Morrison Planning Department Representative, Michael Mullen The following business was transacted: _I hereby certify that pursuant to -a notice dated January 25, t984, and duly published in the La Salle Leader on January 26 and February 16, 1984, a hearing was conducted for the purpose of considering the request for a Change of Zone, from A (Agricultural) to PUD (Planned-Unit Development) , from Robert and Theodore Rademacher. Lee Morrison, Assistant County Attorney, read this matter into the record. Michael Mullen, Planning Department representative, read the unfavorable recommendation from the Planning Commission into the record. Mr. Mullen also read the reasons given by the Planning Com- mission for said recommendation into the record. He then listed the basic concerns of the Planning Commission. John Zimmerman, Engineer appearing on behalf of the applicants, came forward to offer comments and answer Questions of the Board. Mr. Zimmerman addressed -the concerns of the Planning Commission. He said the property had been designated as prime agricultural land, but he and the Rademachers do not believe this is prime agricultural land. He said if this were prime agricultural land the -tademachers would wish to continue farming the land. Mr. Zimmerman addressed the concerns about the traffic on the 1-25/Hwy, 66 interchange. He said this interchange is not much different from the interchanges in Northglenn and -Broomfield. He said he spoke with Doug Rames, Assistant District -Engineer with the -State Highway Department, and Mr. Raines offered the opinion that if the State Highway Department had any concerns about the capacity of the I-25/Highway 66 interchange, these concerns would have been expressed prior to this hearing. MrL. Zimmerman made further comments, then -Tom Hellerich, Attorney representing the applicants, came forward to answer questions of the Board. Ted Rademacher, applicant, offered comments to the Board explaining why the and his brother are requesting this Change of Zone. Mr. Rademacher said there is no longer a profit in farming this property. Following the comments by Ted Rademacher, Robert Rademacher read alist of names of surrounding property owners who had c.-ume to this hearing who support this proposal. He also read names of propspective buyers. Ken Williamson, Don Morgan, Wally Armistead, Raymond -Rademacher and John Mc arty came forward in support of this Change of Zone. (Tape Change #84-16) Commissioner Martin, after making_conments, moved to approve this Change of Zone for Robert & -Theodore Rademacher. Commissioner Brantner seconded the nation and explained why he was voting in favor of this proposal. Mr. Mullen said the Planning staff would like to propose certain conditions if this item is approved by the Board. He then read 5 proposed conditions into the record. Mr. Zimmerman saidthese conditions, with the exception of condition #3, are acceptable to the applicants. Condition -#3 concerns the applicant submitting a detailed utility site plan prior to scheduling any _public hearings on a PUD Plan for said site. Mr. Zimmerman said they could not address this item at this time-because they did not know what this would entail in the way of cost or whether it is even possible to have this done by a private consultant without -guidance from the State -Highway Depai URhnt. After discussion regarding TAPE #84-1-5 and #84-16 DOCKET f84-5 LHR 134 030584 Page 2 HEARING CERTIFICATION - COZ, RADEMACHER condition #3, Commissioner Brantner suggested the re-wording of this con- dition.

Connissioner Brantner seconded this notion. Further contents were -made by the_Board. The notion carried by the following vote: Chairman N. Carlson and Commissioners C.

In particular, we discussed this project in relation to the interchange at Interstate 25 and State Highway 66. As you know, we have reviewed this development site on several previous occasions, and our comments have addressed only the issue of access to the Interstate 25 frontage road. Unless specific information about the impact of this development is provided which demonstrates significant traffic impacts at the nearby interchange, we have no additional comments. Had we anticipated such impacts, we would have already made comments to that effect in our previous letters. Let us know if you have any questions or need further information.

