Dear Mr. Otis:
The Water Quality Control Division(Division) has received and reviewed your correspondence, dated
November 21, 2003, in relation to the above referenced subject and your proposed amendment to the
Weld County Planning Commission's recommendation for approval.
Your November 21, 2003 correspondence to the Division requests acknowledgement that (a) your
proposed amendment satisfies the conditions of approval summarized below, that (b) Moises Rodriguez
has taken steps to address the Colorado Primary Drinking Water regulations and that (c) the issues
identified in the Division's August 8, 2003 letter are satisfied.
On October 21, 2003, the Weld County Planning Commission, via resolution, recommended approval of
Moises Rodriguez's application for a Site Specific Development Plan and Special Review Permit for the
Hudson Labor Camp. The application is for housing for 60 migrant farm laborers between May 1 and
September 30 of each calendar year and 20 migrant farm laborers between October 1 and April 30 of
each calendar year. The Weld County Planning Commission's recommendation for approval is
conditioned upon several items, including:
• Prior to scheduling a Board of County Commissioners hearing:
o The applicant shall provide written evidence of steps being taken to address the Colorado
Primary Drinking Water Regulations, including the establishment of an approved Public
Water System recognized and conditionally approved by the Colorado Department of
Public Health and Environment.

o The applicant shall provide written evidence of steps being taken to address the Colorado
Primary Drinking Water violations as addressed in Division correspondence, dated
August 8, 2003.
• Prior to recording the plat for the application:
o Submit evidence that the Site Application process has been initiated with the Colorado
Department of Public Health and Environment.
o The facility shall comply with the Colorado Primary Drinking Water Regulations.
o The applicant shall provide written evidence that all violations, including the testing and
monitoring of the public water system have been resolved to the satisfaction of the
Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment.
The Development Standards accompanying the Resolution of Recommendation to the Board of County
Commissioners include the following requirements:
• Prior to occupancy of the migrant housing facility in May 2004 (or any year) the applicant must
show evidence of Site Application approval, and construction of the approved domestic
wastewater treatment works must be completed. Included with this approval is evidence that a
Wastewater Discharge Permit has been obtained.
• The applicant shall comply with the requirements of the Site Application approval permit at all
times.
• Once the facility infrastructure is in place, the water system shall comply with the Public Water
System as defined in the Primary Drinking Water Regulations.
Your November 21, 2003 correspondence to the Division suggests the following amendment to
Development Standards:
• "The site is approved for 60 migrant farm laborers between May 1 and September 30 of each
calendar year, and 24 migrant farm laborers between October 1 and April 30 of each calendar
year, but in no event shall more than 24 persons occupy the site prior to the time the water
system on the site meets all requirements of a public water system as defined in the Colorado
Primary Drinking Water regulations."
The Division is not able to comply with your requests for the following reasons:
• The proposed amendment does not satisfy the conditions of approval summarized above. The
Division considers the conditions of approval as presented to be appropriate.
• Mr. Rodriguez has not taken adequate steps to address the Colorado Primary Drinking Water
Regulations.
• The issues identified in the Division's August 8, 2003 letter have not been satisfied.

Furthermore, the applicant has not responded to the Division's August 4, 2003 correspondence
(Certified Mail: 7002 2410 0001 0123 4209) reporting the results of the compliance inspection of the
community water system conducted by the Division on July 29,2003. The August 4, 2003
correspondence identified two significant deficiencies and four violations of the Colorado Primary
Drinking Water Regulations that required written responses by September 5, 2003.
Finally, the applicant has not responded to the Division's August 8, 2003 correspondence (Certified
Mail: 7002 2410 0001 0123 4216) associated with wastewater treatment and disposal at the Hudson
Labor Camp. The August 8, 2003 correspondence highlights the Hudson Labor Camp's violation of the
Water Quality Control Act and details actions required to bring the facility into compliance with the
regulations. A written response, required by September 8, 2003, has not been provided as requested.
Should you have any comments or questions, please contact me at 303-692-3507.

