Case Summary:
The applicant is proposing a laydown yard for oil and gas. Oil rigs and other oilfield service equipment
would be stored on this site. There will be no cleaning, maintenance, repairs, or welding performed on the
rigs stored on this site. The hours of operation are proposed to be 7:00 am to 6:00 pm Monday thru
Saturday. There will be no employees. Two or less people will use this site daily, except if a large oil rig or
other large equipment is being moved, then there would be 12-15 people. This is rare as equipment of this
size can remain on the site for months or years. A six-foot tall chain link fence with slats is proposed and
will surround the site. There is a transmission line that parallels CR 24 and access to the site will cross
under the transmission lines. There is a condition of approval for the applicant to obtain permission to cross
under the overhead transmission lines.
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:
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 22-2-10.G.2 `A.Policy 7.2. Conversion of agricultural land to nonurban residential,
commercial and industrial uses should be accommodated when the subject site is in an area
that can support such development, and should attempt to be compatible with the region."
USR19-0047-SS Storage Hudson, LLC c/o Steve Sharp
Page 2 of 10
The laydown yard will be a 10 acre portion of a+1- 112 acre parcel. It is proposed to be adjacent
to the adjacent USR owned by the same property owner. The location of the laydown yard is
on the northern side of the subject property and has agricultural buffer on the east and south
sides. Access is off County Road 24 which is the northern property line.
Section 22-6-20.C.1. -ECON.Policy 3.1. states"County activities and regulation should protect
the rights of private property owners and the public health, safety and welfare, recognizing that
these basic rights and protections allow the free market to prosper and grow the local
economy."
This proposal has been reviewed by the appropriate referral agencies and it has been
determined that the attached Conditions of Approval and Development Standards ensure that
there are adequate provisions for the protection of the health, safety and welfare of the
inhabitants of the neighborhood and county.
B. Section 23-2-220.A.2. -- The proposed use is consistent with the intent of the A (Agricultural)
Zone District Section 23-3-40.A.2 of the Weld County Code provides for Mineral Resource
Development Facilities, Oil and Gas Support and Service including a laydown yard as a Use

Per the Weld County Comprehensive Plan, Chapter22,Article II, Section 22-2-10.D: Extraction
of natural resources is an important part of the economy of the County. Such extraction
operations should minimize the impacts to agricultural lands and agricultural operations. And
Per the Weld County Code, Chapter 23, Article III, Division 1, Section 23-3-10. Intent:
Agriculture in the County is considered a valuable resource which must be protected from
adverse impacts resulting from uncontrolled and undirected business, industrial and residential
land uses. The A(Agricultural)Zone District is established to maintain and promote agriculture
as an essential feature of the County. The A (Agricultural) Zone District is intended to provide
areas for the conduct of agricultural activities and activities related to agriculture and
agricultural production without the interference of other, incompatible land uses. 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. The A (Agricultural) Zone District regulations are established to
promote the health, safety and general welfare of the present and future residents of the
County.
This USR is consistent with this section by supporting the extraction of natural resources and
minimizing the impact to agricultural land through consolidating the storage of oil and gas
equipment that is not in use.
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 pastures and crops with four residences within 450 feet of the
site. The closest residence is approximately 95 feet northeast of the site.
There are four (4) USRs within one mile of this site. MUSR13-0021 for a church is located
south of the site, USR-1236 for a powerline is located north and adjacent to the site, USR18-
0007 for a greater than 12-inch natural gas pipeline is located east of the site, and 1 MUSR17-
11-0013 for truck parking and repair is west of and adjacent to the site on lands owned by the
same property owner.
The Weld County Department of Planning Services has received one letter from a surrounding
property owner which outlined concerns about lights, access point, and traffic. Per an email
dated September 3, 2019, the applicant's representative addressed the questions and
concerns of the surrounding property owner.
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

code provisions or ordinances in effect, or the adopted Master Plans of affected municipalities.
The site is located within a three (3) mile referral area of the Town of Hudson. The Town of
Hudson did not submit any referral agency comments. The site is not within an
Intergovernmental Agreement Area.
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 within the Geologic Hazard Overlay District, a Special Flood Hazard Area

27. 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.
28. 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.

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.
