Case Summary:
The applicant and owner of Summit Machinery Sales, LLC is proposing to permit a small used
agricultural and construction equipment sales business on the property and continue utilizing the site
for livestock grazing. There will be no refurbishment, washing of equipment, painting or repair of the
equipment for sale on the property. Equipment is aligned parallel to County Road 45 with up to 12
machines staged for viewing/ inspection by prospective buyers. All equipment for sale will be
delivered and removed from the site by truck and trailer, typically not longer than 45feet. The hours
of operation vary, but may include any day of the week, including holidays. Most activity will occur
during daylight hours due to the need to inspect machines. The property owner serves as the
employee, no others are associated with the facility
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 22-2-20.B A.Goal 2. States "Continue the commitment to viable agriculture in Weld
County through mitigated protection of established (and potentially expanding) agricultural uses
from other proposed new uses that would hinder the operations of the agricultural enterprises."
The applicant provides area residents with a local equipment sales yard with large vehicular
equipment for use on the farm and ranch. The sales yard provides a venue for the viewing
and purchase of equipment that is an integral part of farming operations
USR18-0020 - Shawn and Susan Wiant

Section 22-2-20.A.Policy 2.2 states "Allow commercial and industrial uses, which are directly
related to or dependent upon agriculture, to locate within agricultural areas when the impact to
surrounding properties is minimal or mitigated and where adequate services and infrastructure
are currently available or reasonably obtainable. These commercial and industrial uses should
be encouraged to locate in areas that minimize the removal of agricultural land from
production."
Section 22-2-20.G.A.Goal 7. States "County land use regulations should protect the individual
property owner's right to request aland use change."
A.Policy 7.1. states "County land use regulations should support commercial and industrial uses
that are directly related to, or dependent upon, agriculture, to locate within the agricultural areas,
when the impact to surrounding properties is minimal or can be mitigated, and where adequate
services are currently available or reasonably obtainable."
The applicants seek to address the changing needs of agricultural while enjoying the rural
lifestyle of an agriculture and construction equipment sales dealer on a parcel of land that serves
not only as their residence but also provides for grazing lands for their livestock. Business related
traffic to and from the site is minimal with access coming from a paved road onto a graveled
access and parking area. Noise from the equipment for sale is negligible and will have little
impact on the surrounding property owners. Further, no agricultural land has been taken out of
production at this site.
Section 22-2-20. I. A.Goal 9, states "Reduce potential conflicts between varying land uses in
the conversion of traditional agricultural lands to other land uses."
The equipment sales area is located in distances greater than 1000 -feet from any residence.
There are five (5) property owners on five parcels of land within 500 -feet of this proposed facility.
Planning staff has not received any correspondence regarding this application by neighbors or
interested persons.
The proposed use is in an area that can support this development and the Development
Standards, and the Conditions of Approval will assist in mitigating the impacts of the facility on the
adjacent properties and ensure compatibility with surrounding land uses and the region.
B. Section 23-2-220.A.2 -- The proposed use is consistent with the intent of the A (Agricultural) Zone
District,
Section 23-30-10 states "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."
Section 23-3-40.S allows for "Any use permitted as a Use by Right, an accessory use, or a Use
by Special Review in the commercial or industrial zone districts, (Agriculture and Construction
machinery sales) 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.
C. Section 23-2-220.A.3 -- The uses which will be permitted will be compatible with the existing
surrounding land uses.

29. 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
USR18-0020 - Shawn and Susan Wiant
Page 8
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.
30. WELD COUNTY'S RIGHT TO FARM: 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, sandburs, 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.
