NEED FOR USE An additional market outlet for farmers will be created in the operation which will require alfalfa hay, corn silage and by-products of Western Sugar Company of Greeley , Anheuser Busch of Fort Collins , and Coors Biotech of Johnstown. The ultimate need is to provide adequate lamb supplies for the Denver Lamb Company. NEIGHBORHOOD PROPERTY USES The subject property is located in a farming and livestock feeding agricultural area which would conform and be compatible with the most recent Weld County Comprehensive Plan. Located one-half mile west is a cattle feedlot , adjacent to the north is a dairy, a farm and auto salvage junkyard is located to the east, and the land to the south is farmed. NEARBY RESIDENCES The nearest residences to the west are located on Weld County Road 15 , which is one-half mile from the subject property. Three residences are located north of the SE 1/4 of Section 8-5-67 , one of which is at the dairy adjacent to the subject property. Two residences are located to the South on Highway. 34 and there are no residences to the east. OPERATIONAL RELEVANT INFORMATION The Weld County Zoning Ordinance would allow a sheep feeding operation of 6 , 000 head on this 150 acre property. For a more economically feasible operation, we request a use by special review for a maximum lamb feeding operation of 20 , 000 head. The farming and feeding operation would require 3 to 4 employees and the hours of operation will be daylight hours . The water source for domestic and livestock useage will be supplied by Little Thompson Water District with lines adjacent to the property. The adjudicated lake at the boundary of the property will provide the dust control. Highway 34 and Weld County Road 17 presently have existing accesses that will be used for the residence and the feedlot . No additional accesses will be needed. Trucks will utilize both roads for feedstuffs hauled in, livestock hauled in and out, and waste hauled away. An average of four 25 ton semiloads daily will serve this operation. Waste removal will be throughout the year as weather permits. Waste stock- piles will only accumulate when weather may prohibit removal . HEALTH STANDARDS This proposed project has been discussed with Mr. Vince Lewis of the USDA Soil Conservation Service and Mr. Wes Potter of Weld County Public Health. At this time , there are no apparent limitations that may jeopardize any health standards . Slopes for drainage and soil types provide ideal safeguards preventing contamination of underground and surface waters . It has been agreed that all health standards of Weld County Public Health and Colorado Department of Health can and will be met. The design, engineering, construction and operation will provide for the protection of all Weld County residents . Runoff, dust and flies will be constantly monitored and controlled. 870421 DESIGN STANDARDS FOR USE BY SPECIAL REVIEW ORDINANCE SECTION 24 . 5 SECTION 24.5.1 Past performance of feedlots operated by Bragdon and Rule demonstrate compliance in design standards required by Weld County Ordinances . SECTION 24.5.1.1 Water service is available and will be provided by b ` T.hnmp on Water District and an adjudicated lake existing on the property. Greeley-Loveland Irrigation District will provide water for the farming operation. SECTION 24.5.1.2 Adequate sewer service is not available and not essential for the use under consideration. SECTION 24.5.1.3 • Attached U.S. Soil Conservation Service soil reports detail soil conditions as they relate to the application . SECTION 24.5.1.4 The property is located in the Windsor/Severance Fire Protection District and additional fire protection is available with the adjudicated lake and the pumps located on the property. SECTION 24.5.1.5.1 A storm water retention lagoon will be designed and located as shown on the plot plan and willmeet the requirements of this Section. SECTION 24.5.1. 5.2 This storm water retention lagoon will release no retained storm water and will be pumped back to adjacent farmland . SECTION 24.5.1. 6 Sheltered vehicle storage and parking will be provided on site as detailed in the plot plan. SECTION 24.5.1.7 The use complies with all setback and offset requirements of the agricultural zone district as shown in the plot plan. SECTION 24. 5.1.8 The access shall be located at the northeast corner of the site onto Weld County Road 17 which has a low traffic volume . SECTION 24.5.1. 9 No new access to public rights-of-way will be constructed. 