INTERIM
COORDINATED PLANNING AGREEMENT
This Interim Coordinated Planning Agreement is made and entered into effective as of
, 1996, between the Board of County Commissioners of the County of Weld, State of
Colorado, hereinafter called the "COUNTY," and the Town of Platteville, a Colorado Municipal
corporation, hereinafter called the "TOWN."
RECITALS
A. The COUNTY exercises governmental authority regulating land use, growth and
development in its unincorporated areas, which areas include lands surrounding the TOWN; and
B. The TOWN exercises governmental authority over the same matters within its
municipal boundaries, and annexations, and is able to provide municipal services and facilities for
efficient and desirable urban development; and
C. In Title 29, Article 20, Colorado Revised Statutes, the General Assembly of the State
of Colorado has granted broad authority to local governments to plan for and regulate the
development and use of land within their respective jurisdictions; and
D. In said Title 29, Article 20, Colorado Revised Statutes, the General Assembly has
further authorized and encouraged local governments to cooperate and contract with each other for
the purpose of planning and regulating the development of land by the joint and coordinated exercise
of planning, zoning, subdivisions, building, and related regulatory powers; and
E. Existing and anticipated pressures for growth and development in areas surrounding
the TOWN indicate that the joint and coordinated exercise by the COUNTY and the TOWN of their
respective planning, zoning, subdivision, building and related regulatory powers in such areas will
best promote the objectives stated in this agreement.
NOW THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual promises and undertakings herein
set forth, the parties agree as follows:
1. PURPOSES AND OBJECTIVES. The purpose of this Agreement 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 unincorporated areas surrounding the
TOWN. The objectives of such efforts are to accomplish the type of development in such areas
which best protects the health, safety, prosperity, and general welfare of the inhabitants thereof by
reducing the waste of physical, financial, and human resources which result from either excessive
congestion or excessive scattering of population, and to achieve maximum efficiency and economy
in the process of development.
2. DEFINITIONS. For the purposes of this Agreement the following terms shall be
defined as set forth herein:
2.1 Development. Any land use requiring regulatory approval by elected officials,
except for amended plats, and down-zoning. ' •r•• 8
960318
2.2 Non-Urban Development. Land uses which typically do not require municipal
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.
2.3 Platteville Planning Area. The area located outside of but within three miles
of the TOWN's municipal boundaries.
2.4 Urban Development. Development which is characterized by development
density typical to urbanized areas and requires for its support services such as central water
and sewer systems, road networks, park and recreation facilities and pro-grams, storm
drainage, and other similar services which are typically furnished by municipalities. Urban
Development does not include residential areas being planned for individual lots or parcels
whose net acreage meets or exceeds two and one-half(2%) acres.
2.5 The Urban Growth Area is hereby established and shall consist of all lands
in Sections 7, 18, 19 (except that portion of Section 19 west of the east bank of the South
Platte River) and the N% of Section 30 (except that portion of the N% of Section 30 in the
intermediate regional floodplain as shown on the Weld County Flood Hazard Overlay District
Zoning maps, Panel 0802660860C), in Township 3 North, Range 66 West of the 6th P.M.,
and Sections 12, 13, and 24 (except that portion of Section 24 west of the east bank of the
South Platte River); in Township 3 North, Range 67 West of the 6th P.M., all in Weld County,
Colorado, EXCEPTING those lands located within the TOWN's municipal boundaries.
3. DEVELOPMENT OF PLATTEVILLE AREA LAND USE PLAN.
3.1 Promptly upon the execution of this Agreement the parties will begin good
faith negotiations to develop a comprehensive development plan authorized by Section
29-20-105 C.R.S. and herein called the "Plan." Such Plan will govern all land use decisions
in the Platteville Planning Area and will contain inter alia (i) specific land use standards for
the Urban Growth Area as defined in 2.5 above, (H) procedures for COUNTY coordination
with the TOWN in its review and approval process for proposed Development in the
Platteville Planning Area, and (iii) procedures and guidelines relating to the annexation of
lands within the Platteville Planning Area, all for the achievement of the purposes stated in
Section 1 above.
3.2 It is anticipated that land use regulations applicable to the Urban Growth Area
will include without limitation regulations addressing the phasing of development, zoning and
subdivision regulations, environmental and landscaping controls, development impact fees,
specifications for the design and construction of public improvements, and requirements
regarding the extension of streets, storm drainage and TOWN water and sewer utility
systems.
