APPEARANCE: Thomas Baur, property owner and applicant, stated they want to -remodel an existing barn on the 23 acres they own to make a home business for -high precision optics. This would enable them to separate the business from their living -quarters. They currently employ four people, but they would like to employ twelve including himself. There is an -existing septic system that was previously used for a mobile home prior to their purchasing the property.

No.817. 0nd—Short Form--Bradford Publishing Co.,182416 Stout Street,Denver,Colorado. 3-76 1''� 8 /1139 May 8, 1987 Use by Special Review Application Materials I propose to continue using a portion of my home and space in two existing outbuildings on my ranch for my business which is Meadowlark Optics. Meadowlark Optics is a small company which caters to the needs of users of high precision optics. The services we offer include optical, mechanical and electronic design for electro—optic systems; optical coating; and fabrication of custom electro—optical systems. We also design, coat, assemble, test and sell -a line of standard and custom precision polarization optics components. We do not make eyeglasses are any other opthalmological products. Me reach our customer through advertisements in national trade journals and in national directories of the precision optics industry. Orders are received by telephone and by mail. Customers very seldom visit us; we see one every few months. Most items we sell are small and expensive, usually shipped by UPS from Longmont. Our average order size is roughly $500 and an average weight of the ordered item is a few ounces. We usually ship five to ten packages per week. Our customers are located throughout the United States and Europe. Our customers include NASA, major defense contractors, many universities, national research institutions, optical disk memory manufacturers and manufacturers of lasers and laser surgery -equipment. There are presently two full—time production employees at our business. In addition, there are two FTEs to provide administrative support and one engineer hired on a temporary project basis to develop a new product for the 871139 Page 2 company. The exact number of employees varies to some extent with the work load. We also frequently contract with other engineers and sales people who work entirely off the premises. Hours of operation are• approximately 7:00 AM until 6:00 PM Monday through Friday. I usually work alone on the weekends. The maximum number of employees presently working for me is five. I plan to add two more employees in the coming year. A guess regarding future hiring is that I will add two employees in each subsequent year. Twelve people including myself is the maximum number that will ever by employed while the business is located on the farm. At our projected growth rate we will reach this limit in about three years and we will then need to move the business to grow further. My present plans are to grow to 20 employees in five years. Our business is owned and run by myself and my wife Jeanne. I am the president and treasurer and Jeanne is the secretary of the corporation. Together we own 88.4% of the stock, with the remainder owned by employees and close friends. I work full time for the business (an average of 80 hours per week over the past year) and Jeanne helps me with market research and planning activities evenings and weekends. She also has a full-time job outside the company to support us both until the corporation can afford to pay me and to hire her. Meadowlark Optics is the recipient of a State of Colorado QIC loan. This loan program is intended to encourage development of promising small businesses in Colorado. Our sales have increased at a rate of more than 100% per year since our incorporation in 1981. However, we are still not strong enough financially to move into a complete, integrated industrially—zoned facility. We made an attempt to do so last fall, but all four banks that we approached for funding strongly advised us to stay at our present location. 871139 Page 3 The surrounding properties are primarily used for agriculture. Some of the land is cropland and some is grazing land for cattle and sheep. One neighbor, pr. Ken Neuens, operates a veterinary facility for horses on his property. The water source is Left Hand Water Supply. We have one optical coating machine which uses 30 gallons of water per hour when it is operating (about 40 hours per week). We use an average of less than 10,000 gallons of water per month including water for livestock and domestic use. Access routes to the business are provided by a driveway connecting to both Road 1 and to Road 16 1/2. Vehicular traffic associated with the business is primarily from the automobiles of the employees. A United Parcel Service truck stops by most days and approximately once every month another parcel delivery truck will stop by. As explained earlier, we almost never have customers visit the premises. The sewage facilities consist of a septic tank and leach field for the house and another septic tank and leach field for the barn. Fire protection measures will include fire extinguishers located in all buildings and smoke alarms in the barn and the house. We use small quantities of flammable organic solvents in the business. These are stored and used in a small (100 square foot) shed separated from other buildings to reduce the risk of fire to the main buildings and to the employees. Our optics business does not involve animals, although I usually