Case Summary:
The applicant is requesting a Site Specific Development Plan and Use by Special Review Permit for a
boarding and training kennel for up to fifteen (15) dogs. (Cowboy K9 Training). The canines would be
housed in indoor/outdoor runs. Indoor outdoor access would be controlled through a guillotine type door,
with the capability to shut the canines inside at night or during the day when necessary. The total number
of canines that would be on site is fifteen (15). The property owner is currently the only employee. The
proposed hours of operation are Monday through Sunday 8am - 6pm. The site would accommodate up to
eight (8) clients at any one time during normal business hours. The applicant has met the requirements for
a PACFA License for the proposed kennel operation.
The current well is not permitted for commercial use, water will be brought in from McDonald Farms to serve
the kennel. Water will be delivered which will be used to control dust as necessary. Washing of indoor
kennels will be done with clean water only, no soaps or detergents are allowed to infiltrate the ground water.
Noise is restricted to the residential limit. The applicants submitted their own noise study which indicates
the facility can meet the residential limit. The applicant has indicated nuisance barking is immediately
addressed.
The property includes an existing single-family dwelling, and a proposed outbuilding will be the future
kennel. This outbuilding will include outdoor runs that will be secured by six (6) foot tall, welded wire kennel
panels. The inside portion would have both A/C and heat to keep dogs cool in summer and warm in winter.
The proposed dog runs would have a dimension of 5'x15' outside and a 4'x4' area inside.
DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING SERVICES' STAFF RECOMMENDS THAT THIS REQUEST BE
APPROVED FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS:
1. The submitted materials are in compliance with the application requirements of Section 23-2-260
of the Weld County Code.
2. It is the opinion of the Department of Planning Services' staff that the applicant has shown
compliance with Section 23-2-220 of the Weld County Code as follows:
A. Section 23-2-220.A.1 -- The proposed use is consistent with Chapter 22 and any other
applicable code provisions or ordinance in effect.
Section 22-2-10.B. states: "Respecting Private Property Rights. One of the basic principles
upon which the United States was founded is the right of citizens to own and utilize property
so long as that use complies with local regulations and does not interfere with or infringe
upon the rights of others."
The request to utilize the residential parcel located on a currently non -agriculturally
productive land for a kennel, as well as on -going residential and personal use, is in line
with this section of the Comprehensive Plan. The property owner's business will comply
with local regulations and does not appear to interfere with or infringe upon the rights of
others.
B. Section 23-2-220.A.2 -- The proposed use is consistent with the intent of the A
(Agricultural) Zone District.
Sec. 23-3-10.-- Intent, of the Weld County Code states. "Agriculture in the County is
considered a valuable resource which must be protected from adverse impacts resulting
from uncontrolled and undirected business, industrial and residential land uses. The A
(Agricultural) Zone District is established to maintain and promote agriculture as an
essential feature of the county. The A (Agricultural) Zone District is intended to provide
areas for the conduct of agricultural activities and activities related to agriculture and
agricultural production, and for areas for natural resource extraction and energy
USR23-0001, Salveson
Page 2 of 9
development, without the interference of other, incompatible land uses."
Section 23-3-40. N.-- Uses by special review, of the Weld County Code allows for a "kennel"
in the (A) Agricultural Zone District. This code section in essence supports the proposed
USR application, as the proposed operation is controlled and does not interfere with
agricultural activities or other use by right activities. Weld County Code Section 23-3-40.N
allows for a kennel, and supporting activities for more than four (4) dogs with approval of
a Special Use Permit.
C. Section 23-2-220.A.3 -- The uses which will be permitted will be compatible with the
existing surrounding land uses.
The surrounding properties are rural residential lots created by the recorded exemption
process, such as the subject property. The closest residence is roughly 415 feet to the
northeast of the proposed kennel, others being roughly 900 feet and 1,000 feet. There are
currently no Use by Special Review Permits on the property. There are a few Use by
Special Review permits within one (1) mile of the subject property, including but not limited
to, one (1) water storage tank via USR12-0021, one (1) 370 -foot -tall radio tower via USR-
763, one (1) gravel pit via SUP -356, one (1) Non -1041 pipeline via USR18-0077, and one
(1) 60 -dog kennel via USR-1423.
