SECTION 1.0: WELD COUNTY SNOW POLICY
1.1 INTRODUCTION
The principle objective of the Weld County Snow and Ice Control Program is to provide for
the safe and efficient flow of traffic within the County during periods of inclement winter
weather. Routes have been established and priorities assigned which will ensure that the
minimum road network required for operation of emergency vehicles will be maintained at
all times. Under certain emergencies, the Weld County Sheriffs Department will be notified.
Flexibility remains the comerstone of the plan. To be effective, priorities must be reassessed
periodically and routes altered to keep pace with changing population centers and traffic
volumes. Consequently, the routes, staffing, and priorities found in the plan in Appendix "A"
should be considered only as initial considerations subject to change at the discretion of the
Public Works Department.
Established within the context of this Snow and Ice Policy are sections which pertain to a
"Snow Emergency". These sections will supersede any other conflicting sections.
1.2 SNOW WATCH ORIGINATION PLAN
During normal working hours, sanding and/or plowing operations may be initiated by the
Public Works Director, Project Coordinator for Public Works, or the road maintenance
supervisors. Snow plowing will generally begin in non-urban areas or on roadways having
shoulder and ditch sections when snow depth has reached between three and four inches.
At times other than normal working hours, the assistance and cooperation of the Weld
County Sheriffs Department and Colorado State Patrol will be necessary to ensure that
sanding/plowing operations are initiated in a timely manner. When snow begins to fall, the
County Sheriffs Department or Colorado State Patrol will notify the Weld County
Communications Center which will then notify the Public Works Director, Project Coordinator
for Public Works, or the road maintenance supervisors. The Director will then notify the
Project Coordinator and the road maintenance supervisors and a strategy will be formulated
to begin sanding and plowing operations on the primary routes first, followed by secondary
routes and then residential side roads.
1.3 SNOW REMOVAL PLAN A
1.3.1 ASSUMPTION: Accumulation of snow can be cleared in a timely manner with
available equipment and personnel.
1.3.2 OBJECTIVES: To clear snow and maintain, clear and safe for the traveling public,
all Weld County roads as a result of snow storms.

2419818 B-1472 P-559 12/21/94 02:34P PG 5 OF 46
ORDINANCE NO. 180
PAGE 6
1.3.3 PRIORITIES: Roads will be cleared in the following order of priority:
1.3.3.1 Emergencies involving human life and safety
1.3.3.2 National Defense (Air Force Missile Site access roads)
1.3.3.3 Essential dairy-livestock access roads
1.3.3.4 Main arterial roads
1.3.3.5 School bus routes
1.3.3.6 Mail delivery routes
1.3.3.7 Remaining collector roads (including subdivisions and unincorporated
towns)
1.3.4 PERSONNEL- EQUIPMENT: The following personnel and equipment resources are
available to be employed in Weld County Snow Removal Operations: (SEE
APPENDIX "A".)
1.3.5 COMMAND AND CONTROL
1.3.5.1 Will be exercised through the following chain of authority:
(1) Board of Weld County Commissioners
(2) Public Works Director
(3) Project Coordinator for Public Works
(4) Motor Grader Supervisors
1.3.5.2 Control of operations will be exercised at the operations office and radio
room (snow desk) at the Weld County Public Works Office, 933 N. 11th
Avenue, Greeley, Colorado. Communications with regional supervisors
and operators will be primarily by high band radio. The Director of Public
Works will be in charge of all snow removal operations and will staff the
operations office as necessary to carry out operations efficiently.
1.3.5.3 Any emergency calls for the sheriff's office, ambulance, or helicopter
services that are taken at the snow desk will be forwarded to the
appropriate department.
1.3.5.4 All incoming calls regarding snow removal or emergencies will be routed
to the snow desk, 356-4000, Ext. 3750, from the communications
switchboard, unless a specific person is requested.
1.3.6 OPERATIONS
1.3.6.1 Individual grader operators in zones 2 through 31 are responsible for
knowing the priority of clearing the roads within their zones, as assigned
by their supervisors. When snow accumulations warrant, according to
941002
2419818 B-1472 P-559 12/21/94 02:34P PG 6 OF 46
ORDINANCE NO. 180
PAGE 7
priority, individual operators will take independent action to start clearing
within their zones as early as practicable.
1.3.6.2 The snow desk will be manned as soon as determined necessary by the
Director of Public Works or higher authority. The first supervisor to reach
the snow desk will assume charge immediately by making radio contact
with all possible units in the field and determining their status, and will
direct operations in accordance with the priorities established herein. As
additional equipment and personnel are needed, they will be called into
service at the discretion of the Director of Public Works or higher authority.
1.3.6.3 If weather information is available or operations are otherwise anticipated
the day before, the Director of Public Works will direct specific operators
to be at work and ready to commence plowing as soon as practicable on
the following day. If more than two (2) days of continuous operations are
anticipated, no operator will work more than twelve (12) hours in a day
without approval of the Director of Public Works.
1.3.6.4 Status of all snow removal operations will be maintained at the snow desk.
Reports to higher authority will be made as directed by the Director of
Public Works. Motorgrader supervisors will deploy to the field as directed
and remain in the area of their units, unless otherwise directed.
1.3.6.5 Plow operators are directed that the first priority is to get the roads cleared
as fast as possible, emergencies excepted. Operators are authorized to
stop and assist disabled or stuck vehicles only if it is necessary to clear
the road or if life or health is in danger. Requests for assistance from
stranded vehicles not involving an emergency will be radioed into the snow
desk dispatcher who will attempt to obtain assistance for the stranded
party.
1.3.6.6 If an abandoned vehicle blocking the roadway is encountered, the operator
coming upon it will radio in the location, license plate number, and
description of the vehicle to office personnel. The office personnel, in turn,
will attempt to establish the owner of the vehicle through the Clerk and
Recorder's Office, and will attempt to contact the owner to advise him or
her that the vehicle is a hazard and will be moved off the County
right-of-way. If the owner cannot be contacted, the operator will attempt
to move the vehicle as carefully as possible. If the vehicle cannot be
moved without damaging it, the operator will request instructions from his
supervisor.
1.3.6.7 No school routes, private roads or driveways off the County rights-of-way
will be cleared by County equipment.

