I hereby certify that pursuant to a notice dated May 2, 2003, and duly published May 8, 2003, in the
South Weld Sun, a public hearing was conducted to consider the request of Weld County for a Site
Specific Development Plan and Use by Special Review Permit#1424 for a Business permitted as
a Use by Right or an Accessory Use in the Commercial Zone District (food warehouse) in the
A (Agricultural) Zone District. Lee Morrison, Assistant County Attorney, made this a matter of
record. Sheri Lockman, Department of Planning Services, presented a brief summary of the
proposal and entered the favorable recommendation of the Planning Commission into the record
as written. Ms. Lockman stated the site is located in the Weld County Business Park, with the Weld
County Training Center east of the site. She stated no correspondence has been received, and
this project is being done in conjunction with the City of Greeley and Weld County. She stated the
lot will be annexed into Greeley when completed, and Greeley will serve the site with sewer and
water. She also stated there will be shared parking with the Weld County Training Center. Char
Davis, Department of Public Health and Environment was present, and Don Carroll, Department
of Public Works stated staff is comfortable with the proposal.
Donald Warden, Director of Finance and Administration, represented the applicant and stated this
project has been in the works for approximately 18 months between the City of Greeley and Weld
County. He stated the County's contribution is a donation of the property, $300,000 for
construction, plus administering a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), in the amount
of$200,000. Mr. Warden explained the CDBG is the reason for maneuvering the annexation to the
City of Greeley, since the refrigeration unit has to be installed while the property is still in Weld
County. After installation, the property will be annexed into the City of Greeley, and they will finish
the project. Mr. Warden stated Greeley has agreed to the annexation and has reviewed the
proposal,which does met its standards. Responding to Commissioner Masden, Mr.Warden stated

the entire project is at a cost of $2.5 million, and one-half is being contributed by public entities.
He stated the storage warehouse will be 35,000 square feet. Responding to Chair Long, Mr.
Warden stated the six acres used by the Sheriffs Posse will remain intact; however, the Board did
not set aside specific acreage for that use.
Leona Martin, Executive Director of the Weld Food Bank, stated this project has been needed for
quite some time, and Weld County,especially Mr.Warden, has been instrumental in accomplishing
the project. She said half the funds have been raised, and on June 5, 2003, the public phase of
the campaign will be announced. Responding to Commissioner Masden, Ms. Martin stated the
warehouse should be completed in 2004, with the entire complex being completed in 2005. No
public testimony was offered concerning this matter. Responding to Chair Long, Mr.Warden stated
the applicant agrees with the Conditions of Approval and Development Standards.
Commissioner Geile moved to approve the request of Weld County, on behalf of the Weld Food
Bank, for a Site Specific Development Plan and Use by Special Review Permit #1424 for a
Business permitted as a Use by Right or an Accessory Use in the Commercial Zone District (food
warehouse) in the A (Agricultural) Zone District, based on the recommendations of the Planning
