USE BY SPECIAL REVIEW QUESTIONAIRE
The following questions are to be answered and submitted as part of the USR application.
If a question does not pertain to your use, please respond with"not applicable", with an
explanation to why the question is not applicable.
1. Explain, in detail, the proposed use of the property.
The property is the location of my personal residence and garage and in addition I would like to use
the property for the office, storage, and shop facility for a small business, electrical contractor. I
also plan to continue minor agricultural activities.
2. Explain how this proposal is consistent with the intent of the Weld County
Comprehensive Plan.
The intent of the Weld County Comprehensive Plan is the efficient land use planning in Weld
County to minimize the impact of development on agricultural lands. The use of our County
agricultural lands is also important to my company, and myself which is apparent as to my choice in
the location of my residence and business which is 7240 WCR 1, Longmont, Colorado. As
submitted my property is approximately 5.5 acres and is located within an Agricultural Zone.
Please note that this property is of a lesser size, which is not generally practical to farm due to
large-scale management practices existing today. This is stated within the Comprehensive Plan
under Agriculture A.Goal 9., A.Policy 4.1.2 and A.Policy 4.1.6. The operation of our business will in
no way encroach upon any of the topics within the Comprehensive Plan.
There are many important issues within the Comprehensive Plan and I would like to briefly
comment on the consistency of our company's operation and the Plan's intent. As the Plan states
in the Commercial Development C.Goal 2 and C.Policy 3.2, it is the intent is to ensure the
compatibility of commercial land uses with adjacent land uses. Within the vicinity of the site of our
business there are several other established businesses including but not limited to general
construction contractor, gravel mining and agricultural uses. There is also a Special Use Permit
for a telecommunications tower, which is located, adjacent to our property. Our business is
operated in every manner that is compatible with all existing land uses as required within the
Comprehensive Plan.
Public services and facilities are available and will serve our small commercial business with no
additional cost to the Weld County taxpayers. As required in the Comprehensive Plan fire
Protection requirements, we are within a five-mile radius of Mountain View Fire Protection Station
that is located within an initial travel time to arrival at our location in less than 15 minutes from the
time a call is received from the dispatch center. Fire protection is provided 24 hours a day.
The site has one access point on to Weld County Road 1. This road has a surface that is sufficient
to travel every day of the year for the purpose of controlling and extinguishing any and all potential
fires at the business site. As an improvement to the site we have widen the entrance driveway,
relocated a telephone/electrical pole and also relocated utility easements to better facilitate access
to the property.
The maintenance and quality of our small business commercial environment is free of unsightly
materials including inoperable vehicles, unscreened outdoor storage of items, refuse and fitter.

Our improvements to the property integrate attractive, drought-tolerant landscaping with the
existing natural landscape with a minimum of removal of vegetation. In addition, we have stabilized
and finalized our landscaping and it is continually maintained. These are requirements that are
stated in the Comprehensive Plan Natural Resources O.Goal4, O.Policy 5.1, and O.Policy 5.2.
It is said that a picture is worth a thousand words. Please see the attached portfolio of photos,
which reflect the changes that my property has under gone since our purchase of the property in
May 1996. The property has become a much more attractive land use that is consistent with the
Weld County Comprehensive Plan.
3. Explain how this proposal is consistent with the intent of the Weld County Zoning
Ordinance and the zone district in which it is located.
As a small business electrical contractor to be located within the agricultural zone our
business will foster the county's agricultural business, mining and other economic bases.
We provide a clean, safe and pleasant commercial/residential business involving a
minimum strain on transportation facilities. Our business provides a necessary service
that is conveniently located in proximity of resident and commercial developments. It is in
our opinion that the proposed land use encourages a more efficient use of the land and
economic provisions of public and private services that benefit the community as a whole.
4. What type of uses surround the site? Explain how the proposed use is consistent
and compatible with surrounding land uses.
Within the vicinity of the site of our business there are several other established business'
including but not limited to general construction contractor, Fischer Construction
Company, gravel mining, telecommunications tower and agricultural uses. As a
landowner I have granted utility easements for water& high-pressure gas to three
adjacent landowners. I am also active in working with the neighborhood irrigation
association users. Our small electrical contracting business will continue to ensue that
our business is operated in every manner that is compatible with existing and planned
land uses in the neighborhood with no negative impacts at all to the adjacent properties
