Case Summary:
West of and adjacent to CR 49.5 and approximately 0.25 miles north of US HWY 34
+/- 26.69 acres Parcel No. 0963-18-3-00-010
The applicant is requesting a USR for outdoor storage of construction and oil field equipment and vehicles
and a 4,000 square foot shop/warehouse. Two business will rent the site. Each business will occupy 2,000
square feet of the shop/warehouse and part of the outdoor storage area. Neither business has office hours
or retail sales. The employees will visit the site for less than 3 hours a day for pick up and drop off of
equipment and vehicles. The hours of operation are 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. 7 -days a week. Adequate
parking is being proposed. There is no existing landscaping and no new landscaping is proposed. The
site will be screened with a 6 foot tall metal panel fence. Any site lighting or signs will need to comply with
the Weld County Code requirements.
This is an active Zoning Violation (ZCV16-00091) that was initiated due to the parking and storage of
miscellaneous vehicles and items associated with a repossession company without first completing the
necessary Weld County Zoning Permits. This case has not been presented to the Weld County Court
Magistrate through the Violation Hearing process. If this application if approved by the Board of County
Commissioners and once a plat is recorded will correct this outstanding violation. If this application is
denied, staff is requesting that the Board of County Commissioners refer this case to the County Attorney's
Office to proceed with legal, but to delay legal action for 30 (thirty) days so that all storage/parking can be
removed 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.
USR16-0045
Page 2 of 9
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:
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 USR for outdoor storage of construction and oil field
equipment and vehicles and a 4,000 square foot shop/warehouse. Two business will rent
the site. Each business will occupy 2,000 square feet of the shop/warehouse and part of
the outdoor storage area. Neither business has office hours or retail sales. The employees
will visit the site for less than 3 hours a day for pick up and drop off of equipment and
vehicles. The hours of operation are 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. 7 -days a week. Adequate
parking is being proposed. There is no existing landscaping and no new landscaping is
proposed. The site will be screened with a 6 foot tall metal panel fence. Any site lighting
or signs will need to comply with the Weld County Code requirements.
The subject site is in an area that can support this development and is compatible with the
region. The Development Standards and the Conditions of Approval for this proposal will
assist in mitigating the impacts of the facility on the adjacent properties and ensure
compatibility with surrounding land uses.
B. Section 23-2-220.A.2. -- The proposed use is consistent with the intent of the A
(Agricultural) Zone District Section 23-3-40.S. which allows for 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
(outdoor storage of construction and oil field equipment and vehicles and a 4,000 sf
shop/warehouse) 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.
C. Section 23-2-220.A.3 -- The uses which will be permitted will be compatible with the
existing surrounding land uses.
The adjacent properties are mainly utilized for pastures, crops, and rural residences. The
properties to the north, east, and west are cropland. The parcels to the north, east and
south all have rural residences. The closest residence is approximately 60 feet east of the
east property line.
There are eight (8) USRs within one mile of the site. USR-1325 for a second home, USR-
171 for a dairy, USR-1435 for gravel mining and an asphalt plant, MUSR15-0020 for a
mineral resource development facility, and USR11-0027 for an excavation business are all
located north of the site. USR-517 for an agricultural chemical supply business, USR11-
0024 for a non -1041 major facility of a public utility less than 10 -inch pipeline, and USR-
457 for a dairy are located south of the site.
The Weld County Department of Planning Services has received one phone call objecting
to this USR from a surrounding property. The caller expressed concerns about traffic and
the intensity of the businesses.
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
USR16-0045
Page 3 of 9
applicable code provisions or ordinances in effect, or the adopted Master Plans of affected
municipalities.
The site is located within a three (3) mile referral area of the City of Greeley and the Town
of Kersey and within the Town of Kersey's Intergovernmental Agreement Area (IGA). The
City of Greeley responded with referral agency comments dated December 14, 2016
stating no concerns. The Town of Kersey did not respond with referral agency comments.
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 a floodplain. The site is located in Weld/Greeley Overlay District.
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 located on approximately 26.00 acres of soils designated as
"Prime" per the 1979 Soil Conservation Service Important Farmlands of Weld County Map.
A majority of the site will remain in agriculture. This USR will take about 3 acres of "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.

30. 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.
31. 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
USR16-0045
Page 8 of 9
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.

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
