To whom this may concern:
The building on my property was constructed for use by my construction company, but my construction company no
longer is doing business as I retired and the space is used for storing Agricultural equipment and materials.
Therefore the USR 18-0023 is no longer needed on this property for that purpose.

Hi Les,
Thanks for your call. Can you please send us a separate email with the following text? From there we
can send it to Weld County:
"We are no longer using the use described in the previous USR (applied for by the construction company).
We no longer operate a construction company at all. The shed is used to store agricultural equipment,
which should not need a special use permit. Please consider this my written agreement to terminate the
previous USR and proceed with the solar land use permit."

Good morning Les,
Can you please respond to this email by writing/stating something along the lines of, "I would like to
withdraw USR18-0023 pertaining to the maintenance building in the southeast corner of my parcel."
Long story short, Weld County called me this morning and said that they don't allow two (2) USR
permits on the same project parcel. So, in order for our USR application for the solar garden to get a
public hearing in November, we need you to withdraw USR18-0023 that pertains to the maintenance
building.
I can be reached via this email or at 612-230-0172 with any further questions.
Thanks,

1) Section 22-2-20.F.2 (A.Policy 6,2) states: "Support opportunities,
such as, but not, limited to hobby farming and home businesses, to
supplement family income and reduce living expenses for farm
families and others who prefer a rural lifestyle" The proposed
commercial activities will not impact the current agricultural use of
the land, as they will be limited to the dry area of the property.
2) Section 22-2-20.G.2 (A.Policy 7.2) states: "Conversion of
agricultural land to nonurban residential, commercial and industrial
uses should be accommodated when the subject site is in an area
that can support such development and should attempt to be
compatible with the region." The Conditions of Approval and the
Development Standards will assist in mitigating the impacts of the
facility on the adjacent properties and ensure compatibility with
surrounding land uses and the region.
3) Section 22-2-100.A (C.Goal 1) states: "Promote the location of
commercial uses within municipalities, County Urban Growth
Boundary areas, intergovernmental Agreement urban growth
areas, growth management areas as defined in municipal
comprehensive plans, the Regional Urbanization Areas, Urban
Development Nodes or where adequate services are currently
available or reasonably obtainable." This site is located within the
Kersey Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) Area and the Town of
Kersey indicated no conflict in the signed Notice of Inquiry response
submitted with the application.
B. Section 23-2-230.6.2 -- The proposal is consistent with the intent of the
A (Agricultural) Zone District. Section 23-3-10 states, "The A (Agricultural)
Zone District is also intended to provide areas for the conduct of Uses by
Special Review which have been determined to be more intense or to have
a potentially greater impact than Uses Allowed by Right." The attached
Conditions of Approval and Development Standards will adequately
mitigate the impacts of the use.
1) Section 23-3-40.S of the Weld County Code allows for, "Any use
permitted as a Use by Right, Accessory Use, or Use by Special
Review in the Commercial or Industrial Zone Districts, provided that
the property is not a Lot in an approved or recorded subdivision plat
or part of a map or plan filed prior to adoption of any regulations
controlling subdivisions. PUD development proposals shall not be
permitted to use the Use by Special Review permit process to
develop."
C. Section 23-2-230.B.3 -- The Uses which will be permitted will be compatible
with the existing surrounding land uses. The proposal includes using one

roughly 7,000 -square -foot barn and approximately 3.5 acres of the ±72.8
acres for commercial purposes. The commercial area of the property is
within a quarter of a mile from the nearest residence. Within one (1) mile of
this proposed facility there are two (2) Use by Special Review Permits:
MUSR14-0006, adjacent to the site, for an oil and gas service yard, and
USR-1274 for vehicle storage and a recreation facility. Two phone calls
were received from surrounding property owners, citing dust, increased
truck traffic and the operation of a commercial business without the
necessary permits. The applicants held a neighborhood meeting on
December 19, 2017. Two (2) neighbors, residing in the home closest to the
site, and a representative from the Lower Latham Ditch Company were
present. Concerns regarding dust and truck traffic were raised by the
neighbors. The Lower Latham Ditch Company representative was
interested in increasing communication, as the Lower Latham Reservoir
access traverses the applicant's property. Lower Latham Ditch Company
did not return a referral response, so it is unclear if their concerns have
been mitigated.
D. Section 23-2-230.6.4 -- 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 this Code or master plans of affected municipalities. This site
is located within the Town of Kersey's Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA)
Area. In the Notice of Inquiry response submitted with the application, the
Town of Kersey stated no concerns. The site is located within the three (3)
mile Urban Growth Boundary (UGB) areas of the Cities of Evans and
Greeley and the Town of LaSalle. The Town of LaSalle, in a referral
response dated June 26, 2018, requested that as much traffic as possible
be diverted away from County Road 52 as it enters the Town of LaSalle,
with County Roads 43, 47 and 49 listed as preferred truck routes.
E. Section 23-2-230.6.5 -- The application complies with of Chapter 23
Articles V and XI of the Weld County Code. The site is located in the
Greeley -Weld Airport Overlay District. The site is not located in a floodplain
or geohazard 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 23-2-230.B.6 -- The applicant has demonstrated a diligent effort to
conserve prime farmland in the locational decision for the proposed Use.
The proposed facility is located on approximately 3.5 acres of the 83 -acre
site. The soils therein are designated "Prime (Irrigated)," per the 1979 Soil
Conservation Service Important Farmlands of Weld County Map; however,
the pivot sprinkler does not reach that part of the field where commercial
operations take place.

32. 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 persons moving into these 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.
33. The Weld County Right to Farm Statement, as it appears in Section 22-2-20.J.2 of the
Weld County Code, shall be placed on the map and recognized at all times.
