Sincerely, ML�/� 7)Cr1:1/44-eala ) Monica Daniels-Mika Current Planner MDM/sfr 940262 DATE: December 21, 1993 CASE NUMBER: S-349 and S-350 NAME: Ivar and Donna Larson ADDRESS: 925 N. County Road, Route 1, Berthoud, CO 80513 REQUEST: Minor Subdivision Final Plat (Whitetail #1 and Whitetail #/2) . LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Part of the E2 of Section 14, T4N, R6SW of the 6th P.M. , Weld County, Colorado. LOCATION: Approximately 2 1/2 miles southwest of Johnstown City limits. THE DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING SERVICES' STAFF RECOMMENDS THAT THIS REQUEST BE DENIED FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS: 1. It is the opinion of the Department of Planning Services' staff that the applicants have not shown compliance with Section 4.5.9 of the Weld County Subdivision Ordinance as follows: The proposed Minor Subdivision Final Plat is not consistent with the Weld County Comprehensive Plan and is not compatible with the surrounding area of rural residences and agricultural uses. This property is zoned A (Agricultural) . The Agricultural zone district was established to maintain and preserve the agricultural base of the County. This proposal will take 191 acres of farm land out of production. The Comprehensive Plan attempts to minimize the incompatibilities that occur between agricultural and urban uses, and this request will not only increase incompatible uses, but it will make current farming practices in the area far more difficult. The Comprehensive Plan discourages the conversion of agricultural land to urban uses. This policy is intended to promote the use of agricultural land and to support a phased growth plan in the County. While low density single-family residential developments have been permitted in the area it is not a policy which is encouraged by the Comprehensive plan. The potential for increased interference with the neighboring rural uses is probable. Additionally, maximum efficiency and economy cannot be achieved because the cost of this development will be far greater for the general public than any revenues generated by this development. EA# 16iT- 940262 RECOMMENDATION, 5-349 Ivar and Donna Larson Page 2 The Weld County Comprehensive Plan encourages minimizing the costs to taxpayers but providing additional public services in rural areas for uses that require services on an urban level. Police and fire protection as well as public road maintenance provided to non-urban areas becomes increasingly less cost effective as rural areas continue to be subdivided. There are four soil types located on this site three of which are identified as prime farmland if irrigated with adequate water. Two of these soils, Nunn Clay Loam 1-3% slope, and Weld Loam 3-5% slope are considered to have high potential for dry crop land as well. These soils have been further classified as "farmlands of statewide importance. " (U.S. Department of Agricultural Soil Conservation Service) September 7, 1993. It is not the policy of the Comprehensive Plan to convert these farmlands into urban uses. These lands are more than adequate for farm production. The current general use of the surrounding area is agricultural. The Centennial Farm is located close to this site. The scale and density of this proposal far exceeds the current nature of the area. Based on census data this site will generate 34 additional people in this area. With an increase in density, noise levels, and traffic generated, the general overall appearance of this area will change from rural to urban. The applicants are proposing to subdivide 191 acres of farmland into 12 acreages with an average lot size of 15 acres, more or less. However, in a previous application (Mountain View) the applicants stated the difficulties they were having in farming their 25 acre farm. Staff is concerned with this contradiction, if they are not able to adequately farm their small farm then how will the owner of Whitetail lots be able to farm similar size lots. This proposal does not encourage the preservation of agricultural uses in Weld County. Staff has received verbal opposition to this request and 11 letters of clarification. The surrounding property owners are concerned about preserving their rural lifestyle, the impact this development will have on their present farming practices, and the increase in density this subdivision will produce. This recommendation for denial is based, in part, upon a review of the application materials submitted by the applicant, other relevant information regarding the request, responses from referral entities, and several conversations with surrounding property owners in opposition to this request. 940262 SURROUNDING PROPERTY OWNERS AND/OR SUBSURFACE ESTATE/INTEREST OWNERS Ivar and Donna Larson S-350 Chester Cresswell and Company, et al. 2009 Ponderosa Drive Loveland, CO 80537 Clifford, Baird and Katherine Betz 20166 1-25 Access Road Berthoud, CO 80516 Frances Rutt 4521 Weld County Road 44 Berthoud, CO 80513 Roger and Francis Steinke 4686 Weld County Road 46 Berthoud, CO 80513 Michael and Barbara Soleta 4912 Weld County Road 46 Berthoud, CO 80513 Colleen, Bryant, and Peggy Root, Trustees 4968 Weld County Road 46 Berthoud, CO 80513 Northwest Bank Denver, Trustee c/o Real Estate Investments (Purdy Trust) 1700 Broadway Denver, CO 80274 R.B.

