problems.
On behalf of the Colorado Division of Wildlife,I would like to thank you for the opportunity to review and comment
on this proposal. If you or the applicant has any further questions,please feel free to call Troy Florian at(970)443-
1993.

Weld County RS-1136 Compliance 5/5/07
The Colorado Division of Wildlife (CDOW) has a list of recommendations that are
addressed by the applicants for RS-1136.
"Ground breaking construction occur between August 15 and April 1 to prevent the
destruction of nesting wildlife."
Jason S. Slater had a telephone conversation with David Clarkson, Area Wildlife
Manager for the CDOW regarding this item. Mr. Slater indicated to Mr. Clarkson that
due to numerous factors including weather issues, financial considerations, etc., that the
single family residence ground breaking would occur prior to August 15, 2007. Mr.
Clarkson in turn suggested a comprehensive inspection of the homesite be performed to
locate any possible nesting areas that could be affected. The location of the house is on a
ridge which lacks any trees, bushes, etc.. A visual inspection performed by Mr. Slater of
the future homesite and surrounding area did not indicate any nesting areas of birds or
other wildlife.
The following five items have been acknowledged and will be adhered to as necessary:
"Noxious weed and re-vegetation management plans are developed and implemented in
areas where there will be ground disturbance due to construction activities."
"Any fences built are recommended to be three or four strand fencing with a bottom
strand height of 17 inches and a maximum top strand height of 42 inches, along with
installation of double stays between posts."
"Leash covenants are used in the development."
"Future homeowners are made aware of traditional land uses that may impact them."
"Future homeowners are made aware of nuisance wildlife in the area."

RE: Black Hollow Acres Zone Change/Final Plat CZ-1135
Dear Ms.Hippely:
The above referenced Change of Zone and Final Plat are proposed for two lots on
approximately 29 acres located on north of and adjacent to Weld County Road 86 and west of Weld
County Road 19.
Although student and land impacts associated with this project appear minimal, already
approved residential development within the area of the project contributes to a substantial cumulative
impact upon Weld County School District Re-4. In addition, the effect upon school site planning is
significant because of the difficulty in acquiring school sites in the appropriate locations and sizes to
serve such dispersed development. Given the rapid gowth of other areas within the School District,
Weld Re-4 remains concerned with its financial ability to provide for continuing growth within. the
area of the project. This and related concerns are discussed in detail below.
Site Issues
Windsor School District understands that the project proposes to rezone the property from
Agricultural to Estate use, creating two single-family residential units. At this time, land dedication is
not feasible to offset the impact of growth upon the School.District. Therefore, District Re-4 requests
cash-in-lieu of land for both lots at the current market value of land within the area (see
recommendations). Should the land use of either lot change, the District requests the opportunity to
respond to any proposed land use changes. Given the substantial amount of residential development
opportunity within District, it is strongly recommended that the County, Towns and the School
District master plan the cumulative effects of growth upon existing and future school sites.

