CONSIDER RE #1769 - BAY: Gloria Dunn, Planning Department, reviewed staffs summary and entered staffs recommendation for denial into the record. She reviewed the numerous recorded and subdivision exemptions existing in the area and answered questions from the Board concerning the surrounding residences. Marvin Bay, applicant, stated proposed Lot A is a difficult section to irrigate and explained he sold improvements on Lot A of RE #370 to finance a sprinkler. He later added, through the recorded exemption process, two lots to his farm which allowed the sprinkler to be more efficient. Mr. Bay noted proposed Lot A cannot be and has never been farmed, and he wants to give the six -acre parcel to Habitat for Humanity. He explained he worked with FmHA and Planning about four years ago to split the property; however, FmHA allows only one acre to be gifted. Mr. Bay stated he has been working with Habitat, who will build and finance a home on said property, which will be given to a family of ten living in a two -bedroom home in East Eaton, Colorado. Regarding staffs recommendation for denial, Mr. Bay clarified the property will not be converted from agricultural land to residential since the new home owner has an existing agricultural repair shop on the property. Responding to questions from the Board, Mr. Bay confirmed proposed Lot B will continue to be farmed with no changes, and a Special Review Permit for the repair service will be applied for if this recorded exemption is approved. He clarified the business will be closed if this request is not approved since the home is to be built for the person operating said business. Ms. Dunn submitted two photographs of the repair business as Exhibits A and B for the record. Floyd Oliver, Habitat for Humanity volunteer, stated he seeks building sites for homes, which are given to Habitat who then builds the home. He explained the people must put in labor and pay a mortgage, reiterating the need for this site which is a weed patch and not farmable. No other public testimony was offered. Ms. Dunn submitted Conditions of Approval to the Board for review, which Mr. Bay stated are acceptable. Commissioner Kirkmeyer moved to approve RE #1769 for Marvin and Mildred Bay, with Conditions of Approval as recommended by staff. She agreed with staff that this proposal is not efficient and orderly development; however, it meets the intent of #7b on Page 27 of the Comprehensive Plan, which allows the owner to sell nonproductive agricultural land for one single- family dwelling. Commissioner Baxter seconded the motion and agreed a lot of the land in that area is unusable for agriculture. Commissioner Webster also agreed the area is nonproductive, and the motion carried unanimously.

Kirk Goble, J L Sears, represented the applicant and explained William Boatright, applicant, lives on Lot A of RE #1032, and his son lives on proposed Lot A of RE #1770; therefore, all homes are existing.

Addressing Public Works' concerns, Mr. Goble also reiterated all four accesses are existing, with one being a utility/farm access, two residential accesses, and the other being to proposed Lot B for farm purposes. He noted the area is not a high -traffic area and one of the drives is used for school bus turnaround.