Mr. Chuck Cunliffe, Director Department of Planning Services 1400 N. 17th Avenue Greeley, Colorado 80631 RE: AgView Estates I and II Minor Subdivisions CASE #: S333 and S334 Dear Mr. Cunliffe: • This letter is drafted to present information to the Weld County Planning Department relative to establishing the compliance of the AgView Estates Projects with the Weld County Comprehensive Plan. The projects, as proposed, represent the minor subdivision of two contiguous tracts in the Fast 1/2, S.14, T.4N., R.68W. The projects have frontage on Weld County Road 46 and an existing public assess easement. The two parcels of land are located within three miles of Johnstown in the Urban Growth Area. The properties in the immediate vicinity are existing farm houses and recently subdivided property that will have new homes. At present, there are 10 houses within one- quarter mile of this property, a recently approved minor subdivision borders the east boundary and the Northmoor subdivision is located approximately 1 mile to the southeast. The proposed subdivisions are compatible with the surrounding homesites in that the proposed lots are similar to those in the immediate area, but larger than Northmoor's, and the proposed homes will be of equal or better quality than the homes which currently exist in the area. All services except natural gas currently exist in the vicinity of the site. The applicants, Ivar and Donna Larson, acquired this property in 1992 from a lender who had foreclosed on it. This was not the first foreclosure as the ground is not economical to farm. As you may or may not know, the Larsons operate several farms in Colorado and Kansas. The Larsons are well aware of the agricultural characteristics of this property and have first hand experience with how difficult these pieces are to properly farm. The Larsons have had to use intensive farming procedures such as continual spraying, installing a circle irrigation system, rebuilding water storage dams and constant "hand" labor in order to clean up and control the massive noxious weed problems and bring some productivity to the eX/t/ it 940262 Mr. Chuck Cunliffe Page 2 July 7, 1993 ground. Specific difficulties are indicated below: 1. The properties contain a rolling, south sloped 200 acre drainage way to the Little Thompson River from the surrounding area to the north, west and east. From the road you can see two small flat fields (approximately 20 acres each) but the rest is cut up into irregular patches making row crops difficult to manage and impossible to flood irrigate because of the rolling, sloping hillside. The farmers who have tried in the past have lost the property through bankruptcy. 2. The property is highly infested with noxious weeds because of the inability to farm it with normal, economically feasible procedures. The Larsons are currently using intensive, non-economical procedures in order to clean up this eyesore and establish some productivity. Once some control is accomplished, the Larsons plan to put the properties into grasses to better manage this drainage way and establish pastures for the proposed lots. The Weld County Comprehensive Plan addresses the various concerns which the Larsons have in the section entitled "Concerns of Farming as an Industry". The two tracts of land proposed for subdivision are not economically viable farms as demonstrated by the previous bankruptcies. The additional production expense the Larsons are currently incurring to manage them is not feasible long term. It should be emphasized that the proposed minor subdivision properties will be of similar size and quality to the rural properties already existing in this area and that these parcels are not economical or accessible for farming for profit. The only two farmable tracts are kept intact by the proposed lot splits and would be economically feasible for the individual owners to handle with smaller equipment, custom hire and concentrated effort. The lot sizes proposed for each subdivision will allow more concentrated care of each piece, especially noxious weed control and flood irrigation management, by each individual landowner and will enhance the overall rural atmosphere of this area The pipeline installed to service the overhead sprinkler will provide a year around, pressurized fireline for the subdivisions and the hardware can be transferred to another more productive farm. The lot splits in the two subdivisions have all been arranged by slope so that each owner will be able to flood irrigate his lot. The additional time required will be possible because of the smaller area each owner will have to manage and cover with water. The highest and best use of this sloped, drainage area would be rural homesites placed in pasture grasses to enable focused soil, water, weed control and drainage management. The area is currently served by public water, Weld County Road 46 access and is within the three mile Urban Growth area to the City of Johnstown. 940262 Mr. Chuck Cunliffe Page 3 July 7, 1993 The above facts illustrate that the development of the subject properties will be in compliance with the spirit of the Weld County Comprehensive Plan.

