THE DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING SERVICES' STAFF RECOMMENDS THAT THIS REQUEST BE DENIED FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS: It is the opinion of the Department of Planning Services' staff that the applicant has not demonstrated that a substantial change in the facts and circumstances in the land -use application, in the surrounding land -uses or in applicable provisions of the law has occurred. The applicant's original application indicated that individual wells would be used for water supply. The applicant now proposes to use a series of wells throughout the development connected together accommodating several dwellings on each well meeting the minimum regulatory requirements for a public water supply. The Board of County Commissioners Denied the Change of Zone request on September 7, 1994. Concerns raised during the review of the Change of Zone included the absence of a public water supply, but was not limited to only that concern. The concerns included consistency with the Weld County Zoning Ordinance, Consistency with the Weld County Comprehensive Plan Agricultural, Urban Growth, Residential, Public Facilities and Services, Transportation, and Environmental Quality and Natural Resources Goals and Policies; the uses proposed in the E (Estate) Zone District was not compatible with the existing surrounding land uses; that the soils at the location have limitations due to low strength when used for local roads and streets; and, that the roads and access to the site are inadequate to meet the requirements of the proposed zone district and the applicant had not expressed a willingness to upgrade the highway facilities at the applicant's expense. The Board of County Commissioners resolution is attached to this recommendation. Additionally the applicant has not demonstrated that there is newly discovered evidence that could not have discovered with diligent effort at the time of the original application. Sketch Plan S-355 for Martin Brothers Partnership identified that a public water supply would be required for a proposed P.U.D. residential subdivision, and this was brought to the applicant's attention before and during the Change of Zone Case Z-489 which this request is being made. 9506S 3 #0itto 111�`P� COLORADO January 5, 1995 DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING SERVICES PHONE (303) 353-6100, EXT.3540 FAX (303) 351-0978 WELD COUNTY ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICES 1400 N. 17TH AVENUE GREELEY, COLORADO 80631 Weld County Planning Commission 1400 North 17th Avenue Greeley, Colorado, 80631 Subject: SCH-13 Martin Brothers Partnership- Located in part of the SW'/ and part of the NW IA of Section 12, Township 1 North, Range 66 West of the 6th P.M., Weld County, Colorado.

Martin Martin Brothers Partnership 147 S. Denver Avenue Fort Lupton, CO 80621 Subject: S-355 - Planned Unit Development (PUD) Sketch Plan application located in part of the SW4 and part of the NW4 of Section 12, T1N, R66Wof.the 6th P. M., Weld County, Colorado. Dear Mr. Martin: The Department of Planning Services' staff has completed a review of the 34 lot rural residential Planned Unit Development Sketch Plan. The sketch plan area consists of approximately 200 acres, more or less. Copies of the following referral agencies' comments are enclosed: Weld County Engineering Department, City of Fort Lupton, Weld RE -8 School District, Farmers Reservoir and Irrigation Company, Fort Lupton Fire Department, Weld County Health Department, and the Weld County Sheriff's Department, Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission, Colorado Office of the State Engineer, and the Platte Valley Soil Conservation District. The Department of Planning Services' staff has the following comments: 1. The PUD Sketch Plan does not appear to meet the Weld County Comprehensive Plan's Agricultural, Urban Growth Boundary, Planned Unit Development and Transportation Goals and Policies. A. Agricultural Policy #1 suggests agricultural uses should be done in an orderly manner, and Agricultural Policy #3 indicates conversion of agricultural land should be completed in an orderly manner, and Agricultural Goal #4 suggests residential uses should be encouraged to locate in existing incorporated municipalities. The proposed Planned Unit Development will remove prime agricultural land, totaling approximately 100 acres from production, and is not within or adjacent to a municipality. Therefore, this proposal is inconsistent with the Agricultural Section of the Weld County Comprehensive Plan. B. Urban Growth Boundary Policy #1 indicates land -use development proposals within an urban growth boundary shall be encouraged so long as they conform to the desires of the municipality as expressed in its comprehensive plan or by its land -use decision making body and if the municipality has agreed to provide services. Fort Lupton is not providing any services. You may wish to meet with Fort Lupton officials to determine if the City is willing and able to provide services. 