Vote was taken and the motion carried unanimously . • IV. FINAL PLAT: SOLAR RIDGE SUBDIVISION LOCATION : 19th Avenue and 24th Street John Given presented the final plat of Solar Ridge Subdivision . Commissioner Cummins asked to sec a copy of the approved preliminary plat . Mr . Given showed this to the Commission and noted that the major change to the plat is that a portion of 19th Avenue was built hut never dedicated so this is now being done . It 'was therefore necessary to widen lot 2 . Commissioner Cummins noted that there • had been some problems with lot 2 discussed at the time of review of the preliminary plat . Jay Freese explained that Waldorf School will probably be keeping lot 2 . Chairman Dietz expressed concern for the private drive in the area which has been named, as well as the access to the property . He asked if the lots still meet R- 1E requirements . Mr . Given replied that they do . Commissioner Clift asked if drainage for the area has been taken care of. Mr . Freese replied that drainage will be handled as each individual lot is developed. Commissioner Clift asked if the grade of the street would cause problems . Mr . Freese replied that it would meet minimum requirements . Max Karner , City Engineer, commented that the street does meet all the requirements although it will not be a typical street . Chairman Dietz asked for further clarification on the handling of the drainage . Mr . Karner explained that each lot will have to pro- rate drainage from the street for that lot so the water will still run off the property hut no more than would histori- cally drain off . Commissioner Cummins made a motion to approve the final plat. Commissioner Roeth seconded the motion. Vote was taken and the motion carried unanimously. VI REFERRAL FROM COUNTY: Revised Preliminary Plat of Bird Subdivision LOCATION: 2420 71st Avenue John Given explained that this item has been reviewed previously and the Commission recommended denial , with the request that provision he made for access to adjoining property . The present plat accommodates this request . Chairman Dietz asked if 24th Street is anticipated to extend through this property . Mr . Given pointed out the location where 24th Street will likely extend through . He also recommended that 70th Avenue and local streets developed from 24th Street he the primary access to future interior subdivision . Mr . Freese suggested that a temporary turn-around should be shown where the street is stubbed . Mr . Given noted that the geometries should he redesigned according to the City Engineer . Commissioner Rocth made a motion to recommend no objection to the proposed preliminary plat . Commissioner Clift seconded the motion. Vote was taken and the motion carried unanimously . mtmoRnnaurri W I o To Chuck_CLunl iffe., _AssistantNovember_8,_19Zg Zoning Administrator Date COLORADO From Wayne S. Smyth. Wel_d_County_Engineer_ subject: Bird Subdivision_-Bevise _Preliminary_----.______ __ As per your request, I have the following comments concerning Bird Subdivision: 1. Approximately 200 feet north of the proposed location is a crest in 71st Avenue. This crest is 4 feet higher than the grade at the access . This partially obstructs visibility and could be a safety hazard. 2. I object to the proposed traffic pattern and the individual lot retention areas. Yet, considering the subdivision' s inclusion in the Greeley comprehensive plan, these items should be referred to the City of Greeley. 3. The County should not accept the street for maintenance with a tailwater ditch along the south property line in the right-of-way. This would be a maintenance problem for the County, and eventually, the City. • Wayne S. Smyth Weld County Engineer WSS;sar . c3jf 4) �tjlt kAoV c. 90.—WeAe v m cssys +I \\� tide I. 'JOY;-1'/.

There are approximately 11.999 acres t' divided into 8 40,000 sq. ft. or more lots. Each lot will be single -family with roughly 1400 sq. ft. minimum Ranch style houses or equivelant with limited number of out buildings allowed. Each lot will be serviced by Greeley Gas, Poudre Valley Rural Electric Assoc. , Mountain Bell, City of Greeley water, and use septic systems as a means of sewage disposal. Presently, located on the south boundary is a natural drainage ditch which drains approximately 60 acres of ground to the due west of 71st Avenue and runs through a 15" squash pipe onto our property. We plan to tile. this ditch for approximately 100 feet and then take it into a "French Drain" arrangement approximately 100 feet past the eastern most point of the proposed road into the subdivision. Since the land is free and clear, we plan to use the final subdivided product as collateral. The money will be obtained through private funds as well as lending institutions. We will use a surety bond arrangement to guarantee complete improvements.

