Dear Ms. Lockman:
I have reviewed the submitted material pertaining to the site specific development plan and
special review permit for a shooting range located east and adjacent to Weld County Road 3;
mile north of Garfield Road (Case Number: AmUSR-1031). The property named is within the
boundaries of the Mountain View Fire Protection District and receives service from the District.
The Fire District does not object to the request to build the building additional shooting ranges
and buildings provided the requirements of the Fire District can be met. Based on my review, I
have the following comments regarding the project:
• Buildings shall be designed and constructed in accordance with the provisions of the Uniform
Fire Code, as ratified by the Weld County Commissioners, and all other applicable codes and
ordinances, as enforced by Weld County.
• In accordance with Section 903.2 of the Uniform Fire Code, an approved water supply
capable of supplying the required fire flow for fire protection shall be provided to all
premises upon which facilities, buildings or portions of buildings are hereafter constructed or
moved into or within the jurisdiction. A minimum fire flow of 1,500 gallons of water per
minute, measured at a residual pressure of 20 pounds per square inch (p.s.i.), is required and
may require more depending on the building size and type of construction as per Appendix
III-A of the Uniform Fire Code.
All hydrants used to meet the required water supply shall be within 450 feet of buildings as
measured along approved fire apparatus access routes around the exterior of the building.
The materials submitted indicated that water supply was not needed; however, this is not the
case. Before final approval may be given for the construction of any new buildings, a site
utility plan must be submitted to the Fire District for review and approval. The site plan must
show the location of proposed fire hydrants, the size of water mains, and available fire flows
to the fire hydrant(s).
• Fire apparatus access will need to be provided to the buildings so that fire apparatus may
reach to within 150 feet of all portions of the buildings. Apparatus access roads shall be a
minimum of 20 feet in width and be designed and maintained to support the imposed loads of
fire apparatus(60,000 pounds). Roads must have a surface that provides all-weather driving

capabilities and be free from obstructions which includes locked gates, unless otherwise
approved. Access roads will need to be constructed and approved before building permits are
issued. It does not appear that adequate access has been provided to the site.
• Building construction plans must be submitted to the Fire District for review and approval
before building permits may be issued.
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.

Greeley, CO 80631
RE: GREEN MILL SPORTSMAN CLUB Case# AmUSR-1031
Green Mill Sportsman Club is to close to existing residences for the Town of Erie to support any
expansion of the current facility. That being said.,the Town Administrator and Community
Development Department reviewed the above referral with Town Engineer Wendi Palmer. Our
comments/concerns follow.
USE BY SPECIAL REVIEW QUESTIONNAIRE
4. Surrounding Land Uses—The Town of Erie Comprehensive Plan shows the property to
the north as Low Density Residential. The property is actually zoned Rural Preservation
—3 (RP-3), an open space zone district that allows I dwelling unit/5 acres. There are
currently no plans for development for the site.
5c. Hours of Operation—Night Training of Officers—should be completed by 9 pm and
r•-- neighboring homeowners in Grand View Subdivision should receive 48 hours notice before
night training sessions are undertaken.
5e. Animals on Site—Will police dogs be used in training exercises?
5g. Fire Protection—the new Mountain View Fire Station has been constructed and is
occupied by the Fire District.
5h. Water Source - Where will water for future restrooms come from?
8. Storm Water Drainage—detention ponds will be needed for parking and building sites.
PLAT COMMENTS:
Proposed berm will block the natural drainage path.
Applicant should determine the impact to drainage and water levels
New road access will bring west bound traffic directly into the rear of homes. Current
access is south of platted lots.
New road appears to become a drainage channel into existing platted lots—why not use
well access road that the proposed road feeds into for access.
A grading permit will be required from Weld County Health Department is more and one
(1) acre is disturbed.

Q
C FROM: Donald Carroll, Engineering Administrator .� -
COLORADO SUBJECT: AmUSR-1031, Green Mill Sportsman Club
The Weld County Public Works Department has reviewed this proposal; this project falls primarily under the
purview of the Use by Use by Special Review Standards, Weld County Code, Chapter 23, Article II, Division 4,
Section 23. Our comments and requirements are as follows:
COMMENTS:
Section Line: (WCR 3) This property borders the west section line of Section 20, Ti N, R68W. In researching
the Weld County rights-of-way, I found no County-set-aside right-of-way for either Section 19 or Section 20 at
this location.
WCR 8: The Town of Erie has jurisdiction over WCR 8 at this location. Please call the appropriate person to
verify the access requirements that may be necessary to obtain or upgrade the access point.
..EQUIREMENTS:
Access: Verification from the Town of Erie that the applicant has contacted the town to verify access at this
location.
Right-of-Way/Easement: The applicant shall indicate on the plat drawing the type of right-of-way/easement
and include whether it is dedicated, private or deeded to provide adequate access to the parcel. The section
line accesses are considered private lanes with no County maintenance.
County Right-of-Way: In researching Weld County road records, it is indicated that there is not any County
right-of-way between Sections 19 and 20, T1 N, R68W at this location.
Adjacent properties along the section line belonging to J. Dearmin LLC, KB Homes, and the City of Erie.
Circulation and Parking: The circulation and parking appear to be adequate for the facility.
Off-Street Parking: Off-street parking spaces including access drives shall be surfaced with gravel, asphalt,
concrete or the equivalent and shall be graded to prevent drainage problems.
Storm Water Drainage: The historical flow patterns and run-off amounts will be maintained on site in such a
manner that 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.

TO: SHERI LOCKMAN,PLANNING SERVICES
FROM: CHARLOTTE DAVIS, ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH (3)
ISU' CT 'WSb031 GREEN MILL SPORTSMAN CLUB
C. DATE: 04/09/2003
COLORADO CC:
Environmental Health Services (EHS) has reviewed this proposal for a shooting range.
We have several concerns about the proposal presented.
The application materials state that potable water is not needed. The application
further states that approximately 20 individuals will be using the site at one time and
that the operation will be open 8 am to dusk. In addition, it is our understanding the
proposed use is located within close proximity to community water. The department
believes a permanent water supply is important because handwashing is the single
most important step to help stop the spread of disease and in this case, inadvertent
lead poisoning.
The other concern that is not addressed in this application is the negative
environmental and health effects associated with the use of lead shot and bullets at
outdoor shooting ranges. The National Rifle Association (NRA) and the National
Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) encourages outdoor shooting ranges to
implement a lead management program using Best Management Practices (BMPs) to
reduce the environmental and health risks associated with lead deposition. As such,
we are recommending this facility develop and operate in accordance with a lead
management program.

Outdoor Shooting Ranges (www.epa.gov/region2/waste/leadshot).

We recommend that the following requirements be incorporated into the permit as
development standards:
