Hello Chris and Weld County Commissioners .
I ' m writing to protest USR 19-0032 , Waste Connection ' s truck repair facility proposal for south western Weld county . This
use is not compatible with either current usages nor future uses of surrounding properties .
Specifically this proposal includes a nonnegotiable need to generate commercial/ industrial noise 22 hours a day . seven
days a week . In addition to Weld county rural residences , adjacent properties also include two oil and gas facilities , both
of which are quiet with little truck traffic . Also adjacent is Front Range Landfill , which operates multiple earth movers
during daylight hours . I live a half mile away and it' s loud ! At least they ' re not using dynamite and only work first shift .
Now this proposal makes the situation worse .
Broomfield County is currently in the middle of a PUD across the street and catty-corner from this site , consisting of 1200
residential homes ! Little do the future home owners realize that their properties will be subjected to unacceptable noise
levels during the day from landfill operations and all through the night by the repair facility . These are affordable housing
so only those who can ' t afford to live elsewhere will be forced to endure this until they can move to a more reasonable
location .
I ' ve enclosed the long range plan for this area from Broomfield Planning Department to substantiate my claims . See the
circled "4" on this map . which is the residential and open space areas to which I ' m referring . Also , the adjacent " mixed
use commercial " area west of Huron Street is currently being converted to all residential homes too ,
Thank you for your review !

LAND USE DESIGNATION DEFINITIONS
•
1 el II all I I
REGIONAL COMMERCIAL III worn Primary uses permitted within areas designated for Regional Commercial include regional shopping
11 �-
" ' " n areas discount / big - box retailers travel commercial uses such as gas stations and hotels , auto -
related uses , entertainment , and residential . These areas should allow for the most flexibility in
uses and site design to spur innovation and economic development at key regional nodes . Heavy
industry is not appropriate for these areas . Secondary uses allowed include Public / Quasi - Public
and Open Land uses .
COMMERCIAL
SHOP
Commercial is an appropriate designation for areas with retail , employment , commerce / service ,
0 � research and development , and office uses . These areas should offer high - quality design ,
attractive architecture , and landscaping with visual interest and should be compatible with
existing and proposed surrounding uses . They should be designed and developed / redeveloped
to support multinodal transportation and offer attractive gathering spaces ( public and private )
to enhance the working environment and add value to the community. Secondary uses allowed
include Public / Quasi - Public and Open Land uses .
MIXED - USE COMMERCIAl
■ Primary uses within Mixed - Use Commercial areas include commercial , employment and multifamily
■ or single - family attached residential uses . Single- family detached uses may be allowed in limited
rt.
areas through the PUD review and approval process . As a guide , no more than 30 percent of the
land area within the Mixed - Use Commercial district should be utilized for residential uses unless
approved through the PUD process . Residential built above first - floor retail should be considered
a bonus in excess of this maximum . Secondary uses allowed include Public / Quasi - Public and
Open Land uses .
INDUSTRIAL
Industrial areas are characterized by light and heavy industrial , office , manufacturing , research
; ; ; ; ; ; . . and development , warehousing , outside storage , and some commercial uses . These areas are
generally located close to regional transportation networks . Industrial uses should be adequately
buffered from incompatible uses . A stricter standard may be imposed for more intense industrial
uses . Secondary uses allowed include Public / Quasi - Public and Open Land uses .
To A ! T _ oRIEMTCf nr ici nDAACRIT
These areas are appropriate locations for a mix of uses that cater to the needs of area residents
• • and transit commuters . Examples of allowed uses include moderate and high - density residential ,
employment - generating uses , convenience and specialty commercial , and support commercial
uses . The configuration of uses within this district should support transit ridership , promote
walking and hiking for midday trips , link the citywide greenway system , and allow those who wish
to live and work in the same neighborhood to do so . The design and orientation of new buildings
should be pedestrian - oriented and special streetscape improvements should be considered to
create rich and enjoyable public spaces . A strong physical relationship between the commercial
and residential components to adjacent transit centers ( park - n - rides and commuter rail stops ) is
critical . Residential densities can be concentrated in multistory projects . Secondary uses allowed
include Public / Quasi - Public and Open Land uses .
Residential land encompasses neighborhoods covering a mix of housing types to meet both
current and future residents ' changing needs and conditions . This includes single - family homes ,
multifamily units , mobile homes , and senior communities within neighborhoods that vary in
character and density from rural or suburban to urban . Residential areas should have access
to recreation , education , and community facilities , as well as paved paths connecting to these
facilities and the local and regional trail system . The land use designation is intended to protect
existing residential areas while providing flexibility in the development of future residential
areas .
RURAL RESIDENTIA !
Rural Residential areas should include a mix of 1 - to 10 - acre lots with building sites clustered
to maximize open lands . Smaller lot sizes down to one - half acre may be appropriate for new
development with urban services .
3USINESS AND RESIDENTIAL TRANSITIONAL OVERLAY
Transitional Overlay areas encompass neighborhoods that are designated Rural Residential and
located 660 feet north of the centerline of West 144th Avenue between Lowell Boulevard and
Zuni Street . These areas are appropriate for office , personal service , and other residential and
nonresidential uses as identified in the Broomfield Municipal Code .
roo o
ymo