Be -it Resolve r praelirlaWMD Planning Commission that the application for: T]1-- jl JAN 6 ± CASE NUMBER: Z-397:83:12 1984 /. OO NAME: Robert and Theodore Rademacher GRtELty, COLD. ADDRESS: c/o McCarty Engineering Consultants, Inc. , 703 -Third Avenue, Longmont, Colorado -80501 -REQUEST: A Change of Zone from "A" (Agricultural) to "IUD" (Planned Unit Development) : (Commercial/Industrial) . LEGAL DESC3RIPTION: -Pt. NW2, Section 23, T3N, R68W, of the 6th P.M. , Weld County, Colorado LOCATION: Approximately two (2) miles southeast of Mead; south of Weld County -Road 32 and -east of 1-15. be recommended unfavorably to the Board of County Commissioners for the following reasons 1. The applicant has not demonstrated in the submitted application materials that the proposal is consistent with the Weld County Comprehensive -Plan. The submitted application materials do not demonstrate that the present zoning on the property under consideration is faulty, or that conditions in the area warrant a change of zone to Planned Unit Development (Commercial/Industrial) . Basic concerns of the Planning Commission are: - Commercial/Industrial development along major transportation arteries (i.e, I-25) impedes the rapid and safe movement of large volumes of traffic; increased amounts of traffic accelerating and decelerating conflicts with high speed traffic. The increased amount of traffic associated with this proposed commercial/industrial activity would disrupt the functioning of the controlled accesses at the intersection of State Highway 66 and Interstate 25. Controlled accesses were never designed to be a commercial/industrial crossroad. Additional development would promote traffic congestion, accidents and possible loss of lives. The submitted application materials did not address this situation; - A majority of the land in the surrounding neighborhood is zoned agricultural. Isolated -pockets of "spot zoning" have taken place to the south and southwest of this proposal. Changing conditions are not surrounding or engulfing the Rademacher property. The submitted application materials did not mention the number of farms and residences that surround the -Rademacher property to the west, northwest, north, northeast, east and southeast. Agricultural uses are still the primary uses in this area, and the future Weld County Land Use Map identifies that this location is intended for agricultural type uses; - Ample zoning already exists in the immediate area for agricultural industries which may -not be accommodated in or adjacent to existing municipalities. South of the proposed development, the Sekich Business -Park has one hundred and fourteen (114) acres -Plated for industrial/commercial uses of which nineteen (19) acres accommodate four (4) existing businesses. Thus, ninety—five (95) acres (or eighteen (18) lots) are currently vacant and available as building sites in the Sekich Business Park. The _submitted application materials did not address this oversupply as well as the associated premature speculation; and Z-397:83: 12 Robert and Theodore Rademacher A Change of Zone from "A" (Agricultural) to "PUD" (Planned Unit Development) : (Commercial/Industrial) . Pt. NWT, Section 23, 23N, R68W, of the 6th P.M. , Weld -County, Colorado January 3, 1984 Page 2 The one hundred and forty-eight (148) acre parcel under review is classified as prime farmland by the Longmont Soil Conservation Di-strict. The Weld County Assessor's Office has one hundred and thirty-six (136) acres of the Rademacher property classified as irrigated land. Therefore, this proposal is contrary to the policies of Weld County in that it would take -class Ile and IIIe prime irrigated soils out of production. The submitted application materials -supplied by the aplicant did not address this issue nor the cropping history of the Rademacher property. 2. These determinations are based, in part, upon a review of the information submitted by the applicant, other relevant information regarding this request, responses of referral entities which have reviewed the request and policies established by the Weld County Comprehensive Plan. Motion seconded by: Bill McMurray Vote: For Passage Against Passage Lydia Dunbar Doug Graff Sharon Linhart Bill McMurray Jack Holman Bob Ehrlich Note: Louis Rademacher asked to be excused from participating in the hearing of this case due to a conflict of interest. The Chairman declared the Resolution passed and ordered that a certified copy be forwarded with the file of this case to the Board of County Commissioners for further proceedings. CERTIFICATION OF COPY I, Bobbie Good, Recording Secretary of the Weld County Planning Commission, do hereby certify that the above and foregoing Resolution ix a true copy of the Resolution of the Planning Commission of Weld County, Colorado, adopted on January 3, 1984 and recorded in Book No. IX of the proceedings of the said Planning Commission. Dated the 4th day of January 1984.

