LOCATION: SOUTH OF AND ADJACENT TO CR 8;WEST OF AND ADJACENT TO CR 73. Benjamin Hansford wished to abstain from this case as he has been associated with these activities and doesn't wish to hear this case. Kim Ogle, Planning Services, presented Case USR15-0060, reading the recommendation and comments into the record. Mr. Ogle noted that two (2) telephone calls were received with concerns regarding the proposed uses stated in the application. Additionally, one (1) letter of objection from a surrounding property owner and six (6) letters of support were received. The Department of Planning Services recommends approval of this application with the attached conditions of approval and development standards. Jennifer Petrik, Engineering, reported on the existing traffic, access and drainage conditions and the requirements on site. 1 l//n 2015-3836 Lauren Light, Environmental Health, reviewed the public water and sanitary sewer requirements, on- site dust control, and the Waste Handling Plan. Ms. Light noted that Development Standard 3 allows for the operation to exceed six months; therefore Development Standard 3 could be amended or Development Standard 13 could be amended to take out the six months or less. She added that if the applicant's operation would exceed six months, the applicant would be required to drill a well or install a septic system to accommodate permanent sanitary facilities. Ana Ornelas stated that her family has been in the horse racing industry for 11 years and now they are trying to operate at this location. Ms. Ornelas said that she has spoken to the Weld Central High School Principal as well as the Superintendent for the RE-3J School District and they have offered to trigger donations to them from this proposed facility. She said that they would like to operate this facility in a family friendly environment and help out the community as well. Ms. Ornelas stated that they held a meeting with the surrounding landowners. As a result of this meeting, the main concerns were regarding trash and traffic during their harvest season. She said that they agreed to not have any events during the month of July to accommodate the wheat harvest. Additionally, there will be a trash pick-up crew that will be cleaning up trash during and after the events. Ms. Ornelas stated that they will also include security guards on site who will ensure that no alcohol or contraband will be allowed on the premises. Commissioner Sparrow asked if there is a Charter School in close proximity to this facility. Ms. Ornelas stated that there is a Charter Academy School and they also attended the neighborhood meeting. Commissioner Sparrow asked if any betting will be allowed. Ms. Ornelas said that no betting or wagering is allowed; however it is probably more of a friendly betting between individuals. Commissioner Sparrow asked if this area is blow sand. Ms. Ornelas said that it does and added that this was the major concern expressed by the adjacent landowners, the Klausners. She said that they agreed to spray magnesium chloride on the parking area to help with dust control. Additionally, Ms. Ornelas said that they are looking to fence the entire perimeter of the property to help control trash from blowing. Commissioner Smock referred to the letters submitted by Anadarko and Colorado Racing Commission and asked how their concerns will be addressed. Mr. Ogle said that Anadarko is seeking a Surface Use Agreement for this site and added that this is placed as a condition of approval in the staff report. Ms. Ornelas added that the Colorado Racing Commission's concern was how the horses are handled and she said that there would be a veterinarian on site to check the horses. Commissioner Berryman referred to the time of operation and asked if they will be operating in total of more than six (6) months. Ms. Ornelas said that it is not likely they will operate longer than six months since there are other race tracks available. She said that they split the racing between different tracks. Additionally, she added that the races also depend on the weather. Ms. Ornelas said that initially it will operate less than six (6) months but if there is more demand then they will install the permanent sanitary facilities. Commissioner Wailes referred to the letter from the Colorado Racing Commission and asked if there is a sanctioning body that the applicant operates within or is there a league that they are a part of. Ms. Ornelas replied no. The Chair asked if there was anyone in the audience who wished to speak for or against this application. Charles Klausner stated that he farms Triple K and they own the property to the west and to the south of the proposed facility. He added that he is also speaking on behalf of Fred Linnebur who lives to the east of the proposed site, and Bruce and Paul Klausner of Klausner Inc, which is located to the north of the site. Mr. Klausner expressed concerns regarding traffic, number and size of events, traffic safety, trash from the facility and trash along the county roads, noxious weeds, blowing dirt and erosion, drinking and 2 gambling, reduction in property values, and the width of county roads and transporting farm equipment. Mr. Klausner provided letters from the Linneburs and Klausner Incorporated for the record, as well as signatures of landowners who are opposed to this proposal. Commissioner Sparrow asked how far Charter Academy School is from this site. Mr. Klausner said it is four (4) miles to the west of the proposed site. Commissioner Sparrow asked Mr. Klausner to describe the soils in that area. Mr. Klassner said it is blow sand and added that as you go south there is more clay in the soil. Paul Klausner, Klausner Inc, 7622 CR 79, stated that the farm equipment now takes up the majority of the