Section 24.4.2.2 -- This proposal is consistent with the intent of the A (Agricultural) Zone District. According to Section 31.1 of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance, "The A 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." Section 31.3.18 of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance states that "Any use permitted as a use by right, an accessory use, or a use by special review in the Commercial or Industrial zone districts provided the property is not a lot in an approved or recorded subdivision plat or lots part of a map or plan filed prior to adoption of any regulations controlling subdivisions." This application is for a Masonry Construction business to be located in the Agricultural Zone District. The nature of the business is to store equipment and vehicles for off-site work. c. Section 24.4.2.3 -- The proposal will be compatible with future development of the surrounding area. The surrounding uses include several acreage residential developments, an airport residential development and crop production. The Conditions of Approval and Development Standards ensure that the proposed use will remain compatible with surrounding land uses. In a letter dated November 27, 1996, Department of Planning Services staff indicated to the applicant that this business requires the approval of a Special Review Permit by the County. It is further stated that the use is considered a Home Business which is defined as "An incidental use to the principal use for gainful employment of the family residing on the property, where such use is conducted primarily within a dwelling unit or accessory structure and principally carried on by the family resident therein..." The site is in the Agricultural Zone and is eligible for a Use by Special Review for a Home Business. d. Section 24.4.2.4 -- 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 Town of Erie did respond that the proposed development is not consistent with the Town's long range plans. The Conditions of Approval and Development Standards ensure that the proposed use will remain compatible with surrounding land uses. It is designated as agricultural land by Weld County and is used as rural residential with a Home Business. 992198 PL1326 SPECIAL REVIEW PERMIT#1239 - T. KEVIN MACURDY PAGE 3 e.

Section 24.4.2.6 -- The applicant has demonstrated a diligent effort to conserve productive agricultural land. The property is recognized on USDA maps as Prime Farmland. Although this designation has been made, the parcel size of 2.97 acres and subdivision of land into 38 parcels within the western half of this section does not provide for efficient agricultural practice. g. Section 24.4.2.7 -- The Design Standards (Section 24.5 of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance), Operation Standards (Section 24.6 of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance), Conditions of Approval, and Development Standards ensure that there are adequate provisions for the protection of the health, safety, and welfare of the inhabitants of the neighborhood and County.
