18) 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
2023-2294
PL2874
TWO -LOT FAMILY FARM DIVISION, FFD23-0008 — DAVID DEWEY
PAGE 6
areas must recognize the various impacts associated with this
development. Oftentimes, 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.
19) The Weld County Right to Farm Statement, as it appears in
Section 22-2-30.A.4.a of the Weld County Code, shall be placed on
the map and recognized at all times.
2. Next Steps:
Per Section 24-7-50 of the Weld County Code:
A. The Family Farm Division revised draft plat shall be submitted once an
application is approved. The applicant shall electronically submit the draft
plat in PDF format to the Department of Planning Services for Planning and
Public Works review. Planning staff will send the draft plat back to the
applicant with redline comments to be incorporated in the revised plat.
There may be subsequent rounds of review.
B. Upon approval of the draft plat and completion of the conditions of
approval, the applicant shall submit the signed and notarized approved plat
to the Department of Planning Services. The approved plat shall be
recorded in the Office of the Weld County Clerk and Recorder by the
Department of Planning Services. The approved plat and additional
requirements shall be recorded within 120 days from the date of approval
by the Board of County Commissioners. The applicant shall be responsible
for paying the recording fee.
3. Enforcement:
Per Section 24-7-60 of the Weld County Code:
A. If the Family Farm Division plat has not been recorded within 120 days from
the date of approval by the Board of County Commissioners, or if an
applicant is unable to meet any of the conditions within 120 days of
approval, the Director of Planning Services may grant an extension for a
period not to exceed one (1) year, for good cause shown, upon a written
request by the applicant. If the applicant is unwilling to meet any of the
conditions of approval or the extension expires, the application will be
forwarded to the Board of County Commissioners for reconsideration. The
entire application may be considered for denial by the Board of County
Commissioners. Alternatively, the Board of County Commissioners may
consider upholding, modifying, or removing the contested conditions of
approval.

B. The property owner shall comply with the recorded plat notes and lot
configuration. Noncompliance may result in locking of the lots and
withholding Weld County permits.
C. The Board of County Commissioners shall have the power to bring an
action to enjoin any subdivider from selling, agreeing to sell, or offering to
sell subdivided land before a plat for such subdivided land has been
approved and recorded per C.R.S. § 30-28-110(4).
4. Plat Recording Process:
Per Section 24-7-40 and Appendix 5-J of the Weld County Code:
A. Upon completion of the conditions of approval and acceptance of the plat,
the plat may be submitted for recording with the recording fee to the
Planner. The plat shall be signed and notarized by the property owners.
Upon approval by the Board of County Commissioners, the Chair of the
Board shall sign the plat.
B. The Department of Planning Services shall submit the plat to the Weld
County Clerk and Recorder for recording.
C. The Family Farm Division is approved and binding the date the plat is
recorded with the Weld County Clerk and Recorder.
D. Should the plat not be recorded within the required 120 days from the date
the Commissioner's Resolution was signed, a $50.00 Recording
Continuance fee shall be assessed for each additional three (3) month
period that the plat has not been recorded beyond the initial 120 days.
5. Recording New Deeds:
The applicant shall create and record deeds for all the newly created lots; deeds
shall include the legal description of each lot and the reception number of the
Family Farm Division plat. New deeds are required even if lots will remain under
the same ownership. Failure to do so may create issues with the proper
assessment of the lots by the Weld County Assessor's Department and may create
a clouded chain of title.

