PLANNING OLD BUSINESS:
SECOND READING OF CODE ORDINANCE#2001-6, IN THE MATTER OF ENACTING CHAPTER 21,
AREAS OF ACTIVITIES OF STATE INTEREST (§ 1041 REGULATIONS), OF THE WELD COUNTY
CODE (CON'T FROM 10/01/2001): Bruce Barker, County Attorney, stated the second reading was
continued one week to allow time for additional comments from representatives of the industry. He stated
both Jon Beyer of Tri-State Generation and Transmission Association, Inc., and Rick Thompson from
Excel Energy Service,have provided comments. Mr. Barker reviewed Mr. Beyer's letter and explained how
each of the suggestions were incorporated, how they were modified, or why they were not incorporated.
Concerning 21-3-330 B.3.d.ii, Mr. Barker stated he is not certain it would be wise to include this and the
Board may want to make an exception. Mr. Beyer said he brought it up for consideration of Board, and
Mr. Thompson explained this would expand the project area by one-half mile,which does not really make
sense, although he could live with it. Mr. Thompson said the project area must be defined; however, this
requires a look at one-half mile outside the project area. Mr. Barker suggested adding"200 feet for linear
facilities" and indicated there is a distinction between the vicinity map which provides an area view, and
the plot plan which shows the area specifically plotted. After further discussion, it was determined "1,000
feet for linear facilities" should be added.
Mr. Barker explained he had incorporated most of Mr. Thompson's comments, and why he did not include
a few changes. He did indicate that on page 24 of Mr. Thompson's letter, a lot of changes were not made
because it is not the job of the Board of County Commissioners to ensure those items are taken care of,
rather, the burden of proof is on the applicant to show they have been done. There was no public
testimony given. Commissioner Vaad moved to approve Code Ordinance#2001-6 on second reading with
the changes as recommended by staff. Commissioner Masden seconded the motion, which carried
unanimously.

final site investigation and found no distress or repairs needed to the asphalt,therefore, he concurred with
the recommendation for release. He stated the roads will be privately maintained. Commissioner Vaad
