McDonald REQUEST: Amend Development Standards 1 , 5, 6, 8, and add Development Standard 17 for a Use by Special Review Permit for an airport. LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Part Els Wks SW'-a, Section 25, T2N, R68W of the 6th P.M. , Weld County, Colorado. LOCATION: 1/2 mile west of Frederick on Weld County Road 16. Gloria Dunn explained that the applicant is wanting to change the number of planes permanently based there from twelve to twenty—five; the structures on the property are now clearly defined; increase the accesses to the west to five, to allow the five property owners to the west private access from their property; change the hours of operation from sunup to sunset; and to repair aircraft commercially. APPEARANCE: James M. McDonald, applicant and property owner, reported the airport has been in existence for many years, but he obtained a Special Use Permit to operate the airport in 1968. The runway is quite short and therefore, limits the size of planes that can use it. Rod Allison reported the staff has received only one objection to this proposal. The use of the airport has been expanded and this is an attempt to bring what is actually going on there into conformance with the standards as outlined by the staff. The Chairman asked Mr. McDonald if he had read the recommendations, conditions, and operation standards as outlined by the Department of Planning Services staff. He stated he had and has no objections to anything as outlined. The Chairman called for discussion from the audience. Helen Jubenville, surrounding property owner, stated she objects to the change of hours the airport can be in operation. It was her feeling each persons interpretation of sundown are different, and she does not feel the hours should be expanded. Ed Verson, surrounding property owner, spoke in support of this request. He stated the runway does not have any lighting, therefore, hours of operation are limited to daylight hours. Summary of the Weld County Planning Commission Meeting May 7, 1985 Page 10 Tape 202 - Side 1 The Chairman asked Gloria Dunn to read the recommendations, conditions, and operation standards as outlined by the Department of Planning Services staff into the record. The Planning Commission discussed the definition of junk and inoperative vehicles. MOTION: Jack Holman moved the new proposed Operation Standard #6 be eliminated and that the hours of operation refer back to the old Operation Standards. Motion seconded by Sharon Linhart. The Chairman called for discussion from the members of the Planning Commission. Discussion followed. The Chairman asked the Planning Commission for their decision. Motion carried unanimously. Rod Allison amended Operation Standard #16 to read as follows: 16. Junk aircraft shall not be stored on the property except within the screened area provided by the solid security fence. The security fence shall also enclose all aircraft salvage parts and aircraft maintenance equipment kept on the site. Junk automobiles or other junk vehicles shall not he stored on the property. A junk car or vehicle shall be construed to be any dismantled, unlicensed or inoperative vehicle. MOTION: Sharon Linhart moved Operation Standard 1/16 be amended to read as amended by the staff.

Motion seconded by Sharon Linhart. The Chairman called for discussion from the members of the Planning Commission. Discussion followed.

It appeared that there would be someone on site to manage the airport. Now, at the hearing, the testimony of the applicant is not supporting this. Paulette Weaver - yes; Jack Holman - Yes, but we do need to continue to look at the Operation Standards and see that the applicant is abiding by them. Sharon Linhart — yes; Bob Ehrlich — no.

McDonald proposed land development. We have no conflicts or reservations with this plan although there are a few things that we should bring to your attention: 1. The soil is Olney fine sandy loam. It has a low shrink- swell potential and the pH is neutral to alkaline (6.6 8.4) . It has a low frost action potential and bedrock is greater than 60 inches deep. According to the Weld County soil survey, Olney soils are not located on a flood plain and the water table depth is more than 6 feet. 2. Building and construction limitations are slight and should pose no problems. However, this soil does have a rapid permeability rate which prohibits sewage lagoon construction due to water table pollution problems. Also, Olney soils tend to corrode steel rather quickly but pose no problems on concrete. Limitations are slight for shallow excavations, dwellings with and/or without basements, small commercial buildings, septic tanks and absorption fields. This soil has moderate limitations for roads because of its low adhesive strength. If we can be of any assistance or answer any questions, please feel free to contact us. Thanks for the opportunity to comment on this development. Sincerely, }2? • Alva M. Dodd, Jr. (/ President CONSERVATION - DEVELOPMENT - SELF-GOVERNMENT ( .

