CASE NUMBER: USR-684:85:28 4 APPLICANT: Donald Carlson REQUEST: A Use by Special Review permit for livestock confinement and finishing operation. LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Part of the S1 NEZ, Section 14, T6N, R66W of the 6th P.M. , Weld County, Colorado. LOCATION: Approximately 11 miles north of the Greeley city limits; north of Colorado Highway 392 and east of Weld County Road 33. APPEARANCE: Don Carlson, applicant, appeared to present this request. Bob Ehrlich asked the applicant if he felt there would be a conflict with his chairing the meeting because of the feedlots owned and operated by his family? If so, he would step down. Mr. Carlson stated he had no objections to Mr. Erhlich chairing the meeting. Don Carlson reported this is a family owned and operated venture. This was their Grandfather's farm and he and his brothers have slowly taken over control. This application is to expand their current cattle feeding operation from 850 to 3,000 head and the hog finishing operation from 575 to 1,200 head. He explained their plans for the feedlots, runoff, odor control , and expected increase in traffic, etc. The farm is 240 acres and the feedlot area is about in the center of the property. They began their Summary of the Weld County Planning Commission Meeting July 2, 1985 Page 10 hog setup in 1984, but the cattle setup has been there for a long time. They are aware of County regulations and want to do everything legally. The hog operation will be a finishing operation only. He is a Registered Engineer in the State of Colorado and will design the compost piles and runoff ditches. A letter was sent, as a courtesy, to the residents within five hundred feet of the property informing them of their intentions. They have tried to be good neighbors and they would not ask for this expansion if they felt they were jeopardizing the neighborhood. The Chairman called for discussion from the members of the audience. Jeff Bedingfield, Attorney, represented some of the homeowners in Pinnacle Park Subdivision. Many of the residents are within one-fourth mile of this operation and they are objecting to dust, odors, and a devaluation in their properties. There is a conflict between agriculture and residential development. Residential rights must be protected as well as agricultural rights. This proposal is going from a farm use to a commercial use, and he does not feel this use is compatible with the use of the land. The people here know this property was agricultural and have no complaints about the current use, but they do not want to see this expanded. He submitted a petition from some of the residents of Pinnacle Park Subdivision. This was retained as evidence. He stated there are twenty-two residences in Filing 1 and 2. Lee Morrison explained that Weld County's Comprehensive Plan was not approved until after the first filing of Pinnacle Park was in effect. Dale Majors, resident, Seeley's Lake, presented a petition with forty-eight signatures opposing this request. This was retained as evidence. He stated they are within a mile of this proposal. Their main concerns are the odor. They sometimes get odor from Berg's Feedlot which was there when they moved there, and so they expect that. He would like the planners to consider the fact that Greeley is now known as "Stink City, U.S.A." Steve Hill, Greeley City Planner, reported the City reviewed this request and the Planning Commission had a rough time making a decision. The City's boundaries are only about six thousand feet from this request. There are Operation Standards that will need to be followed to eliminate odors. They did not make a recommendation, but they sent a copy of the minutes. The portion pertaining to this case were read into the record. Don Bartel, property owner, Pinnacle Park, spoke against this proposal. Tape 210 - Side 2 Summary of the Weld County Planning Commission Meeting June 2, 1985 Page 11 Carl Erickson felt the Carlsons' are good neighbors, but he does not want to see this approved because of dust and odors. The Chairman asked Gloria Dunn to read the recommendations, conditions, and operation standards into the record. The Chairman asked Mr. Carlson if he had any objections to anything outlined by the staff? He had none. NOTICE: Bob Ehrlich, Chairman, asked to be excused from any further proceedings on this request because of the amount of opposition to this request he would not wish anyone to feel he had prejudicial sympathies either for or against this request. Sharon Linhart, Vice Chairman, is now chairing the meeting. MOTION Paulette Weaver moved Case Number USR-684:85:28 for a Use by Special Review Permit for a livestock confinement and finishing operation 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 applicant. It this were for a new feedlot in this area she would not make this recommendation, but it is existing and has been existing for a long time. She feels it is very important to support agricultural in this area and it is important to encourage young people to stay on the farms when they are willing to continue farming, and she feels they have a well planned operation. By granting a Use by Special Review Permit there are certain standards which will have to be met that were not previously applicable. Motion seconded by Jack Holman. 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. Doug Graff - No, because the area is basically in harmony as it is. To expand this operation will tend to throw the area out of balance. It will have an impact on the area with increased odors, dust, and traffic. Lydia Dunbar — yes; for reasons already stated. Paulette Weaver — yes; Bill McMurray — yes; Louis Rademacher — yes; Jack Holman — Yes, because the farm operation has been there for a number of years and we do not want to jeopardize the fact that in order to survive they have to expand the operation because of the economics of agriculture Summary of the Weld County Planning Commission Meeting July 2, 1985 Page 12 today. So, in order to make it a viable operation they have to expand or quit. There can be odor and dust problems, but with the operation standards as outlined they will be kept to a minimum. Sharon Linhart - yes, while this is a questionable expansion she feels that the Use by Special Review Operation Standards will be in effect and will protect the area and the environment. Bob Ehrlich - Abstaining. The motion carried with six voting for the motion, one voting against the motion, and one abstaining.

After considering the Greeley Comprehensive Plan of 1971 and comments from the staff and the petitioner , the City Planning Commission was not able to provide Weld County Planning Commission with a recommendation for denial or no objection with respect to this petition . The City' s Planning Commission would , however , like to present the County Planning Commission the following suggestions : 1 ) the County use the process of revising the Comprehensive Plan as an opportunity to analyze and set policies in respect to the type of agricultural uses that are compatible with urbanizing areas ; and 2) Use by Special Review feedlot and finishing operations only be permitted in the vicinity of the City of Greeley if measures are employed to reasonably insure that the odor emanated from the operation does not exceed the level of odor emitted from a more traditional operation at use by right intensities . Measures which may be reasonable in respect are enumerated as follows : 1 ) cleaning the feedlot pens when the manure becomes deeper than a couple of inches and composting the manure ; 2) designing a drainage system and detention ponds to minimize the frequency and depth of standing water ; and 3) construction of a swine barn with automatic waste removal and underground waste storage . \ / Recorded Exemption June 28, 1985 Page 2 Attached are the minutes from Planning Commission ' s June 11 , and 25, 1985, meetings which may be helpful in understanding the issues which the City reviewed in respect to this petition .

Box 86 Greeley, CO 80632 Dear Milt: The Greeley field office staff reviewed the referral from the Weld Co. Plan- ning Service for an application from Donald Carlson for a Use by Special Review Permit for a livestock confinement and finishing operation. It is to be located in the S? NE* of Section 14, TEN, R66W; miles north of Greeley, north of Colorado Hwy . 392 and east of Weld Co. Rd . 33. Our findings during review reveal the same information as stated in the supplemental information and supporting documentation that a runoff detention pond capable of storing a 25 year/24 hour storm will need to be constructed as well as diking and diverting storm water from surrounding areas. We can ' t evaluate the adequacy of the plan as no plan was submitted for our review. Current Colorado State Health Department rules are very stringent as to necessary facilities. I would recommend that this operation be approved pending the submission of an adequate animal waste containment and management plan for State Health Department review and approval .

Proposed Use The proposed use is for confined cattle feeding and swine finishing operations. Currently, cattle feeding and swine finishing operations are in existence. We are interested in expanding our operations. 2. Need For Use Cattle feeding and swine finishing provides a market for the crops raised on our 240-acre farm and spreads our labor throughout the year. Intensifying our operations hopefully will provide income for our three families. 3 . Existing Uses On Surrounding Properties All property to the east, north and west is used for farming operations and livestock operations of variable sizes and types. South of our farm is a rural subdivision. 4 . Distance to Residential Structures East - Owner ' s houses within farmstead (1/8 mile) North - Owner ' s house (3/8 mile) West - Neighbor (3/4 mile) South - Subdivision (1/4 mile) 5. Maximum Number Users, Etc. Feeding operations require no outside people, just one to three operators. Marketing and loading activities will involve one to five additional people at the feedlot. The hog operation is 90 percent automated, with no outside people. Supplemental Information Page 2 6. Employees, Shifts, Hours No employees are involved, just three partners on call at all times with normal daytime feeding operations . 7 . Water North Weld Water District water is currently used and will be used in the future. 8 . Access Route One access is provided on the east boundary from W.C.R. 35 through farmstead area to livestock and feeding operations. 9. Vehicular Traffic Currently (as well as planned) , feeding operations for the cattle requires one to three feed trucks. Transporting cattle and hogs occurs on a weekly basis using an operator- owned 20-foot trailer and contracted semi-trailer rigs. 10 . Sewage Facilities Not applicable. 11. Fire Protection Easy access for emergency vehicles is provided, along with adequate water. 12. Types/Number Of Animals Cattle - 3, 000 head of cattle ranging from 400 pounds to 1, 200 pounds. Hogs - 1, 200 head of hogs ranging from 30 pounds to 230 pounds. Supplemental Information Page 3 13. Waste Management Facilities to contain and control runoff from a 25-year/ 24-hour precipitation event will be provided for the cattle feedlot. Solid manure will be temporarily stored in the pens, then either transported to fields during the spring or fall or to composting facilities. Wastes from the hog operation are removed from the enclosed building by a scraper system to underground storage tanks. From there, it is pumped to a slurry spreader and used as fertilizer during the fall, winter and spring. During summer months, it will be used to provide moisture for composting operations. 14. Stormwater Retention Unpolluted runoff will be diverted around the livestock area to existing drainage areas. Runoff from the feedlot area will be diverted to a solids settling pond, then to a second pond which will contain primarily runoff water. Facilities will be designed and constructed in accordance with accepted engineering practices. 15. Waste Removal Manure will be removed from facilities throughout the year as weather provides. Fertilization will generally take place during the fall, with minor applications during winter and spring months. 16. Landscaping/Erosion Control Minimal landscaping in terms of plants, etc. will be provided. However, slopes are minimal, and diversion ditches with culvert crossings are used and will be provided as necessary. It is economically necessary to maintain dry, well-graded traffic and cattle lanes at all times. Supplemental Information Page 4 17 . Reclamation Upon Cessation Corrals would be cleaned thoroughly to minimize need for any other maintenance of runoff facilities. 18 . Timetable Anticipated construction for the feedlot expansion is 1985. Hog facility expansion is anticipated in 1986 or 1987 . SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION 1. Weld County Comprehensive Plan This proposal is consistent with the Weld County Comprehensive Plan in that the use will continue to be for agricultural purposes. This proposal is for expansion of existing facilities and uses. 2. District The proposal is simply to intensify livestock operations within the existing agricultural district. Therefore, the proposal is consistent with the intent of the district. 3 . Agricultural District The area is located within an agricultural district currently, and the proposed use is agricultural. 4 . Health, Safety and Welfare Provisions The health, safety and welfare of the inhabitants of the neighborhood and county will not be adversely affected. The design and operation of the facilities are state-of-art in terms of environmental protection. Air and water quality standards have been fully incorporated into the design of existing and proposed facilities. 5. Surrounding Land Uses All surrounding land, except to the south, is used for crop and livestock production. Most of the crops grown on neighboring farms is for livestock feed, and all of the crops grown on our farm are for livestock feed. Properties located to the south (1/4 mile from feedlot) are 2. 5-acre subdivision lots with homes and pastures. Many people keep livestock (horses and cattle) on these properties year round. Supporting Documentation Page 2 6. Future Development The proposed use, agricultural livestock operations, is permitted in the existing zone and is located outside of the city limits of Greeley and Eaton. Future development in the zone will be compatible with agricultural uses . 7. Special Areas The use by special review area is not located in a flood plain, geologic hazard or Weld County Airport overlay district area. 8 . Proof Of Water Supply (See attachments. ) 9.

My Commission Expires My Commission expires: August 22, 1987 Notary Pu June 24 , 1985 Dear Pinnacle Park Residents : Recently you should have received a notice from Weld County Department of Planning concerning a special use permit for livestock operation expansion. We felt you would be interested in some of the details regarding our plans. During the past 50 years, our grandfather and parents farmed and raised livestock on this farm. My two brothers, myself and our families operate the farm and livestock facilities today. In order to support three families, we hope to expand our operations and spread our labor more evenly through- out the year. Our plans are to construct five pens for feeding cattle, three small "show" pens, two small receiving pens and a hospital area for treating sick animals . All of these will be built to the north of our present lots which includes 11 pens and two small "sick" pens and a working and loading area . The maximum total capacity at any one time would be 3000 head; however, the show pens and receiving pens will be empty much of the time, and the feeding pens are generally operated at 75 to 90 percent capacity. We hope to maintain an average of 2500 animals . In order to minimize environmental impact from the cattle feedlot, we will be incorporating several proce- dures into our operations, including: 1) Sprinkler systems for dust control and for cooling cattle; 2) Continuous cleaning of manure from pens for aerobic production of compost; 3) On-site runoff retention and control. Storm runoff water will be collected and pumped back onto pen surfaces to control dust and to keep the holding pond dry. Also, we hope to build a second hog confinement barn. Our present building holds 600 hogs ranging from 30 to 230 pounds . A second building would hold 480 hogs . We would then use our existing barn for grower pigs (30 to 130 pounds) and the second barn for finish hogs (130 to 230 pounds) . It will also be located north of the existing facilities. The building and waste manage- ment system will be totally enclosed, as with our current hog facility. The hog buildings are naturally cooled and heated, utilize foggers for cooling and dust control and have completely automatic, computerized feeding systems. Although the timetable for expansion is uncertain, we would like to obtain all necessary permits now. Please give me a call anytime if you have any questions. We intend to do all we can to be good neighbors. Cordially, WELD Com, fl,,,., ;';m, a. July 9, 1985 Utt 1 a 1985 A, Board of Weld County Commissioners rR etkv bo 915 10 Street Greeley, CO 80631 Dear Commissioners: On Tuesday July 2, 1985 I attended the public hearing before the Weld County Planning Commission. I presented them with petitions signed by 48 property owners in the Seeley Lake area to deny the enlargement of a feedlot owned by Donald Carlson. The room was filled with residents of that area opposed to this change. I felt the commission has completely ignored the fact that this feedlot is being expanded within a very short distance to many homes included in the Seeley Lake and Pinnacle Park Subdivisions. In addition it is within approximately 1 mile of recent annexed land by the City of Greeley. Greeley has earned the reputation of being the smelliest city in Colorado due to other feedlots that were located too close to our city. I ask that you turn down this request and start a trend to eliminate some of these odors. Mr. Carlson could probably purchase 10 or 12 feedlots in Weld County that have been closed down due to economic conditions. I believe the planning commission needs to take residential property owners into consideration as well as farmers. The Berg feedlot which is just 11/2 miles Northwest of Seeley Lake puts out about all the odor that we can stand. By doubling the livestock in the area, I feel Greeley will again have to live down their reputation as the smelliest city in the West. I ask you, would you want 3,000 cattle and 1 ,200 hogs living '/4 to '/Z a mile north of you? I hope your answer is no. rs truly, • Dale L.

Carlson's request for a use by special review permit for a livestock confinement and finishing opera- tion. Mr. Carlson is requesting to increase his herd capacity from his current legal capacity of 600 hogs and 840 cattle to 1200 hogs and 3,000 cattle. As homeowners living on adjacent property immediately south of Mr. Carlson' s proposed confinement and finishing operation, we are deeply concerned about the increase in odor that will necessarily accompany the three and one-half (3i) fold increase in the cattle operation and the two (2) fold increase in the hog operation. The Pinnacle Park Subdivision was developed while the Carlsons' current farm- ing operation was effective. We bought our homes based upon the current level of operations conducted by Mr. Carlson and believed the operations would not adversely affect our lifestyles. The requested use by Mr. Carlson would certainly affect our lifestyles and property uses adversely by increasing the traffic, dust from livestock pens, and, of course, the odor of manure. While we have no problems with the current operations of Mr. Carlson, we op- pose the use by special review he is requesting and we ask the Weld County Planning Commission to deny Mr. Carlson's application.

As homeowners living in the neighborhood immediately south of Mr. Carlson's proposed confinement and finishing operation, we are deeply concerned about the increase in odor that will necessarily accompany the three and one-half (3z) fold increase in the cattle operation and the two (2) fold increase in the hog operation. Our neighborhood was developed while the Carlsons' current farming operation was effective. We bought our homes based upon the current level of operations conducted by Mr. Carlson and believed the operations would not adversely affect our lifestyles. The requested use by Mr. Carlson would certainly affect our lifestyles and property uses adversely by increasing the traffic, dust from livestock pens , and, of course, the odor of manure. While we have no problems with the current operations of Mr. Carlson, we op- pose the use by special review he is requesting and we ask the Weld County Planning Commission to deny Mr. Carlson's application.