Re: Board of County Commissioners of Weld County Docket # 2004-14
Dear Commissioners:
This firm represents the Town of Hudson. Please let this letter serve as a statement of
opposition on behalf of the Town of Hudson to the land use application filed by Moises
Rodriguez seeking a Site Specific Development Plan and a Special Review Permit.
First, your file should include a letter dated July 23, 2003, from Town Administrator Jim
Landeck to Kim Ogle stating the Town of Hudson's objections regarding this land use
application when it was considered by the Weld County Planning Commission. Please consider
once again the objections raised in the July 23, 2003, correspondence for purposes of the hearing
now scheduled for February 25, 2004. From the Town's perspective, absolutely nothing has
changed from the time the Town first specified its opposition to this land use application to the
present date.
Moreover, as you are listening to and considering the evidence at the public hearing, the
Town would ask you to consider how the County intends to monitor compliance with the Special
Review Permit in the event it is granted. How do you determine the number of persons truly
living at the site? How do you determine if this is truly migrant farmworker housing as defined
in the Weld County Code? How can Weld County guarantee the health, safety and welfare of its

constituents adjacent to this site? The Town of Hudson does not have jurisdiction over this
enclave, either from a land use perspective or a code enforcement perspective. Yet all of the
negative impacts created by this existing land use which is now in front of the Board for
approval are borne by the Town of Hudson. Thus, the Town would respectfully request that you
give due consideration to the Town's objections, especially in light of the fact it is the Town of
Hudson that is adversely impacted by this land use.
In addition to what is stated in Mr. Landeck's correspondence, the Town would
respectfully request that you carefully consider your own criteria in determining whether to
approve this application. A careful application of the criteria in the Weld County Code to this
application dictates that the application be denied for the following reasons.
The Weld County Code establishes a process for approval of Special Review Permit
applications. See Weld County Code ("WCC"), Ch. 23, Article II, Division 4. The Board of
County Commissioners is required to find that this application has met the seven standards or
conditions contained in WCC § 23-2-230(B)(1)-(7), including the three conditions quoted below
that the Town will focus on. See WCC § 23-2-230(B)(1)-(7) ("In making a decision on the
proposed Use by Special Review, the Board of County Commissioners shall...approve the
request...only if it finds that the applicant has met the standards and conditions of this
Subsection B...."). However, please note the Town is certainly concerned with the remaining
criteria, including the water and sewer impacts, but the Town will focus its argument on the three
criteria which the applicant simply cannot satisfy.
Therefore, the Town would ask the Board of County Commissioners to focus on the
following three criteria from WCC § 23-2-230(B)(1)-(7):
3. That the USES which would be permitted will be compatible with the
existing surrounding land USES.
4. That the USES which would be permitted will be compatible with 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.
7. That there is adequate provision for the protection of health, safety and
welfare of the inhabitants of the NEIGHBORHOOD and COUNTY.
WCC § 23-2-220(A)(3),(4),(7).
From the Town's perspective, it is problematic to say the least that the Planning
Commission, in its "Resolution of Recommendation to the Board of County Commissioners,"
2/24/04
C:IWLNNfTEMPIWELD COUNTY LAND USE APPL-L02.DOC
Weld County Commissioners
February 24, 2004
Page 3
found that the conditions 3, 4, and 7 (WCC § 23-2-220(A)(3),(4),(7)) were met despite direct
evidence presented by the Town to the contrary. For purposes of clarity, the Town will address
each of the three conditions separately below.
A. WCC§23-2-220(A)(3)
Regarding WCC § 23-2-220(A)(3), the Commission's Resolution states: "The uses
which will be permitted will be compatible with the existing surrounding land uses." Yet, Jim
Landeck provided essentially uncontroverted information that does not support this conclusion.
As part of the application process, referrals and "Notice of Inquiry" went out to various agencies
and bodies, including the Town of Hudson. In response to the inquiry, Jim documented how the
current and proposed use of the site is particularly ill suited to be located so close to Memorial
Park.
Mr. Landeck provided testimony and previous correspondence regarding the extended
use of portable restroom facilities in the Town Park directly south of the site by the tenants of the
Rodriguez property, as well as the considerable vandalism in the park, at the senior housing
property and numerous complaints regarding intimidation, and use of alcohol by groups in the
park. These groups were then witnessed returning to the Rodriguez facility." He also recounted
incidents when gunfire was reportedly heard coming from the site. These incidents certainly
demonstrate that the property is located too close to the Town's park for the two uses to safely
coexist, making the uses incompatible. Further, given the established record of behavioral
problems with tenants at the site, it seems safe to presume that more, not fewer, such problems
would arise if the facility is allowed to expand to year-round use as outlined in the application.
Considering the above, it is unclear how the Commission could have concluded that the
proposed use "will be compatible with the existing surrounding land uses." The Town
respectfully requests that the Board of County Commissioners not make the same mistake.
It also appears from the record of the Planning Commission hearing that the basis for the
finding of compatibility was that the site has previously been used for migrant housing for 26
years. The Town would respectfully request the historic use of the site has nothing to do with its
current compatibility, and in fact, the use is now fundamentally incompatible with the
surrounding land uses on all sides. With the closure of the Dean Pickle property, this migrant
housing development is now incompatible with the surrounding land uses.
B. WCC§23-2-220(A)(4)
Concerning WCC § 23-2-220(A)(4), the Commission found that "[t]he uses which will
be permitted will be compatible with future development of the surrounding area as permitted by
the existing zoning and with the future development as projected by...the Master Plans of
2/24/04
C:IWINN71TEMPI WELD COUNTY LAND USE APPL-L02.DOC

