Property Ownership Information
The property is owned by Dennis and Carolyn Seewald and is under contract by the applicant.
The Title Commitment is attached hereto as Exhibit A.
Legal Description
The legal description of the property is attached hereto as Exhibit B.
Project Concept
The ODP provides for P.U.D. zoning districts of single family residential and neighborhood
commercial. As per the Town of Firestone's P.U.D. requirements, "neighborhood commercial
land use category permits industrial, commercial, office, and residential use to occur."
Residential and neighborhood commercial land uses are also compatible with the comprehensive
plan and surrounding area. These land uses will provide the Town of Firestone and region with
a variety of housing types, size, and densities to accommodate a range of incomes and services.
The ODP also proposes parks that will connect to the regional trail system as identified in the
2
972213
Town of Firestone's Comprehensive Plan. This open space will serve as recreational areas and
will be accessible to local residents and the surrounding community.
Regional Impacts
The ODP is consistent with the goals of the Town of Firestone's Comprehensive Plan. By
complying with the Comprehensive Plan, the development will fit compatibly into the existing
and future Town. Moreover, this proposal will provide housing for a growing employment base
in the region. By adhering to the Town's design standards and identifying future road
improvements, the ODP has taken into consideration vehicular circulation and access issues and
will not negatively impact existing transportation systems.
Environmental Information
The property is relatively flat and is entirely used as sprinkler irrigated farmland. No trees or
unique habitats exist on the land. Therefore, there will be no impacts to any significant natural
features or environmental components.
Utilities and Service Requirements
The following utilities and services are intended to serve the ODP.
Police Protection
Ambulance Service
Potable Water
Street Maintenance
Sanitary Sewer
Fire Protection
School

Schools
The ODP intends to cooperate with the Town of Firestone and the school district to provide the
appropriate fees.
Sanitary Sewer
The St. Vrain Sanitation District is extending a line south to Section 7. At this time, the location
of the sewer line is proposed (west of the property and east of WCR 13). This option can
adequately serve the site.
Potable Water
A water line is situated along WCR 24. It is the intent of the ODP to use this water by working
with the Town of Firestone and the Central Weld County Water District.
Storm Water Management
The ODP is committed to working with the Town of Firestone and adjacent property owners to
3
9722.18
assure that proper storm water management practices and facilities are provided.
Parks and Recreation
The ODP intends to adhere to the open space requirement as specified in the Town of Firestone's
standards and proposes to link with the regional trail along the abandoned railroad line.
The responsibility of parks and trails maintenance within the ODP will be determined at the time
of the preliminary development plan process.
Circulation Systems
The access points are illustrated on the ODP. However, the exact location of the access points
and roadways will be refined in the preliminary and final development plan process. In addition,
this ODP intends to provide pedestrian circulation that is safe and connects to the regional trail
system.
Oil and Gas Company Access
The ODP proposes to cooperate with any oil and gas company that operates oil and/or gas wells
on the property. Specifically, the access to each well site will be maintained.
Land Use and Zoning
The existing land use and zoning of the ODP is agricultural. The land uses of the properties
adjacent to the parcel are residential, agricultural, and vacant.
The zoning for the property is Planned Unit Development. Under this zoning, residential and
neighborhood commercial are proposed which will offer a variety of residential types and
services.
The PUD zoning district is appropriate for this property for the following reasons:
• The proposed PUD district is compatible with present development in the surrounding
area, and will not have a significant, adverse effect on the surrounding area;
• The proposed PUD district is consistent with the public health, safety, and welfare, as
well as efficiency and economy in the use of land and its resources;
• The proposed PUD district is consistent with the overall direction, intent of Chapter 7 and
Title 17 of the Town Code, and the intent and policies of the Town's comprehensive plan
and other policy documents of the Town;
• The proposed PUD district provides for a creative and innovative design which could not
otherwise be achieved through other standard zoning districts;
• The exceptions from the zoning regulations in the proposed PUD are warranted by virtue
of innovative design and amenities incorporated in the PUD district;
4