Morrison, Assistant County Attorney " White Tail Acres # 1 & 2 - Ivar Larson, Developer Subject' I reviewed the covenants which have been recorded with respect to the two minor subdivisions and they appear adequate from the County' s standpoint. It should be noted that Section 4 . 02 allows the Board of County Commissioners to maintain the common elements and assess the costs against the property owner and, if necessary, collect those in a manner similar to a tax lien. This provision is found in the planned unit development statute, and it does not require the Board of County Commissioners to act but allows them the opportunity to do so. The covenants appear to have adequate provisions to provide for assessments of the maintenance of the common areas , including the roads, on a private basis . I should note that the covenants were reviewed on the basis of their effect on the County and my review is not intended to provide Mr. Larson legal advice. I do observe that the covenants appear to have been well researched and drafted. There is some question on the issue of an improvements agreement with respect to the internal improvements . Mr. Larson is of the impression that one is not required, but ordinarily one would be prepared for the internal improvements, particularly the road which, although it will not be accepted for maintenance by the County, still is inspected by the County Engineering Department for compliance with the County standards .

As I mentioned, Gerrity Oil & Gas Corporation owns mineral interest and a producing gas well in the 0/2 of Section 14, T4N-R68W. Our gas well is called the Little Thompson Gas Unit well, and is located in the NE'ANE' of Section 14. We hold a 100% mineral leasehold interest in this 40 acre well tract as to all depths. We also hold a 50% mineral leasehold interest from the surface to the top of the "1" Sand formation, and a 100% interest below this depth, in the rest of the NE'/. of Section 14. Finally, we hold a 50% mineral leasehold interest as to all depths in the SE'44 of Section 14. We are concerned that the platting of a subdivision on this acreage could potentially have adverse consequences for our future enjoyment of our leasehold rights on the land. We therefore ask that the subdivision plat include four acre "no development" tracts within each quarter-quarter section, to allow for our drilling future wells. We are entitled, by Oil & Gas Conservation Commission Rules, to drill one well in each quarter-quarter. Again, we hope that the subdivision platting is done with our rights to develop our mineral leasehold interest taken into account. Please let me know if you need any additional information or feedback in this regard. Sincerely, Mark C. Zah Senior Landman MCZ/kkp 4100 East Mississippi Avenue Suite 1200 ,�/ Denver.

Ivar and Donna Larson Whitetail Acres s1 & m2 S-333 & S-334 Final Plat I have reviewed the application, met with the applicant, and have the final comments: 1. Geometric design standards. The curve radius' on Whitetail Lane--the proper radius for 30 mph speed limit should have a radius of 302' . There are four curves on this section of road that are less than 302' . 2. The applicant is showing two different radius' at the end of the cul- de-sac at Whitetail Lane. This needs to be a 50' minimum radius on both copies. 3. Weld County Road (WCR) 46 is a gravel county road with a traffic count varying from 92 to 126 vehicles per day. A development of the additional twelve (12) lots will generate 114 trips per day based on the "Institute of Traffic Engineers Trip Generation Manual" . The additional traffic will put this road at about the 200 vehicle per day volume. The distance from the subdivision to the I-25 access road is about a half mile. A high percent of the traffic volume from the subdivision will use this section of the road. The applicant should be required to enter into a road improvements agreement with the BOCC. cc: Commissioner Baxter File S-333 & S-334 oEC cqI4VE DEC 2 0 1993 Weld County Planning /7//6 // 340262 y STATE OF COLORADO COLORADO GEOLOGICAL SURVEY oe.cozo Di i‘Rxl of Minerals and Geology gi ��- r;� •\' 3;Department of Natural Resources � 'r 1 76 s 1313 Sherman Street.

