family dwelling unit per lot other than those permitted under Section 23-3-20.A. (second
single-family dwelling unit) in the A (Agricultural) Zone District.
Legal Lot 15 of Northwest Estates 2nd Filing; being a part of the W2 of Section 29, T7N,
Description: R67W of the 6th P.M., Weld County, CO
Location:
East of and adjacent to Lee Lake Avenue and approximately 0.45 miles north of County
Road 76
Size of Parcel: +1- 2.26 acres Parcel No. 0705-29-3-01-015
Case Summary:
The applicant is requesting a Site Specific Development Plan and Use by Special Review Permit for a
second single-family dwelling on an approximately 2.26 acre parcel of land. The parcel is located in
Northwest Estates 2nd Filing, which contains twenty-two (22) lots, recorded June 2, 1972, reception #
1590762 and is an (A) Agricultural zoned subdivision. Per Section 23-3-40.M of the Weld County Code, a
USR for a second home is required because the subject lot is within a subdivision. Per Section 23-4-
600.A of the Weld County Code, amended by Ordinance 2019-02, effective July 25, 2019, the lot is 2.26
acres, and does not meet the 2.5 acre minimum lot size requirement for second homes in the A
(Agricultural) Zone District. However, this case is being processed under County Code that was in effect
as the time the application was deemed complete in 2016.
The second home will be utilized by her son, Ian Jensen, to help Marie Alkire care for the property. The
applicant submitted the complete USR application on November 7, 2016. During the initial USR process
in 2017, Alkire withdrew the application and received the application fee refund, because Ian was delayed
in moving to Colorado. Instead of constructing a second home at that time, Alkire constructed an
approximately 850 square -foot accessory structure (building permit #ASN18-0092) in 2018. This structure
is located behind the primary residence and is permitted as a personal art studio and office. In 2019,
Alkire contacted the Planning Department and paid a new application fee to continue the USR for the
second home because her son was now able to move to Colorado. If the USR is approved, her intent is to
convert and use the existing 850 square -foot accessory structure built in 2018 as a second home. No
other changes to the property are proposed.
DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING SERVICES' STAFF RECOMMENDS THAT THIS REQUEST BE
APPROVED FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS:
1. The submitted materials are in compliance with the application requirements of Section 23-2-260
of the Weld County Code.
2. It is the opinion of the Department of Planning Services' staff that the applicant has shown
compliance with Section 23-2-220 of the Weld County Code as follows:
USR16-0040 — Alkire
Page 2 of 9
A. Section 23-2-220.A.1. -- The proposed use is consistent with Chapter 22 and any other
applicable code provisions or ordinance in effect.
Section 22-2-20.F.3. - A.Policy 6.3. states, "Encourage multi -generational, caretaker,
guest and accessory quarters."
The proposed second single family dwelling is for a residence for a family member. The
family member will assist with maintaining the property and will provide future personal
care.
Section 22-2-20.H. - A.Goal 8. States, "Ensure that adequate services and facilities are
currently available or reasonably obtainable to accommodate the requested new land use
change for more intensive development."
There is currently water and septic service provided to the property. Water is provided by
North Weld County Water District (NWCWD) meter # 2733 002. The original NWCWD
letter, dated May 18, 2016, states that the District has no conflict with building a second
residence on the parcel. An updated NCWCWD letter, dated April 23, 2019, states that
the District will honor the 2016 letter as the process began at that time and that they have
no conflicts or requirements for the second home. The septic system for the primary
residence is permitted by SP -1300209 and is sized for six (6) bedrooms. The septic
system for the existing accessory structure, which is proposed to be converted into the
second home is permitted by SP -1600300 and is sized for one (1) bedroom.
B. Section 23-2-220.A.2. -- The proposed use is consistent with the intent of the A
(Agricultural) Zone District.
Section 23-3-10. — Intent, of the Weld County Code 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." As of November 7, 2016, the date of complete application
submittal, this code section allowed the applicant to apply for a Use by Special Review
permit, which is more intense than Uses Allowed by Right.
Section 23-3-40.M. — Uses by special review, of the Weld County Code states, "One (1)
single-family dwelling unit per lot other than those permitted under section 23-3-20.A.
(second single-family dwelling unit) in the Agricultural (A) Zone District." As of November
7, 2016, the date of complete application submittal, this code section allowed the
applicant to apply for a USR second home.
Per Section 23-4-600.A of the Weld County Code, amended by Ordinance 2019-02,
effective July 25, 2019, the lot is 2.26 acres, and does not meet the 2.5 acre minimum lot
size requirement for second homes in the A (Agricultural) Zone District. However, this
case is being processed under County Code that was in effect as the time the application
was deemed complete in 2016.
C. Section 23-2-220.A.3 -- The uses which will be permitted will be compatible with the
existing surrounding land uses.
The adjacent lands consist of residential lots located within Northwest Estates. Lee Lake
and the Larimer & Weld Canal are located directly to the north of the lot. There are three
(3) subdivision lots located adjacent to the site; all with residences. The applicant does
not own any other contiguous land. There are no USRs within one (1) mile of this site as
the surrounding area is residential and agricultural. While Northwest Estates 2nd Filing is
Zoned Agricultural, Northwest Estates 1st and 3rd Filings are zoned R-2 (Duplex
Residential) and most contain two (2) dwelling units on each lot.
USR16-0040 — Alkire
Page 3 of 9
The Weld County Department of Planning Services sent notice to eighteen (18)
surrounding property owners. Planning staff received two (2) letters in opposition to this
USR. Both letters were from surrounding property owners within 500 feet of the proposed
USR boundary and outlined concerns about potential occupants and that the accessory
structure may already be used as a rental unit, excessive traffic, security concerns,
livestock issues, potential businesses being operated on -site, lowering property values
and changing the neighborhood's single-family residential dynamic. Three (3) phone calls
were received with questions and concerns about the USR and two (2) of the calls came
from neighbors who submitted the letters in opposition. The conditions of approval and
Development Standards should adequately address these concerns. Additionally, no
businesses are currently permitted on -site or are part of this USR request.
D. Section 23-2-220.A.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 the Weld County Code and any other
applicable code provisions or ordinances in effect, or the adopted Master Plans of
affected municipalities.
This site is located within the three (3) mile referral radius of the Town of Severance,
Town of Timnath and Town of Windsor. Windsor returned a referral response dated
August 16, 2019 and indicated no concerns. Severance and Timnath did not respond.
The site is located within the Town of Severance, Town of Timnath and Town of Windsor
Coordinated Planning Agreement boundaries. Severance, Timnath and Windsor returned
signed Notice of Inquiry forms dated August 16, August 9 and August 12, 2019,
respectively and indicated no concerns.
The site is not located in a Regional Urbanization Area (RUA) or Urban Growth Boundary
(UGB) of a municipality.
E. Section 23-2-220.A.5 -- The application complies with Chapter 23, Articles V and XI, of
the Weld County Code.
The property is not located within the A -P (Airport) Overlay District, Geologic Hazard
Overlay District, a Special Flood Hazard Area or MS4 area.
Building Permits issued on the lot will be required to adhere to the fee structure of the
County -Wide Road Impact Fee Program, County Facility Fee and Drainage Impact Fee
Programs.
F. Section 23-2-220.A.6 -- The applicant has demonstrated a diligent effort to conserve
prime agricultural land in the locational decision for the proposed use.
The site is designated as "Other Land" per the 1979 Soil Conservation Service Important
Farmlands of Weld County Map. The proposed USR will not remove any agricultural land
from production. The subject site is not currently used for agricultural purposes as the lot
is located within a developed residential subdivision and is not suitable for agricultural
production.
G. Section 23-2-220.A.7 -- There is adequate provisions for the protection of the health,
safety, and welfare of the inhabitants of the neighborhood and County.
The Design Standards (Section 23-2-240, Weld County Code), Operation Standards
(Section 23-2-250, Weld County Code), Conditions of Approval and Development
Standards can ensure that there are adequate provisions for the protection of health,
safety, and welfare of the inhabitants of the neighborhood and County.

