(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.
D. Section 23-2-230.6.4 -- 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.
E. Section 23-2-230.B.5 --The site does not lie within any Overlay Districts.

Public Health and Environment, Water Quality Control Division.
B. Section 23-2-400.B. -- The facility will not have an undue adverse effect on existing
and future development of the surrounding area as set forth in applicable Master
Plans. The subject property lies within the three-mile referral area of the City of
Greeley and the Town of Kersey. The City of Greeley in their referral dated January
2, 2007 stated that they had no conflicts with the request. No response has been
received from the Town of Kersey.
C. Section 23-2-400.C. --The design of the proposed facility mitigates negative impacts
on the surrounding area to the greatest extent feasible. The proposed facility will be
compatible with surrounding land uses. To the West and South are Confined Animal
Feeding Operations, permitted for Cervi Enterprises Inc., via land use case number
REC-32 and SUP-170 and North Front Range Feedlots, case number SUP-163 and
to the East and North Agricultural lands; the proposed Conditions of Approval and
Development Standards will minimize negative impacts on the surrounding area.
D. Section 23-2-400.D.--The site shall be maintained in such a manner so as to control
soil erosion,dust,and the growth of noxious weeds.The Conditions of Approval and
Development Standards will ensure that there is no fugitive dust or erosion and will
ensure the control of noxious weeds.
E. Section 23-2-400.E. -- The applicant has agreed to implement any reasonable
measures deemed necessary by the Planning Commission to ensure that the health,
safety,and welfare of the inhabitants of Weld County will be protected and to mitigate
or minimize any potential adverse impacts from the proposed facility.
F. Section 23-2-400.F. -- All reasonable steps have been taken by the applicant to
minimize negative impacts on agricultural uses and lands. As previously stated, this
existing facility is being upgraded. Wastewater is received from the Swift Company
Beef Plant, treated, and discharged into Lone Tree Creek in accordance with the
Discharge Permit issued by the State of Colorado. The property has been utilized
as a treatment facility for 34 years, and the area of the footprint of the facility is not
being expanded. The facility utilizes water from North Weld County Water District
with no irrigation water utilized in the plant operation. The facility will be manned with
up to three employees twelve hours each day. The treatment plant operates on a 24
hour a day, 7 day a week schedule. It is important to state that the facility was
originally constructed by the City of Greeley for their sanitation needs and then sold
to Swift & Company. The Conditions of Approval and Development Standards
minimize negative impacts on the existing agricultural uses and lands of the area.
G. Section 23-2-400.G. -- All reasonable alternatives to the proposal have been
adequately assessed.The proposed action is consistent with the best interests of the
people of Weld County and represents a balanced use of resources in the affected
area. The upgraded facility will continue to service the Swift Beef Plant in Greeley.
H. Section 23-2-400.H.--This application will create limited,if any,demand for additional
government services.
Section 23-2-400.1. --The Conditions of Approval and Development Standards will
ensure that the operation of the facility will meet Colorado Department of Health and
Weld County air quality standards.
J. Section 23-2-400.J. —Adequate electric, gas, telephone, water, sewage, and other
utilities exist to service the site.
K. Section 23-2-400.K. -- The nature and location or expansion of the facility will not
unreasonably interfere with any significant wildlife habitat and will not unreasonably
Resolution USR-1594
Swift Beef Company
Page 3
affect any endangered wildlife species, unique natural resource, historic landmark
or archaeological sites within the affected area. There will be no significant impact
on wildlife habitat. The application materials state that migratory birds currently utilize
the property, including water fowl, coastal birds and bald eagles. The Division of
Wildlife did not return a referral indicating a conflict with their interests.
L. Section 23-2-400.L. -- The proposed use will not significantly impact drainage of
residential property,crop land or other land. The Department of Public Works in their
referral dated December 28, 2007 states "The development lies in a Special Flood
Hazard Area defined by the Federal Emergency Management Administration(FEMA)
on their Flood Insurance Rating Map (FIRM)."
The Special Flood Hazard areas of the County are subject to periodic inundation
which results in health and safety hazards, loss of life and property, disruption of
commerce and governmental services, extraordinary public expenditures for flood
protection and relief,and impairment of the tax base all of which adversely effect the
public life, safety and general welfare of the residents of Weld County. These floods
are caused by the cumulative effects of obstructions in flood hazard areas which
increase flood heights and velocities and damage uses in other areas. Uses that are
inadequately elevated,floodproofed,or otherwise protected from flood damage also
contribute to flood damage and losses.
FEMA regulations (44 CFR Section 60) require that the local communities manage
floodplain development in order to participate in the National Flood Insurance
Program (NFIP).
Application for a Weld County FHDP does not guarantee that a building permit will be
issued. Some areas are unsafe for building.
The FHDP documentation must include certification by the applicant's registered
professional engineer that the proposed development will be reasonably safe from
flood damage and that the proposed development, including structures, roads, and
fill,will not impede flood flows.
The Department of Public Works will not be requiring a FHDP for USR-1594 at this
time as stated in an electronic mail dated January 26, 2007. The application states
that no new structures will be needed. Public Works put the generic FHDP
comments and information in the memorandum dated December 28, 2006 in the
event any new building may occur to have the treatment plant come into
compliance. If any new structures will be needed for this compliance to be met,
then the applicant will be required to follow the FHDP process.
M. Section 23-2-400.M—The proposed use has no associated housing requirements.
N. Section 23-2-400.N—The proposed site does not lie within a Municipality IGA
boundary.
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.
The Weld County Planning Commission recommendation for approval is conditional upon the following:
1. Prior to recording the plat:
