The following business was transacted:
I hereby certify that pursuant to a notice dated August 22, 1983, and duly
published August 25, 1983, in the La Salle Leader, a public hearing was held
for the purpose of considering the application for a Use by Special Review,
softball and ice skating facility, for Thurman Hays, et al. Russ Anson,
Assistant County Attorney, read this proposal into the record. Rod Allison,
representing the Planning Department, read the favorable rewiunendation of
the Planning Commission into the record. Mr. Allison also read the recommended
conditions into the record. He said he had received a phone call from Mr.
Park, president of Lower Latham Ditch Co. , requesting that there shall be nc
parking of vehicles associated with the proposed operation on old Highway 85.
Mr. Allison said if this recommendation is accepted, it could be added to
Development Standard #3. Don Coy, representing the applicant,' came forward
and gave a short presentation explaining what is being planned at this
facility if this request is approved. Also appearing for the applicant
• were Steve Case, secretary of the Weld County Softball Association,. and
Clarence Gumby, area director for Northeastern Colorado U.S. Softball
Association. Appearing in opposition to this proposal was Mr. Robert Moody.
Mr. Gary, representing Calvin Petroleum Corp. , said that his company is
not opposing this proposal, but because they will be drilling within the
next 30 to 45 days, they are requesting that this matter be held off for
a while. He said their concern is that if they have equipment in that
area, they will need to have some document which will protect them and
not hold them liable for any accidents and also if any damages occur his
company will not be held responsible. Mr. Case said this did not pose
a problem to them. After discussion, Commissioner Johnson moved to approve
this Use by Special Review with the conditions as recommended, with Operation
Standard #3 being revised to include that no parking be allowed on old
Highway 85. Commissioner N. Carlson seconded the motion. Commissioner
Johnson added that it should be indicated in the record that the applicant
has full knowledge of the proposed drilling by Calvin. Petroleum Corp.
After further discussion, the motion carried unanimously.

to Road 52 and then egress onto Road 52 in both directions to the West, but
primarily to the East and then onto State Highway 85.
Type of use will be recreational for the purpose of fastpitch softball league,
a church softball league and any special softball leagues where the municipal pro-
grams are not covering such areas. We would also like to have t
he to use a softball field in the winterfor ice skating on 4" to 8" oflicceebf rtso e

B. Proximity of the proposed use to residential structures:
The proximity of softball facility to residential structures is approxi-
mately 200 feet North and East fran a residential structure and approximately
700 feet fran any other residential structures.
C. The number of shifts to be worked and the maximum number of employees:
The number of employees will be approximately throe, the number of shifts to
be worked will be day time only and the hours of those employees would be
approximately 1 to 4 hours per day for the purpose of making the fields ready
for playing.
D. The maximum natter of users, patrons, members, buyers or employees::
the maximum number of users will be 16 teams per night, which could be as many
as 12 ball players, making 192 players per night and there would also be 8
umpires, 4 score keepers, and 2 to 4 concession stand workers. There would
also be tournaments operated on the weekends and the normal number of players
for a weekend tournament would be 384 ball players and corresponding umpires,
score keepers, concession stand workers and spectators. We will not have lights
during the first season or two, therefore we will be playing games at 6:00
and at 7:15. The cars of players will arrive between 5:30 and 6:00 for the
first game, the cars and players will arrive between 6:45 and 7:15 for the
playing of the second game and at approximately 7:20 to 7:45 the players of
the first game will be exiting. Then at approximated 8:30 to 9:00 the fields
will empty. After lights are added to the facility we will be able to play 3
to 4 games per night per field and the scheduling will adjust but under the
same perameters, of course.

Dear Mr. Allison:
We have reviewed the Hays , Hays, and Neilson application for a Special Review
Permit, and we ask for your consideration of the following comments.
1 . We have a serious concern about the probability of softballs being hit
onto U.S. Highway 85 itself, or even onto the right of way. This would
pose an obvious hazard to motorists as well as persons retrieving balls
in the right of way. Unless a means can be found to ensure that balls
will not be hit onto the right of way, we cannot support this proposed
use adjacent to the highway.
2. In addition, it appears that a considerable amount of traffic would impact
the intersection of U.S. 85 and County Road 394. Although turn lanes
exist at this intersection, they may need to be upgraded to accommodate
the heavy evening traffic volumes. Lengthening of the median left-turn
lane and provision of a full-width right-turn deceleration lane would
probably be warranted due to traffic generated by the softball complex.
Since this is an existing public intersection, we ask the County to require
these improvements as condition of the Special Review Permit. Any con-
struction work on U.S. 85 would need to be reviewed and approved by this
office.
3. It is not clear whether sufficient parking is provided at this complex
for players , spectators, and support personnel . Parking is not permitted
on the highway right of way; therefore, on-site parking should be pro-
vided for the maximum number of anticipated vehicles.