provide for buffering from collector and arterial streets through earthen berms,
landscaping, and other methods;
• The PUD provides functional open space in terms of practical usability and accessibility,
and optimum preservation of natural features, including trees and drainage areas,
recreation, views, natural stream courses, bodies of water, and wetlands;
• To the extent practicable, the PUD provides variety in terms of housing types, housing
size, densities, facilities, and open space;
• The PUD provides for pedestrian and bicycle traffic in terms of safety, separation,
convenience, access, destination and attractiveness. If possible, there shall be an internal
pedestrian circulation system separate from the vehicular system such that allows access
to adjacent parcels, parks, open space, or recreational facilities within the PUD as well as
links to trail systems of the Town;
• The PUD provides building types in terms of appropriateness to density, site relationship
and bulk;
• The PUD provides building design in terms of orientation, spacing, materials, color,
texture, storage, signs, and lighting;
• The PUD provides landscaping of the site in terms of purpose, such as screening, types
and materials used, maintenance suitability, water demands and effect on the area;
• Services including utilities, fire, and police protection and other such services are
available or can be made available to adequately serve the development;
• No structures in the PUD shall encroach on a floodplain except as permitted by the
Town's floodplain ordinance;

Firestone Development Annexations
To the Town of Firestone
Weld County, Colorado
I. Project Description
The locations of the proposed Firestone Development Annexations
(Parcels 1, 2 and 3) are generally shown on Exhibit A and specifically
shown as Exhibit B. The area to be annexed includes approximately 148
acres of predominately vacant land (Parcel 3) and approximately 16 acres
of County road right-of-way (Parcels 1 and 2) in unincorporated Weld
County.
Because of other annexation petitions being considered by the Town for
Weld County 24, portions of these proposed annexations may become
annexed to the Town prior to action on the Firestone Development
Annexations. It is expected that this potential situation would not cause a
processing problem for these annexations. However, for the sake of
consistency, it will be assumed for this annexation impact report that Weld
County Road 24 will not be annexed prior to action on this proposal by the
Town. In any respect, consistent with State Law (CRS § 31-12-105,
applicable to platted streets and alleys) and the agreed upon policy
between the Town and the County, the Town will not annex "one-half' of
any County roadway.
In conjunction with the proposed annexations, the zoning for the subject
property is anticipated to change from Weld County agricultural zoning to
Town of Firestone Planned Unit Development. The Town Board will review
the annexation and zoning proposals in relation to the Town's current land
use and development policies and intergovernmental agreements. A referral
relative to the land use for the property has also been sent to various
County departments for comments.
For your reference, Parcel 3 of the Firestone Development Annexations
does extend somewhat north of the Town of Firestone Comprehensive Plan
Map Tier 1 area but is within the Tier 2 area. The general Tier 1 area was
not delineated based on property ownership. The general relationship
between the property and the Comprehensive Plan Map is shown on
Exhibit A. The proposed land use plan is shown as Exhibit C. The Town is
in the process of considering a modification to the Tier 1 area of the
Comprehensive Plan to make it more consistent with property ownership
boundary lines. The Town believes such an area north of the current Tier 1

boundary, and north of the outermost boundary of the southern Weld
County Planning area, may be annexed consistent with the Interim
Coordinated Planning IGA, since the parcel cannot be divided for
annexation without the owner's consent.
II. Municipal Services
Municipal services for the Firestone Development Annexations will be
provided in the following manner:
Electricity United Power
Natural Gas K -N Energy and/or Public Service Company
Telephone US West
Water Town of Firestone
Sewer St. Vain Sanitation District
Fire Mountain View Area Fire Protection District
Police Firestone Police Department
Financing for the extension of and/or the improvement of the municipal
services will primarily be the responsibility of the property owner/developer,
through appropriate agreements and financing and completion guarantees.
Additional funding for provision of municipal services provided by the Town
will be financed through impact fees, taxes, charges and/or special
improvement districts, if necessary.
There exists a 16 -inch water line in WCR 15 that the Town will connect to
in order to serve the property. A sanitary sewer trunk line is planned to be
constructed by the St. Vrain Sanitation District in close proximity to the
property.
A general map showing approximate existing and planned locations of
transportation facilities, water and sewer facilities, existing ditches, and
other utilities is shown as Exhibit D. Access to the property will have to
comply to the Town's recently adopted Access Code.
III. Special Districts
A. The area proposed to be annexed is within the following districts:
• Weld Library District
St. Vrain Valley School District RE -1J
• Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District
Prepared
September 25, 1997
2
• Mountain View Fire Protection District
B. The area to be annexed will petition for inclusion into the St. Vain
Sanitation District and other special districts, as appropriate.
IV. School District Impact
The Town of Firestone sent the St. Vrain Valley School District RE -1J
school district a referral regarding this annexation and the currently
proposed land uses. Attached as Exhibit E is a copy of the
Intergovernmental Agreement between the Town of Firestone and the St.
Vrain Valley School District RE -1J. Based on the methodology
incorporated in the Agreement and the corresponding Town ordinance, the
estimated maximum number of students generated from development will
be approximately 250. Capital construction needs will be met by utilization
of school impact fees and existing and planned facilities.

