SPECIAL USE APPLICATION ADDENDUM
DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSAL
Applicant proposes to build and operate or lease three (3) separate buildings of
approximately 9,000 sq. ft. for oil and gas industry companies in and near the Grass
Mesa Area for sales, storage and repair of equipment and sales, storage and handling
of materials and natural resources. Use would include storage of oil and gas industry
related vehicles of various size, equipment and supplies, a repair shop and
maintenance facilities, warehouse, and office facilities on building envelopes not less
than two (2) acres for each of the three buildings.
Uses will be conducted as follows:
See paragraph B of the Industrial Operation Impact Statement, Tab 2 of the
Application, for a list of materials and equipment to be stored.
There shall be no on-site storage of diesel, gasoline or other hazardous
substances other than those used in small solvent bays incident to the cleaning of
equipment. These bays shall be stored inside the facility buildings and all solvents
used therein disposed of off-site by duly licensed contractors.
There shall be no fabrication operations conducted at any of the facilities.
Until the water system is approved by the Colorado Department of Health and
Environment as a community water system, there shall be no more than twelve (12)
on site employees in all three buildings.
It is anticipated that the maximum number of bathrooms per site would be 1
1/2 bathrooms - the full bathroom containing one shower stall.
Hours of operation are proposed to be 24 hours although operations that would
generate excessive noise will be limited to 8am to 6pm Monday through Friday.
UTILITIES
Electric power service is provided by Xcel Energy and is in place. The contact is
Tillman McSchooler at (970-244-2695). There is a 25 kV 3-phase electrical feeder that
is available to service the sites. This feeder is located on the east side and adjacent to
County Road 319. A connection to the overhead line will be required to service each
site.
Natural Gas Service is not currently available. There is a medium pressure(60 psi) 4 -
inch gas main approximately 1 mile from this property. This gas main is located on
the south side of Airport Road in an existing 15 -foot easement adjacent and parallel to
1
• •
Airport Road. Extensions of this main are not planned at this point and time,
therefore, liquid propane tanks will be used for each site.
Telecommunications will be provided by Qwest. The contact is Gary Gibson at
(970-244-4308).
Domestic water will be provided from a well located on the property. The location of
the well and existing pipeline to the sites is shown on the site plan. A copy of Well
Permit 61926 for the well is included in Tab 4 of the application. The well is owned
jointly by application and two other adjacent property owners. A copy of the Well
Sharing Agreement, which includes cross easements for the well and pipelines is in
Tab 4.
The amount of water which can be used is the maximum amounts provided in the
Contract with West Divide Water Conservancy District. A copy is included in Tab 4.
The contract is limited to 207,000 square feet of commercial buildings and 184,000
square feet of irrigated lawns and gardens. Each party to the Well Sharing
Agreement has one-third of the allotment or water for up to 69,000 square feet of
commercial use and 61,000 square feet of irrigated lawns and gardens. Applicant
proposed to construct 3 buildings not more than 9,000 square feet each, a total of
27,000 square feet, with irrigation of not less than 3,000 square feet per building.
Water usage estimates are attached to the West Divide Water Contract in Tab 4 of the
Application. Applicant's share of the total commercial consumptive use is .39 acre feet
per year. With not more than a total of 12 employees using 50 gallons per day, the
total consumptive use would not exceed .10 acre feet per year.
Wastewater treatment will be by individual sewage disposal systems designed for
each building. These can handle up to 2,000 gallons per day. The systems will be
engineered by Tom Cronk of Cronk Engineering, of Grand Junction, Colorado, to
comply with applicable state requirements for multiple systems on property under
single ownership.
LANDSCAPING AND FENCING
As requested, additional information is provided herewith for the landscape issues of
this project. In general, three (3) different types of landscaping are being proposed.
Maintained Lawns: Irrigated green belt areas of not less than 1,000 square feet per
building and including lawns, shrubs and trees will be provided and maintained at or
near each access from County Road 319. It is requested that as a part of this area one
sign indicating the tenant and address of the building be included on a four (4) foot tall
by eight (8) foot long monument. This proposed monument should be constructed
using the moss -covered rocks from the site. Although it is important to maintain the
overall natural appearance of the property, it is believed this feature can be provided
2
• •
with minimum impact. It will be the property owners' responsibility to maintain this
area as well as all other landscaped areas proposed.
County Road 319 Frontage: At a minimum, an area 10 feet in width shall be
constructed including sections of river rocks into the property boundaries adjacent to
the County Road 319 R.O.W. This feature shall extend through the entire north/south
side distance of the building site. Trees and shrubs consistent with the detail provided
will be included in the areas of the river rock section. The river rocks will be placed on
a material designed to prevent weeds. The space between the river rock plantings will
be seeded with a low to medium height grass that will not require watering, mowing
or otherwise maintained. Occupants of the site may construct fencing behind this area
for security purposes pursuant to the requirements identified in Tab 2 on page 4 of the
Application.
Landscaped Berms and Fencing: Along County Road 319, berms shall be
constructed which are 3 to 4 feet in height. It is anticipated these berms will be
around 20 to 30 feet in length and irregular in shape. Low to medium height grasses
will be planted that require little if any water requirements in order to be properly
maintained. Obscuring fencing, which may be vinyl, shall be installed on the berm up
to 5 feet in height.
Storage Areas: The storage yard areas are to be graveled and properly maintained
for dust and weed control. This shall be the responsibility of the Occupant and
overseen by the property owner. Storage areas and the items stored shall be
maintained in an orderly manner. Fencing shall be permitted for security and storage
yard areas. Chain Link or similar standards will be required. Hog -wire with steel
posts shall be considered as an example of similar standards. Wood fencing materials
shall not be allowed. Fence heights shall be limited to six (6) feet.
The proposed development of this property shall first and foremost consider the visual
impact of adjacent and area landowners. Sketches of typical berms, signage and
obscuring fencing are attached.
INDUSTRIAL OPERATIONS IMPACT STATEMENT
The Industrial Operations Impact Statement is contained in Section B of Tab 2 of the
Application. As stated above, the uses permitted on the property shall not include the
fabrications of materials and equipment. Lessee shall be required to comply with the
limitations and restrictions set forth in the Industrial Operations Impact Statement
and the Industrial Performance Standards set forth in Section C of Tab 2. The use
limitations are such that there is no generation of excess vapor, dust, smoke, glare or
vibrations. This is accomplished through the screening and landscaping of each site,
the graveled and maintained storage yards and the requirement for repairs to
equipment within the enclosed shop area of each building.
