Section 24.4.2.1 --That the proposal is consistent with the Weld County Comprehensive Plan. A.Goal 2 in the Comprehensive Plan allows for commercial and industrial uses which are directly related to or dependent upon agriculture to locate within Agricultural zoning when the impact to surrounding properties is minimal, and where adequate services and infrastructure are available. The proposed use is primarily to manufacture and assemble agricultural implements and to repair and sell farm machinery. This use has minimal impacts on surrounding properties.

Section 24.4.2.2 --That the proposal is consistent with the intent of the district in which the use is located. Section 31.4.2 of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance provides for Agricultural Service establishments, including farm equipment sales, repair, and installation facilities. The proposal is consistent with the intent of the A (Agricultural) Zone District, as this establishment will serve the surrounding Agricultural community. c. Section 24.4.2.3--That the uses which would be permitted will be compatible with the existing surrounding land uses. Surrounding land uses include residential uses and vacant agricultural land. The Conditions of Approval and Development Standards ensure the impacts to surrounding properties are minimal. d. Section 24.4.2.4 --That the uses which would be permitted will be compatible with future development of the surrounding area as permitted by the existing zoning and with the future development as projected by the Comprehensive Plan or Master Plans of affected municipalities. This proposal is located within the referral area of the Towns of Ault and Pierce; however, it is not within the Urban Growth Boundary of either town. Both towns responded with no conflicts with their interests. e. Section 24.4.2.5-The proposal is not located within the Overlay District Areas identified by maps officially adopted by Weld County. f. Section 24.4.2.6--That if the use is proposed to be located in the A (Agricultural) Zone District, the applicant has demonstrated a diligent effort has been made to conserve prime agricultural land in the locational decision for the proposed use. The site in which this use is proposed is 1.73 acres and has been historically used as an onion storage facility and has not been farmed. g. Section 24.4.2.7-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 the health, safety and welfare of the inhabitants of the neighborhood and county.
