Let the minutes reflect that this meeting was recessed at 9: 15
a.m. Upon reconvening, Shelly Miller was Acting Clerk to the
Board, and Lee Morrison, Assistant County Attorney, was Attorney
of Record.
CONSIDER RE #1566 - TROSTEL: Lee Morrison, Assistant County
Attorney, made this a matter of record. Greg Thompson, Planning
Department representative, indicated the City of Greeley
requested a 50-foot right-of-way reservation from the centerline
of Weld County Roads 29 and 72. He explained that two legal
lots presently exist on 150 acres, with this recorded exemption
allowing a third lot. Mr. Thompson explained the access,
utilities, water, etc. , staff's reasons for recommending denial,
and answered questions from the Board. Larry Intermill,
Intermill Land Surveying, represented the applicant and stated
the five-acre parcel is hard to irrigate and machinery is
difficult to maneuver on the parcel. He submitted a letter from
the previous farmer and a diagram of the way the ditches lay.
Responding to Commissioner Kirkmeyer, Mr. Intermill said a home
would be built on Lot A, and Commissioner Harbert stated a home
could be built on Lot B. Tom Trostel, applicant, said he has
owned the property since 1988, farmed it himself until 1992, and
leased it for farming purposes last year. He said the corner is
a nuisance to irrigate and he has tried many different ways to
get the water to flow. Mr. Trostel submitted two pictures for
the record and stated the ground would only produce hay. He
further indicated the parcel would no longer be irrigated, even
if the recorded exemption were denied. In response to a
question from Commissioner Harbert, Mr. Trostel pointed out the
accesses, one to proposed Lot A and one to proposed Lot B. He
confirmed only Lot A would be sold, no home is proposed on Lot
B, and no additional accesses are required. Mr. Trostel also
stated he farms other land and agrees this is good soil;
however, it is not feasible to farm Lot A due to irrigation
problems. Commissioner Harbert stated concern because of the
numerous recorded exemptions in the area, and Mr. Trostel
indicated a surrounding property owner had just constructed a

building which took five acres of land out of farming. Mr.
Thompson clarified said building was for storage and processing
for a farmer in the area. Mike Adams, realtor, indicated the
Special Review Permit property bordering Lot B would be used for
a chicken farm and almost all of the property in the recorded
exemption would remain agricultural. Christy Jones, owner of
said Special Review Permit property, confirmed she would be
raising chickens and the property would remain agricultural;
however, she expressed concern about the "For Sale" sign on the
80-acre parcel. She said she does not have a problem with the
division; however, matters need to be clarified. In response to
Chairman Webster, she stated she has no idea whether the five-
acre parcel was farmable. Mr. Adams indicated he was the
realtor for that property; however, the 80 acres is no longer
for sale and the sign will be taken down. Mr. Morrison
confirmed with Mr. Thompson that the net result of the Special
Review Permit and the recorded exemption would be the creation
of one additional building site. Further questions from the
Board were answered, and Commissioner Harbert moved to approve
Recorded Exemption #1566, with the Conditions of Approval as
recommended by staff. She reiterated she does have
reservations, but feels the five acres are not farmable without
extra effort. Commissioner Baxter seconded the motion and
indicated approval of this request would be a viable way to
avoid a worse net result. After the applicant consented to the
Conditions of Approval, the motion carried unanimously.
RESOLUTIONS AND
ORDINANCES: The Resolutions were presented and signed as listed on the
consent agenda. There were no Ordinances.
Let the minutes reflect that the above and foregoing actions
were attested to and respectfully submitted by the Acting Clerk
to the Board.
There being no further business, this meeting was adjourned at
12: 15 P.M.