Bird Lott Realty 916 11th Avenue Greeley, Colo. 80631 The soils information you requested for land located in the SW% of Sec. 16, Twp. 5N, Range 66W, Lillian V. Bird, owner, is classified as Otero sandy loam, 1 to 3 percent slopes, and Otero sandy loam, 3 to 5 percent slopes. These are very good soils to construct homes, small businesses, etc. on. There is no shrink-swell problem to hinder the construction of concrete footing walls, side walls, etc. These soils take water good. The soil survey interpretations on Otero sandy loam that are attached are to assist in gaining knowledge of the physical features of the soils, but do not necessarily replace the need for on-site investigations or tests for special physical hazards. A soils map and tables for physical and chemical properties and sanitary facilities for the soils are also included. If any further information is needed, please feel free to contact me.

FIL lliis soil is used almost entirely for irrigation and is suited to all crops adapted to this area. Some conservation practices such as land leveling, ditch lining and pipelines may be needed for proper water application. All methods of irrigation are suitable with furrow irrigation the most common type used . Barnyard manure and commercial fertilizers are needed for top yields along with maintaining good organic matter content. In nnniriIgated area:; this soil is suited to winter wheat, barley and sorghum. Host of the area is planted to winter wheat which is alter— kys.., na;.ed with summer fallow to allow moisture accumulation. Normally, `` l's' — precipitation is too low to make beneficial use of fertilizer. 1 i 's.... I [ howeigo Wildlife is an important secondary use, with these soils best suited for openland wildlife. Habitat favorable for ring-necked pheasants, mourning doves and many non-game species can be developed by establishing wildlife I 4rw+4. areas for nesting and escape cover. For pheasants, the inclusion of undisturbed nesting cover is vital and should be included in plans for habitat development. This is especially true in areas of intensive agriculture. Rapid expansion of the Greeley and .surrounding area has resulted in urbani- zation of much of this Otero soil. it has excellent potential for urban and recreational development. Its primary limiting feature is the moder- ately rapid permeability in the substratum and the hazard of contamination of ground water from sewage lagoons. Slope will necessitate some added • i`j� cost for site preparation. Lawns, shrubs and trees for beautification will 4 do well .

Also included in mapping were some areas with sandstone and shale above 60 inches. moss Typically the surface layer is brown sandy loam about 10 inches thick. The underlying material, to a depth of 60 inches, is a pale brown calcareous fine sandy loam. t Permeability is rapid. Available water capacity is moderate. Effective a .x rooting depth is 60 inches or more. Surface runoff is medium and erosion hazard is low. This soil is used almost entirely for irrigation and is suited to the counnonly grown crops in the area. However, perennial grasses and alfalfa or close growing crops should be grown at least 50 percent of the time. Close grown crops and pasture can be irrigated with contour ditches and corrugations. Furrows, contour furrows and cross slope furrows will work on row crops. Sprinkler irrigation is also recommended. Minimum tillage and crop residue utilization will help control erosion. Fertility maintenance is important. Crops grown on these soils respond to fertilizer applications of phosphorus and nitrogen. w+• Lamm The potential native vegetation of this soil should be based on taking half and leaving half of the total annual production. Seeding is advis- able if range is in poor condition. Sand bluestem, sand reedgrass, switchgrass, sideoats grama, blue grama, pubescent whentgrass and crested wheatgrass are suitable for seeding. rile grass selected should 1 meet the seasonal requirements of livestock. For successful seeding, a clean, firm, sorghum stubble-prepared the growing season prior 1O seeding- or a firm, prepared seedbed and grass drill should be used. Early spring �IV4M seeding has proven most successful. Windbreaks and environmental plantings are generally suited to this soil. Soil blowing is the principal hazard to establishing trees and shrubs. This hazard can be overcome by cultivating only in the tree row and by C0+!1•1• leaving a strip of vegetation between the rows. Supplemental irrigation "• s: may be necessary at the time of planting and during dry periods. Trees that are best suited and have good survival are Rocky Mtn. juniper, eastern redcedar, ponderosa pine, Siberian elm, Russian olive and hackberry. Shrubs best suited are skunkbush sumac, lilac and Siberian pea shrub. Wildlife is an important secondary use, with these soils best suited for openland wildlife. habitat favorable for ring-necked pheasants, mourning doves and many non-game species can be developed by establishing wildlife areas for nesting and escape cover. For pheasants, the inclusion of undisturbed nesting cover is vital and should be included in plans for habitat development. This is especially true in areas of intensive a .