3.3 The parties intend to develop the Plan in sufficient time for its adoption by
both of them not later than September 1, 1996. Concurrently with such adoption, the parties
will amend their respective land use and other regulations in such particulars as will
authorize and enable each of them to achieve the purposes, intent, and effect of the Plan,
and to administer and enforce the same within their respective jurisdictions.
4. INTERIM PLANNING COORDINATION. This Agreement is intended to be an interim
Comprehensive Development Plan adopted and implemented pursuant to C.R.S. § 29-20-105(2).
Following the execution of this Agreement by both parties, COUNTY Development approvals in the
Platteville Planning Area will be processed and determined in accordance with the following:
4.1 Referral. The COUNTY will refer all proposals for Development to the TOWN
for its review and recommendation. Such referral will include at least a copy of the written
Development proposal and preliminary COUNTY staff summary of the case. The COUNTY
will allow not less than twenty-one (21) days for the TOWN to review same and furnish its
recommendations to COUNTY staff prior to formulation of the COUNTY staff
recommendation. If the TOWN does not respond within such time, COUNTY staff may
proceed with its recommendation, but any TOWN comments or recommendation received
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 the TOWN submits no comment or recommendation the COUNTY
may assume it has no objection to the proposal. If the TOWN submits recommendations,
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 TOWN by a separate writing.
4.2 Development Outside Urban Growth Area. To the extent legally possible
the COUNTY will disapprove proposals for Urban Development in areas of the Platteville
• Planning Area outside the Urban Growth Area. In reviewing proposals for Non-Urban
Development in such areas, the COUNTY will apply its Comprehensive Plan and zoning and
subdivision ordinances. This section shall not require disapproval of a recorded exemption
solely because the smaller parcel is less than two and one-half(2'A) acres in size.
4.3 Development in Urban Growth Area. The following shall apply to proposed
Development in the Urban Growth Area:
(a) Upon receipt of any proposal for Development of property then
currently eligible for voluntary annexation to the TOWN, the COUNTY will, in writing,
notify the proponent of the opportunity for annexation and notify the TOWN of the
proposal.
(b) An essential purpose of this Agreement is to ensure that Urban
Development occur only within Town limits or in areas which will be annexed to the
Town in the near future. Therefore, as a condition of approval of any rezoning, use
by special review for commercial or industrial uses pursuant to § 31.4.18 of the Weld
County Zoning Ordinance#89, as amended or renumbered (Exhibit "A"), planned unit
development, or subdivision, the COUNTY will require a binding annexation
agreement between the applicant and the TOWN which requires the owners to annex
the property to the TOWN upon the terms and conditions stated in the Agreement.
No such agreement shall be required in the case of a recorded exemption or
subdivision exemption or a use by special review for oil and gas wells.
(c) The TOWN will extend its sanitary sewer service to property in the
Urban Growth Area, subject to its rules and regulations, which 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 assessed in
accordance with the TOWN'S rules and regulations. TOWN agrees to give notice of
any proposed change in said rules and regulations to COUNTY 21 days prior to
adoption.
01318
960318
3 ORD187
(d) The TOWN provides municipal water service to property within its
boundaries, subject to its rules and regulations, which contain provisions similar to
those indicated above for sewer service. Water furnished by the TOWN is received
from Central Weld County Water District ("Central Weld") under a Water Service
Agreement dated April 14, 1994. All TOWN service is subject to the said contract
which, inter aria, prohibits the TOWN from serving outside its boundaries or outside
the boundaries of the Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District. Water service
is currently available directly from Central Weld in portions of the Urban Growth Area,
subject to Central Weld's rules and regulations. Contemporaneously with the
development of the Plan, the TOWN will negotiate in good faith with Central Weld to
explore ways in which the extension of water service outside TOWN boundaries,
particularly in areas not presently included in Central Weld, can be coordinated so
as to achieve the purposes stated in Section 1 above while still recognizing the rights
and obligations of Central Weld and its constituents.
(e) In recognition of the availability of public water and sewer service
within the Urban Growth Area as indicated in paragraphs (c) and (d) above, the
COUNTY will require public water and sewer service as a condition of approval of
any subdivision, rezoning or planned unit development and will not approve such
Development until the applicant obtains a written contract for same with the TOWN,
or water service from Central Weld if the TOWN cannot provide water. This
Agreement shall be prima fade evidence of the availability of municipal water and
sewer service within the meaning of§32-1-203(2.5)(a), C.R.S.
(f) The COUNTY will not grant any waiver of current TOWN street
standards for any Development without the consent of the TOWN.
