The applicant has complied with all the application requirements listed in Section 27-5-30 of the Weld County Code. 2. The request is in conformance with Section 27-6-120.D as follows: a. Section 27-6-120.D.5.a -- The proposal is consistent with any Intergovernmental Agreement in effect influencing the PUD and Chapter 19 (Coordinated Planning Agreements), Chapter 22 (Comprehensive Plan), Chapter 23(Zoning), Chapter 24(Subdivision), and Chapter 26(Mixed Use Development) of the Weld County Code. The proposed site is not influenced by an Intergovernmental Agreement, nor is it located within an urban growth boundary. The proposal is consistent with the aforementioned documents as follows: 2007-2612 PL1920 o() : PL, Per, ( ) 4.-PPG-i nZ-7° /O-O=7-O7 CHANGE OF ZONE, PZ #1129, FROM A TO PUD - SERBOUSEK FAMILY, LLC PAGE 2 1) Section 22-3-50.6.1 (P.Goal 2) states, "Require adequate facilities and services to assure the health, safety, and general welfare of the present and future residents of the County." The applicant has submitted a draft water service agreement with the North Weld County Water District to service the proposed PUD with potable water. A finalized water agreement will be required at the final plan stage. Individual Sewage Disposal Systems will handle the effluent flow. b. Section 27-6-120.D.5.b -- The uses which will be allowed in the proposed PUD will conform with the Performance Standards of the PUD Zone District contained in Chapter 27, Article II, of the Weld County Code. 1) Section 27-2-40, Bulk requirements - The applicant has chosen to adhere to the bulk requirements of the E (Estate) Zone District for the eight(8) residential lots, with the exception that no animal units, as defined in Section 23-2-90 of the Weld County Code, will be allowed. 2) Section 27-6-80.6.7 states, "All urban scale development PUDs containing a residential element shall provide for a fifteen-percent common open space allocation, unless otherwise stated in Chapter 26 of the Weld Code." Approximately 20.2 percent of the site is designated for common open space. 3) Section 27-6-90, Signage - The application indicates that the proposed PUD monument sign will adhere to the sign standards outlined in the Weld County Code. Subdivision signs must adhere to the size standards of signs for public and quasi-public uses,which is 32 square feet, per Section 23-4-80 of the Weld County Code. c. Section 27-6-120.D.5.c -- The uses which will be permitted will be compatible with the existing or 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 or Master Plans of affected municipalities. This site is located within the three-mile referral area of the Towns of Windsor and Severance. The proposed PUD is located west of and adjacent to the incorporated limits of the Town of Windsor, but is not located within the Urban Growth Boundary for the Town of Windsor. The Town of Windsor, in the referral received July 10, 2007, indicated the site is within Windsor's Growth Management Area and within the boundaries of the East Side Sanitary Interceptor Plan (ESSIP). The Town of Windsor Planning Commission recommends denial of this application due to inconsistency with the Town of Windsor's land use map and East Side Sanitary Interceptor Plan, and further recommends that the applicant be referred to the Town of Windsor for annexation and development. Town of Windsor sewer is presently located approximately 2007-2612 PL1920 CHANGE OF ZONE, PZ #1129, FROM A TO PUD - SERBOUSEK FAMILY, LLC PAGE 3 2.5 miles southeast of the subject site. The Town of Windsor indicated that several annexations have recently been approved that could possibly extend sewer service west of State Highway 257 and further to the north. However, the town cannot commit to specific timeframes or dates when sewer will be available. Because this site is not located within the Urban Growth Boundary for the Town of Windsor,the Urban Growth policies in regards to annexation and compatibility with the adjacent municipality's comprehensive plan, as stated in Section 22-2-110.C of the Weld County Code, do not apply. No referral response was received from the Town of Severance. d. Section 27-6-120.D.5.d -- The PUD Zone District shall be serviced by an adequate water supply and sewage disposal system in compliance with the Performance Standards in Chapter 27, Article II, of the Weld County Code. The applicant has submitted a draft Water Service Agreement with the North Weld County Water District. A finalized water agreement will be required at the final plan stage. The Division of Water Resources, in the referral received June 18,2007, indicated the North Weld County Water District has an adequate uncommitted water supply to provide water for this project. The proposed development will be serviced by Individual Sewage Disposal Systems. e. Section 27-6-120.D.5.e--Street or highway facilities providing access to the property are adequate in functional classification, width, and structural capacity to meet the traffic requirements of the uses of the proposed PUD Zone District. The proposed PUD will access off of County Road 74. The Department of Public Works indicates, in the referral received July 19, 2007, that County Road 74 is a strategic arterial roadway connecting Fort Collins, Timnath, and Severance. Segments of this road to the east and west of the proposed PUD have been widened to three, and some cases four, lanes with speed limits in excess of 45 miles per hour. County Road 74, adjacent to the proposed Homestead PUD, will eventually be four lanes. The proposed traffic resulting from this development and the proposed access to the Homestead PUD development creates a sight distance/road safety problem on County Road 74 to the west of the proposed access. The applicant is requesting to address this site condition with road plans that mitigate the hazard for eastbound travelers on County Road 74 attempting to turn into the proposed Homestead PUD development. In particular, The Department of Public Works requests the applicant provide preliminary designs for a developer-constructed County Road 74 turn lane for east-bound traffic. f. Section 27-6-120.D.5.f--The applicant is required to enter into an Off-Site Road Improvements Agreement and post adequate collateral for improvements to County Road 74. An On-Site Improvements Agreement is required for improvements to the internal access. Draft On-Site and Off- Site Improvements Agreements will be required to be submitted with the Final Plan application. 2007-2612 PL1920 CHANGE OF ZONE, PZ#1129, FROM A TO PUD - SERBOUSEK FAMILY, LLC PAGE 4 g. Section 27-6-120.D.5.g -- There has been compliance with the applicable requirements contained in Chapter 23 of the Weld County Code regarding overlay districts, commercial mineral deposits, and soil conditions on the subject site. The site is not located within any overlay district. Effective January 1, 2003, building permits issued on the proposed lots will be required to adhere to the fee structure of the County-Wide Road Impact Fee Program. Effective August 1, 2005, building permits issued on the subject site will be required to adhere to the fee structure of the Capital Expansion Impact Fee and the Stormwater/Drainage Impact Fee Programs. h. Section 27-6-120.D.5.h -- Consistency exists between the proposed Zone District uses and the submitted Specific Development Guide. The submitted Specific Development Guide accurately reflects the Performance Standards and allowed uses described in the proposed Zone District, as described previously. The Department of Public Works is requiring the widening of County Road 74, which will require relocation of the detention pond and structures possibly partially encroaching into the boundaries of the proposed lots. Also, the applicant has not clarified the purpose of the internal road connection to the north, and a finalized water agreement has not been submitted for this development. For these reasons, this Change of Zone will be conceptually approved and will be heard by the Board of County Commissioners at the Final Plan stage. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of County Commissioners of Weld County, Colorado, that the application of Serbousek Family, LLC, for Change of Zone, PZ#1129, from the A (Agricultural) Zone District to the PUD (Planned Unit Development) Zone District for eight (8) residential lots with E (Estate) Zone uses, along with 7.071 acres of open space, on the above referenced parcel of land be, and hereby is, granted subject to the following conditions: 1.