The purpose of this investigation was to determine those soil conditions and characteri- stics which would affect the utility of the soils and foundation design of the proposed structures. Data gathered through field and laboratory work are summarized and tabulated in Exhibit Nos. 1 through No. 5 attached. FIELD INVESTIGATION Test borings were made May 19, 1978 at the locations shown on Exhibit No. 1 , to obtain data concerning existing soil conditions and to obtain samples for laboratory use. Six holes were drilled with a truck mounted power auger equipped with a four inch bit. Penetration data were gathered using the Standard Penetration Test, ASTM D 1586. This test is made by driving a two inch split spoon sampler with a 140 pound weight falling 30 inches. The blows required to drive the sampler twelve inches are referred to in Exhibit No. 2 as blows per foot. The test borings were located to best reflect representa- tive general conditions at the site, and to obtain specific data at each location sampled. Test borings were taken to the approximate depths below the surface shown U on Exhibit No. 2. Disturbed samples of each soil type encountered were obtained for laboratory analysis. As each boring progressed, a log was kept on which was recorded such information as field classification of soils, sample locations, depth to groundwater table, if any, and other pertinent data. These logs are reproduced on Exhibit No. 2. -1- a LABORATORY INVESTIGATION The laboratory phase of the investigation included the verification of field soil classification, determination of soil gradations by mechanical analysis, Atterberg Limits, natural moisture content, and consolidation- swell charcteristics of foundation material . These test results are summa- rized on Exhibit No. 5. SITE CONDITIONS The site is located west of Greeley, Colorado, approximately 3 miles. It is bounded on the west by 71st Avenue and is approximately one half mile north of U.S. Highway 34 By-Pass. The topography is gently rolling with surface drainage in an easterly direction to a drainage swale located adjacent to the east property line. There is approximately 30 feet of relief over the area investigated. Adequate drainage is available provided that proper grading and landscaping are observed. GROUNDWATER Evidence of groundwater was encountered at the depths shown on the accompany- ing Test Boring Log Exhibit. It is anticipated that groundwater will fluctu- ate as much as 4 feet during wet and dry cycles of the year. Basement construction may have to he limited to that portion near list Avenue. In any event, peripheral drains should be located around footings with discharge into a "French Drain" system constructed in sanitary sewer trenches. If a sanitary sewer system is not planned, groundwater can he carried off through sub-drains underneath water distribution lines. I -2- 4 111 SUBSOILS Our analysis reveals the soils consist of eolian deposits of silty sands over silty clays with occassional gravel deposits. The silty sand layer is relatively thin and in most cases will be penetrated during site grading and building construction. Our consolidation curves of the silty clays indicate no expansive soils are present. The site is underlain by the Laramie Formation of sandstone-claystone, but the depths to bedrock indi- cate no contact should be anticipated. BUILDING FOUNDATIONS Our analysis of field conditions and test results indicates the use of conventional footings located below maximum frost penetration. Separate areas could be del - neated with different bearing capacities assigned; however, this approach sometimes gets confusing and the lrads are switched in such a manner that excess settlement occurs. Consequen�ly, one bearing capacity will be assigned, thus eliminating any costly design errors. Footings should be designed for a maximum allowable bearing capacity of 2,000 pounds per square foot including live load. Settlement in the order of three-quarters of one inch may be anticipated. FLOOR SLABS AND OTHER SLABS ON GRADE The foundation soils show no tendency to shrink or swell ; however, since little uplift pressure or differential settlement is required to cause unsightly cracks in floor slabs, the following precautionary measures are � . deemed necessary: 1. Compact material underneath floor slabs at or slightly above optimum • moisture content. -3- 1; . 4 4 2. Preclude the entrance of an outside water source underneath slabs. 3. Eliminate underslab plumbing where possible, and where unavoidable thoroughly pressure test and take other precautions necessary to minimize leaks. 4. Separate floor slabs completely from bearing walls, columns and footings. 