McCLURE ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE AND NOTICE OF HEARING WHEREAS, it has been made to appear to the Board of County Commissioners, Weld County, State of Colorado, as the County Licens- ing Authority, that you have violated the law in that your waste disposal site facility does not meet the minimum standards as set out by provi- sions of the Solid Waste Disposal Sites and Facilities Act, 1967, Perma- nent Cumulative Supplement to C.

M. , or as soon after as you can be heard to show cause why your said Certificate of Designation to operate a solid waste disposal site should not be suspended or revoked as by law provided.

Dated this 5th day of November, A.D. , 1969. ATTEST: CLERK OF T(FjE BOARD APPItDXED AS BO FORM: / COUNTY ATTO z �' BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF WET-fi) COUNTY, COLORADO /, f." // PL0ll4 690186 PETITION To The Honorable Board of County Commissioners County of Weld State of Colorado The undersigned, owners of land in the North Half (N 1/2) of Section Twenty-eight (28), Township Seven (7) North, Range Sixty-five (65) West of the 6th P.M., Weld County, Colorado, and being residents on said property, do hereby petition the Honorable Board of County Commissioners to rescind, revoke and hold for naught that certain action taken by resolution on April 9, 1969 whereby there was granted to Paul McClure Certificate No. 17 for a solid waste disposal facility or site in the Southeast Quarter (SE 1/4) of Section Twenty-one (21), Township Seven (7) North, Range Sixty-five (65) West of the 6th P.M., Weld County, Colorado directly north of and across the road from the land of petitioners. As grounds for this petition seeking the revocation and cancellation of said Certificate No. 17, petitioners would respectfully show that: 1. Said permit in its entirety violates the zoning plan heretofore adopted by the Board of County Commissioners of Weld County, Colorado and now in full force and effect in that all of said area is zoned as Zone A - Agricultural and that a solid waste disposal facility, or dump, can only be located in Zone I - Industrial. 2. The announced and stated plan of the permitee, Paul McClure, as specified by his employee placed in charge of said purported solid waste disposal facility was that the dump would be covered not to exceed twice weekly. This is in violation of Section 36-23-10(1)(e) CRS 1963 (1967 Suppl.) which requires a daily covering with six inches of earth or similar inert material. 3. In granting the permit there was a failure to comply with Section 36-23-4(1)(a) and (b) CRS 1963 (1967 Suppl.) in that no public hearing was held nor was there any opportunity for the Board of County Commissioners to consider "the effect that the site or facility will have on the surrounding property, taking into consideration the types of processing to be used, surrounding property uses and values, and wind and climatic conditions." In this regard, it should be pointed out that the prevailing winds to blow smoke, odors, loose paper and loose ashes from the pur- ported McClure dump will all blow toward and onto the premises of petitioners, thereby depreciating the value of the property of petitioners, making the maintenance, particularly of the yard and dwelling house, more difficult, and reducing the en- joyment of life which petitioners have heretofore had in their country home. Petitioners would further indicate that no reasonable opportunity was given to petitioners to appear before the Board of County Commissioners in opposition, since the application for the waste disposal site was approved by the Weld County Health Department on April 8, on the same date by the Planning Commission (in violation of its own zoning regulations), and the application was thereafter on April 9 immediately granted by the County Commissioners. WHEREFORE, petitioners respectfully pray that the Board of County Commissioners cancel, rescind, revoke and hold for naught the application heretofore granted on April 9, 1969.
