Yosemite Street, Englewood, Colorado 80110 Moved by Percy Hiatt that the following resolution be introduced for passage by the Weld County Planning Commission: Be it Resolved by the Weld County Planning Commission that the appli- cation for rezoning from A ( Agricultural District) to C (Commercial: nit Dev District) covering the.following described property in Weld Cty, Colorado, to-wit: be recommend (favorably) (t Iidn%ZXjj ) to the Board of County Commissioners for the following reasons: 1. It is the opinion of the Planning Commission that the applicant has complied with Section 8,3 of the Weld County Zoning Resolution which states: "Request for rezoning of tracts within Weld County should be supported by detailed and substantial evidence that such rezoning is necessary. Recent findings and oral statements by petitioners should show very clearly that either the original zoning was faulty or that changing conditions in the area now justify a new classification. Without the presentation of such supporting documentation, the Planning Commission should not recommend a change of zoning, " It is the opinion of the Planning Commission that the applicant has demonstrated that changing conditions in the area now justify a new zoning classification, Motion seconded by: Bette Koiu tz Vote: For Passage Percy Hiatt Against Passage Ben Nix Chuck Carlson Harry Ashley Bette Kountz Irma White The Chairman declared the Resolution passed and ordered thatacertified copy be for- warded with the file of this case to the Board of County Commissioners for further proceedings. CERTIFICATION OF COPY I, Shirley A. Phillips , Recording Secretary of the Weld County Planning Commission, do hereby certify that the above and foregoing Resolution is a true copy of the Resolution of the Planning Commission of Weld County, Colorado, adopted on July 5, 1977 and recorded in Book No. V of the proceedings cF the said Planning Commission.

Resolution July 5, 1977 Additionally Section 8. 3 states, "There must be definite proof that the area requested for change has unique characteristics which distinguish it from surrounding lands and thus make its rezoning essential. " Again it is the opinion of the Planning Commission that the applicant has demonstrated that the property in question has physical limitations which distinguishes it from surrounding productive agricultural lands. This assertion is substantiated by the Soil Conservation Service who indicated: "The soils are classified as Weld loam, Kim loam, and Wiley-Colby complex found on a 1-5% slope. This has an irrigated capability of Class II and III . The soils, however, have a fluctuating water table due to poor surface drainage. The area is bounded by seepy irrigation canals and in general, does not produce well. " They concluded by indicating, " . • . due to its relative small size, its present low productivity and the compatability with the adjoining property, we would have no objection to the zoning change and proposed use. " 2. The rezoning request complies with the policies contained in the Weld County Comprehensive Plan relating to commercial development . The policy utilized to guide commercial development of this nature states : "Commercial development designed to serve the agricultural base of the county should be located wherever practical within a municipality; however, whenever distance from the municipality makes this an impractical or unprofitable establishment of such commercial service, facilities within easy access to each agricultural area will be encouraged. " It is the opinion of the Planning Commission that the applicant has demonstrated that it is impractical to locate the proposed agri- business center catering to the needs of area farmers and ranchers within an existing municipality.

Weld County Planning Department, Greeley, Colorado, 80631 ATTN: Mr. Thomas E. Honn, Zoning Adminstrator Dear Mr. Honn, June 1, 1977 Transmitted herewith is the application of Lovement Investment Company for the rezoning of thirty-five acres of land on the Southeast corner of State Highway 66 and Interstate 25 from A-1 (Agriculture) to C (Commercial PUD) . The proposed development is known as The Farmers' Mart and is designed as an agribusiness center catering to the needs of area farmers and ranchers. Also included with the rezoning request is a check in the amount of $275.00 for processing of the planned unit development plan and preliminary plat. Fifteen (15) copies of the Preliminary PUD Plan, and all information on the plan is applicable to the Preliminary Plat. Required soils reports were filed with Weld County when the sketch plan was transmitted to you for comment on February 16, 1977. We have reviewed your comments in the letter from your office dated March 11, 1977, and all objective requests have been included in the enclosed plan. Where we disagree with you on subjective matters we will be pleased to discuss our differences with the Planning Commission at the time of presentation. Also included are a utilities sign-off sheet, list of addresses of neighboring landowners, a current treasurer's certificate and the application form for a preliminary plat. In your procedural outline for rezoning cases, you put forth eight questions pertaining to the proposed rezoning. These eight questions are answered as follows: 1. Is it impractical, impossible, or undesireable to develop the land according to is current zoning classification? The property has a fairly high water table and poor permeability as discussed in the soils report. In addition, the soil is alkaline and row crops do not do well in it. The property is bounded on the east by the Sekich Deere agency, and the westerly portion of the south boundary contains a private residence. With the irrigation canal along the north and west, the property is difficult to farm and of marginal agricultural value. It is not large enough to accept more than two cow-calf units and obviously too small to farm profitably in dry land crops. Therefore we would contend that the property is impractical to be put to use as an agricultural property. 