5. Appropriate provisions should be made in large floor slabs for shrinkage cracks. TREATMENT OF FOUNDATION SOILS Precautions should be taken to assure that the moisture content of the foundation soils is maintained at a relatively constant level . Excava- tions shall not be allowed to remain open long enough to allow appreciable drying below natural moisture content, and the exposed foundation material should be protected from wetting from any outside source. Wetting of foundation soils should be prevented after construction. Methods of accomplishing this include thorough compaction of all backfill around structures, provisions for discharge of roof downspouts and other water collection systems well beyond the limits of all backfill , and any other procedures deemed necessary to maintain a stable moisture content. Exca- vations should be made only large enough to provide necessary working space in order to hold the area requiring backfilling to a minimum. SULFATE RESISTANT CEMENT Analysis indicates a sulfate concentration in excess of 0.10 percent water soluble sulfate (SO4) in the soil samples. Therefore, Type II cement should be used in concrete exposed to this soil . -4- I LIMITATIONS The exploratory data presented in this report were collected to help develop designs and cost estimates for this project and thus, may not represent adequate information for indicating underground conditions for contractor bidding or construction. We recommend considering exploratory work to reveal underground conditions well enough to enable contractors to more accurately evaluate conditions for bidding and execution of work after designs have been prepared. Professional judgements on design alternatives and criteria are presented in this report. The judgements are based upon our evaluation of actual conditions encountered at the location indicated herein, and upon our extrapolations thereof together with our interpretations of conditions generally characteristic of this area. We do not warrant the accuracy of such extrapolations and interpretations beyond the limits of the tests performed or where actual physical conditions oere not observed. Test borings drilled for this investigation were spaced to obtain a reason- ably accurate representation of subsurface conditions for design purposes. Variations from the conditions disclosed which were not indicated by the test explorations frequently occur and quite often these variations are Ksufficient to necessitate modifications in design. Therefore, if different materials are encountered the owner or builder should be certain that the foundation conditions are adequate and within the scope of this report prior to proceeding with any construction. 111 I -5- .4 I a J Under the above conditions, it is important that we inspect the subsurface materials exposed in excavations to take advantage of all opportunities to recognize differing conditions and minimize the risk of having unde- tected conditions which would affect the performance of the facility.

BIRD PROPERTY GEOLOGIC HAZARD INVESTIGATION SCOPE This report is the result of our geologic hazard investigation of the titled property in Weld County, Colorado. The purpose of this investigation was to find which, if any, of the geologic hazards named in H.B. 1041 are present at this site and to determine their effects on the proposed development. LOCATION The site under investigation is approximately three miles west of Greeley ii the West Half of the Southwest Quarter (W1/2, SW1/4) of Section 16, Township 5 North, Range 66 West of the Sixth Principal Meridian, Weld County, Colorado. This area is bounded on the west by 71st Avenue and 2,200 feet north of Highway 34 Bypass. S FIELD INVESTIGATION Test borings have been made at this site and soils reports, drill logs and laboratory analysis have been developed for the site separately. TOPOGRAPHY The site is gently rolling prairie at an elevation of approximately 4,880 feet. The general slope is easterly. S S GEOLOGY The surface geology of the area consists of a mantle of light brown eolian silts with fine sand. The soil layer runs to over 15 feet in thickness. The bedrock is sandstone which is believed to be part of the Laramie Formation. The results of the soils testing form a part of this submittal . tGEOLOGIC HAZARDS A geologic hazard is defined in H.B. 1041 as "a geologic phenomenon which is so adverse to past, current and foreseeable construction or land use as to 1 constitute a significant hazard to public health and safety or to property. " t Several of the hazards listed in H.B. 1041 are not applicable to this location because of its gentle topography. A. Seismic Activity - All of Colorado is in Seismic Risk Zone 1 (Minor Damage). There is no evidence or history of seismic activity in this area. B. Ground Subsidence (Hydrocompaction) - Ground surface collapse can occur in wind deposited silts as a result of excessive wetting of dry soils with ia high void ratio. The thin eolian deposits on the surface of this site are not expected to pose any hazard of this nature. Some slight settle- ment will occur as the dead load is applied during construction. C. Expansive Soil - The volumetric expansion of "swelling clays" is usually the result of increasing water content of the clays. If the water content remains uniform, no expansion or shrinkage will occur. The results of the laboratory testing show no tendency for volume change. D. Water Table - This site has a high water table condition. The source of this water is believed to be seepage originating from the Greeley- Loveland Canal and the Boomerang Ditch. The depth of water is identi- fied in the soils report. Groundwater does fluctuate considerably r throughout the year and will create problems during and after construc- tion if provisions for lowering and stabilizing groundwater are not initiated. MINERAL RESOURCES There are no known economic resources located on this site. CONCLUSIONS A. The geology of the site is a relatively thin mantle of wind deposited fine grained alluvial material overlaying weathered sandstone. INB. The only significant geologic hazard is a high water table. Properly designed subdrainage systems can minimize property damage. Basements are not recommended for the lower half of the site. Respectfully submitted, C-E MAGUIRE, INC. lig Arthur F.

