REQUEST: A Site Specific Development Plan and a Special Review Permit for an Agricultural
Service Establishment primarily engaged in performing agricultural, animal
husbandry, or horticultural services on a fee or contract basis, including Livestock
Confinement Operations (4,000 Head Dairy) and Four Additional Accessory to the
Farm Dwelling Units for Employees, in the Agricultural Zone Distric:t
LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Parts of the W2 of Section 5, T7N, R67W of the 6th P.M. Weld
County. Colorado
LOCATION: East of and adjacent to WCR 15, North of and adjacent to WCR 84
SIZE OF PARCEL: +/- 278 acres
PARCEL NUMBER: 07050500008, 07050500012
THE DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING SERVICES' STAFF RECOMMENDS THAT THIS
REQUEST BE APPROVED FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS
1. The submitted materials are in compliance with the application requirements of Section 24 7
of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance, as amended.
2. It is the opinion of the Department of Planning Services's staff that the applicant has shown
compliance with Section 24.3 of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance, as amended, as
follows:
a. Section 24.3.1.1 --That the proposal is consistent with the Weld County
Comprehensive Plan. A.Goal 1 states, "Preserve prime farmland for agricultural
purposes which foster the economic health and continuance of acriculture." The
U.S.D.A. soils map indicates that the soils on the majority of this property are
designated "prime" and a small strip through the center of the parcel as "prime. if
irrigated." The proposed dairy is an agricultural use of economic: importance to
Weld County. According to the Greeley Tribune, in an article in the October ' , 2)00
addition of Raised in Weld County, "There are 83,000 dairy cows in Weld (-anKed
29th in the nation). Those cows, in July alone, contributed $11.1 million to the
county's economy by producing 96.6 million pounds of milk." A.Policy 1 stales,
Dyelands Dairy, USR-1289, Page
"Agricultural zoning will be established and maintained to protect and promote the
County's agricultural industry." The proposal will also benefit those commercial and
industrial uses directly related to agriculture, as well as benefit the farmers in the
area who will provide feed and other products to the dairy.
b. Section 24.3.1.2 --The proposal is consistent with the intent of the district in which
the use is located. The property is zoned Agricultural and section 31.4.2 states that
Agricultural Service Establishments primarily engaged in performing agricultural.
animal husbandry, or horticultural services on a fee or contract basis, including
livestock confinement operations, are permitted as a Use by Special Review in the
Agricultural Zone District.
c. Section 24.3.1.3 --The uses which would be permitted will be compatible with the
existing surrounding land uses. Uses on adjacent properties are primarily
agricultural, including farmed fields and pasture lands. There is a newly developed
five lot minor subdivision (Remington Place, Les Gelvin, S-505) approved by the
Board of County Commissioners on December 8, 1999. A condition of approval for
this subdivision was to recognize the Right to Farm Covenant and place it on the
Change of Zone and Final Plat mylars, notifying any new residents. of Agricultural
uses in the area. There have been several letters of opposition sent to the
Department of Planning Services from neighbors regarding potential problems wit
noise, odor, dust and flies, as well as a general incompatibility with the "rural
neighborhood" and the proposed dairy. Historically, this property has had livestock
confinement operations since approximately 1973 and is rural in nature.
Conditions of Approval and Development Standards will ensure that any
incompatibilities will be mitigated. The Conditions of Approval and Development
Standards will ensure the health, safety and welfare of the citizens of Weld Count/.
The Department of Planning Services' staff believes that this permit will provide
greater regulation than what would be in place if the dairy was a Use by Right. As
a Use by Right, the applicant could confine 1,112 animals (four per acre) on this 2.78
acre parcel. If this proposal is approved, the applicant must abide by al State
Department of Public Health and Environment regulations, in addition to the
Conditions of Approval and Development Standards set forth in this permit. The
Conditions of Approval and Development Standards include, but are not limited to,
requiring the applicant to submit and receive approval for and operate 'n
accordance with dust, odor and fly abatement plans as well as a manure and
wastewater management plans. The Department of Planning Services received
thirteen (13) letters, as well as forty-cne additional signatures of support for the
dairy.
d. Section 24.3.1.4 --The uses which would be permitted will be compatible with 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. This proposal is not within a three mile referral area of any
town, however, it is within one mile of Larimer County. Larimer County was sent a
referral for this application and had no conflicts with their interests. Mr. Dye has an
operating dairy in Larimer County, with apparently no problems with the County
Dyelands Dairy, USR-1289, Page 3
e. Section 24.3.1.5-- This proposal does not lie within any Overlay Districts. Effective
December 1, 1999, Building Permits issued on this property lots may be required
to adhere to the fee structure of the Windsor Service Area Road Impact Program.
(Ordinance 210)
f. Section 24.3.1.6--If the use is proposed to be located in the A-District, the applicant
shall demonstrate a diligent effort to conserve prime agricultural land in the
locational decision for the proposed use. This property is designated as "prime" and
"prime, if irrigated" as designated on the U.S.D.A Soils Map. The site has been
historically utilized for animal confinement and although some prime farmground will
be taken out of field production, agricultural uses will continue to located on his
parcel, including pasture.
g. Section 24.3.1.7-There is adequate provision for the protection of the health, safety
and welfare of the inhabitants of the neighborhood and the County. The attached
Conditions of Approval and Development Standards ensure the protection of the
health, safety and welfare of the inhabitants of the neighborhood and the County.
h. Section 47 -- The applicant shall comply with the additional requirements of the
Livestock Feeding Performance Standards.
This recommendation is based, in part, upon a review of the application materials submitted by the
applicant, other relevant information regarding the request, and responses from referral entities.
The Department of Planning Services' staff recommendation for approval is conditional upon the
following:
1. The attached Development Standards for the Special Review Permit shall be adopted and

REQUEST: Site Specific Development Plan and Use by Special Review Permit for an Agricultural Service Establishment
primarily engaged in performing agricultural, animal husbandry, or horticultural services on a fee or contract basis,
including livestock Confinement Operations (4,000 head Dairy).
LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Parts of the W2 of Section 5, T7N, R67W of the 6th P.M., Weld County, Colorado.
LOCATION: East of and adjacent to WCR 15; north of and adjacent to WCR 84.

COMMENTS:
This property is located on the northern fringe of surface irrigated land in Weld County. There are a number of
smaller acreages in the vicinity. Southwest of the intersection of WCR 84 and WCR 15 there is a minor subdivision and
four other homes within /z mile, not included above. In the south Yo. of the section directly south of the proposed use,
there is another minor subdivision and seven or eight additional homes, also not included above. Some of the dirt work is
in progress now. Because of this, I could visualize the proposed use better. The setbacks from both WCR 15 and WCR
84 are substantial and the dirt berm and proposed tree belt on the south should mitigate some of the Impacts. The

COMMENTS:
• On Site: Corn Fields, Dairy cows in pens, a Quonset, there are pens and outbuildings
already located on this site. There is a small house on the corner of WCR 84 and WCR 15,
a larger house (main house) approximately 1/4 mile from the intersection of WCR 84 and
n15, and two houses approximately 3/4 of a mile from the same intersection, which are not
a part of this application. The overall layout of the property appears to be a good location for
! Th the dairy as it sits on a gradual hill, with good drainage. The north portion of the property
is currently planted in corn and the Cactus Hill Ditch (concrete) borders the property on the
east property line. It appears the main access is from WCR 15 at this time. The sign was
posted for the Planning Commission Hearing at the time of inspection.
