As stated in previous letters,the projected student impact upon the Johnstown-Milliken School district appears to be minimal as presented at this time. Currently our schools are above or nearing capacity, especially at the elementary levels. Our facilities plan indicates that we will have the need to build an additional elementary school with the next year and make renovations to the middle and high schools within the next two to three years. As of this date the Towns of Johnstown, Milliken and Berthoud have formally passed a resolution and ordinance describing the land dedication or cash in lieu of land dedication for education. At present,the cash in lieu of land dedication fee is$750. This fee is paid at the time of the issuance of a building permit and is paid directly to the school district. As this exemption directly effects the school district adversely, I would request that the applicant voluntarily contribute the same fee as all other homebuilders in our communities have done since the inception of the local IGAs. As we do not make individual student stops in a development for transportation purposes, a common pick- up/drop-off point should be provided with a bus shelter. Sincerely, J. E. Pendar Supe ' tendent MEMORANDUM Weld County P!aalinc Department GREELL JUL 12 2002 To: Sheri Lockman n Zr'From: KenPoncelow RELA Vat Date: July 12, 2002 Subject: PZ-622 The sheriff's office recommends the following improvements for this housing sub-division: 1. The sheriffs office requests that builders and developers designate an area by the entrance of the sub-division in which to place a shelter for school children awaiting the school bus. This area should also include a pull off for the school bus which enables it to safely load and unload children out of the roadway. 2. Either a mail distribution within the sub-division or a central drop off location within the sub-division should be developed so that residents do not have to cross a county roadway to obtain their mail. 3. The names of all streets within the sub-division should be presented to the sheriff's office for approval. This will eliminate duplication of street names within the county. 4. A permanent sign should be placed at the entrances to the sub-division detailing the name of the sub-division, address, and a graphical presentation of the roadways within the subdivision. There should be a plan developed to maintain this sign. 5. If the roadways within this sub-division are not maintained or adopted by the county, individuals purchasing property in this sub-division should be notified that the sheriff's office will have limited traffic enforcement powers. 6. A plan should be developed to maintain roadways within the sub-division especially during inclement weather conditions for emergency vehicles. 7. The sheriffs office is very supportive of homeowner funded homeowners associations. These associations provide a contact for the sheriffs office and a means for maintaining common areas. 8. There is a oil or gas well within this sub-division. This needs to be fenced off in order to mitigate the potential for tampering. These facilities are known to create an attractive nuisance for young people. Tampering not only creates a significant danger to safety but also of environmental damage with extensive mitigation and clean-up costs. The Sheriff's Office lacks the ability to absorb any additional service demand without the resources recommended in the multi-year plan provided to the Board of County Commissioners or as indicated by growth not considered at the time the plan was developed. I have no other comments on this proposal. r l� Pc) ` C cc' ° SOH": Weld County Referral ' July 8, 2002 C.

An Improvements Agreement for Private Road Maintenance was not received in the referral packet. Per the application materials, the applicant is proposing nine one acre residential lots and approximately 9.9 acres of common open space to maintained by the Home Owners Association. On-site landscape treatment consists of a ten deciduous trees, and 31 evergreen tree with no common, botanical or cultivar species noted. This plant material is located parallel to the proposed monument signs, near the tank battery complex and parallel to the Great Western Railroad right-of-way. The application drawing package did not delineate the monument sign as described in the application materials. The applicant is proposing to plant several evergreen tree species south of the tank battery and gas well complex area. Typically winter storms come from the northwest, although upslope storms are also a likelihood. Staff is concerned that snow throw may be an issue, especially after a windy snow laden storm. Future applications shall address the issue of snow in relation to this area, and what efforts will be in place to mitigate this issue. Future submittals shall provide a detailed Landscape Plan for the entry, including the design of the monument sign for the proposed development. Per the application materials, the open space area will be planted in native and/or drought tolerant grasses. Future correspondence shall identify the species of grass seed mix and whether the mix is to be drilled or broadcast for installation. Further, the applicant has not addressed the landscape treatment for areas within the drainage swale. The applicant did identify the proposed erosion control devices that will be placed within and adjacent to this area. The Department of Planning Services has determined this measure to be adequate, however, the Department of Public Works shall review the final drainage report to ascertain adequacy. If plant material is proposed, please