CASE NUMBER: USR-1168

ADDRESS: 15119 Nancy Avenue
Ft. Lupton, CO 80621
PLANNER: Scott Ballstadt
REQUEST: A Site Specific Development Plan and a Special Review Permit for Oil and Gas

welding incidental to the operation with six employees) in the A (Agricultural) Zone
District.

Colorado.
LOCATION: 482' east of Weld County Road 31 and ' mile south of Weld County Road 18.
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 24.7
of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance, as amended.
2. It is the opinion of the Planning Commission that the applicant has shown compliance with
Section 24.3 of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance, as amended, as follows:
a. Section 24.3.1.1 --This proposal is consistent with the Weld County Comprehensive
Plan. The proposal is for outdoor storage of heavy equipment for J & L Oilfield
Service, employee vehicle parking and the construction of a proposed shop with an
office. Activities within the proposed and existing shops include welding which is
incidental to the operation. The proposal is consistent with Agricultural Goal and
Policy 1 of the Weld County Comprehensive Plan which is intended to preserve prime
farmland for agricultural purposes. This proposal will not remove any prime farmland
from production. Section 31.2.9 of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance establishes
oil and gas production facilities as a Use Allowed by Right in the A District. This
necessitates that support and service activities required by this Use by Right be
allowed to locate appropriately.

b. Section 24.3.1.2 -- This proposal is consistent with the intent of the A (Agricultural)
zone district. The Agricultural Zone District is intended to provide areas to conduct
agricultural activities without the interference of other, incompatible land uses. The
Agricultural Zone District is also intended to provide areas for the conduct of Uses
by Special Review which have been determined to be more intense or to have a
potentially greater impact than Uses Allowed by Right. This proposal is consistent
. with Section 31.4.1 Mineral Resource Development facilities, which includes oil and
gas support and service in the A District of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance, as
amended.
c. Section 24.3.1.3 -- The proposal.will be compatible with future development of the
surrounding area. The surrounding properties are zoned for agricultural uses as well.
d. Section 24.3.1.4--The proposed uses will be compatible with future development of
the surrounding area as permitted by the A (Agricultural) zone district and with the
future development as projected by the Comprehensive Plan or Master Plan of
affected municipalities. The City of Fort Lupton Planning and Zoning Commission
reviewed the request and expressed concerns pertaining to compatibility with
residential uses. However, the proposed use is provided for as a Use by Special
Review in the Agricultural zone district and would have minimal impacts on
surrounding properties. Since the employees perform most of the work off-site, the
proposed use is not intense and the traffic generated will be minimal.
e. Section 24.3.1.5-- The site is not located within any Overlay District Areas identified
by maps officially adopted by Weld County.
f. Section 24.3.1.6 -- The applicant has demonstrated a diligent effort to conserve
productive agricultural land. The site is not currently being farmed and this proposal
will not remove any farmland from production. Additionally, farming is not feasible
due to the size of the parcel and surrounding parcels.
g. Section 24.3.1.7 --The Design Standards (Section 24.5 of the Weld County Zoning
Ordinance, as amended), Operation Standards (Section 24.6 of the Weld County
Zoning Ordinance, as amended), Conditions of Approval, and Development
Standards ensure that there are adequate provisions for the protection of health,
safety, and welfare of the inhabitants of the neighborhood and county.
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.