graze about 10 cattle on the land. I will continue to use my land for grazing cattle in the future. The optics business will not reduce the level of ranching activity of the land. 871139 Page 4 There are no industrial wastes disposed of on the farm. We have a trash pickup weekly by Western Disposal and it is usually three trash cans, including domestic trash. We use small quantities of organic solvents and some acids and bases in our business. The complete list of chemicals that are of potential interest is attached. Waste solvents are being stored until the quantity becomes large enough to warrant hiring a licensed chemical waste disposal company to dispose of it off site. We have accumulated less than 20 gallons of these waste solvents. Waste acids and bases are diluted and neutralized using standard chemical procedures, and the resulting water and salts are then poured out. This amounts to less than two gallons per year of water with probably less than eight ounces of dissolved salts, some of which are actually quite good fertilizers. I have a strong personal as well as professional interest in maintaining a safe and unpolluted environment. I served actively for several years on the Weld County Board of Health and worked primarily on environmental issues. I also chaired the Public Health Needs Committee for Weld County, which addressed chemical pollution issues. There are no storm water retention facilities associated with the proposed use. We plan to plant some grass for a small lawn to the south of the barn and to add some gravel to the driveway when money is available. We also plan to add a privacy fence around the parking area to reduce visibility of parked cars. We expect to complete the first phase of construction in one month after County approval. This phase is to finish construction on the first floor of the barn. The second phase, which is remodelling of the second floor of the 871139 Page 5 barn will probably be completed in twelve months. The pace of this work will depend on the financial fortunes of the business. The third phase which is to remodel about 200 square feet in an attached loafing barn and about 200 square feet in the silo, is optional again depending on financial circumstances. If this is done the earliest the work is likely to be completed in 2 years. There are no plans for reclamation procedures at the time the business leaves the ranch. In fact the proposed construction for the business is a major reclamation of a run down old barn. The proposal is consistent with the Weld County Comprehensive Plan because it does not disturb the rural nature of our surroundings. It does not remove any land from agricultural use and still leaves me with an adequate amount of barn space for my cattle and feed. We are remodelling an existing, previously unused, barn And therefore are not using up any farm land at all. The area used for parking cars was formerly a lot for a mobile home which I have removed from the property. The work we do poses no threat to the health, safety and welfare of the inhabitants of the neighborhood and the county. We have therefore made no provisions to protect these things. As stated earlier, the surrounding land is used primarily for crop production and grazing. The following is a list of uses of all adjacent land parcels. 871139 -Page 6 Jim Sawdey-crop land and residential Arnold Hinkley-grazing and residential Sandor Toth-crop land John True-grazing land and residential Bob Muheim-grazing land and residential Ken Neuens-grazing land, veterinary facility for horses and residential Douglas McDonald-grazing and residential I have discussed our business plans with all of these neighbors and none of them object to the proposed use of my buildings. Some of the neighbors have been very supportive of my efforts and have written letters on my behalf to accompany this application. Since the future use of -this land is expected to remain the same as now, according to the Weld County _Comprehensive Plan, the compatibility of the business with the neighborhood should continue in the future. The use by special review area is not located in a flood plain, geologic hazard nor is it an a Weld County Airport overlay district area; and the application complies with section 50, overlay district regulations as outlined in the Weld County Zoning Ordinance. The Department of Planning Services has waived the requirement for a noise report. The soil types as obtained from the Soil Conservation Service are shown on the vicinity map. The main soil in the proposed use area is Olney fine sandy loam (1-3% slope). It is a deep well drained soil. The permeability is -moderate; it has a low shrink—swell potential.

Tom has been our closest neighbor for over 8 years, and we have always felt that we were very fortunate to have a person of his quality living next to us. He has made a real effort to keep us informed of his plans regarding his business, and exactly what he was doing. We are not aware of any concerns of other neighbors relating to Tom's business of of his plans to convert his barn for use by his business. His efforts to improve his barn, we believe, actually improve its aesthetic qualities. His business causes no disturbance to us, and we believe it will remain com- patible with our neighborhood if his application is approved. We sincerely support Tom's request for a Use by Special Review Application for his optics business and would ask that you grant -this as soon as possible so that he may finish the remodeling of his barn.
