SUBJECT: USR15-0077, Cannon
The Weld County Department of Planning Services-Engineering has reviewed this proposal. Staff
comments made during this phase of the application process may not be all-inclusive, as other issues
may arise during the remaining application process.
COMMENTS:
General Project Information/Location:
CNG fill station
This project is north of CR 22 just east of SH 85. Parcel number 130910000006.
Access is from CR 22.
Access:
An access permit has been approved for the access to the site (AP15-0581).
Roads:
County Road 22 is a paved road and is designated on the Weld County Road Classification Plan as a
arterial road, which requires 140 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 CR 22 was taken on 10/9/13 which counted 2186 vpd with 64% trucks.
A traffic narrative was submitted with the application materials and indicated that there will be
approximately 6 trucks daily roundtrips and 2 employee round trips day.
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. The site plan is
not clear if this is met?
TRACKING CONTROL:
Tracking control is required to prevent tracking from the site onto public roadways. Minimal standards are
listed below. Temporary Tracking Control shall be used during construction unless permanent tracking
control is installed ahead of construction activities.
4 to 10 round truck trips/day (tandem or semi-trucks):
Access onto paved roads requires a tracking control device and a minimum of 100ft of recycled
asphalt/road base OR 300ft of asphalt. (SURFACE IMPROVEMENTS LESS THAN 300 FT MAY
BE ALLOWED IF SITE CONSTRAINTS WOULD PROHIBIT MEETING CONDITION.)
*Recycled concrete is not allowed in County ROW
**Tracking control devices can be double cattle guards or other specialized device
*** Tracking control for unmaintained public ROW is required just prior to entering publically maintained
roadways.
A development standard will be included on the recorded site plan. "The site 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. A development standard will be applied to the recorded plan
indicating any impacts to the road must be mitigated by the owner. There shall be no tracking from the
site onto publically maintained roads. The applicant is responsible for mitigation of any damage or offsite
tracking and upgrading and/or maintaining onsite tracking control.
Drainage Requirements:
I final drainage report has been submitted and is currently under review by engineering. Staff does not
anticipate any issues meeting requirements.

A Weld County Grading Permit will be required if disturbing more than 1 acre. Grading Permit
applications are accepted after the planning process is complete (plan recorded). An Early Release

granted depending on referral comments and surrounding property owner concerns. Contact a
Engineering representative from the Planning Department for more information.
