Union Farms Development, LLC c/o Andrew Batson
1132 HWY 66, Longmont, CO 80504
Hearing Date: September 5, 2017
Change of Zone from the A (Agricultural) Zone District to the PUD (Planned Unit
Development) Zone District for twelve (12) residential lots with Estate Zone District
Uses with 4.6 acres of open space
Part of the W2NW4 Section 29, T3N, R68W of the 6th P.M., Weld County, CO
South of and adjacent to HWY 66 and approximately 660 feet east of CR 3
+/- 19.13 acres PARCEL NO.: 1207-29-0-00-031
The applicant is proposing a twelve (12) lot PUD with Estate Zone District Uses and 4.6 acres of open
space. The twelve (12) residential lots vary in size from 0.99 acres to 1.10 acres. The applicant has
submitted a Specific Development Guide with this application.
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 27-5-30
of the Weld County Code.
2. The submitted materials are in compliance with Section 27-6-120 of the Weld County Code as
follows:
A. Section 27-6-120.B.2.a - The proposal is consistent with any intergovernmental agreement in
effect influencing the PUD and Chapters 19 (Coordinated Planning Agreements), Chapter 22
(Comprehensive Plan), Chapter 23 (Zoning), Chapter 24 (Subdivision), and Chapter 26
(Regional Urbanization Areas) of the Weld County Code.
The site is located within the Coordinated Planning Agreement area for the Town of Mead.
The Town of Mead referral agency comments dated June 13, 2017 stated "no comment".
Section 22-2-120.C - R.Goal 3. of the Weld County Code states: "Consider the compatibility
with surrounding land uses, natural site features, nearby municipalities' comprehensive plans
and general residential growth trends when evaluating new residential development
proposals."
The applicant is proposing a twelve (12) lot PUD with Estate Zone District Uses and 4.6 acres
of open space. the applicant has submitted a Specific Development Guide with this
application. The twelve (12) residential lots vary in size from 0.99 acres to 1.10 acres. The
PUDZ17-0004
Page 2 of 8
minimum lot size in the Estate Zone District is 2.5 acres so the application materials include a
waiver request for lot size.
Section 22-3-40.B - P.Goal 2, states, "Require adequate facilities and services to assure the
health, safety and general welfare of the present and future residents of the County."
The proposed PUD will be serviced by the Longs Peak Water District and Individual Sewage
Disposal Systems will handle the effluent flow.
B. Section 27-6-120.B.2.b - The uses which would be allowed in the proposed PUD will conform
with the performance standards of the PUD Zone District contained in Article II of Chapter 27.
The proposed PUD conforms with the performance standards as outlined in Chapter 27,
Article II, Section 27-2-20 through Section 27-2-220 of the Weld County Code. With the
following exception:
Sec. 27-2-40. - Bulk requirements. The normal bulk requirements for minimum setback,
minimum offset, minimum lot size, minimum lot area per structure, maximum height of
buildings and lot coverage may be varied as specified in a PUD final plan. (All other
performance standards applicable to a PUD Zone District may be required to be as strict as
the performance standards contained in the zone district in which the use would usually be
allowed.)
The applicant has chosen to adhere to the bulk requirements of the E (Estate) Zone District
with the exception of the required 2.5 -acre lot size. The twelve (12) residential lots vary in
size from 0.99 acres to 1.10 acres. The applicant is requesting a waiver for the smaller lots.
Additionally, the Weld County Code states that the entrance signage square footage is
restricted to 32 square feet. The proposed sign is about 48 square feet in size. The
applicant is requesting a waiver for the larger sign.
C. Section 27-6-120.B.2.c - The uses which would be permitted shall be compatible with the
existing or future development of the surrounding area as permitted by the existing zoning,
and with the future development as projected by Chapter 22 of this Code or master plans of
affected municipalities.