We are hereby voicing our objections to these subdivisions. Our letter of March 22, 1993 objected to their original proposal and listed six ways in which this development would adversely affect us. We spent five years looking at land in Adams, Arapahoe, and Weld counties before selecting our present site. The quietness and absence of urban noise and polution was a major fac- tor in our purchasing this particular parcel of land as the surrounding land was being used for agricultural purposes. The three new houses to the east of us on Road 46 have already doubled the traffic and consequently doubled the dust problems created. 1\welve adeitional houses would increase the traffic and dust substantially. Another reason for our objection is that these houses would block our view of the mountains. This subdivision will negate all of the features that we enjoy associated with our home: the mountain view, the quiet and rural atmosphere. We will either have to live unhappily with the situation or be forced to move. As usual, the haphazard programs of developers prevail over the wise, control- led, planned growth and protection of agricultural resources, even though the media quote members of the Department of Planning Services being aware of and concerned about the problem. Thank you for your time and the consideration of our input regarding this sit- uation. Sincerely, Barbara Soleta eui/e /r aC 940262 ,i D t c.,,767E __L2 -: � __.

DEC 2 1993 • Weld Counti Planning Department of Planning Services Weld County Administrative Services 1400 North 17th Avenue Greeley, CO 80631 Re: Whitetail Acres 1 and Whitetail Acres 2 TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: My name is R. B. Eckel, D.D.S., of Berthoud, Colorado. I am the owner of the farm which is located just north on Weld County Road 46 across from the two Whitetail subdivisions proposed by Ivar and Donna Larson. I am as much concerned about this as anyone being the closest neighbor. In that respect I was surprised to receive my first information on these two subdivisions in the mail and not directly from Ivar and Donna. We have known each other for years and it is difficult for me to express my opinions here in a public forum when I have not been asked for my opinion privately. First, I disagree that this land is not fit for agricultural purposes. It was farmed successfully for many years by several different farmers. Right now there is an excellent crop of alfalfa on part of the land and they harvested a bumper wheat crop last summer right where they propose to build houses. It is my position that this land is not fit for housing. Weld County has been a leader for many years in preventing urban sprawl. Clearly these two six lot subdivisions should be evaluated under the strict Weld County Guidelines for Subdivisions. While I believe that subdivisions are appropriate and that growth is beneficial to our County I do not believe that urban sprawl is in this County's best interests. I live in Larimer County and I continually hear about the endless problems that are created by these rural subdivisions. TRANSPORTATION: Parents are required to supplement the school buses and extracurricular activities become a logistics burden for everyone. Each time a family needs food, a movie, a hardware item, etc. it is going to be a 10 or 20 mile round trip. This cannot be in the County's best interests. POLICE AND FIRE PROTECTION: The budgets and manpower of our police and fire departments are already packed to their limits without extending their duties to another sector of the County. AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTIVITY: As the Commission knows all too well agriculture is a gamble in the best of years. The measure of the productivity of a parcel of agricultural land is not necessarily a function of the financial success of the person farming it. If return on investment is to be the standard with which we measure productive farm land then I would submit that pretty much all of Weld County should be designated as available for subdivisions. Just as good fanning contemplates efficient use of our resources so too should good planning. Rural subdivisions generate inordinate expenses which everyone in the County must pay. They are as inefficient and wasteful as the farmette sized lots that they create. `3� 340262 Page - 2 Weld County Department of Planning December 20, 1993 AESTHETICS AND EFFICIENCY: The developer argues that since this land cannot be fanned as a larger parcel it can