As discussed at the luncheon meeting with the two planning commissions , there appears to be at least two alternatives to the proposed Bird Subdivision . They are : 1 . Extend cul de sac to north property line , thereby providing for north-south circulation to adjoining unplatted properties . There would be no significant change in the density or lot configuration of the Bird Subdivision. Under this alternative the 24th Street collector would be routed north , around the wet area , as suggested in the Comprehensive Plan . 2 . Extend the 24th Street Collector directly through the Bird Subdivision or along the north property line . At this time an analysis of cost and design constraints to constructing 24th Street has not been made by the Public Works Department . Since either of the above alternatives would involve modifica- tion of the preliminary plat , I recommend denial of the preliminary plat as submitted. A denial recommendation will allow developer to redesign for elimination of the long cul de sac and inclusion of an improved circulation system that connects the Bird property to adjoining properties . • • /' . • a �Vh O 'i • 1 `,"- Ill' fl 51 o ti v - • i . -NV 1 \ , X _.

RECORD O1 PROCEFDI,gGS Planning Commission Minutes September 28, 1978 The Planning Commission of the City of Greeley , Colorado was called to order by Chairman John Dietz . Those present were Commissioners Clift, Cummins, Keirnes , Modlin, and Roeth. • I . APPROVAL OF MINUTES Commissioner Cummins made a motion to approve the minutes of the September 12 , 1978 meeting as mailed. Commissioner Keirnes seconded the motion. Vote was taken and the motion carried unanimously. 0I1 REFERRAL FROM WELD COUNTY: PRELIMINARY PLAT OF THE BIRD SUBDIVISION LOCATION: 2420 71st Avenue John Given, Current Planner, explained that this is an area that the Commission has looked at in the past and noted its general location in relation to the Westridge and Peterson Subdivisions . The Commission had previously reviewed a rezoning request on this property and recommended denial to the County. The property was rezoned, however, and the present proposal for development of the subdivision provides for eight lots with a cul de sac having access dii ctly onto 71st Avenue. This cul de sac exceeds subdivision standards which would allow a maximum length of 500 feet. This problem was discussed at the time of rezoning , as well as the fact that other properties in the area are developing along 71st Avenue before City services can be made available. This development does not provide access to property further off of 71st Avenue which is not yet developed. The undeveloped interior parcels are becoming increasingly more restricted as far as circula- tion. John Given suggested that by lengthening the street proposed for the subdivision and adding a north/south street stubbed to adjoining properties the problem of the cul de sac can be eliminated and this will also provide for future additions to the street. Another problem which he pointed out was with the extending of 24th Street (a collector) out to 71st Avenue. Twenty-Fourth Street could be run through the middle of the Bird property. This could be done without reducing the number of lots platted on the property. Another alternative would be to wait until the next property is platted and consider the 24th Street location at that time. Martin Bird told the Commission that the way the subdivision is set up the cul de sac could be opened up for access and explained how this could be done. He also noted that it would be more expensive to run the street over wet land than to take it over higher ground. Commissioner Keirnes - asked who the owners of the property surround- �I ing this parcel were. Mr. Bird pointed out the properties and who owned them. Jay Freese commented that possibly the City and County need to sit down with the property owners in the area and discuss where the streets will be. There is a problem with using the 1j marshy area to the east for this street. Commissioner Roeth questioned whether the Commission should be looking at the alterna- tives as well as the proposal before them. John Given replied that he was pointing out the alternatives as they relate to this particular proposal . Commissioner Keirnes questioned whether the City has a master street plan. Mr. Given replied that there is such -a plan, but it does not define exactly where the street should be. Mr. Bird explained other possible alternatives for streets in the area. Commissioner Cummins suggested deferring action on this preliminary plat until a determination can be made between the City and County on where 24th Street should be located. He felt it was necessary to work out some plan of action for the area, and questioned whether this type of meeting between the two planning bodies could ACCORD OF I• IIOC LI I) II-IU i ______-_ _. ._ _. _ ___ .