This PUD Change of Zone is located within the 3 -mile referral areas of the Towns of Mead
and Firestone, the City of Longmont, and Boulder County. The proposed PUD is also located
within the Intergovernmental Agreement area for the Town of Mead. No referral responses
have been received from the Town of Firestone or Boulder County. The Town of Mead's
referral comments dated June 13, 2017 stated no concerns. The City of Longmont's referral
comments dated June 20, 2017 requested that the application be referred to the St. Vrain
Sanitation District (District) with a request for service. If the District can serve this
development, the City of Longmont suggests that the applicant consider clustering the homes
to preserve additional open space in this area. The application was sent to the District for
review and referral comments were received July 6, 2017. The referral comments from the
District recommend that the applicant include the property in the District boundary and install
a sanitary sewer. The applicant provided a letter on August 29, 2017 stating that they had a
meeting with the District and the District agreed that it is far too costly to bring sewer to the
PUD.
The Weld County Department of Planning Services has received one letter of objection to this
PUD. The concerns outlined in the letter include a negative environmental impact to the
area, the septic systems will be detrimental to the water table, and that the drainage report
should include the impact of the 12 septic systems and their eventual flow. The letter also
stated that there is no ditch on the south side of the subject property as mentioned in the
drainage report but there is a ditch on the northern portion of the subject property (the
Starbart Ditch) and that the applicant should have the PUD formally approved by the board
and members of Starbart [Starbird] Ditch Company. The ditch company did not respond with
PUDZ17-0004
Page 3 of 8
any referral agency comments. The Department of Planning Services -Engineer is reviewing
the drainage report and is requiring an updated drainage report. This updated report is
required to clarify the information about the location of the ditch(es). The site is required to
detain flows from the developed portion of the site and release the flows at the historic (pre -
development) rate.
D. Section 27-6-120.B.2.d - The PUD Zone District shall be serviced by an adequate water
supply and sewage disposal system in compliance with the performance standards in Article
II of Chapter 27.
The Weld County Environmental Health Department in their referral dated June 19, 2017
stated that the Longs Peak Water District will provide water and septic systems will provide
sewer. The minimum lot size of 1 acre coupled with an overall density of one septic system
per t5 acres does meet current Department policy.
In an email dated July 14, 2017, the Assistant Weld County Attorney has approved the water
source of Longs Peak Water District. The application has satisfied Chapter 27 of the Weld
County Code in regard to water service.
The application has satisfied Chapter 27 of the Weld County Code in regard to sewer service.
Individual on -site wastewater treatment systems (OWTS) will provide sewer for the lots and a
soils report dated August 25, 2016 from CDS Engineering Corporation was included with this
application. The report indicated an average percolation rate of 100 minutes per inch which
would require engineer designed systems. Groundwater was encountered at 3 feet which
may require mounded systems.
E. Section 27-6-120.B.2.e - The street or highway facilities providing access to the property are
adequate in functional classification, width and structural capacity to meet the traffic
requirements of the uses of the proposed PUD Zone District.
During the review of the Sketch Plan (PUDK15-0004) CDOT reviewed the access point. At
that time two access points were requested. CDOT stated that only one access point would
be granted and the applicant modified the plat to show only one access point onto HWY 66.
No comments have been received from CDOT on this Change of Zone (PUDZ17-0004).
F. Section 27-6-120.B.2.f - An off -site road improvements agreement and an on -site
improvements agreement proposal is in compliance with Chapter 24 of this Code, as
amended, and a road improvements agreement is complete and has been submitted, if
applicable.
An Improvements and Road Maintenance Agreement is required with this PUD.
G. Section 27-6-120.B.2.g - There has been compliance with the applicable requirements
contained in Chapter 23 of this Code regarding overlay districts, commercial mineral
deposits, and soil conditions on the subject site.
The proposed PUD is not located within the Airport Overlay District, a Geological Hazard
Area, or a Special Flood Hazard Area.
Building Permits issued on the proposed lots will be required to adhere to the fee structure of
the County -Wide Road Impact Fee Program.