identify the species and how this plant material will be installed. Staff has concerns with the selection of the native grasses and the potential for noxious weeds to gain a foothold and establish themselves within the open space areas. Future correspondence shall identify the proposed management plan for the open space, particularly given the close proximity of the agricultural production lands to the north and southeast. n Per the application materials, the open space area, including the entry area plant materials will be irrigated utilizing a non-potable water source, from either an installed watering system or by e^ truck. Future correspondence shall identify the source of this water and the timing of delivery. The School District did not appear to respond to their requirements for this proposal. Future applications shall address the issue of bus pull-off and pick-up points, specific to the relationship of the point of ingress/egress of the PUD. This shall be graphically delineated on the drawings. Further, the location and relationship to the bus pull-off, if any, has not been delineated on the submitted drawings. The Change of Zone Plat shall reflect these additions to the development. The internal road for this PUD development shall be paved and meet the Code requirements of Chapters 24 and 27. Per Section 24-2-20 all PUD developments will be served by an internally paved road system according to County standards. The cross-section delineated in the drawing package has identified two 12-foot paved lanes and two 4-foot gravel shoulders adjacent to borrow ditches placed on each side of the road. The Department of Public Works shall address this issue. A general note regarding the graphic delineation of the of the swale relative to the residential driveways. The driveways should be delineated to cross the swale, and a culvert if required shall be delineated on the plans. The application materials states that the Town of Johnson Fire Department is requesting a secondary emergency access. However, there is no evidence from the Ditch Company of permission to utilize their thirty foot ingress and egress easement. Future applications shall address the issue. Further, the type of emergency access road surface is not identified. Staff suggests that the applicant research the use of Grasscrete or equivalent for this access drive. Grasscrete or similar is a non-invasive material that permits plant material to be planted within the openings thus creating the illusion of continuous open space not impacted by a hard surface drive. Finally, there is no indication that the access for the ditch company and or the emergency access will be gated or remain open. Future applications shall address the issue. The application materials indicate that the flowline of the drainage swale runs parallel to the Great Western Railroad right-of-way. The Landscape Plat has delineated evergreen trees to be planted in this location. Typically evergreen species of any type do not grow well in wet conditions. Future applications shall address the issue of the location of the trees in relationship to the drainage swale. The engineered site grading drawings prepared by Messner Engineers, Inc., delineates water flowing to the southeast towards the drainage swale parallel to the Great Western Railroad right-of-way. The swales are protected by the Straw Bale Dike Channel detail to control erosion and unregulated runoff for the property. The swale provides for overland flow into the proposed water quality control pond located in the southeast corner of the property. The applicant has proposed an outlet structure placed in the pond with a fifty (50) foot long by 18" diameter CMP storm drain with flared end to release the water at a historic rate. The applicant is proposing to release this water on the right-of-way of the Great Western Railroad. Future applications shall address the issue of the Great Western Railroad permitting this activity. A signed agreement with the Railroad shall be submitted prior to scheduling the Change of Zone hearing before the Board of County Commissioners. T P n Summary The applicant shall provide additional information pertaining to the selection of plant material near the tank battery complex and methods of mitigation for snow. The applicant shall provide additional information pertaining to the emergency access as required by the Fire Department. The applicant shall provide additional information pertaining to plant material mix of the proposed native grasses, the method of installation and the management practices to be implemented such that noxious weeds are not prevalent within this development. The applicant shall provide additional information pertaining to the location of the evergreen plants adjacent to the railroad in relationship to the drainage swale. The applicant shall provide additional information pertaining to the historic release of water from the proposed water quality pond onto the Railroads property or right-of-way. The applicant shall provide additional information pertaining to the entry sign and plant materials, including common, botanical and species names, size at installation and any additional information deemed necessary by Landscape Designer. The applicant shall provide evidence of the non-potable water source and delivery for irrigation for proposed plantings. The applicant shall provide additional detail to the relationship of the bus pull-out, mail box location and point of ingress and egress for development. The applicant shall submit an Improvements Agreement for Private Road Maintenance for review and approval with the Final Plat application.

