RE: COZ-539, a PUD Change of Zone for Meadow Vale Phase II to include 14 Residential lots,
one Library Site, one Civic Site, and one Open Space Site, located north of and adjacent to
State Highway 119 and east of and adjacent to Weld County Road 5.5.
Dear Ms. Torrey:
Your application for the PUD Change of Zone mentioned above was reviewed by Weld County
Planning Staff today at our regular staff meeting. Planning staff did not feel they could make a
recommendation to the Weld County Planning Commission without the following information.
1. A Storm Drainage Design and Technical Criteria Regulations, as found in Section 10.13 of
the Weld County Subdivision Ordinance was not provided with this application. Please refer to
page 15 of the PUD Procedural Guide for further information regarding this requirement.
2. The requirements, as outlined on the attached letter from the State Division of Water
Resources needs to be met.
3. An Improvements Agreement describing the proposed road improvements and method of
guaranteeing installation of the improvements in conformance with the Weld County Policy on
Collateral for Improvements was not submitted. Please refer to page 15 of the PUD Procedural
Guide for further information regarding this requirement. In addition, this requirement was
conveyed on page 6 of the Sketch Plan comments dated September 9, 1999 from the
Department of Planning Services.
Please submit the above information prior to 4 p.m. Friday, April 7. If you are unable to meet this
deadline, Planning Staff will not have sufficient time to finalize the case and have no choice but
to ask for a continuance at the Planning Commission hearing scheduled for April 18, 2000. If
you have further questions, please contact me at (970) 363-6100 x 3540.

RE: Meadow Vale Farm, Phase l!

Water Division 1, Water District 5
Dear Ms. Chester:
We have received the above referenced proposal to subdivide 44.42 acres into 14 single
family lots, 2 commercial lots, and open space. The proposed water source is Left Hand Water
District, however, a letter of commitment for service has not been submitted.
As required in Section 30-28-136(1)(h)(II), C.R.S., a municipality or quasi-
municipality, upon receiving the preliminary plan designating said municipality or quasi-
municipality as the source of water for a proposed subdivision, shall file, with the board of
County Commissioners and the State Engineer, a statement documenting the amount of water
which can be supplied by said municipality or quasi-municipality to proposed subdivision without
causing injury to existing water rights. A report of this nature has not been submitted to this
office.
The "Water Supply Information Summary" form which was provided to the county along
with the State Engineer's August 7, 1995 letter was not included with this submittal. As stated
in the State Engineer's letter, this form is required to be submitted along with each subdivision
referral in order for our office to respond to the county.
Based upon the above and pursuant to Section 30-28-136(1)(h)(II), it is our opinion that
the District has not submitted sufficient evidence documenting that the proposed water supply
can be provided without causing injury to existing water rights. Should you have any questions,
please contact Heidi Frey of this office.

purview of the Weld County Mixed Use Development Area (MUD) Planned Unit Development Sketch Plan
Standards. Our requirements are as follows:
1. WCR 5.5: The MUD Structural Transportation Network Map 2.2 identifies this roadway as a two-lane
collector. This review was based on equivalent two-lane roads with painted median. There
is currently 100 feet of right-of-way at this location.
2. Road Improvements Agreement: The developer shall be required to enter into a Road
Improvements Agreement to construct the remaining one half of WCR 5.5 as per Figure 2.10.
3. Internal Roads: All internal roads shall conform to the MUD Local Street Standards. All cul-de-sac
rights-of-way shall have a minimum radius of 65 feet with a paved radius of 50 feet from edge of pavement
to edge of pavement.
A. Weld County will assign road numbers if the developer chooses not to name the internal
streets.
B. All lots will access from an internal road system with no direct access to WCR 5.5.
4. Storm Water Drainage: A statement describing how the applicant intends to handle the storm water
drainage was not included.
5. Access:
A. The applicant is indicating a private lake access to a small parking area adjacent to the park. This
access point shall be a minimum of 24 feet wide to accommodate two-way traffic. A locked gate shall
be at the property line to allow vehicles to pull off WCR 5.5.

RE: COZ-539, a PUD Change of Zone for Meadow Vale Phase II.
Dear Ms. Torrey:
The drainage study for the aforementioned application was reviewed by Weld County Department of
Public Works. Public Works staff did not feel they could make a recommendation to the Weld County
Planning Commission. Please ask your engineering consultants to contact Diane Houghtaling at the
Department of Public Works to address the following isues:
1. The submitted Drainage Report was not inclusive of the entire site. The northern portion of
the site was not included.
2. The submitted Drainage Report did not consider drainage coming from off-site sources.
3. The submitted Drainage Report did not discuss the amount of water that will be diverted to a
detention site. In addition, the detention site was not placed.
4. The submitted Drainage Report did not discuss how the"Flood Plain" classification and the high
water table of the entire site will influence storm water drainage.
5. The storm sewer maintenance and placement was not addressed for the northern Civic Site. In
addition, the storm sewer maintenance on the eastern residential lots was not addressed.
6. The slope of 1:3 behind lot 2 on the eastern side is severe. The slope of 1:6 on lots 3 - 8 on the
eastern side is also severe.
It is important to note that a Traffic Impact Analysis for this Phase II of Meadow Vale will be required prior
the final plan submittal for this development.
It is the determination of Weld County Public Works and Planning Services that more time is required to
review additional information regarding the Storm Water Drainage Plan, and shall therefore request that
this case be continued. Please contact me at your nearest convenience to determine a hearing date.