Facility and Fiscal Capacity Issues
Grandview Elementary School, Windsor Middle School and Windsor High School currently
serve this area. Capacities and recent enrollments of these schools are:
Seats
Student Enrollment Available
School (Grades) Capacity (09/1/06) IShort)
Grandview Elem. School(K-5) 400 361 39
Windsor Middle School(6-8) 700 813 (113)
Windsor High School(9-12) 1,240 976 264
Capacities of the schools that will serve this proposed development are either surpassing or
quickly approaching their design limit. Accelerated residential growth and strong growth
potential heighten the School District's concern regarding its ability to provide adequate
educational opportunities. Approved development far exceeds the District's current capacity to
fund educational facilities. Consequently, approval of this project would exacerbate the
expected seat (capacity) shortages.
As of July 1, 2006, the District's total bonding capacity approximated $56.2 million at 20
percent of assessed valuation per state statute. Debt outstanding from the previous bond election
is $34.2 million leaving $22 million available for future facility needs throughout the District.
Given residential development and student potential from already approved but not completed
projects, this amount is sorely deficient to provide the necessary school facilities. If recent rates
of growth are maintained, several schools at all levels will be required to serve the student
population. For example, the District expects that within the next five to ten years, a new high
school will likely be required. The costs associated with building a new high school will, by
itself, more than consume the remaining debt capacity, compromising the District's ability to
provide for other areas of need, especially at the middle school level. Inadequate bonding
capacity is the direct result of residential growth occurring at a pace that well exceeds the
District's statutorily limited ability to fund school construction.
Recommendations
The School District remains very concerned about the recent trend toward accelerated
residential activity and the ensuing enrollment that will follow as well as the District's physical and
financial abilities to serve that growth. Because land dedication is not feasible from a development of
this size, the District requests that the developer agree to pay cash in lieu of land. Recent reviews of
data regarding land sales suggest that the cash-in-lieu amount should increase from $1,200 to $2,240
per single-family detached unit(see attached calculations). Therefore, it is requested that the County
apply this valuation for all property within the School District.
Assuming payment of cash-in-lieu of land at the updated value of$2,240 per unit, the School
District does not object to approval of this Recorded Exemption. In addition, the School District
requests to be notified of any proposed land use changes associated with either lot. Cooperation of all

parties is necessary in offsetting the adverse fiscal impacts of rapid residential growth upon the School
District's statutorily limited resources.
Your continuing cooperation is sincerely appreciated, as is the opportunity to comment
upon issues of interest to the County, th.e School District and our mutual constituents. Should.
you have questions or desire further information, please contact me at your convenience.

Re: Slater Re-subdivision
Case No. RS-1136
Sec. 33, T8N, R67W, 6th P.M
Water Division 1, Water District 1
Dear Ms. Hippely:
We have reviewed the above referenced proposal to re-subdivide a 29.41-acre parcel
described as Lot 12, Black Hollow Acres subdivision, into two single family residential lots of ten
and 19.41 acres. Water for the existing residence, which will be located on proposed lot 1, is to
be provided from an existing well constructed under permit no. 194176. The North Weld County
Water District is proposed to provide water to proposed lot 2. A Water Supply Information
Summary Form was not included in the referral material.
According to our records well permit no. 194176 was issued April 15, 1996 to construct
the only well on a residential site of 29.14 acres described as Lot 12, Black Hollow Acres
Subdivision, Weld County. The well was constructed on July 17, 1996 to a depth of 380 feet.
The use of ground water from this well is limited to ordinary household purposes inside one
single family dwelling and the ground water shall not be used for irrigation or other purpose.
The applicant's proposal to use this well for the residential lot appears to be within the
provisions of the well permit. In addition, according the Well Completion Report submitted in
1996, after completion, the yield of this well after a one hour test was reported as 11 gpm. If
this well continues to have a similar production rate the water supply should be physically
adequate.
The proposed water source for lot 2 is identified as the North Weld County Water District
("District") and a letter of commitment for service from the District was provided. Based on
current information on file in this office, the District will typically furnish 70% of an acre-foot
(228,000 gallons) of water per tap per annual water year if the allotment for the Colorado-Big
Thompson (CBT) project water, as determined by the Northern Colorado Water Conservancy
District, is 50% or greater. The District will restrict the delivery as necessary when the CBT
allotment is less than 50%. Based upon information provided to this office by the District, the
District currently has an adequate uncommitted water supply to provide the water associated
with this project.

Therefore, pursuant to Sections 30-28-136(1)(h)(I) and (II), C.R.S., the State Engineer's
office offers the opinion that, with the District as the water supplier of lot 2, the proposed water
supply will not cause material injury to existing water rights, and the supply is expected to be
adequate. We recommend that the County obtain a signed copy of the water service
agreement from the District prior to the final approval of the subdivision. In addition, in regards
to the lot served by the well, please note that the long term adequacy of any ground water
source may be subject to fluctuation due to hydrological and climatic trends.
If you have any question in this matter please contact Megan Sullivan of this office.
Sincerely,