Building Permits issued on the proposed lots, will be required to adhere to the fee structure of
the County Facility Fee and Drainage Impact Fee Programs.
PUDZ17-0004
Page 4 of 8
The Conditions of Approval request that the applicant provide a statement or a surface use
agreement that stipulates that the oil and gas activities on the subject property have been
adequately incorporated into the design of the site, OR shall provide written evidence that an
adequate attempt has been made to mitigate the concerns of the mineral owners on the
subject property.
The Colorado Geological Survey has reviewed the Preliminary Geotechnical Report
submitted with the Sketch Plan (PUDK15-0004) and stated that the site is not undermined,
does not contain steep slopes, and is located outside of any FEMA mapped flood hazard
zones. The CGS report indicated that the site the site is not exposed to any geologic hazards
that would preclude the proposed subdivision, and appears to be suitable for the proposed
residential use and density. The report listed shallow ground water as a constraint and stated
that due to risk of water infiltration into below -grade spaces, damp/moldy conditions, and
hydrostatic loads on below -grade walls and floor, below -grade construction (crawl spaces
and basements of any depth) should not be considered feasible on at least the southern
portion of the site (proposed lots 3 through 7). The soil analysis also indicated that the site
soils are highly corrosive to steel and have slow percolations rates. The septic system may
need to be designed by an engineer, have shorter life spans, and require more maintenance.
A backup septic system location should be identified on each lot.
H. Section 27-6-120.B.2.h - Consistency exists between the proposed zone district(s), uses, and
the specific or conceptual development guide and concerns identified in sketch plan
comments provided pursuant to Section 27-4-40 of Chapter 27 have been adequately
addressed.
The Sketch Plan for this PUD was reviewed under case number PUDK15-0004. The
submitted Specific Development Guide accurately reflects the consistency with the
performance standards and allowed uses described in the proposed zone district with the
exemption of lot size. The applicant is requesting that the Final Plan be administratively
reviewed. The Department of Planning Services is in agreement with this request.
This approval recommendation is based upon compliance with Chapter 27 requirements.
The Change of Zone from Planned Unit Development with Agricultural Zone District Uses to Planned Unit
Development with Estate Zone District Uses is conditional upon the following:
1. Prior to recording the plat:
A. The applicant shall provide the Weld County Department of Planning Services with a

Planning Services)
16) 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.
17) 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

acres of open space.
On parcel(s) of land described as :
PART W2NW4 SECTION 29, T3N, R68W OF THE 6TH P.M., WELD COUNTY, COLORADO.
Dear Applicants:
I have scheduled a meeting with the Weld County Planning Commission on September 5, 2017, at
12:30 p.m. A subsequent hearing with the Board of County Commissioners will be held on September
20, 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

acres of open space.
On parcel(s) of land described as:
PART W2NW4 SECTION 29, T3N, R68W OF THE 6TH P.M., WELD COUNTY, COLORADO.
Dear Applicants:
Your application and related materials for the request described above are complete and in order at this
time. I will schedule a meeting with you at the end of the review period to discuss the referral
comments received by our office.
It is the policy of Weld County to refer an application of this nature to any town or municipality lying
within three miles of the property in question or if the property under consideration is located within the
comprehensive planning area of a town or municipality. Therefore, our office has forwarded a copy of
the submitted materials to the following Planning Departments for their review and comments:
Firestone at Phone Number 303-833-3291
Longmont at Phone Number 303-651-8601
Mead at Phone Number 970-535-4477
It is recommended that you contact the listed Planning Departments for information regarding their
process and to answer any questions that might arise with respect to your application.
If you have any questions concerning this matter, please call.

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, 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.
F. The Change of Zone plat map shall be submitted to the Department of Planning Services' for
recording within 3 years of approval by the Board of County Commissioners. With the
Change of Zone plat map, the applicant shall submit a digital file of all drawings associated
with the Change of Zone application.
