COMMENTS
GENERAL PROJECT INFORMATION/LOCATION
Project description: A Site Specific Development Plan and Use by Special Review Permit for any Use
permitted as a Use by Right, an Accessory Use or a Use by Special Review Permit in the Commercial or
Industrial Zone Districts (truck and equipment parking and storage for concrete business) provided that the
property is not a lot in an approved or recorded subdivision plat or lots parts of a map or plan filed prior to
adoption of any regulations controlling subdivisions in the A (Agricultural) Zone District.
This project is south of and adjacent to CR 86 and is west of and adjacent to CR 19.
Parcel number 070504100022.
Access is from CR 86.
ACCESS
Weld County Public Works has reviewed the application materials related to access, and the proposed
access on CR 86 meets the applicable requirements for access in Weld County Code.
Per Chapter 12, Article 5, Section 12-5-30, an Access Permit is required for access to Weld County
maintained roadways. We strongly encourage you to discuss your access with Public Works prior to laying
out your site plan to ensure the approved accesses are compatible with your layout. Per Chapter 12, Article
V, Section 12-5-30. F, when feasible, there shall be no net increase in the number of accesses to a public
road. Minimum access spacing widths are shown in Weld County Code Appendix Table 12A-2. Please refer
to Chapter 12 of the Weld County Code for more information regarding access.
ROADS AND RIGHTS -OF -WAY
County Road 86 is a gravel road and is designated on the Weld County Functional Classification Map (Code
Ordinance 2017-01) as a(n) local road, which requires 60 feet of right-of-way. The applicant shall delineate
on the site map or plat the future and existing right-of-way and the physical location of the road. If the right-
of-way cannot be verified it shall be dedicated. Pursuant to the definition of setback in the Weld County
Code, Chapter 23, Article III, Section 23-3-50, the required setback is measured from the future right-of-
way line. Be aware that physical roadways may not be centered in the right-of-way. This road is maintained
by Weld County.
County Road 19 is a gravel road and is designated on the Weld County Functional Classification Map (Code
Ordinance 2017-01) as a(n) local road, which requires 60 feet of right-of-way. The applicant shall delineate
on the site map or plat the future and existing right-of-way and the physical location of the road. If the right-
of-way cannot be verified it shall be dedicated. Pursuant to the definition of setback in the Weld County
Code, Chapter 23, Article III, Section 23-3-50, the required setback is measured from the future right-of-
way line. Be aware that physical roadways may riot be centered in the right-of-way. This road is maintained
by Weld County.
County Road 86 is a section line road. Section line right-of-way does not exist in all sections in Weld County
and should be verified before a decision to utilize it is made. Weld County commonly refers to these
locations as "Non -Maintained Section Line Right -of -Way." The existence of a physical road does not imply
public right-of-way and the road may be located on private property. All right-of-way should be verified and
physical roads located in relationship to the public right-of-way to ensure trespassing does not occur. The
applicant shall verify the existing right-of-way and the documents creating the right-of-way and this
information shall be noted on the site plan or plat. The applicant shall delineate on the site map or plat the
existing right-of-way and physical location of existing or proposed roads. If the right-of-way cannot be
verified it shall be dedicated or an adequate easement between property owners shall be provided.
Pursuant to the definition of setback in the Weld County Code, Chapter 23, Article III, Section 23-3-50, the
required setback is measured from the future right-of-way line. Be aware the physical roadway(s) may not
be centered in the right-of-way. This road is NOT maintained by Weld County.
Per Chapter 12, Article 4, Section 12-4-30.B, a Weld County Right -of -Way Use Permit is required for any
project that will be occupying, constructing or excavating facilities within, and/or encroaching upon, any
County rights -of -way or easement. Right -of -Way Use Permit instructions and application can be found at
https:Ilwww,weldgov.comldepartmentslpublicworks/permits/.
Weld County will not replace overlapping easements located within existing right-of-way or pay to relocate
existing utilities within the County right-of-way.
TRAFFIC
No traffic counts in this area.
The traffic information submitted with the application materials indicated that there will be approximately 2
roundtrips per day with occasional trucks that have 14' dump -style trailers.
TRACKING CONTROL POLICY
Per Chapter 12, Appendix 12A.10.1, traffic volumes to the proposed facility may require the installation of
a tracking control device and/or a minimum of four inches of compacted recycled asphalt or aggregate road
base. Tracking control is required to prevent tracking from the site onto public roadways. Temporary
Tracking Control shall be used during construction unless permanent tracking control is installed ahead of
construction activities. Recycled concrete is not allowed in County right-of-way. Tracking control devices
can be double cattle guards or rip rap (6" washed rock). Tracking control for unmaintained public right-of-
way is required just prior to entering publicly maintained roadways. A variance request for alternatives to
the tracking control requirement can be submitted to Public Works for review and consideration.
Less than 20 passenger vehicle round trips/day, no upfront tracking control requirements.
ROAD MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT
Public Works is requiring Road Maintenance Agreement including, but is not limited to, dust control and
damage repair to specified haul routes.
Improvements/Road Maintenance Agreement: An example agreement is available at:
https://www.weldgov com/UserFiles/Servers/Server 6/File/Departmerits/Publie/020Works/DevelopmentR
eviewlsprusr.pdf. It will detail the approved haul route(s), outline when off -site improvements will be
triggered, and include a maintenance agreement for the haul routes. Possible mitigations included in the
road maintenance agreement may include but are not limited to: dust control, specified haul routes, damage
repairs, and future improvement triggers.
DRAINAGE REQUIREMENTS
This area IS within a Non -Urbanizing Drainage Area: Non -Urbanizing Drainage Areas typically require
detention of runoff from the 1 -hour, 100 -year, storm falling on the developed site and release of the detained
water at the historic runoff rate of the 1 -hour, 10 -year storm falling on the undeveloped site for NON -
URBANIZING areas.
Detention Pond summarized in a Drainage Report:
The applicant has submitted a drainage narrative stating that the site meets drainage exception 23-12-
30.F.1.a.10 for NON -URBANIZING areas where the total project stormwater runoff does not exceed 10
cubic feet per second (cfs) for the 1 -hour, 100 -year storm event. This exception is met to be applied to the
whole parcel for the USR as the USR extends to the boundaries of the parcel. A final drainage report and
detention pond design completed by a Colorado Licensed Professional Engineer is required prior to
recording the USR map. The drainage report must include a certification of compliance stamped and signed
by the PE. A Certification of Compliance form can be found on the Public Works Development Review
website. General drainage report checklist is available on the engineering website. More complete
checklists are available upon request.
Historic Flows:
The applicants will be required to maintain the historic drainage flows and run-off amounts that exist from
the property.
GRADING PERMIT
A Weld County Grading Permit will be required if disturbing more than 1 acre. Grading Permit applications
are accepted after the planning process is complete (plan recorded). An Early Release Request Form may
be entertained only after the applicant, Public Works and Planning Department have reviewed the referral
and surrounding property owner comments. The Early Release Request may or may not be granted
depending on referral comments and surrounding property owner concerns. Contact an Engineering
representative from the Public Works for more information.
