PLANNING:
CONSIDER RESUBDIVISION, RS#1115,FOR LOT LINE ADJUSTMENT IN ARROWHEAD SUBDIVISION
-JOHN AND ANTONETTE SCHIESTEL/TRACY C.AND TRACY L. HOGUE: Sheri Lockman, Department
of Planning Services, stated the applicants have applied for a lot line adjustment on lots located within the
Arrowhead Subdivision. She stated the site is located adjacent to Pawnee Lane, and 300 feet east of
Arrowhead Drive, and six referral agencies have reviewed the request. She further stated the access to
the east lot overlaps the neighboring property to the west,and the lot-line adjustment will allow the access
drive to be contained entirely on one property. Ms. Lockman stated staff recommends approval of the lot
line adjustment;however,during an inspection of the property,a semi-trailer was found on the property,and
the semi-trailer must be removed from the property as a Condition of Approval. She stated the applicant
must also submit a Use by Special Review application to permit the business, or remove the business from
the site. Ms. Lockman presented pictures of the site,depicting vehicles on the site with business logos and
advertising on the side. She stated the non-permitted business issues will be addressed through the
Conditions of Approval. In response to Chair Geile, Ms. Lockman stated the Board is only considering a lot
line adjustment. In response to Chair Geile, Ms. Lockman stated the applicants will need to have the
business permitted, and remove the semi-trailer, both of which are required as Conditions of Approval.
Tracy Hogue,applicant, stated he owns the property to the west,and the access drive for the parcel to the
east was placed prior to purchase of his property,and the drive overlaps the boundary line by approximately
14 feet. He stated the lot line adjustment is requested to place the access drive entirely within one parcel.
In response to CommissionerJerke,Mr. Hogue stated only these two properties are affected by the access
drive. In response to Commissioner Long, Ms. Lockman stated the Conditions of Approval require the
applicant to bring the property into compliance, and the applicant has options as to how to permit the
business. Commissioner Long stated the violation is a separate issue from the lot line adjustment,and the
violation should be addressed separately through a violation hearing. In response to Ms. Lockman,
Commissioner Long stated he preferred that the violation be processed separately, since a lot line
adjustment is not subject to conditions,and he believes the applicants are being held to different standards.
Commissioner Jerke stated he concurred with Commissioner Long,and stated the lot line adjustment only
affects the real estate,and not the potential use. He stated the applicant would need to reappear before the
Board at a Violation Hearing, or possibly a Use by Special Review hearing. Mr. Hogue stated he would like

to finish the fence surrounding his property and establish the property line, and separating the violation
would allow him to move forward with the construction of the fence. Ms. Lockman suggested removing
Conditions of Approval#1.C and 1.D,and staff will proceed with the violation process. The Board concurred
with Ms. Lockman's recommendation. Commissioner Long moved to approve RS#1115,with the deletion
of Conditions of Approval #1.C and 1.D. Seconded by Commissioner Masden, the motion carried
unanimously. Ms. Lockman stated the hearing was her last,since she has terminated her employment with
the County. In response to Chair Geile, Ms. Lockman stated it was a hard decision; however, she has
decided to become a stay-at-home mother again, and her husband will go back to work. Chair Geile
expressed his appreciation to Ms. Lockman for her professionalism. The Board concurred with Chair Geile.
CONSIDER SECOND RESUBDIVISION,2NDRS#1073, FOR VACATION OF PORTION OF CERTAIN
ROADS,STREETS,OR ALLEYS(DEERE ROAD)WITHIN PETERSBURG MINOR SUBDIVISION-TAMMI
NORCUTT AND RICKY LAURIDSEN: Jacqueline Hatch, Department of Planning Services, stated the
applicants have applied for vacation of the northern portion of Deere Road, within the Petersburg Minor
Subdivision,which is located north of Weld County Road 10,and west of Weld County Road 7. She stated
eleven referrals agencies reviewed the proposal; however, no referrals were received from the City of
Boulder,County of Broomfield, and the Sheriffs Office. She stated staff has determined that the applicant
has met the criteria listed in Section 24-5-20, of the Weld County Code. Ms. Hatch stated a resubdivision
was completed in February,2005,for the reconfiguration of Lots 1 and 2,and the applicants currently own
both lots. She stated the applicants are requesting that the cul-de-sac be removed from the northern
portion of the road, and all three property owners within the subdivision have no objections. She further
stated adequate access for all three lots will remain, and staff recommends approval. Ricky Lauridsen,
applicant,stated he would like to build a new house on the property;however,there is not enough room to
place a house and leach field with the required setbacks. He stated the vacation of the road will allow
enough space to place both the house and the leach field. Commissioner Vaad moved to approve said
second resubdivision. Seconded by Commissioner Masden, the motion carried unanimously.