950693 John T. Martin, 5-355 April 20, 1994 Page 2 C. Planned Unit Development Policy #4.C. states, "A planned unit development which includes a residential use shall provide common open -space free of buildings, streets, driveways or parking areas. The common open -space shall be designed and located to be easily accessible to all the residents of the project and usable for open - space and recreation..." This sketch plan does not include any open -space, and is inconsistent with this portion of the Comprehensive Plan. D. The first Transportation Policy requires that all roads are adequate in width, structural capacity, and classification to meet the traffic demands dictated by any development. At the present time, there is no public access to the proposed Planned Unit Development. ? The intent of the Planned .Unit. Development is to allow an alternative means for property owners to apply flexibility in developing their land which may not be possible under the normal application of the Zoning and Subdivision Ordinances. The sketch plan proposed could potentially be consistent with Estate zoning. A change of zone to Estate should be considered, since elements of the application are similar to this type of zoning. 3. Section 35.3.3 of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance states, "A PUD District shall be serviced by an adequate water and sewer system." A PIJD with residential uses shall be served with a public water system." The application could not be considered until a public water supply is available to the site. The following issues need to be addressed if you propose continuing with the PUD District application: Since Weld County Roads 35 and 10 do not exist at this site, rights -of -way may need to be obtained by the applicant to allow for the construction of these roads. This development needs to be compatible with existing surrounding land uses, including a brine water facility, pasture, dryland crops, and rural residences. Common open space needs to: A. Be provided. B. Be owned and maintained in perpetuity by an organization established solely for such ownership and maintenance purposes. C. Be indicated as to size and type. The site shall be served by an adequate public water supply. Clarify what uses will be permitted on lot 1A. Indicate legal access is available to the site 9S.O6S3 John T. Martin, S-355 April 20, 1994 Page 3 Indicate how this proposal is consistent with the Weld County Comprehensive Plan. Indicate how potential conflicts between the proposed uses within the PUD and the Speer Canal will be addressed. According to the Weld County Coal Resources map which is included with the Weld County Comprehensive Plan, this site is underlain by strippable coal resources. Provide information which addresses the availability of this resource. The Colorado Geological Survey will review the information submitted. According to the Weld County Sand, Gravel Resources map which accompanies the Weld County Comprehensive Plan, this site has Eolian sand deposits. Provide information which addresses the availability of this resource. The. Colorado Geological Survey will review the information submitted. Clarify if, or where, oil and gas interest owners and lessees will have access to any underlying reserves. If no oil and gas development is allowed, then demonstrate you own the mineral rights. Section 10.5 of the Subdivision Ordinance should be reviewed to determine appropriate easements. Clarify how the design and construction of local roads and streets will be abletoovercome moderate limitations of the underlying soils. Indicate what aspects about this proposal are unique or flexible to utilize the PUD process. Indicate if any abandoned and plugged oil and gas wells exist on the property. If any plugged wells do exist on the property, note their location on the plat. - If you decide to proceed with the PUD process, the next step is to apply for a Change of Zone to PUD District. The PUD District procedure is explained in Section 28.5 of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance. As part of the PUD District application, the application materials shall include information addressing the concerns expressed by: A. Donald Carroll, Weld County Engineering Department, in his referral response of March 25, 1994. B. James E. Meyer, City of Fort Lupton Representative, in his referral response of March 23, 1994. C.

A new plan has been proposed by our engineers, W. R. C., Inc. of Denver, and discussed with Lee Morrison, assistant County attorney, whose opinion was that the changes met the requirement. The proposal is as follows: The system will consist of a series of wells throughout the development, each accommodating several dwellings on each well. The wells in turn will be piped together to guarantee adequate flow. A Homeowners Association will be created in accordance with the Colorado Common Interest Ownership Act. The Association would have powers to transmit, store, treat, collect and distribute water. It will also have powers to build, maintain and operate the system. It is the opinion of W. R. C. Engineers, experienced in designing and building similar systems, that this would be more than adequate to serve this subdivision at an affordable cost to the homeowners. We feel that this plan is a substantial change from our original plan of individual wells and will meet Weld County's Comprehensive Plan. Thank you for considering our request. Sincerely, At,i .� John T. Martin Enclosure it' N0V + 7 1994 J 9506S3 Hello