The applicant has not demonstrated in the submitted application materials that there are changing conditions in the neighborhood which warrant this change of zone. It is staff's position that this proposal is contrary to the policies addressed on pages 60 through 65 or the Weld County Comprehensive Plan, and that there is an ample supply of commercial/industrial lots in the immediate area to accommodate agricultural industries. Premature speculation may be an issue with this case. Also, encouragement or this type of speculation will create strip -development along I-25. The Longmont Soil Conservation -District has noted that this site is classified as prime farmland (see enclosed referral) . 148 acres is a drastic amount of valuable farmland to take out of production forever. The proposed uses can be accommodated in urban areas. _ MSM:dg a ,1 `, `\ &'—, '. i;. — •. •\• • p • t �' � .•�w •, 114“;) • L b �. a -2 a " M , N I ^ ll I =•_— ' gyp- o ' - .o. • • �� I• If V• r ,1 r d "4 : A g V : Ilgy \ , pp _ • • "..:-.-•0 u \ • - e c - - v 0 i u ^B SI o _ \ • .IG. - - "' - �� " : g=+.;_ _ :-` iai - • ''.0 .

CONNELL L ELIZABETH H.STROBEL December i 1983 , Weld County Planning Commission Weld County Board of County Commissioners Greeley, Colorado Re: Rademacher PUD Dear Menbers of the Planning Commission and Boara of County Commissioners: Our office has been retained by the appli-c-ants, the Rademachers, to represent them and submit a statement as part of their appli-c-ation for a planned unit -development, for industrial and commercial uses located along the Frontage Road of I-25 and south of County -Road 32 and west of County Road On behalf of the Rademachers, please accept this letter as a statement of their position concerning the changes in the community which surrounds the planned unit development. As the Planning Commission and the Board of County Commissioners are aware, this property lies directly north of and abuts the Sekich planned unit development business park. The Sekich development has a number of -commercial developments, some of which are a fertilizer company, truck sales, a crane leasing company - Essex Crane, and other commercial establishments. As members of the Planning Commission and the Board of -County Commissioners, I am sure you are aware of the changing conditions that justified the change to the Sekich business park from agricultural to the planned unit development. These conditions continue to exist and have in fact increased, as evidenced by the plans for the development and construction of a horse racing track in the immediate area. The changing conditions from agricultural to commercial and industrial are further evidenced by the 1.0-acre parcel which has heretofore been separated from the Rademacher property and is presently zoned C-3 and owned by K & C Motors. K & C Motors is presently developing this property. This parcel lies in she southwest corner of the planned unit development. In addition, the Rademachers have had contacts from other businesses inquiring as to the purchase and development of businesses on acreages in and on the Rademacher property. The planned unit development as submitted by the Rademachers is consistent with the existing development in this area, including the Sekich business park, the 10-acre parcel owned by K & C Motors, the Sekich commercial development south of Stat- Highway 66, and the future C Weld County Planning Commission Weld County Board of County Commissioners December 2, 1983 Page 2 development of the property in this area, including the proposed race track. As members of the Planning Commission and the -Board of County Commissioners, you are abundantly aware of the major interchange of the intersection of State Highway 66 and Interstate 25. This interchange, together with -access to the Frontage Road along I-25 and County Road 32 and County Road 91, provide excellent and needed access to the property. The development contemplated by the Rademachers is ideal for this location and is in total consistency with the existing uses 'of the property that abut it and the future uses and development of these properties. Clearly as evidence of the changing conditions in this part of Weld County are the existing and established commercial and industrial businesses. The new location of this -property establishes it as a prime and ideal location for development of commercial and industrial businesses to accommodate and meet the needs of the surrounding community. The development as proposed by the Rademachers clearly would strengthen and increase the employment and tax base of Weld County and provide a location for businesses to supply necessary employment and services to the community. On behalf of the owners and petitioners for the planned unit development, we believe that the proposed planned unit development is consistent with the Weld County Comprehensive Plan and the changing conditions in the community which are readily apparent from the existing development and the proposed developments in this part of Weld County. Further, the proposed uses of the property under the planned unit development are consistent with the existing and surrounding land uses within the planned unit development and the adjoining properties and is consistent -with the proposed commercial developments in this area of Weld County.