Water Division 1, Water District 4 Dear Ms. Lockman: We have reviewed the above referenced proposal to subdivide a 20-acre parcel described as Lot B of the Recorded Exemption No. 2838 located in the NW1/4 of Section 31, Township 4 North, Range 67 West of the 6th Principal Meridian, into 9 (PUD) single family residential lots of approximately 1-acre in size and 9.9 acres of common open space. The Water Supply Information Summary included in the submittal material indicates that the household use water requirement is 0.7 acre-feet per year per lot totaling 6.3 acre-feet per year for the entire subdivision. The Little Thompson Water District (District) has been proposed as the source of water for the household use of the residential lots and a copy of an Agreement for Water Main Extensions between the applicant and the District was also included in the submitted material. However the District did not sign the agreement, therefore this office cannot determine if the District indeed is committed to supply water to this new development. Pursuant to Section 30-28-136(1)(h)(II), C.R.S., the State Engineer's office offers the opinion that after the District has submitted a letter of obligation to the County, then sufficient evidence will have been presented, such that the proposed water supply can be provided without causing material injury to existing water rights and the supply is expected to be adequate. If you have any questions in this matter, please contact loana Comaniciu of this office. Sincerely, Kenneth W.

The submitted change of zone sheet numbering is confusing. External Roadways: ❑ CR 13 is classified by the County as an arterial road and requires a 140-foot right-of-way. The change of zone plat shows the appropriate 70-foot right-of-way. The applicant shall coordinate work in the right-of-way with the County's railroad crossing project. Various concerns such as grades, drainage and sight distance will need to be orchestrated between these two projects. o The applicant shall verify the existing 30-foot roadway right-of-way, and the documents creating the right-of-way noted on the final plat. If the right-of-way cannot be verified, it will be dedicated on the final plat. o The additional 40-foot of right-of-way shown on the change of zone plat shall be dedicated. If the right-of-way cannot be verified, it will be dedicated on the final plat. ❑ The applicant shall provide a confirmation letter from the Great Western Railroad verifying railroad right-of-way. This letter shall be submitted prior to recording the change of zone plat. ❑ CR 13 serving this development is paved. A traffic impact analysis will not be required. fa. ma-PeaVhvming RenewU Chengo orZane'PZ-621 Estates at Hill Lake Zone Oto.ge)doe Page 1 of 3 12Augoz Internal Roadways: ❑ Internal roads shall meet Weld County criteria for a PUD. The internal roadway right-of- way shall be 60-feet in width including cul-de-sacs with a 65- foot radius, and dedicated to the public. The typical roadway cross-section of interior roadway shall be shown as two 12-foot paved lanes with 4-foot gravel shoulders on the change of zone plat. The cul-de-sac edge of pavement radius shall be 50-feet. Stop signs and street name signs will be required at all intersections. The roadside drainage shall be contained within the right-of-way. ❑ Intersection sight distance triangles at the development entrance will be required. All landscaping within the triangles must be less than 3'/ feet in height at maturity, and noted on the change of zone plat. Entry signage must be outside the sight distance triangles. ❑ The applicant shall provide a pavement design prepared by a professional engineer along with the final plat submittal. ❑ Roadway and grading plans along with construction details will be required for the final plat. ❑ Easements shall be shown in accordance with County standards and / or Utility Board recommendations, also dimensioned on the final plat. Drainage: ❑ The Drainage Investigation & Erosion Control Report, dated June 2002, is in general acceptable. ❑ A 30-foot maintenance easement, measured from the top edge of the ditch, must be preserved for the Farmers Extension Ditch. It is unclear from the plat if the easement shown is measured from the top edge of the ditch. Show this on the change of zone plat. ❑ The June 2002, report states increased runoff due to development is slightly larger. The report shall discuss the increased runoff due to development and the existing condition, correlating data calculations in the discussion and conclusions for the final drainage report. o An 18-inch CMP culvert is proposed at the intersection of CR 13 and Hill Lake Drive. There are no supporting calculations to verify the sizing. Calculations verifying this and discussion in the conclusions correlating the data will be required with the final drainage report. o Storm water conveyance downstream to the southwest needs to be addressed, especially at the intersection of CR 13 and the railroad. The report states that an 18-inch CMP culvert passes beneath CR 13. The report fails to support this with calculations verifying flows from the development will pass this point. Downstream discharge on the north side of the railroad tracks should be fully evaluated to ensure that downstream landowners are not adversely affected. The final drainage report shall address these issues. o The June 2002, report falls short in correlating much of the abundant numerical data in Appendix I to the conclusions and recommendations. The final report shall tie the calculated data to the discussion, conclusions and recommendations.

