ACRES: 74.8 +/-
PARCEL #: 1061 05 100053
THE DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING SERVICES'STAFF RECOMMENDS THAT THIS REQUEST
BE APPROVED FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS:
1. The submitted materials are in compliance with the application requirements of Section 26-
5-30 of the Weld County Code.
2. The submitted materials are in compliance with Section 27.6.120 of the Weld County Code
as follows:
A. Section 27-6-120.B.6.a The proposal is consistent with any intergovernmental
agreement in effect influencing the PUD and Chapters 19 (Coordinated Planning
Agreements), Chapter 22(Comprehensive Plan), Chapter 23(Zoning), Chapter 24
(Subdivision) and Chapter 26 (Mixed Use Development) of this Code. The
proposed site is not influenced by an Inter-Governmental Agreement. The proposal
is consistent with the aforementioned documents as follows:
1) Section 22-2-60.A, A.Goal 1 -- "Conserve agricultural land for agricultural
purposes which foster the economic health and continuance of agriculture.."
PZ-1058, Las Haciendas PUD,page 3
Chapter 22, Section 22-2-60.1.1, A.Goal 9 indicates that eighty (80) acres
is considered the minimum lot size for a viable farming operation. The
subject parcel is 74.8 acres net in size and is classified as "prime" and
"prime if irrigated" farmland on the Important Farmlands of Weld County
map. Historically the subject parcel has not been utilized for crop
production. Given the lack of viable soils and lack of irrigation water, prime
farmland will not be removed from production.
2) Section 22-2-60.D, A.Goal 4 -- "Conversion of agricultural land to
residential,commercial and industrial development will be discouraged when
the subject site is located outside of a municipality's comprehensive plan
area, urban growth boundary area, or 1-25 Mixed Use Development area
and urban development nodes." The application proposes non-urban scale
development as defined by Section 27-2-140 of the Weld County Code.
Section 27-2-140 defines non-urban scale development as"...developments
comprising of nine (9)or fewer residential lots, located in a non-urban area
as defined in Chapter 22 of this Code, not adjacent to other PUDs,
subdivisions, municipal boundaries or urban growth corridors." This
proposal includes public water and consists of eight (8) PUD Estate zoned
residential lots, one buildable agricultural lot and 11.2 acres of open space.
The proposed minimum lot size is 3.6 acres with an overall density of 8.2
acres per septic system.
3) Section 22-2-60.C., A.Goal 3 -- "Provide a mechanism for the division of
land which is agriculturally zoned. The intent of this goal should be to
maintain and enhance the highest level of agricultural productivity in Weld
County." The proposed level of development is non-urban as defined in
Section 27-2-140. The addition of eight (8) PUD Estate zoned residential
lots, one buildable agricultural lot will have minimal impact on the local
service providers.
4) Section 22-2-110.C., UGB.Goal 3—"The County and municipalities should
coordinate land use planning in urban growth boundary areas, including
development policies and standards, zoning, street and highway
construction, open space, public infrastructure and other matters affecting
orderly development." The Towns of Johnstown, Berthoud and Larimer
County have indicated that they find no conflict with their interests.
5) Section 22-2-1903.3, R.Policy 2.3 --"New residential development should
demonstrate compatibility with existing surrounding land use in terms of
general use, building height, scale, density, traffic, dust and noise." The
proposed subdivision takes into consideration the surrounding properties,
as well as the site advantages. The site is designed with a perimeter buffer
around all lots separating the residential lots from the adjacent properties
and the Lake Ditch Company irrigation canal. The Department of Planning
Services will require Weld County's Right to Farm statement as stated in
Appendix 22-E of the Weld County Code to be placed on the plat.
Additionally, the applicant shall place the oil and gas drill envelopes on all
plats.
PZ-1058, Las Haciendas PUD,page 4
6) Section 22-2-210.D.2, PUD.Policy4.2— "A planned unit development which
includes a residential use should provide common open space free of
buildings, streets, driveways or parking areas. The common open space
should be designed and located to be easily accessible to all the residents
of the project and usable for open space and recreation...." This proposal
includes fifteen(15)percent open space . Further,the landscape treatment
will focus on the retention of the established native plant species, and the
agricultural parcel may be farmed. Every effort is made to retain the native
grasses and drought tolerant vegetation in an effort to conserve available
water.
7) 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 proposed PUD will be serviced with Little
Thompson Water District for potable water and fire protection requirements;
I.S.D.S., septic systems will handle the effluent flow.
