of Transportation (CDOT), which indicated there are no concerns with this request, but the
applicant will be required to work with CDOT for any additional requirements.
Hayley Balzano, Planning Services Engineer representative, presented the drainage and
grading requirements.
• Lauren Light, Department of Public Health and Environment, reviewed the water and sewer
provisions. The City of Greeley provides water and sewer to the site.
• Bryant Gimlin, applicant, reported that both the City of Greeley and North Weld County
Water District provide water and sewer to the site, because it was requested by the Fire
Department, due to the natural of the fuel storage business. He explained they would like to make
a cohesive parcel, since the property shares a common ingress and egress. Mark Taylor,
representative of the applicant, stated he has a concern with having the City of Greeley supply
water and sewer to the parcel because it could trigger a forced annexation.
No public testimony was offered concerning this matter.
In response to Commissioner Conway, Mr. Gimlin stated it would address his concerns if
North Weld County Water District and the City of Greeley was reinserted. Commissioner Conway
stated that Condition of Approval (COA) #1.C.4 should be modified to insert "or North Weld County
Water District." Commissioner Kirkmeyer stated that COA #1.C.5 should state, "is obtained from
the City of Greeley."
In response to Acting Chair Pro -Tern Kirkmeyer, Mr. Gimlin and Mr. Taylor indicated they
reviewed, and agree to abide by, the Conditions of Approval, as amended.
• Commissioner Freeman moved to approve the request of Hill Industries, LLC, for Change
of Zone, COZ17-0004, from the 1-3 (Industrial) Zone District to the C-3 (Business Commercial)
Zone District, based on the recommendations of Planning staff and the Planning Commission,
with the Conditions of Approval as entered the record. The motion was seconded by
Commissioner Conway, and it carried unanimously. There being no further discussion, the
hearing was completed at 10:15 a.m.
