CASE NUMBER: SCH-17
NAME: Siegrist Companies/Riverdance PUD
REQUEST: A substantial Change Hearing on a parcel of land which previously had a land use
application denied.
LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Parts of Sections 35 and 36: Township 3 North, Range 68 West of the 6`"
P.M., Weld County, Colorado.
LOCATION: East of and adjacent to 1-25 Frontage Road; south of and adjacent to WCR 28
The Board of County Commissioners denied the Change of Zone on February 16, 2000. Concerns raised
during the review of the Change of Zone are included in the attached Board of County Commissioners
resolution.
The Planning Commission shall consider whether the applicant has:
1. Demonstrated that a substantial change in the facts or circumstances have occurred subsequent
to the board's decision or
2. There was newly discovered evidence that the applicant could not have discovered with diligent
effort at the time of the original application
THE DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING SERVICES' STAFF RECOMMENDS THAT THE APPLICANT HAS
FAILED TO DEMONSTRATE THATA SUBSTANTIAL CHANGE HAS OCCURRED FOR THE FOLLOWING
REASONS:
The applicant has submitted six components to represent a substantial change. These six components
along with redesign responses related to issues raised at the time of the zoning hearing do not in the opinion
of the Department of Planning Services staff substantiate a recommendation for substantial change for the
following reasons:
1. As stated by the applicant, a requirement by Weld County for a roadway, classified as an arterial
(4-lane with a painted median), and its connecting link to the relocated CDOT service road, through
the property, thus requiring construction of a major roadway by the property owner in a location
undesignated in the original application. The required roadway will necessitate a redesign of a
significant part of the proposed development area to match the new road location and serve the
development in an effective manner. The required roadway was not a condition of review and
approval in the original application.
This issue does not point to a substantial change, rather it demonstrates the applicants attempt at
addressing a concern raised by the Board of County Commissioners concerning adequate public
services and facilities in the Board of County Commissioners resolution, number 2.C., and specific
transportation concerns in 2.C.(2)of the resolution. Final design of a roadway is an issue generally
determined at the final plat stage, and therefore, the applicants did not have the opportunity to
negotiate final design issues for this subdivision.
2. As stated by the applicant, the creation of a revised phased development plan to coincide with the
revised roadway plan and other newly installed sanitary sewers and proposed water service.
The original application contained a similar phased development plan (Exhibit A) involving nine
filings instead of the proposed six filings. Neither phase development plan specifically states a time
of completion, and both reference... "dependence on market conditions." A change in the number
of filings does not ensure a substantial change.
EXHIBIT
1
3. As stated by the applicant, a change of use of adjacent Weld County land along WCR 24-1/2 near
the Colorado Department of Transportation frontage road from agricultural to administrative office
use.
Weld County's reclamation plan for the County property adjacent to this proposal has historically
included a reclamation plan to reclaim this site in "much the same way as the Barbour Ponds".
(Exhibit B). The mining permit filed by Weld County with the State of Colorado on January 1993,
lists the reclaimed use of this site as recreational with twenty acres being used for commercial and
or housing. The fact that Weld County is working toward development of an Administrative Office
on this site is consistent with this plan, and does not present newly discovered evidence.
4. As stated by the applicant, the filing of applications to Weld County by neighboring properties,
namely the St. Acacius Subdivision and the Douthit Subdivision, both North and Northwest of
Riverdance, for change of zone and development
St. Acacius Subdivision Sketch Plan 7-3-99
Douthit Subdivision Sketch Plan 4-18-00
Hamlin (Inclusion into the Mixed Use Development Area) 5-4-98 (Case Ordinance 191C)
None of the above referenced cases have proceeded beyond the sketch plan stage, nor has the
Department of Planning Services staff received applications to change the zone from agricultural
to residential on any of the above referenced cases. Therefore, it is the opinion of the Department
of Planning Services staff that the zone district of these identified land uses has not been changed.
5. As stated by the applicant, the completion of a St. Vrain Sanitation District sanitary sewer trunk line
through Riverdance that can readily serve the entire development, as well as an approval permit by
the Colorado Department of Health forenlargement of its treatment system from 0.5 mgd to 4.5 mgd.
The District has given assurance of its plan to expand capacity of the waste water treatment plant
in the immediate future with design under way currently.
At the time of the original Change of Zone application, the discussion of the St. Vrain Sanitation
District trunk line was of public record. According to the St Vrain Sanitation District, the north line
as referenced in the proposed subdivision has been in the master plan since the district's inception.
The subdivision site has been in the service area, and service availability has been a condition of
financial contribution of upgrades to the existing system. (Exhibit C). The fact that this line is now
ready to serve the property cannot be considered either newly discovered evidence or a substantial
change in facts.
6. As stated by the applicant, a change of zone in significant areas of development, primarily in the
western section along the new arterial roadway, from residential and commercial types to
commercial, office, and light industrial, thus reducing the population density.
After review by the Department of Planning Service's staff,it appears the proposed changes in the
site design only influences approximately 54 acres of the total site. These changes can be divided
into five situations:
1. The Town home and patio home sites as proposed on the original application are converted
to light industrial;
2. Thirty-two (22) Suburban lots are converted to light industrial;
3. Twenty-four (24) Lake Front Lots are converted to office space with a corresponding
decrease in open space;
4. The 20.7 acre commercial lot is reduced to 13.3 acres, relocated and dissected by the
redesigned roadway; and
2
5. The County road is upgraded to an arterial roadway design.

