DAHL SEPTEMBER 25, 1996 NOTICE IN POSTING REQUIREMENTS FOR BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT HEARING ON APPEAL FROM ZONING ADMINISTRATORS' DECISION You have asked for my opinion concerning the notice in posting requirements which must be followed by the Board of Adjustment in processing an appeal of your decision of the Coda of Laws as including certain activities within the "principal permitted uses," in the C-1 Zone District. I have reviewed the applicable portions of the Code of Laws and conclude that the requirements of Sections 26-6(F112j, (3f and (41 apply to and must be followed by the Board of Adjustment in processing such an appeal. My analysis in support of this conclusion is as follows: You, as the Zoning Administrator (also the Director of Planning and Development] have authority to interpret the meaning of terms in the Zoning Code (Chapter 26 of the Code of Lawsl, including whether a use not specifically enumerated is to be considered "a permitted use, an accessory use, a conditional use or a spacial use." Code Section 26-35. An interpretation made by you may be appealed to the Board of Adjustment under Section 2-61(cj: "In exercising the above-mentioned powers, the board may, in conformity with all other appropriate provisions of law, reverse or affirm, wholly or partly, or may modify the order, requirement, decision or determination appealed from and shall make such order, requirement, decision or determination as in its opinion ought to be made in the premises, and to that end, shall have ail the powers of the zoning administrator." (emphasis supplied) This appeal authority is also found at Code Section 26-6(D)(1 j: "All requests for a variance, waiver, temporary permit or interpretation, as described herein, shall be made by the filing of an application, together with the required fse and supporting documentation." (emphasis supplied] Code Section 2-61(d} requires a public hearing on all applications and appeals before the Board of Adjustment (including appeals on zoning interpretations made by the Zoning Administrator}, and requires compliance with public notice and hearing procedures: GED15302T735025.1 89/25/96 18:46:57 RIGHTFAR 4.88-> 383 235 2857 RightFAR Fage 883 "(d} The board of adjustment shall hold a public hearing on all applications and appeals, in accordance with public hearing notice and procedure requirements set forth in Section 26.D and F of the Zoning Ordinance, . ." These requirements are also referenced in the introductory paragraph to Code Section 26-6(D}: "Where a public hearing is required, notification of such hearing shall occur by newspaper publication, posting, and certified letter as prescribed in subsection F(1 )." Code Section 2-61 {D] requires a public hearing on all appeals, including appeals of code interpretations made by the Zoning Administrator. Accordingly, notice of the hearing must be undertaken by all three of the required means found in Code Section 26-6{F}: Newspaper publication [26-6{F](2}] Posting [26-6(F}{3]1 Certified letter [26-6(F){4}] I conclude that for all matters upon which the Board of Adjustment must conduct a public hearing, all three forms of notification (posting; newspaper; certified letter to adjacent property owners} must be satisfied, as a result of the express requirements of Code Section 2-61(dl and 26-6(D) [making reference to Code Section 26-6(F}l.' I understand and appreciate that appeals of an interpretation otthe Zoning Code made by the Planning Director may have city-wide consequences, in that it is likely that you asthe Planning Director will follow the decision of the Board of Adjustment in the matter when similar situations are presented. However, I do not agree that this city-wide impact of a specific case changes the nature of the case as one which concerns a specific parcel of property and for which it is possible {and required, by Code Sections 2-61 {d) and 26-6{D}] to provide certified letter notice to adjacent property owners. Neither of those two sections make any such distinction or in any way suggest that the three forms of required notice for Board of Adjustment hearings may be reduced simply because the impact of the Board's decision may affect other situations in the future. For the foregoing reasons, I conclude that all three forms of notice of the Board`s hearing in the matter (newspaper, posting, and certified letter to adjacent property 'I recognize that the introductory paragraph of Section 26-6{Di refers to the "newspaper publication, posting and certified letter as prescribed in subsection (F)(1 ]," and that, in fact, subsection (F}{1 y actually refers to the requirement of a neighborhood meeting. However, 1 believe that the express intention of this reference is clearly to require all three forms of notification, as all three forms, including certified letter, are expressly stated. The reference to subsection {F](1) should, of course, be to subsections (F112}, (3], and (4], but this miscitation will not be held to change the express meaning of the sentence in which it is found.

I recommend that the Board of Adjustment continue the matterto a future meeting in order to provide the opportunity for all of the notice requirements Yo be met.