The Weld County Department of Planning Services sent notice to eleven (11) surrounding
property owners within five hundred (500) feet. No correspondence was received back
from surrounding property owners regarding the proposed application. There were no
emails or phone calls received regarding the proposed application.
The proposed use is in an area that can support this development and the existing
screening, the Development Standards, and the Conditions of Approval will assist in
mitigating the impacts of the facility on the adjacent properties and ensure compatibility
with surrounding land uses and the region.
D. Section 23-2-220.A.4 -- The uses which will be permitted will be compatible with future
development of the surrounding area as permitted by the existing zoning and with the future
development as projected by Chapter 22 of the Weld County Code and any other
applicable code provisions or ordinances in effect, or the adopted Master Plans of affected
municipalities.
This site is located within the three (3) mile referral area of the Town of Nunn. The Town
of Nunn did not return a referral. The subject property is not located within a IGA or CPA
of a municipality.
E. Section 23-2-220.A.5 -- The application complies with Chapter 23, Articles V and XI, of the
Weld County Code.
The property is not within any recognized overlay districts, including the Geologic Hazard
Overlay District, the Special Flood Hazard Development Overlay area, the Airport Overlay
District, Historic Townsites Overlay District, 1-25 Overlay District, the Municipal Separate
Storm Sewer Systems (MS4) defined boundary or Agricultural Heritage Overlay District.
Building Permits issued on the lot will be required to adhere to the fee structure of the
County -Wide Road Impact Fee, County Facility Fee and Drainage Impact Fee Programs.
F. Section 23-2-220.A.6 -- The applicant has demonstrated a diligent effort to conserve prime
agricultural land in the locational decision for the proposed use.
USR23-0001, Salveson
Page 3 of 9
The site contains soils designated as "High Potential Dry Cropland — Prime if they become
irrigated" per the 1979 Soil Conservation Service Important Farmlands of Weld County
Map. The subject property was created via Recorded Exemption in 2002. It appears the
subject property has not been utilized for agricultural purposes since this land division.
Therefore, the proposal will not further remove any active farm ground from production.
G. Section 23-2-220.A.7 — There is adequate provisions for the protection of the health, safety,
and welfare of the inhabitants of the neighborhood and County.
The Design Standards (Section 23-2-240, Weld County Code), Operation Standards
(Section 23-2-250, Weld County Code), Conditions of Approval and Development
Standards can ensure that there are adequate provisions for the protection of health,
safety, and welfare of the inhabitants of the neighborhood and County.
This proposal has been reviewed by the appropriate referral agencies and it has been
determined that the attached conditions of approval and development standards ensure
that there are adequate provisions for the protection of the health, safety and welfare of
the inhabitants of the neighborhood and county and will address and mitigate impacts on
the surrounding area with the operation of this facility.

36. RIGHT TO EXTRACT MINERAL RESOURCES STATEMENT: Weld County has some of the most
abundant mineral resources, including, but not limited to, sand and gravel, oil, natural gas, and
coal. Under title 34 of the Colorado Revised Statutes, minerals are vital resources because (a) the
state's commercial mineral deposits are essential to the state's economy; (b) the populous counties of
the state face a critical shortage of such deposits; and (c) such deposits should be extracted according
to a rational plan, calculated to avoid waste of such deposits and cause the least practicable disruption
of the ecology and quality of life of the citizens of the populous counties of the state.
Mineral resource locations are widespread throughout the County and people moving into these areas
must recognize the various impacts associated with this development. Often times, mineral resource
sites are fixed to their geographical and geophysical locations. Moreover, these resources are
protected property rights and mineral owners should be afforded the opportunity to extract the mineral
resource.
USR23-0001, Salveson

37. WELD COUNTY'S RIGHT TO FARM STATEMENT: Weld County is one of the most productive
agricultural counties in the United States, typically ranking in the top ten counties in the country in total
market value of agricultural products sold. The rural areas of Weld County may be open and spacious,
but they are intensively used for agriculture. Persons moving into a rural area must recognize and
accept there are drawbacks, including conflicts with long-standing agricultural practices and a lower
level of services than in town. Along with the drawbacks come the incentives which attract urban
dwellers to relocate to rural areas: open views, spaciousness, wildlife, lack of city noise and congestion,
and the rural atmosphere and way of life. Without neighboring farms, those features which attract urban
dwellers to rural Weld County would quickly be gone forever.
