PURPOSE Weld County Public Works has been coordinating with the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT), and Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR), related to the negotiated closure of twelve county road crossings of UPRR, of which this application specifically applies to one crossing located east of U.S. 85 at WCR 33. On April 28, 2021, the Weld County Board of County Commissioners unanimously approved submitting the WCR 33 application to the PUC. The Public Utilities Commission (PUC) approved closing the WCR 33 crossing on July 14, 2021. While the process for closing a railroad crossing is done through the PUC, the process for Weld County to vacate road right-of-way (ROW) is done in accordance with the requirements of C.R.S. Section 43-2-303(2)(b) and Weld County Code Chapter 8, Article 16. Therefore, the purpose of this request is to vacate portions of WCR 33 as part of this application with the advice and assistance from the County Attorney's Office. BACKGROUND The history of the U.S. 85 Corridor is lengthy, and involves Union Pacific Railroad Company (UPRR), Weld County and CDOT. In 1923, UPRR entered into a 50 -year lease with Weld County for the Highway 85 right- of-way. In 1931, UPRR and Weld County entered into a new year-to-year lease of Highway 85 and terminated the prior 50 -year lease. In 1957, UPRR and CDOT entered into a 50 -year lease of the Highway 85 right-of-way allowing CDOT to have highway facilities within the right-of-way. That lease terminated December 31, 2006. Since the termination, and for the past twelve years, both CDOT and UPRR have been negotiating the resolution of the matter which culminated in a Purchase and Sale Agreement. UPRR, Weld County and CDOT have worked together strategically, to enable the closure of crossings that would allow trains to park or pass within railroad sidings that presently have at -grade highway -rail crossings, thus improving rail operations, and removing random crossing occupation by trains within the county to provide better vehicular circulation and more reliable access routes for emergency services. CDOT entered into the Purchase and Sale Agreement with UPRR in order for CDOT to obtain full fee ownership for those portions of the highway located within railroad right-of-way, while still providing UPRR rail capacity as a result of the purchase to ensure the functional integrity of both the CDOT and UPRR transportation systems and to improve the safety of the corridor by reducing potential vehicle/train conflicts. To mitigate capacity impairment from the land sale, the Purchase and Sale Agreement includes the closure of several roads intersecting the railroad and US 85, most of which are under the jurisdiction 2022-0564 of Weld County. CDOT does not have authority to close county roads and has therefore coordinated with Weld County to satisfy this portion of the agreement. To this end, Weld County and CDOT hosted public meetings regarding the closures in Fort Lupton and Eaton on January 22 and 23, 2018, respectively. Some of the original roads identified couldn't be accommodated and have been modified since the public meetings. The changes include WCR 37 and WCR 78 being added to the list and replacing WCR 18.5 and WCR 4, which were removed. The Purchase and Sale Agreement identified the closure of twelve county roads. Weld County has been working with CDOT and UPRR on the locations for these road closures that will work best for meeting the goals of all the agencies involved. The agencies' goals are as follows: • CDOT Goal: Obtain full fee ownership from UPRR for the US 85 ROW. UPRR Goal: Mitigate capacity impairments and close the Purchase and Sale Agreement. Weld County Goal: Ensure the long-term stability of the US 85 corridor through partnering with CDOT and UPRR that improves the safety of the highway/rail corridor, improves the operational efficiencies to enhance economic development opportunities, and reduces conflicts for communities, while also ensuring reliable emergency response time. With the simultaneous processing of this vacation application along with the WCR 44 application only one railroad crossing will remain of the twelve closure locations. RIGHTS -OF -WAY REQUESTED TO BE VACATED County Road 33 Weld County Public Works petitions to vacate all of that county road right-of-way (ROW) of Weld County Road 33 that is described and depicted in Exhibit A, attached hereto ("WCR 33 ROW").