be farmed in smaller parcels through more labor intensive methods. The fallacy of this argument can be seen by even a cursory look at Larimer County's rural subdivisions. Because these acreages are too big to mow, too small to plow and too complex to irrigate they become eyesores. COVENANTS: While covenants superficially appear to be effective in controlling some of the junk, animal and occupational problems within a subdivision they are not. Neighbors are suing neighbors. Homeowners Associations are insufficiently funded and only the activists participate. URBAN SPRAWL: For many years Weld County has used good judgment to prevent urban sprawl. You are now being asked to approve two subdivisions which aren't legally subdivisions. If you approve these two non-subdivisions you will be opening the gate which will allow me and every neighbor of the Larsons to select their poorer farm land, subdivide it and expand a whole set of problems Weld county has astutely avoided. lust ask the Larimer County Planning Commission how often they see the owners of the small acreages are coming before them to further subdivide their property. After all, these small acreages can't be agriculturally productive on any scale but pasture for a horse. While I realize that water, sewer, transportation and land use issues aren't topics upon which I feel competent to comment I am concerned about them. There is no sewer system in place to take care of human waste and already the Little Thompson River near by is one of the worst polluted rivers in the area. Further, there is only a 3 inch water main which is not adequate to supply the farmers' needs and also subdivisions. What are we doing about ensuring there is sufficient fireflow pressure during the heavy use periods in the summer and when all the ponds are frozen in the winter? The road is a farm to market gravel road which is already a dusty polluter of the air. By adding 100 more vehicles trips per day it will create a real problem. The developer should be required to pave County Road 46 to meet the frontage road on the west and the county road on the east. Shouldn't the subdividers have agreements with the ditch company. Shouldn't they be required to have agreements with their neighbors regarding the ditches that deliver the water to the subdivisions? Agreements should state who is tcsponsible for maintaining these ditches and who is going to pay the costs involved. One of these ditches goes through my farm and I would like to have an answer to this problem before the subdivision receives approval. Thank you for your anticipated cooperation and consideration in this matter. Sincerely, le D. D-s R. B. Fickel, D.D.S. RBF/kc 940262 rtr.161,55_7.14 Al 1 DEC 2C 1993 Weld County Planning December 18 , 1993 To : Chuck Cunliffe RE : White Tail Estates 41 & 42 This is a letter regarding the White Tail Estates 41 & 42 from concerned Property owners surrounding the proposed subdivision . We are strongly opposed to the proposed subdivision for a number of reasons . Some of the strongest reasons are stated below: 1 . There is only a 3 " main water line on County Road 46 if the current home owners were to allow the proposed 12 houses onto the current line we would have no water pressure left , it is not equipped to handle such numbers . 2 . The proposed properties would also be given ditch/water rights on the current ditch but would not have to help maintain the entire ditch from start to finish , ( proposal only states maintaining the ditch on Larson property ) as the current property owners do . Thus leaving the bulk of the maintenance up to the current land owners . 3 . There is not enough phone lines for current residents and according to the phone company private lines are being split into 4 party lines to provide service when all party lines were supposed to be private lines by 1994 . 4 . The traffic on a dirt road would be unacceptable . The subdivision would almost double the traffic on the road . 5 . Earlier this year when we wanted to split 10 acres off of the 80 acres we have to build a farm house and machine sheds to farm the remaining 70 acres for my parents the Planning Department flat refused saying they would not allow 10 acres to be removed from production . As a result we were allowed . only after having to attend 2 hearings , the most that we could split off was 4 acres . You are proposing to remove 96 acres out of production to put in a subdivision that will disrupt the agricultural base in this area . Sincerely .

