PLANNING: CONSIDER RE #1758 - MCINTYRE: Shani Eastin, Planning Department, presented staffs review and concerns for the record. Keith McIntyre, applicant, responded to questions from the Board stating the City of Greeley owns the parcel to the north; however, he does not know if said parcel is within the City limits. He confirmed there is sewer north of "F" Street, but connection would require a pump station, etc., and noted neighbors who attempted to connect were refused by the City. Mr. McIntyre stated no water is available, and a well is the only alternative. He reiterated the site is non-productive farm property and presented several photos for the record as Exhibit A. He stated the ground is dryland and the people who have contracted for Lot B desire to build a home and preserve the attractiveness of the area. Mr. McIntyre confirmed accesses exist off "F" Street to both Lots A and B and one share of irrigation water to Lot B is included in the contract for sale. He also confirmed the access to Lot B crosses the ditch via a bridge. No public testimony was offered. Bruce Barker, County Attorney, read language for Condition of Approval #4 requiring one share of ditch water be transferred to Lot B, and discussion ensued concerning an additional Condition of Approval #5 regarding the well permit. Commissioner Webster moved to approve RE #1758 for Keith McIntyre including four Conditions of Approval. After further discussion, Commissioner Webster agreed to include Condition of Approval #5 in his motion, which was seconded by Commissioner Harbert and carried unanimously. Let the record reflect Lee Morrison, Assistant County Attorney, is now the attorney of record. CONSIDER PROBABLE CAUSE FOR SUP #454 - DUCKWORTH (CONT. FROM 05/17/95): Keith Schuett, Planning Department, stated the technical issues of this matter are being pursued by the EPA and the State and local Health Departments. He also stated there is an issue of land application of waste onto the Martin property and noted Weld County Waste Disposal, Inc., is $211,250.00 in arrears to the County for fees required by Ordinance No. 164-A. Mr. Schuett stated a letter dated August 1, 1995, was received by FAX indicating Richard Judd, applicant's attorney, would not be present at today's hearing and will rely on the record of proceedings. Responding to questions from the Board, Mr. Schuett confirmed his recommendation that all matters be continued to February 21, 1996. Mr. Morrison stated the facility is now closed and is not likely to open without a new Permit application. He, too, recommended a continuance of this Probable Cause Hearing considering the level of staff preparation for a Show Cause Hearing. Mr. Morrison also suggested the Permit be left in the applicant's name until the EPA process is further established for responsibility purposes. He stated threatening revocation of the Permit probably will not result in payment of the fees in arrears and suggested that matter be referred to the County Attorney's Office for collection. Mr. Schuett reiterated his recommendation to continue this matter to February 1996, to allow resolution with the EPA and the problem with land application of waste on the Martin property. Commissioner Webster moved to continue said matter to February 21, 1996, at 9:00 a.m. Mr. Schuett noted Health Department representatives as well as a representative for the Martin property are present. After discussion, Commissioner Webster withdrew his motion. Jeff Stoll and Trevor Jiricek, Weld County Health Department representatives, reviewed a timeline proposal to the EPA from HS Resources and Amoco Oil and Gas Company. It was noted remediation would start after the Site Characterization Work Plan is complete and also that issues are addressed in the EPA's order. Minutes, August 2, 1995 951493 Page 3 BC0016 Mr. Stoll confirmed the Martin property, however, is not addressed in the EPA's order and confirmed the Health Department is also recommending continuance to February 21, 1996. Mr. Jiricek stated staff is working with the landowner of the Martin property, but Mr. Duckworth has not been involved. He and Mr. Stoll confirmed more definite steps for remediation would be available after the Site Plan is complete. Steve Laudeman, Colorado Health Department, concurred with Mr. Stoll and Mr. Jiricek concerning the proposal from HS and Amoco and noted the cleanup and remediation could take quite some time after the completion of the Site Plan. He noted the water is to be removed by November 28, 1995, and confirmed Mr. Duckworth has not taken a major role in the clean up, but has let HS and Amoco handle the matter. Mr. Laudeman also confirmed correspondence concerning the Martin property, which he believes is not a health problem, but suggests the contaminated soils be removed. He noted a financial decision has not yet been made, but the Martins are cooperating. The representative for the Martin property stated he is present for observation only. After further discussion, Commissioner Kirkmeyer moved to continue said matter to February 21, 1996, at 9:00 a.m., and to refer the matter concerning the facility's $211,250.00 in arrears to the County Attorney's Office. Commissioner Harbert seconded the motion, which carried unanimously. RESOLUTIONS AND ORDINANCES: The resolutions were presented and signed as listed on the consent agenda. There were no ordinances.
