COLORADO SUBJECT: AmUSR-935, Brittara Land Company LLC
The Weld County Public Works Department has reviewed this proposal. This project falls primarily under the purview of the
Use by Special Review, Weld County Code, Chapter 23, Article II, Division 4, Section 23. Our comments and requirements
are as follows:
COMMENTS:
WCR 38 is designated on the Weld County Road Classification Plan (FHU) as an arterial road, which requires a 140-foot
right-of-way at full build out. There is presently a 60-foot right-of-way. The section of 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 is measured from the future right-of-way line.
Traffic Counts: Our most recent average daily traffic count (ADT) reflects 234 vehicles taken on 8/24/1999. The traffic
count was taken on WCR 38 between WCR 13 and I-25 adjacent to this location.
REQUIREMENTS:
Future Right-of-Way: The applicant shall place on the plat drawing the future right-of-way totaling 70 feet from the center
or section line of WCR 38.
Accesses: Both accesses to the proposed site enter WCR 38 at a 45° angle. Both access points if used in circulation
pattern shall enter upon WCR 38 at a 90° angle for a minimum of one tractor trailer length to provide adequate sight distance
in both directions.
Circulation: The circulation pattern including the access drives shall be surfaced with recycled gravel or a treated gravel to
keep the dust under control.
Road Maintenance Improvements Agreement: The facility is being proposed as a rail-to-truck hauling operation. The
maintenance responsibility will be to assign a designated haul route from the site to the nearest paved road. The applicant
shall be responsible for applying dust suppressant chemicals (magnesium chloride or calcium chloride) adjacent to the
frontage of the operation and on the haul route where there are any residential structures on WCR 38 that could be affected
by heavy hauling from the USR site. The road shall be treated no less than twice a year, as needed, or as directed by the
Weld County Public Department.
Storm Water Drainage: The historical flow patterns and run-off amounts will be maintained on site in such a manner that it
will reasonably preserve the 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.
I am referring a portion of the storm water drainage to the Weld County Health and Environment Department, as some of the
landscaping material may deal with dyed or stained bark or tree products.
Fire Hydrant: There is a fire hydrant on site. This needs to be placed on the plat drawing.

SUBJECT: Amended Use by Special Review, AmUSR-935
Landscape Referral
Philip Wenta & John Vasquez, Applicants
The Department of Planning Services reviewed the above referenced Use by Special Review
documentation and drawings and offers the following comments:
The Use by Special Review Plat shall be prepared in accordance with Section 23-2-260.D of
the Weld County Code. In addition to these requirements, the plat scale shall be 1" = 50 feet.
Staff will waive the Vicinity Map scale of 1" = 2000 feet. The drawing reviewed delineates the
map at 1" = 1000 feet.
This application shall be in compliance with Section 23-3-250 A. and B and is address in the
following comments.
Section 23-3-250.A.1
Stormwater Management. All users of land shall provide and maintain stormwater retention
facilities designed to retain the stormwater runoff in excess of historic flow from the
undeveloped site. The stormwater retention facility on a developed site shall be designed for a
one-hundred-year storm. The stormwater retention facility shall be designed and operated to
release the retained water at a quantity and rate not to exceed the quantity and rate of a five-
year storm falling on the undeveloped site. The application materials do not specifically
address this issue. The applicant shall contact the Weld County Department of Public Works to
durther discuss this issue.
Section 23-3-250.A.2
Parking. Sufficient screened, off-street, paved parking areas shall be provided to meet the
—requirements of employees, company vehicles, visitors and customers of the Uses Allowed by
Right and Accessory Uses. Appendix 23-A describes the design requirements for parking
spaces and Appendix 23-B delineates the number of parking spaces required by use for this
property.
The proposed facility has retail component associated with this on-site uses. The conceptual
retail facility shall have a minimum of thirty five spaces for retail customers and employees.
Should a retail structure be developed on site and be enclosed in a structure, the parking
requirement will be one space for every 200 SF of floor space. The parking requirement is
established utilizing the information gleaned from the application materials.
Should the numbers increase in either equipment, structures or employees, the parking
requirement shall be structured according to Appendix 23-B of the County Code.
Section 23-3-250.A.3
Street Access. Lots shall have safe access to an approved public or private street. The design
designation of any street or highway as to type shall be in conformance with that shown on the
county thoroughfare plan and/or the master plan of the affected municipality. Visual inspection
of the USR Plat identifies three separate drives. The internal circulation is unclear, additional
information shall be submitted delineating the internal circulation pattern. The applicant shall
contact the Department of Public Works to verify any access requirements off of County Road
38. Written evidence of an approved access from the Department of Public Works shall be
provided to the Department of Planning Services.
Section 23-3-250.A.4
Required Yards - Setback
No use or accessory use may be located closer than twenty-five (25) feet to the existing or
proposed (whichever represents the greater right-of-way width) highway or street right-of-way.
