Box 668, Mead, Colorado 80542, requesting a Change of Zone from the A (Agricultural) Zone District to a PUD (Planned Unit Development) District for a parcel of land located on the following described real estate, to- wit: Part of the NE'/ of Section 21, Township 3 North, Range 68 West of the 6th P.M., Weld County, Colorado WHEREAS, the applicant was represented by Todd Hodges, Todd Hodges Design, LLC, and WHEREAS, Section 28.8 of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance provides standards for review of such a Change of Zone, and WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners heard all the testimony and statements of those present, studied the request of the applicant and the recommendations of the Weld County Planning Commission and, having been fully informed, finds that this request shall be approved for the following reasons: 1. The submitted materials are in compliance with the application requirements of Section 5.3 of the Weld County Planned Unit Development Ordinance #197. 2. The submitted materials are in compliance with Section 6.4.6 of the Weld County Planned Unit Development Ordinance #197 as follows: A. Section 6.4.6.2.2 - Section 2.6 of the PUD Ordinance #197 states, "The density, design, and location of land uses within and adjoining a PUD shall be designed to be compatible with other uses within and adjoining the PUD." Although the application proposes urban-scale development without urban infrastructure, the proposed land uses would be consistent with the adjacent Hunter's Ridge Subdivision developed by the Town of Mead. The Weld County Department of Public Health and Environment referral indicates that the application conforms with Section 2.20 of the PUD Ordinance #197; however, the Department did indicate concerns with groundwater conditions and shallow bedrock. B. Section 6.4.6.2.3 - The proposal is located within the three-mile referral area of the Town of Mead. A sketch plan referral response from the , 991502 ahit Euerl J ''9e6 PL1311 , CHANGE OF ZONE FROM A (AGRICULTURAL) TO PUD - MARK AND JACKIE EBERL, % TODD HODGES DESIGN, LLC PAGE 2 Town of Mead states, "...this proposal conflicts with our interests" but also states that "this development would complement the existing Town and would provide continuity in planning and regulating the development of land." Given the Town's desire for the proposal to annex to Mead, the Department of Planning Services' sketch plan comments encouraged the applicant to work with the Town of Mead toward annexation and future connection to their sanitary sewer system as requested in the Town's referral response. The proposed density is consistent with that of Hunter's Ridge Subdivision, which contains 20 one-acre lots. The proposal is surrounded on the north, south and west by agricultural uses. Staff would require that the Right to Farm Covenant be placed on the plat. C. Section 6.4.6.2.4 - This application does not propose public sewer. Private septic systems are proposed for each individual lot. The Weld County Department of Public Health and Environment referral indicates that the application satisfies PUD Ordinance #197 with regard to water and sewer service. Public water is proposed to be supplied by the Little Thompson Water District and the application materials include a conditional service commitment letter. However, the Colorado Division of Water Resources stated in its sketch plan referral that "pursuant to Section 30-28-136(1)(h)(II), it is our opinion that the [Little Thompson Water] District has not submitted sufficient evidence documenting that the proposed water supply can be provided without causing injury to existing water rights." D. Section 6.4.6.2.5 - The Weld County Public Works Department's referral comments indicate conditional approval of the application. The Public Works Department has requested that dust suppressant and provision for street grading for the internal road be assured through the Improvement's Agreement, and that the typical road cross-section be placed on the plat. E. Section 6.4.6.2.6 - In the event the street or highway facilities are not adequate, the applicant shall supply information which demonstrates the willingness and financial capacity to upgrade the street or highway facilities in conformance with the Transportation Section of the Comprehensive Plan, Subdivision Ordinance, and the MUD Ordinance, if applicable. This shall be shown by submitting, with the PUD district application, a separate proposal for on-site and off-site road improvements. This proposal shall describe, in detail, the type of on-site improvements with Section 12 of the Subdivision Ordinance and off-site road improvements in compliance with Section 13 of the Subdivision Ordinance, to determine if the requirement for street or highway facilities providing access to the property has been satisfied. The method of guarantee shall conform with Weld County's policy regarding Collateral for Improvements. 991502 PL1311 CHANGE OF ZONE FROM A (AGRICULTURAL) TO PUD - MARK AND JACKIE EBERL, ck TODD HODGES DESIGN, LLC PAGE 3 F.

Section 6.4.3.1.8 - Lot 9, the 63.162-acre southernmost lot, is proposed to allow for A (Agricultural) Zone District uses, which is consistent with surrounding agriculturally zoned land to the north, south, and west.
