L Maxwell Nader, Planner Patrick and Sheryl Maroney 19619 County Road 25.5 Platteville, CO 80651 February 23,2025 Weld County Planning Services PO Box 758 1402 N. 17th Ave Greeley, CO 80632 Attn: Maxwell Nader Case No. USR25-0002 EXHIBIT AAC/2at1-dUar 2 We are Patrick and Sheryl Maroney and we reside at 19619 County Road 25.5. We live directly across from the Sweet Valley Reservoir Project. We have resided at this address for over 35 years and have enjoyed the calm and beautiful surroundings of country living with little to no traffic on country road 25'/2 of which dead ends into county road 36. We have enjoyed many beautiful green corn fields in the Summer and a picturesque Fall and Winter with livestock grazing on the corn stocks for over these 35 years. Absolutely beautiful!!! We now have a new neighbor, Sweet Valley Reservoir Project. In the past year, we have seen the harsh reality of gravel mining with fields torn up, weeds, unsightly dirt piles, bags of bentonite, massive equipment, pipes, mud, dust and noise. We are concerned that without some regulations, our beautiful country living will be destroyed, and our property values will decrease. As home and landowners, we are concerned about the noise level, hours of operation, dust levels, traffic and the unsightly appearance of the mining site and would like the planning committee to address these concerns as follows: 1. Limit the mining operations and trucking activity to5days aweek and hours of operation from 7amto5pm Monday through Friday. 2. Require Sweet Valley Reservoir Project to implement and manage a dust mitigation plan with accountability for violations. 3. Limit truck activity on county road 40 to trucks per hour for the safety of the residence that travel these roads, farmers and travelers on highway 60. 4. Hold Sweet Valley Reservoir Project accountable to develop and implement attractive and well -maintained landscaping that will hide the mining activity, manage weeds and mitigate the negative effect on the surrounding property values. 5. Enforce noise levels by requiring the lowest decimal alerts and mitigate noise pollution from loaders, trucks and activity from the mining operations. Thank you for hearing our concerns and requests. We ask you to consider how you would feel if a gravel mining operation moved into your neighborhood. What regulations would you want enforced and how would you preserve your lifestyle and property values of your forever home. Sincerely, s di/taxi /7a401V Hello
