N TTY FROM: LAUREN LIGHT, ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH
SUBJECT: USR14-0043
DATE: AUGUST 20, 2014
Environmental Health Services has reviewed this proposal for a Site Specific
Development Plan and Use by Special Review Permit for any use permitted as a
Use by Right, an Accessory Use, or a Use by Special Review in the Commercial or
Industrial Zone Districts (landscape turf installation, trucking and truck repair shop along
with outside equipment/vehicle storage and staging), provided that the property is not a
Lot in an approved or recorded subdivision plat or lots parts of a map or plan filed prior
to adoption of any regulations controlling subdivisions in the A (Agricultural) Zone
District.
The application indicates there are currently 9 employees that come to the site but there
may be up to 15 employees in the future.
The property is served by North Weld Water District. A letter was provided from the
District which indicated no issues with this proposed use.
There is a septic system located on the property (SP-0900053) which was sized for 4
bedrooms/8 people. Approval for the addition of a 5th bedroom was granted as the
existing field size was within 20 percent of the required field size in accordance with EH
policy. The application states the restroom in the house is utilized by employees. Any
additional hydraulic load to the existing septic system which exceeds sizing
requirements shall require a review by a Colorado registered professional engineer and
in the event the system is found to be inadequately sized or constructed, the system
shall be brought into compliance with current regulations.
Portable toilets can be utilized for employees as it is the policy of this department that
portable toilets are allowed when employees or contractors are on site for less than 2
consecutive hours a day. As drivers will be on site for a short duration, in accordance
with Environmental Health Services policy, the use of portable toilets is allowed.
There is also a residence located on the adjoining parcel addressed as 19316 CR 76
which is served by North Weld Water District and a septic system (G19899071).
According to the application the parcel is included in this request since a portion of the
parking lot is located on this site.
An on sight dust abatement plan was not included with the application and is required.
The waste handling plan indicates that Northern Colorado Disposal will provide trash
removal. Used oil and other vehicle fluids generated from vehicle maintenance will be
taken to Empire Truck Center. The recycling of tires will be done by Schroeder Tire and
Rubber. There is a floor drain in the maintenance shop which the applicant has stated
is capped. The applicant indicated a watertight vault will be installed and contents will
be removed for proper off-site disposal. The application states that no vehicle washing
is done onsite. If equipment washing occurs onsite, the wash water discharge must be
contained for proper offsite disposal. The fuel tanks on site must have secondary
containment in case of a spill.
We have no objections to the proposal; however, we do recommend that the following
conditions be part of any approval:
Prior to recording the plat:
1. The applicant shall submit a Dust Abatement Plan, detailing on site dust control
measures, for review and approval, to the Environmental Health Services
Division of the Weld County Department of Public Health and Environment.

Facilities Act, 30-20-100.5, C.R.S., as amended) shall be stored and removed
for final disposal in a manner that protects against surface and groundwater
contamination.
2. No permanent disposal of wastes shall be permitted at this site. This is not
meant to include those wastes specifically excluded from the definition of a
solid waste in the Solid Wastes Disposal Sites and Facilities Act, 30-20-100.5,
C.R.S., as amended.
3. Waste materials shall be handled, stored, and disposed in a manner that
controls fugitive dust, fugitive particulate emissions, blowing debris, and other
potential nuisance conditions. The applicant shall operate in accordance with
the approved Waste Handling Plan, at all times.

discharges in accordance with the Rules and Regulations of the Water Quality

Code.
7. Adequate drinking, hand washing and toilet facilities shall be provided for
employees and patrons of the facility, at all times. For employees or
contractors on site for less than 2 consecutive hours a day, portable toilets and
bottled water are acceptable. Records of maintenance and proper disposal for
portable toilets shall be retained on a quarterly basis and available for review by
the Weld County Department of Public Health and Environment. Portable
toilets shall be serviced by a cleaner licensed in Weld County and shall contain
hand sanitizers.
8. In the event the existing septic system is utilized for business use, the septic
system shall be reviewed by a Colorado registered professional engineer if the
usage surpasses septic permit SP-0900053 sizing limitations. The review shall
consist of observation of the system and a technical review describing the
system's ability to handle the proposed hydraulic load. The review shall be
submitted to the Environmental Health Services Division of the Weld County
Department of Public Health and Environment. In the event the system is
found to be inadequately sized or constructed, the system shall be brought into
compliance with current regulations.

MEMORANDUM
C.= To: Kim Ogle, Planner August 5, 2014
From: Bethany Pascoe, Zoning Compliance Officer
Subject: USR14-0043 Referral
Upon review of my case files and computer, an active Zoning Violation (ZCV14-00010)was noted. This
violation was initiated due to the operation of a Commercial Trucking operation without first completing the
necessary Weld County Zoning Permits. This case has been forwarded to the County Attorney's Office
and we have initiated legal action; therefore, an investigation fee is required.
Due to records release laws, staff no longer tracks complainant information, but please be aware it is
staff's policy to no longer accept staff initiated complaints.
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,the Commercial Trucking operation shall be
removed from the property within 30(thirty)days of denial or the violation will proceed in court accordingly.