VI. Annexation Agreement
Although all the details of an annexation agreement between the Town and
the applicant have not been negotiated, The Town of Firestone's standard
annexation agreement is attached as Exhibit F.
VII. Intergovernmental Agreement With Weld County
The Interim Coordinated Planning Agreement Between the Town of
Firestone, Weld County, et al. is attached as Exhibit G. As noted above
these annexations are within the Town of Firestone Comprehensive Plan
area. However, Parcel 3 does extend somewhat north of the generally
identified urban growth area boundary. As discussed with the County,
because Parcel 3 is in single ownership such annexation would not be
inconsistent with the Interim Coordinated Planning Agreement. It should
also be noted that the Town is willing to coordinate a formal amendment to
this northern limit of the Firestone Urban Growth Boundary, as shown on
the IGA map, if the Comprehensive Plan is amended as noted in Section I,
and if such map revision is deemed necessary to implement the
interpretation set forth in Section I above.

INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT CONCERNING FAIR CONTRIBUTIONS FOR
PUBLIC SCHOOL SITES BETWEEN THE TOWN OF FIRESTONE AND
THE ST. VRAIN VALLEY SCHOOL DISTRICT RE -1J
THIS AGREEMENT is entered into by and between the Town of Firestone, a municipal
corporation, and the St. Vrain Valley School District RE -1J (School District), a political subdivision of
the State of Colorado, to be effective as of the day of , 1997.
RECITALS
A. Local governments are encouraged and authorized to cooperate or contract with
other units of government, pursuant to C.R.S. 29-20-105, for the purpose of planning or regulating
the development of land, including, but not limited to, the joint exercise of planning, zoning,
subdivision, building, and related regulations.
B. Growth in residential land development and the construction of new residential
dwellings in the Town necessitates the acquisition of additional public school sites to accommodate
the corresponding increases in the student population. Requiring land dedication or conveyance for
public school sites or payments in lieu of land dedication or conveyance for public school sites
(hereinafter collectively referred to as "Fair Contribution for Public School Sites') will provide a
portion of the land to meet such demand.
C. To provide adequate public school sites to serve the Town residents of newly
constructed residential dwelling units, it is appropriate that the School District and Town cooperate
in the area of public school site acquisition by use of Fair Contribution for Public School Sites.
D. Requiring Fair Contribution for Public School Sites implements the goals and policies of
the Town to make provision for public improvements in a manner appropriate for a modern,
efficiently functioning town and to ensure that new development does not negatively impact the
provision of municipal services.
E It is a reasonable exercise of the power of local self-government to require Fair
Contribution for Public School Sites as a method of ensuring that new residential construction and
residential development bear a proportionate share of the cost of public school sites acquisition
necessary to accommodate the educational service capacity demands of the residents who will be
living in the new dwelling units.
F. Requiring Fair Contribution for Public School Sites for new residential construction and
development is reasonable and necessary to protect, enhance, and preserve the public health,
safety, and welfare of the Town's citizens.

INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT CONCERNING FAIR CONTRIBUTIONS FOR
PUBLIC SCHOOL SITES BETWEEN THE TOWN OF FIRESTONE AND
THE ST. VRAIN VALLEY SCHOOL DISTRICT RE -1J
G The Town and School District, upon consideration of the impacts of new residential
construction and residential land development on the ability of the School District to provide public
school facilities in the Town, agree that it is in the best interests of the citizens of the Town to
mutually enter into an intergovernmental agreement for the purpose of providing for Fair
Contribution for Public School Sites, as provided in this Agreement.
H. The Town and School District do hereby define the rights and obligations of each
entity with respect to the planning, collection, and use of Fair Contribution for Public School Sites.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the objectives and policies expressed in the recitals
and the mutual promises contained in this Agreement, the Town and School District agree as
follows:
1. School Site Coordination and Development Referrals
a. The School District agrees to locate future public school sites in conformity with the
adopted plan of the town, insofar as is feasible, and to consult with and advise the Town in writing
in advance of public school sites acquisition and site development.
b. The Town shall refer to the School District all residential land development applications
for review and comment concerning the adequacy of public school sites and facilities. The Town will
consider the School District's comments in conjunction with the review and processing of each
individual residential development application, and will implement land dedication for public school
sites or payments in lieu of land dedication for public school sites consistent with this Agreement
and the municipal code then in effect. If a nonresidential land development application is filed with
the Town that may have influence or effect on property owned by or activities of the School
District, the Town shall also refer information pertaining to that application to the School District
for review and comment. The School District agrees to promptly review the referred development
application and promptly submit its comments, recommendations, and requests to the Town.

2. Methodology
a. Contemporaneous with the Effective Date and the effective date of the Town municipal
code amendment requiring Fair Contribution for Public School Sites, the Town agrees to enforce
such municipal code amendment as a precondition to the lawfully authorized construction of new
residential dwelling units not otherwise exempted under Section 5 below and the Town municipal
code.
b. The School District has adopted a methodology dated February 2, 1996
(Methodology), to determine Fair Contribution for Public School Sites for five categories of dwelling
units. The Parties agree the Methodology, attached and incorporated herein as Exhibit A, has been
developed in a manner so as to fairly apportion the cost of acquiring public school sites made
necessary by new residential development.
c. As part of the Methodology, the School District has adopted planning standards
related to facility enrollment capacities, public school site acreage requirements, and student yields
for each of five types of residential dwellings (single family homes, duplexes/triplexes, multi -family
units, condos/townhouses, and mobile homes). The Town and School District agree that the
Methodology is reasonable and the approved then -current Methodology shall apply to new
residential construction within the Town. The Methodology shall be the basis for computing Fair
Contribution for Public School Sites for new residential construction. The Town and School District
agree that the Methodology adopted by the School District shall be periodically reviewed and
revised to reflect the current standards and conditions within the School District.
d. Unless and until modified by the parties, the Methodology and its supplementary
background materials shall include, but shall not be limited to, the following factors:
(1) School planning standards which establish the student yields and technical and
educational specifications for facilities for each category of school facility (elementary, middle, and
high school levels), consistent with the policy of the Board of Education of the School District;
(2) The capacity demand of each category of school facility resulting from each
category of residential dwelling (single family, duplexes/triplexes, multi -family units,
condos/townhouses, and mobile homes);
(3) The means for determining the per acre
of residential dwelling; and
4/28/97 - Page 3
fair market value of land for each type
INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENTCONCERNING FAIR CONTRIBUTIONS FOR
PUBLIC SCHOOL SITES BETWEEN THE TOWN OF FIRESTONE AND
THE ST. VRAIN VALLEY SCHOOL DISTRICT RE -1J
(4) The procedure for calculating Fair Contribution for Public School Sites required
and applicable to each type of residential dwelling.
a The Methodology shall be updated periodically as conditions warrant by the mutual
consent of the Town and the School District. A copy of the updated Methodology shall be
furnished to the Town within 30 days after its adoption by the School District. The Town shall hold
a public hearing before revising the Methodology.
3. Fair Contribution for Public School Sites Requirement
a. As Fair Contribution for Public School Sites, any person or entity, as part of an
applicable land development application shall dedicate or convey land for a public school site to the
School District, or in the event the dedication of land is not deemed feasible or in the best interests
of the School District as determined by the Superintendent or designee, the School District may
require a payment in lieu of land dedication or conveyance to the School District. The manner and
amount of either type of Fair Contribution for Public School Sites shall be as stated in this
Agreement and the incorporated Methodology. This shall not preclude the School District and any
person or entity from mutually agreeing to resolve the issue of Fair Contribution for Public School
Sites in a manner other than as stated above.
b. If the Fair Contribution for Public School Sites includes the dedication of land,
according to paragraph 3.a. above, the Town agrees before recording of the final plat to require
proof that the dedication has been made to the School District in accordance with the following
requirements:
(1) The person or entity has conveyed to the School District by general warranty
deed, title to the land slated for dedication, which title is to be free and clear of all liens,
encumbrances, and exceptions (except those approved in writing by the School District), including,
without limitation, real property taxes, which will be prorated to the date of conveyance or
dedication.
(2) At the time of dedication or conveyance, the person or entity shall provide a
title insurance commitment and policy in an amount equal to the fair market value of the dedicated
property. At the appropriate time, not later than the issuance of the first building permit for the
land development project, the person or entity shall also pay or provide for the payment of one-
half of street development costs, and shall either provide, or pay or make provision for the
payment of the Costs associated with making improvements for water, sewer, and utilities stubbed
to the dedicated land, and for overlot grading of the dedicated land.

INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT CONCERNING FAIR CONTRIBUTIONS FOR
PUBLIC SCHOOL SITES BETWEEN THE TOWN OF FIRESTONE AND
THE ST. VRAIN VALLEY SCHOOL DISTRICT RE -1J
c. The Town agrees that before issuing a building permit for any residential dwelling unit
not otherwise exempted under Section 5 below, it will require proof that the Fair Contribution for
Public School Sites, according to paragraph 3.a. or 3.b. above, has been received by the School
District. The superintendent of the School District, or the superintendent's designee, shall provide
such proof in a timely manner to the town clerk of the Town.
d. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall preclude the School District from
commenting to the Town upon the adequacy of public school sites or facilities, necessary in its
judgment, to serve the proposed residential land development project.
4. Use of Fair Contribution for Public School Sites
a. The School District shall hold or deposit in trust for public school sites all funds it
receives as Fair Contribution for Public School Sites, and all funds it may receive from the sale of
land dedicated or conveyed as Fair Contribution for Public School Sites. The School District shall
meet all requirements of C.R.S. 29-1-801 to -803, if applicable. The School District shall be solely
responsible for each Fair Contribution for Public School Sites it receives. No Fair Contribution for
Public School Sites shall constitute revenue of the Town under the provisions of Article X, Section 20
of the Colorado Constitution.
b. The School District shall use all funds it receives as Fair Contribution for Public School
Sites solely for acquisition, development, or expansion of public school sites or for capital facilities
planning, site acquisition, or school site capital outlay purposes within the senior high school feeder
attendance area boundaries that include the residential dwelling unit for which the Fair Contribution
for Public School Sites was paid. Subject to the limitations in this Agreement, the time for, nature,
method, and extent of each public school site planning, acquisition, or development shall be within
the sole discretion of the School District.
c. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any funds received as Fair
Contribution for Public School Sites the School District has not used for acquisition or development
of public school sites within ten years of collection it shall tender for refund, with interest earned
and credited according to C.R.S. 29.1-801 to -803, to the person who made the Fair Contribution
for Public School Sites. The School District shall give written notice by first-class mail to the person
who made the Fair Contribution for Public School Sites at his or her address as reflected in the
records maintained by the School District. If the person does not file a written claim for refund of
the funds within the School District within 90 days of the mailing of such notice, the Fair
Contribution for Public School Sites refund shall be forfeited and revert to the School District to be
utilized for capital facilities or improvements that will benefit the residence for which Fair
Contribution for Public School Sites funds were paid.

is to establish procedures and standards pursuant to which the
parties will move toward greater coordination in the exercise of
their land use and related regulatory powers within the
unincorporated areas surrounding each MUNICIPALITY. The objectives
of such efforts are to accomplish the types of development in such
areas which best protect the health, safety, prosperity, and
general welfare of the inhabitants thereof by reducing the waste of

require services such as central water and sewer systems, road
networks, park and recreation services, storm drainage, and
the like, and which are generally considered to be rural in
nature, expressly including land used or capable of being used
for agricultural production and including developments which
combine clustered residential uses and agricultural uses in a
manner that the agricultural lands are suitable for farming
and ranching operations for the next forty years.
2.3 Recorded Exemption. The division of one lot into two
or three lots pursuant to § § 11.2 and 11.9 of the Weld County
Subdivision Ordinance.