October 24, 1996 We are pleased to provide the enclosed information about the Munchiando Companies. We have been using our resources to pursue the environmental contracting market in the $100,000 to $1,000,000 range. We have been active in the Denver area since 1988, primarily in underground storage tank remediation and the transportation of hazardous waste. The Munchiando Companies have completed numerous projects in a highly professional manner that is uncommon in projects of less than $1,000,000. The attached letter of references from Remediation Technologies, Inc. and Denver Public Schools are typical of the enthusiasm we have received for our professional approach to project performance and administration. Currently, we can bond projects up to $1,000,000 in size. We maintain liability insurance of $1,000,000 and pollution liability insurance of $5,000,000. Attached please find our hazardous waste transporter permit and EPA I.D. document. Our fleet is constantly maintained in top condition and all trucks are equipped with cellular phones so we can provide our client with quality equipment and service. We presently own ten tractor/trailer units consisting of end dumps, box vans, and flatbeds. In addition, we now have two vacuum tankers for hazardous liquids and we have also added roll off containers, and a roll off trailer to our fleet. Besides our fleet being properly maintained mechanically it is also kept free of the contaminated/hazardous products we transport. Our equipment leaves our yard free of contamination. Then goes to its first destination to pick-up the material needed to be transported to the proper facility for disposal. Upon reaching the disposal facility the contaminated/hazardous material is off-loaded and the truck and trailer are then decontaminated on site before ever leaving the facility. By the time our trucks get onto the road to head back to our yard they are as clean and free of contamination as any other truck that never hauled the hazardous material. We are not licensed to store hazardous material on site and never plan on applying to be licensed. We believe in keeping our yard and equipment free of any contamination and therefore the last thing we want is to have it stored on site for any potential incidents that would contaminate a lot more than our trailer during transportation. In order for a facility to be able to accept hazardous materials they have to prove to the state they operate in that each vehicle that comes in with the hazardous material will indeed leave free of contamination. They along with us transporters are monitored by the EPA to make sure we are indeed following the 5040 TABOR STREET WHEAT RIDGE, COLORADO 80033 October 24, 1996 Page 02 of 02 Munchiando's SOO strict guidelines required to all of those handling hazardous materials. To date our record with the EPA is excellent. If it wasn't we would not be allowed to renew our yearly permit. An average of 10 to 15 employees handle field and office operations. All personnel have completed 40 Hour OSHA 1910.120 -Hazardous Materials Handling and Response training and are familiar with the use of level A through D personal protective equipment. Our personnel are trained and ready for emergency response. We pride ourselves in the quality of service we provide and hope this information will be useful in evaluating the unique experiences that Munchiando represents. Please do not hesitate to call if you have any questions or require additional information.

This project involved the excavation of both hazardous and non-hazardous waste with transportation to disposal facilities and treatment plants. Your crew was able to adjust to changes encountered during excavation and the availability of a diverse trucking fleet provided the flexibility required to meet established deadlines. We are pleased to inform you that the project was both on schedule and under the budget established by the National Park Service for field work at this site. Munchiando Companies played a major role in the success of this project. We would highly recommend Munchiando Companies for environmental remediation work or transportation services. It is a pleasure to work with people dedicated to providing a quality service at competitive rates. We look forward to working with you in the future. Sincere Andrew B.

The excavator, Greg Munchiando had very litCle standby time and Roybal provided very good over.9ight of the project. Field tesCs were adequate to define the extent of contamination, but the testing strategy was reasonable. I t}>,ink all personnel at Roybal worked well with t}>e State ll1;Q, Yellowstone and wii:h the Grand Teton Park staff. Mark and luzdy did a good job of tracking casts and giving the Park Service the information they needed to close out the fiscal year. We received a complete cost breakdown of the cleanup and the costa are reasouable. Roybal'e staff and the excavator. worked longer )~t)urs which )yelped cut down on per diem and saved money on the project. Roybal and the excavator were well prepared for the job when they came, there were no holdups caused by noC having everything they needed. Roybal demonstrated. flexibility `in' accommodating the Parks requests and variable situations and they were sensitive to Park operatiolis. If we Dave the opportunity!to lase Roybal for. similar work in the future, I would not have an objection. 3f anyone consi.dPring work to be provided by Roybal would like to call me I would be very willing to provide a recommendation.