Agricultural users of the land should not be expected to change their long-established agricultural
practices to accommodate the intrusions of urban users into a rural area. Well -run agricultural activities
will generate off -site impacts, including noise from tractors and equipment; slow -moving farm vehicles
on rural roads; dust from animal pens, field work, harvest and gravel roads; odor from animal
confinement, silage and manure; smoke from ditch burning; flies and mosquitoes; hunting and trapping
activities; shooting sports, legal hazing of nuisance wildlife; and the use of pesticides and fertilizers in
the fields, including the use of aerial spraying. It is common practice for agricultural producers to utilize
an accumulation of agricultural machinery and supplies to assist in their agricultural operations. A
concentration of miscellaneous agricultural materials often produces a visual disparity between rural
and urban areas of the County. Section 35-3.5-102, C.R.S., provides that an agricultural operation
shall not be found to be a public or private nuisance if the agricultural operation alleged to be a nuisance
employs methods or practices that are commonly or reasonably associated with agricultural production.
Water has been, and continues to be, the lifeline for the agricultural community. It is unrealistic to
assume that ditches and reservoirs may simply be moved "out of the way" of residential development.
When moving to the County, property owners and residents must realize they cannot take water from
irrigation ditches, lakes, or other structures, unless they have an adjudicated right to the water.
Weld County covers a land area of approximately four thousand (4,000) square miles in size (twice the
size of the State of Delaware) with more than three thousand seven hundred (3,700) miles of state and
county roads outside of municipalities. The sheer magnitude of the area to be served stretches
available resources. Law enforcement is based on responses to complaints more than on patrols of
the County, and the distances which must be traveled may delay all emergency responses, including
law enforcement, ambulance, and fire. Fire protection is usually provided by volunteers who must leave
their jobs and families to respond to emergencies. County gravel roads, no matter how often they are
bladed, will not provide the same kind of surface expected from a paved road. Snow removal priorities
mean that roads from subdivisions to arterials may not be cleared for several days after a major
snowstorm. Services in rural areas, in many cases, will not be equivalent to municipal services. Rural
dwellers must, by necessity, be more self-sufficient than urban dwellers.
People are exposed to different hazards in the County than in an urban or suburban setting. Farm
equipment and oil field equipment, ponds and irrigation ditches, electrical power for pumps and center
pivot operations, high speed traffic, sandburs, puncture vines, territorial farm dogs and livestock, and
open burning present real threats. Controlling children's activities is important, not only for their safety,
but also for the protection of the farmer's livelihood.

Subject: USR23-0001 - A Site Specific Development Plan and Use by Special Review Permit for a
Kennel in the A (Agricultural) Zone District.
On parcel(s) of land described as:
LOT A RE -3386, BEING PT W2NW4 SECTION 35, T9N, R66W of the 6th P.M., Weld County, Colorado.
Dear Applicants:
I have scheduled a meeting with the Weld County Planning Commission on April 04, 2023 at 1:30
p.m. A subsequent hearing with the Board of County Commissioners will be held on April 19, 2023 at
10:00 a.m. Both hearings will be held in the Hearing Room, Weld County Administration Building, 1150
O Street, Greeley, Colorado. The property owner and/or authorized agent must be in attendance to
answer any questions the Planning Commission members or Board of County Commissioners may
have.
Colorado Revised Statute, C.R.S.24-65.5-103 (adopted as part of H.B.01-1088) requires notification of
all mineral estate owners 30 days prior to any public hearing. The applicant needs to provide the
Weld County Planning Department with written certification indicating the above requirement has
been met.
A representative from the Department of Planning Services will be out to the property a minimum of
ten days prior to the hearing to post a sign, adjacent to and visible from a publicly maintained road
right-of-way which identifies the hearing time, date, and location. In the event the property is not
adjacent to a publicly maintained road right-of-way, one sign will be posted in the most prominent
place on the property and a second sign posted at the point at which the driveway (access drive)
intersects a publicly maintained road right-of-way.
The Department of Planning Services' staff will make a recommendation concerning this application
to the Weld County Planning Commission and will be included in the staff report one week prior to
the scheduled Planning Commission hearing. You may view the staff report at https://accela-