—_ _—_. r __ -'__ _.-._ , Planning Commi: an Page 2 . ytember 26, 1978 be arranged in the near future. Hr. Given replied that he would try to set up such a meeting and outline possible areas of dis- cussion. Commissioner Cummins made a motion to defer action on 1 this matter until such time as this joint meeting can he held and some determinations made. Commissioner Roeth seconded the motion. Commissioner Keirnes suggested that it would he helpful if -adjoin- •• n ing property owners had some ideas as to how the streets running through their individual properties could be joined. Mr. Freese expressed strong support for the proposed joint meeting. Commissioner Keirnes noted that the Commission wouldn' t he ' i comfortable taking action on this item with these questions left 1 unanswered. Vote was taken and the motion carried with Commis- sioner Clift abstaining due to arrival after the discussion on this i 1 item had begun. • III . REFERRAL FROM WELD COUNTY: REZONING AGRICULTURAL TO ESTATE • LOCATION: 37th Street and 35th Avenue Mr. Given explained that this request involves a 151 acre parcel I located in the southwest corner of 37th Street and 35th Avenue. ! It is a rectangular parcel running along 37th Street and is proposed for rezoning to allow for residential development. This item was reviewed in A.R.T. and other than comments regarding street I dedications and regulations for subdivisions , staff had no objections. Commissioner Clift questioned whether there is an irrigation ditch on this piece of property. Max Karner, City Engineer, explained that the irrigation ditch that Commissioner ! Clift was referring to is one mile east of this site. Commissioner I Roeth made a motion to recommend no objections to the proposed rezoning. Commissioner Keirnes seconded the motion. Vote was taken and the motion carried unanimously. IV. REFERRAL FROM WELD COUNTY: REZONING AGRICULTURAL TO COMMERCIAL LOCATION: U.S. 85 and Weld County Road 64 (Mumper Hill Road) Mr. Given told the Commission that this property is located along the west right-of-way of U.S. 85 north of County Road 64. He also noted that 11th Avenue is an arterial and U.S. 85 is an expressway. ) I . The lot is 89 X 1490 feet with primary exposure to U.S. 85. The existing use is non-conforming since it has been used for sale of agricultural equipment. The distance between 11th Avenue and U.-S. 85 is equivalent to a city block. The frontage onto County Road 64 is 89 feet, and there is an existing driveway on the t property. The proposed zoning would allow development which will lead to increased congestion at the driveway which is at the !! intersection of County Road 64 and U.S. 85. Commissioner Keirnes questioned whether he should abstain from conversation on this item since-he had previously discussed with 4 Mr. Dean the value of this property. Assistant City Attorney Ron Lambden said that a conflict occurs if there arc financial or contractual interests. Mr. Keirnes said he had none. Mr. Melvin Dinner, attorney representing the property owners , 4 told the Commission that this property was bought by Mr. Hammonds many years ago and during his ownership was used for sale of agricultural equipment. Since his death, the family has discon- tinued this use, but the non-conforming status has been with the land for over 24 years. There is a building presently on the site which is used for storage, display, and sales of these agricultural type goods . After Mr. Hammonds use was discontinued, Law Equipment leased the property for similar uses until just recently. At the present time Dr. Gibbs is using the property for irrigation 1 type sales of equipment and the owners would like to rezone the property to put this use in conformance. The property is slightly under three acres in size and has no water rites . j I I e ) • ADMINISTRATIVE REVIEW TEAM September 13, 1978 TV . REFERRAL FROM COUNTY : BIRI) SUBDIVISION • LOCATION: 2420 71st Avenue • The proposed subdivision is of a 12 acre parcel recently rezoned over the negative recommendation of the Planning Commission . At the time of rezoning , a concern was expressed for the lack of . consideration for development of a circulation pattern for the entire southwest quarter of the section . The property is also , it was noted at the time of zoning , located in the 2010 Growth Ring . The proposed subdivision creates eight lots and is served by a single cul de sac coming off of 71st Avenue . There is an existing residence developed on Lot 1 . The cul de sac is approximately 760 feet in length , which exceeds the City Subdivision Regulations standards . Darryl Alleman commented that the proposed water line tapping into a City line in 71st Avenue should be an eight inch water line . Fire Chief Bruce Forbes expressed concern for the length and configuration of the cul de sac. John Given commented that the subdivision had been sent over for preliminary review and the following comments were made to the County Planning Department : 1 . The City discourages cul de sacs off of an arterial street . 