TO: Angela Snyder, Planning Services
FROM: Hayley Balzano, Public Works
DATE: November 26, 2018
SUBJECT: COZ18-0005 King
The Weld County Department of Public Works has reviewed this proposal. Staff comments made during
this phase of the application process may not be all-inclusive, as other issues may arise during the
remaining application process.
COMMENTS:
Parcel(s): 070510200023
The project proposes to: Change of Zone from PUD (Planned Unit Development) to the A (Agricultural)
Zone District
ACCESS:
Weld County Public Works has contacted Mr. King to discuss the location of the proposed access. Mr. King
indicated that they are planning on accessing the site somewhere around the middle of the northern
property line. This would place the access roughly 800 feet east of County Road 19 on County Road 84. At
this time this location meets spacing requirements for a local road. There is an existing irrigation ditch
access on the site approximately 180 feet south of County Road 84 on County Road 13.
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. For shared
accesses (Weld County Code Appendix 12A.3.5), Public Works strongly recommends the property owner
establish an access road maintenance agreement so future owner of the properties will be aware of their
requirements for shared maintenance of the access road. This is not a requirement for the recorded
exemption but is recommended to avoid property owner conflicts in the future. Please refer to Chapter 12
of the Weld County Code for more information regarding access.
ROADS AND RIGHT-OF-WAY:
County Road 13 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 Ill, 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 84 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 Ill, 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.
Per Chapter 12, Article IV, 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://www.weldgov.com/departments/public works/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.
CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL:

COZ18-0005 King
Environmental Health Services has reviewed this proposal for a Change of Zone from
the PUD (Planned Unit Development) Zone District to the A (Agricultural) Zone District
The application states that an individual well will provide water and an on -site
wastewater treatment system (OWTS) will provide sewage disposal.
We recommend the following appear as notes on the Change of Zone plat:
1. Water service may be obtained by an individual well.
2. The parcel is currently not served by a municipal sanitary sewer system.
Sewage disposal may be by septic systems designed in accordance with the
regulations of the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment,
Water Quality Control Division and the Weld County Code in effect at the time
of construction, repair, replacement, or modification of the system.
3. Activity or use on the surface of the ground over any part of the OWTS must be
restricted to that which shall allow the system to function as designed and which
shall not contribute to compaction of the soil or to structural loading detrimental
to the structural integrity or capability of the component to function as designed.

WELD COUNTY CASE NUMBER: COZ18-0005
LOCATION: South of and adjacent to CR84, East of and adjacent to CR19
DESCRIPTION: Change of zone from PUD to the A Zone District
DATE: November 16th, 2018
PFA COMMENTS
The proposed lot falls within the jurisdictional boundaries of Poudre Fire Authority and all development
is subject to compliance with the 2015 International Fire Code (IFC) as locally adopted or amended by
PFA and Weld County. PFA has minor comments regarding rezoning; however, the subsequent lot
development shall comply with the fire code requirements in place at time of permitting and, please
note that PFA is expecting to adopt the 2018IFC in January 2019.
>The following Fire department comments are provided so as to enable the applicant to submit a
successful site plan at time of building permit. These comments shall remain active until acknowledged
and resolved by the applicant.
PREMISE IDENTIFICATION: ADDRESS POSTING & WAYFINDING
The proposed residence address shall be clearly visible from the street in no less than 6" tall numerals.
Should the setback from the street be great, wayfinding signage shall be placed at the street entrance to
indicate the most appropriate access. Code language follows:
Y IFC 505.1: New and existing buildings shall have approved address numbers, building numbers or
approved building identification placed in a position that is plainly legible, visible from the street
or road fronting the property, and posted with a minimum of six-inch numerals on a contrasting
background. Where access is by means of a private road and the building cannot be viewed from
the public way, a monument, pole or other sign or means shall be used to identify the structure.

