COLORADO The Weld County Public Works Department has reviewed this proposal; this project falls primarily under the purview of the Use by Special Review Standards, Weld County Code, Chapter 23, Article II, Division 4, Section 23. Our comments and requirements are as follows: COMMENTS: The Department of Planning Services is not indicating that this is a major facility of a public utility; therefore, the applicant shall complete the full hearing process before the Planning Commission and the Board of County Commissioner for final determination. WCR 16 and WCR 17 are designated on the Weld County Road Classification Plan (FHU) as local gravel roads, which require a 60-foot right-of-way at full build out. Both roads presently have a 60-foot right-of-way. These roads are maintained by Weld County. Pursuant to the definition of SETBACK in the Weld County ,ode, Chapter 23, Article III, Section 23-3-50, the required setback is measured from the future right-of-way line. REQUIREMENTS: Access: The applicant is indicating on the plat drawing that the "proposed" tower site accesses from WCR 16 and the "future" tower site accesses from WCR 17. Utilize these existing access points as they are shown on the plat drawing. The access width required for emergency equipment (fire department/emergency response) is a minimum of 20 feet. The applicant needs to verify with the local emergency responder that the existing accesses and road to the facility meets their minimum requirement. Storm Water Drainage: The historical flow patterns and run-off amounts will be maintained on site in such a manner that it will reasonably preserve the natural character of the area and prevent property damage of the type generally attributed to run-off rate and velocity increases, diversions, concentration and/or unplanned ponding of storm run-off. The applicant must take into consideration storm water capture/quantity and provide accordingly for best management practices. pc: AmUSR -1508 M:\PLANNING-DEVELOPMENT REVIEW\USR-Use by Special Review\AmUSR-1508.DOC EXHIBIT 2006-3036 Weld County Planning Department GREELEY OFFICE (O MEMORANDUM SEP 0 6 Z006 TO: CHRIS GATHMAN, PLANNING SERVICES RECEIVED ugFROM: CHARLOTTE DAVIS, ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH e/ C.
