BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS WELD COUNT ATTEST: , do Weld County Clerk to the Board Deputy Clerk to the Board AP' IWED AS County .rney Date of signature:1al O tZ`C Kevin D. Ross . James CUSED Lori Saine Ch it 2024-2614 PL0824 TO: Board of County Commissioners FROM: Adria Schiel, Assistant County Attorney DATE: October 2, 2024 SUBJECT: Special Assessment Certifications for Zoning and Building Violations. As you know, we periodically request your certification of certain civil penalties as special assessments to be collected along with property taxes. All these requests are based upon orders issued from the Weld County Court after internal review by the Department of Planning Services and the County Attorney's Office_ In most cases, the property owner admits that there is a violation of the Weld County Code, agrees to pay an initial fine, and agrees to a plan with deadlines to fix the issue. This plan becomes an order of the court. Even after the deadlines pass, staff works with property owners who are making good faith efforts to fix the problem and does not ask the court to enforce the agreement by entering a daily penalty order. If the deadlines pass and no significant progress is made, then the County Attorney asks the court for a hearing where we prove that the violation still exists, and the property owner hasn't done what they agreed to do. In other cases, the daily penalty was ordered after the County proved the violation to the court at trial, or the property owner refused to engage with the court process and a default judgement was issued. Once the property owner fixes the problem and has paid the initial fine, Planning Services closes the violation, and the County Attorney files a motion with the court to waive any penalties not certified to the Treasurer and dismiss the case. Per Weld County Code section 23-10-40(A), any penalties not paid within 30 days may be certified to the County Treasurer as a special assessment.

Upon information and belief, the zoning violation still exists on your property. At a public hearing on October 2, 2024, at 9:00 a.m., the Weld County Board of County Commissioners will determine whether to certify the continuing daily penalties against your property which have continued to accrue.

The hearing will address the penalties for the period October 9, 2023, up to and including September 2, 2024. This period totals 330 days for a total of $8,250.00. Please note that the daily penalty will continue to accrue until the property is brought into compliance with the Weld County Code. The total request at the hearing will be $8,250.00.