A hydrant is required within 400' of any Residential Building as measured along an approved path of
vehicle travel. Residential hydrants are to provide a minimum of 500 gpm at 20 psi residual pressure.
According to our records, there are no hydrants available in the area. In such circumstances where
either (1) the water utility infrastructure does not support minimum flow rates and pressure or (2)
where a hydrant cannot be installed, the requirement may be offset by installing a residential fire
sprinkler system in the proposed new residence.
This information shall be added to the Plat and/or other supporting documentation so as to inform
property owners of their responsibility to install a sprinkler system. This requirement shall remain in
effect until such point in time that the water utility infrastructure is able to provide required hydrants.
FIRE LANES
Fire access is required to within 150' of all exterior portions of any residence as measured by an
approved route around the building's perimeter. Should this not be achievable, then a fire lane shall be
established on the property to achieve this access and shown on the Plat or dedicated by separate legal
document. Typically for a single residence this means that the driveway is designed to support 40T and
16ft wide is appropriate for this location.
i� IFC 503.1.1: Approved fire Lanes shall be provided for every facility, building or portion of a
building hereafter constructed or moved into or within the jurisdiction. The fire apparatus access
road shall comply with the requirements of this section and shall extend to within 150 feet of all
portions of the facility and all portions of the exterior walls of the first story of the building as
measured by an approved route around the exterior of the building or facility.
FIRE LANE SPECIFICATIONS
In addition to the design criteria already stated above or contained in relevant standards and policies,
any new fire lane must meet the following general requirements:
Y Shall be dedicated as an Emergency Access Easement by Plat or separate document.
Y Maintain the required 20 foot minimum unobstructed width & 14 foot minimum overhead
clearance.
Y Be designed as a flat, all-weather driving surface capable of supporting 40 tons.

Y Dead-end fire access roads in excess of 150 feet in length shall be provided with an approved
area for turning around fire apparatus.
Y The required turning radii of a fire apparatus access road shall be a minimum of 25 feet inside
and 50 feet outside.
Y The limits of the fire lane shall be fully defined and be visible with "No Parking -Fire Lane"
signage. Sign locations shall be labeled on final plans.
Y Gating of a fire access drive requires separate approval of the fire chief and minimum code
standards for gating shall apply.
Y In rural applications such as this, fire lane standards may be modified with the approval of the
fire marshal; examples would be a reduction in road width or road surface. The applicant is
required to submit a written request for any proposed modification (eg. Proposal for compacted
road base as substitute for a flat, hard, all-weather surface as required).
PLEASE BE ADVISED: Future development on any lot requires review and approval by Poudre Fire
Authority as it pertains to fire access, water supply, and addressing compliance.

Case No. COZ18-0005
Pt. of NW% of Section 10, T7N, R67W, 6111 P.M.
Water Division 1, Water District 3
Dear Ms. Snyder:
We have reviewed the above referenced proposal for a change of zone and the submitted material
does not appear to qualify as a "subdivision" as defined in § 30-28-101(10)(a), C.R.S. Therefore, pursuant
to the State Engineer's March 4, 2005 and March 11, 2011 memorandums to county planning directors,
this office will only perform a cursory review of the referral information and provide comments. The
comments will not address the adequacy of the water supply plan for this property or the ability of the
water supply plan to satisfy any County regulations or requirements.
The Applicant proposes to change the zone of a 44.91 acre parcel. The current zone is a planned
unit development and the Applicant wishes to change the zone to agricultural and to build a single-family
home on the lot in the future.
The proposed water supply for the lot is a well. Since the lot will be greater than 35 acres in size,
it is anticipated that a well permit could be issued that would allow the use of the well for fire
protection, ordinary household purposes inside not more than three single-family dwellings, the watering
of poultry, domestic animals and livestock on a farm or ranch, and the irrigation of not more than one
acre of home gardens and lawns. Please note that a permit to construct a well on the subject lot, well
permit no. 243581, was issued by this office on August 28, 2002 and was subsequently cancelled per the
permit Applicant's request on January 6, 2003. Since this permit is no longer valid the Applicant must
submit an application to construct a new residential well (form GWS-44) to this office.
The ability of the landowner to obtain a well permit, along with the allowable uses for the well,
will be determined at the time a well permit application is received by this office. Should you or the
Applicant have any questions regarding this matter please contact Colin Watson at this office.
Sincerely,
/-
Sarah Brucker, P.E.
