Re: Lot Size Variance Request
Dear'Commissioners:
The attached materials are in reference to a request, by Clarence V.
Anderson, for a Lot Size Variance on a parcel of land described as
part of the S'z of the SW'., of Section 14 T6N R66W of the 6th P.M. , Held
County, Colorado. Said parcel is located 2 3/4 miles west of Lucerne
northeast of the intersection of Highway 392 .and County Poad 33. The
subject property contains approximately 18.90 acres of irrinated land.
The request is to split the property into two parcels. If approved
there would result a 3.90 acre parcel with all the improvements and
a 15 acre parcel without improvements. The stated intent is to sell
the 3. 90 acre parcel with improvements and construct new improvements
on the 15 acre parcel at a later date.
Based upon the information submitted, the Planning Commission staff
recommends denial for the following reasons:
1 . The proposed split does not_ comply with the Weld County
Comprehensive Plan because it would promote non-agri-
cultural use of agricultural land and it would encourage
urban encroachment on rural land use.
2. This lot size variance request is not in compliance with
the intent clause of the recorded exemption procedure
(Section 9-2 of the Weld County Subdivision Regulations) .
Said clause states:
"The intent in establishing the Recorded Ex-
emption procedure is to provide, in accordance

with the Weld County Comprehensive Plan, a means
whereby non-productive agricultural lands may be
developed for higher or more productive uses, in-
so-far as such uses are compatible with surround-
ing agricultural uses in areas where such land
divisions are proposed. (Rev. 4/17/74)"
Soils in this area are Class II. The granting of this lot size
variance and a subsequent recorded exemption would allow for
the conversion of productive agricultural lands since a new
set of improvements would be allowed on the 15 acre parcel .
3. This lot size variance request is not in conformance with the
intent clause of the Agricultural Zone District (Section 3.3 A
of the Weld County Zoning Resolution) which states:
"Intent - The intent in establishing the A-I Agri-
. cultural Zone District is to allow all agricultural
and related uses in those areas in which agriculture
is and should continue to be the predominant land
use. This district is intended to discourage en-
croachment of incompatible uses upon the agricultural
land in the district, to encourage agricultural as
the highest and best use of the land in the district
as compared with other uses in conflict therewith, and
to provide for the orderly expansion of urban growth
in conformance with the Weld County Comprehensive
Plan. "
The request would not be encouraging agricultural uses as the high-
est and best uses and it would not be providing for the orderly
expansion of urban growth.
