Subject: Hunt Brothers request for 1-3 rezoning
Mr. Madsen,
I would like to call to your attention that soon Hunt Brothers Properties, Inc, owners of Asphalt
Specialties, whose application for an asphalt batch plant along WC Road 27 was denied by the Weld
county commissioners in 2001, are requesting a zone change.
They would like to re-zone 67 acres approximately one quarter mile south of WC Road 6, directly south
of the former Horton feed lot, changing it from Agricultural to Industrial. Horton's was rezoned from 1-3
despite the rejections of the Fort Lupton Planning Commission.
The request for re-zoning for Hunt's would have attached to it the stipulation which would allow them to
put in any type of industrial facility without the input of local governments or residents of the area. This is
wrong! We do not wish to live in an industrial zone. This would not be a pleasant entrance to the City of
Fort Lupton. This would not be a pleasant view to the residents living adjacent to the property. And this
would highly increase the traffic area once again with large trucks, etc. that would not enhance the safety
of those traveling on Road 27 to and from the Brighton area. Many seniors use this road as their sole
means of connecting with the hospital, pharmacies and shopping located in the Brighton area in order to
by-pass the four-lane highway 85 and all the large trucks traveling that area.
I do not wish to stop someone from doing what they want with their land. But I do think that
consideration should be given to those around the land in regards to safety and health issues as well the
environment which they view. Wouldn't you agree? Please consider these issues when this request
comes before you.
Sincerely,
Sharon

Greeley, Colorado 80631
Dear Mr. Gathman:
I am writing on behalf of the Weld County School District Re-8 Board of Education. The
Board of Education would like to be on record as strongly opposing the proposed change
in zoning, from A to I-3, for the Hunt Brothers Properties Inc. on WCR 27 north of
WCR 6. At the regular meeting of January 12, 2004, the Board of Education passed a
resolution opposing the re-zoning. A copy of that resolution is enclosed
School District Re-8 opposes this change in zoning for several reasons. First, as a
property owner within five hundred feet of the property, the proposed change in zoning
will have a significant negative impact on the school building and four acres that the
School District owns. While the building is currently unoccupied, the District is in the
process of applying for historical grants to restore the building. Once restored there have
been several possible uses discussed, including an alternative school for students, staff
development center for employees, and offices for school employees. A property that is
zoned 1-3 and is directly across the street from a school property used for any of these
reasons is highly incompatible. The significant industrial usage allowed with a zoning of
1-3 would also provide a significant safety issue for school children, school employees,
and parents who may have reason to use the school building.
A second reason for opposing the zoning proposal has to do with immediate and
significant safety issues for children. There are several school buses that travel WCR27
at four times each day transporting children to and from school, including two special
routes at noon to transport children who are ages 4, 5, and 6 and in the kindergarten and
pre-school programs. Our buses have to use WCR 27 and WCR 6 to get to several
individual houses, but also to the Sierra Vista development, at the corner of WCR 6 and
Highway 85. An industrial zoning would no doubt increase the truck traffic on these
roads, probably very significantly. With our school buses having very few other options
tiss
A COMMUNITY WHICH BELIEVES EDUCATION IS A SHARED RESPONSIB ,
for transporting children in this area of our school district, a change in zoning would
increase the risk of bus accidents and risk to the safety of our children and bus drivers.
The School District feels strongly that the safety of our children, and protecting the future
use of the property is extremely important. Please reject this zoning request.
Sincerely, �*
Steve Morrison
Superintendent of Schools

Resolution Declaring the Board of Education's Opposition to the
Proposed Re-zoning of Property Adjacent to School District Property
WHEREAS, Hunt Brothers Properties Inc. has proposed a change in zoning of property
located East of and adjacent to WCR 27, approximately '/ mile north of WCR 6 from A,
Agricultural, to I-3, Industrial; and
WHEREAS, Weld County School District Re-8 owns a school site and school building
adjacent to the Hunt Brothers property; and
WHEREAS, an industrial zoning for this property would be incompatible with any
school use of the property that is adjacent to it; and
WHEREAS, an industrial zoning would present serious potential safety threats to
students and faculty that may use the school property at some point in the future, and
WHEREAS,the value of the property to the School District would be significantly
reduced by an industrial zoning of the adjacent property; and
WHEREAS, a large number of school children are transported to and from school on
WCR 27 and an industrial zoning would probably increase the amount of truck traffic and
cause safety concerns for children:
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Board of Education of Weld County School
District Re-8 that it opposes the re-zoning of the Hunt Brothers property and strongly
urges the Weld County Planning Commission to reject the proposal for re-zoning.
Adopted this 12`h day of January 2004.