(1) EXCEPTION: If requested in writing in advance by a school district,
the County will clear the driveway.
(2) EXCEPTION: If a citizen needs a private road or driveway opened
for a medical or other emergency, the citizen should call the Public
Works office. The office personnel will fill out an emergency card
and contact the appropriate emergency service. Office personnel
will then contact the grader operator in the area and the grader
operator will meet the emergency vehicle at the site and open the
road or driveway for the emergency vehicle.
1.3.6.8 Plow trucks will be used only on paved roads and will be assigned routes
or zones as dictated by the distribution of snow in the County.
1.3.6.9 Cinder trucks will be dispatched as necessary by the motor grader
supervisors or the maintenance support supervisors to predetermined
locations.
1.3.6.10 Backup support will be furnished as necessary by the Weld County Motor
Pool and all Public Works divisions to maintain and repair snow removal
equipment. Personnel from these divisions will be on standby or on duty,
as directed by the Director of Public Works and the Weld County Motor
Pool. First priority will be the maintenance and repair of snow removal
equipment.
1.3.6.11 Nothing in this plan is intended to preclude an employee from acting and
using his best judgement in the absence of directions from higher
authority.
1.3.7 PLANNING AND PREPARATION
1.3.7.1 All supervisors of units providing snow removal are responsible for
ensuring that equipment is ready and personnel are briefed on their duties.
Prior to the first snow, each piece of equipment will be checked out, with
its plow, to ensure readiness. All other equipment, such as tire and tow
chains, flares, priority route maps, vehicle lights, flashlights, etc., will also
be checked out at this time.
1.3.7.2 Fuel stocks at grader sheds will be monitored by the individual zone
operators and status reported as directed to the motorgrader supervisors.
If a fuel delivery from a supplier is necessary, the maintenance supervisors
may direct the delivery route to be cleared on a priority basis.