11.11.1 of the Weld County Subdivision Ordinance. -
2.6 Urban Development. Development which is
characterized by development density typical to urbanized
areas and requires services such as central water and sewer
systems, road networks, park and recreation facilities and
programs, storm drainage, and other similar services which are
typically furnished by municipalities.
2.7 Urban Growth Area. All lands within the Southern
Weld Planning Area which, as of the effective date of this
Agreement, are not located within the boundaries of any of the
MUNICIPALITIES, but are defined within a MUNICIPALITY's
comprehensive plan as being within that MUNICIPALITY's Urban
Growth Area. (See attached Exhibit B, map)

applicable to each MUNICIPALITY's Urban Growth Area, and
applicable to the COUNTY, will include without limitation,
each party's own comprehensive plan, and each party's
regulations addressing the phasing of development, zoning and
subdivision, environmental and landscaping controls,

the Plan, and to implement, administer, and enforce the same
within each party's jurisdiction.
3.4 The parties shall update the Plan once every five
(5) years after the effective date of the Plan, unless a
greater or lesser time frame is agreed to by all of the
parties by a separate writing. The update shall include a

Development proposal and preliminary COUNTY staff summary of
the case. The COUNTY will allow not less than twenty-one (21)
days for each of the MUNICIPALITIES to review same and furnish
its comments, recommendations, and objections, if any, to
COUNTY staff prior to formulation of the COUNTY staff
:54157^- „-lbOl P-'ci7L 0.'21'1997 Ol:1 P PC -,
December 10, 1996a
recommendation. If the MUNICIPALITIES do not respond within
such time limitation, COUNTY staff may proceed with its
recommendation. However, notwithstanding such time
limitation, any comments, recommendation, or objection from
any MUNICIPALITY which is received by the County on or before
the Thursday next preceding the meeting of the Board of County
Commissioners or Planning Commission at which the matter will
be considered will be transmitted to the Board or Commission.
If NO MUNICIPALITY submits any comment, recommendation, or
objection, the COUNTY may assume none of the MUNICIPALITIES
have any objection to the proposal. If one or more of the
MUNICIPALITIES submits a recommendation or objection, the
COUNTY will either include within its written decision the
reasons for any action taken contrary to the same or furnish
such reasons to the APPLICABLE MUNICIPALITY or MUNICIPALITIES
by a separate writing.
4.2 Development Outside Urban Growth Area. To the
extent legally possible pursuant to the Plan and the COUNTY's
land use regulations as described in Section 3.2, the COUNTY
will disapprove all proposals for Urban Development in areas
of the Southern Weld Planning Area outside the Urban Growth
Area. This section shall not require disapproval of a
recorded exemption solely because the smaller parcel is less
than two and one-half (2) acres in size.
4.3 Development in Urban Growth Area. The following
shall apply to proposed Development in any MUNICIPALITY's
Urban Growth Area:
(a) Upon receipt of any proposal for
Development of property then currently eligible for
voluntary annexation to one or more of the
MUNICIPALITIES, the COUNTY will, in writing, notify the
proponent of the opportunity for annexation and notify
each such MUNICIPALITY of the proposal.

December 10, 1996a
(b) An essential purpose of this Agreement is
to ensure that Urban Development will occur only within
the limits of the applicable MUNICIPALITY or in areas
which are eligible for annexation to such MUNICIPALITY.
Therefore, as a condition of approval of any rezoning,
planned unit development, subdivision, or use by special
review for any commercial or industrial use pursuant to
§31.4.18 of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance #89, as
amended or renumbered (Exhibit A), the COUNTY shall
require that there be executed annexation agreement
between the applicant and the MUNICIPALITY which requires
the owners to annex the property to the MUNICIPALITY upon
the terms and conditions and within the time stated in
the agreement. No such agreement shall be required in
the case of a recorded exemption, subdivision exemption,
or use by special review for oil and gas wells.
c) The MUNICIPALITY will extend, or use its
best efforts to cause any special district providing
sewer services within the MUNICIPALITY to extend,
sanitary sewer service to property in the MUNICIPALITY's
Urban Growth Area, subject to applicable rules and
regulations. Such rules and regulations, if the
MUNICIPALITY is the entity extending such sewer services,
shall include provisions requiring a written contract for
extraterritorial service and the construction of new
mains and other facilities necessary to serve the
property, with costs of such construction assessed in
accordance with said rules and regulations. If the
MUNICIPALITY is the entity extending such sewer services,
the MUNICIPALITY agrees to give notice of any proposed
change in such rules and regulations to the COUNTY at
least twenty-one (21) days prior to adoption.