Administrative Offices 1400 N. 17th Ave. Greeley, Co. 80631 Dear Mr. Cunliffe, We are writing to voice our concerns and objections to the proposed White Tail Subdivision #1 and#2. We have been farming on road#46 for 32 years. This is prime agriculture land and we believe it should remain so. Urbanites do not realize all the problems that arise from having major agriculture producers as neighbors. Some of our concerns are: 1. Irrigation water ditch maintaince and division of water shares. We have already had problems occur, we have had waste water ditched destroyed by urban people not realizing their importance in handling discharge water and heavy rains. 2. Agriculture burning. Urban people do not understand the need for this and object to the smoke and the appearance of the ditch banks. Burning is necessary in the maintainance of irriagation water supply. 3. Agriculture crop spraying is essential to crop production and since this proposed subdivision is surrounded by agriculture, they soon would be objecting to the spraying. 4. We have about 200 head of cattle on feed north of the subdivision. Odor and dust • could be a problem. 5. Dust from the dirt road is already a problem for the people residing on road#48. Additional traffic would increase dust pollution and the need for more road maintainance. This road has heavy agriculture traffic, trucks, tractors combines etc.. 6. Domestic water pressure is an existing problem. Additional homes would certainly require a larger water line. 7. Twelve new septic tanks with waste water draining into the Little Thompson River could be a factor in water pollution. 8. Phone service is also an existing problem. Urbanites do not understand Party Lines. We have chosen agriculture as our life and have two sons that wish to stay in agriculture. We enjoy our life style, the wild life (White Tail Deer, Red Fox, Nesting Pair of Red Tail Hawks and Owls) and our open space as do our existing neighbors. We believe this subdivision would decrease the quality of our life style and that of our neighbors. Housing developments should be • adjacent to existing developments. EX///S r 940262 • Thank you for your time and we sincerely hope that you will take our thoughts into consideration when making a decision on this subdivision.

Administrative Offices 1400 N. 17th Ave . Greeley , CO 80631 Re : Case Number S-347 Case Number S-348 I urge you to review the request of Mr . Larson on the above two case numbers very carefully . Our whole area , Weld County and Larimer County , are at very important crossroads . The only very productive farmland left in Larimer County is in the southeast section, across the street from Mr . Larson ' s proposed subdivision . The area south of Highway 402 to Berthoud and east of Hwy . 287 to I-25 should be preserved as farm area at all costs . No subdivisions should be allowed in this area . I have owned livestock for 30 years and I can state the very true , hard fact--farms and livestock do not go well with subdivisions . You deprive the people who have made their homes out here , invested in their land , the life style they have chosen by allowing a subdivision. Crop dusters will not spray close to subdivisions . If the farmers can' t spray their crops , they can ' t grow them-- this greatly affects their lifestyle and livelihood . Even if water is available, you will very rarely find anyone on a small acreage who irrigates . Why? Because water comes for a 24 hour period . No shutting it off . It comes from 7 : 00 a .m. one morning until 7 : 00 a .m. the next . Also , there is a minimum number of inches you must order . On a 5 acre parcel after a house is built and one outbuilding, you would be watering a maximum of 4 acres . This would take about 6 hours . What do you think would be done with the remaining 18 hours of water? Share with the neighbor? From personal experience I can attest to the fact that getting 3 neighbors to agree on anything is remarkable . So what happens? Forget irrigating as it is too difficult . Dryland parcels of 1-5 acres are great for attracting prairie dogs . They are a nightmare for live- stock owners . In our area we have four dairies and a dairy feedlot . They have been here for a long time . They are well established . The minute a subdivision is in the complaints start rolling in about smell, noise , etc . Who loses ? 