1.4 SNOW REMOVAL PLAN B
1.4.1 ASSUMPTION: Accumulation of snow is too heavy to clear in a timely manner with
available County equipment and personnel.
1.4.2 OBJECTIVES: To clear snow and maintain, clear and safe for the traveling public,
all Weld County roads as a result of snowstorms.
1.4.3 PRIORITIES: See PLAN A, Section 1.3.3
1.4.4 PERSONNEL-EQUIPMENT
1.4.4.1 In addition to County resources referred to in Plan A, Section 1.3.4, the
County will utilize, as funds are available, the resources of local
contractors.
1.4.4.2 These and any other contractors will work wherever assigned, but will be
primarily on high-priority roads. Equipment supplied by a contractor will be
with an operator and its own fuel support, if available. The type of
equipment will be specified by the Director of Public Works, but will
normally be motorgraders or front-end loaders.
1.4.5 AUTHORIZATION FOR CONTRACT
1.4.5.1 Upon recommendation of the Director of Public Works and approval by the
Board of County Commissioners, the Director of Public Works will contact
available contractors in the area of need and obtain the necessary
contractor equipment and personnel to augment the County workforce.
When the Board of County Commissioners cannot be reached for a
decision, the Director of Public Works will obtain whatever contract
support he deems necessary and will notify the Chairman of the Board and
other Commissioners as soon as possible of the action he has taken.
1.4.5.2 The Director of Public Works will negotiate a fair and equitable equipment
rate with the contractors, but in no case will it exceed the maximum rates
set by the most recent edition of the Colorado Department of Highways,
Equipment Rental Rate Schedule. At the time a contractor is hired, the
Weld County Public Works Department will furnish the contractor with a
copy of the Weld County snow policy.

and control the efforts of all contractor equipment.
1.4.7 OPERATIONS
1.4.7.1 County and contracted workforces will be employed so as to maximize the
efficiency of the snow removal operation. Contracted equipment will be
paired off wherever possible to compliment County equipment and to take
advantage of County radio control.
1.4.7.2 As soon as it is apparent that County forces can handle the remaining
snow removal on a timely basis, the Director of Public Works will terminate
the contractor operations.
1.4.7.3 The Director of Public Works will ensure that careful records are kept on
all contractor time and equipment on the job in order to validate later
invoices submitted for payment. If a contractor requires fuel from County
supplies, the Director of Public Works will ensure that the issue ticket is
signed by the contractor's operator.
1.4.7.4 Contractors will submit invoices to the Department of Public Works for
validation of time and charges.
1.4.8 SUBDIVISIONS
1.4.8.1 If funds are available, the Board of Weld County Commissioners may
contract out snow removal in certain subdivisions in the County. If this is
done, all personnel concerned will be notified as to which subdivisions to
clear, and which will be done by contract.

1.5.1 Emergencies involving human life and safety
1.5.2 National Defense (Air Force Missile Site access roads)
1.5.3 Essential dairy-livestock access roads
1.5.4 Main arterial roads
1.5.5 School bus routes
1.5.6 Mail delivery routes
1.5.7 Remaining collector roads (including subdivisions and unincorporated towns)
1.6 EMERGENCY PRIORITY
1.6.1 Emergency and priority#1 -Air Force Roads

