Section 23-2-230.6.2—The proposed use is consistent with the intent of the A (Agricultural) Zone District. Section 23-3-40.R of the Weld County Code provides for any use permitted as a Use by Right, an Accessory Use, or a Use by Special Review in the Commercial or Industrial Zone Districts, provided that the property is not a Lot in an approved or recorded subdivision plat or lots part of a map or plan filed prior to adoption of any regulations controlling subdivisions, as a Use by Special Review in the A (Agricultural) Zone District. Section 23-3-320.B.1 allows any use of a research, repair, manufacturing, fabricating, processing, assembling or storage nature as a Use Allowed by Right in the 1-2 (Industrial) Zone District. The use may be conducted outside of an enclosed building, provided that the use and/or operations of the use are screened from adjacent public rights-of-way and adjacent properties. c. Section 23-2-230.B.3—The uses which will be permitted will be compatible with the existing surrounding land uses. The surrounding area is primarily agricultural with a few residences associated with the agricultural activities. State Highway 52 is located in close proximity to the southern boundary of the parcel and there is commercially zoned property located approximately one-quarter mile to the southeast. The proposed building will include a 7,000 square-foot office and a 13,000 square-foot shop. Exterior storage will comprise approximately five (5) acres. The Conditions of Approval and Development Standards ensure that the proposal is consistent with surrounding land uses. d.

This proposal does lie within the three-mile referral area for the City of Fort Lupton. The City of Fort Lupton requested the use to be fully screened. Condition of Approval #1.C. addresses the City's concerns. e. Section 23-2-230.B.5 -- The site does not lie within any Overlay Districts. f. Section 23-2-230.6.6 -- The applicant has demonstrated a diligent effort to conserve prime agricultural land in the locational decision for the proposed use. The property is Lot B of Recorded Exemption #2765 and is considered prime agricultural land by the Important Farmlands of Weld County Map, dated 1979. The applicant has proposed to place business related buildings and land uses within a twelve-acre building envelope, which would leave the remaining 52 acres available for agricultural uses. However, Section 22-2-60.1.1 of the Weld County Code indicates that eighty (80) acres is considered the minimum lot size needed for a viable farming operation and the subject property is 64.7 acres in size. 2002-1199 PL1590 SPECIAL REVIEW PERMIT #1375 - JAMES TERRY PAGE 3 g.
