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 GENERAL PROJECT INFORMATION/LOCATION Project description: Amended PUD Change of Zone of Corrected Lakota Lakes (PZ-594) to allow an Accessory Dwelling Unit for each lot for a total of two residences per lot in the PUD. This project is south of and adjacent to CR 54 and is west of CR 15.5. Parcel number 095729202001. Access is from CR 54. CAPITAL IMPROVMENTS PROJECT The bridge on CR 54 located approximately 1,563 feet to the west of CR 15 is in the process of being designed to be replaced. This will involve upgrading the width of the bridge to accommodate the future expansion of CR 54. The ROW acquisition is not anticipated to impact this property at this time. ACCESS Weld County Public Works has reviewed the application materials related to access. The applicant is not proposing to change any of the access points. County Road 54 had an existing access control plan (ACP). Website: for CR 54 ACP. https://www.weldgov.com/departments/publicworks/access control plans/freedom parkway All the lots access via Lakota lakes drive except for Lot 1, parcel: 095729202001 which has an address of 7008 CR 54 Weld. Which is currently permitted under AP14-00094 (2014). Lot 1 access point has been identified in the December 12, 2018, CR 54 ACP. It is located under S-28 is for multiple uses. See page 9 of 42 of the ACP (Below). Appendix J (Below) has identified S-28 to be relocated to a shared access with Lakota Lakes drive. This is consistent with Weld County Code Sec. 27- 2-20- Access standards "All PUD developments will be served by an internally paved road system according to County standards...ecY". Lot 1 direct access to CR 54 under AP14-00094 shall be "Closed and Reclaimed". The access shall be reconfigured to use Lakota lakes drive and shown on the original PUD Plat. AP -14-00094 shall be closed and the access point shall remove the gravel/asphalt removed and access revegetated with native seed. Please be advised that the future access will need to be out of the Future County Road 54 ROW. Which is approximately 70 feet from the center of the road.

The application indicates Little Thompson Water District will provide water to the second residences. On -site wastewater treatment systems (OWTS) will provide sewer for the second residences. OWTS permits for Lots 1 through 7 indicate engineer designs may be required due to soil types. The groundwater level may require some systems to be installed at a shallow level. Based on the information contained in these permits the lots should accommodate proposed second residences served by OWTS. The following section of the Weld County Code requires a new OWTS permit and separate OWTS for the second residence unless the original OWTS was sized for multiple connections. Sec. 30-4-140. - General prohibitions. A person must not connect more than one (1) dwelling, commercial, business, institutional or industrial unit to the same OWTS unless such multiple connection was specified in the application submitted and, in the permit, issued for the system. We recommend the following appear as notes on the Change of Zone plat: 1. Water service may be obtained Little Thompson Water District. 2. The parcel is currently not served by a municipal sanitary sewer system. Sewage disposal may be by On -site wastewater treatment systems (OWTS) designed in accordance with the regulations of the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, Water Quality Control Division and the Weld County Code in effect at the time of construction, repair, replacement, or modification of the system.

Diana, The District currently serves the propertics located in Lakota Lakes Ranch. We understand from the referral documents, thc applicant is proposing a zonc change to allow accessory dwellings for thc properties located in thc Lakota Lakes Ranch subdivision. Thc District allows service to accessory dwellings from a single, standard residential tap and thc District's guideline is a size limit of 1,000 square fcct for such accessory structures. The District's intent is to serve utility based accessory structures or a "mother in law" apartment which is ostensibly intcndcd for occupancy by a family member. Should the habitable accessory dwelling or the primary residence become a long-term rental property to thc same tcnant, or either structure becomes located on a separate parcel through the property subdividing process, a separate tap will be required. Thc District evaluates thc request for watcr service to proposed accessory dwellings through thc commitment letter process on a cast -by -cast basis. A commitment request is required to be submitted to the District for each proposed accessory dwelling. We will then evaluate the proposed accessory dwelling and thc projected watcr use. A commitment letter with all requirements and provisions for water service will then be issued. Thank you and please contact me with any questions.

All parcels within this subdivision are within FRFR jurisdiction. Information about this application was provided to Front Range Fire Rescue (FRFR) by Weld County for review and comment, pursuant to the 2018 International Fire Code (IFC). The Weld County Board of Commissioners granted a Consent to Enforce the 2018 IFC within the FRFR response area. FIRE CODE REQUIREMENTS Conceptual Development Guide - Component Two (Service Provision lnwacts): Item #3 indicates that a secondary residence will present increased fire risk. Mention is made of a nearby lake, appearing to indicate that a lake somehow reduces the fire risk. • Lakota Lakes Ranch Road has two (2) fire hydrants, one near the entrance off County Road 54, and one near the end of the cul de sac, which provide a source of firefighting water supply. The Applicant shall ensure that both hydrants remain visible and accessible at all times, which includes ensuring that snow removal operations do not hinder visibility of, or access to, either fire hydrant. Conceptual Development Guide - Component Six (Signag : Item #1 indicates that no additional signage will be required with this change of zoning. However, if an additional dwelling unit is constructed on any lot that contains an existing dwelling unit, then a unique address is required for the additional dwelling. Section R319 of the 2018 International Residential Code that has been adopted by Weld County requires address identification to be approved by the fire code official. • Each dwelling unit shall be provided with a separate and unique address. • Both addresses shall be clearly posted on Lakota Lakes Ranch Road so they are visible and legible. • Each home's address shall be clearly posted on the specific home.

NW 1/4 of Section 29, T5N, R67W, 6th P.M. Water Division 1, Water District 4 Dear Ms. Aungst, We have reviewed the above referenced proposal for a change of zone for the Lakota Lakes Ranch PUD. The submitted material does not appear to qualify as a "subdivision" as defined in section 30-28-101(10)(a), C.R.S. Therefore, pursuant to the State Engineer's March 4, 2005 and March 11, 2011 memorandums to county planning directors, this office will only perform a cursory review of the referral information and provide comments. The comments will not address the adequacy of the water supply plan for this property or the ability of the water supply plan to satisfy any County regulations or requirements. The application seeks to amend the zoning for the Lakota Lakes Ranch PUD to accommodate Accessory Dwelling Units ("ADUs") for family use on the lots. Lots 1-7 are each between 2 and 4 acres in size. Each lot except Lot 3 currently contains an existing single family dwelling, and three of the lots currently have outbuildings built that could function as ADUs once the change of zone is approved. The Lakota Lakes Ranch Homeowners Association is restricting use of ADU buildings to family only. Outlots A -D are non-residential, and while included in this application, are not proposed to accommodate ADUs. Water is currently supplied to each of the occupied residential lots through existing taps with the Little Thompson Water District. The application materials included invoices from Little Thompson Water District for each occupied lot verifying the existence of each tap. Contingent on water service being provided by the Little Thompson Water District, our office has no objection to the proposed change of zone. Should you or the applicant have any questions regarding this matter, please contact Javier Vargas -Johnson at this office at 303-866-3581 ext. 8227 or iavier.vargasjohnson@state.co.us .
