The subject site is presently zoned E (Estate) and is des- ignated as outlot "B" on the approved preliminary plat. It was always intended that the parcel would be used as a practice fairway, however, we have been advised by County staff that use would be limited to residents of the area unless the zoning is changed to agricultural , and the parcel added to the golf course conditional use permit . Approval of the requested rezoning and conditional use permit will permit use of the area by all golf course users . It is our opinion that access , water supply, water rights , soils , and other concerns have been suitably addressed in previous submittals and are not pretinerit here. 1• Weld County Commissioners Page 2 May 20, 1980 We are also submitting the Applicant' s check, one in the amount of $280. 00, including the required application filing fee; and one in the amount of $12 . 00, including the filing fee of the attached plat. • Respectfully submitted, NORTON, UNDERWOOD AND LAMB GEORGE M.

Blehm Land and Cattle Company Conditional Use Permit for Golf Course. Pt. Sec. 34 , TSN, R67W. Dear Ms. ^araxler: The proposed Golf Course development does not occur in a designatedifloodplain. However, the course is adjacent to a small unnamed tributary of the Big Thompson River draining approximately .7 square Miles of area. This is a large enough drainage area that it is important to maintain the existing drainage patterns with sufficient channel and storage capacities to handle the 100- year flood discharges. At present there are no conflicts with our interests. However, we would recommend determination of the 100-year floodplain and analysis of present channel and -water storage capabilities. - If you have any further questions, I will be happy to respond.

When range condition deteriorates , switchgrass, 1 /1 •7 alkali sacaton and western wheatgrass d ease and saltgrass , sedge and rush increase . Management of vegetation on this soil should be based on taking half and l leaving half of the total annual production. Seeding on this side is difficult and costly since numerous tillage practices are required to eliminate the saltgrass sod . Switchgrass , western wheatgrass , alkali sacaton , tall wheatgrass and tall fescue arc suitable for seeding. For successful seeding a clean, firm seedbed -- usually requires more [hap one year to eliminate the saltgrass sod -- and a grass drill should be used. Early spring seeding has proven most successful . Wetland wildlife , especially waterfowl, utilize these areas . The � availability of moisture due to the wetness of this soil allows pro- 4774 duction of wetland plants that provide nesting and protective cover, as well as some food for waterfowl. The iuxtaposition of this soil to irrigated cropland areas where wildlife obtain much of their food . along with the cover provided , make this soil valuable to both wetlari and openland wildlife. Openland wildlife , especially pheasants , use these areas for cover and nesting , while they also provide excellent cover for deer when found • in ;areas inhabited by deer. Management for wildlife would include prevention of overgrazing by livestock , protection from unplanned fire , and prevention of drainage. Where livestock are present , these valuable wildlife areas should be ferced to prevent unwanted encroachment and overuse by livestock.

It formed in materials weathered resi- dually from shale. • Included in this unit are some soils with shale and sandstone deeper than 40 inches. Some small outcrops were also included in mapping. Typically the surface layer is a brown loam about 8 inches thick. The underlying material is pale brown loam about 17 inches thick. Depth to shale! ranges from 20 to 40 inches. Permeability is moderate. Available water capacity is moderate. Effective Alef={nn, rooting depth is 20 to 40 inches. Surface runoff is medium to rapid and erosion hazard is moderate. This soil is suited to limited cropping; intensive cropping is hazardous because of erosion. The cropping system should be limited to close groan crops such as alfalfa, wheat and barley. The soils also are adapted to irrigated pasture. A suitable cropping system would be alfalfa 3 to 4 years followed by corn and small grain for 2 years ,and alfalfa seeded with a nurse crop. Close grown crops may be irrigated from closely spaced contour ditches or sprinklers. Contour furrows or sprinklers should be used for new crops. Application of commercial fertilizer gill help maintain good , production. '1 • ! . . 1/3. • Cif) 'I.�r,. "Wial - The potential native vegetation on thisso ilis dominated by bloc grans . Several midgrasses such as western wheatl -a:::: and needle and thread are also present. Potential production ranges from 1600 pounds per acre in I favorable years to 1000 pounds per acre in unfavorable years. When range i condition deteriorates, the midgrasses. decrease, blue grama, huffalograss, snakeweed, yucca and fringed sage increase and production drops. Undesirable • weeds and annuals invade the site as range condition becomes poorer. I Management of vegetation on this soil should be 'based on taking half and I leaving half of the total annual production. Seeding is advisable if range is in poor condition. Sideoats grama, little bluestcm, western wheat- grass, blue grama, pubscent whestgrass and crested whestgrass are suitable rrrri for seeding. The grass selected should meet the seasonal requirements iWiy of livestock. For successful seeding, a clean, firm, sorghum stubble-- prepared the growing season prior to seeding--or a firm, prepared seedbed and grass drill should be used. Early spring seeding has proven most succesIsful. I Windbreak and environmental plantings are generally not suited to this soil. On-site investigation is needed to determine if plantings are feasilile. Rangeland wildlife, such as antelope, cottontail and coyote are best adapted for life on this soil. Forage production is typically low and _ proper livestock grazing management is necessary if livestock and wildlife share the range. Livestock watering facilities are also important and arc "LL;;. utilized by various wildlife species. In cropland areas, habitat favorable for pllheasants, mourning doves and many non-game species can be developed by establishing wildlife areas for nesting and escape cover.