(g) To the extent legally possible, as determined by the COUNTY, 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 recorded exemption or subdivision exemption, the isolated
partition or division of ownership parcels located in the Urban Growth Area having
existing residential improvements served by septic systems, regardless of the size
of resulting lots. Nevertheless, the COUNTY will not permit such a concentration of
such divisions in any particular area as will frustrate or materially hinder the evolution
of genuine Urban Development, as defined in § 2.4 of this Agreement, in the Urban
Growth Area.
(h) If any TOWN recommendation of disapproval of a Development
proposal is based upon a conflict or incompatibility between proposed uses in the
Development and anticipated TOWN zoning classification for the property, the
COUNTY will not approve same unless the applicant demonstrates (i) that no such
conflict or incompatibility will reasonably 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) that the TOWN'S
anticipated zoning classification of the property is unreasonable because of existing
or planned uses of adjacent property. The TOWN 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¶4.3 (f)-(h)will be addressed in more detail
when the Plan is adopted.
•
4.4 Mutuality of Impact Consideration. In considering proposals for
Development near or adjacent to the TOWN's boundaries, the party having jurisdiction will
consider the impacts of the Development upon property subject to the jurisdiction of the other
party on the same basis as it would consider those impacts upon property subject to its
jurisdiction in determining compatibility with existing and planned land uses in the vicinity of
the proposal.
4.5 Referrals to County. The TOWN will refer proposals for Development which
lie 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. The TOWN will allow not less than twenty-one (21) days for the
COUNTY to review same and furnish its recommendations to TOWN. If the COUNTY
submits no comment or recommendation the TOWN may assume it has no objection to the
proposal. If the COUNTY submits recommendations, the TOWN 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 TOWN with the Notice and impact statement provisions of the most current version
of the Municipal Annexation Act then in effect. 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 existing or anticipated zoning classification for the property, the TOWN will
not approve same unless the applicant demonstrates (i) that no such conflict or
incompatibility will reasonably occur, (ii) that suitable mitigation measures to be imposed by
the TOWN as conditions of approval will eliminate or adequately mitigate adverse
consequences of incompatibility or conflict, or (iii) that the TOWN's anticipated 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 TOWN will consider such issues.
5. ANNEXATION.
5.1 The TOWN will give serious consideration to all petitions for annexation of
lands within the 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 existing users of such services or upon the future
residents or owners of property in the area itself; (ii)the area is not reasonably contiguous
in fact to the TOWN's existing boundaries, and its annexation would result in disconnected
municipal satellites.
5.2 The TOWN will not annex properties located outside the Urban Growth Area
unless such property is both eligible for annexation and is desired by the TOWN for municipal
purposes.
5.3 To the extent legally possible the TOWN will annex the full width of each
COUNTY road right of way adjacent to newly annexed property unless such road serves
primarily COUNTY properties rather than existing or newly annexed TOWN properties, in
which case the TOWN will annex none of such COUNTY road right of way.
960318
5 ORD187
5.4 Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, the TOWN is not
obligated to annex any property within a Development approved by the County after the
execution of this Agreement by both parties which does not conform to the County Urban
Growth Standards, unless a waiver or modification of such standards was granted by the
COUNTY and approved by the TOWN.
5.5 Nothing in this Section 5 shall be construed to limit the TOWN from annexing
any land within the Urban Growth Area, regardless whether such annexations are involuntary
or result in disconnected municipal satellites.
5.6 In determining off-site improvements to be constructed by proponents of
in-TOWN Development, the TOWN will consider identifiable impacts on the COUNTY road
system resulting from such Development on the same basis as in-TOWN impacts.
6. DEVELOPMENT FEES. As part of any plan, the parties will establish a schedule of
development fees to be assessed both in those portions of the Platteville Planning Area which it is
expected will be annexed to the TOWN and those areas thereof which will remain within the
COUNTY. The parties will avoid duplication of development fees to be assessed to property within
the Urban Growth Area.
7. IMPLEMENTATION OF AGREEMENT. Following the mutual execution of this
Agreement each party will promptly enact and implement such amendments to its existing land use
or annexation regulations as may be necessary to give effect to the provisions of Sections 4, 5 and
6 above. Each party shall have sole and exclusive discretion to determine such measures and any
new ones enabling it to perform this Agreement. Each party's land use regulations as referred to
herein are ordinances whose amendment requires certain formalities, including notice and public
hearings. The mutual covenants in this section and elsewhere to implement this Agreement
promptly are given and received with mutual recognition and understanding of the legislative
processes involved, and such covenants will be liberally construed in light thereof.
8. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.