14. 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 person moving into these
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.
15. 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 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.
USR16-0040 — Alkire

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.

Dear Applicants:
I have scheduled a meeting with the Weld County Planning Commission on December 17, 2019, at 1:30
p.m. A subsequent hearing with the Board of County Commissioners will be held on January 22, 2020
at 10:00 a.m. Both hearings will be held in the Hearing Room, Weld County Administration Building,
1150 O Street, Greeley, Colorado. It is recommended that you and/or a representative be in
attendance to answer any questions the Planning Commission members or Board of County
Commissioners may have.
Colorado Revised Statute, C.R.S.24-65.5-103 (adopted as part of H.B.01-1088) requires notification of
all mineral estate owners 30 days prior to any public hearing. The applicant needs to provide the Weld
County Planning Department with written certification indicating the above requirement has been met.
A representative from the Department of Planning Services will be out to the property a minimum of ten
days prior to the hearing to post a sign, adjacent to and visible from a publicly maintained road
right-of-way which identifies the hearing time, date, and location. In the event the property is not
adjacent to a publicly maintained road right-of-way, one sign will be posted in the most prominent place
on the property and a second sign posted at the point at which the driveway (access drive) intersects a
publicly maintained road right-of-way.
The Department of Planning Services' staff will make a recommendation concerning this application to
the Weld County Planning Commission and will be included in the staff report one week prior to the
scheduled Planning Commission hearing. You may view the staff report at

The site is located on the east side of Lee Lake Avenue. The site contains one single family residence. A
blue outbuilding is located to the right of and farther back from the road compared to the residence. The
subject accessory structure to be converted into a second dwelling is located behind the blue outbuilding
and is difficult to observe from the roadway. The accessory structure is accessed by a narrow access
drive along the southern property line. There was existing and mature landscaping on -site including
several evergreen trees.