Mr. Rod Allison

Welc. County Complex
915 Tenth Street
Greeley, CO 80631
Dear Mr. Allison:
The Board of Directors of the Lower Latham Ditch Co. have
some serious concerns we wish to bring to your attention from
the recent county softball complex application submitted by
Hays, Hays, and Neilson.
First, the site is within 300 feet of our headgate works
on the river. We have had, and I suppose will continue to
have, a problem of unauthorized persons in this area. Our
biggest objection with this proposal is the problems we
forsee in keeping people away from our headgates. By having
a gathering place for so many people so close, it is inev-
itable there will be a few that will abuse this private property.
We have had problems with trash, vandalism, and tampering by
trespassers not to mention the fact that these structures
and the moving water are very dangerous. If a person fell
into the water, it is almost certain they would be drawn
through one of these structures. The force and speed of the
water and the back wash currents behind these headgates are
extremely dangerous. If this proposal is accepted, we would
insist to the very finest detail that the ditch company and
all stockholders of the company not be held responsible in
a____yn _way for any one trespassing.
Second, the application map shows that vehicles departing
the area would be routed onto old Highway 85 on the west,
then proceed down to the Godfrey Bottom road and finally to
existing Highway 85 . If there are the numbers of people
utilizing this facility that the application suggests, there
will be a traffic jam of hour duration. Many times, I have
had to wait on the Godfrey Bottom road for 3 to 5 minutes
before a left-hand turn could be made onto Highway 85. If
each vehicle is detained, it would back cars up and be a
serious problem. Of course, turning to the right is usually

not too difficult. Our major objection here is that the ditch
superintendent might not even be able to get to or return from
our headgates whenever the softball field is in use. We would
much prefer the entrance and exit to the field be made from
the south side along the Godfrey Bottom road. This would
at least keep old Highway 85 uncongested. At times of flooding,
we have had to move large equipment into our property on a
moments notice to remove trash, repair the dike, etc. A
"Valley Highway" traffic jam would be most inconvenient and
could possibley result in losing a very expensive structure.
Third, we would insist that if this application is approved,
a perimeter fence be installed as the very first step in con-
struction, rather than 3 or 4 years later as the building
plans show. Again, since our ditch borders this site on the north ,
this fence would at least help in keeping people out of our
property and the problems we outlined above. We would strongly
recommend that your planning staff specify a fence of adequate
material and height to accomplish this. Also, we would have
to have the fence installed far enough away from the ditch so
as to allow for any maintenance of the ditch on our part.
These comments represent our Board's concerns as to the
Lower Latham Ditch Co. As far as the participants that would
use this facility, I might add the mosquitos in the area are
terrible simply because it is so close to water. Also, the
water table is very high and would appear that there could be
some problems with septic-tank facilities called for in the
future development.
We appreciate you requesting our comments for this appli-
cation. If the planning staff has a public meeting to further
discuss this matter , I would appreciate you notifying The
Lower Latham Ditch Co. at the address below or contact our
secretary, Ms. Sandra Vannest, at 356-4052. One or two of our
Directors would like to attend.
Sincerely,
LOWER LATHAM DITCH_-GO�..

Dear Mr. Allison :
We have reviewed the revised plan of the Hays, Hays, and Neilson Applica-
tion for a Special Review Permit. As indicated in our July 14, 1983„ letter
to you, we have concerns about softballs being hit onto the U.S. Highway 85
right of way, traffic impacts, and the provision of adequate on-site parking.
The revised plan sufficiently addresses the first and last of these concerns ,
but we again point out the need for a standard right-turn deceleration lane
at County Road 394. Improvement of the existing median left-turn lane may
not be warranted due to traffic generated by this proposal if the majority
of traffic is oriented toward Greeley.
We appreciate the opportunity to comment on this proposal . Let us know
if you need any further information.
Very truly yours ,
