Summary of the Weld County Planning Commission Meeting March 5, 1985 Page 6 The Chairman called for discussion from the members of the Planning Commission. Discussion followed. The Chairman asked the secretary to poll the members of the Planning Commission for their decision. Sharon Linhart - no; Jack Dolman - No, because he does not feel there is any real problem if he is working out of his own garage and doing business for some of the neighbors in the area, as far as repair work and even if they are bringing in their own motors and tearing them apart, the big concern here is the storage area, all of the things that are out in the yard, and parking in the road right-of-way. In the application we are really expanding this operation and he is concerned with the transferability of the permit and the concerns of the surrounding property owners. It is his feeling this request is not compatible with existing land uses. Even if things are cleaned up and moved behind we are still not solving the problem with the neighbors. We are just making the junk yard bigger. Louis Rademacher - yes; Bill McMurray - no; Stephen Hamilton - No, though the Bonds, as their neighbors say, are basically good people, if this is to be allowed and the use passed on to anyone else :his could be another bag of worms. Paulette Weaver - No, she would rather see this request go with the Bonds and not with the land. Doug Graff - yes; Lydia Dunbar - yes; Bob Ehrlich - no.

REQUEST: A Use by Special Review Permit for Oil and Gas Production Facilities in a R-1 (Low Density Residential) Zone District LEGAL DESCRIPTION: N1 SW1, Section 21 , T5N, R65W of the 6th P.M. , Weld County, Colorado LOCATION: South of the Greeley City Limits and east of the Evans City Limits; east of First Avenue APPEARANCE Arlo Richardson, Mineral Resources, Inc. , representing the applicant stated this well has been drilled. They did not realize they were in a residential zone nor did the property owner. Usually they make an application to the State Oil and Gas Commission and since there are no houses in the area, except for an old house, both the property owner and themselves surmised they were not in a residential area. They will be careful to check on the zoning in the future. exr,ifJ/r Summary of the Weld County Planning Commission Meeting March 5, 1985 Page 7 Joe Borling, Mineral Resources, Inc. , explained how the well was installed. The Chairman asked James Mayerl to read the recommendations, conditions, and operation standards, as outlined by the Department of Planning Services staff into the record. Tape 196 - Side 1 The Chairman called for discussion from the audience. There was none. The Chairman asked the applicants if they had any problems with the staff's recommendations, conditions, and operation standards. They had none. They wanted the Planning Commission to be aware that this application fcr a Use by Special Review Permit is for two wells, and the second well has not been drilled. They do have the capability of making the existing well conform to the city of Greeley's recommendations concerning installation standards, and they will do so. Lee Morrison explained that as long as soils have not been contaminated the soils can be disked onto the property owner's land with the property owner's consent. MOTION: Doug Graff moved Case Number USR-668:85:6 for Mineral Resources, Inc. , be forwarded to the Board of County Commissioners with the Planning Commission's recommendation for approval based upon the recommendations, conditions, and operation standards as outlined by the Department of Planning Services staff and the testimony of the applicants. Motion seconded by Jack Holman. The Chairman called for discussion from the members of the Planning Commission. Discussion followed concerning the oil companies not checking the zoning prior to drilling. Lee Morrison reported the State Legislature is looking at some of these issues. There has been a push to get local entities completely out of the area of regulating oil and gas production. This certainly works with gravel resources in that someone goes to the state and one of the questions on the application is--show us your local approval. Is it required, if not show us why not, and if yes, get the local approval first. That is something that can be worked out, but at the present time the state doesn't require this and the Oil and Gas Conservation Commission probably wants to get local government completely out of the area and the legislature may take care of the problem by preempting us completely, but that remains to be seen. Summary of the Weld County Planning Commission Meeting March 5, 1985 Page 8 The Chairman asked the secretary to poll the members of the Panning Commission for their decision. Jack Holman - Yes, but it is hard for him to believe that the oil companies will drill without finding out what the zoning is. As many times as we have had cases such as this in the past and as much work as the oil companies have to go through to get all of the legals that they don't check the zoning areas out in the country is hard to believe. In many counties there are areas zoned Estate, etc. , that are out in the county. Louis Rademacher - yes; Bill McMurray - yes; Stephen Hamilton - yes; Paulette Weaver - yes; Doug Graff - yes; Lydia Dunbar - yes; Sharon Linhart - yes. Motion carried unanimously.

