The applicant has complied with all the application requirements listed in Section 27-5-30 of the Weld County Code. 2. The request is in conformance with Section 27-6-120.D as follows: a. Section 27-6-120.D.5.a --The proposal is consistent with any intergovernmental agreement in effect influencing the PUD and Chapters 19 (Coordinated Planning Agreements), Chapter 22 (Comprehensive Plan), Chapter 23 (Zoning), Chapter 24 (Subdivision) and Chapter 27 (Planned Unit Development) of the Weld County Code. The proposed use is for a residential home and an antique store with three storage units, two (2) are for personal use and one (1) is for commercial support. The Planned Unit Development allows for a combination of uses to occur on a site. 2003-0427 PL1650 CHANGE OF ZONE #1026 FROM R-1 (RESIDENTIAL) TO PUD WITH E (ESTATE) AND C-1 (NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL) ZONE USES - CHARLES AND ALICE GREENMAN PAGE 2 1) Section 22-2-190.D.2.b (PUD.Policy 4.2) states, "A planned unit development which includes a residential use should provide common open space free of buildings, streets, driveways or parking areas. The common open space should be designed and located to be easily accessible to all the residents of the project and usable for open space and recreation...." As all improvements are existing, the applicant is proposing limited open space use at this time. Requiring a great deal of open space will detract from the residential character of the area. The site provides for pasture and open lands behind the improvements. Three thousand (3,000) square feet of the site is dedicated to the shop, residential structure, the one storage shed which represents approximately one-half acre of building area, and the remainder of the site is in lawns and pasture area. 2) Section 22-3-50.B.1 (P.Goal 2) states, "Require adequate facilities and services to assure the health, safety and general welfare of the present and future residents of the County." The site has been designed to address the health and safety of future users. Visitors to the site will utilize the restroom facilities within the home, and the Weld County Department of Public Health and Environment has determined that the site is equipped with adequate restroom facilities. Potable water will be provided by the Longs Peak Water District. Fire protection for the site is provided by the Mount View Fire Protection District. b. Section 27-6-120.D.5.b -- The uses which will be allowed in the proposed Planned Unit Development will conform with the Performance Standards of the Planned Unit Development Zone District contained in Chapter 27, Article II, of the Weld County Code. 1) Section 27-2-20, Access standards —Access to the parcel is off of Weld County Road 1 and the access is existing. There are presently two accesses to the site and only one is a permitted access. 2) Section 27-2-30, Buffering and screening —There are presently large trees on the parcel which provide for a historic buffer between this parcel and adjoining parcels. All outside storage will be required to be adequately screened. All parking will be required to be screened from adjoining properties. No outdoor uses are proposed with this use. c. Section 27-6-120.D.5.c--The uses which will be permitted shall be compatible with the existing or future development of the surrounding area as permitted by the existing Zoning, and with the future development as projected by Chapter 22 of the Weld County Code or master plans of 2003-0427 PL1650 CHANGE OF ZONE#1026 FROM R-1 (RESIDENTIAL) TO PUD WITH E (ESTATE) AND C-1 (NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL) ZONE USES - CHARLES AND ALICE GREENMAN PAGE 3 affected municipalities. The proposed use is for an antique store to be operated by the inhabitants of the principle dwelling. The existing surrounding area is zoned both agricultural and residential and the intensity of this use, with the Conditions of Approval, will be compatible. The application was applied for prior to the Longmont Weld County Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) going into effect, therefore, the provisions of this IGA do not apply to this use. d. Section 27-6-120.D.5.d --The PUD Zone District shall be serviced by an adequate water supply and sewage disposal system in compliance with the Performance Standards in Chapter 27, Article II, of the Weld County Code. Water to the site is provided by the Longs Peak Water District and sanitary waste is provided by an existing septic system. The Weld County Department of Public Health has reviewed these provisions, and found them to be adequate to meet the needs of the site. e. Section 27-6-120.D.5.e -- Street or highway facilities providing access to the property are adequate in functional classification, width, and structural capacity to meet the traffic requirements of the uses of the proposed Planned Unit Development Zone District. Primary access to the site is off of Weld County Road 1, which is defined as a major arterial, and as such has a 140-foot right-of-way. The minimum setback in the Commercial (C-1) Zone District is 25 feet. At full build out both the existing home and shop will likely not meet setbacks and will be considered nonconforming uses. f. Section 27-6-120.D.5.f-- No off site improvements agreement is proposed at this time. The applicant is required to pay the County Wide Transportation Fee for the commercial aspects of this application. g. Section 27-6-120.D.5.g -- There has been compliance with the applicable requirements contained in Chapter 23 of the Weld County Code regarding overlay districts, commercial mineral deposits, and soil conditions on the subject site. The site is not influenced by any known commercial mineral deposits or special soil conditions. The Colorado Geological Survey declined to review this application as all the structures are existing. h. Section 27-6-120.D.5.h -- Consistency exists between the proposed zone district(s), uses, the specific or conceptual development guide. The applicants are proposing two uses, commercial and estate, to bring the property into compliance. Both of these uses are consistent with the specific guide. 2003-0427 PL1650 CHANGE OF ZONE #1026 FROM R-1 (RESIDENTIAL) TO PUD WITH E (ESTATE) AND C-1 (NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL) ZONE USES - CHARLES AND ALICE GREENMAN PAGE 4 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of County Commissioners of Weld County, Colorado, that the application of Charles and Alice Greenman for a Change of Zone from R-1 (Residential) to a PUD (Planned Unit Development) Zone District with E (Estate) and C-1 (Neighborhood Commercial) zone uses on the above referenced parcel of land be, and hereby is, granted subject to the following conditions: 1.