1.6.4 Priority#3 - School Bus Routes
SECTION 2.0: GRAVEL PITS
Gravel obtained from County gravel easements and sites shall not be sold or used for other than
governmental purposes, except by specific authorization of the Board of County Commissioners.
SECTION 3.0: ROAD ACCESS POLICY
3.1 POLICY
Direct access from a public road will be limited to one per legal parcel, except as further
limited or restricted by zoning or subdivision regulations. Additional accesses may be
approved by the Weld County Public Works Department or the Board of County
941002
2419818 B-1472 P-559 12/21/94 02:34P PG 11 OF 46
ORDINANCE NO. 180
PAGE 12
Commissioners. This policy shall apply to all new and existing accesses within the
unincorporated areas of Weld County. Properties within municipalities or other counties
which access Weld County roads are subject to this policy.
3.2 PURPOSE
Land use and development in recent years have impacted County roads. This policy
recognizes that the efficiency and safety of County roads depends, to a large extent, upon
minimizing roadside interference and its detrimental effect upon the movement of traffic.
This policy provides minimum requirements for the design, construction, and maintenance
of accesses.
This policy is established for the safe and efficient movement of traffic while allowing
reasonable access to properties.
If a new access is requested to a legal parcel where an existing access already exists, it
should be interpreted that the second access would not be provided unless the denial of the
access creates some undue hardship on the property owner. Whenever multiple accesses
to a single legal parcel exist prior to the date of adoption of this policy and additional
accesses are requested, one or more existing access should be removed, minimizing new
accesses and utilizing existing accesses.
A Weld County Road Access Information Sheet in substantially the form shown in Appendix
"B", will be required for all new roads, driveways or other means of providing ingress or
egress to lands adjoining County rights-of-way. The information sheet shall be completed
by the owner of the property to be accessed from a County road or his duly authorized agent
as evidenced by written documentation.
3.3 MATERIALS AND METHODS
Construction practices and placement of materials on County road rights-of-way shall
conform to the Colorado Department of Transportation Standard Specifications for Road and
Bridge Construction, Current Edition, a copy of which is available for public review at the
Weld County Department of Public Works.
3.4 ROAD ACCESS DESIGN STANDARDS
All road accesses shall be constructed in accordance with the detail drawings included
herein as part of Appendix"B" and incorporated by this reference.
941002
2419818 B-1472 P-559 12/21/94 02:34P PG 12 OF 46
ORDINANCE NO. 180
PAGE 13
No access approach shall have an effective turning radius of less than 20 feet. A minimum
effective tuming radius of 40 feet shall be used for accesses intended to accommodate truck
traffic.
3.5 TEMPORARY ROAD ACCESSES
Any road access which is not for use by the general public and which will be closed after
being used for only a limited time may be considered a temporary road access. The time
shall not exceed 60 days. The technical requirements for temporary road accesses will be
the same as for permanent road accesses. Temporary road accesses shall not block
existing drainage features. When the temporary road access is closed, all materials shall
be removed and the site restored to its original condition by the permittee.
3.6 RETROFITTING A ROAD ACCESS
The owner(s), at their expense, may be required to modify road accesses when the
Department of Public Works has determined that it is necessary in order to protect the safety
of the traveling public, improve drainage conditions or provide for public roadway
improvements.
SECTION 4.0: ROAD ACCESS CULVERTS
4.1 The owner of the property shall pay for materials and the cost of installation for new road
access culverts whenever the installation of a culvert is made necessary by the creation of
a new access from private property to a county road, by any alteration of the natural flow of
water across private property by the owner, or for any other reason created by any owner of
private property. The culvert shall be installed according to the specifications of the
Department of Public Works as to size and location in the County rights-of-way or other
County property in which such culverts may be installed. The culvert size will be determined
in accordance with standard engineering practices. The property owner shall be responsible
for cleaning the borrow ditch to the extent required to accommodate the road access culvert
and insuring proper drainage.
4.2 ROAD ACCESS AND/OR CULVERT MAINTENANCE
After installation, such owner or occupier shall be responsible for the maintenance and repair
of the road access and/or any related culvert. If, after installation, such owner or occupier
is notified of the need for maintenance or repair of the culvert, the owner or occupier shall
have 15 days to make such repair or perform the needed maintenance. In the event of the
property owner's failure to perform such maintenance, Weld County shall perform such
repair and/or maintenance as may be required for the protection of the County roads and
941002

PAGE 14
related appurtenances within the right-of-way. The responsible property owner will be billed
if the property owner fails to perform the required maintenance or repair on the road access
or culvert within the timeframe specified above. In the event of an emergency or a
hazardous situation is observed or detected, the property owner shall be notified and
requested to provide an immediate remedy to the situation. If the property owner fails to
react, Weld County shall correct the hazardous situation and bill the property owner for all
incurred expenses.
4.3 GENERAL CONDITIONS
4.3.1. ENFORCEMENT: Without limiiting the availability of any other remedies,the
provisions of this section may be enforced by means of an action brought at the
direction of the Board of County Commisioners for damages,injunctive relief or in
nuisance.
4.3.2. STATE LAWS: No portion of this policy is intended to authorize any person to alter
the flow of water in a manner contrary to the laws of the State of Colorado regarding
water rights or drainage.
SECTION 5.0: MAINTENANCE OF CULVERTS, BRIDGES,
OR SIMILAR STRUCTURES USED
FOR IRRIGATION PURPOSE
The County's duty to maintain culverts, bridges, or similar structures used for irrigation purposes
shall be in accordance with the following statutory requirements.
5.1 Section 43-5-305(1), C.R.S.
"Any person or corporation owning or constructing any ditch, race, drain, or flume in,
upon, or across any highway shall keep the highway open for safe and convenient

drain, or flume. When any ditch is constructed across, in, or upon any highway, the
person owning or constructing such ditch shall construct a culvert, bridge, or similar
structure long enough to conduct the water from shoulder to shoulder from such road
or highway or of such greater length as the Board of County Commissioners having
jurisdiction thereover may require, plans for the culvert, bridge, or similar structure
having been approved in advance by the Board of County Commissioners. The
Board of County Commissioners shall maintain the culvert, bridge, or similar structure
after construction, in accordance with the provisions of Section 37-84-106, C.R.S."

