Luke Lind, representative, explained they own 130 acres and want to split the
property. They plan to keep the integrity of the farm intact. This division is
compatible with existing landuse because a road and an existing ditch run through
the property where this division is proposed. They will not lose productive farm
land. Ed Lind plans to build a home on a portion of the vacant land at a later
date. A house and existing outbuildings exist on the adjacent property. Bud
Clemons asked where the proposed buildings would be placed on the vacant
property, he was shown on the overhead map.
The Chairperson asked if there was anyone in the audience who wished to speak for
or against this application. No one wished to speak.

Page 2
Proposed use:
This parcel of land will be used for agriculture and rural
residential purposes, just like existing uses . Existing and
proposed agricultural uses are the same which include irrigated
farming; livestock care, feeding and grazing; and a rural homestead
upon the property. Future use will also probably include the
addition of some accessory structures such as pens and barns for
utilization of livestock care, feeding and grazing. The location
of these accessory structures has not been determined. Any such
livestock use will be within bulk requirements of the Weld County
Zoning Ordinance .
Need for use:
This USR application is submitted due to the fact that the
property is to be divided along a farm road into two parcels of
land. The existing farm road is a natural dividing line between
the two parcels and has irrigation lead ditches on both sides of
said road. This parcel shall be approximately 72 acres and due to
the fact that it exceeds 35 acres in size, a Recorded Exemption
application could not be processed. This parcel will be purchased
by Luke and Becky Lind who are the son and daughter-in-law of the
current owners, Ed and Carol Lind. No change in use of any type is
contemplated except for the possible construction of accessory farm
structures .
Types of existing uses on surrounding properties:
Rural residential, recreational and agricultural .
Distance of proposed use to residential structures in each
direction:
There are several rural residences located within 1 mile in
all directions from this property.
Maximum number of users, patrons, members and buyers:
The users upon this parcel will be Luke and Becky Lind and
family. There are no other users, patrons, members or buyers .
Number of employees, number of shifts and hours of operation:
None .
930471
USR Application
February 16 , 1993
Page 3
Type of water source for proposed use:
The existing farm residence receives domestic water from North
Weld County Water District . The farm land receives irrigation
water from the Larimer and Weld Irrigation Company. The water
sources for this parcel for existing and future use will remain the
same.
Access route (s) to be utilized for proposed use:
All access is from Weld County Road 74 . This parcel has an
access onto road 74 located near the existing farm residence .
Type, size, weight and frequency of vehicular traffic associated
with proposed use:
All traffic is associated with farm usage including cars,
pickups, tractors and other normal farm equipment .
Type of sewage facilities for proposed use:
This parcel is served with a septic tank, leach field and
leach line .
Proposed fire protection measures associated with proposed use:
The existing parcel is serviced by the Eaton-Galeton Fire
Protection District .
Types and maximum number of animals to be concentrated on USR area
at one time:
All livestock will be within the numbers permitted by the Weld
County Zoning Ordinance . This parcel will not have a livestock
confinement operation, however, this parcel , in addition to
irrigated row crop agriculture will also be used for livestock
operations related to cow-calf and grazing, all within the bulk
requirements as established by the Weld County Zoning Ordinance .
Type and size of waste, stockpile or storage areas associated with
proposed use:
The only waste is normal farm waste including some manure
which will be spread and utilized as fertilizer upon this parcel .
930471

Type of storm water retention facilities associated with proposed
use:

and other waste associated with Proposed use:
None .

with proposed use:
None, except that the existing rural homestead is landscaped.

None .
Time table showing time required for construction and start-up of
proposed use:
There is no time-table for construction of any additional
accessory farm structures . There is also no time-table for start-
up of the proposed use as the proposed use and existing use is
ongoing.
Statement demonstrating that there is a need for the facility
within the proposed area of service:
Due to the acreage limitation of the Recorded Exemption
procedure, this is the only procedure that will allow the
applicants and their son to have a parcel of land separated from
the family farm in excess of 35 acres . The existing road and
irrigation ditches naturally divide the existing family farm into
this parcel and another proposed parcel of 59 acres .
Statement explaining how proposed use is consistent with Weld
County Comprehensive Plan:
The Weld County Comprehensive Plan does allow for rural
residences especially those associated with on-farm and family
uses .