8.1 Severability. Should any one or more sections or paragraphs of this
Agreement be judicially determined invalid or unenforceable, such judgment shall not affect,
impair or invalidate the remaining provisions of this Agreement, the intention being that the
various sections and paragraphs are severable.
8.2 Enforcement. Either party may seek specific performance or enforcement
of this Agreement in a Court of competent jurisdiction, but neither party shall have any claim
or remedy for damages arising from an alleged breach hereof against the other, nor shall this
agreement confer on either part standing to contest a land use decision or action of the other
except as a breach of this agreement. This agreement is not intended to modify the standing
the parties may possess independent of this agreement. This Agreement is between the
TOWN and the COUNTY and no third party rights or beneficiaries exist or are created
hereby.
8.3 Termination. This Agreement will continue in effect until the Plan is
developed and implemented by both parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, either
party may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice thereof to the other.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement effective as of the date
first above written.

29-20-105 C.R.S. and herein called the "Plan." Such Plan will govern all land use decisions
in the Platteville Planning Area and will contain inter alia (i) specific land use standards for
the Urban Growth Area as defined in 2.5 above, (ii) procedures for COUNTY coordination
with the TOWN in its review and approval process for proposed Development in the
Platteville Planning Area, and (iii) procedures and guidelines relating to the annexation of
lands within the Platteville Planning Area, all for the achievement of the purposes stated in
Section 1 above.
3.2 It is anticipated that land use regulations applicable to the Urban Growth
Area will include without limitation regulations addressing the phasing of development,
zoning and subdivision regulations, environmental and landscaping controls, development
impact fees, specifications for the design and construction of public improvements, and
requirements regarding the extension of streets, storm drainage and TOWN water and
sewer utility systems.
3.3 The parties intend to develop the Plan in sufficient time for its adoption by
both of them not later than June 30, 1996. Concurrently with such adoption, the parties will
amend their respective land use and other regulations in such particulars as will authorize

•
and enable each of them to achieve the purposes, intent, and effect of the Plan, and to
administer and enforce the same within their respective jurisdictions.
4. INTERIM PLANNING COORDINATION. This Agreement is intended to be an
interim Comprehensive Development Plan adopted and implemented pursuant to C.R.S. § 29-20-
105(2). Following the execution of this Agreement by both parties, COUNTY Development
approvals in the Platteville Planning Area will be processed and determined in accordance with the
following:
4.1 Referral. The COUNTY will refer all proposals for Development to the
TOWN for its review and recommendation. Such referral will include at least a copy of the
written Development proposal and preliminary COUNTY staff summary of the case. The
COUNTY will allow not less than twenty-one (21) days for the TOWN to review same and
furnish its recommendations to COUNTY staff prior to formulation of the COUNTY staff
recommendation. If the TOWN does not respond within such time, COUNTY staff may
proceed with its recommendation, but any TOWN comments or recommendation received
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 the TOWN submits no comment or
recommendation the COUNTY may assume it has no objection to the proposal. If the
TOWN submits recommendations, 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 TOWN
by a separate writing.
4.2 Development Outside Urban Growth Area. To the extent legally possible
the COUNTY will disapprove proposals for Urban Development in areas of the Platteville
Planning Area outside the Urban Growth Area. In reviewing proposals for Non-Urban
Development in such areas, the COUNTY will apply its Comprehensive Plan and zoning
and subdivision ordinances.
4.3 Development in Urban Growth Area. The following shall apply to
proposed Development in the Urban Growth Area:
(a) Upon receipt of any proposal for Development of property then
currently eligible for voluntary annexation to the TOWN, the COUNTY will, in writing,
notify the proponent of the opportunity for annexation and notify the TOWN of the
proposal.
(b) An essential purpose of this Agreement is to ensure that Urban
Development occur only within Town limits or in areas which will be annexed to the
Town in the near future. Therefore, as a condition of approval of any rezoning, use
by special review for commercial or industrial uses pursuant to § 31.4.18 of the
Weld County Zoning Ordinance #89, as amended or renumbered (Exhibit "A"),
planned unit development, or subdivision, the COUNTY will require a binding
annexation agreement between the applicant and the TOWN which requires the
owners to annex the property to the TOWN upon the terms and conditions stated
in the Agreement. No such agreement shall be required in the case of a recorded
1-16-96 w/proposed O&G change- 3 960318 ORD187
exemption or subdivision exemption or a use by special review for oil and gas
wells which may be rcquircd pursuant to § 4.4 of this Agrccmcnt.
