be recommended favorably to the Board of County Commissioners for the following reasons:
1. The submitted materials are in compliance with the application requirements of Section 28.5 of the
Weld County Zoning Ordinance, as amended.
2. The submitted materials are in compliance with Section 28.7 of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance
as follows:
A. The proposed change of zone is consistent with the intent of the Weld County
Comprehensive Plan, as amended, including Planned Unit Development, Mixed Use
Development Area, Commercial and Industrial Development Goals and Policies.
1. I.Goal 4 states: "Promote industrial development that is appropriately located in
relation to surrounding land uses, and that meets necessary environment
standards." This proposal for highway commercial (C-4) and light industrial uses
(I-1 and 1-2) is compatible with surrounding land uses. Directly north of the site is
proposed Del Camino East PUD Phase 2 which would allow for commercial and
industrial uses, with residential to the northeast of the site. Other surrounding land
uses include Del Camino Center PUD to the northwest and Flatiron PUD to the
northwest.
The eastern edge of the site lies within the 100 year floodplain as defined by FEMA
mapping. The applicant has designated this portion of the site as open space with
a maximum of 25% being developed. The applicant will need to address common
open space further in the Final PUD Plan submittal.
2. C.Goal 1 states: "Encourage the expansion and diversification of the commercial
economic base." This proposal includes Commercial Highway (C-4) uses which will
provide economic opportunity for county residents as well as aid in diversifying the
county's commercial economic base.

3. C.Goal 3 states: "Ensure that adequate public services and facilities are available
to serve the commercial development or district." The development will be serviced
by the St. Vrain Sanitation District for sewage disposal. Central Weld County Water
District will provide an adequate water supply. The development lies within the
Frederick Fire Protection District and the Mountain View Fire Protection District.
4. MUD.Goal 1 states: "To plan and to manage growth within the 1-25 Mixed Use
development area and Urban Development Nodes so as to balance relevant fiscal,
environmental, aesthetic, and economic components of the area." The applicant has
designed this development to consist of both commercial (C-4) and industrial (I-1,
1-2) uses which is compatible with the surrounding land uses. The development will
be encouraged to utilize innovative siting and design features to enhance prime
visual features such as the Godding Hollow drainage way. The applicant has
submitted a landscaping plan for the development which shows landscaping along
the 1-25 East Frontage Road. All landscaping shall adhere to the landscaping
requirements in proposed Ordinance 191.
B. That the uses which would be allowed in the proposed Planned Unit Development will
conform with the Performance Standards of the Planned Unit Development District contained
in Section 35.5 of this Ordinance.
C. The uses which would be permitted shall be compatible with the existing or future
development of the surrounding area which include agricultural production, rural residences,
commercial and industrial developments. Surrounding zone districts include Del Camino
Center PUD to the northwest, Flatiron PUD to the northwest, Del Camino East Phase II PUD
to the north and agricultural uses to the east. In addition, through the PUD Final Plan and
Site Plan Review processes, design standards (landscaping, parking, signage, etc) will be
adequately evaluated.
D. That adequate water and sewer service will be made available to the site to serve the uses
permitted within the proposed Planned Unit Development District. The development will be
serviced by the St. Vrain Sanitation District for sewage disposal. The Central Weld County
Water District will provide water service.
E. That street or highway facilities providing access to the property are adequate in size to meet
the requirements of the proposed zone district. The applicant will need to address street and
highway facilities which provide access to the development as well as the internal roadway
system in relation to the standards set forth in proposed Ordinance 191. The local road for
the internal roadway system is not, at this time, consistent with the roadway requirements for
a Local Employment/Regional Commercial roadway as displayed in proposed Ordinance
191. The applicant will need to address this discrepancy and submit an off -site road
improvements agreement at the Final PUD Plan submittal.
F. That there has been compliance with the applicable requirements contained in Section
21.5.1.5 of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance as follows:

1. The proposed development lies with the flood hazard overlay district. Conditions of
approval address this issue. This development also lies within the Mixed Use
Development area. The applicant is aware of the update plan, Ordinance 191, to this
area. The applicant may be subject to additional requirements of the plan with its
adoption by the Board of County Commissioners.
2. The proposed development does not contain a commercial mineral deposit in a
manner which would interfere with the present or future extraction of such deposit
by an extractor to any greater extent than under the present zoning of the property.
3. Soil conditions on the site are not such that they present moderate or severe
imitations to the construction of structures or facilities proposed for the site.
This recommendation is based, in part, upon a review of the application materials submitted by the applicant,
other relevant information regarding the request, and responses from referral entities.
The Planning Commission's recommendation for approval is conditional upon the following:
1. The Change of Zone plat map shall be submitted to the Department of Planning Services for
recording within 30 days of approval by the Board of County Commissioners.
2. The applicant shall submit a traffic analysis performed by a qualified engineer at the time of Final PUD
Plan submittal. The traffic analysis shall identify traffic generated by the development as well as the
roadway improvements needed to mitigate the increased traffic. This analysis should reflect the
future arterial proposed in Ordinance 191.
3. Prior to recording the Change of Zone plat:
a. The Change of Zone plat shall meet all requirements of Sections 28.5.2 and 28.5.3 of the
Weld County Zoning Ordinance.

shall comply with the PUD Zone District requirements as set forth in Section 28 of the Weld