Section 23-2-30.A
1 . Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan
OR changing conditions in the area warrant a
Change of Zone.
Section 22-2-140 of the comprehensive plan
encourages the location of industrial districts
where adequate services are currently
available or reasonably obtainable.
Section 22-2-150 encourages the
conversion of agricultural land to
industrial where adequate services are
currently available or reasonably
obtainable.
The parcel already has a well permit that
allows for commercial/industrial uses. The
health department will require a commercial
septic permit at the time a site plan review is
submitted.
As pointed out previously the area is
changing into an industrial area with several
rezonings to 1-3 being approved recently so
changing conditions warrant a change of
zone to 1-3 on this parcel.
r
2. The uses which would be allowed on the
property will be compatible with the
surrounding land uses.
This is an area that is in transition with a
mixture of industrial and agricultural land
uses. As there is not a Land Use map for this
part of Weld county which would direct where
specific land uses should occur, adjacent
land uses are directing the pattern of growth
that is occurring in this area. The map
depicting zoning in this area clearly shows
that 1-3 zoning is appropriate for this parcel.
3. Adequate water and sewer service can be
made available to serve the uses permitted
within the proposed zone district.
A commercial/industrial well permit is in place
and a septic permit will be required through
the site plan review process.
4. Addresses street and highway items.
Some requirements are currently addressed
in conditions of approval such as right-of-way
standards, possible intersection
improvements and final road plans. Other
items will be addressed at the time of site
plan review and can be collateralized at that
stage.
5. Addresses overlay districts, commercial
mineral deposits and soil conditions.
The site is not located in any overlay districts
and soils and mineral deposits are addressed
in the application materials.

RE: List of projects for Upper Front Range Transportation Plan
TRANSIT
The City of Fort Lupton has no projects planned for transit at this time.
RAIL
The need for economical and fast transit will make light-rail a necessity in the
near future. I have consulted the Fort Lupton Planning Commission and they
have stated that they wish for a Park/ride and future train depot to be on the
West side of the Union Pacific tracks and on the North side of Colorado
Highway 52. This 30011. by 300ft location is currently unoccupied except for a
vegetable stand. This site would require curb/gutter and sidewalks; adequate
turn lanes on Highway 52; storm drainage; water and sewer taps and
appropriate buildings and parking to its current needs. In the short-term this
site could be used as a park-and-ride and in the medium term it could be used
C.^ for both the park-and-ride and a train depot.
PG2 - UFR REPORT
HIGHWAY
LONG-RANGE
1. The City of Fort Lupton recommends that the intersection of WCR 8 and
U.S. Highway 85 be the future location of a major interchange and
overpass that will serve as a South entrance into our City.
2. The City of Fort Lupton recommends that the intersection of 14th street
and U.S. Highway 85 be the future location of a major interchange and
overpass to serve as the North entrance into Fort Lupton.
BOTH WCR 8 AND 14.5 HAVE BEEN RECOMMENDED
BY THE U.S. HIGHWAY 85 ACCESS STUDY TO BE THE
LOCATIONS OF THE NORTH AND SOUTH ENTRANCES
INTO THE CITY OF FORT LUPTON. THESE CHOICES
ARE CONSISTANT WITH THE LONG TERM PLAN OF
MAKING HWY 85 AN EXPRESSWAY FROM I-76 TO
NORTH OF FORT LUPTON.
C 3. Colorado FTighway 52 needs to be widened from the Union Pacific
Railroad tracks to U.S. 85. Due to incredible amounts of traffic currently
using this stretch of road, without widening, the turning movements
become more dangerous day by day. It will be very difficult to widen the
North side of the street, but the South side could be widened by one lane
width without removing current buildings. This project would require
obtaining right of way; new curb, gutter, and sidewalk; relocation of light
poles; signs; storm water drainage piping; and possibly the replacement of
water and sewer taps on the South side of the street,
SHORT-TERM
The following intersections are currently in need of extensive
improvements to make them safe:
1. Colorado Highway 52 and Denver Ave. — Due to the drastic increase in
traffic in Fort Lupton; this intersection is has become extremely
dangerous. It is the main intersection in town and almost everybody in the
City must pass intersect this location to enter or leave Fort Lupton.
PG3 - UFRREPORT
2. Colorado Highway 52 and Grand Ave. -
Due to its proximity to U.S. Highway 85, less then 100 ft. from the North
bound off ramp, the Grand Ave intersection has become very dangerous
due to congestion of all types of traffic converging on this area. This
situation has been looked at repeatedly by CDOT and it may need further
study. CDOT and the City have discussed in the past putting lights at U.S.
Highway 85 and State Highway 52. This project would require extensive
engineering to formulate the best option.
3. Colorado Highway 52 and Rollie Ave—
Due to the new subdivisions that have recently added homes and a new
school in the Northeast section of Fort Lupton, Rollie Ave.has become a
major congestion area. The situation will only get worse as Coyote Creek
and Chestnut Ridge subdivisions continue to build out. Coyote Creek will
add 750 new homes over 4 years and Chestnut Ridge will add 59 new
homes in 1999 and 2000. This project will require the widening of State
Highway 52, four-way lights with turn signals, and adequate striping.
Please give me a call at(303)857-6694 if you have any questions or need
r, tifrcation on any of the projects.