870421 • SECTION 24. 5.1.10 Proposed use will be compatible with the adjacent dairy to the north which should not require any buffering or screening . However, trees will be planted along the north boundary to serve as a windbreak, which may create a buffering or screening effect for adjacent property. SECTION 24. 5.1. 11 The feeding operation will be located on the northeast corner of the SE 1/4 of Section 8 which is very difficult to irrigate due to the slopes . However, these slopes provide optimum drainage for a feeding operation. 870421 OPERATION STANDARDS FOR USE BY SPECIAL REVIEW ORDINANCE SECTION 24 . 6 SECTION 24. 6.1 Previous and present operations demonstrate Applicant ' s conformance of operational standards . SECTION 24. 6.1.1 Not Applicable. SECTION 24. 6.1.2 Air quality controls will be maintained by use of lake water for dust control . SECTION 24.6.1. 3 Water quality controls will be maintained in that no runoff water will be allowed to drain from the property site. SECTION 24. 6.1.4.1 Lighting of feeding operation will not shine or reflect onto adjacent properties . SECTION 24.6.1.4.2 Lighting will be at a distance from Weld County Road 17 so as to not affect travel on that road. SECTION 24. 6.1.5 Not applicable. SECTION 24.6.1.6 Farming operation will be converted to pasture for grazing which would prohibit forage growth of taller than twelve inches. Noxious weeds will be controlled. • 870421 ORDINANCE SECTION 24 . 7 This application for Use by Special Review is for a sheep feeding and farming operation to be located on the SE 1/4 of Section 8 , Township 5 North, Range 67 West of the 6th P.M. , Weld County, Colorado. This property is located in the agricultural zoned district of the western portion of Weld County. This application will demonstrate conformity with the Weld County Comprehensive Plan Agricultural Policies and Goals . This application will detail the compliance and adherence to each and every section of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance and compatibility with surrounding land use. SECTION 24. 7.1 Lamb feeding in Northern Colorado has had a very stable and significant economic influence for many years . The Weld County climate , feed supplies and location for lambs has provided the ideal elements essential for this successful industry. This proposal is for expansion of this agricultural industry in Weld County. SECTION 24.7.1.1 This proposed development specifically supports the stated Comprehensive Plan to "protect and promote the County ' s agricultural industry. " This development will maximize the agricultural use of agricultural land and meets all Comprehensive Plan Agricultural Goals attached. SECTION 24.7.1.2 The consistency of intent with the Agricultural Zoning District is that the proposed development will intensify land utilization providing added market outlets for neighboring farm production and an added tax base for Weld County. SECTION 24.7.1.3 The proposed site for this lamb feeding and farming operation is centered in an area of agricultural production. Surrounding lands are farmed and the SE 1/4 of 8-5-67 , the proposed site , is one-half mile east of a cattle feedlot, directly south of a dairy, west of an adjacent farm and an auto junkyard, all on the north side of Highway 34 . SECTION 24.7.1. 4 Uses as stated above referencing Section 24 . 7 . 1 are compatible with future agricultural development goals of the Comprehensive Plan and the uses of this site are not in the growth plans of any municipalities . SECTION 24.7.1.5 - The proposed- site is not located in any Overlay District Area. SECTION 24.7.1.6 The proposed location, the SE 1/4 of 8-5-67 has marginally adequate water for row crop farming. Twenty-four acres • in the northeast quadrant of the property will be converted to feeding pens . This portion of the property is rolling and not easily irrigated. 870421 The slope, however, is ideal for feeding pen drainage and drying, being a slope of approximately 2% to the south and west. Removal of these 24 acres from row crop production will provide adequate irrigation water for the remaining 126 acres without disrupting maximum irrigation water utilization. SECTION 24.7.1.7 Adequate drainage retention of the 24 acres for feeding pens is easily accomplished with the 2% slope to a flat plane at the midway point of the quarter or lower end of the feeding pens . The adjudicated lake water on the property will enable dust control for the health of the animals and the neighborhood.
