Dear Mr. Patton:
I have reviewed the covenants pertaining to the Thomas Lakes P.U.D. (Case Number: Z-521).
When I reviewed the covenants, I missed Section XVII which referred to the requirements of the
Fire District and the requirement that all homes be provided with automatic fire sprinkler
systems. The issue is considered resolved and the District has no objection to the proposed
zoning change.
We appreciate being involved in the planning process. Should you have any questions, please
contact me at(303) 772-0710.
Sincerely, /

CFROM: Trevor Jiricek, W.C. Health Departme ,
CASE NO.: Z-521 NAME: William Harper
COLORADO
The Weld County Health Department has reviewed this proposal. It appears that the applicant has
adequately addressed all of our Department's questions and concerns that were outlined during the
sketch plan stage. As you recall, our questions and concerns were described in a memo addressed to
you dated November 20, 1999.
The application has satisfied PUD Ordinance No. 197 in regard to water and sewer service. Water
will be provided by the Little Thompson Water District and sewer will be provided by an on-site
sewage treatment plant. The sewer treatment plant is permitted by the Colorado Department of
Public Health and Environment (Permit No. COG-582017).
The application also appears to adequately address all potential environmental impacts as required in
6.3.1 of the PUD Ordinance.
During field observation of the site, our staff observed that in the vicinity of the proposed
development there were numerous small acreage homes in the vicinity of the site. Many of these
homes have livestock that include but may not be limited to cows and horses. It is our opinion that
any future property owner should be made aware that these agricultural uses exist and that they may
be exposed to noise, dust, flies, odors, etc. in excess of the common urban experience. As a result,
we recommend that the "Right to Farm" covenant be required to be placed on any recorded plat.
In addition to the above, we recommend that the following conditions be part of any approval:
1) The Homeowners Association shall be responsible for the upkeep and maintenance of the sewage
treatment plant, including controlling any odors that may emanate from the plant. The
Association shall also assure that all conditions of the plants Discharge Permit (Colorado
Discharge Permit System No. COG-582017) are met and complied with.
2) Any resident of the property forfeits their right to complain to the Colorado Department of Public
Health and Environment or the Weld County Health Department concerning any odors that may
emanate from the on-site sewage treatment plant or lagoon. Any issues concerning odors from
the plant or lagoon should be directed to the Homeowners Association.
3) The development shall obtain water service from the Little Thompson Water District.
4) The property is subject to Regulation No. 2 of the Colorado Air Pollution Control Regulations
pertaining to odor.

SITE REVIEW MEMO
TO: Ben Patton
Weld County Planning Department
FROM: Longmont Soil Conservation District
Longmont, CO
SUBJECT: William Harper change of zoning, Z-521 . They wish to
change the zoning from ag with a nursing home to zoned for an
apartment complex and 4 estate lots . This is the old nursing
home on WCR 32 and west of WCR 13 . There are ten acres on the
site on which they will convert the nursing home to 18
apartments, 4 approximately 1 acre lots and 2 acres of open
space . We had done a previous review of this property back in
November with no comments .
Prime Farmland: The site has not been used for agriculture for
over 25 years and their is no irrigation water on the site . The
(82) wiley-colby soils are prime if irrigated.
Water Quality: Our concern with water quality relates to the fact
that on the four, 1 acre lots that the covenants say that they
can keep 1 horse or cow or 2 sheep. This could potentially lead
to runoff problems into Thomas Lake . The size of houses called
for makes for the largest area for an animal to be about 0. 8
acres . With the feed and manure production from each of these
lots and the drainage to the lake there could be a potential of a
large amount of animal waste moving directly into the lake from a
heavy rainstorm.
Noxious Weed Control: The area disturbed for road and house
building will need to be reseeded to prevent invasion by noxious
weeds . If livestock are grazed the landowners need to be
diligent in controlling weeds on their pastures .
Soils Limitations: Both soils have moderate limitations for
buildings, because of depth of rock and shrink-swell potential .
Other Concerns : There is a great potential for erosion on these
small lots if animals are allowed on the site. These lane
animals could very quickly turn parts of the 4 lots into all TIT
CONSERVATION - DEVELOPMENT - SELF-GOVERNMENT
lots . Once these lots are denuded then the chances for adverse
impacts of by wind and water erosion are greatly increased. The
other problem that goes with this is the disposal of the animal
waste from these lots . We would recommend removing from the
covenants the provision for 1 large animal per lot .
Summary Comments: The biggest concern we have is with the impact
of having large animals on the 1 acre lots . This poses potential
water quality problems and soil erosion problems . We would
recommend that the 1 animal provision be removed from the
covenants
Thank you for the opportunity to comment .

RE: William Harper Thomas Lake Estate/R-4 RECEIVED
Dear Ben:
Thank you for referring the William Harper Thomas Lake Estate/R-4 to the School District. The projected student
impact upon the St. Vrain Valley School District of 4 new single-family lots and 18 multiple family units on 10 acres
is a total of 7 students. Any students living in this subdivision would attend Mead Elementary School, Mead
Middle School, and Skyline High School under the present school boundaries. However, due to potential growth
in these schools this development and other existing developments in this feeder could be placed in another
attendance area in the future. Bus transportation would be required.

The District is on record as not opposing growth so long as the growth is planned and is manageable from a
student enrollment stand point. While this development does not impact the middle and senior high schools
capacity, the elementary is already over capacity. In addition, there are other approved developments in these
attendance areas which will, together with this proposal, have a significant cumulative impact on these schools.
As the volume of developments increases in the Mead Elementary area with no alleviation of the existing
overcrowded conditions, the ability to provide the same quality education for these new students that is provided
students in other areas becomes increasingly difficult. Therefore, the District would typically oppose this
development because it adds to the enrollment of an already overcrowded school. However, the District has had
conversations with Mr. Harper about a cash-in-lieu agreement and has forwarded an agreement for signature.
This agreement would include the calculation of an appropriate cash in-lieu of land dedication fee to address the
capacity concerns at these schools (per the attached chart). Once this agreement has been signed the District
would not oppose this proposal. Please let me know if you have any further questions.
Sincerely,
ma:

Dear Mr. Harper
We have reviewed your request for proposed zoning change. The following items should be
noted on the blueprints at the time building permits are applied for.
1. Provide two complete blueprints including engineered foundations for each separate
residential lot.
2. Provide two sets of blueprints for the apartment house. Floor plans should include details of
the one-Hour- Fire Resistive construction of the walls and floors separating dwelling units. Floor
plans may require corridors to be of One-Hour- Fire Resistive construction. The existing fire
alarm system if required may be adequate.
When the blueprints are reviewed there, may be additional requirements. Please call or write our
office if you have any questions.