TOTAL 656 LOTS
A minor decrease in residential uses coupled with a redistribution of commercial uses,and the introduction
of light industrial may change the overall distribution of uses; however, the functionality of the site
continues to remain consistent with those uses proposed at the time of Change of Zone. The Department
of Planning Services finds no compelling evidence to suggest that the information presented before you
is substantially different than the information presented before this Board on August 17, 1999. Therefore,
it is the opinion of the Department fo Planning Service's staff that the applicant has not demonstrated that
a substantial change in the facts and circumstances in the land-use application in the surrounding land
uses or in applicable provisions of the law has occurred.

EXHIBIT E - Reclamation Plan
a. The operator proposes to reclaim the area through
development of water impoundments with seeded
dikes and picnic area for recreational purposes.
The reclamation will consist of impoundment ponds
generally within the natural ground water levels
of the immediate area. Because the bottom of the
excavations are well below normal ground water,
the future use is development of ponds to be used
for fishing at such time as stocking is accom-
plished. Provision will be made in reclamation
for access to all locations along roadways on the
dikes as required. All finished slopes from five
feet above to ten feet below the expected water
line will have a slope no steeper than 3
horizontal to 1 vertical, and will be compacted
using standard heavy duty earthmoving equipment .
The majority of the area will be reclaimed for
recreational purposes. Phases I and III approxi-
mately twenty acres, will be reclaimed for
commercial and/or housing development by using
overburden from the remaining one hundred acres
to fill the excavated area to the required
elevations .
b. The ponded areas can be reclaimed and used in
much the same way as the Barbour Ponds along
the west side of Interstate 25 . The reclaimed
area used as a recreational area will fit well
into the agricultural zoning of the local land
use plan according to local zoning regulations.
c. The affected lands will be reclaimed for recrea-
tional purposes within five years after each phase
of reclamation has commenced except the south
twenty acres for purpose stated previously. Use
of the reclaimed land shall be in accordance with
the limited liability landowner liability law
contained in Article 41 of Title 33 , C.R.S.
1973.
c-i . Grading - all grading will be accomplished when
feasible, approximately one year after the min-
ing process in a particular
phase
iScompleted,
using heavy earthmoving equipment.
side the site will be protected from erosion or
siltation as a result of the operations . No
refuse and acid forming or toxic materials that
might create water pollution are anticipated to
result from the proposed mining operation. No
drill or auger holes , or shafts will result from
the mining operation.
c-2 . Water - the operator intends to comply with
applicable Colorado water laws and regulations
governing water rights and with all applicable
Federal and Colorado laws and regulations govern-
ing water quality and dredge and fill require-
ments where applicable. (See Exhibit G)
See also USDA Soil Conservation Service information marked Exhibit AA regarding ground
water, soils, and grasses in the area.
c-3 . Wildlife - the Colorado Division of Wildlife is
currently reviewing the Pre-Mining Plan. A copy
of their review is included as Exhibit H. No
conflicts with wildlife are anticipated with
regard to reclamation.
c-4. Topsoiling - topsoil is limited and it is generally
of poor quality as shown on Exhibit AA; however,
the limited topsoil will be stockpiled above the
100 year floodprone district, approximate eleva-
tion 4 ,833 and will be spread uniformly in depths
of approximately 8 inches on the dike areas
above the water line of the impoundments and in
other locations that might have been disturbed
during the mining operations to provide a support
for vegetation. Topsoil will be maintained in a
useable condition by creating vegetative cover if
prolonged storage is required.
c-5 . Revegetation - revegetation will occur only on
the dikes above the water line of the impoundment
and on the locations disturbed by the mining oper-
ation. It will consist of seeding of grasses
compatible to the area as described by Soil Con-
servation Service in Exhibit AA or Seeding as
ssfurther
rs
recommended by that agency. g
and application rates will be as recommended by
Soil Conservation Service. Trees or shrub areas
that are adaptable to the region will be
included. Plantings will be in accordance with
Soil Conservation Service recommendations as
areas are completed for reclamation.
d. See Exhibit E, paragraph C-4 , and Reclamation Plan
Map, Exhibit F.
e. Timetables - Phase I - 22 acres . Phase I will
begin to be mined within 6 years of approval
from the Mined Land Reclamation Board. This
area will require approximately 4.7 years to be
mined. Reclamation of Phase I will begin
approximately January, 2007 .
Phase II - 30 acres. The overburden will be used
to reclaim Phase I. Phase II will be mined for a
period of about 4.5 years .
Phase III - 22 acres. This area will be mined
for a period of 4 . 5 years and the south portion
will be reclaimed for development as shown on
Exhibit F.
Phase IV - 53 acres . This area will be mined for
a period of 10 years . The overburden will be
used to reclaim Phase III as shown on Exhibit D.
Reclamation of all mining phases will be
completed within the five-year limit allowed by
Colorado Mined Land, Act 34-32-101 , CRS 1973 as
amended, revised 1988 Legislative session. Grass
planting will occur according to recommendations
and schedules of the Soil Conservation Service.

