Dear : Mr. Reid and Mr. Schell
As of February 28, 1995, the above property remains in violation of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance.
I have scheduled a hearing with the Board of County Commissioners on Tuesday, March 14, 1995, at
10:00 a.m. to consider this Zoning Violation. The property will be reinspected on March 13, 1995, to
determine compliance and if the uses on the property are not in compliance at the time of the inspection,
then the Zoning Violation will be considered by the Board of County Commissioners at the hearing. If
the property is in compliance then it will not be necessary for you to attend the hearing. This hearing will
take place in the County Commissioners' Hearing Room, first floor, Weld County Centennial Center, 915
Tenth Street, Greeley, Colorado. It is recommended that you or a representative be in attendance to
answer any questions the Board of County Commissioners might have about the violation and uses on
the property.
The Department of Planning Services' staff will be recommending that the Board of County
Commissioners authorize the County Attorney to proceed with legal action to remedy the violation. Our
records indicate that you were made aware of the nature of the violation, the action necessary to correct
the violation, and that you were given sufficient time to remedy the violation.

INSPECTION REPORT
NAME: Morris Reid and Doug Schell
LEGAL DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY: Lot 1 Block 52, Aristocrat Ranchettes Subdivision, Weld
County, Colorado
DATE: February 27, 1995
CASE NUMBER: VI -2172
The property was reinspected to determine compliance with sections 31.2 and 31.3.9 of the Weld County
Zoning Ordinance. The property is not in compliance at this time.
There is still a noncommercial junkyard consisting of three derelict vehicles located on the property without
proper screening from adjacent properties and public rights -of -way. There has been nothing done to bring
the property into compliance since the violation was issued. I phoned Mr. Schell to discuss the departments
concerns but no one was home, I left a message to call me.
To bring the property into compliance with the zoning ordinance the noncommercial junkyard would have
to be removed or screened. A screening plan would need to be submitted to the Department of Planning
Services and approved by the Planning Staff. All material considered to be part of the noncommercial
junkyard must be enclosed within the screened area.

Dear Mr. Reid and Mr. Schell
It has come to the attention of the Department of Planning Services' staff that the uses on your property may
not be in compliance with the Weld County Zoning Ordinance. The potential noncompliance with the zoning
ordinance is a noncommercial junkyard (derelict vehicles ) located on the property without proper screening
from adjacent properties and public rights -of -way. This is not a use allowed by right in the A (agricultural)
zoned district.
Please call me within five working days of the date of this letter to review the concern with me.
Sincerely,
Barry Kramer