2. Would the proposed rezoning benefit the entire County by allowing a typical development which is needed and cannot locate in other parts of the County? The entire county would benefit by virtue of the increased assessment base of the commercial use over the agricultural use which the property now has. More significantly, with the need to conserve energy Farmers' Mart will provide a convenient business center for area farmers and ranchers and will help preclude their driving long distances to obtain agriculturally minted products and services such as will be avaialbel at Farmers Mart. -1- 3. Would the proposed rezoning benefit lands adjoining the area requesting the change? The property to the north is a large, working farm. Rezoning of the subject property would not affect that property, and would not serve as any precedent for rezoning of it for uses other than agriculture. The low intensity uses proposed for the southern quarter of the property would not affect the Rademacher home or farm, and landscaping will be provided for their benefit along the south boundary of the property. Rezoning will probably be beneficial to the Sekich property to the east in that additional business will tend to generate new customers for the Deere agency and cafe. We do not feel that the proposed rezoning is of great enough significance from a land use basis as to serve as the catalyst for rezoning requests from adjacent property owners. 4. What features apply to the property requesting rezoning which make it illogical to rezone this tract and not to rezone in a similar manner surrounding properties which may have like land use characteristics? Properties to the west are buffered from the subject property by Interstate Highway 25, and have no characteristics similar to the sub- ject property. As mentioned above, the property to the north is a working farm also without the same physical properties or limitations of the subject property. To the south along the frontage road is a single family home recently built by the Rademachers which effectively serves as a barrier to further commercial usage to the south. To the east the property is bordered entirely by zoned commercial land. 5. Why are other areas in the County already zoned according to the requested classification unsuitable for the development which is proposed? There may be other areas in the county suitable for the agribusiness center proposed as Farmers' Mart. Lovemont Investment Company, however, feels that the subject property is located very well for such agribusiness and that the location enhances the probability of success for the property to serve the farmers and ranchers of the area. It is always difficult to attempt to say why other properties have not developed - the reasons range from inability to obtain financing or to obtain utilities through a lack of imagination or desire on the part of the owners. Lovemont Investment Company is capable of and prepared to develop the subject property in a responsible and pleasant manner. 6. What proof of evidence is available that the original zoning is faulty or that changing conditions in the area justify rezoning at this time? With the developed Sekich property to the east and the Rademacher home to the south, the elder Rademachers who sold the property to Lovemont Investment Company no doubt found the property difficult to farm, and economically unfeasible to farm. The property had been cut into with the interstate off-ramp and frontage road and the elevated irrigation ditch on the north and west, along with irrigation canals across it. Aside from the difficulty of farming the property, it is alkaline and a low yield pro ducer and should probably not have been zoned agriculture in the first place. Development of the Sekich property and the Rademacher home have effectively blocked this property from expanding into enough size to become a working farm, and these changed conditions in the neighborhood have limited the viability of this property to be an effective agricultural producer, and therefore the property can be put to more productive use if developed in accordance with the plan submitted for Farmers' Mart. 7. Please submit economic or other evidence that the area covered in the pet- ition needs additional commercial or business in the area. Lovemont Investment Company has had several requests from agriculturally related business during the past two years for business locations at the subject property. They have admittedly been prospecting for such businesses, and the response has been very good. The design standards for Farmers' Mart have been based upon potential user requests. Users will be firmed up when the rezoning and subdivision issues have been resolved. Even more significantly, however, the owners recognize that if a property is rezoned in Weld County and does not develop, the County Commissioners can move to rezone it after a six months (plus extensions) period of time. Lovemont Investment Company is prepared to invest a large amount of money in the development of this property, and their committment to such development is a major economic reason in support of its validity as a commercial site. 8. Give some evidence of the proposed business or commercial enterprises that are to locate in the requested area and a tentative time schedule for construction. We cannot disclose absolute users at this time, but all users will have to conform to the PUD requirements as described in the Farmers' Mart preliminary plan. Development of the road system and water lines will begin no later than six months from the approval and recording of the final plat. The final plat and plan will be submitted as soon as is reasonably possible after approval of the rezoning and preliminary plan. We feel that the energy crisis must bring about a rethinking of many planning ideas. There has admittedly been a time when "regional" centers were desireable as the business centers of a community. Regional centers, however, are entirely automobile oriented and nobody cared how far one had to drive to get to them. With new demands on energy, modern planners are again thinking of neighborhood or community centers - smaller and more convenient for area residents. We also think of land conservation, and feel that poor agricultural ground should be used in a manner that makes sense and not just left as non-producing land because it is convenient to do so. We can see no agricultural future for this piece of ground, and feel it is in the best interests of the County, the owner and area residents that the property be developed in a controlled manner as indicated in the Farmers Mart planned unit development. We request that the appropriate reviews be made as soon as is reasonably pos- sible, and that we may appear before the Planning Commission in the near future with our request. I will be happy to answer any questions you might have, or provide additional information. Sincerely, Landayide, Inc. , Raymond C.