2 . The cul de sac exceeds the City ' s 500 foot maximum length . 3 . The proposed subdivision does nothing to improve area wide circulation and therefore furthers a pattern of small subdivisions having access only onto 71st Avenue . Max Karner commented that the development of this parcel of land provides an opportunity to .=extend 24th Street , a collector in the Westridge Subdivision, westward to 71st Avenue . The same density it appears could be achieved . Development of the subdivision to more efficient densities is constrained by the lack of municipal sewer services in the area. paul c. weld county school district director of facilities and planning service center 2204 5th avenue greeley, Colorado 352-1543 x 53 24 October 1978 Mr. Chuck Cunliffe Department of Planning Services 915 Tenth Street Greeley, Colorado 80631 Dear Mr. Cunliffe: We have reveiwed the plat for Bird Subdivision and have no comments or objections relevant to this item.

Fortner, Director Weld County Planning Commission Weld County Centennial Center 915 10th Street Greeley, Colorado 80631 The following comments are made as requested by you for the review of a Preliminary Plan of Bird Subdivision, to be located in part of the SW-4 of Section 16, Twp. 5N, Range 66W, Weld County, Colorado, on 71st Avenue, approximately 1/2 mile north of U.S. Highway 34 bypass. 1. Soils Suitability: The subdivision area is made up of two soil types. These are Otero sandy loam, 1 to 3 percent slopes, and Otero sandy loam, 3 to 5 percent slopes. Both soils are considered prime agricultural land when under irrigation. Recommendations made by C-E Maguire, Inc. , in the sub-soil investigation report should be followed. 2. Adequacy of Planned Drainage Systems: A. Subsurface : Due to the presence of ground water, it is doubtful the proposed septic systems will he adequate due to the possibility of inundation and contami- nation of the ground water. A complete subsurface drainage plan should be consi- dered and evaluated for feasibility of lowering the ground water table. Each individual dwelling peripheral drain, as recommended by C-E Maguire, Inc. , could then be connected. Both Mr. Bird and C-E Maguire elude to the use of "French Drains" to eliminate ground water. It has been our experience with subsurface drainage that a definite unobstructed conduit is needed to carry and discharge ground water. The "French Drain" will not provide the necessary conduit and does not function adequately with increased water flows as may be found during wet years. B. Surface Drainage: Mr. Bird states in the "Summary of Bird Subdivision" that a natural drainage ditch comes into the southwest corner of the property. If we are not mistaken, this is the surface drainage from the west adjacent land. Mr. Bird proposes to take this underground and dischage it into the ground water. With the already present subsurface water, it would be better to establish a sur- face drainage channel properly graded and vegetated to carry the storm surface flows. This will get the surface water over the area faster, safer, and will not aggravate the present ground water problem. The surface channel could be incorpo- rated into the overall surface drainage design for the subdivision. It is our recommendation that a surface drainage plan be prepared for the subdivision to determine the point of discharge from the property. Since the surface drainage does enter a natural stream channel to the east of the property, it may be neces- sary to construct a sediment detention structure during the subdivision construc- tion phase. With the current laws, PL-92-500, Sec. 404, regarding point source discharge, it may be necessary to file for a discharge permit. Until a surface drainage plan is prepared, this determination can not be made. J a Page 2 - Bird Subdivision Review 3. Flooding Potential: The subdivision is not located in a flood prone area and will not create a flood hazard, provided that an adequate surface drainage plan is instituted along with proper grading and landscaping. 4. Vegetative Protection and Erosion Control Plan: It is our recommendation that a vegetative and erosion control plan be submitted with the final plan to show what measures will be used to lessen the potential for wind and water erosion during the construction phase. It should also state what conditions will be expected once construction is completed to maintain soil loss at minimum levels.

