Case Summary:
The applicant is requesting a Use by Special Review permit for parking of eleven (11) commercial trucks.
Minor truck maintenance is done on site i.e. replacing wipers, lights, and fixing flat tires. The application
materials state that there are four (4) drivers who access the site to pick up the trucks; however, the
applicant would like to increase the number of trucks to eleven (11) and the number of drivers to
seventeen (17). Hours of operation are 4:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. 7 -days a week. The applicant has stated
that no new landscaping or fencing is being proposed.
This case is an active Zoning Violation (ZCV17-00010) which was initiated due to the operation of a
trucking company without first completing the necessary Weld County Zoning Permits. If this application
is approved by the Board of County Commissioners this violation will be corrected. If this application is
denied the Department of Planning Services asks that the Board of County Commissioners forward this
case 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 all but 1 (one) Commercial Vehicle
from the property.
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:
USR17-0025
Page 2 0110
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.G - A.Goal 7 states, "County land use regulations should protect the
individual property owner's right to request a land use change." And Section 22-2-20.G.2 -
A.Policy 7.2 states, "Conversion of agricultural land to nonurban residential, commercial, and
industrial uses should be accommodated when the subject site is in an area that can support
such development, and should attempt to be compatible with the region."
The applicant is requesting a Use by Special Review permit for parking of eleven (11)
commercial trucks. Minor truck maintenance is done on site i.e. replacing wipers, lights, and
fixing flat tires. The application materials state that there are four (4) drivers who access the
site to pick up the trucks; however, the applicant would like to increase the number of trucks
to eleven (11) and the number of drivers to seventeen (17). Hours of operation are 4:00 a.m.
to 11:00 p.m. 7 -days a week. The applicant has stated that no new landscaping or fencing is
being proposed.
Section 22-2-20.H - A.Goal 8. states, "Ensure that adequate services and facilities are
currently available or reasonably obtainable to accommodate the requested new land use
change for more intensive development."
The residence on the site was constructed in 1984 and the outbuildings were built in 1996.
The site has water from NWCWD and sewage disposal via a septic system. Adequate
services and facilities are available on the site.
Section 22-2-20.1 - A.Goal 9. states, "Reduce potential conflicts between varying land uses in
the conversion of traditional agricultural lands to other land uses."
About 20 acres of the 34.9 -acre site are in crop. The trucks will be parked by the house and
other outbuildings. 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 as Section 23-3-40.S. allows a Site Specific Development Plan and Use by
Special Review Permit for a Use permitted as a Use by Right, an Accessory Use, or a Use by
Special Review in the Commercial or Industrial Zone Districts (commercial truck parking)
provided that the property is not a lot in an approved or recorded subdivision plat or lots part
of a map or plan filed prior to adoption of any regulations controlling subdivisions in the A
(Agricultural) Zone District.
The applicant hauls produced water from oil and gas operations. Oil and gas facilities are a
use by right in the Agricultural zone per Section 23-3-20.1. as long as the WOGLA has been
issued by the Department of Planning Services or the Board of County Commissioners in
accordance with the procedures set forth in Article II, Division 10, of Chapter 23.
Section 23-3-10 - Intent states, "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 attached Development Standards and Conditions of Approval will adequately mitigate
the impacts of the use.
C. Section 23-2-220.A.3 -- The uses which will be permitted will be compatible with the existing
surrounding land uses.
The adjacent lands consist of pastures, crops, and rural residences. The closest residence is
west of the site within 100 feet of the site. A letter of support was received from this property
USR17-0025
Page 3 0110
owner. In the letter the property owner stated that she does not want any screening of fencing
blocking her view of the vehicles or the property.
There are five (5) USRs within one mile of this site. USR12-0067 for tractor trailer parking
and maintenance is located west of the site, Amended AMUSR-820 for a 3,600 -head dairy is
located north of the site, SUP -391 for a hog farm, USR-1340 for a 2,000 head dairy, and
MUSR12-0016 for a mineral resource development facility are located east of the site.
The Weld County Department of Planning Services has not received any correspondence
objecting to this Use by Special Review (USR).
D. Section 23-2-220.A.4 -- The uses which will be permitted will be compatible with future
development of the surrounding area as permitted by the existing zoning and with the future
development as projected by Chapter 22 of the Weld County Code and any other applicable
code provisions or ordinances in effect, or the adopted Master Plans of affected
municipalities.
The site is not located within a three (3) mile referral area of any municipality, nor is it located
within any existing Intergovernmental Agreement Area (IGA) of a municipality.
E. Section 23-2-220.A.5 -- The application complies with Chapter 23, Articles V and XI, of the
Weld County Code.
The site is not in an Airport Overlay District, a Geologic Hazard Overlay District, or a
Floodplain.
Building Permits issued on the lot will be required to adhere to the fee structure of the
County -Wide Road Impact Fee Program.
Building Permits issued on the proposed lot will be required to adhere to the fee structure of
the County Facility Fee and Drainage Impact Fee Programs.
F. Section 23-2-220.A.6 -- The applicant has demonstrated a diligent effort to conserve prime
agricultural land in the locational decision for the proposed use.
The proposed facility is primarily located on soils designated as "Irrigated Land, Not Prime"
per the 1979 Soil Conservation Service Important Farmlands of Weld County Map. The
proposed USR will not take any Prime (Irrigated) Farmland out of production.
G. Section 23-2-220.A.7 -- There is adequate provisions for the protection of the health, safety,
and welfare of the inhabitants of the neighborhood and County.
The Design Standards (Section 23-2-240, Weld County Code), Operation Standards (Section
23-2-250, Weld County Code), Conditions of Approval and Development Standards can
ensure that there are adequate provisions for the protection of health, safety, and welfare of
the inhabitants of the neighborhood and County.
This recommendation is based, in part, upon a review of the application materials submitted by the
applicant, other relevant information regarding the request, and responses from referral entities.

27. 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.
28. 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.
USR17-0025
Page 9 0110
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, sand burs, 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.

Dear Applicants:
I have scheduled a meeting with the Weld County Planning Commission on August 1, 2017, at 12:30
p.m. A subsequent hearing with the Board of County Commissioners will be held on September 6,
2017 at 10:00 a.m. Both hearings will be held in the Hearing Room, Weld County Administration
Building, 1150 O Street, Greeley, Colorado. It is recommended that you and/or a representative be in
attendance to answer any questions the Planning Commission members or Board of County
Commissioners may have.
Colorado Revised Statute, C.R.S.24-65.5-103 (adopted as part of H.B.01-1088) requires notification of
all mineral estate owners 30 days prior to any public hearing. The applicant needs to provide the Weld
County Planning Department with written certification indicating the above requirement has been met.
A representative from the Department of Planning Services will be out to the property a minimum of ten
days prior to the hearing to post a sign adjacent to and visible from a publicly maintained road
right-of-way which identifies the hearing time, date, and location. In the event the property is not
adjacent to a publicly maintained road right-of-way, one sign will be posted in the most prominent place
on the property and a second sign posted at the point at which the driveway (access drive) intersects a
publicly maintained road right-of-way.
The Department of Planning Services' staff will make a recommendation concerning this application to
the Weld County Planning Commission and will be included in the staff report one week prior to the
scheduled Planning Commission hearing. You may view the staff report at