B. Section 27-6-120.6.b -The uses which would be allowed in the proposed PUD will
conform with the Performance Standards of the PUD Zone District contained in
Article II, Chapter 27 of this Code. The applicant has met the twenty performance
standards as delineated in Section 27-2-10 regarding access, buffering and
screening,bulk requirements,circulation,etcetera. The Conditions of Approval and
Development Standards ensure compliance with Sections 27-2-20 through 27-2-210
of the Weld County Code.
C. Section 27-6-120.6.c-That the uses which would be permitted shall 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 this
Code or master plans of affected municipalities.
The proposed site is not influenced by an Inter-Governmental Agreement. The
Towns of Johnstown, Berthoud and Larimer County have indicated that they find no
conflict with their interests.
D. Section 27-6-120.6.d-That the PUD Zone District shall be serviced by an adequate
water supply and sewage disposal system in compliance with the Performance
Standards in Article II of this Code.
Little Thompson Water District has indicated their ability and willingness to service
this application. The Office of the State Engineer, in their letter dated December 8,
2004 stated The Little Thompson Water District will provide water for the residential
lots. The district has agreed to serve the proposed site and a copy of an approved
"Agreement for Water Main Extension" has been submitted. Sewage disposal will
be served by Individual Sewage Disposal Systems (I.S.D.S.). Based on a
geotechnical report from American Eagle Engineering, dated March 15, 2004, and
submitted with the sketch plan application indicates that all lots will be suitable for
conventional septic systems. The property contains one irrigation ditch which
traverses the property northwest to southeast.
PZ-1058,Las Haciendas PUD, page 5
E. Section 27-6-120.6.e - That street or highway facilities providing access to the
property are adequate in functional classification, width, and structural capacity to
meet the traffic requirements of the uses of the proposed PUD Zone District.
The Colorado Department of Transportation reviewed this proposal and finds no
conflict with their interests as access permit number 403106 has been obtained
authorizing traffic volumes for nine (9) single family residential dwellings as stated
in their referral dated May 18, 2004.
F. Section 27-6-120.6.f - An off-site road improvements agreement and an on-site
improvements agreement proposal is in compliance with Chapter 24 of the Weld
County Code as amended and a road improvements agreement is complete and
has been submitted, if applicable.
Development Standards and Conditions of Approval ensure compliance with
Chapter 24, Article VII, and Sections 24-9-10 and 24-9-20 of the Weld County
Code.
The Weld County Public Works Department and Department of Planning Services
shall require an Improvements Agreement in accordance with Section 27-6-120.6.f
of the Weld County Code for improvements to Celeste Lane and all on-site
improvements.
G. Section 27-6-120.6.g - That there has been compliance with the applicable
requirements contained in Chapter 23 regarding overlay districts, commercial
mineral deposits, and soil conditions on the subject site.
The Colorado Geological Survey, in their referral letter dated June 10, 2004,
identified a concern with subsurface groundwater. Below-grade construction should
include foundation drains that discharge by gravity, to prevent the build-up of
subsurface water near foundation components and potential seepage into
crawlspaces and basements. The standard three (3) foot separation ground floor
and groundwater is a prudent practice.
Additional concerns were raised concerning the shrink-swell potential and low
strength properties of the soils. The applicant has indicated that lot specific geo-
technical investigations and percolation tests will be conducted on all lots prior to
construction. Further, the applicant has indicated that the recommendations of the
Colorado Geologic Survey will be followed per their evaluation and
recommendation.
The applicant does not have an agreement with the mineral interests associated
with this property,however,the applicant has delineated drilling envelopes per State
Statute on all sheets associated with this application.
H. Section 27-6-120.6.h - Consistency exists between the proposed zone district(s),
uses, the specific or conceptual development guide.
PZ-1058, Las Haciendas PUD,page 6
The submitted Specific Development Guide does accurately reflect the performance
standards and allowed uses described in the proposed zone district, as described

COMMENTS:
Rural residential with large lot estate style homes on large tracts of land is the general character in the
vicinity.
The tract of land for Las Haciendas PUD is presently constructed. The utilities are pulled, hydrants are in
place, the road layout including appropriate right-of-way is bladed and pitched to drain. There is an
existing residential structure on the South side of the ditch that is under construction.
One well head and no tank battery is present. An irrigation ditch bisects the property. The site is basically
"clean"with few non-commercial junkyard components.