Planning IDATE: August 8, 2002 O • FROM: Pam Smith, W.C. Department of Pu. icfr COLORADO Health and Environment CASE NO.: PZ-622 NAME: Shultz Farm, Inc. Primary and secondary envelopes have been placed on the plat map submitted in the Change of Zone application, as requested. However, using the worst-case percolation rate (120 minutes per inch) and the most favorable absorption field sizing for an engineered system (water balance design for a 4 bedroom home), the absorption field envelopes are too small (2600 square feet) for the anticipated field sizes (4000 square feet). The applicant is aware of this problem and is working to correct the situation. The Department will not be able to complete an evaluation of the change of zone application until new information is provided. O:\PAM\Planning\chzone\PZ-622-1.rtf Memorandum TO: Sheri Lockman, W.C. Planning IDATE: August 9, 2002 C. FROM: Pam Smith, W.C. Department of Pub--cg) COLORADO Health and Environment \ CASE NO.: PZ-622 NAME: Shultz Farm, Inc. The Weld County Health Department has reviewed this proposal. The applicant proposes a 9 lot PUD on 20 acres. The minimum lot size is 1.0 acre, with an overall density of one septic system per 2.2 acres. Public water and individual sewage disposal systems are proposed for the development. The application has satisfied Chapter 27 of the Weld County Code in regard to water and sewer service. The application states the water will be supplied by Little Thompson Water District. A water service agreement from Little Thompson Water District has been included in the application materials. Sewer will be provided by individual sewage disposal systems. The minimum proposed lot size (1.0 acre) coupled with the overall density of one septic system per 2.2 acres does meet current Department policy. Revised plat maps (no revision date) were received August 8, 2002 by the Department, enlarging the primary and secondary envelopes to an anticipated field sizes of 4000 square feet (worst-case percolation rate - 120 minutes per inch - and the most favorable absorption field sizing for an engineered system -water balance design for a 4 bedroom home). No documentation has been included in the application materials that indicate whether language for the preservation and/or protection of the second absorption field envelope has be placed in the development covenants (no covenants were included in the application materials). The Department recommends approval with the following conditions: 1. Water service shall be obtained from the Little Thompson Water District. 2. This subdivision is in rural Weld County and is not served by a municipal sanitary sewer system. Sewage disposal shall be by septic systems designed in accordance with the regulations of the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, Water Quality Control Division and the Weld County Code in effect at the time of construction, repair, replacement, or modification of the system. Septic systems shall be designed for site-specific conditions, including but not limited to, poor percolation rates, shallow groundwater, bedrock, gravel and/or clay soils. 3. Language for the preservation and/or protection of the absorption field envelopes shall be placed in the development covenants. The covenants shall state that activities such as permanent landscaping, structures, dirt mounds or other items are expressly prohibited in the absorption field site. PZ-622 Shultz Farm Page 2 4. If required, the applicant shall obtain a storm water discharge permit from the Water Quality Control Division of the Colorado Department of Public Health and the Environment. Silt fences shall be maintained on the down gradient portion of the site during all parts of the construction phase of the project. 5. During development of the site, all land disturbances shall be conducted so that nuisance conditions are not created. If dust emissions create nuisance conditions,at the request of the Weld County Health Department, a fugitive dust control plan must be submitted. 6. In accordance with the Regulations of the Colorado Air Quality Control Commission any development that disturbs more than 5 acres of land must incorporate all available and practical methods that are technologically feasible and economically reasonable in order to minimize dust emissions. 7. If land development creates more than a 25-acre contiguous disturbance,or exceeds 6 months in duration, the responsible party shall prepare a fugitive dust control plan, submit an air pollution emissions notice, and apply for a permit from the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. 8. "Weld County's Right to Farm" as provided in Appendix 22-E of the Weld County Code shall be placed on any recorded plat. O:\PAM\Planning\sketch\s-622.rtf Hello