6(lf/,6' / / 35 940262 Dept . of Planning Services Page Household pets are allowed to roam ("because they are in the country") --even though there is a leash law . This is very bad during calving and lambing season . Farmers and ranchers will shoot strays out roaming around killing their young livestock . The dogs pack and will also join with the coyotes . Mr . Larson ' s land is already divided into two parcels , 10 acres and 15 acres . It should remain as such . Anyone buying to build on them would want to live in a rural , agricultural area and would welcome all that comes with it . Also the crop dusters would still be able to service surrounding farmland . Larimer County is working on a land use map to help with its growth and to stop the "urban sprawl" effect . "Leap frog" subdivisions such as this are not welcome and should not be allowed . Since Weld County and Larimer are adjacent in this area , it is very important that they work together in preserving the last remaining productive farm area . You might be surprised at the number of people who just like to drive through the "country . " To see the corn growing and being harvested . They don ' t want to live out here because it 's hard work keeping the land maintained , but they enjoy driving through it . Larimer County has lost most of its farmland to subdivisions . This is the last remaining area. I realize Weld County has more farmland ; however , this proposed subdivision is right next to Larimer County ' s only productive farm area . Please preserve it for all of us . Mr . Larson will not be losing by being denied . He will still have two very nice parcels of ground to be sold . However, we who live out here have a lot to lose if this is approved . We have invested much more than Mr . Larson . We have established homes . I urge you to please deny these two requests and any future requests in our area for anything smaller than 15 acres . Thank you . Xncere1 , W Glenda Moore 3441 S .

Prime farmland is land that has the best combination of physical and chemical characteristics for producing food, feed, forage, fiber, and oilseed crops, and is also available for these uses (the land could be cropland, pastureland, rangeland, forest land, or other land, but not urban built-up land or water) . It has the soil quality, growing season, and moisture supply needed to economically produce sustained high yields of crops when treated and managed, including water management, according to acceptable farming methods. In general, prime farmlands have an adequate and dependable water supply from precipitation or irrigation, a favorable temperature and growing season, acceptable acidity or alkalinity, acceptable salt and sodium content, and few or no rocks. They are permeable to water and air. Prime farmlands are not excessively erodible or saturated with water for a long period of time, and they either do not flood frequently or are protected from flooding. Farmlands of Statewide Importance These categories of land, in addition to Prime and Unique Farmlands of National Importance, are of statewide importance for the production of food, feed, fiber, forage, and oilseed crops. Criteria for defining this land was determined by representatives of the Colorado State Experiment Station, the Colorado State Department of Agriculture, and the Colorado State Soil Conservation Board. Three categories of these land have been proposed for consideration as being Statewide Important Farmlands. eA/H78 i / 940262 CO✓/JT y Po A1> 7" .`r 57-..:.1 y4 . 1135• �" 999 • I I , Lie ,ErimNc Q� tI I / . . -rake t. .

Clerk to the Board Reso for Continuance • 940262 BEFORE THE WELD COUNTY, COLORADO, PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION OF RECOMMENDATION TO THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS Moved by Bud Clemons that the following resolution be introduced for passage by the Weld County Planning Commission. Be it resolved by the Weld County-Planning Commission that the application for: CASE NUMBER: S-349 and S-350 NAME: Ivar and Donna Larson ADDRESS: 925 N. County Road, Route I, Berthoud, CO 80513 REQUEST: Minor Subdivision Final Plat (Whitetail #1 and Whitetail #2) . LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Part of the E2 of Section 14, T4N, R68W of the 6th P.M. , Weld County, Colorado. LOCATION: Approximately 2 1/2 miles southwest of Johnstown City limits. be recommended unfavorably to the Board of County Commissioners. 1. It is the opinion of the Department of Planning Services' staff that the applicants have not shown compliance with Section 4.5.9 of the Weld County Subdivision Ordinance as follows: The proposed Minor Subdivision Final Plat is not consistent with the Weld County Comprehensive Plan and is not compatible with the surrounding area of rural residences and agricultural uses. This property is zoned A (Agricultural) . The Agricultural zone district was established to maintain and preserve the agricultural base of the County. This proposal will take 191 acres of farm land out of production. The Comprehensive Plan attempts to minimize the incompatibilities that occur between agricultural and urban uses, and this request will not only increase incompatible uses, but it will make current farming practices in the area far more difficult. The Comprehensive Plan discourages