(c) The TOWN will extend its sanitary sewer service to property in the
Urban Growth Area, subject to its rules and regulations, which 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 assessed in
accordance with the TOWN'S rules and regulations. TOWN agrees to give notice
of any proposed change in said rules and regulations to COUNTY 21 days prior to
adoption.
(d) The TOWN provides municipal water service to property within its
boundaries, subject to its rules and regulations, which contain provisions similar to
those indicated abovekr sewer service. Water furnished by the TOWN is received
from Central Weld County Water District ("Central Weld") under a Water Service
Agreement dated April 14, 1994. All TOWN service is subject to the said contract
which, inter alia, prohibits the TOWN from serving outside its boundaries or outside
the boundaries of the Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District. Water
service is currently available directly from Central Weld in portions of the Urban
Growth Area, subject to Central Weld's rules and regulations. Contemporaneously
with the development of the Plan, the TOWN will negotiate in good faith with Central
Weld to explore ways in which the extension of water service outside TOWN
boundaries, particularly in areas not presently included in Central Weld, can be
coordinated so as to achieve the purposes stated in Section 1 above while still
recognizing the rights and obligations of Central Weld and its constituents.
(e) In recognition of the availability of public water and sewer service
within the Urban Growth Area as indicated in paragraphs (c) and (d) above, the
COUNTY will require public water and sewer service as a condition of approval of
any subdivision, rezoning or planned unit development and will not approve such
Development until the applicant obtains a written contract for same with the TOWN,
or water service from Central Weld if the TOWN cannot provide water. This
Agreement shall be prima facie evidence of the availability of municipal water and
sewer service within the meaning of§32-1-203(2.5)(a), C.R.S.
(f) The COUNTY will not grant any waiver of current TOWN street
standards for any Development without the consent of the TOWN.
(g) To the extent legally possible, as determined by the COUNTY, 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 recorded exemption or subdivision exemption, the
isolated partition or division of ownership parcels located in the Urban Growth Area
having existing residential improvements served by septic systems, regardless of
the size of resulting lots. Nevertheless, the COUNTY will not permit such a
concentration of such divisions in any particular area as will frustrate or materially
1-16-96 w/proposed O&G change- 4 960318 ORD187
hinder the evolution of genuine Urban Development, as defined in § 2.4 of this
Agreement, in the Urban Growth Area.
(h) If any TOWN recommendation of disapproval of a Development
proposal is based upon a conflict or incompatibility between proposed uses in the
Development and anticipated TOWN zoning classification for the property, the
COUNTY will not approve same unless the applicant demonstrates (i) that no such
conflict or incompatibility will reasonably 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) that
the TOWN'S anticipated zoning classification of the property is unreasonable
because of existing or planned uses of adjacent property. The TOWN 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 ¶4.3 (f)-(h) will be addressed in more
detail when the Plan is adopted.
44 (j) Oil & Gas Overlay Zone. Certain areas within the Urban Growth Area
described below arc deemed by the TOWN as the most likely areas for residential
Urban Growth Area as an overlay zone in which a use by special review-is-required
( i )The County and Town agree that, pursuant to the refs I-provisions of this
Agreement, the County will refer to the Town any oil and gas drilling application
which it receives pursuant to the Oil and Gas.Commission's ("OGCC") local
government designee notification process for drillsites;proposedto.be located within
the Urban Growth Area. Upon a timely request from the Town to the County, the
County will arrange for an onsite consultation,to include the Town's representative,
with the oil and gas applicant pursuant to OGCC Rule 802(c).
•
•
•
(ii) Notice of proposed surface DEVELOPMENT within the UGA overlay zone shall
be provided lessees and owners of oil and gas interests so that surface
DEVELOPMENT can be planned and designed to consider current and future oil
and gas drilling activity to the extent oil and gas development can be anticipated
under current State regulations.
( iii) No portion of this Agreement shall.be construed:to create.a=requirement of
"regulatory approval " (as used in § 2.1 of this Agreement) of{oihand.ge"fillino
1-16-96 w/proposed O&G change- 5 960318 ORD187
activities by either the Town:or.Courtty,where no such requirement currently exists
irt County,or:Town:ordinancescnortshall this Agreementbe interpreted to obligate
Town or County to require regulatory approval.
4.54 Mutuality of Impact Consideration. In considering proposals for
Development near or adjacent to the TOWN's boundaries, the party having jurisdiction will
consider the impacts of the Development upon property subject to the jurisdiction of the
other party on the same basis as it would consider those impacts upon property subject to
its jurisdiction in determining compatibility with existing and planned land uses in the vicinity
of the proposal.