December 10, 1996a
(d) Each MUNICIPALITY provides municipal water
service to property within its boundaries, subject to its
rules and regulations. Each MUNICIPALITY furnishes such
water service pursuant to agreements with one or more
water districts and/or water conservancy districts.
Each such agreement prohibits the applicable MUNICIPALITY
from serving outside its boundaries or outside the
boundaries of the applicable water district. Water
service is currently available directly from one or more
of said districts in portions of the Urban Growth Area,
subject to the applicable district's rules and
regulations. Contemporaneously with the development of
the Plan, the MUNICIPALITY will negotiate in good faith
with the applicable water district to explore ways in
which the extension of water service within five years
outside each MUNICIPALITY'S boundaries, particularly in
areas not presently included in a district's boundaries,
can be coordinated so as to achieve the purposes stated
in Section 1 above while still recognizing the rights and
obligations of each such district.
(e) In recognition of the availability of
water and sewer service from a MUNICIPALITY or a district
within the Urban Growth Area as indicated in paragraphs
(c) and (d) above, the COUNTY will require water and
sewer service therefrom as a condition of approval of any
subdivision, rezoning or planned unit development, and
will not approve such Development until and unless the
applicant has obtained an approved written contract for
same with the applicable MUNICIPALITY and/or district.
This Agreement shall be prima facie evidence of the
availability of municipal wafer and sewer service within the
meaning of §32-1-203(2.5) (a), C.H.S.

(f) The COUNTY will not grant any waiver of
the then -current street standards of any of the
MUNICIPALITIES for any Development without the consent of
the affected MUNICIPALITY or MUNICIPALITIES. Where no
standards have been adopted, the COUNTY will apply the
MUD street standards.
(g) To the extent legally possible pursuant to
the Plan and the COUNTY's land use regulations as
described in Section 3.2, the COUNTY will deny proposals
for Non -Urban Development in the Urban Growth Area.
Nothing in this subsection shall restrict the COUNTY from
approving, by means of a process such as a recorded
exemption or subdivision exemption, the isolated
partition or division of an ownership parcel containing
at least one residence served by an individual sewage
disposal system at the time of adoption of this agreement
regardless of the size of the resulting parcels.
Nevertheless, the COUNTY will not permit any such
partition or division if the same would frustrate or
hinder genuine Urban Development, as defined in Section
2.6 of this Agreement, in the Urban Growth Area.
(h) If a MUNICIPALITY'S objection to or
recommendation of disapproval of a Development proposal
is based upon a conflict or incompatibility between
proposed uses in the Development and the MUNICIPALITY's
anticipated zoning classification for the property, the
COUNTY will not approve same unless, in the COUNTY's
judgment, (i) such conflict or incompatibility is
unlikely to occur, (ii) that suitable mitigation measures
to be imposed by the COUNTY as conditions of approval
will eliminate or adequately mitigate adverse
consequences of incompatibility or conflict, or (iii) the
MUNICIPALITY'S anticipated zoning classification of the
property is unreasonable because of existing uses of

