RESOLUTION OF RECOMMENDATION TO THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
Moved by Arlan Marrs that the following resolution be introduced for passage by the Weld County Planning
Commission. Be it resolved by the Weld County Planning Commission that the application for:
PLANNER: Sheri Lockman
CASE NUMBER: USR-1260
APPLICANT: Jimmie L. and Sharon M. Wolfrum
ADDRESS: P.O. Box 2207, Greeley, CO 80632
REQUEST: A Site Specific Development Plan and a Special Review Permit for a business permitted
as a use by right in the Industrial Zone District (Automotive Machine Shop) in the
Agricultural Zone District.
LEGAL DESCRIPTION: S2 NE4 of Section 10, T6N, R64W of the 6th P.M., Weld County, CO
LOCATION: West of and adjacent to Weld County Road 57 and 1/2 mile south of Weld County Road 72
be recommended favorably to the Board of County Commissioners 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 Planning Commission 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 2 allows commercial and industrial uses which are directly related to or
dependent upon agriculture to locate within Agricultural zoning when the impact to
surrounding properties is minimal, and where adequate services and infrastructure are
available. Much of work conducted by this business is on agricultural equipment.
b. Section 24.3.1.2 --That the proposal is consistent with the intent of the district in which the
USE is located. Section 31.4.18 of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance allows for uses
permitted as a use by right in the Industrial zone district as a use by special review in the
Agricultural zone district. Section 34.2.2.1 allows for any use of a research, repairing,
manufacturing,fabricating, processing,assembling, or storage nature to be conducted, as
long as such use is conducted only within enclosed buildings, as a use by right in the I-1
(Industrial)zone district.
c. Section 24.3.1.3 --That the USES which would be permitted will be compatible with the
existing surrounding land USES. The surrounding property is very rural in nature with
limited homes. Since the automotive machine shop is proposed to be conducted entirely
in the enclosed building and the nearest home is 1/4 mile to the south, staff expects few
conflicts.
d. Section 24.3.1.4 --That 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. The site does not lie within the Urban Growth Boundary or referral area of
any municipality.

e. Section 24.3.1.5--That the application complies with the Weld County Zoning Ordinance,
Section 50,Overlay District Regulations if the proposal is located within the Overlay District
Areas identified by maps officially adopted by Weld County. This proposal does not lie
within any Overlay Districts.
f. Section 24.3.1.6 --That if the USE is proposed to be located in the A-District, that the
applicant has demonstrated a diligent effort has been made to conserve prime agricultural
land in the locational decision for the proposed USE. The entire 79 acre parcel is
designated "Prime" by the USDA Soil Conservation Services. However, the proposed
location of the home and shop is at a sprinkler corner with an adjacent irrigation pond
limiting the agricultural value.
g. Section 24.3.1.7 --The Design Standards (Section 24.5 of the Weld County Zoning
Ordinance), Operation Standards (Section 24.6 of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance),
Conditions of Approval, and Development Standards ensure that there are adequate
provisions for the protection of health, safety, and welfare of the inhabitants of the
neighborhood and county.