4.65 Referrals to County. The TOWN will refer proposals for Development
which lie 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. The TOWN will allow not less than twenty-one (21) days for the
COUNTY to review same and furnish its recommendations to TOWN. If the COUNTY
submits no comment or recommendation the TOWN may assume it has no objection to the
proposal. If the COUNTY submits recommendations, the TOWN 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 TOWN with the Notice and impact statement provisions of the most
current version of the Municipal Annexation Act then in effect. 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 existing or anticipated zoning classification for the
property, the TOWN will not approve same unless the applicant demonstrates (i) that no
such conflict or incompatibility will reasonably occur, (ii) that suitable mitigation measures
to be imposed by the TOWN as conditions of approval will eliminate or adequately mitigate
adverse consequences of incompatibility or conflict, or (iii) that the TOWN's anticipated
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 TOWN will consider such issues.
5. ANNEXATION.
5.1 The TOWN will give serious consideration to all petitions for annexation of
lands within the 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 existing users of such services or upon the future
residents or owners of property in the area itself; (ii) the area is not reasonably contiguous
in fact to the TOWN's existing boundaries, and its annexation would result in disconnected
municipal satellites.
5.2 The TOWN will not annex properties located outside the Urban Growth Area
unless such property is both eligible for annexation and is desired by the TOWN for
municipal purposes.
960318
1-16-96 w/proposed O&G change- 6 ORD187
5.3 To the extent legally possible the TOWN will annex the full width of each
COUNTY road right of way adjacent to newly annexed property unless such road serves
primarily COUNTY properties rather than existing or newly annexed TOWN properties, in
which case the TOWN will annex none of such COUNTY road right of way.
5.4 Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, the TOWN is not
obligated to annex any property within a Development approved by the County after the
execution of this Agreement by both parties which does not conform to the County Urban
Growth Standards, unless a waiver or modification of such standards was granted by the
COUNTY and approved by the TOWN.
5.5 Nothing in this Section 5 shall be construed to limit the TOWN from annexing
any land within the Urban Growth Area, regardless whether such annexations are
involuntary or result in disconnected municipal satellites.
5.6 In determining off-site improvements to be constructed by proponents of
in-TOWN Development, the TOWN will consider identifiable impacts on the COUNTY road
system resulting from such Development on the same basis as in-TOWN impacts.
6. DEVELOPMENT FEES. As part of any plan, the parties will establish a schedule
of development fees to be assessed both in those portions of the Platteville Planning Area which
it is expected will be annexed to the TOWN and those areas thereof which will remain within the
COUNTY. The parties will avoid duplication of development fees to be assessed to property within
the Urban Growth Area.
7. IMPLEMENTATION OF AGREEMENT. Following the mutual execution of this
Agreement each party will promptly enact and implement such amendments to its existing land use
or annexation regulations as may be necessary to give effect to the provisions of Sections 4, 5 and
6 above. Each party shall have sole and exclusive discretion to determine such measures and any
new ones enabling it to perform this Agreement. Each party's land use regulations as referred to
herein are ordinances whose amendment requires certain formalities, including notice and public
hearings. The mutual covenants in this section and elsewhere to implement this Agreement
promptly are given and received with mutual recognition and understanding of the legislative
processes involved, and such covenants will be liberally construed in light thereof.
8. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.
8.1 Severability. Should any one or more sections or paragraphs of this
Agreement be judicially determined invalid or unenforceable, such judgment shall not affect,
impair or invalidate the remaining provisions of this Agreement, the intention being that the
various sections and paragraphs are severable.
8.2 Enforcement. Either party may seek specific performance or enforcement
of this Agreement in a Court of competent jurisdiction, but neither party shall have any claim
or remedy for damages arising from an alleged breach hereof against the other, nor shall
this agreement confer on either part standing to contest a land use decision or action of the
other except as a breach of this agreement. This agreement is not intended to modify the
standing the parties may possess independent of this agreement. This Agreement is
960318
1-16-96..w/proposed O&G change- 7 ORD187
between the TOWN and the COUNTY and no third party rights or beneficiaries exist or are
created hereby.
8.3 Termination. This Agreement will continue in effect until the Plan is
developed and implemented by both parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however,
either party may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice thereof to the other.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF,the parties have executed this Agreement effective as of the date
first above written.

(c) The TOWN will extend its sanitary sewer service to property in the
Urban Growth Area, subject to its rules and regulations, which 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 assessed in

contract which, inter alia, prohibits the TOWN from serving outside its boundaries
or outside the boundaries of the Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District.
