DOCKET NO. 96-39
RE: MAJOR SUBDIVISION (BUFFALO RIDGE ESTATES) PRELIMINARY PLAN - JOHN T.
AND JAMES I. MARTIN
A public hearing was conducted on September 4, 1996, at 10:00 a.m., with the following present:
Commissioner Barbara J. Kirkmeyer, Chair
Commissioner George E. Baxter, Pro-Tem
Commissioner Dale K. Hall
Commissioner Constance L. Harbert
Commissioner W. H. Webster
Also present:
Acting Clerk to the Board, Shelly Miller
Assistant County Attorney, Lee Morrison
Planning Department representative, Gloria Dunn
The following business was transacted:
I hereby certify that pursuant to a notice dated August 14, 1996, and duly published August 22,
1996, in the North Weld Herald, a public hearing was conducted to consider the request of John T.
and James I. Martin for a Major Subdivision Preliminary Plan. Lee Morrison, Assistant County
Attorney, made this a matter of record. Gloria Dunn, Planning Department representative,
presented a brief summary of the proposal and noted the plats have been revised to include all
utility easements. She explained this Preliminary Plan is the third of four steps and has been
reviewed in accordance with the revised Subdivision Ordinance. Ms. Dunn further explained the
195-acre site will consist of 52, 3-acre residential lots to be developed in 7 phases; Tract A is for
open space, and Tract B is an easement for maintenance of the Speer Canal. Ms. Dunn also
reviewed the irrigation, fire protection, and water and sewer proposals and clarified the public
access will be from Weld County Roads 35 and 10. She stated a road maintenance agreement
is required prior to final approval of the plan and staff recommends paving of the internal streets.
Ms. Dunn also noted horseback riding is proposed and recommended an improvement plan and
equestrian trails/easements be included. She then entered the favorable recommendation of the
Planning Commission into the record as written, and noted staff received two letters of opposition;
however, staff feels the Conditions of Approval will provide adequate protection. Ms. Dunn stated
Condition of Approval#1.a. has been met by the applicants; therefore, it should be deleted and the
remaining conditions adjusted accordingly. John Martin, applicant, stated the original plan was to
build and maintain dirt roads; however, since staff recommends paving, he stated the cost of the
lots will increase. He asked if the paved streets could be turned over to the County for
maintenance. Responding to the Board, Ms. Dunn explained the road maintenance agreement
concerns upgrading the external roads and the subdivision agreement concerns internal roads.

PAGE 2
Don Carroll, Public Works Department, explained the applicant will be requested to build the roads
to Weld County standards, then they will be reinspected after one year with the applicant to make
any necessary repairs before Weld County accepts maintenance. Mr. Carroll and Ms. Dunn
confirmed Road 35 is not yet developed into the subdivision and Road 10 stops at Speer Canal.
Mr. Martin stated he understands Roads 10 and 35 will be paved with the County's participation.
Mr. Carroll suggested Mr. Martin work with Drew Scheltinga, Engineer for Public Works
Department, regarding that issue. After further discussion concerning the roads and access, Mr.
Martin confirmed agreement with the Conditions of Approval. No public testimony was offered
concerning this matter. Ms. Dunn recommended the open-space lot be developed in a certain
manner for maintenance of the ground. She suggested a development plan for improvements to
the lot and equestrian trails/easements be provided for Tract A, which is to be developed in Phase
One. Commissioner Harbert suggested the covenants include the requirement of maintenance on
said tract. Ms. Dunn clarified the proposal should include the arena, fencing, and a safe access
if used for horse riding and referenced Condition of Approval #2.m., which includes questions to
be answered. She further stated an area where horse riding occurs may be difficult to maintain and
keep soil from blowing. After further discussion, Commissioner Harbert moved to approve the
request of John T. and James I. Martin for a Major Subdivision Preliminary Plan, based on and
including the recommendations of the Planning staff and the Planning Commission, with the
Conditions of Approval as entered into the record. The motion was seconded by Commissioner
Baxter, and it carried unanimously.
This Certification was approved on the 9th day of September, 1996.
