Applicant
The owners of the following described property have requested
an exemption from Section 2-1 of the Weld County Subdivision
regulations adopted September 1972 which defines the term
subdivision :
The South one-half (51/4) of Section 8 , Township 8N ,
Range 65 W of the 6th P . M. , containing 320 acres
more or less .
The Planning Department has reviewed this request and recom-
mends that the request be approved for the following
reasons :
DOES DOES NOT
X Require water
Require sewer
X
X Create traffic problems
X Fall in flood plain
X Agree with Planning Commission Policy
X Create housing
X Agree with surrounding land use
X Meet all known requirements
Comments :
The applicants wish to retain 10 acres which includes their •
residence and other improvements and sell 470 acres , of which
320 acres are contiguous to the 10 acret homesite . The 470
acres will be sold to one person and will remain in agricultural
use . In my opinion , there is little justification to require
the applicants to submit an application for a Recorded Exemp-
tion for the reasons listed above , and I recommend that their
application for exception from subdivision be approved .

Gentlemen' COUNTY CLERx AND RECORDER i
BY Deputy
I am the present owner of 480 acres of irrigated land in
Section 8 and Section 17, all in Township 8 North, Range
65 West of the 6th P.M. , in Wield County, Colorado. My home
and improvements are situated on the Southwest Quarter of
the Southwest Quarter of the Southeast Quarter (SW 1/4 SW
1/4 SE 1/4) of Section 8 , Township 8 North , Range 65 blest of
the 6th P.M.
My parents moved on that place in 1908 and that has been the
home of my parents and my home ever since. We presently have
a septic tank and leach field which has worked satisfactorily
for the past 25 years without any difficulty or trouble of
any kind. We have two domestic wells on the property that
have produced water for our domestic needs and our cattle
operation ever since my family moved on the property. One
well was a dug well which was dug very shortly after my
family moved on this ::lace in 1908 ; the other is a drilled
well which was drilled about 30 years ago. T,pproximately
10 acres are used .for our residence, farm buildings and cor-
rals , and we would at this time propose to sell the rest of
our irrigated land, in the amount of some 470 acres , and
.reserve and retain the 10 acres , being our residence and
improvements , and continue in the future to run a fey; cattle
on 32.0 acres of pasture which we will still retain and own
on the East Half of Section 13 , Township 8 North, Range 66
West of the 6th P.M.
The 470 acres is being sold to one person and I presume will
be used as an irrigated farm in the future as he is buying
all of the water with the land.
I am presently 75 years of age; my wife is 70 years of age,
and we are both retired, or semi-retired, and it is our wish
to continue to make our residence on our old home place, run
a few cattle on our pasture land and have corrals and improve-
ments tc keep them in when they are off the pasture land.
They tell me that if I wish to retain less than 30 acres of
my property, it is necessary that I have a special permit
authorizing me to do this. Under the circumstances , as a

County Comnissioners of Weld County May 10, 1973
longtime citizen and resident of Weld County, Colorado, and one
who would like to spend his last da s on the farm on which he
was raised, I hereby respectfullgcke44xemption from. Section 2-1
of the weld County Subdivision Regulations adopted in September
of 1972, not for the purpose of erecting any further residential
huildings or improvements but solely for the purpose of permit-
ting !ate to make a sale of my irrigated far* land which Iy now am
unable to take care of myself , and at the same time retain my
home and live where I would like to live. We will have no pro-
blems with requirements for water of any kind as we have two
good domestic wells . No traffic problem will be created.
Our septic tank and leach field has been operating satisfactorily
for 25 years and I see no reason why it should not continue to
operate satisfactorily in the future, our rroperty is not in a
flood plain. A special exemption will not create any additional
housing. It will not change any of the surrounding land use and
it will not bother or interfere with any person. Inasmuch as the
sale of our irrigated farm. is due to be closed at about the middle
of May, it is requested that you take as prompt action as possible
on this request.
If you would like me to answer any questions or give you any fur-
ther information, I will be very happy to cooperate with you in
any way I can in order to inform you of all the facts concerning
this matter to enable you to make an informed decision.
I trust the wishes of a longtime resident of Weld County will
be given some consideration in your decision, to permit me and
my wife to continue_ to live on our family homestead after all
these years.
Yours very truly,