Off-street parking areas may be permitted in the required setback area when the area is
screened from direct view of persons on the public rights-of-way. Fences over six (6) feet in
height are not required to comply with the minimum setback and may be located on the
property line. Fences located on corner lots abutting public right-of-way shall not obstruct the
view of vehicular traffic at an intersection. There was not a scaled elevational drawing of the
structure included in the application materials, therefore, prior to the release of building permits,
the set back shall be verified given the existing proposed site conditions, specifically addressing
the elevated display areas. Written evidence of compliance shall be submitted to the
Department of Planning Services.
Section 23-3-250.A.4
Required Yards - Offset
No use or accessory use may be located closer than ten (10) feet to its lot line. Off-street
parking areas may be permitted in the required offset area when the area is screened from
adjacent lots zoned R-1, R-2, R-3, R-4 or R-5. Fences over six (6) feet in height are not
required to comply with the minimum Offset and may be located on the property line. The plans
submitted with the application materials have not delineated the offset. There was not an
elevational drawing of the structure included in the application materials, therefore, prior to the
release of building permits, the offset shall be verified. Visual inspection of the drawing
identifies the existing storage structure as not being in compliance with this section of the Code.
It is recommended that this offset be verified. Upon verification of offset, it is recommended
that a Non-Conforming Use of a Structure file be set-up to address this issue, if appropriate.
Section 23-3-250.A.5.A
Required Landscaped Areas
No more than eighty-five percent (85%) of the total area of a lot shall be covered. Land shall
not be deemed covered if it is used for growing grass, shrubs, trees, plants or flowers or if
covered by decorative gravel or wood chips, or if it is otherwise suitably Landscaped. There
was not a schematic Landscape and Screening Plan submitted with the application materials. It
is also unclear from the submitted drawings if the fifteen (15) percent landscaped requirement
has been met. The applicant shall address this issue and provide additional documentation
including all proposed fencing, lighting, adjacent property screening and landscape treatment to
meet this section of the Weld County Code.
The applicant shall provide written evidence from all appropriate emergency responders stating
that this encumbrance will not restrict emergency access to this facility. Additional information
2
is required prior to accepting the plat for recording.
Section 23-3-250.A.5.B
That portion of a lot which abuts a public or private street right-of-way shall be landscaped for a
distance of ten (10) feet, measured at a right angle from the lot line towards the interior of the
lot. Sidewalks and driveways may pass through the required landscaped areas. There was not
a schematic Landscape and Screening Plan submitted with the application materials. Additional
information is required prior to accepting the plat for recording.
Section 23-3-250.A.6
Areas used for trash collection shall be screened from public rights-of-way and all adjacent
properties. These areas shall be designed and used in a manner that will prevent wind- or
animal-scattered trash. The application materials did identify the location of the dumpster on
the plat, however, the location appears to be arbitrary and does not flow with the existing on-
site conditions. Future submittals shall address this issue as outlined in this Section of the
Code.
Section 23-3-250.A.7
Water Supply. Uses shall have an adequate source of potable water. The application
materials state that water is provided by a Little Thompson Water District Water tap. There
appears to be no evidence of a commercial tap available on-site. The applicant shall provide
written evidence that a commercial tap is available and obtainable for this facility, as warranted.
Further, the applicant shall meet the requirements of the Weld County Department of Public
Health and Environment.
Section 23-3-250.A.8
Sewage Disposal. Uses shall have adequate sewage disposal facilities. The application
materials state that an existing ISDS system on site that will handle the effluent flow, however,
there was no evidence of an existing septic permit in the referral documents. Further, the
applicant shall meet the requirements of the Weld County Department of Public Health and
Environment.
Section 23-3-250.A.9
Outside Storage. Uses involving outdoor storage of vehicles, (including the parking of
employee vehicles) equipment or materials when permitted shall be screened from public
rights-of-way and all adjacent properties. The application materials and supporting drawings do
not indicate any perimeter screening located on-site, specifically adjacent to the Union Ditch
The applicant shall submit documentation as to how the outside storage will be screened during
the construction period, and for periods thereafter.
Section 23-3-350.B.
Operation Standards. Uses shall demonstrate conformance with the following operation
standards to the extent that they are affected by location, layout and design prior to
construction and operation. It is suggested that the hours of operation be limited to daylight
hours, Monday through Saturday. Hours of operation in the winter months (November through
April) will be 7:00 am to 5:00 pm and in the summer months (May through October) will be 7:00
am to 7:00 pm. Once operational, the operation of the Uses permitted shall conform to these
standards.
3
Section 23-3-350.6.1
Noise. Uses and structures shall be located, designed and operated in accordance with the
noise standards as established in Section 25-12-101 C.R.S. The applicant shall meet the
established standards set by the Weld County Department of Public Health and Environment.
