Intergovernmental Agreement in effect influencing the PUD,and Chapter 19
(Coordinated Planning Agreements), Chapter 22 (Comprehensive Plan),

1) Chapter 19, Article XIV, of the Weld County Code indicates the
Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) boundary with the City of
Longmont presently influences the subject site. However, the
Department of Planning Services and the County Attorney's Office
determined when the application was submitted and under review,
there was no IGA in place between Weld County and the City of
Longmont, therefore, it was determined by the Weld County
Attorney's Office that this application would not be subject to
Chapter 19,Article XIV,of the Weld County Code, because the IGA
was not adopted prior to the submittal and the application for Sketch
Plan, PK-1004.
2) Section 22-2-110.6 (UGB.Goal 2) states, "Concentrate urban
development in or adjacent to existing municipalities orthe 1-25 Mixed
Use Development area,and maintain urban growth boundary areas
that provide an official designation between future urban and
non-urban uses." The PUD is located within the Mixed Use
Development(MUD)area, the boundary of the IGA with the City of
Longmont, and the Municipal Referral area for the Towns of Mead,
Firestone,and Frederick,and Boulder County. The City of Longmont
returned its referral indicating the City would like to reiterate the
notion that a development of this scope would best be served by an
incorporated city where a full range of urban infrastructure and
services can be planned and provided. The City of Longmont also
has concerns regarding on-site drainage, parking configurations,
bicycle lanes,and the incorporation of the"Right to Farm"statement.
The City is in support of the Division of Wildlife recommendations for
the Oligarchy Ditch. The Town of Mead requests that this
development not be approved as an unincorporated project and the
applicants should be required to petition the City of Longmont for
annexation. In addition, the Town of Mead states the northbound
traffic impacts to the Town will likely be significant without providing
the Town revenue or control over any of it. The Town of Frederick
has indicated it has reviewed the request and finds no conflicts with
its interests. No referrals were received from the Town of Firestone
or Boulder County.
3) Section 22-2-230.A(MUD.Goal 1) states, "To plan and to manage
growth, and to provide for ease of inclusion in the 1-25 Mixed Use
Development area and urban development nodes so as to balance
relevant fiscal,environmental,aesthetic and economic components
of the area." The proposal assures that new development occurs in
such a manner as to maintain an attractive working and living
environment. Further, all applicable standards and regulations,
unless otherwise modified herein, of Chapters 22, 23, 26, and 27 of
the Weld County Code, shall be integrated in the design of the Final
Plan and will be addressed through the Site Plan Review process.