infrastructure such as water and wastewater treatment facilities , community and senior
centers , libraries , fire stations , schools , hospitals , churches , and other large public / quasi -
public facilities .

They serve a variety of functions including conserving and protecting natural , cultural , historic
or scenic resources ; providing opportunities for recreation ; shaping the pattern of growth and
development ; and preserving agricultural resources .
O pen Lands may encompass park and recreation areas , open space , and other open lands . Park
and recreation areas are the most intensively developed and used type of open lands . They may
contain open turf areas for passive recreation , playing fields , hard courts , picnic areas , restroom
facilities , and other improvements . Open space areas are parcels intentionally protected from
development and set aside for primarily unstructured recreation and the appreciation of natural
surroundings . Open space areas may contain trailheads and trails , fishing facilities , wildlife viewing
areas , and other facilities that support uses compatible with site resources and conditions . Other
open lands include golf courses , detention areas , and other facilities that are maintained by the
City and County of Broomfield . The Open Lands designation also includes conservation easement

3376 Longview Road
Erie , CO 80516
Please reference my prior letters dated July 13 , 2019 and July 28 , 2019 and my signature on the Petition circulated in my
neighborhood .
I am opposed to rezoning for USR 19 - 0032 and these are my concerns :
I live 1/ 2 mile east of the proposed site . We are a zoned rural /agricultural area dealing with the ever expanding landfill
and Broomfield is currently building 350 new homes . Waste Connections ' USR is asking Weld County to accept a zoning
change which is not compatible with what is left of our rural residential/agricultural area .
We have many small businesses in our area , none of which operate 22 hours a day . At a previous meeting it was stated
that we have a large presence of industrial businesses in our area . However, the following are the only industrial
businesses currently operating in our area :
1 . Front Range Landfill with mountains of dirt causing us to lose more of our scenic view on a daily basis . Also air
quality is negatively impacted by diesel fumes from equipment . ( USR would add 60 diesel engines ! )
2 . United Power Hub ( a very small , unmanned facility ) .
3 . Crestone Peak Resource Hub located on the northwest side of County Roads 6 and 7 .
4 . Extraction Oil and Gas — coyote trails which will be completed mid October .
As a member of RENA I am aware that Waste Connections and RENA have had several meetings and that some of our
concerns have been addressed . We appreciate the time spent in negotiation on all aspects .
But the facts still stand this USR Application is inconsistent with Weld County' s Agricultural Goals and Policies and now
we ask you for your support to deny USR 19 -0032 .
Thank you .

Why is This Facility Needed ?
• Weld County and the surrounding areas continue to
grow ( 1'\s' 3 °/o annualized growth )
• Existing hauling facility operation ( Erie ) is too small
to service the area
• Converting more fleet run Renewables . Requires
advanced shop design
Location Suitability
Surrounding land uses :
Front Range Landfill west and north of the site
Multi - well oil and gas lease south of the site
ENCANA to North
8 - acre parcel owned by United Power to North ;
Rural Residential ( 8 homes within '/ mile of property
boundary )
Proximity to where materials collected and ultimate

Hello Sherri
Just a couple of minor changes as follows
1 WCR 6 and 7 extend for many miles so I wanted to be clear on the applicable sections of these roads as it
relates to this agreement
2 I deleted Item 17 because our trucks have automatic idling shut down systems to prevent excessive idling
3 We'll include some language in the Screening Plan about future screening in the area of the existing clean
soil stockpile on Landfill Property, but as I indicate in the attached, the specifics is something the Landfill and
RENA can work out
Except for updating the Screening Plan to reflect Item 3 above, I believe we are at the finish line I am pleased
this worked out
By copy to Jason — please amend the Screening Plan first thing tomorrow Ta