adjacent property. The MUNICIPALITY shall be given
notice of, and may appear and be heard at, any hearing or
other proceeding at which the COUNTY will consider such
issues.
(i) The parties anticipate that 14.3 (f) -(h)
will be addressed in more detail when the Plan is
adopted.
4.4 Mutuality of Impact Consideration. The parties
recognize that decisions by one party regarding development
may impact property outside of each particular jurisdiction.
The parties agree that those jurisdictional boundaries will
not be the basis for giving any greater or lesser weight to
those impacts during the course of deliberations.
4.5 Referrals to County. (a) The applicable
MUNICIPALITY will refer each proposal for Development which is
presented to the MUNICIPALITY, and which lies within 500 feet
of any property in unincorporated Weld County, to the COUNTY
for its review and recommendation. Such referral will include
at least a copy of the written Development proposal and maps.
The MUNICIPALITY will allow not less than twenty-one (21) days
for the COUNTY to review same and furnish its comments,
recommendations, and objections, if any, to the MUNICIPALITY.
If the COUNTY submits no comment or recommendation, or
objection, the MUNICIPALITY may assume the County has no
objection to the proposal. If the COUNTY submits a
recommendation or objection, the MUNICIPALITY will either
include within its written decision the reasons for any action
taken contrary to the same or furnish such reasons to the
COUNTY by a separate writing. Where the DEVELOPMENT is
proposed as part of an annexation, the provisions of this
section shall be deemed satisfied by compliance by the
MUNICIPALITY with the notice and impact statement provisions
of the most current version of the Municipal Annexation Act
then in effect.

(b) If any COUNTY recommendation of
disapproval of a Development proposal within 500 feet of
any property in unincorporated Weld County is based upon
a conflict or incompatibility between proposed uses in
the Development and the County's existing zoning
classification for the property, the MUNICIPALITY will
not approve same unless, in the MUNICIPALITY's judgment,
(i) such conflict or incompatibility is unlikely to
occur, (ii) suitable mitigation measures to be imposed by
the MUNICIPALITY as conditions of approval will eliminate
or adequately mitigate adverse consequences of
incompatibility or conflict, or (iii) the COUNTY'S
existing zoning classification of the property is
unreasonable because of existing or planned uses of
adjacent property. The COUNTY shall be given notice of,
and may appear and be heard at, any hearing or other
proceeding at which the MUNICIPALITY will consider such
issues.
5.0 ANNEXATION.
5.1 Each MUNICIPALITY will give serious consideration to
all petitions for annexation of lands within its Urban Growth
Area and will not decline to annex such properties except for
good cause. For the purposes of this section, good cause
includes without limitation the following: (i) the extension
of one or more municipal services to the area would place an
unreasonable economic burden on the MUNICIPALITY, on the
existing users of such services, or on the current and future
residents or owners of property in the area itself; or (ii)
the area is not reasonably contiguous in fact to the
MUNICIPALITY's existing boundaries, and its annexation would
result in disconnected municipal satellite. No MUNICIPALITY
will annex any property located outside its Urban Growth Area
unless such property is both eligible for annexation and is
1543372 G-1601 P -'i-1 041_'1 1997 01:39P PG 10 uF
T

desired by the MUNICIPALITY for municipal functions such as
water or sewer facilities, or other municipal facilities.
5.3 To the extent legally possible, each MUNICIPALITY
will annex the full width of each COUNTY road right of way
adjacent to property annexed by it after the effective date of
this Agreement, unless the County determines that such an
annexation will create piecemeal road jurisdiction in which
case the more appropriate jurisdiction will be requested to
annex However if the MUNICIPALITY determines that such road
serves primarily COUNTY properties rather than existing or
newly annexed properties in the MUNICIPALITY, in which case
the MUNICIPALITY will annex none of such COUNTY road right of
way.
5.4 Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the
contrary, no MUNICIPALITY is obligated to annex any property
within a Development approved by the County after the
effective date of this Agreement, if the Development does not
conform to the Urban Growth Standards established under §§
3.1 and 3.2 herein unless a waiver or modification of such
standards was granted by the COUNTY and approved by the
MUNICIPALITY.
5.5 In determining off -site improvements to be
constructed by proponents of Development in each MUNICIPALITY,
the MUNICIPALITY will consider identifiable impacts on the
COUNTY's road system resulting from such Development on the
same basis as impacts to the MUNICIPALITY's road system.
6. DEVELOPMENT FEES. As part of the
establish a schedule of development fees to
Urban Growth Area. The parties will
development fees to the extent feasible.

be assessed in both the

execution of this Agreement each party will promptly enact and

Sections 4, 5 and 6 above. Each party shall have sole and
exclusive discretion to determine such measures and any new ones as
will enable it to perform this Agreement. Each party's land use
regulations as referred to herein are ordinances or resolutions

specific performance or enforcement of this Agreement in a
court of competent jurisdiction, but no such party shall have