R. 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

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.
S. 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
FFD23-0008 — Dewey
Page 4 of 6
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, sand burs, 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.
4. Next Steps:
Per Section 24-7-50 of the Weld County Code:
A. The Family Farm Division revised draft plat shall be submitted once an application is approved.
The applicant shall electronically submit the draft plat in PDF format to the Department of Planning
Services for Planning and Public Works review. Planning staff will send the draft plat back to the
applicant with redline comments to be incorporated in the revised plat. There may be subsequent
rounds of review.
B. Upon approval of the draft plat and completion of the conditions of approval, the applicant shall
submit the signed and notarized approved plat to the Department of Planning Services. The
approved plat shall be recorded in the Office of the Weld County Clerk and Recorder by the
Department of Planning Services. The approved plat and additional requirements shall be recorded
within one hundred twenty (120) days from the date the administrative review was signed or from
the date of approval by the Board of County Commissioners. The applicant shall be responsible for
paying the recording fee.
5. Enforcement
Per Section 24-7-60 of the Weld County Code:
A. If the Family Farm Division plat has not been recorded within one hundred twenty (120) days from
the date the Staff Report was administratively signed or the date of approval by the Board of County
Commissioners, or if an applicant is unable to meet any of the conditions within one hundred twenty
(120) days of approval, the Director of Planning Services may grant an extension for a period not
to exceed one (1) year, for good cause shown, upon a written request by the applicant. If the
applicant is unwilling to meet any of the conditions of approval or the extension expires, the
application will be forwarded to the Board of County Commissioners for reconsideration. The entire
application may be considered for denial by the Board of County Commissioners. Alternatively, the
Board of County Commissioners may consider upholding, modifying or removing the contested
conditions of approval.
FFD23-0008 — Dewey
Page 5of6
B. The property owner shall comply with the recorded plat notes and lot configuration. Noncompliance
may result in locking of the lots and withholding Weld County permits.
C. The Board of County Commissioners shall have the power to bring an action to enjoin any
subdivider from selling, agreeing to sell or offering to sell subdivided land before a plat for such
subdivided land has been approved and recorded per Section 30-28-110(4), C.R.S.
6. Plat Recording Process:
Per Section 24-7-40 and Appendix 5-J of the Weld County Code:
A. Upon completion of the conditions of approval and acceptance of the plat, the plat may be
submitted for recording with the recording fee to the Planner. The plat shall be signed and
notarized by the property owners. If approved by the Department of Planning Services, the
Planning Director shall sign the plat. If approved by the Board of County Commissioners, the
Chair of the Board shall sign the plat.
B. The Department of Planning Services shall submit the plat to the Weld County Clerk and
Recorder for recording.
C. The Family Farm Division is approved and binding the date the plat is recorded with the Weld
County Clerk and Recorder.
D. Should the plat not be recorded within the required one hundred twenty (120) days from the
date the Administrative Review was signed, a $50.00 Recording Continuance fee shall be
assessed for each additional three (3) month period that the plat has not been recorded beyond
the initial one hundred twenty (120) days.
7. Recording New Deeds:
The applicant shall create and record deeds for all the newly created lots; deeds shall include the legal
description of each lot and the reception number of the Family Farm Division plat. New deeds are
required even if lots will remain under the same ownership. Failure to do so may create issues with the
proper assessment of the lots by the Weld County Assessor's Department and may create a clouded
chain of title.

RE: 26248 Weld County Road 66
Greeley, CO 80631
To whom it may concern,
I have applied for a "Family Farm Exemption" with Weld County Planning.
This property has been in my family's possession since 1910. I am wanting to exempt and purchase the
west side of the property (showing 12.34 acres) starting from the Northwest corner of the parcel, going
along the west property line to the south property line, then returning to the north property line. I have
had the property surveyed (included in my application) and the survey shows that the east side of the
property, I want exempted, is bordered by a "Unique characteristic" which is the irrigation ditch that
separates the irrigated portion of the farm from the non -irrigation portion. I want to exempt this non -
irrigated portion from the total farm acreage and purchase it from my father. This dry area of the farm
property is not farmable.
Thank you for considering my request.
Respectfully,
Dan Dewey

