The sheriffs office would however be willing to provide a program entitled Crime Prevention through Environmental Design to the developer. This program reduces the likelihood of criminal activity at a specific location by"hardening" it to crime. The Sheriffs Office lacks the ability to absorb any additional service demand without the resources recommended in the multi-year plan provided to the Board of County Commissioners or as indicated by growth not considered at the time the plan was developed.

The site is approximately 7 acres and will be used for flying radio control model aircrafts. The property is north of and adjacent to County Road 36 and just east of County Road 1. Review Criteria: The intent of the review of the referral is to accurately assess the drainage and transportation aspects for the site and confirm that these aspects will not impact the surrounding areas that are in Larimer County. Development review staff from this office have reviewed the materials that were submitted to our office per the criteria found in the LCLUC, Road Manual, Access Code, Storm-Water Management Manual (LCSWMM), and pertinent Intergovernmental Agreements. Transportation/Access Issues: • This project will access off of Weld County Road 1 (LCR 904). The Larimer County Transportation Plan, adopted in September of 2000, functionally classifies LCR 904 as a minor collector that requires a 100-foot right-of-way(50 feet half right-of-way). Larimer County typically requests that any additional ROW needed be dedicated as part of the proposed development. • Larimer County maintains County Road 904 and we are therefore interested in any additional trips that will be using the section of CR 904 to the north of the site. Therefore,we would like a Traffic Impact Study for this development submitted to our office for our information and review. Draina2e/Floodplain/Erosion Control Issues: • We assume that a Drainage and Erosion Control Plan and Report will be required. However, it does not appear that any unincorporated areas of the County will be impacted by drainage off of this site. Conclusion: Other than our interest regarding the additional trips that will be generated on County Road 904, our department does not have any major concerns with the proposal. Please feel free to contact me at(970)498-5701 if you have any questions. Thank you. cc: Jill Bennett, Larimer County Planning Department file EXHIBIT \\engl fs\vol I\data\devrev\plancltk\referrals counties\weld\ongnnont aircraft modelers.doc ' / _ ^� MEMORANDUM t Cr(1:1PHI .„, WII TO: Kim Ogle, Planner III DATE: 10/6/2003 CFROM: Donald Carroll, Engineering Administrator u"� • SUBJECT: USR-1446, Longmont Aircraft Modelers Association COLORADO The Weld County Public Works Department has reviewed this proposal. This project falls primarily under purview of the Use by Special Review Standards, Weld County Code, Chapter 23, Article II, Division 4, Section 23. Our comments and requirements are as follows: COMMENTS: WCR 36 is designated on the Road Capital Improvement Plan in the County Wide Impact Fee Code Ordinance, Section 20-1-30, as a local gravel road, which requires a 60-foot right-of-way at full build out. There is presently a 60-foot right-of-way. This road is maintained by Weld County. Pursuant to the definition of SETBACK in the weld County Code, Chapter 23, Article III, Section 23-3-50, the required setback measured from the future right-of-way line. she most current traffic count on WCR 36 between WCR 1 and WCR 3 was taken on 8/29/2003, and it Jlected 90 vehicles per day taken in a 72-hours period. REQUIREMENTS: Access: Utilize the existing access to the proposed USR facility. There is a steel pipe gate and (4) four strand barbed wire fence securing the facility. The gate is set back from the County road to provide a vehicle space to pull off WCR 36 prior to opening the secured gate. There will be no staging or parking on WCR 36. Utilize the internal parking spaces to the facility. Off-Street Parking: The off-street parking spaces and the access drive shall be surfaced with gravel, asphalt, concrete or the equivalent and shall be graded to prevent drainage problems. The parking diagram indicated that the chain link fence is separated from the facility. Overflow Parking: The applicant indicated that the additional overflow parking is located directly south of the main parking area. Storm Water Drainage: The historical flow patterns and run-off amounts will be maintained on site in such a manner that will reasonably preserve natural character of the area and prevent property damage of the type generally attributed to run-off rate and velocity increases, diversions, concentration and/or unplanned ponding of storm run-off. pc: USR-1446 M:\PLANNING\USR-1.DOC l^' EXHIBIT Memorandum TO: Kim Ogle, W.C.