The site design integrates residential, neighborhood commercial,
environmental,aesthetic,and economic components into a cohesive
unit that is attractive and compatible with surrounding land uses.
Two letters have been received from surrounding property owners
with concerns regarding the height of the proposed structures,visual
obstruction, and traffic patterns. The Conditions of Approval and
Development Standards ensure that there are adequate provisions
for the protection of the health,safety,and welfare of the inhabitants
of the neighborhood and County.
4) Section 26-1-50.6.1.a(MUD.C.Goal 1)states,"Establish a sense of
community identity within the Mixed Use Development area by
planning and managing residential, commercial, industrial,
environmental, aesthetic, and economic components of the area."
The land uses shown on the Change of Zone plat reflect the uses
shown on the MUD Structural Land Use Map 2.1,dated September8,
2004.
5) Section 26-1-50.B.4.a(MUD.C.Goal 4)states, "The coordination of
municipal,county,regional,and state growth policies and programs,
which includes the Mixed Use Development area, may be evaluated
in order to minimize discrepancies, promote a better understanding
of growth dynamics in the area, avoid duplication of services, and
provide economies of scale." The project is compatible with existing
surrounding uses in terms of general uses, building height, scale,
density, traffic, dust, and noise. The PUD process allows for
flexibility and variety needed to offer a range of products, services,
and uses.
6) Section 26-1-60.C.1.a(MU D.P.Goal 1)states,"Provide efficient and
cost-effective delivery of adequate public facilities and services which
assure the health, safety, and general welfare of the present and
future residents of the area." The site is located in an area where
infrastructure needs will be provided when construction begins on the
LifeBridge PUD. The application has signed agreements in place
with the Saint Vrain Sanitation District, Left Hand Water District,and
Longs Peak Water District. The Weld County Attorney's Office has
indicated the agreements submitted by the applicant are adequate.
7) Section 26-1-70.C.2(MU D.T.Goal2)states,"Promote a pedestrian
trail system to service transportation and recreation purposes within
the Mixed Use Development area." Several pedestrian and open
space connections are proposed to connect the components of the
development and the surrounding properties and developments.
8) Section 26-1-70.C.3.a (MUD.T.Goal 3) states, "New development
within the Mixed Use Development area shall provide a mechanism
2005-3234
PL1655
CHANGE OF DESIGNATED ZONE DISTRICTS,AMPZ#1004-LIFEBRIDGE CHRISTIAN CHURCH
PAGE 4
for balancing relevant fiscal and economic components of
transportation systems." An overall Traffic Impact Analysis has been
prepared for this development, which will address the cumulative
development impacts created by this project and suggest appropriate
mitigation measures.
9) Section 22-3-50.B (P.Goal 2) "Require adequate facilities and
services to assure the health, safety, and general welfare of the
present and future residents of the County." The PUD will be
serviced by the Left Hand Water District and Longs Peak Water
District for potable water and fire protection requirements, and the
Saint Vrain Sanitation District will handle the effluent flow. The
Mountain View Fire Protection District has reviewed the proposal and
does not object to the proposed changes.
b. Section 27-6-120.D.5.b - The uses which will be allowed in the PUD will
conform with the Performance Standards of the PUD Zone District contained
in Chapter 27, Article II, of the Weld County Code.
1) Section 27-2-20, Access standards -The site layout will provide a
network of local, collector, and arterial classified streets. A
greenway/trail system is designed to connect the various
components of the development for pedestrian and bicycle traffic,as
well as provide recreational opportunities. The project offers an
opportunity to accommodate significant transportation improvements
in the area. Weld County Road 3.5 will connect to Weld County
Road 5 between State Highway 119 and Weld County Road 26.
Weld County Road 26 will be re-aligned north of the site, as part of
the proposed expansion of Union Reservoir. The existing railroad
crossing at Weld County Road 3.5 will be moved west to Fairview
Street. A traffic signal will be installed at the intersection of State
Highway 119 and Fairview Street as part of the Sandstone Ranch
(City of Longmont) improvements. The PUD site will be connected
to the re-aligned Weld County Roads 3.5 and 26 at regular intervals,
with traffic signals as warranted. The Colorado Department of
Transportation(COOT),in its referral dated October 6, 2005,states
it is not in support of a direct access (right-in/right-out) off of State
Highway 119.
•
2) Section 27-2-40, Bulk requirements-The applicant has proposed a
deviation from the bulk requirements as set out in the Weld County
Code for the residential component, and Section 23-3-250
Performance Standard of the Commercial Zone District. The
applicant has proposed a maximum building height of sixty(60)feet
for the entire church campus,with an additional seventy-five(75)feet

Performance Standards as delineated in Section 27-2-10 of the Weld
County Code. The Conditions of Approval and Development
Standards ensure compliance with Sections 27-2-20 through

c. Section 27-6-120.D.5.c-The uses which will be permitted will be compatible
with the existing or future development of the surrounding area as permitted
by the existing zoning, and with the future development as projected by
Chapter 22 of the Weld County Code or master plans of affected
municipalities. The PUD is located within the MUD area,the IGA boundary
with the City of Longmont,and the Municipal Referral areas for the Towns of
Mead, Firestone,and Frederick,and Boulder County. The City of Longmont
returned its referral indicating the City would like to reiterate the notion that
a development of this scope would best be served by an incorporated city
where a full range of urban infrastructure and services can be planned and
provided. The City of Longmont also has concerns regarding the on-site
drainage, parking configurations, bicycle lanes, and incorporation of the
"Right to Farm"statement. The City is in support of the Division of Wildlife
recommendations for the Oligarchy Ditch. The Town of Mead requests this
development not be approved as an unincorporated project and the