Page 4
affected municipalities." There is no question that the property is within the Town's Urban
Growth Boundary or that the Town is an"affected municipality" as that term is used in the Code.
The County acknowledged as much by seeking the Town's input in approval process.
Moreover, the Town and the County have been diligently attempting to finalize the
Intergovernmental Agreement regarding urban growth boundaries, and the Town is now waiting
for the County's approval. Even absent final approval, it is undeniable that this property is
essentially a Weld County enclave within the Town. Approving an incompatible use such as this
one is directly contrary to the letter of the now pending IGA, and is certainly contrary to the
spirit of cooperation on land use matters that the Town and the County have been pursuing.
At the Planning Commission hearing, after seeking the Town's input, the Planning
Commission seemed to ignore it, and instead concluded that the uses would be compatible with
future development of"affected municipalities"despite Town Administrator Jim Landeck stating
clearly and repeatedly that the property is not compatible with the Town's current
Comprehensive Plan for the area. Please note that for purposes of this hearing, the property will
ultimately be a commercial/industrial area adjacent to the railroad. Such a use is obviously not
consistent with year-round migrant farm worker housing.
C. WCC§23-2-220(A)(7)
Finally, regarding WCC § 23-2-220(A)(7), the Planning Commission found that the
application contained "adequate provisions for the protection of health, safety, and welfare of the
inhabitants of the neighborhood and County." However, as mentioned above, the Commission
heard evidence, presented by the Town, of inappropriate, unsafe activities occurring at the site
and spilling over into the Town's park, and the Commission did not recommend requiring the
applicant to take any steps to remedy the problems.
In coming to its conclusion, the Commission seemed to ignore the documented instances
of vandalism, disorder, and weapons use and the threat to the health, safety, and welfare that
those activities pose to the inhabitants of the Town of Hudson. If nothing else, the land owner
should have some burden of showing that the property has been cleaned up, that it is being used
for migrant housing as opposed to permanent rental units, and that the land owner has taken the
necessary steps to insure the adequate protection of the health, safety, and welfare of the
inhabitants of the neighborhood and the County. Many of the citizens in the Town of Hudson
are literally fearful going near this property because of the frequent disturbances emanating from
the property.
In short, in finding that the Rodriguez applications meets the conditions set out in WCC §
23-2-220(A)(3),(4),(7), the Planning Commission overlooked substantial, competent evidence
presented by the Town showing how the proposed use is incompatible with current uses,
2/24/04
CAWLNNnTEMPIWELD COUNTY LAND USE APPL-L02.DOC
Weld County Commissioners
February 24, 2004
Page 5
inconsistent with planned future development, and unsafe. By recommending approval despite
the evidence presented by the Town, the Commission did not conscientiously apply its own
review standards or faithfully uphold the Weld County Code. The Town would respectfully
request the Board of County Commissioner apply the Code's criteria, and DENY the application.
Very truly yours,
?

Dear Moises and Javier:
As you are aware, on August 8, 2003 I observed what appeared to be water from washing machines
discharging into the nearby wetland area in the railroad right of way. This is a violation of Weld County
Code, Chapter 30 with regard to individual sewage disposal systems. Specifically, Section 30-2-10
states:
A. The owner of any structure where people live, work or congregate shall insure that the
structure contains an adequate, convenient, sanitary toilet and sewage disposal system in good
working order. Under no condition shall sewage or effluent be permitted to be discharged upon
the surface of the ground, or into waters of the State, unless the sewage or effluent meets the
minimum requirements of this Chapter or the water quality standards of the Colorado Water
Quality Control Commission, whichever are applicable.
The Department is aware that, based on the size of the occupancy permitted through your pending USR
(LISR-1437)application, the septic system must be approved through the Site Approval process with the
Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment,Water Quality Control Division and a new
system installed. However, because of the continued delays with your USR application and the potential
health concerns from this graywater, the Department is requiring you to immediately find and connect the
graywater discharge into the existing septic system.
After this repair has been made, and before covering the pipe, you must call this office for an inspection.
Please call this office to schedule an inspection. If you have any questions, please feel free to call me at
(970)304-6415, extension 2211.
Sincerely,
Pam Smith

Desecho de Aguas Negras en terreno humedo
Estimados Moises y Javier:
Como ustedes ya saben, el dfa 8 de Agosto,2003 yo observe lo que aparentaba ser agua de
maquinas lavadoras desechada en terrenos hemedos en el area de derecho de paso del ferrocarril.
Esto es una violation al codigo del Condado Weld,capitulo 30 con referencia a sistemas
individuales de desecho de aguas sucias. Especificamente, Seccion 30-2-10 que indica:
El duefio de cualquier estructura donde vive,trabaja,o se congrega gente
debe asegurar que la estructura tenga sanitario adecuado y conveniente y
sistema de desecho de drenaje en buen funcionamiento. Bajo ninguna
condition es permitido que aguas sucias o de alcantarillado scan
desechadas en la tierra,o en agua del estado, a menos que el drenaje o
alcantarillado cumple con los requisitos minimos de este Capitulo o las
reglas de la calidad del agua de la Comisibn de Control y Calidad de Agua
del estado de Colorado,o cualquiera que sea aplicable.
El Departamento reconoce que basado en el tamaflo de ocupantes permitido por medio de su
aplicacion de(USR-1437)que esta pendiente,El sistema septico debe ser aprobado por medio
del Proceso del Sitio con el Departamento de Salud y Ambiente Publico del Estado de Colorado,
la Division de Control y Calidad de Agua y el nuevo sistema instalado. Sin embargo,por los
retrasos continuos con su aplicacion de USR y la preocupacion por el potencial a problemas de
salad con eats agua sucia, el Departamento le esta requiriendo a usted que encuentre y conecte el
desecho de agua sucia al sistema septico existente inmediatamente.

