Responding to Commissioner Masden, Mr. Barker stated they have provided adequate notice and are not
required to do anything further. In response to Commissioner Jerke, Mr. Barker stated there is not a formal
agreement; however, this Resolution would grant the Board's consent into perpetuity or until a new fire
code is adopted. Commissioner Jerke commented it may be helpful to have a renewal date to give the
Board the option of abandoning an agreement when enforcement practices of a Fire Protection District
contradict the intent of the Board. Mr. Barker reiterated there are no formal agreement terms, and the
Board can retract its consent at any time upon notification to the appropriate Fire Protection District. No
public testimony was offered concerning this matter. Commissioner Masden moved to consent to the

PLANNING:
CONSIDER MOBILE HOME PERMIT,ZPMH#2343-FAY AND BETTY MAVITY, C/O ROBERT MAVITY:
Wendy Inloes, Department of Planning Services, gave a brief description of the location of the site, and
stated staff recommends denial because the applicant has been unable to provide evidence supporting
the need for full time care. Robert Mavity,applicant,stated this application is no longer necessary because
his mother does not intend to move into the mobile home vacated by his late sister, Jackie Gorman. He
requested an extension to allow him adequate time to sell the existing mobile home, and to save enough
money to find a new home. In response to Chair Vaad, Ms. Inloes stated Mobile Home Zoning
Permit#2201 was originally granted in August 2000 as a temporary use during a medical hardship for the
applicant's sister, Jackie Gorman. She explained during the updating process, it was found that Ms.
Gorman had passed away, so the permit had to be re-justified. Mr. Mavity explained his niece and her
husband are now planning to move into the mobile home vacated by his sister. Ms. Inloes commented that
if the applicant's niece moves in, a permit will still need to be obtained and one of the mobile homes will
need to be removed. In response to Chair Vaad, Ms. Inloes stated the site is currently in violation because
use for a medical hardship has ceased and the mobile home should have been removed within 30 days.
Following discussion, Mr. Mavity indicated once they have a new residence he will either sell his mobile
home or have it hauled away to be scrapped out. Mr. Barker stated if a permit is not approved today, the
site is considered in violation. He recommended the Board refer this matter to the County Attorney's
Office, with a delay in action, similar to the violation process. In response to Commissioner Jerke, Mr.
Mavity stated his mobile home was constructed in 1970 home,and many mobile home parks do not accept
homes constructed before 1976. In response to Mr. Mavity, Mr. Barker stated even if his mobile home is
removed from the site,the remaining mobile home will need to be permitted. In response to Commissioner
Jerke,Mr. Barker clarified the application for Mobile Home Zoning Permit#2343 for a temporary use during
a medical hardship has been withdrawn, therefore, he recommends the matter be forwarded to his office
as a violation, with instruction to delay action. Commissioner Jerke moved to find the property owned by
Fay and Betty Mavity, do Robert Mavity, in violation of the Weld County Code, and to refer the matter to
the County Attorney's Office, with a delay in action for 90 days. Commissioner Masden seconded the
motion, which carried unanimously.
RESOLUTIONS AND ORDINANCES: The resolutions were presented and signed as listed on the consent
agenda. No Ordinances were approved.
Let the minutes reflect that the above and foregoing actions were attested to and respectfully submitted
by the Acting Clerk to the Board.
