Y M 5 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.

MAURO RODRIGUEZ and LOUISA RODRIGUEZ, Case Number:22-C-32836 Division:C Defendants. ORDER IMPOSING PENALTIES FOR ZONING VIOLATIONS This matter came before the Court on December 5,2022,for an evidentiary hearing to review the stipulation agreed upon by the parties and ordered by the Court on July 7,2022.Plaintiff was represented by Assistant Weld County Attorney Matthew Conroy,and Defendants failed to appear. Testimony was heard from Bethany Pascoe,Weld County Code Compliance Officer. Based upon the foregoing,this Court makes the following findings of fact and conclusions of law: 1. This Court has jurisdiction over the subject matter and the parties herein. This is an action to enforce zoning and/or building code violations within the unincorporated area of Weld County pursuant to C.R.S.§30-28-124.5,C.R.S.§30-28-210,Weld County Code (WCC)§23-10-40,and WCC§29-11-10(C).Defendants were properly served on June 14, 2022. Defendants consented to the Court's jurisdiction and entered into a stipulation on July 7,2022,which was approved and ordered by the Court on July 7,2022. 2. Defendants own and/or occupy the property located at 6711 County Road 21,Fort Lupton, Colorado 80621,in unincorporated Weld County(the"Property").The Property is zoned(A) Agricultural. 3. By stipulation,Defendants agreed that the Property was in violation of the Weld County Code due to the presence of a visible noncommerical junkyard,multiple commercial vehicles, an unpermitted accessory building,and unpermitted electrical work.Defendants further agreed to resolve all of these issues by August I9,2022.Weld County Code Compliance Officer, Bethany Pascoe has inspected the property on multiple occasions,including most recently on November 30,2022.As detailed by the testimony of Ms.Pascoe,and as depicted in the photographs admitted into evidence as Exhibits 1-5,most of the issues have been resolved as of the date of the inspection,but not the electrical work completed without a permit. 4. The Court finds that the property still contains unpermitted electrical work after the stipulated deadline of August 19,2022 in violation of the Weld County Code and the Stipulation;and thus Defendants have materially breached the stipulation. 5. Defendants agreed to remedy all of the violations on the property as set forth in the stipulation but have failed to do so. The Court finds that Plaintiff has proven by a preponderance of evidence that the property is in violation of the Weld County Code and that the defendants have materially breached the stipulation. IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED,ADJUDGED AND DECREED: 6. At the request of the County,a$20.00 per day penalty is ordered due to the continued violation instead of the stipulated$50.00 per day.The penalty will begin on December 5,2022 and will continue until further order of this Court.At request of the County,execution and collection of this judgement will be stayed for 30 days.
