b. Section 6.4.4.6.2 -- The uses which would be allowed in the proposed
Planned Unit Development do not conform with the 20 Performance
Standards contained in Section 2 of the Planned Unit Development
Ordinance. Section 2.2 requires adequate buffering and screening to
make the appearance and operation harmonious with the surrounding
uses; however, the applicant failed to provide a means to make the
operation harmonious with the surrounding uses. Section 2.6 addresses
compatibility with adjoining uses, insofar as density, design, and location
are concerned. There is a feedlot permitted by Use by Special Review
Permit#529 for ten thousand head of cattle. The applicant failed to
prove the uses to be compatible.
c. Section 6.4.4.6.3 -- The uses which would be permitted have not been
shown to be compatible with the existing or future development of the
surrounding area as permitted by the existing Zoning, and with the future
development as projected by the Comprehensive Plan or Master Plans of
affected municipalities. The proposed site lies within the three mile
referral areas of the Town of Eaton and the City of Greeley. Pinnacle
Park Subdivision is three-quarters (3/4) of a mile south of the site. The
City of Greeley recommended denial of the proposal as it does not
comply with the policies and intent of the City of Greeley's
Comprehensive Plan and Resolution 7, 1985. However, the City of
Greeley and Weld County do not have an intergovernmental agreement
in place. The City also requested that the access road be paved.
Pavement is not required as the subdivision is non-urban scale and
accessed from a gravel road.
d. Section 6.4.4.6.5 -- Street or highway facilities providing access to the
property are not adequate in functional classification, width, and structural
capacity to meet the traffic requirements of the uses of the proposed
Zone District.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of County Commissioners of
Weld County, Colorado, that the application of Cecil Farms, c/o Vern Cecil, do Todd Hodges
Design, LLC, for a Change of Zone from the A (Agricultural) Zone District to a PUD (Planned
Unit Development) Zone District with five E (Estate) lots and 7.54 acres of common open space
on the above referenced parcel of land be, and hereby is, denied.