7.3.2 Cleaning of the cattle guard must be completed within one (1) working day. The
person shall notify the Weld County Department of Public Works of his/her intention
to perform the cleaning prior to commencing the work. If the person believes that
such cleaning is likely to extend into the next working day, the person shall replace
the grate of the cattle guard prior to one-half hour before sunset.
7.3.3 The road on which the grate is located shall be closed during the cleaning. The
person has the duty to place all signs necessary to order to warn oncoming motorists
of the road closure, using signs in accordance with the "Manual on Uniform Traffic
Devices". The person may use signs provided by Weld County for such purposes.
7.3.4 The repair of any cattle guard on any Weld County road shall be the joint
responsibility of Weld County and the person who benefits from the cattle guard.
Weld County will provide the labor for the repair and pay for materials to repair the
metal grate provided the person benefiting from the cattle guard pays for all other
materials used in the repair.
7.4 REPLACEMENT
7.4.1 In the event any cattle guard located upon any Weld County road is deemed by Weld
County to be beyond repair, the cattle guard shall be replaced. Weld County will
provide the labor for the replacement and pay for the new metal grate provided the
person benefitting from the cattle guard pays for all other materials used in the
replacement.
7.4.2 Any person requesting the replacement of a cattle guard will provide written
acknowledgement that they will conform to the provisions of the Weld County policy
for cattle guards on Weld County roads. Installation shall be done in accordance with
Weld County's specifications for cattle guard installations.
7.5 NOTIFICATION OF THE NEED FOR REPAIR
It is the responsibility of any person who benefits from any cattle guard located upon a Weld
County road to notify the County of the need for repair to the cattle guard. The person must
notify the County within the same five working days in which the person obtains the
knowledge of the need for repair.

7.6 AGREEMENT WITH WELD COUNTY
Any person who performs work on a cattle guard in the County right-of-way without an
agreement with the County, or fails to provide notification for need for repair, or fails to
provide for periodic cleaning or assist in the repair and replacement of the cattle guard may
be subject to the cattle guard being removed by Weld County following ten day's notification
and the opportunity to apply to the Board of County Commissioners within that ten day period
for a hearing pursuant to Weld County policies for adjudicatory hearings. Notice shall be by
registered mail, return receipt requested, or by personal service in accordance with the
Colorado Rules of Civil Procedure.
7.7 VESTED
No portion of these policies shall be considered to have vested any person with the right to
a particular size of cattle guard. Weld County, upon a determination that road improvement
or widening is necessary, may require replacement of existing cattle guards. The cost will
be shared in accordance with Section 7.4 of this policy.
SECTION 8.0: ACQUISITION OF REQUIRED PERMITS FOR ROAD AND BRIDGE
OPERATIONS
Weld County shall obtain all required State and Federal permits for Public Works operations. Weld
County will acquire, in its name, all gravel mining permits for gravel mining on County-owned
property. When the property is not owned by the County, the issue of the obligation to obtain,
maintain and pay the costs of permits shall be addressed contractually.
SECTION 9.0: ROAD MAINTENANCE POLICY
(SUBDIVISIONS)
Weld County may accept roads within the boundaries of a subdivision for maintenance under the
following conditions:
9.1 All roads within subdivisions shall comply with the construction standards established within
the subdivision regulations in effect upon the date of consideration for acceptance.
9.2 Property owners may utilize any legal means of funding the necessary improvements.
9.3 Acceptance of roads for maintenance by Weld County requires approval, by Resolution of
the Board of County Commissioners, before acceptance is effective.