MEMORANDUM
TO: Diana Aungst, Planning Services
FROM: Melissa J King, PE, Development Review
DATE: May 25, 2023
SUBJECT: FFD23-0008 Daniel Dewey
The proposal has been reviewed on behalf of the Weld County Department of Public Works and the
Department of Planning Services. Staff comments made during this phase of the application process may
not be all-inclusive, as other issues may arise during the remaining application process.
COMMENTS:
Parcel: 080128000017.
The project proposes to create a FAMILY FARM DIVISION.
ACCESS:
Development Review has reviewed the application materials related to access.
There are two existing access points onto CR 66 — one in the northwestern corner of the parcel and one in
the northeastern corner of the parcel. The western access will be used by Lot A and the eastern access
will be used by Lot B. These access points appear to meet the Minimum Access Spacing Criteria. The
applicant shall obtain access permits for these locations.
Per Sec. 8-14-30, an Access Permit is required for access to Weld County maintained roadways. We
strongly encourage you to discuss your access location with Development Review prior to laying out your
site plat. All "preliminarily approved" accesses are subject to change during the access permitting process.
Please refer to Chapter 8 of the Weld County Code for more information regarding access.
ROADS AND RIGHT-OF-WAY:
County Road 66 is a gravel road and is designated on the Weld County Functional Classification Map (Code
Ordinance 2017-01) as a local road, which requires 60 feet of right-of-way. The applicant shall delineate on
the plat the future and existing right-of-way and the physical location of the road. If the right-of-way cannot
be verified it shall be dedicated. Pursuant to the definition of setback in the Weld County Code Sec. 23-1-
90, the required setback is measured from the future right-of-way line. Be aware that physical roadways
may not be centered in the right-of-way. This road is maintained by Weld County.
Per Chapter 8, Article 13, Section 8-13-30, a Weld County Right -of -Way Use Permit is required for any
project that will be occupying, constructing or excavating facilities within, and or encroaching upon, any
County rights -of -way or easement. Right -of -Way Use Permit instructions and application can be found at
https://www.weldoov.com/Government/Departments/Public-Works/Permits
Weld County will not replace overlapping easements located within existing right-of-way or pay to relocate
existing utilities within the County right-of-way.
CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL:
The plat shall be amended to delineate the following:
1. County Road 66 is a gravel road and is designated on the Weld County Functional
Classification Map (Code Ordinance 2017-01) as a local road, which requires 60 feet of
right-of-way at full buildout. The applicant shall delineate and label on the plat the future
and existing right-of-way (along with the documents creating the existing right-of-way)
and the physical location of the road. If the existing right-of-way cannot be verified it shall
be dedicated. The applicant shall also delineate the physical location of the roadway.
Pursuant to the definition of setback in the Weld County Code Sec. 23-1-90, the required
setback is measured from the future right-of-way line. This road is maintained by Weld
County. (Development Review)
2. Show and label the preliminarily accepted access points onto CR 66. Include access
permit type (e.g. Residential, Agricultural). (Development Review)
DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS (NOTES ON THE PLAT)
1. The property owner or operator shall be responsible for controlling noxious weeds on the
site, pursuant to Chapter 15, Article I and II, of the Weld County Code. (Development
Review)
2. Access on the site shall be maintained to mitigate any impacts to the public road including
damages and/or offsite tracking. (Development Review)

Memorandum
To: Diana Aungst, WC Planning
From: Lauren Light, Environmental Health Services
Date: June 5, 2023
Re: FFD23-0008 Applicant: David Dewey
Environmental Health Services has reviewed this proposal to exempt 1 lot from 74.24 acres.
Proposed Lot A will consist of 12.34 acres and proposed Lot B will consist of 61.9 acres. Proposed lot
A is currently served by a tap from North Weld County Water District and an existing On -site
Wastewater Treatment System permitted for 4 bedrooms (SP -0400411). Proposed lot A is vacant
and will be served by an individual well, due to North Weld County Water District moratorium, and an
on -site wastewater treatment System if a residence is constructed.
The Environmental Health Services Division recommends the following:
The following should be included as notes on the plat:
1 This application is proposing a well as its source of water. The applicant should be made
aware that while they may be able to obtain a well permit from the Office of the State
Engineer, Division of Water Resources, the quantity of water available for usage may be
limited to specific uses, i.e., domestic use only, etc. Also, the applicant should be made
aware that groundwater may not meet all drinking water standards as defined by the
Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. We strongly encourage the
applicant to test their drinking water prior to consumption and periodically test it over time.
2. If a residence is constructed, a Weld County On -site Wastewater Treatment System Permit
is required and shall be installed according to the Weld County On -site Wastewater
Treatment System Regulations.
