City and County Staff Analysis

Consistency with Zoning and the I-25 Sub-Area Plan: The property is zoned Agriculture (A) Legacy Weld County. The zone district has existed on the property since before it was annexed into Broomfield in 2000. The legacy Weld County Zoning Resolution indicates that the intent of the Agricultural District is "to protect agriculture uses from adverse impacts resulting from uncontrolled and undirected business, industrial and residential land uses."

The property is subject to the I-25 Sub-Area Plan that outlines the permitted uses and designates this as a Transitional Residential area. The request is inconsistent with the land uses shown in the Sub-Area Plan. However, the use is permitted with a use by special review under the existing zoning.

Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan and Compatibility with Surrounding Uses:

The Comprehensive Plan designates this property as "Residential." The proposed RV storage facility is inconsistent with the Residential land use designation; however, the Weld County Legacy Zone district permits outdoor storage if a use-by special review permit is approved.

The applicant is proposing to amend the comprehensive plan map to designate this property as "Mixed-Use Commercial."

Consistency with Long-Range Financial Plan: The proposed use is inconsistent with land use assumptions identified in the long-range financial plan since the land use assumptions are for residential use. The proposal increases the expenditure to revenues ratio and increases the projected annual revenue at build-out.

Potential Key Issue:

  • Inconsistency with the Comprehensive Plan and I-25 Sub-Area Plan - Outdoor storage uses were not envisioned for this area. Transitional Residential is the intended land use. The outdoor vehicle storage should provide an adequate rationale for permitting the dissimilar use in an area designated on the Comprehensive Plan Land Use map as Residential within a gateway to the City and County of Broomfield.