The general soil types are of Eolian deposit . There are seven basic soil types listed in order of a relative percent average of this property: -65% Wiley Colby Complex 131 Kim Loam 9% Kim Loam 6% Kim Loam 5 Aquolls & Aquepts 1% Nunn Clay Loam 1% Nunn Clay Loam ' The Wiley Colby Complex soils are nearly level , loamy plains and range site types, consisting of 60% Wiley soil , 30% Colby soil, and 10% Heldt Clay & Weld Loam. The soil is generally deep and well-drained with moderate permeability, medium surface runoff and moderate erosion characteristics . The soil is generally well suited for landscaping and environmental planting. Bedrock is at a depth of approximately 5 feet . Moderate to low shrink/swell soil characteristics exist throughout the site . The Wiley Colby Complex and other soil types present provide a moderate to good potential for urban and recreational development. Sanitary Facilities Good to moderate perc rates can be found throughout the site as calculations indicate ranges from 40 mpi to 20 mpi . There are no plans for utililization of a County or Municipal sewer system. The developers of each commercial lot on this property will be responsible for having an engineered Individual Sewage Disposal System on their property. It is expected that anticipated business-use sewage flow requirements can be accommodated . This, however , will be determined as geotechnical investigations are conducted for each lot and individual needs can be assessed .

Whether improvements to Weld County Roads 91/2 and 32 are to be done by the applicant, or a cooperative effort between the County in total, is a -decision that will have to be made by the -Board of Weld County Commissioners. * Because many of our reconutendati_ons would require revision and addition to the plans and documents submitted, I request we be given an opportunity for further review before approval. DETERMINATIONS TO -BE MADE BY THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS ON CHANCE OF ZONE REQUESTS 21.6,2 The Board of County Commissioners -shall hold a public hearing to consider the application and to take final action thereon. In making a _decision on the proposed change of zone, the Board shall consider the recommendation of the Planning Commission, and from the facts presented at the public hearing and the information contained in the official record, which includes the Department of Planning Services case file, the Board of County Commissioners shall approve the request for the change of zone unless it finds that the applicant has not met one or more of the standards or conditions of Sections 21.6. 2 and 21 . 7 (application requirements) . The applicant has the burden of proof to show that the standards and conditions of Sections 21.6.2 and 21. 7 (application requirements) are met. The applicant shall demonstrate: 21.6.2. 1 That the proposal is consistent with the policies of the Weld County Comprehensive Plan; if mot, Then that the zoning of the property under consideration is faulty, or that changing conditions in the area warrant a change of zone. 21.6.2.2 That the USES which would be allowed on the subject property by granting the change of zone will be compatible with the surrounding land USES. 21.6.2.3 That adequate water and sewer service can be made available to serve the site. If the rezoning is approved, the applicant shall demonstrate, prior to issuance of building permita on the site, that the water and sewer services are available at the site and are adequate and appropriate to meet the DEVELOPMENT requirements. 21.6.2.4 That -STREET or highway facilities providing access to the property are adequate in size to meet the requirements of the proposed zone district. In the event that the STREET or highway facilities are not properly sized and are planned to be properly aized in the future, in conformance with the Weld County Thoroughfare Plan or ±n conformance with the MASTER PLAN of -affected municipalities, the applicant may either wait to secure the rezoning until the improvements are made by the appropriate unit of government -or the applicant may express -a willingness to upgrade the STREET or highway facilities at his own expense in order to secure approval of the requested change of zone. In the latter event, it will -be necessary for the applicant to either construct the necessary improvements before building permits are issued, or submit suitable -performance guarantees to Weld County to ensure construction of the required STREET or highway facility improvements. No rezoning shall be finally approved by the Board until the applicant has submitted an Improvements Agreement or Contract approved by the Board which sets forth the form of improvements guarantees. Any such Agreement or Contract shall be made in conformance with the Weld County Tolley on Collateral -for Agreements. 21.6.2.5 That, in -those instances where the following characteristics are applicable to the rezoning request, the applicant -had demonstrated compliance with the applicable standards: 21 .6.2.5. 1 If the proposed change of zone is located within any Overlay District identified by maps officially adopted by Weld County, that the applicant has demonstrated compliance with the Weld County regulations concerning Overlay Districts. Compliance may be demonstrated in a previous public hearing or in the hearing concerning the rezoning application. 21.6.2.5.2 That the proposed rezoning will not _permit the USE of any -area known to contain a COMMERCIAL MINERAL DEPOSIT as defined by Colorado Statutes in a manner which would interfere with the present or future extraction of such deposit by an extractor to any greater extent than under the present zoning of the property. 21.6.2.5. 3 If soil conditions on the site are such that they present moderate or severe ]imitations to the construction of ST-RUCTURES or facilities proposed for the site, the applicant has demonstrated that such limitations will be addressed by the applicant, the applicant's successors or assigns prior to DEVELOPMENT of the property.