Renner,Chair In response to your letter of June 25, 1985, concerning an application of James McDonald, which you acted upon some 20 days previously, y our findings were unfavorable for several reasons and you wish to go on record. I, too would like to go on record. Let' s take it from the top. Since 1973 I have enjoyed the hospitality of Jim McDonald. Keeping my air- plane on or near his airport. I got my pilots license flying from this air- port. In 1977, prior to purchasing this property (7462 WCR 11) I made two trips to the Weld County Courthouse exploring zoning, use, covenances, easements, variances etc. Part of my findings were: Zoned Agriculture, with certain limits, No restrictions on vehicles, machinery, or equipment, Road easements North and South and East and West, (book 86 page 273) Pole line easements N&S And E&W (book 833 page 432). Also my title policy excludes among other things, ALL EXISTING ROADS, hiways, ditches, utilities etc. An aerial photograph of section 25 made in 1938, on record in the Weld County Clerk's office clearly shows this airport and my access to it. The purposes of my concern were to purchase this property and make my home on this airport. A place to keep my airplane, build a house and retire in 1988. Closure of, or over restrictive mandates will seriously devalue and totally destroy my retirement and my home. A flying community near Erie, Colo., saw land values go from $400. per acre to $18,000. in less than 10 year on the strength of a airport runway. How much tax has that generated? You mention in your letter to Chairman Johnson, Weld County Commissioners that: 1 . Additional information is needed--You are surrounded with information, - every fixed base operator will be happy to show you anything you wish. Air- craft Owners and Pilots Association publish the Airmans Information Manual and Airport Directory annually. These publications address every concievable question. You hav'nt done your homework. 2. Mr. McDonald should have been present--Why dignify this absurbity with an acknowledgement? Surely you realize people have things to do besides being available at someones elses convenience. Why don't you take him a sandwich and jug of coffee, and just ask him what you need to know? 3. No of Airworthy Aircraft--What is next Ms Renner, boats, Campers, motorcycles, Lawnmowers, Weedeaters, Chainsaws, and what about that old Church, must you do it in too? An airworthy airplane is an investment by the owner, taxed by numerous agencies, insured'usually by locals, maintained by locals, Inspected 2. by Federally Licensed Inspectors. Very few private airplanes fly 200 hours a year, some very little. Thier purpose provide the owner with a means of recreation, a hobby, something to go pet Sunday afternoon and visit with the guys & gals, but the utility value defies description--It is 918 miles from Denver to Dallas--18 hours of hard driving, or 6 hours in just a very small airplane. Inagine San Diego and back--today. 4. 5. 7. & 8. --We go weeks at a time with no takeoffs or landings. You disagree with uncontrolled air traffic. The last time I checked, the state of Kansas had 1 (1 ) controlled airport--Salina. They are the home of Cessna and Beech Aircraft Companies, and they produce the most pilots of any state except Alaska. Colorado has 10 controlled airports. Buckley Air National Guard, Butts A.F.B., and Airforce Academy, military and generally avoided by general aviation. Jefferson County, Grand Junction, Aspen, Pueblo are part time under specified hours. This leaves 3 full time controlled airports in the state of Colorado. Stapleton, Arapahoe, and Peterson.--I submit you dont know what controlled-uncontrolled traffic means. You elude to safety and fire protection when you can't think of anything else but you fail to tell us where to go to have a fire or break a leg in complete comfort and safety. An airman from the first day is drilled and browbeat with procedure and technique. Prevention is the solution, but practice is the only known cure. Aircraft are required to have fuel shut-off, Master shut-off, Ignition Shut-off, all controlled independently by the pilot. Fire is bad news but there isn't an Airport in the world completely immune to fire or accident. What is your answer to banana skins on the sidewalk, roller skates at the top of the stairs or soap in the bathtub? 6. Hours of operation: Visible Flight Regulations as defined by the F.A.A. are practiced world wide. Maybe some day they will be as smart as Tri-Area Planning Commission. tr The F.A.A. has previously defined this airport. Thier reply to your inquiry will no doubt be short and firm. I consider the action of Tri-Area Planning Commission a serious threat to our community. The airport is NEEDED. It is not Tax Supported. It has provided many community services, and for a long,long time. I consider your actions and statements a flagrant violation of my rights under the 4th ammendment of the constitution.

JUN 71985 s:,:i:iiMrs . Jacqueline Johnson GREELEY, COLO Chairman Board of County Commissioners Welc County Greeley, CO 80631 Dear Mrs . Johnson: The application from James M. McDonald to amend Development Standards 1 , 5 , 6 and 8 of USR-537 : 82: 52 and add Development Standard 17 was heard at the regular meeting of the Tri-Area Planning Commission on June 4 , 1985. Although, we are aware this issue has come before the Board of County Commissioners , we feel you should know our concerns and reasons for denial of said application and would like this letter to go on record . 1 . Additional information is needed in order to give full consideration to this application. 2 . Ar. McDonald should have been present to answer questions regarding his application . 3 . The number of airworthy aircraft should stay at 12 and not be raised to 25 . 4 . The restriction of 25 take offs and landings should not be removed . We do not agree with uncontrolled traffic in lieu of all conversations and policies and , should there be uncon- trolled landings and take offs , fire protection should be on site . Having uncontrolled traffic could lead to a very serious accident. 5 . The site should not be used for storage of equipment which could become hazardous . 6 . Hours of operation set down by the Board of County Commissioners should not be changed - dawn to 8 p .m. or sunset , whichever occurs first is sufficient. i y . Mrs . Jacqueline Johnson Chairman Board of County Commissioners Weld County June 5 , 1985 Page 2 7 . In looking at the application it nowhere states that Longmont Rural Fire Protection or the Ambulance District have been notified to make provisions in case of an emergency. It was suggested that Longmont Rural Fire Protection physically see the set up proposed by Mr . McDonald . 8 . We do not feel that this proposal provides adequate protection for the health, safety and welfare to the neighborhood and County. At the request of a member of the Tri-Area Planning Commission , the Chair , Iva Renner will be calling the regional FAA office to find out exactly what the rules and regulations are for this type of situation . Further discussion brought about this statement from George Snead , Councilman for the Town of Frederick . Mr . George Snead said , "as a member of the Frederick Town Board he is very much opposed to this request and legal action should be taken if this is pursued . " As you can see , we , as a Planning Commission are very much opposed to this type of situation and should you have any further questions , please do not hesitate to call .

After great discussion the Commission denied application and directed a letter to Mrs .

During discussion of this application a point was made concerning the access road you would like to have on your property to the now existing airport. Have you considered what this type of situation would do to your insurance rates if it were approved? And , most importantly, have you taken into consideration the safety and welfare of your family and home should this pass? It is our job as a Planning Commission to take into consideration the safety and welfare of all in the community , as it also is , to look at expanding future growth. We ask that you reconsider your approval of this request from Mr. McDonald and voice your opinions . Should you have comments or questions , please feel free to write to us. Thank you .