ORDINANCE NO. 180

SECTION 10.0: USE OF ROAD RIGHTS-OF-WAY BY PIPELINE COMPANIES
The use of road rights-of-way by pipeline companies is governed by Ordinance No. 143 and by
Section 38-5-101, C.R.S., which states:
"Any domestic or foreign telegraph, telephone, electric light power, gas, or pipeline
company authorized to do business under the laws of this state or any city or town
owning electric power producing or distribution facilities shall have the right to
construct, maintain, and operate lines of telegraph, telephone, electric light, wire or
power or pipeline along, across, upon, and under any public highway in this state,
subject to the provisions of this article. Such lines of telegraph, telephone electric
light, wire or power or pipeline shall be so constructed and maintained as not to
obstruct or hinder the usual travel on such highway."
The statute requires that Weld County must allow a pipeline company, private or public, to use
County Road rights-of-way for installing pipeline, so long as their use does not interfere with the
normal use of the roadway.
There may be some variance to this general principle depending upon whether or not the County has
a right-of-way or a fee interest in the road. A fee interest may require the company to obtain an
easement; a right-of way may not. If the company is engaged in interstate commerce, it would also
be regulated by the federal government. If it is engaged in intrastate commerce, it may be regulated
by state government through the P.U.C.
SECTION 11.0: SIGN POLICY
The County sign shop shall produce signs only for roads maintained by Weld County, including
County maintained-roads in subdivisions, unincorporated areas and unincorporated towns, or where
the signs are produced pursuant to a separate Intergovernmental Agreement with a governmental
agency.
All signs placed in the County rights-of-way must conform to the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control
Devices. No signs, except those installed by the County, shall be located within County rights-of-way
and all signs adjacent to rights-of-way must meet applicable building and zoning codes.

SECTION 12.0: PERSONAL USE OF GRADER SHEDS
Grader operators living adjacent to County grader sheds may use grader sheds in accordance with
the agreement entered into by the County and operator. Grader operators may park personal
vehicles in grader sheds while performing road maintenance work for the County, if the personal
vehicle is not parked in the grader shed in lieu of a County-owned grader. Any personal use of
grader sheds by County employees or any other individual except as specified above, is prohibited
by the Board of County Commissioners.
SECTION 13.0: UTILITIES AND RENTS FOR GRADER SHEDS
Effective January 1, 1983, the Board of County Commissioners adopted the policy whereby when
the County owns the grader shed and a trailer pad, that item associated with the grader shed will be
provided at no cost. Electricity will be provided for the dwelling located at the Kiowa grader shed
while the current employee utilizes and operates out of the grader shed. Effective with this policy,
utilities of gas and electricity are no longer to be provided to any grader operator in Weld County.
Each operator will be responsible for his or her own gas and electricity.
SECTION 14.0: EXPENDITURE OF COUNTY FUNDS FOR THE CONSTRUCTION,
UPGRADE, PAVING, AND/OR MAINTENANCE
OF STREETS, ROADWAYS, AND/OR HIGHWAYS
LOCATED WITHIN INCORPORATED MUNICIPAL BOUNDARIES
No Weld County funds shall be spent on the construction, upgrade, paving, and/or maintenance of
streets, roadways, and/or highways located within incorporated municipal boundaries, with the
exception of funds which are reimbursed to Weld County, Colorado, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, and
with the exception of funds provided (or services in lieu thereof) to municipalities by Weld County
pursuant to Section 43-2-202, C.R.S. This policy shall not preclude the County from performing work
within a municipality pursuant to an Intergovernmental Agreement providing for reimbursement for
the County's costs.
SECTION 15.0: FUGITIVE DUST CONTROL POLICY
It shall be the policy of the Board of Weld County Commissioners to address fugitive dust on Weld
County roads as follows:
15.1 PRIVATE APPLICATION
Weld County has no objection to individuals applying dust control chemicals to County roads
at their own expense providing they agree to the following conditions:
941002
2419818 B-1472 P-559 12/21/94 02:34P PG 20 OF 46
ORDINANCE NO. 180
PAGE 21
15.1.1 Chemicals used for dust control may not contain any hazardous substances as
defined in Colorado Revised Statutes, Section 29-22-101. Individuals are advised
that petroleum products, whether commercially processed or not, may contain
hazardous substances.
15.1.2 Petroleum products that contain naphtha or other combustible material may not be
used.
15.1.3 Dust control chemicals must be applied in such a manner that will not contaminate
any waters of the State. Therefore, any materials which may wash from the roadbed
will not be suitable.
15.1.4 Weld County will make every effort not to disturb the section of road which has been
treated with dust control chemicals.
IT WILL BE THE COUNTY'S DECISION AT
WHAT POINT THE ROADWAY MUST BE
GRADED TO RESTORE A REASONABLE
TRAVEL SURFACE. WELD COUNTY WILL
NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR REAPPLYING
DUST CONTROL CHEMICALS.
15.1.5 All dust control agents used on county roads shall be approved for use by the Weld
County Health Department and the Department of Public Works. Currently, the
materials listed in Appendix"D" are approved for use.
The County reserves the right to add or delete materials from the approved list at any
time without prior notice. The application of any substance to a County road for
purposes of dust control, not specifically identified in the approved list of materials,
shall be approved for use in writing from the Weld County Health Department and
Public Works Department prior to its application.
15.2 GRADING
Weld County will grade the roadbed prior to the application of dust control chemicals at no
cost to the individual.