Water service is currently available directly from Central Weld in portions of the
Urban Growth Area, subject to Central Weld's rules and regulations.
Contemporaneously with the development of the Plan, the TOWN will negotiate in
good faith with Central Weld to explore ways in which the extension of water
service outside TOWN boundaries, particularly in areas not presently included in
Central Weld, can be coordinated so as to achieve the purposes stated in Section
1 above while still recognizing the rights and obligations of Central Weld and its
constituents.

and sewer service within the meaning of§32-1-203(2.5)(a), C.R.S.
(f) The COUNTY will not grant any waiver of current TOWN street
standards for any Development without the consent of the TOWN.
(g) To the extent legally possible, as determined by the COUNTY, 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 recorded exemption or subdivision exemption, the
isolated partition or division of ownership parcels located in the Urban Growth
Area having existing residential improvements served by septic systems,
regardless of the size of resulting lots. Nevertheless, the COUNTY will not permit
such a concentration of such divisions in any particular area as will frustrate or
materially hinder the evolution of genuine Urban Development, as defined in §
2.4 of this Agreement, in the Urban Growth Area.

4.54 Mutuality of Impact Consideration. In considering proposals for
Development near or adjacent to the TOWN's boundaries, the party having jurisdiction
will consider the impacts of the Development upon property subject to the jurisdiction of
the other party on the same basis as it would consider those impacts upon property
subject to its jurisdiction in determining compatibility with existing and planned land uses
in the vicinity of the proposal.
4.65 Referrals to County. The TOWN will refer proposals for Development
which lie 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. The TOWN will allow not less than twenty-one (21) days
for the COUNTY to review same and furnish its recommendations to TOWN. If the
COUNTY submits no comment or recommendation the TOWN may assume it has no
objection to the proposal. If the COUNTY submits recommendations, the TOWN 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 TOWN with the Notice and impact statement
provisions of the most current version of the Municipal Annexation Act then in effect. 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 existing or anticipated zoning
classification for the property, the TOWN will not approve same unless the applicant
demonstrates (i) that no such conflict or incompatibility will reasonably occur, (ii) that
suitable mitigation measures to be imposed by the TOWN as conditions of approval will
eliminate or adequately mitigate adverse consequences of incompatibility or conflict, or
(iii) that the TOWN's anticipated 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
TOWN will consider such issues.
5. ANNEXATION.
5.1 The TOWN will give serious consideration to all petitions for annexation of
lands within the 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 existing users of such services or upon the
future residents or owners of property in the area itself; (ii) the area is not reasonably
contiguous in fact to the TOWN's existing boundaries, and its annexation would result in
disconnected municipal satellites.
5.2 The TOWN will not annex properties located outside the Urban Growth
Area unless such property is both eligible for annexation and is desired by the TOWN for
municipal purposes.
5.3 To the extent legally possible the TOWN will annex the full width of each
COUNTY road right of way adjacent to newly annexed property unless such road serves
primarily COUNTY properties rather than existing or newly annexed TOWN properties, in
which case the TOWN will annex none of such COUNTY road right of way.
60318
cwo,v9e i4VPOOPOSE0 Ptarr wu E esnxcat 6 ORD187
5.4 Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, the TOWN is not
obligated to annex any property within a Development approved by the County after the
execution of this Agreement by both parties which does not conform to the County Urban
Growth Standards, unless a waiver or modification of such standards was granted by the
COUNTY and approved by the TOWN.
5.5 Nothing in this Section 5 shall be construed to limit the TOWN from
annexing any land within the Urban Growth Area, regardless whether such annexations
are involuntary or result in disconnected municipal satellites.
5.6 In determining off-site improvements to be constructed by proponents of
in-TOWN Development, the TOWN will consider identifiable impacts on the COUNTY
road system resulting from such Development on the same basis as in-TOWN impacts.
6. DEVELOPMENT FEES. As part of any plan, the parties will establish a schedule
of development fees to be assessed both in those portions of the Platteville Planning Area which
it is expected will be annexed to the TOWN and those areas thereof which will remain within the
COUNTY. The parties will avoid duplication of development fees to be assessed to property
within the Urban Growth Area.
