Wade Schoemaker stated he is one of the Veterinaries which will be working from this site. In
response to Commissioner Masden, Mr. Schoemaker stated their primary goal is to treat out-
patient animals; however, they will do some short term boarding for critical care patients. He
further stated they will only treat large animals, and added there is only one other large animal
clinic in Weld County, so there is a high demand for this service.
Don Carroll, Department of Public Works, stated "O" Street has been annexed by the City of
Greeley, and the applicant has reserved an additional 20 feet for future expansion of"O"Street.
He further stated there will be adequate room for customers to pull off of"O"Street and wait if they
arrive early and the gate is not open. Responding to Commissioner Jerke, Mr. Carroll stated with
the additional right-of-way reservation, the north side of "O" Street will be 50 feet in width. In
response to Commissioner Geile,Ms. Light stated that although the City of Greeley has no specific
opposition, there is a condition that requests the applicant attempt to address the requests of the
City. She confirmed that the applicant will not be required to adhere to the City of Greeley's
Development Code.
Pam Smith, Department of Public Health and Environment, stated the facility will be served by a
septic system,which has been reviewed and the permit was issued in May. She further stated the
applicant has addressed the disposal of waste and staff has no additional concerns.

Schoemaker stated the facility will be approximately 16,000 square feet and designed similar to

rooms, and stalls. He further stated four to five veterinaries will work from this site, in addition to
