Public Works will review the application and provide an access permit and permit number if approved. Questions concerning access requirements can be directed to Public Works access permit division. 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. For new accesses and/or change of use of an existing access, the fee and photos are required (photo looking left and right along roadway from the access point and looking in to and out of the access point). These photos are used to evaluate the safety of the access location. Access permit instructions and application can be found at https://www.weldgov.com/departments/publIc works/permits/. Chapter 6, Sections 6.3, 6.4 and 6.5 of the Weld County Engineering and Construction Criteria offer access design guidance, which can be accessed at: https://www weldgov com/departmerits/public works/engineering/. For shared accesses, Public Works strongly recommends the property owner establish an access road maintenance agreement so future owners of the properties will be aware of their requirements for shared maintenance of the access road. This is not a requirement, but is recommended to avoid property owner conflicts in the future. Per Chapter 12, Appendix 12A.4.1 of the Weld County Code, an access approach that is gated shall be designed so that the longest vehicle (including trailers) using the access can completely clear the traveled way when the gate is closed.

MEMORANDUM To: Diana Aungst, Planner June 30, 2017 From: Bethany Pascoe, Zoning Compliance Officer Subject: USR17-0035 Referral Upon review of my case files and computer, an active Zoning Violation (ZCV17-00102) was noted. This violation was initiated due to the operation of a motorcycle parts company and more than 2 (two) cargo containers without first completing the necessary Weld County Zoning Permits. This case has NOT been forwarded to the County Attorney's Office; therefore, an investigation fee is NOT required. Due to records release laws, staff no longer tracks complainant information, but please be aware it is staff's policy to no longer accept staff initiated complaints. Approval of this application by the Board of County Commissioners would correct the outstanding violations. If this application is denied, the Department of Planning Services asks that the Board forward these cases to the County Attorney's Office for legal action through the District Court process, but to delay that legal action for 30 (thirty) days to allow the applicant time to remove the motorcycle storage and operations as well as all but 2 (two) cargo containers (as allowed as an Accessory Use with building permits in the Ag Zone District) from the property.