WARNING This email is from outside of Waste Connections, Exercise caution
Mark,
Attached please find both the initial document and the one containing 'redlined' changes for your review and approval
Regarding our discussion about rotary-screw air compressors and keeping bay doors closed from 6PM-7AM
In the initial meeting with RENA members, it was relayed that the bays would be air conditioned, so the bay doors would
be closed except while moving vehicles in and out RENA has agreed to allow bay doors to be open during the day
There's no doubt you'll agree that people in their homes should be spared the sound of industrial impact wrenches all
night long While the new item#16 reduces the volume of air compressor noise, it does nothing to mitigate impact tool
noise They truly are entirely separate items other than that both deal with noise pollution
Also per our discussion, there is need for additional update to the Landscape Plan and acceptance of the redline
document prior to submittal to Weld County As soon as these documents are ready, I need to share them with RENA
members
On behalf of RENA, I thank you Jor partnering in reasonable negotiations and look forward to your confirmation of the
changes

From : RENA
To : Weld County Commissioners
Date : 10/ 2 / 2019
It' s not just this facility potentially going in , but everything else
happening in the area . Especially if the County approves this
request ( USR19 - 0032 ) , RENA believes that Weld County
transportation needs to also build these three things to help
control traffic in the area .
1 ) Install additional traffic controls with the posted speed
limit of 35mph on WCR 6 and WCR 7 in the affected
n eighborhoods .
2 ) Install at least four " keyhole " traffic- control islands — one
e ach at the entry points to the affected neighborhoods —
two on WCR 6 and two on WCR 7 — with appropriate
traffic control signage . Traffic - control islands to include
Neighborhood identification signage to be designed with
public input .
3 ) Install at least four permanent, electronic radar speed
signs — one each at the entry points to the affected
n eighborhoods — two on WCR 6 and two on WCR 7 .
RENA is requesting the County to do that work in the vicinity of
the landfill to further protect the health and welfare of Weld
County citizens .

Re : Noise Analysis for the Weld County Hauling Facility
Dear Ms . Edwards :
The following is a summary of the findings from a noise analysis of the Weld County Hauling Facility
( Proposed Project ) in Weld County, Colorado, located just outside the city limits of Erie, Colorado . The
purpose of the analysis is to evaluate potential noise effects on surrounding noise-sensitive land uses
from future construction of the Proposed Project, which would serve as a truck storage and
maintenance facility to support the adjacent Front Range Landfill . The following noise analysis addresses
future operations of the Proposed Project , noise sensitive sites ( receivers ) in the surrounding area , noise
measurement units and properties , applicable noise standards, results from a site field visit and noise
measurements , predictions of future noise levels with the Proposed Project in full operation , and
conclusions regarding the likelihood of future impacts .
Description of Future Operations
The Proposed Project is located along the west side of Weld County Road ( WCR ) 7 just south of WCR 6 .
The site is a 15 -acre parcel presently in agricultural use . The Proposed Project includes facilities where
trucks will be stored , fueled , and maintained . Proposed improvements include a 15 , 900 square foot
building on the east side of the property that will include 3 , 300 square feet of offices, 2 , 000 square feet
for a meeting room and parts storage, and a 9, 600 square foot maintenance shop . A fuel storage room ,
container shop, and truck wash will also be built on the eastern side of the site . Approximately 70 truck
parking spaces, a dumpster storage area , and a roll -off container storage area will be located on the
western side of the property ( see Figure 1 ) .
Employee traffic will access the site from a driveway on WCR 7, just south of WCR 6 . Employee parking
will be accommodated in a lot on the east side of the office/ maintenance building . It is anticipated that
employee traffic will amount to approximately 44 vehicles per hour during the AM and PM peaks . Traffic
volumes on WCR 7 are currently ( 2015 ) about 1, 000 vpd and projected to increase to about 6, 000 vpd
by 2030 . Commercial front loader trash trucks ( CFL Trucks ) will access the site from the west directly
into the Front Range Landfill and will not use WCR 7 . CFL Truck traffic will be dispersed throughout the
day and most activity related to lifting, lowering, and moving trash containers will be confined to the
western end of the property where dumpsters and roll-off containers are stored .

