Moved by Jean Hoffman that the following resolution be introducted-fdr'pdssage by the Weld County Planning Commission. Be it resolved by the Weld County Planning Commission that the application for: NAME: Environmental Recycling & Disposal Company, c/o Mr. Ted Zigan ADDRESS: 2200 E. 104th Avenue, #214B Thornton, CO 80233 REQUEST: A Certificate of Designation for an Environmental Recycling and Solid Waste Disposal Site and Facility. LEGAL DESCRIPTION: The W2 of Section 28, T1N, R68W of the 6th P.M. , Weld County, Colorado. LOCATION; South of and adjacent to the Town of Erie and Weld County Road 6; east of and adjacent to Weld County Road 5. be recommended unfavorably to the Board o£ County Commissioners for the following reasons: 1. In accordance with Section 24.3.1.1 of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance, the applicant has not demonstrated the proposal is in compliance with the Weld County Comprehensive Plan. The proposed recycling and solid waste disposal site and facility is located within the urban growth boundary areas of the Cities of Broomfield, Thornton, and Northglenn and the Town of Erie. The location of the proposed use requires the applicant to demonstrate compliance with the urban growth boundary goals and policies listed in the Weld County Comprehensive Plan. An urban growth boundary is an area located within three miles of a municipality where future municipal uses and services are planned. Weld County urban growth boundary 3oals and policies are intended to allow the County and municipalities an opportunity to coordinate plans, policies, and land-use standards affecting orderly development. Through the County's referral process, representatives from the Cities of Broomfield and Thornton and the Town of Erie have indicated the proposed recycling and solid waste disposal site and facility is not compatible with the future land-use plans in this urban growth boundary area. Municipal representatives within this urban growth boundary area have expressed concerns about the regional character of the use, the location, and the compatibility with existing and future land uses. As a result, the proposed recycling and solid waste disposal site and facility is not in compliance with the Weld County Comprehensive Plan. 2. The applicant has not demonstrated the proposed recycling and solid waste disposal site and facility is compatible with existing surrounding land uses as required by Section 24.3.1.3 of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance. Carol Heights, Leisure Living, and Ranch Eggs are subdivisions located east and southeast of the proposed use in unincorporated Weld County. all; G RESOLUTION, CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATION Environmental Recycling and Disposal Company Page 2 These subdivisions contain approximately 72 residential home sites located 800 feet to a 1 1/4 miles from the proposed special review permit area. The Erie Air Park is located within the Town of Erie, southwest of the proposed use. This subdivision contains approximately 127 residential home sites within 1 1/2 miles of the proposed special review permit area. A regional solid waste disposal site and facility is not compatible with the surrounding residential development. Potential negative impacts associated with the proposed use include windblown trash, fugitive dust, truck traffic, odor, and noise and visual pollution. 3. The applicant has not demonstrated the proposal will comply with Section 24.3.1.4 of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance. Section 24.3.1.4 requires the proposed use to be compatible with future development of the surrounding area as projected by the comprehensive plan or master plans of affected municipalities. The Broomfield City Council, in a letter dated September 20, 1990, recommended denial of the proposed recycling and solid waste disposal site and facility. A representative of the City indicated the proposed use was not located in an appropriate area due to the high visibility of the proposed site and the incompatibility of the proposed use with other municipal uses planned for the area. In a letter dated January 28, 1991, a representative of Broomfield explained the future land uses planned by the City include a high quality office park west of I-25 along the north side of State Highway 7, and residential development north of the planned office park in the area of the proposed recycling and solid waste disposal site and facility. In a public meeting on May 14, 1991, the Broomfield City Council considered the Environmental Recycling and Disposal Company's application and the City' s referral letter of September 20, 1990 and reaffirmed a recommendation of denial. The Erie Town Administrator, in letters dated October 3, 1990, February 1, 1991, and March 12, 1991, stated that Erie' s planning and zoning commission recommended denial of the proposed use. Representatives of the Town of Erie indicated the proposed use was not compatible with its comprehensive plan and that residential and commercial uses were planned in this area. The expansion of residential uses east of the Erie Air Park and the expansion of Ranch Eggs were also projected as future development that would be incompatible with the proposed recycling and solid waste disposal site and facility. The Thornton Planning and Development Manager, in a letter dated March 13, 1991, recommended denial of the proposed use because there is not an immediate need for new landfill facilities in the area. The letter also explained that the impacts to existing residential uses and growth associated with the proposed E-470 Highway and the new international airport should be studied before additional landfill sitings take place in this area. RESOLUTION, CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATION Environemental Recycling and Disposal Company Page 3 4. In accordance with Section 45.4.2 of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance, the applicant has not demonstrated a need for a recycling and solid waste disposal site and facility in this area. There are two regional solid waste disposal sites located and operating within one-half mile of the proposed site. Based upon current use rates these two existing sites have an estimated life expectancy of ten years. Representatives of the Town of Erie are currently planning, with a private developer, to site a regional solid waste disposal site and facility approximately one-half mile north of the proposed site. This facility is projected to have a 12.5 year life expectancy. Representatives of the Town of Dacono are also currently planning, with a private developer, to site a regional solid waste disposal site and facility approximately 5.5 miles northeast of the proposed site. This facility is projected to have a 20 year life expectancy. Based upon the fact that there are 2 operating regional solid waste disposal sites in the area and 2 regional solid waste disposal sites proposed by municipalities in the area, the applicant has not demonstrated a need for this proposed use.