Dear Diane:
RE: MEADOW VALE II —CHANGE OF ZONE COZ-539
Our Project no. 99011
We received a fax of a letter yesterday concerning our drainage plan for the above referenced project
from Anne Best Johnson of the County's Planning Department.
We were informed by our client,Mr.Floyd Oliver,on April 3',that County Planning required a
drainage plan and report for this project prior to April 7th or it would not be on the Planning
Commission's April 18th agenda. BHA Design had indicated on their Change of Zone plat
(submitted to the County on January 19, 2000)that natural drainage patterns would be preserved
and that the existing pond would collect stormwater runoff.
Our drainage plan 8c report for Meadow Vale II did not incorporate the northern portion (Parcel B)
of the PUD site because the type and extent of development in this area is not known at this time.
A storm sewer,which serves The Elms at Meadow Vale,has recently been approved by the
County's Public Works staff which crosses this Parcel and directs stormwater runoff into the
adjacent wetlands. Currently,stormwater generated from this site will be historic and flow southeast
onto property owned by the applicant.
At this stage in the planning 8c design process,the only conceptually defined development is the
fourteen lot subdivision and its associated streets. The stormwater runoff presently generated from
Meadow Vale Subdivision is diverted around this proposed subdivision by drainage channels
constructed along the west side of W.C.R. 5-1/2.
The Preliminary Drainage Report we submitted to the County on April 7th stunmatized both the
five-year and 100-year runoff generated by the proposed subdivision and indicated that runoff will
flow undetained into the existing pond adjacent to the development.
According to the Flood Insurance Rate Map for this area (Community Panel Number 080266 0850
C,map revised: September 28, 1982),the St. Vrain Creek floodplain extends to the eastern edge of
W.C.R. 5-1/2. We anticipate during the final design of this subdivision that the grading plan will
identify the finished floors of proposed homes so they are at least one foot above the level of the
100-year base flood. Much of the area where this subdivision is being proposed has already been
raised higher than adjacent W.C.R. 5-1/2 when the topsoil from the gravel mining operation was
relocated.

Ms. Diane Houghtaling
April 12, 2000
Page 2
The storm sewer constructed in Parcel B is constructed within a public drainage easement to allow
the County the ability to maintain the lines. We anticipate that a drainage easement will be provided
on the final PUD plat for the storm sewer and drainage swale proposed in Meadow Vale II for
maintenance by the County.
We are not proposing overlot grading steeper than 3:1 for the subdivision,nor do we believe that a
3:1 slope is severe.
The receipt of Ms.Johnson's letter regarding our drainage plan and report has me confused on two
issues. First, I don't understand why if the January 19,2000 Change of Zone submittal by BHA
Design was incomplete (i.e. drainage plan not provided)that it took until April 7`"to identify this
concern to the applicant when he had been advised that he would be on the Planning Commission's
April 18`1 agenda. Secondly,why does the County require (other than it is outlined in Section
6.3.2.2.1.7. of Ordinance 197) a detailed engineering drainage study at the Change of Zone step? It
would appear that a conceptual drainage plan would be more appropriate at this level of the design
process.
We do not feel that any drainage issue raised by your letter could not be addressed during the
preparation of the PUD Final Plan and we certainly do not agree that this project should be
continued to a future Planning Commission hearing because of the concerns raised.
We would be happy to meet with you at your earliest convenience to provide any additional
information on my drainage issues you may still have.
Sincerely,
Michael C. Ketterling, PE

We will investigate the 100-year base flood profile elevations of St.Vrain Crock during the final design of
grading and drainage for the above referenced subdivision.
As mentioned previously,the finished floors of all proposed homes will be set a minimum of one foot
above the level of the 100-year base flood.
In order to accomplish this criteria,additional fill,retaining walls or a revised layout of lots or possible
loss of some of the conceptual lots may be required. This will be determined during the final design

RE: COZ-539, a PUD Change of Zone for Meadow Vale Phase II.
Dear Mr. Oliver:
Your letter, dated April 13, 2000 was received this morning. In submitted application materials,
a Civic Site was noted for the 2 acres at the north end of the Meadow Vale Phase II site. Such
possible uses were listed as a "fire, police, or sheriff facility, or a recreation center." Department
of Planning Services staff determined that should the proposed use, as outlined in application
materials, be modified at this time, the Change of Zone process will need to begin again. This is
due to the fact that day care centers, professional business offices, and a branch post office are
a more intense use than satellite service centers as indicated in the original application
materials.
Referral entities such as Public Works, State Division of Water Resources, Left Hand Water
District, St. Vrain Sanitation District, the Fire District, and Public Health will need to re-evaluate
the application based on a more intense use for this proposed site.
Please do not hesitate to contact me. I will be out of the office on Friday, April 14.

RE: COZ-539, a PUD Change of Zone for Meadow Vale Farm Ph. II
Dear Ms Best Johnson
At the time I submitted Meadow Vale Farm Phase II for change of zone I did not know that
Weld County was planning on building a services support building in the Del Camino area
East of 1-25. I have since learned that Weld County plans to build a one million dollar
building on property they already own East of I-25.
This changes my thinking with respect to Parcel B a 1.7 acre site at the North part of the
site. Parcel B is shown on our submittal as potential civic use, IE fire station, police/sheriff,
recreation center.
I would like to expand the definition of"civic uses"to include day care centers, professional
offices, branch post offices, community church or other community services building. I am
not requesting retail sales building of any kind of commercial/industrial buildings.
I do not have a specific use in mind nor do I have any potential sales of the site, so I expect
the site will remain open for quite some time.
I hope this request is not to open ended for you. I would agree to further review of partial B
by the planning commission if you desire.
Sincerely,
ri