7. IMPLEMENTATION OF AGREEMENT. Following the mutual execution of this
Agreement each party will promptly enact and implement such amendments to its existing land
use or annexation regulations as may be necessary to give effect to the provisions of Sections 4,
5 and 6 above. Each party shall have sole and exclusive discretion to determine such measures
and any new ones enabling it to perform this Agreement. Each party's land use regulations as
referred to herein are ordinances whose amendment requires certain formalities, including notice
and public hearings. The mutual covenants in this section and elsewhere to implement this
Agreement promptly are given and received with mutual recognition and understanding of the
legislative processes involved, and such covenants will be liberally construed in light thereof.
8. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.
8.1 Severability. Should any one or more sections or paragraphs of this
Agreement be judicially determined invalid or unenforceable, such judgment shall not
affect, impair or invalidate the remaining provisions of this Agreement, the intention being
that the various sections and paragraphs are severable.
8.2 Enforcement. Either party may seek specific performance or enforcement
of this Agreement in a Court of competent jurisdiction, but neither party shall have any
claim or remedy for damages arising from an alleged breach hereof against the other, nor
shall this agreement confer on either part standing to contest a land use decision or
action of the other except as a breach of this agreement. This agreement is not intended
to modify the standing the parties may possess independent of this agreement. This
Agreement is between the TOWN and the COUNTY and no third party rights or
beneficiaries exist or are created hereby.
8.3 Termination. This Agreement will continue in effect until the Plan is
developed and implemented by both parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however,
either party may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice thereof to the other.

From: Monica Daniels-Mika, AICP, Director, Department of Planning
Services 7vuto v _--
Subject: Town of Platteville Intergovernmental Agreement
On November 13, 1995, the Board of County Commissioners held a public meeting to consider an
Intergovernmental Agreement with the Town of Platteville. Two additional public hearings are
currently scheduled for November 27, 1995, and December 11, 1995, at 9:00 a.m. in the
Commissioners' Hearing Room, Centennial Center, 915 10th Street, Greeley, Colorado. Your
property is located in the proposed Urban Growth Boundary area and as such could be influenced
by this Intergovernmental Agreement. An Intergovernmental Agreement is intended 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 unincorporated areas surrounding the town. The objectives of such efforts are
to accomplish the type of development in such areas which best protects the health,
safety, prosperity, and general welfare of the inhabitants thereof by reducing the waste
of physical, financial, and human resources which result from either excessive
congestion or excessive scattering of population, and to achieve maximum efficiency
and economy in the process of development.
A copy of this agreement is enclosed for your review. Your input into this progress is greatly needed.
Should you be unable to attend these public meetings written and verbal comments and specific
hearing dates can be addressed to the Department of Planning Services, in care of Monica Daniels-
Mika, or by phone at (970) 353-6100, Ext. 3540. I look forward to hearing from you.

MEMO
To: Board of County Commissioners
From: Lee D. Morrison
Subject: Platteville IGA
Date: November 13. 1995
The proposed IGA has several key concepts:
1. The IGA has three areas outside of the municipality (see map) to consider:
a. The Urban Growth Area which is based on ability to provide sewer and
anticipated growth ( § 2.5);
b. A larger area, the Platteville Planning Area(PPA), which is the three miles
around the Town ( § 2.3); and
c. The Oil and Gas Overlay ( § 4.4)
2. Once passed, the IGA is enforceable as a Comprehensive Development Plan under the
authorizing legislation but also contemplates a joint planning process which will result in
a Plan for the PPA and implementing changes in County and Town Ordinances.( § 3, §
7)
3. Referrals will continue to the Town for the PPA as before except that the County agrees
to spell out its reasons for a decision contrary to the recommendation of the Town. The
final decision is still the County' s.( § 4)
a. Inside the UGA the County will encourage annexations by advising the applicant
or obtaining an agreement to annex. This does not apply to RE's, or USR's
except a USR which substitutes for a zone change. ( § 4.3)
i. The Town will normally provide water and sewer to this area.( § 4.3 c &
d)
ii. The County would deny non-urban development inside the UGA but this
provision would not affect the ability of owners of existing residential uses
on septic to seek an RE. ( § 4.3 g)
b. Outside UGA but inside PPA, County will deny urban-development but only if
such denial is supported by County Ordinances and the law.
4. The Town will also give referrals to the County for development w/in 500 feet of the
County and will have to consider the impact on unannexed property and County roads ( §
5.6 ,§ 4.5 and 4.6)
5. The Town will annex only within UGA except for municipal purposes. ( § 5.2). The
UGA area is anticipated to be annexed.
6. Enforcement would be by equitable actions in Court
7. Oil and Gas activities in the Overlay Zone would require a USR in the same manner as in
R-I zone district in the County. The application would not trigger the need for an
annexation agreements.
