I have had livestock on the property the entire time that I have resided here. We have animals located on the East 20th Street side of the property so that the kids that walk to school can stop and pet them. Over the years we have had a consistent number of people that specifically come by with their kids or grandchildren for the sole purpose of feeding the animals snacks and spending quality time with their family enjoying the animals. We use our horses to do professional sorting and penning across the country. We have an indoor arena that was built in 2020, that is used as a training and conditioning facility for the horses. There are people from time to time that come over and work on their horses in the arena. We do not charge friends, family members, or guests to ride in the arena. We have the Girl Scouts out once a year to teach them horse safety and animal care. This also allows them to complete the required training to earn their prized merit badge. The dogs on the property are rescue support from when I went through Covid and spent 31 days in the hospital. The horses are off site around 10 days a month for shows. We have a small, irrigated hay field that is on the south side of the property. We have continuous steel fencing, pasture/wire fence, and chain link all around the property along with automatic gates. There are multiple out buildings that are used to store hay and farm equipment. All of the out buildings have security lighting and security cameras. I consistently help all the neighbors, putting emphasis on helping elderly neighbors in my area with snow removal, mowing, grading driveways, and general maintenance. With the school being next to us, I keep adjoining sidewalks cleaned off as best I can and ensure the road in front of my property is clear and safe. CHANGE OF ZONE QUESTIONNAIRE 1. Change use from R-1 to AG 2. Currently is used as a small farm area and has always been used that way to my knowledge. 3. Have a through paved road to the north and west of the property with residences across the paved roads, residence to the south is approximately 100 yards from my residence, an elementary school directly to the east of the property. (See attached letters) 4. We expect the zoning change to allow us the way of life we have been accustomed to up till now, I don't believe anything will change with the area as we have plenty of fencing and ditch barriers in place. 5. Most of the surrounding properties operate as small ag properties currently. 6. No information currently on soil conditions. 7. We believe that this meets what the plan requires. 8. The property already has been compatible with surrounding development (such as the new elementary school) and has been complimentary. Other than that, I am buffered by small ag properties and are not big enough for commercial or residential development. The largest piece of ground is to the west and south across the paved road, and I don't believe that would have any impact on me, nor me on them. 9. The property has been in existence and used as this for more than 20 years, I do not believe there are any negative health, safety and welfare elements to the surrounding community. 10. This should have no effect on this property. Bella ACADEMY of Applied Technology October 4, 2023 To Whom It May Concern: K-3 CAMPUS 614 East 20th Street Greeley, Colorado 80631 970-348-1400 4-8 CAMPUS 1400 East 20th Street Greeley, Colorado 80631 910-348-2500 Principal: Ashley Aragon K-3 Assistant Principal: Kim Clark K-3 Assistant Principal: Judith Morales 4-8 Assistant Principal: Jessica Kiel 4-8 Assistant Principal: Paula Kurabinski I am writing to express my strong support for our neighbor, Shawn Elliott, who keeps animals on his property adjacent to our school. I believe that having these animals nearby offers numerous benefits to our school and our students. First and foremost, having animals near the school provides our students with a unique and educational experience. Interacting with animals can be a source of wonder and joy for young minds. It offers them an opportunity to learn about different species, their habits, and their needs, fostering a sense of curiosity and respect for nature. Furthermore, spending time around animals has been shown to have positive effects on children's emotional and psychological well-being. It can reduce stress and anxiety, improve mood, and even enhance empathy and social skills. In an era where children are often glued to screens, having access to animals encourages them to spend time outdoors and engage in physical activities. It promotes a healthier lifestyle and a deeper connection with the natural world. In addition to the educational and emotional benefits, our neighbor's animals also contribute to the aesthetic appeal of our school surroundings. A well -maintained and attractive environment can create a positive atmosphere for both students and staff. It instills a sense of pride in our school and fosters a sense of community. Moreover, our neighbor, Shawn Elliott, has been a responsible and considerate neighbor, ensuring that the animals are properly cared for and their enclosures well -maintained. This demonstrates a commitment to the welfare of the animals and the community as a whole. I appreciate your attention to this matter and your dedication to providing the best possible educational environment for our students. Thank you for considering my perspective, and I look forward to seeing the continued positive impact that our neighbor's animals have on our school community. Sincerely, Lv Ashley Aragon October 3,2023 To Whom it May Concern: I am writing to give support for Shawn Elliott in his wish to return his property to agricultural. I have been a next-door neighbor to Shawn and his family since they moved into their current home. Their love and care for their animals is admirable, and their sense of community clear. This is a neighborhood built around animals, neighborly communication and friendship. Shawn and his family are very much a part of who we are. The property is well cared for. The animals that he has are well cared for, loved, and bring a sense of joy to many. School children and walkers by love the animals, stop to take pictures and smile with their antics. Their presence is gift. I am lucky enough to live right across the street where I can be part of all that is offered there. My pony loves the donkeys and horses! Shawn and his family are wonderful neighbors, they are always here to help and share in conversation. I certainly hope for the best in the allowance for agricultural. Dr. Shirley Smithson 1224 East 20th Street Greeley, Colorado 970-353-1708 Anastasiya Makogon Address Line 1 Address Line 2 Contact Number September 27, 2023 Subject: Elliott Shawn To Whom it may concern, I am a contributing member of the community as a Girl Scout Leader of Greeley Troop 76000. Girl Scouts of Colorado is a non-profit group that teaches girls how to become active leaders in their community as they learn to solve real-time problems. As part as the Girl Scout program, my troop learn new skills and talents, one of which allowed us to visit Mr. Elliott's ranch. Our first field trip to Mr. Elliott's ranch earned us a special horse patch. This patch was special because Mr. Elliott made our learning experience special. His passion for his horse was evident as he patiently taught the scouts numerous caretaking, diet, and riding techniques. Emphasizing the importance of horse safety, such as horse's blind spots and hind spots, each scout brushed, pet, and fed his horse. Afterward, with careful supervision, Mr. Elliott allowed the young girls to ride the gentle horse around the beautiful big barn where he shelters his 1 horse. Despite the cold winter winds, Mr. Elliott took his time and answered every question with importance. After our first visit, we continued to visit Mr. Elliott outside of troop business because the girls loved it so much. Each time we returned; it was just as amazing. I would describe Mr. Elliott as the most loving and caring human beings who takes pride in his horses and property. He is a very welcoming person that holds another level of patience and kindness when it comes to his ranch and helping others. We are humbled within his presence and will, most definitely, continue to bring our girls to his ranch. Mr. Elliott thank you for everything you have done for our troop.