The soils are classified as Weld loam, Kim loam, and Wiley- Colby complex found on a 1 -5o slope. This has an irrigated capability of Class II and III . The soils, however, have a fluctuating water table due to poor surface drainage. The area is bounded by seepy irrigation canals and in general , does not produce well . 2. The soils have only slight limitations for roads, foundations and basements , and are rated as slight to moderate limitations for septic tanks. 3. There are no major irrigation systems involved. However, several private laterals traverse the property and should be either lined with concrete or put in underground pipelines . 4. The area is not affected by a flood plain. In conclusion due to its relative small size, its present low productivity and the compatibility with the adjoiing property, we would have no objection to the zoning change and proposed use.

We would like to request that due consideration be given the following comments concerning access, drainage, and noise pollution. Access - S.H. 66: The location as shown on the plat is acceptable to the Division. We will require the construction of acceleration/deceleration lanes. This should be at the expense of the developer. Attached is a sketch of our requirements for access off of S.H. 66. Materials and design shall conform to the Division's standards and specifications. Access - Southeast Frontage Road: The location shown on the plat is not acceptable, as it encroaches into an area in which the Division has title to access control . The Division has access control from the angle point in our right of way (near the proposed approach) northeast to the angle point at S.H. 66, thence easterly 500 feet. The Division will have no objections to an access off of the frontage road south of our access-controlled area. There may be a conflict with the irrigation system located in this immediate area. When the Division constructed this portion of I-25, we provided a 30" x 301 ' siphon with a concrete inlet. Materials supplied with this request do not indicate what method for handling the irrigation system will be implemented. If the access is to be near the irrigation outlet structure, consideration should be given to keeping it from being a hazard to the traveling public. Issuance of a Driveway Permit will be required 90 days prior to construction of accesses. Application should be addressed to Mr. David N. Fraser, District Maintenance Superintendent, P. 0. Box 850, 1420 Second Street, Greeley, Colorado 80631 . The application should be accompanied by four copies of a construction drawing showing detail of design and construction as well as the general location in relation to physical reference points (in this case, distance along roadways from the interchange of S.H. 66 and I-25) . r • Weld County I 25 & SH 66 Farmers ' Mart DOH FILE 04-41 MR. KEN MCWILLIAMS June 23, 1977 Page Two Drainage: The Division is presently using the ditch through Lots 2, 3, 7, and 11 as a means of removing storm runoff from our right of way. Abandonment of this system will require an alternate method for handling our runoff which has historically used this system. Access design shall include the method of handling highway drainage. Noise Pollution: Since the property is located at the intersection of two highways with an overpass , the noise emitted from them is greater than that of a level roadway. Developers should give consideration to providing adequate noise setback from the roadways. As a general rule, this setback for a commercial building would be 150 to 200 feet from the centerline of S.H. 66 and the southeast ramp of I-25. Noise berms or walls, in order to be effective, need to be built to approximately eight feet above the level of the roadway. However, this would not be practical due to the elevated roadways. Another recourse would be to use noise-insulated walls and windows in the construction of buildings abutting the highways. Thank you for allowing the Division to make comment on the above.

We have attempted to comply with that promise. Please do not hesitate to contact me if there is any more information you would like, or points you would like to discuss. Sincerely, L daide, Inc. , a , / Raymond C. Koernig, "Jr. , President cc: Mr. Ken McWilliams CONCLUSIONS The site Is suitable for commercial agribusiness development . No evidence of geological hazards or unusual subsoil conditions exist at the site. Both spread footings and straight-shaft piers are suitable foundation systems. SCOPE This report covers a preliminary soil and geological investigation for the proposed Farmers Mart Development , located at Interstate 25 and Colorado State Highway 66 , Weld County, Colorado. The report presents the general subsoil conditions , geologic se/ting , possible foundation types , water table conditions , percolation rates , and other pertinent details. PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION The proposed development is to be divided into three areas for use as commercial -agricultural related business . We expect structures to be small to medium sized , having one to two floors . The structures will generally be lightly to moderately loaded. SITE CONDITIONS The subject site encompasses 31 acres and is a portion of the NW,'; of Sec. 26 , T3N , R6814. The property is bounded to the west by Interstate 25 and to the north by Colorado State Highway 66. Both highways are built up above the elevation of the site. Foster Reservoir is located approxi- mately 1/3 mile to the southwest. St. Vrain Creek is located approximately 1-2/3 miles to the southeast. 