THE DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING SERVICES STAFF RECOMMENDS THAT THIS REOUI.ST BE APPROVED FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS: 1.. The submitted materials are in compliance with application requirements of Section 24.7 of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance. 2. It is the opinion of the Department of Planning Services staff that the applicant has shown compliance with Section 24.3 . 1 et seq. of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance as follows.: - All mineral resources are fixed in location. The mineral extraction industry is, therefore, restricted in its operation to those areas where the resources lay. The subject site is zoned R-1 (low density residential) , but the site is not platted for residential development and is currently used for agricultural production. The Comprehensive Plan policies encourage mineral extraction prior to residential development. Residential development on the subject site could reduce the feasibility of eve' developing the minerals in question. Therefore, the proposal is consistent with the policies of the Weld County Comprehensive Plan; - The proposal is allowed as a Use by Special Review in a residential zone district; - The Greeley Planning Commission has recommended no objection to this proposal. Their concerns, however, are addressed in the Operation Standards; USR-668:85:6 Mineral Resources, Inc. (Bragg Wells) Page 2 The attached Operation Standards will make the proposal compatible with existing and future development of the surrounding area as permitted by the existing zoning and with future development as projected by the comprehensive plan of the affected municipality; - The use would be compatible with the existing surrounding land-uses. Agricultural production uses exist north, east, south and west of the subject site; - The location of the Bragg #1 and 2 wells are situated in the 100 year flood plain of the South Platte River. The placement of a tank battery at the proposed location will require compliance with Section 53 of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance and the submission of a Flood Hazard Development Permit; and - Use by Special Review Operation and Design Standards provide adequate protection of the health, safety and welfare of the neighborhood and County. The Department of Planning Services staff recommendation for approval is conditional upon the following: The attached Standards for Use by Special Review be adopted and placed on the Use by Special Review plat prior to recording . 2.

Box 86 Greeley, CO 80632 Dear Milt: I have reviewed the Weld County Planning Services referral for an app. ication from Mineral Resources, Inc. for a Use by Special Review Permit for an oil and gas production facilities in an R-1 (Low Density Residential) Zone Dstrict . The location is in the N+SW* of Section 21 , T5N, R65W; south of the Greeley City Limits and east of the Evans City Limits ; east of First Avenue. Major soils of permit request area are accurately described in the application . Those soils do indicate special requirements in the choice of chemicals used on the site because of the close presence of a shallow water table in the Aquolls and Aquents, gravelly substratum and the moderate permeability of Bankard sandy loam soils for the potential of water pollution . The future well site in the NE* SEk of Section 21 indicates that the well dill be placed next to the pond. The natural surface drainage for the area above this site will route directly through the well site. To prevent potential water pollution, a dike should be constructed around the well site to arevent surface storm drainage from carrying pollutants into the water or a dice should be constructed alorx9the western edge of the pond to prevent water entering directly into the pond. The dike height should be high enough to contain ,a 10 year 24 hour storm frequency. This should provide necessary water pollution protection from surface runoff. I recommend approval with inclustion of the above comments . Sincerely, • Ronald D.

We now feel that it would be appropriate to locate the access in the vicinity of the irrigation ditch which is approximately 150' from 32nd Ave . Our main objective is to avoid an access which would interfere with the operation of the intersection at 32nd Avenue. hI RHH/bf Weld Co.

The Commission recommended no objection to the establishment of the oil and gas use on the property a long as it complies with all City code requirements relative to oil and gas development in the Industrial District . These requirements include : setbacks , berming , fencing , signage , well casing , and stage cementing . This area has immediate contiguity to the City and is surrounded by Industrial uses and zonings . The area is designated as an Industrial Land Use area in the City of Greeley' s Comprehensive Plan , therefore , we do rot anticipate this property developing further in a residential format under the present zoning . As the City does not require the landscaping of wells in our Industrial District , no landscaping will be required on these wells . Thank you for the opportunity to review this request . If you have any questions with regard to this matter , please feel free to give me 3 cal' . Sincerely, r °�� / ir a'i 'l c Rebecca L. Safarik ' Community Development -.-k V �� Director v1 + WO Co.
