Note the definition of BUILDING already includes structures and excludes fences.

This option would expand the opportunity to exceed maximum lot coverage for all structures, not only accessory, through the USR process. 3. 23-3-70 Change the formula for figuring building coverage to be in acres instead of square feet. Old formula: y= -0.152 In(x) + 1.7236, x is square footage of the lot, y is allowed building coverage New formula: y = -0.149 In(x) + 0.1,x is the acreage of the lot, y is allowed building coverage (%) 4.

Present: Torn Cope, Lonnie Ford, Elijah Hatch, Skip Holland, Sam Gluck, Butch White, Michael Wailes, Pamela Edens. Absent: Michael Palizzi. Also Present: Michael Hall, Angela Snyder, Maxwell Nader, Jim Flesher, and Torn Parke, Department of Planning Services; Lauren Light, Department of Health; Bob Choate, County Attorney, and Kris Ranslem, Secretary. CASE NUMBER: ORDINANCE 2021-15 PRESENTED BY: TOM PARKO/ANGELA SNYDER REQUEST: iN THE MATTER OF REPEALING AND REENACTING, WITH AMENDMENTS, CHAPTER 23 ZONING AND CHAPTER 24 Spa E_ JIVIBIONS, OF THE WELD COUNTY CODE (BULK REQUIREMENTS AND PUBLIC WATER). Tom Parko, Planning Services, presented Ordinance 2021-15 regarding proposed changes in the Weld County Code, Angela Snyder, Planning Services, provided a brief description of the proposed changes in building/lot coverage and allowing poultry in the R-5 Zone District in Chapter 23 Additionally, she provided information on the proposed code changes regarding public water in Chapters 23 and 24. The Chair asked if there was anyone in the audience who wished to speak for or against this application, No one wished to speak Commissioner Ford asked if there will be any problems with the 40% coverage on lots less than 6000 square feet or 10% coverage for larger lots. Ms. Snyder said that that staff looked at existing historic townsites and other areas of the County and tried to come up with a number that would work for most lots. She noted that there was one (1) lot in Carr that they found exceeded the limit; however, that property is permitted under a USR (Use by Special Review) Ms. Snyder noted that they have a change to the building coverage definition 'n Section 23-1-90 that is currently proposed as "BUILDING COVERAGE The combined square footage of all STRUCTURES, excluding fences d.vided by the total square footage of the LOT". She said that because ft can be confusing and could be interpreted to mean the bottom of the structure would be counted instead of the actual coverage and things, such as gazebos or other structures that do affect drainage might come into question if they don't actually have a footprint. Therefore, Ms. Snyder recommends changing the proposed definition to read l'BUIDING COVERAGE: The percentage of a LOT covered by STRUCTURES, excluding fences". Commissioner Wailes referred to water storage tanks that are mushroom shaped and doesn't know if they are on county property and asked how that works. Ms. Snyder said that most of those are located on agricultural zoned property which they don't regulate coverage. Commissioner Holland asked if this is referring to the area of impervious surface or the structure area. Ms Snyder said in the agricultural subdivisions and townsites and in the estate zone, staff 's proposing to use building coverage definition, which would mean the structures only. She added that other zones include impervious surfaces. Commissioner Edens asked what would be considered in the PIED ag zoned properties. Ms. Snyder said that there are very few PUD ag properties. Mr. Parko said that usually the PUDs have ag uses but they will typically be Estate, R-1 or Commercial. Mr. Snyder added that when designing the PUD, lot coverage can be negotiated and incorporated into the stormwater management plan. 1 Motion: Forward Ordinance 2021-15 to the Board of County ommission►ers along with the Planning Commission's recommendation of approval along with Staff's change to Section 23-1-90 14BuILDING COVERAGE: The percentage of a LOT covered by STRUCTURES, excluding fences", Moved by Butch White, Seconded by.

The other zones just say "permit in accordance with the requirements and procedures set forth in Article I I , Division 4 of this chapter" so I think we can leave them alone. We're changing this phase in Art. II, Div. 4, but I think it'd be easier to make this change in these sections with this ord instead. Sec. 23-3-40.
