Approved with Conditions The Department of Planning Services has determined through the review, that the standards of Section 11.4.2.1 through 11.4.2.6 of the Weld County Subdivision Ordinance have been met. This Recorded Exemption is approved with the following conditions in accordance with information submitted in the application and the policies of the County. 1. A Weld County septic permit is required for any proposed home. The septic system shall be installed according to the Weld County Individual Sewage Disposal System (I.S.D.S.) regulations. 2. Prior to recording the plat: A. The applicant shall utilize the existing residential access to this parcel as no additional accesses shall be granted. (Lot B) B. The applicant shall utilize the existing agricultural, oil and gas, and ditch roads that are necessary for your agricultural operation. No additional accesses shall be granted. C. WCR 24 is designated on the Transportation Plan Map as a collector status road, which requires 80 feet gq 'a$(o of right-of-way at full build out. There is presently 60 feet of right-of-way. A total of 40 feet from the centerline of Weld County Road 24 right-of-way reservation for future expansion of Weld County Road 24 shall be delineated on the plat. This road is maintained by Weld County. D. The applicant shall attempt to address the requirements of the Mountain View Fire Protection District as stated in a referral response received July 21 1999. E. The following notes shall be placed on the plat: 1) All proposed or existing structures will or do meet the minimum setback and offset requirements for the zone district in which the property is located. Pursuant to the definition of SETBACK in the Weld County Zoning Ordinance(Ordinance 89, as amended), the required setback is measured from the future right-of-way line. 2) Any future structures or uses on site must obtain the appropriate zoning and building permits. 3) Staff supports this application for Recorded Exemption however subsequent Recorded Exemptions on adjacent properties will raise the issue of compliance with the intent of the Recorded Exemption process. Approval of this Recorded Exemption does not guarantee approval of future applications on adjacent properties. 4) RIGHT TO FARM COVENANT Weld County is one of the most productive agricultural counties in the United States. The rural areas of Weld County may be open and spacious, but they are intensively used for agriculture. Persons moving into a rural area must recognize there are drawbacks, including conflicts with longstanding agricultural practices and a lower level of services than in town. Agricultural users of the land should not be expected to change their long-established agricultural practices to accommodate the intrusions of urban users into a rural area. Well run agricultural activities will generate off-site impacts, including noise from tractors and equipment; dust from animal pens, field work, harvest, and gravel roads; odor from animal confinement, silage, and manure; smoke from ditch burning; flies and mosquitoes; the use of pesticides and fertilizers in the fields, including the use of aerial spraying. Ditches and reservoirs cannot simply be moved out of the way of residential development without threatening the efficient delivery of irrigation to fields which is essential to farm production. Weld County covers a land area of over 4,000 square miles in size (twice the State of Delaware) with more than 3,700 miles of state and county roads outside of municipalities. The sheer magnitude of the area to be served stretches available resources. Law enforcement is based on responses to complaints more than on patrols of the county and the distances which must be traveled may delay all emergency responses, including law enforcement, ambulance, and fire. Fire protection is usually provided by volunteers who must leave their jobs and families to respond to emergencies. County gravel roads, no matter how often they are bladed,will not provide the same kind of surface expected from a paved road. Snow removal priorities mean that roads from subdivisions to arterials may not be cleared for several days after a major snowstorm. Snow removal for roads within subdivisions are of the lowest priority for public works or may be the private responsibility of the homeowners. Services in rural areas, in many cases, will not be equivalent to municipal services. Children are exposed to different hazards in the county than in an urban or suburban setting. Farm equipment and oil field equipment, ponds and irrigation ditches, electrical power for pumps and center pivot operations, high speed traffic, sand burs, puncture vines, territorial farm dogs, and livestock present real threats to children. Controlling children's activities is important, not only for their safety, but also for the protection of the farmer's livelihood. 5) Prior to the release of building permits on Lot A or Amended Lot B, the applicant will be required to submit a recorded deed describing the lot upon which the building permit is requested with the building permit application. The legal description on such deed shall include the lot and recorded exemption number. 6) Should noxious weeds exist on the property or become established as a result of the proposed development, the applicant/landowner shall be responsible for controlling the noxious weeds, pursuant to Ordinance 169A. 3, The applicant shall submit a mylar plat to the Department of Planning Services to be recorded in the office of the Weld County Clerk and Recorder. The plat shall be prepared in accordance with the requirements of Section 11.7 of the Weld County Subdivision Ordinance. The plat shall be submitted within sixty (60) days from the date of approval by the Department of Planning Services. The applicant shall be responsible for paying the recording fees. 4. Planning Staffs approval of this recorded exemption is based upon satisfying the above conditions. Should an applicant be unwilling or unable to meet any one of these conditions, within 60 days of approval, then this case will be forwarded to the Board of County Commissioners with a recommendation for denial.

