Date Date: July 18th, 2005 To: Weld County Planning Commission, From: Jeff & Teresa Beemer 1850 East Highway 60 Loveland, CO 80537 Re: Planning Hearing 7-20-05 Docket # 2005-53 Applicant: Francisco Garcia 1959 Blanca Court Loveland, Colorado 80538 Dear Planning Commission Members. We would like to comment on the hearing for the proposal to create 8 residential lots on property located very close to the property which we own in Weld County just off Highway 60. We own 8 acres just to the west of WCR 5 and south of Highway 60. The land around us is predominately used for agricultural purposes with limited residential acreages starting to be developed. We understand the commission is being asked to consider approving an additional 4 lots (total of 8) on the land near ours. Our stance on this type of development is that the use of the land will continue to evolve over time and the land owners have the right to follow the rules of Weld County and the state of Colorado when considering the use of their land. This is an undeniable fact in the area we live in. It is also our belief that the land owners should be required to follow the guidelines and rules the county and state have established in terms of sub-dividing their property. It is our understanding that land owners are allowed to sub-divide their property in half every ten years . We have used our property for Agricultural purposes for the 9.75 years we have lived here. We have livestock and will continue to maintain a lifestyle with the animals in the future. We want to insure that current land owners understand we have been raising livestock and will continue to use our land for agricultural purposes as long as we live here. We would like the commissioners to consider all aspects of the proposal to insure it meets the Weld County guidelines and does not go against the 10 year guideline for sub-dividing land in Colorado. Thank you for your time.