1 - o - At the time of our investigation , the subject site was cultivated in corn and alfalfa. The northeast corner is being used as a storage area for a commercial building located Immediately east of the property. The ground surface is undulating with a slight slope downward to the southwest. The maximum difference in elevation across the site is on the order of 25 feet . Irrigation ditches border the property to the north and west and cross the site from west to east . The irrigation ditches were dry at the time of our investigation. GEOLOGIC SETTING The site is situated on a relatively flat terrace approximately 200 feet above St. Vrain Creek, located to the southeast . The subsoils revealed in our exploratory borings consisted of a relatively thin layer of sandy clay overlying claystone-sandstone-slltstone bedrock of the Laramie formation . Surface evidence indicates no apparent conditions which would constitute a major geologic hazard. We do not anticipate any unusual problems associated with the site geology or subsoil condi - tions , provided normal good engineering practices are followed during planning and construction. Based upon the United States Geological Survey hydrologic studies , the site is not considered a flood-prone area ; however , increased runoff associated with parking areas , streets and buildings should be considered in the overall drainage scheme of the area. Buildings should be designed for seismic forces associated with the Uniform Building Code , Zone I . There are no commercial mineral deposits at the site within economical extraction from the surface. - 3 - SUBSOIL CONDITIONS Subsoil conditions were investigated by drilling 3 exploratory holes at the locations shown on Fig. 1 . The existing crops and surface condi - tions prevented drilling of additional exploratory holes at this tine. Generally , the subsoil conditions consisted of IOk to ll feet of soft to stiff , sandy. clay overlying very hard claystonc- sandstone-silistone bedrock to the depth Investigated , 20 feet. Swell -consolidation tests indicate that the upper clays possess a nil to very low swell potential and will consolidate slightly to excessively under loading. The lower bedrock also possesses a nil to low swell potential . Swell-consolidation test results are presented In Figs . 3 through 5. Free water was encountered from 3 to 10 feet. Jeep across the site. We expect the free water level to experience some fluctuation with the amount of irrigation. FOUNDATION TYPES Considering the subsoil conditions and the proposed building types , we believe that both spread footing and straight-shaft pier foundation systems are suitable. Footings placed on the upper clays may be designed for soil pressures ranging from 1 ,000 to 3 ,000 psf . Straight-shaft piers drilled Into the lower bedrock will have end pressures ranging from 35 ,000 to 60,000 psf. Skin friction of the portion of pier in bedrock is generally taken as lOz of the end pressure . Due to the presence of free water, the pier holes will have to be cased. Deep basement construction is not recorronended because of the shallow water table. If basement construction is desirable, lower floor levels •I - a - must be protected by a subdraln system. SLOPE STABILITY We do not expect heavy cut or fill to take place at this site. For cut slopes , a slope of 2: 1 (2 horizontal and 1 vertical ) should not be exceeded. For deep fill , the same configuration should be maintained. The upper clay soils are subject to erosion and all slopes should be protected by vegetation. PERCOLATION TESTS Percolation tests were conducted at the site in accordance with the regulations of the Department of Health , Education and Welfare . Percola- tion test results are presented in Table II . Test results indicate a slow average percolation rate of 90 min ./Inch. This can be expected with the relatively impervious upper clay soils. The presence of shallow free water will also pose a problem to leaching field construction. We recom- mend a self-contained sewage system for the development instead of individual leaching field septic systems. MISCELLANEOUS This is a preliminary report covering the general feasibility of the site for commercial development. After the type of development and the location of the buildings has been determined , a final subsoil investiga- tion should be conducted in order to define specific foundation types , iI - 5 - I design criteria , and other pertinent details.

July 21 , 1977 CENTRAL SEWAGE SYSTEM STUDY FOR FARMERS ' MART The following is a report concerning the feasibility and economics of a central sewage system and treat- ment plant for Farmers ' Mart . Farmers ' Mart is located in the Southeast Quadrant of Interstate Highway 25 and State Highway 66 in Weld County. The project is located a considerable distance from the nearest sewer district and treatment facility. The proposed usage of the site is for agricultural business facilities . At this time , the specific sewage requirements for the individual tenants are not known. A preliminary layout for a central sewage system has been designed by this office , and tie cost break- down , totaling approximately $78 , 000 . 00 is enclosed . For the number of proposed users on this 35 acre site , the cost to the developer of providing a central sewage system is prohibitive . Percolation tests were performed on the site by Chen and Associates , Inc . Due to the relatively (1 ) impervious upper clay soils , part of the site indicated a slow percolation test . At another location on the site , the percolation rate was 30 minutes per inch. At the time of construction , percolation tests will he required for each in- dividual site . If the percolation rate does not meet the requirements of the Department of Health , it is recommended that a self-contained sewage system be developed for that particular site . Due to the fact that the cost is prohibitive for a central sewage treatment , and because of the problem of disposing of the effluent from the treatment plant , it appears that on-lot septic systems are the only feasible solution .