Noise-Sensitive Receivers
The primary noise-sensitive receivers that are exposed to noise from the Proposed Project are three
residences located on the east side of WCR 7, directly adjacent to the site. These residences are set back
150 feet or more to the east of WCR 7 . Approximately 12 other residences are scattered along WCR 7 to
the north and south . The Ranch Eggs Estates residential neighborhood is situated 2, 300 feet or more to
the south of the Proposed Project along 175th Avenue, WCR 4, and Johnson Lane, The Leisure Living
residential neighborhood is about 2, 700 feet to the northeast of the site along WCR 6. The remainder of
the Proposed Project is surrounded by vacant or industrial land . The Front Range Landfill borders the
site directly to the south and west and forms a significant berm along the south and west boundaries of
Proposed Project .
Noise Measurement Units and Properties
The relative loudness of sound or noise is described in units of decibels ( dB ) , a measure of sound
pressure on a logarithmic scale. A level of 0 dB is roughly equal to the threshold of human hearing, 55 -65
dB is the range of normal conversation, and a level of 120 dB is often considered the threshold of pain .
For community impact assessments, noise is typically averaged over a peak or representative period and
is expressed as an equivalent noise level ( Leq ) . An A-weighted filter is also used to correlate physical
noise levels with the frequency sensitivity of human hearing and the subjective response to noise . Thus,
community noise conditions are generally discussed in terms of average noise levels ( Leq ) in A -weighted
decibels (dBA) . Other statistics are also relevant to the noise environment, including the maximum
sound level (Lmax) and minimum sound level ( Lmin ) . These momentary maximum and minimum sound
levels are incorporated into the average levels and indicate the range of noise occurring during the
measurement period . The difference in daytime and nighttime noise is also important to the degree of
impact or annoyance experienced; noise is more disturbing at night than during the day. Noise metrics
have been developed to account for the varying noise levels over time to help assess community
response to day and nighttime levels .
Noise levels diminish over distance. Typically, a point source of noise will diminish by 6 dBA per doubling
distance, with no intervening terrain or barriers . Thus, a noise source that registers 60 dBA at 50 feet will
decline to 54 dBA at 100 feet, 48 dBA at 200 feet, and so on . Noise attenuation over distance is more
complex with variable terrain . Topographic features or actual barriers that block the line of sight will
further reduce sound over distance .
Applicable Standards
The Weld County Charter and County Code establishes noise standards in Chapter 14, Article I . Section
14-9-30 states that no person shall knowingly make, cause or permit to be made, or continue any
excessive noise, as defined in this Article . Section 14-9-40 establishes the standard shown in Table 1 for
each type of property during specific hours of the day . Any sound level which exceeds the level set for a
type of property at any time of day is prohibited .

Field Visit and Noise Measurements :
To establish baseline noise data, measurements were conducted by Ecosphere Environmental Services,
Inc. ( Ecosphere) . The measurements were collected at 50 feet from a Ca Truck while it performed
several full cycles of lifting and lowering a trash container, sounding its horn to signal a backup
maneuver, and revving its engine. This measurement was conducted to evaluate the magnitude of
typical noise levels from a CFL truck . Measurements were also collected at two locations considered to
represent ambient noise in the noise-sensitive areas .
Field noise measurements were collected with a Larson Davis Sound Track LxT1, Type I Integrating
Sound Level Meter (serial number 5742), which was calibrated before and after the measurement
sessions . The measurements were performed midday on Wednesday, July 8, 2019 . Winds were light
( less than 5 miles per hour), having little effect on sound propagation during the measurement period.
Table 2 summarizes the noise levels measured in the Project area, including measurement times and
locations, approximate distances to the sources , and results in terms of Leg, Lmax, and Lmin .

Measurement 1-CFL Truck at 50 Feet
Measurement 1 was conducted on the access road within the Proposed Project site ( see Photo 1 ) . The
n oise meter was placed 50 feet from a CFL Truck, which performed several full cycles of lifting and
lowering a trash container, sounding its horn , and revving its engine . Chart 1 illustrates the pattern of
n oise from these operations , with dBA values on the y- axis and time in seconds on the x-axis . The Leq
value of 75 . 8 dBA is the average noise level of all operations . The Lmin value of 57 . 4 dBA correspond to
times in the operational cycle when the truck engine and hydraulics are not under load . The Lmax value
of 91 . 1 dBA reflects maximum noise, for example from sounding the trucks backup horn , banging
containers on the ground in the lowering mode , or when the power cycle is under full load .

Measurement 2 - East side WCR 7 - Residential Receivers
Measurement 2 was conducted approximately 12 feet east of the northbound lane of WCR 7, in front of
three residences located 150 feet or more east of the roadway ( see Photo 1 ) . The Leq value of 68 . 1 dBA
is the average noise level during the measurement period , which primarily reflects traffic of WCR 7
including trucks and passenger vehicles . The Lmin value of 42 . 7 dBA correspond to times when no
vehicles passed the noise measurement site . The Lmax value of 84 . 2 dBA reflects maximum noise, which
most likely resulted from several large semi -trucks traveling at an estimated 40 miles per hour . This
measurement indicates ambient noise for those receivers most directly affected by the Proposed
Project . Ambient levels at these receivers would often include traffic noise but is assumed to be in the
43 -dBA range when no traffic is present .