SECTION 16.0: PROCEDURES REGARDING SURVEY MONUMENTS
The destruction of monuments can be a criminal offense and can lead to substantial costs for the
County or adjacent landowners when the need arises to replace those monuments. The following
procedure is to ensure that the monuments can be documented and replaced or relocated as road
work is performed.
In order to avoid having surveyors dig holes in the road intersections to locate the monuments, the
monument should be enclosed in a box which is kept flush with the roadway surface.
16.1 The County will supply the monument boxes to the survey companies, and the companies
will continue to handle the physical labor of installation.
16.2 The boxes will be issued through the Public Works Department. Prior arrangements should
be made to pick the boxes up, as the Public Works Department will not supply the labor or
equipment.
16.3 Efforts will be made by Public Works employees to protect existing markers during paving,
overlay, and patching projects with spacers.
16.4 Sites of new construction projects will be checked and marked by the Public Works
Department before work begins. The County Surveyor will be consulted and will inspect the
area when the work is complete.
16.5 Spacers will be put in to elevate the existing box on overlay projects. If a marker is
damaged, the County Surveyor will be notified. The Public Works Department will place a
new box over existing pins before construction begins.
SECTION 17.0: WEEDS ALONG COUNTY ROADS,
COUNTY RIGHTS-OF-WAY AND
OTHER COUNTY PROPERTY
The County has an obligation to control noxious weeds on County property as established by the
Pest Control Districts Act (C.R.S. 35-5-101, et. seq.) and the Colorado Weed Management Act
(C.R.S. 35-5.5-101, et. seq.). The Weld County Undesirable Plant Management Plan, adopted as
Ordinance No. 169, will be followed in controlling noxious weeds on County property.
The County also has an obligation to control weeds bordering County roads and at intersections and
traffic control signs in order to ensure safe traffic flow and motorist visibility. In addition, general
vegetation control along designated County roads is necessary to reduce snow drifting onto the
roads.

2419818 B-1472 P-559 12/21/94 02:34P PG 22 OF 46
ORDINANCE NO. 180
PAGE 23
The Board of County Commissioners of Weld County resolve that general weed control will be
carried out only along designated roadsides to increase motorist visibility at intersections and traffic
control signs, and prevent snow drifts along County roads.
The methods of weed control used by Weld County shall be by mowing or spraying herbicides.
Equipment in the Pest and Weed Division of the Public Works Department will be used.
SECTION 18.0: TREES IN COUNTY RIGHTS-OF-WAY
Weld County has a duty to protect motorists by ensuring that tree overgrowth from overhanging
branches and dead trees does not create road hazards by obstructing visibility.
It shall be the policy of Weld County that when trees on private property begin to obstruct visibility
on County roads, the property owner shall be given notice to trim the trees within a reasonable time
or the County will do so and bill the property owner.
If a tree or branches from a tree on private property fall onto the County rights-of-way, the tree or tree
branches will be pushed back onto the private property by the County work force.
The County shall trim or remove all trees growing in County rights-of-way that obstruct visibility for
the safety of motorists at the County's expense.
SECTION 19.0: STRIPING OF COUNTY ROADS
Weld County's roads require certain striping, per the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices.
Weld County has limited resources for Public Works operations and can only provide minimum
services.
Weld County may provide center or edge striping on arterial or collector roads when required to
enhance safety.
SECTION 20.0: ROAD ACCEPTANCE POLICY
Weld County does not maintain private roads, lanes or driveways. Before a public road can be
accepted by the Board of Weld County Commissioners for maintenance, the road must meet the
following minimum conditions:

2419818 B-1472 P-559 12/21/94 02:34P PG 23 OF 46
ORDINANCE NO. 180
PAGE 24
20.1 The road shall be surveyed to determine right-of-way lines.
20.2 The width of the right-of-way cannot be less than thirty (30) feet wide. The road shall serve
a minimum of three legal lots, two of which must have taxable improvements. Properties
abutting the intersection of the road under consideration for acceptance and an existing
publicly-maintained road do not count toward the required three lots.
20.3 The minimum road width shall be 18 feet or meet the minimum design guidelines for the
anticipated traffic. (See Appendix"E")
20.4 The road must be adequately graded and drained.
20.5 A minimum of two inches of crushed rock must be provided on the traveled surface, or if
necessary, additional material may be required to support anticipated traffic loads.
20.6 The road cannot be fenced or gated, but if there are cattle in the area, a cattle guard can be
installed in accordance with the County cattle guard policy.
20.7 The benefitting parties will be responsible for the cost of all aspects of the project.
SECTION 21.0: VACATION OF COUNTY ROAD RIGHTS-OF-WAY
21.1 Owners of land adjacent to County road, street, or alley rights-of-way which are shown as
part of an approved or recorded subdivision plat, map, or unincorporated community legally
filed prior to any regulations controlling subdivisions, may seek vacation only by means of an
application to re-subdivide pursuant to the Weld County Subdivision Ordinance which is
administered by the Department of Planning Services.
21.2 Owners of land adjacent to County road rights-of-way, other than those described in section
20.1, may seek vacation by petition to the Board of County Commissioners through the Clerk
to the Board, pursuant to C.R.S. 43-2-303.
SECTION: 22.0 APPENDICES
Attached hereto and incorporated by this reference, in substantially the form attached to this
Ordinance, are appendices "A-E" consisting of plans, forms, and diagrams.

BE IT FURTHER ORDAINED by the Board that no portion of this Ordinance shall be deemed
to have given rise to a duty of care on the part of Weld County or its public employees, as defined
at C.R.S. § 24-10-103(4) where none otherwise existed; nor shall any portion of this Ordinance be
deemed to constitute a waiver of sovereign immunity by Weld County or its public employees.
BE IT FURTHER ORDAINED by the Board that, if any section, subsection, paragraph,
sentence, clause, or phrase of this Ordinance is for any reason held or decided to be
unconstitutional, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions hereof. The
Board of County Commissioners hereby declares that it would have enacted this Ordinance in each
and every section, subsection, paragraph, sentence, clause, and phrase thereof irrespective of the
fact that any one or more sections, subsections, paragraphs, sentences, clauses, or phrases might
be declared to be unconstitutional or invalid.

Public Works Policies
Subject:
With regard to the Ordinance establishing policies for the Department of Public Works,we offer the
following comments regarding the revisions and additions. Where possible, supporting information
was included as Appendicies to permit modification without requiring an amendment of the
Ordinance.
Paragraph 1.3.6.8 of the present policy made reference to plow truck and cinder truck operations.
This paragraph was divided into two sections addressing each operation separately. While the plow
trucks and cinder trucks do coordinate their activity, situations regarding icy conditions may arise
where different priorities will have to be assigned to each operation. Updated information regarding
operating personnel and location was removed to the Appendix.
The provisions of the section on Road Access Policy represents the most significant change.
Coordination between the Planning Department and the Public Works Department will be needed
to insure that the appropriate permits are secured. Provisions to permit temporary road access will
apply to oil/gas well construction activity.
Although there is no change in the policy regarding access road culverts, readoption of the policy
will reinforce the Department's discontinuance of the "practice" of providing free labor and
equipment for the installations of culverts. If a property owner fails to properly maintain the culvert,
provisions are included to permit the Department to correct any situation which is necessary for the
protection of the County roads. The cost of any corrective action will be billed to the property
owner.
The road maintenance policy pertaining to subdivisions has been amended to allow property owners
to utilize any legal means of funding road improvements.
The Fugitive Dust Control Policy was amended to identify the specific products that are acceptable
for use. The specific list is included in the Appendicies.
The provisions addressing noxious weeds was amended to reflect the inclusion of the Pest and Weed
Division into the Public Works Department. The policy also makes reference to the Department's
ability to mow road sides for weed and snow control purposes.