Dear Mr. Ogle: This letter is to notify you in writing concerning the status of satisfying the conditions of approval for RE-2540. The applicant has contracted a surveyor and based on his time frame will soon have a plat for recording but may not make the 60-day limit based on condition of approval four. This letter is a request for an extension so that the applicant's surveyor may finish the survey work and produce a plat for recording. Condition of approval 2D states that the applicant shall attempt to address the Mountain View Fire Protection District referral. The referral is based on the assumption that new construction will occur on one of the amended lots. The referral does not apply to this application due to the fact that both lots have an existing residential structure. I hope that this letter has addressed any questions concerning the conditions of approval for RE- 2540. If you have any questions, I may be reached at the number or address below. Sin'cer/e/G,• Todd.

An elk herd is located on the NW/4 of the property and a few head of horses are located on amended Lot B. Approximately 3/e of the property is designated as "irrigated — not prime" and approximately /a is designated "other" by the Important Farmlands of Weld County map. 4. The reason for the proposed recorded exemption with an explanation how each lot will be used. The purpose of this application is to amend out the portions of the property that are not required to be included as pan of the original recorded exemption.

The property named is within the boundaries of the Mountain View Fire Protection District and receives service from the District. The Fire District does not object to the recorded exemption, but does have the following comments and requirements if any new residences are constructed: • All construction shall be in accordance with the provisions of the 1994 Edition of the Uniform Fire Code, as ratified by the Weld County Commissioners, and all other codes and ordinances, as enforced by Weld County. • Water supply for fire protection may be required for a new residence. In instances when a request is for a recorded exemption and not a subdivision, water supply for fire protection is not required for a single family residence that is not larger than 3,600 gross square feet and is placed on at least a 2.5 acre site. If a residence exceeds 3,600 square feet or is placed on less than 2.5 acres,water supply for fire protection requirements apply. • When water supply for fire protection is required, a minimum fire flow of 1,000 gallons of water per minute, measured at a residual pressure of 20 pounds per square inch (p.s.i.), is required for one- and two-family dwellings not exceeding 3,600 gross square. All other buildings (including larger one- and two-family dwellings) require a minimum fire flow of 1,500 gallons of water per minute, measured at a residual pressure of 20 pounds per square inch(p.s.i.)and may require more depending on the building size and type of construction as per Appendix III-A of the Uniform Fire Code. Water supply must be provided by hydrants located within 650 feet of the residence as measured along the fire apparatus access road and around the exterior of the residence. If the required fire flow is not available, the installation of a residential fire sprinkler system will be accepted as an alternative to meeting the required fire flow. • If a residential fire sprinkler system is proposed, the plans for the fire sprinkler system must be submitted to the Fire District for review and approval prior to installation. At least two copies of plans must be submitted for review. Submittals must include specifications on all devices to be installed and the State plans registration form.

Fire apparatus roads shall be extended so fire apparatus may reach to within 150 feet of all portions of the building. Apparatus access roads shall be a minimum of 20 feet in width and be designed and maintained to support the imposed loads of fire apparatus (60,000 pounds). When residential sprinkler systems are installed, the minimum required road width is reduced to 14 feet. Roads must have a surface that provides all-weather driving capabilities. Roads in excess of 150 feet in length must be provided with approved provisions for the turning around of fire apparatus. The minimum turning radii for all turns shall be thirty-five (35) feet inside turning radius and forty-eight(48) feet outside turning radius. • Approved address numbers shall be placed on the residence in such a position to be plainly visible and legible from the street fronting the property. Address numbers or letters shall contrast with their background. • A final site plan for the residence must be provided to the Fire District for review and approval prior to the issuance of any building permit in order to assure compliance with the above requirements.