Hutchinson, Weld County Department of Engineering Subject: Bird Suhxivision Preliminary Plat As per your request, I have the following crnments concerning the proposed Bird Subdivision: 1. The turn between Lots 4 and 8 may not be treated as an intersection. As per Section 8-2 C(1) of the Weld County Regulations, the street must be designed with a 100 foot minimum center-line radius. This requirement is based on a number of safe engineering practices: a.) Sight hazards posed by landscaping or structures. b.) Hazardous negotiations of sharp curves caused by rain, snow, or ice. c.) Stopping sight distance hazards due to improper headlight illumination of the roadway at night. Studies have shown that most drivers do not adequately adjust their speed for such hazards. It is therefore, the County's responsibility and the developer's duty to protect these drivers from their own unsafe practices whenever possible. 2. Drainage retention facilities should be incoiyorated at the northeast corner of the subdivision. The retention area should be designed to retain the volume difference between the 100-year event in the developed condition and the 5-year storm in the undeveloped condition. The release rate should not exutd the runoff rate of the 5-year storm. 3. The "French Drain" arrangement along the south property line should not be allowed to remain in the County right-of-way. This proposal would only build in maintenance problems, which the County should not be held responsible for.

An emission permit is required for control of fugitive dust during the excavating and clear- ing operation. 2. Each lot will require an individual eight foot hole and perc test. This is due to the possibility of high groundwater throughout the proposed area. (See page 2, Groundwater; Subsoil Investigation and Geologic Hazard Investigation Report, prepared by C. E.

The Commission also noted that the length of the proposed cul de sac exceeds the City Subdivi- sion Regulations ' maximum length of 500 feet. I have suggested that an alternative to the cul de sac may be an east/west local street that ties into a north/south local street stubbed into adjoining properties . The Commission also looked into the potential of extending 24th Street through the middle of the Bird Subdivision . I will work with you to set up a meeting at the earliest possible date between our two planning commissions . Until that time , the Planning Commission has requested that action on the Bird Subdivision be deferred . if you have further questions , please feel free to contact me .

The potential problems associated with this development are very similar to those described in our review letters of Westridge Filing #5 and Peterson-Alexander Subdivision, which are adjacent to this property. Major concerns for this area include: 1 . High ground water tables which fluctuate considerably throughout the year. These ground water tables cause difficulty for sewage disposal and basement construction as described in our previous review letters . 2. Soils in this area are susceptible to hydrocompaction and should be handled appropriately. 3. ' Individual sewage disposal of the common septic tank leach field type may not be feasible throughout much of the area due to both of the above problems . The application in question does mention the high ground water table and the potential for hydrocompaction, but does not relate these adequately to difficulties in foundation design, basement construction, or sewage disposal . Until solutions to the above potential problems are presented, we recommend that this subdivision not be approved.

Please refer to the attached rough sketch of the proposed development area and the surrounding land. It makes sense to run the road straight through from West Ridge to 71st Avenue. This would give access to land on the north as well as the Bird land. The road would also be easier to build, especially through the low land in the pasture area. The access onto 71st Avenue would be much safer. Continuing the road on west from this point would be better for future development of the land on the west side of 71st Avenue. The road as proposed will come within ten feet of our home. This creates a lot of problems for us, like noise and safety. I believe this to be an invasion of our privacy and will disturb our peace. The access onto 71st Avenue will be dangerous because of the hill to the north. Our lane is about two hundred feet farther south and we find the approaching traffic from the north very hazardous. I would appreciate you considering these ideas, for I believe the positioning of a road from West Ridge to 71st Avenue is very important in the future development of this whole area.