the conversion of agricultural land to urban uses. This policy is intended to promote the use of agricultural land and to support a phased growth plan in the County. While low density single-family residential developments have been permitted in the area it is not a policy which is encouraged by the Comprehensive plan. lyi);hike 940262 RESOLUTION, S-349 Ivar and Donna Larson Page 2 The potential for increased interference with the neighboring rural uses is probable. Additionally, maximum efficiency and economy cannot be achieved because the cost of this development will be far greater for the general public than any revenues generated by this development. The Weld County Comprehensive Plan encourages minimizing the costs to taxpayers but providing additional public services in rural areas for uses that require services on an urban level. Police and fire protection as well as public road maintenance provided to non-urban areas becomes increasingly less cost effective as rural areas continue to be subdivided. There are four soil types located on this site three of which are identified as prime farmland if irrigated with adequate water. Two of these soils, Nunn Clay Loam 1-3% slope, and Weld Loam 3-5% slope are considered to have high potential for dry crop land as well. These soils have been further classified as "farmlands of statewide importance. " (U.S. Department of Agricultural Soil Conservation Service) September 7, 1993. It is not the policy of the Comprehensive Plan to convert these farmlands into urban uses. These lands are more than adequate for farm production. The current general use of the surrounding area is agricultural. The Centennial Farm is located close to this site. The scale and density of this proposal far exceeds the current nature of the area. Based on census data this site will generate 34 additional people in this area. With an increase in density, noise levels, and traffic generated, the general overall appearance of this area will change from rural to urban. The applicants are proposing to subdivide 191 acres of farmland into 12 acreages with an average lot size of 15 acres, more or less. However, in a previous application (Mountain View) the applicants stated the difficulties they were having in farming their 25 acre farm. Staff is concerned with this contradiction, if they are not able to adequately farm their small farm then how will the owner of Whitetail lots be able to farm similar size lots. This proposal does not encourage the preservation of agricultural uses in Weld County. 340262 RESOLUTION, S-349 Ivar and Donna Larson Page 2 Staff has received verbal opposition to this request and 11 letters of clarification. The surrounding property owners are concerned about preserving their rural lifestyle, the impact this development will have on their present farming practices, and the increase in density this subdivision will produce. This recommendation for denial is based, in part, upon a review of the application materials submitted by the applicant, other relevant information regarding the request, responses from referral entities, and several conversations with surrounding property owners in opposition to this request. Motion seconded by Ron Sommer. VOTE: For Passage Against Passage Bill O'Hare Shirley Camenisch Bud Clemons Ron Sommer Richard Kimmel The Chairman declared the resolution passed and ordered that a certified copy be forwarded with the file of this case to the Board of County Commissioners for further proceedings.

LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Part of the E2 of Section 14, T4N, R68W of the 6th P.M. , Weld County, Colorado. LOCATION: Approximately 1-1/2 miles southwest of the Town of Johnstown. John Donnelly, representative, gave an overview of the application that included aerial maps and overheads. There are numerous homes in the area and Ivar and Donna Larson feel this application is compatible with surrounding uses. John explained they are working with the various referral agencies for utilities and roadways to the site. Extensive discussion followed regarding soil conditions in the area and the financial burden of farming this property opposed to building homesites. The Chairman asked if there was anyone in the audience who wished to speak for or against this application. Gary Baird, surrounding property owner, said he has no problems with this type of application as long as the dust situation is controlled. Bruce Fickle, Attorney, representative for a surrounding property owner who has been farming adjacent property for years, stated they have the same concerns as the Department of Planning Services' staff. Bud Clemons moved Case Number S-349, Ivar and Donna Larson, be forwarded to the Board of County Commissioners with the Planning Commission's recommendation for denial. Ron Sommer seconded the motion.