road and with this added traffic it is a safety concern. He added that they are also concerned with spraying their fields when events would be held. Ms. Ornelas stated that they will have a chain link fence that will help control any trash from leaving the property and she added that they will constantly be picking up any trash. With regard to the concern of spraying fields, she said that good communication would help that. She said that there would be three to five large events per year with up to 100 cars for those events. Ms. Ornelas stated that they would like to work and communicate with the neighbors on their harvest and spraying times so they won't plan on having any races during that time. Ms. Ornelas said that everyone who attends the racing events talks to her or her father and they will be sure to tell them which route to take to this site. Commissioner Jemiola asked if large farm equipment has the right-of-way on the roadways. Bruce Barker, County Attorney, stated that when those vehicles are on the roadway they are considered to be a vehicle and are to be given the right-of-way. Commissioner Smock referred to previous testimony regarding parking along the county road and asked how the applicant will address that. Ms. Ornelas said that there will be security guards identifying the parking patterns and no one is allowed to park along the county roads. She added that the races are staggered so not everyone would come or go at the same time. Ms. Petrik said that they can require a specific haul route be established and included in the Improvements and Road Maintenance Agreement, if the Planning Commission would like to consider that. Commissioner Jemiola asked the applicant if they would agree to this. Ms. Ornelas replied yes. Mr. Jemiola said that the applicant is in agreement to it and feels it would be good to include in the Improvements and Road Maintenance Agreement. Commissioner Johnson said that he shares the same concerns of the neighbors with regard to the soil type as well as fire safety in the area. He added that those roads with that type of soil are not built to handle that type of traffic. Commissioner Sparrow agreed with Mr. Johnson regarding the soil type and added that when this sand is exposed with no growth on it the wind will blow it. Ms. Ornelas said that the open space will be left with the current vegetation as it is and added that the only bare land will be the track. The Chair asked Staff if they had any changes they would like to make to the staff report. Ms. Light reminded the Planning Commission about the issue of portable toilets and bottled water based on the time of operating. She added that Development Standard 3 or Development Standard 13 could be amended depending on what time frame is determined. Ms. Light clarified that if you wanted to amend Development Standard 13, the second sentence could be deleted. The Chair asked the applicant if they would be willing to install permanent facilities or would they prefer operating a total of six (6) months. Ms. Ornelas said that they would agree to operate six months or less initially and then in the future they could apply for an amendment to install permanent facilities for operating over six (6) months, if needed. Commissioner Wailes suggested deleting the first sentence in Development Standard 14 and striking Development Standard 15. Ms. Light said that the amendment would be acceptable for Development 3 Standard 14; however she recommended leaving Development Standard 15 as they applicants would be required to install the permanent water supply, if operating over six (6) months. Commissioner Wailes said that he feels with the impact this use could be stretched to 10 or 11 months. Commissioner Cross agreed with Mr. Wailes.

Mr. Kisker referred to the location of the buildings and said that they are concerned with the railroad being blocked from the car traffic as they approach this crossing. He added that it is an uncontrolled railroad crossing. Commissioner Sparrow asked if there is a stop sign at the crossing. Mr. Kisker replied no and asked to consider lowering the speed limit along County Road 13. Janet Ross, 6248 CR 56, stated that they are not really opposed or in support of this case. She would like to see vegetation on south side which would block their view of the facility. She is concerned about the railroad tracks and crossing as well and would like to see some controls put into place. 5 Mr. Koldeway said that they will be providing landscape screening to screen the RV buildings from County Road 13. He said that there is some existing landscaping that will remain on site. He added that they could provide some trees that would block Ms. Ross's view of the facility. Commissioner Sparrow asked the applicant how many chambers they intend to have for the pet crematorium. Lori Hiatt, 1166 Madison Avenue, Lot 96, Loveland, Colorado, stated that she is Mr. Jackson's business partner. She said that currently they have three (3) machines; one machine has four chambers and the other two machines are single chamber machines.

She said that they do intend to reach 15 chambers and all the machines are inspected annually. Commissioner Wailes asked what could be done with the railroad crossing. Mr. Howard said that the railroad has done some diagnostic work at this location but doesn't know that the results are available on what the outcome was on if this would warrant a signal currently. He said that discussion about sight distance is a good one as there could be some visual block from the large proposed buildings. Mr. Howard suggested placing a condition of approval to read "The applicant shall submit a traffic narrative that addresses potential site restrictions with north bound CR 13 and NW bound UP train traffic."
