Resource Development Facility, including an Oil and Gas Support and Service Facility (compressor station)
in the A (Agricultural) Zone District.
This project is northeast of CR 69 & CR 380. Parcel number 096719100002.
Access is from CR 69.
Access:
An Access Permit is required. For new accesses and/or change of use of an existing access, the fee and
photos are required (Access permit instructions and application can be found at
http://www.co.weld.co.us/Departments/PublicWorks/Permits.html.) Chapter 6, Sections 6.3, 6.4 and 6.5 of

olicies.html) Existing access points with change of use or new access points may or may not be granted.
Questions pertaining to access permits or access design shall be directed to the Public Works Department.
For shared accesses, Public Works strongly recommends that 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 for the recorded exemption but is recommended
to avoid property owner conflicts in the future.
Entrance gates (if applicable) must be set back a minimum of 100 feet from edge of shoulder to allow a
truck with trailer or RV to pull completely off of the roadway and open the gate. In no case shall any
vehicle(s) stopped to open a gate be allowed to create a safety issue for roadway users.
Roads:
County Road 69 is a gravel road and is designated on the Weld County Road Classification Plan as a local
road, which requires 60 feet of right-of-way at full buildout. The applicant shall delineate on the site plan
the future and existing right-of-way. All setbacks shall be measured from the edge of future right-of-way.
This road is maintained by Weld County.
Traffic:
Latest ADT on 69 was taken on 10/07/2014 which counted 860 vpd with 32% trucks.
The traffic information submitted with the application materials indicated that there will be approximately 5
daily roundtrips.
TRACKING CONTROL:
Less than 20 passenger vehicle round trips/day, no upfront tracking control requirements.
A development standard will be included on the recorded site plan. The access shall be maintained to
mitigate any impacts to the public road including damages and/or offsite tracking."
Improvements and Road Maintenance Agreement:
No improvements agreement will be required as the anticipated traffic is less than 21 round truck trips/day
or 50 round passenger vehicle trips/day.
CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL:
A. The plan shall be amended to delineate the following:
1. County Road 69 is a paved road and is designated on the Weld County Road Classification Plan
as a local road which requires 60 feet of right-of-way at full buildout. The applicant shall delineate
on the site plan the existing right-of-way. All setbacks shall be measured from the edge of right-of-
way. This road is maintained by Weld County. (Department of Public Works)
2. Show and label the approved access(es) (APXX-XXXXX), and the appropriate turning radii on the
site plan. (Department of Public Works)
3. Show and label the entrance gate set back a minimum of 100ft from edge of shoulder. (Department
of Public Works)
Prior to Construction:
A. The approved access shall be constructed prior to on -site construction. (Department of Public Works)
DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS (NOTES ON THE SITE PLAN)
1. The property owner shall control noxious weeds on the site. (Department of Public Works)
2. The access on the site shall be maintained to mitigate any impacts to the public road including
damages and/or offsite tracking. (Department of Public Works)