Dear Mr. Siegrist; l
This letter is in response to your request for an updated
water service commitment for up to 531 residential and commercial
lots, in the proposed subdivision described as follows;
PORTIONS OF SEC. 35, T3N, REOW -- WELD COUNTY, CO
Rivsrdance (second phase)
Little Thompson Water District will commit to provide service
to these lots via one standard 5/8" X 3/4" water tap per lot, with
the following conditions:
1. In August of 1993 the Little Thompson Board implemented a "system
impact" fee of $1050 per lot for all lots to be added to the system.
This is due upon completion of the main line extension agreement.
2. All improvements to District facilities required to provide
service will be the financial responsibility of the developer in
accordance with the District Rules and Regulations. All improvements
must conform to District Specifications.
3 . Little Thompson Water District requires the transfer of one
share of Colorado Big Thompson water for each lot in the commitment.
The cost of this eater is subject to rebat, from the tap fees paid
from the development-
4. The installation of a fire hydrant requires payment of a
$2,000 fire hydrant fee prior to final approval of the subdivisions
lines. You will be responsible for any improvements needed to meet
the required tire flows in your subdivision.

5. In order to provide the required flows to the subdivision
you will be required to install a minimum of a 12" Dia. water line
connecting the existing 24" Dia. water line located at 1-25 and WCR
38 to the water lines in the area of your subdivision. The exact
location of the Southern end of the line will depend on the timing
of your project and the extent of water lines installed in the area
at the time you want to begin service. The District may wish to
oversize this line for future needs.
6. You will also be required to provide the needed water lines
in the proposed subdivision.
7. The design, installation and total cost of the project will be
the responsibility of the developer.
It is possible that some of these required water lines may be
required, built or are being designed by other developers in the
same area. If they are in place when you need them then you may be
able to utilize them to serve your development ( subject to LTWD
rebate policy) . It would be wise to work with the other developers
in the area to ensure that the water lines installed would be sized
ts reuce the duuplmet the needs f th icat on and minimize fo uree water n line orepl amount of
acement_
This commitment will expire one year from the date of this
letter if the taps have not been purchased and installed by that

PLANNING STAFF COMMENTS:
The Department of Planning Services staff recommended conditional approval of COZ 528 for
656 residential units and no more than 19 acres of commercial uses. On 8-17-99, the Planning
Commission recommended 7 to 1 to send this case to the BOCC with a recommendation of
conditional approval. The BOCC voted 3-2 on February 16, 2000, to deny this case for a change
of zone from Ag zone district to PUD for 600 to 800 lots with residential and commercial uses.
The case before you today is the consideration of a substantial change. Your task is to determine
whether the applicant has either:
1. Demonstrated that a substantial change in the facts or circumstances have occurred
subsequent to the board's decisions or
2. There was newly discovered evidence that the applicant could not have discovered with
diligent effort at the time of the original application.
Unlike other land use issues you are not asked to review the physical and technical aspects of this
land use case rather you are challenged with making a finding of fact concerning substantial
change and or the introduction of new evidence. The applicant has delineated six particular
issues which in their opinion satisfy this request. On Friday, November 3, 2000, I met with the
applicants and their representative. At this time, the applicant supplied me with a letter Diane H
of the Weld County Public Works Department. A copy of this letter has been distributed today.
The applicants are contending that a recommendation of substantial change is directly related to
this letter. The applicant is prepared to elaborate on this issue.
There was not a sign posted for today's hearing as one is not required, however this cases was
noticed in the South Weld Sun on October 5, 2000. Referral were received from
Weld County Public Works
Department of the Army
