34. 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.
35. 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.

Chris Gathman, Planning Services, presented Case USR17-0057, reading the recommendation and
comments into the record. The Department of Planning Services recommends approval of this application
with the attached conditions of approval and development standards.
Evan Pinkham, Public Works, reported on the existing traffic and access to the site.
Hayley Balzano, Engineering, reported on the drainage conditions for the site.
Ben Frissell, Environmental Health, reviewed the public water and sanitary sewer requirements, on -site
dust control, and the Waste Handling Plan.
Doug Dennison, Bill Barrett Corporation, 33105 CR 33, Greeley, Colorado, stated that staff did a good job
explaining the project and added that he is here to answer any questions.
Commissioner Johnson asked what kind of erosion control they are planning since it is sandy soil. Mr.
Dennison said that it was reclaimed once and added that they will have a field wide stormwater
management plan. He added that before construction all the necessary best management practices, like
erosion socks will be installed. Because of sandy soils, when they disturb the ground they reseed to
stabilize the site because the wind and lack of water is a problem.
The Chair asked if there was anyone in the audience who wished to speak for or against this application.
No one wished to speak.
The Chair asked the applicant if they have read through the Development Standards and Conditions of
Approval and if they are in agreement with those. The applicant replied that they are in agreement.
