Staff comments made during this phase of the application process may not be all-inclusive, as other issues may arise during the remaining application process. COMMENTS GENERAL PROJECT INFORMATION/LOCATION Project description: A Site Specific Development Plan and Use by Special Review Permit outside of subdivisions and historic townsites for campground (up to three spaces for tiny homes) in the A (Agricultural) Zone District. This project is north of CR 28 and is west of and adjacent to CR 21. Parcel number: 120927400032 & 120927400033. Access is onto CR 21. ACCESS Development Review has reviewed the application materials related to access. The applicant is proposing to use two (2) existing access points onto CR 21. The southern access is an existing, permitted, residential access (AP21-00798) located approximately 625 feet north of County Road 28. The draft USR map indicates this access will provide access to the existing dwelling on Parcel #120927400033 and to the proposed campground and five (5) future parking stalls. This access will need to be upgraded from a residential access to a residential and commercial access. The northern access is an existing, unpermitted, access located approximately 885 feet north of County Road 28. Per the draft USR map this access is a residential access. From the Weld County Property Portal aerial imagery, this access appears to provide access for two (2) residential dwellings (one each on Parcel #120927400032 and Parcel #120927400033), and to the campground's circular driveway and tiny homes parking sites. This access does not meet the 330 -foot minimum access spacing requirement (between it and the southern access) for a collector road as defined in Weld County Code, Section 8-14-30.1. Per Section 8-14-30 of the Weld County Code, an Access Permit is required for access onto Weld County maintained roadways. All "preliminarily approved" accesses are subject to change during the access permitting process. No additional accesses are being proposed. ROADS AND RIGHTS -OF -WAY County Road 21 is a paved road and is designated on the Weld County Functional Classification Map (Code Ordinance 2017-01) as a collector road, which requires 80 feet of right-of-way. Pursuant to the definition of setback in the Weld County Code, Section 23-1-90, the required setback is measured from the right-of-way line. The physical location of CR 52 may not be centered in the right-of-way. This road is maintained by Weld County. Per Chapter 8, Article 13, Section 8-13-30, a Weld County Right -of -Way Use Permit is required for any project that will be occupying, constructing or excavating facilities within, and/or encroaching upon, any County rights -of -way or easements. Right -of -Way Use Permit instructions and application can be found at: https://www.weldgov.com/Government/Departments/Public-Works/Permits Weld County will not replace overlapping easements located within existing right-of-way or pay to relocate existing utilities within the County right-of-way. TRAFFIC The most recent traffic counts (2022) for this portion of CR 21 found the annual average daily traffic to be 595 vehicles per day with 12% trucks. The 85th percentile speed is 60 mph. The traffic information submitted with the application materials indicates that there will be 2-4 passenger vehicles roundtrips per day with tiny homes entering and exiting the site 4-8 times per year. No additional traffic information is needed. TRACKING CONTROL Tracking control is required to prevent tracking from the site onto County Road 21. For access to paved roads, tracking control devices can be double cattle guards with 100 ft. of asphalt or 300 ft of asphalt. Recycled concrete is not allowed in County right-of-way. A variance request for alternatives to the tracking control requirement can be submitted to Development Review for review and consideration. ROAD MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT Development Review is requesting a Road Maintenance Agreement including, but not limited to, dust control and damage repair to specified haul routes. The agreement will detail the approved routes and the maintenance required. An example agreement is available at: https://www.weldgov.com/Government/Departments/Planning-and-Zoning/Development-Review . DRAINAGE REQUIREMENTS This area is within a Non -urbanizing Drainage Area. Non -urbanizing Drainage Areas typically require detention of stormwater runoff from the 1 -hour, 100 -year storm event falling on the developed site and release of the detained water at the historic runoff rate of the 1 -hour, 10 -year storm event falling on the undeveloped site having a 2% impervious value. The applicant has submitted a drainage narrative requesting Exception 12 for consideration. Exception 12 reads, "A parcel greater than one (1) gross acre and less than, or equal to, five (5) gross acres in size is allowed a onetime exception for a new four thousand (4,000) sq. ft. of 100% impervious area or equivalent imperviousness." According to the draft map and application materials, the applicant is proposing to install approximately 1,000 square feet of additional recycled asphalt (or gravel) for five (5) parking stalls on the southern end of the site. As mentioned in the drainage narrative and visible in the Weld County Property Portal 2022 aerial image and the Google 2024 aerial image, the applicant has previously installed approximately 8,000 square feet of recycled asphalt and approximately 570 square feet of Portland Cement Concrete to serve the proposed tiny house campground. This pavement provides an all-weather surface for the tiny house parking sites, the campground's circular driveway/parking area on the north side of the site, and the campground's southern access/driveway. The exhibits below show the foregoing areas of pavement installed for the tiny house campground. Concrete added for campground access_ Recycled asphalt added for campground. Recycled asphalt added for campground and circular driveway. Recycled asphalt added for campground.