Measurement 3 was conducted in the Ranch Eggs Estates residential neighborhood on 175th Avenue,
approximately 850 feet west of WCR 7 ( see Photo 3 ) . The Leq value of 48 . 6 dBA is the average noise
level during the measurement period , which included a low volume of traffic of 175th Avenue . The Lmin
value of 42 . 8 dBA correspond to times when no vehicles passed the noise measurement site . The Lmax
value of 66 . 0 dBA reflects maximum noise, which resulted from the occasional low speed vehicle passing
by the noise meter . This measurement indicates ambient noise in a typical , quiet residential
neighborhood , which is in the 43 -dBA range when no traffic is present .

Noise Modeling and Prediction of Future Noise
To estimate future noise resulting from the operation of the Proposed Project, the Federal Highway
Administration ' s ( FHWA' s ) Roadway Construction Noise Model ( RCNM ) was utilized . The RCNM is the
FHWA' s national model for the prediction of construction noise , based on actual sound - level
measurements from various equipment types taken during the Central Artery/Tunnel project conducted
in Boston , Massachusetts . The FHWA RCNM incorporates extensive construction equipment noise
database, where these parameters can be modified according to each user' s needs . Although the
Proposed Project is not a road construction project, the RCNM allows analysis of specific pieces of
equipment with defined multiple receptor locations, land - use type, and baseline noise levels .
Noise levels were calculated with the RCNM by specifying the construction equipment that would
operate when the Proposed Project is implemented . This would include two CFL trucks lifting, lowering,
and moving trash containers on the western half of the property where dumpsters and roll-off
containers are stored . It was assumed that these operations would occur during 5 - percent of the
facility' s daily operating hours . The measurement data from the CFL Truck were utilized in the RCNM to
evaluate future noise levels at the receivers adjacent the Proposed Project site on the east side of WCR
7 and in the Ranch Eggs Estate residential area . Table 3 shows the results .

Conclusions
The values in Table 3 show that noise levels at the residential receivers on the east side of WCR 7 would
experience average noise levels ( Leq ) of 55 . 0 dBA, which meets the Weld County standard for residential
land uses . It is likely that noise from adjacent WCR 7 would result in greater noise levels at these
receivers during much of time when traffic is present on the roadway . Noise levels in the Ranch Eggs
Estates neighborhood would be well below the Weld County standard of 55 dBA . It is likely that noise
levels resulting from the Proposed Project in this area would be lower in the Ranch Eggs Estates area
due to the berm created by the existing landfill , which would buffer or block noise from the site .
Please let me know if you have any questions or comments .

THIS AGREEMENT is made by and between the agencies and individuals involved in Life
Stories:
The purpose of this agreement is to enhance the ability of agencies,organizations,and
individuals to implement coordinated efforts in investigation of child abuse and neglect.
Adherence to these policies and procedures should not be Iconstrued as a creation of a
higher level standard of safety or care with respect to any civil claim or criminal matter.
Therefore,it is acknowledged that the UNDERSIGNED participating agencies and individuals
agree to the following philosophical and policy statements'supporting Life Stories:
We recognize the trauma that occurs to children and families involved in child abuse and
neglect. In order to reduce that trauma, Life Stories and key members of the
multidisciplinary team have developed a cooperative team approach to conducting child
abuse and neglect Investigations.
To facilitate this team approach,Life Stories enhances the cooperation and coordination of
those involved in the protection of children. Life Stories offers a safe,child focused
environment to centralize the investigation and prosecution efforts for child victims of
abuse.
Each of the undersigned agencies and individuals has specific responsibilities for the
protection of victims and the investigation of child abuse which are outlined in their
individual policy and procedures and any joint agreements among team members. Use of
Life Stories does not alter specific role responsibilities.
We believe that by functioning as a multi-disciplinary team,we are providing Weld County
children and families with a more positive approach that is effective in the timely resolution
of specific cases and the ultimate resolution of the larger social issue.
All parties are responsible for adhering to the Colorado Children's Code and the Colorado
Criminal Statutes.
All parties understand that this agreement,in no way,shall be construed to:
• limit law enforcement's authority to investigate reports of child abuse and
neglect;
• limit the Department of Human Services authority to assess,respond,and
investigate reports of child abuse and neglect nor limit DHS authority to make all
subsequent decisions on behalf of children placed in protective custody;
• dictate medical practitioner's procedures for medical examinations or limit their
authority or responsibility for medical care.