Section 23-3-250.B-2
Air Quality. Uses shall be located, designed and operated in accordance with the air quality
standards established by the Colorado Air Pollution Control Commission. The applicant shall
meet the established standards set by the Weld County Department of Public Health and
Environment.
Section 23-2-250.6.3
Water Quality. Uses shall be located, designed and operated in accordance with the water
quality control standards established by the Colorado Water Quality Control Commission. If
applicable, the applicant shall provide additional information regarding the commercial water tap

States government The application materials do not indicate this is applicable, should this not
be the case, the applicant shall provide additional information to the Weld County Department
of Public Health and Environment.
Section 23-2-250.B.5
Heat. Uses shall not emit heat in such an amount sufficient to raise the temperature of the air
or of materials at or beyond the Lot line more than five (5) degrees Fahrenheit. The application
materials do not indicate this is applicable, should this not be the case, the applicant shall
provide additional information to the Weld County Department of Public Health and
Environment and the Department of Building Inspection. Further, the applicant shall obtain a
written approval from the Mountain View Fire Protection District stating that the facility is in
compliance with the Fire Code.
Section 23-2-250.B.6
Light. Any lighting, including light from high temperature processes such as welding or
combustion, shall be designed, located and operated in such as manner as to meet the
following standards: sources of light shall be shielded so that beams or rays of light will not
shine directly onto adjacent properties; neither the direct nor reflected light from any light
source may create a traffic hazard to operators of motor vehicles on public or private streets;
and no colored lights may be used which may be confused with or construed as traffic control
devices. The application materials did not include a Lighting Plan. Should exterior lighting be a
part of this facility, all light standards shall be delineated on the Site Plan Review Plat.
Section 23-2-250.B.7
Property Maintenance. Property shall be maintained in such a manner that grasses and weeds
are not permitted to grow taller than twelve (12) inches. In no event shall the property owners
allow the growth of noxious weeds. The application materials do not address property
maintenance. Future correspondence shall identify how the property will be in compliance with
this Section of the County Code.
r
4
Section 23-4-50.
Off Street Loading. The applicant shall delineate on the Site Plan Review plat the location of
the loading zone that is in compliance with Section of the Code. There shall be parking or
/ staging of trucks within the public right-of way. Further, the applicant shall meet all
requirements of the Department of Public works concerning access and circulation of vehicles
for this proposed facility.
Section 23-4-90
Signs. The application materials address the issue of on-site signs, the application materials
state no signs will be on-site. Signs are placed only on the vehicles as required by the State.
The applicant shall provide written evidence that all proposed signs are in compliance with this
section of the Code.
The applicant shall enter into an Improvements Agreement according to policy regarding
collateral for improvements and post adequate collateral for all transportation (access drive,
parking areas, etcetera) and non-transportation (plant materials, fencing, screening, etcetera).
The agreement and form of collateral shall be reviewed by County Staff and accepted by the
Board of County Commissioners prior to recording the Site Plan Review plat.
Staff requests a written list of new products to be associated with this facility. It is unclear from
the application materials what materials will be stored and sold on site. USR-935 was permitted
for dry pinto beans; petroleum bulk products, i.e., propane, diesel fuels, regular and unleaded
motor fuels; fertilizer products and herbicides and pesticide products.
Staff also requests additional information on two rail tracks located on this site. Is there right-
of-way associated with the existing rail spur and is the applicant able to cross this spur?
Second, the Great Western Track appears to have right-of-way for this rail line, does the
applicant have the right to store materials or otherwise encroach into this right-of-way?

I have reviewed the submitted material pertaining to the Site Specific Development Plan and Special
Review Permit to amend USR-935 to allow for a landscaping materials yard in the Agricultural Zone
District. (Case Number: AmUSR-935). The Fire District does not object to the request provided the
requirements the Fire District can be met. Based on my review, I have the following comments:
• The Fire District has no objection to use of the existing buildings and site for the storage of
landscaping materials.
• All newly constructed buildings must be in compliance with the requirements of the Fire District
including providing an adequate water supply for fire protection. At this time, there is inadequate
water supply for fire protection to support additional construction or installation of new buildings on
the site.
• All plans for the construction/installation of new buildings must be approved by the Fire District
before building permits may be issued by the Building Department.
• There shall be no fueling operations conducted at the site unless approved by the Fire District. If fuel
operations are contemplated, plans for the installation of fuel tanks must be submitted to the Fire
District for review and approval prior to installation.
• If not already provided, approved address numbers shall be placed on the site in such a position to be
plainly visible and legible from the street fronting the property. Address numbers or letters shall
contrast with their background.
The Fire District reserves the right to make further comments as the project proceeds. Nothing in this
review is intended to authorize or approve of any aspect of this project that does not comply with all
applicable codes and standards. We appreciate being involved in the planning process. Should you have
any questions,please contact me at(303)772-0710.