"Environmental Health Services and the Department of Planning Services conducted a site visit
on July 31, 2003. Staff observed a marshy area near the west property line and fence. The
marshy area is located in close proximity to the septic system leach field as indicated by the
applicant on the Statement of Existing for a septic system. Upon examination of this area, a
non-sewage odor was detected as well as what appeared to be soap suds. Environmental
Health Services has concerns that the "marshy water" may be caused by either the failing
septic leach field or from grey water from the laundry facility.
Environmental Health Services and the Department of Planning Services conducted an
additional site visit on August 8, 2003. The purpose of the site visit was to evaluate the source
of water that has allowed a stand of cattails to grow in the railroad easement. At the time of
inspection several washing machines were operating in the laundry building, and although there
was no obvious area where wash water was leaving the absorption field (no wet ground, etc), or
where it was entering the wetlands area (some absorption field sized rock, but no pipe), it
appeared that a portion of the water in the wetlands was coming from the laundry facilityas
evidenced by slightly soapy water. No sewage odor was detected at the time of inspection.
A further observation around the property found that the Hudson City Park lies north of Highway
52 and that between the park and the Rodriguez property is a small ditch that directs runoff into
the railroad easement. An old discharge pond lies in the southwest corner of the Rodriguez
property left over from the Dean Pickle food processor. This pond is lined (the liner is visible),
fenced and holding some water from recent storm events. My understanding is that the
processing plant was on the west side of the railroad tracks and brine water was pumped under
the railroad tracks to the pond. At the time of inspection, no discharge pipe could be located
that appeared to contribute to the source of any wetlands water (a capped, above-ground
discharge pipe was found between the pond and wetlands). Mr. Javier Rodriguez stated that
after a recent storm, a nearby property owner told him that water was overflowing from the east
wetlands area to the west side of the railroad tracks through a pipe.
The septic system for the migrant housing facility has failed in the past (Summer 2002) and
enforcement action was initiated at that time. The system has been preliminarily evaluated for
adequacy by a registered professional engineer and determined that the system is undersized
for the facility. Because of the size of the facility and number of people inhabiting it, any
repairs/modifications/enhancements must be conducted through the Colorado Department of
Public Health and Environment, Water Quality Control Division (WQCD), Site Application
regulations. Brad Simons, WQCD, gave a preliminary assessment of the septic system in his
August 8, 2003 comments and came to the same conclusion."
It is imperative that the following information be submitted in a timely manner.
1. Submit evidence that the Site Application process has been initiated with the Colorado
Department of Public Health and Environment, Water Quality Control Division.

twenty-four (24) persons or less.
2. The applicant shall submit evidence to the Department of Planning Services, from the
Colorado Division of Water Resources, demonstrating that the well is appropriately
permitted for the multi-family use. (Domestic Well Permit Number 21904-F and Public

COLORADO DATE: May 14, 2004
SUBJECT: USR-1437;Justification for Septic Field
Sizing
The well permit from 1976 states that the average annual appropriations from the well
shall not exceed 1.17 acre-feet.
This water allocation limits the number of occupants that can live at the facility.
Therefore, this same allocation will be used to size the septic system for the facility.
1 .17 acre-feet = 1044 gallons per day
24 people occupancy = 44 gpd consumption
The available gallons per day (1044) falls under the requirements for a Site Application
approval with the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment.
This per person consumption is adequate for the sanitation and hygiene needs for
migrant housing residents with modest accommodations.

Property of Moises Rodriguez
22185 SH 52,
Docket Number # 2004-14
The entry to 22185 SH 52 is often just mud or a dusty surface. The dust from traffic
into the site has a particularly negative impact on the assisted living community to the
south and adjacent to the roadway. The Town often has to treat the roadway for dust
due to complaints of neighboring seniors with health related issues.
Feb 25, 2003 May 14, 2004
April 13, 2004 May 14, 2004
II. Numerous reports of gunfire from within the site are a cause for concern of many
residents living within close proximity. There is a community park with ballfields and
playgrounds just south of this site. The stop sign shown below faces the west unit on
the Rodriguez property 250' away. To the west and behind the stop sign is a single
family residence.

Beer bottles and other debris that were often discarded along the entry drive adjacent
to the Towns water tanks by tenants or visitors to the site are now being picked up by
Mr. Rodriguez. The railroad area 150 feet west of this site is not as fortunate.

The septic field has previously failed and overflowed into a nearby drainage way. The

An evaporation pond on the property is littered with debris, may become stagnant and a
breeding area for mosquitos. Several junked aerators lie on the bottom. When the
pond level rises, the outfall pipe discharges water of unknown quality under the railroad
and across private property to the west. Eventually this water drains into the town and
along the northern edge of a trailer park.