Lots A and B, Recorded Exemption RE -2096 Water Division 1, Water District 2 Dear Diana Aungst: We have received your February 5, 2024 submittal concerning the above referenced proposal for a site development plan and use by special review, for a campground for up to three spaces for tiny homes. This referral does not appear to qualify as a "subdivision" as defined in section 30-28-101(10)(a), C.R.S. Therefore, pursuant to the State Engineer's March 4, 2005 and March 11, 2011 memorandums to county planning directors, this office will only perform a cursory review of the referral information and provide informal comments. The comments do not address the adequacy of the water supply plan for this project or the ability of the water supply plan to satisfy any County regulations or requirements. In addition, the comments provided herein cannot be used to guarantee a viable water supply plan or infrastructure, the issuance of a well permit, or physical availability of water. Estimated water demand and proposed uses were not provided. The proposed water supply source for the campground is an existing water tap with Central Weld County Water District (CWCWD). A will serve letter from CWCWD dated October 24, 2023 for the Lot B of Recorded Exemption RE -2096 was included with the submitted material, stating water service was presently available. A review of our records found well permit no. 105036-A located on Lot B of RE -2096. Permit no. 105036-A was issued for the replacement of well permit no. 105036. Well permit no. 105036 was issued on March 19, 1979 for the historical domestic use of the well since April 17, 1937. The domestic use of the well is limited to the historic domestic uses in existence before May 8, 1972 that have continued since that time [provided such uses are no greater than those uses allowed for a well permit pursuant to section 37-92-602(1), C.R.S., which are: fire protection, ordinary household purposes inside not more than three single-family dwellings, the watering of poultry and domestic animals and the irrigation of not more than one acre of home gardens and lawns]. Permit no. 105036-A was issued on the condition that the well under permit no. 105036 is plugged and abandoned. A Well Abandonment Report was not received for well permit no. 105036, therefore, it is unknown if the original well was plugged. To ensure the original well was plugged, the well owner must submit a Well Abandonment Report (Form GWS-09) which can be downloaded at https://dwr.colorado.gov/forms. So long as the use of the well under permit no. 105036 follows the terms and conditions of the permit and is not used for the commercial business, the well can continue to be used for its historical domestic uses. 1313 Sherman Street, Room 821, Denver, CO 80203 P 303.866.3581 www.colorado.gov/water Jared S.

Please note that any cost associated with this would be at the expense of the applicant. • United Power has no concerns or objection to the proposed plans; contingent upon United Power's ability to maintain all existing rights, facilities/equipment, and existing easements. This request should not hinder our ability for future expansion, including all present and any future accommodations for electrical distribution. Please have the property owner/developer/contractor submit an application for new electric service or any modification to existing facilities including relocation and/or removal, along with CAD data via https://www.unitedpower.com/construction. United Power would like to work with these persons early in the construction process on getting an electric design prepared so that we can request any additional easements if needed. As a Reminder: No permanent structures are acceptable within the dry utility easement(s). United Power considers any structure that impedes the access, maintenance, and safety of our facilities a permanent structure. No exceptions will be allowed, and any encroachments could result in penalties. Service will be provided according to the rules, regulations, and policies in effect by United Power at the time service is requested. We would like to remind the developer to call the Utility Notification Center by dialing 811 to have all utilities located prior to construction. We look forward to safely and efficiently providing reliable electric power and outstanding service. Thank you, Emily Fore United Power, Inc.
