Dear Chris,
I have received and reviewed the James & Kristie Docheff Dairy's Use by Special Review Permit
application, Case Number USR-1262, for expansion of the existing operation to an 800 head
dairy northeast of Longmont. In addition, a site inspection was made to view the dairy and
surrounding properties.
The size of the proposed facility will require it to adhere to Confined Animal Feeding Operation
(CAFO) Regulations. There appears to be adequate evidence in the plan that these regulations
have been considered in the planning phase.
The plan calls for up to 10 employees, which is within industry standards for a dairy of this size,
and justifies the request for the addition of a modular house on the property for employee
housing.
On question 5e of the questionnaire, a table is shown titled "Diamond D Dairy - Animal Unit
Table." I would suggest that "Unit"be changed to "Number" to avoid possible confusion with
CAFO, EPA, and other possible regulations that consider a mature dairy cow to be 1.4 animal
units.
Weld County Extension has no objection to this proposal. If there are any questions, please do
not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely, /774011

Dear Mr. Cashman:
I have reviewed the submitted material pertaining to the Special Review Permit for the Diamond D Dairy
located at 4513 Weld County Road 32 in Weld County(Case Number: USR-1262,Case Name: James and
Kristie Docheff). The property named is within the boundaries of the Mountain View Fire Protection
District and receives service from the District. The Fire District does not object to the Animal Feeding
Operation provided the requirements of the District can be met. Based on my review, I have the following
comments'.
• Fire apparatus roads shall be provided for all new buildings or building additions so fire apparatus may
reach to within 150 feet of all portions of the building. Apparatus access roads shall be a minimum of
20 feet in width and be designed and maintained to support the imposed loads of fire apparatus
(60,000 pounds). Roads must have a surface that provides all-weather driving capabilities. Roads in
excess of 150 feet in length must be provided with approved provisions for the turning around of fire
apparatus. The minimum turning radii for all turns shall be thirty-five (35) feet inside turning radius
and forty-eight(48)feet outside turning radius.
• Water supply for fire protection will be required for the proposed modular home if the structure is over
3,600 gross square feet.
We appreciate being involved in the planning process. Should you have any questions, please contact me
at(303)772-0710.

RE: James and Kristie Docheff Special Review Permit for Animal Feeding ORr ((ai)y�ZaciePart of the
E2 SW4 of Sec.14, T2N, R68W)
Dear Chris:
Thank you for referring the James and Kristie Docheff Special Review Permit for Animal Feeding Operation to
the School District. The projected student impact upon the St. Vrain Valley School District of what appears to be
1 new permanent single family unit on 25 acres is a total of 1 student. If this is not a permanent resident
please advise the District. Any students living in this subdivision would attend Mead Elementary, Mead Middle,
and Skyline High School under the present school boundaries. However, due to potential growth in these schools
this development and other existing developments in this feeder could be placed in another attendance area in the
future. Bus transportation would likely be required.

The District is on record as not opposing growth so long as the growth is planned and is manageable from a
student enrollment stand point. While the middle currently has limited capacity, this development could impact
the elementary and high school which are currently overcrowded. In addition, there are other approved
developments in these attendance areas which would, together with this proposal, have a significant cumulative
impact on these schools.
As the volume of developments increases in this attendance area with no alleviation of the existing overcrowded
conditions, the ability to provide the same quality education for these new students that is provided students in
other areas becomes increasingly difficult. Therefore, the District would oppose this development because it
adds to the enrollment of an already overcrowded school. Should this proposal be considered for approval, the
District would request the cooperation and participation of the developer and County in implementing a separate
agreement to help mitigate the impacts on the schools. This agreement would include the calculation and
payment of an appropriate cash in-lieu of land dedication fee to address the capacity concerns at these schools
(per the attached chart). Please let me know if you have any further questions.