Because of an internal delay with our Purchasing Department, we were faced witft an extremely short dime frame, (4 weeks) to remove 44 heating oil storage tanks from 2b district .facilities' prior to tfte start of school. Munchiando Excavating, Inc. was able to provide tfte expertise and project scheduling to accomplish this very large project witftin the limited time lute. I personally supervised the removals at eacft facility for Denver Public Scfrools. I 5Yd5 very impressed with the equipment resources and expertise of the operators from Munchiando Excavating in accomplishing this project in such a safe and effective manner. Several of the removals required the operators to remove the tanks from locations where access was extremely limited. In fact some competitive bidders ttad proposed closure in place for several of the tank sites, (at a significantly increased price). Munchiando Excavating 'was the "low bidder" on this project, and I was impressed by the unqualified recommendations that I received when I investigated this firm prior to t}re award of tfte contract. After workirty SYitlr hluncltiando Excavating I can assure anyone tfrat ttrey have been placed on my list of preferred contractors for tfris type of service. The success of this project was directly attributable. to the "}rands-ort" conrmitntent of h1r. Greg Munchiando and representatives of Hallmark, Inc. ttre in-house engineering firm.: for Munchiando Excavating. The. degree of expertise and field experience offered via tftis close SYOr.king relationsftip with hunchiando and Hallmark is in no small way responsible for the successful conclusion of this 'major project. \~J flunchiando Excavating also handled the excavation, transportation, anu delivery to an approved disposal site for ail contaminated soil that was remediated during this tank removal project. Total project value for• this project including contaminated soil removal, disposal, UST removal, and site: restoration is in excess ofi $ 500,000. Again, I would not hesitate to recommend hiunchiando Excavating to cu;; person or agency who is interested in identifying qualified firms for tli5 type of service. I would be happy to discuss project particulars with :u~y person seeking references, and I have informed h1r. c4unchiando that he ca;; certainly add me to his impressive list of satisfied clients and list me as a reference when seeking other similar projects.

Planning Division Staff Report Page 2 Case No. WA-96-32 DESCRIPTION OF REQUEST Carolyn Ritz of 5115 Swadley Street has appealed the decision of an administrative official (Glen Gidley, Planning & Development Director) regarding use of a property located at 5040 Tabor Street. This appeal is made pursuant to Wheat Ridge Code of Laws Sec. 26-6(D)(4), copy attached as Exhibit A. Although Mrs. Ritz has appealed the decision as applied to a specific property (5040 Tabor Street), the Board's decision will apply not just to 5040 Tabor Street, but to all Light Industrial (I) zoned properties throughout the City. Although no written arguments were submitted by the petitioner making specific claims of errors by the administrative official, staff has spoken with the petitioner and several residents of the neighborhood, and will try to summarize the complaints as follows: 1. The use is incompatible with adjacent residential areas to the north. 2. The trucks will travel through their neighborhood. 3. The new building is ugly. 4. The equipment will still be seen over the screening fence. 5. Parking of semi-trucks and trailers is limited to three by subsection 26-23(C)(6). 6. The use is not a "Permitted Principal Use" but rather a "Special Use" under subsection 26-24(E)(20) Contractor's Plant and Storage Yard. II. STAFF FINDINGS OF FACT 1. On 6-18-96, Greg Muchiando, owner of 5040 Tabor Street, applied for a building permit to construct a 6,000 square foot metal shed for warehouse purposes. Permit No. 3453 was issued on 7-17-96 after being reviewed and approved by the Public Works Department, Arvada Fire District, Planning and Zoning Division and Building Inspection Division (See attached Exhibit B.1 2. Before issuing the permit, planning staff asked Mr. Muchiando his intended purpose for the building and how he intended to use the property. He indicated that the building would serve as inside storage and repair/service shop in support of his EXCAVATION AND TRUCKING business. He indicated that his office would use the existing building on the front of the property, and that the balance of the property would be used for storage and service to his construction equipment, implements and trucks. Once the new building is completed, various items stacked outside would be either used inside, or stored inside of the new building. Other than the construction equipment, implements and trucks used in the business, there would be no outside storage. 3. This exact same business was located on property three blocks to the east at 12096 West 50th Avenue, which property was also zoned Industrial (I). The Board of Adjustment, in case No. TUP-93-8, reviewed and approved a request for a temporary office trailer to support the use of the site by Muchiando Excavation & Trucking. The case before the Board was a "temporary building" for a "permitted use". The Board didn't question the validity of the use in the Industrial (I) zone district at the 4ime. 4. Planning staff concluded that Mr. Muchiando's use is a "PERMITTED PRINCIPAL USE" in the Industrial (I) zone district pursuant to subsection 26-24 (B)(1), copy attached as Exhibit C. This refers back to the C-1 and C-2 district. Staff specifically concluded that the Muchiando use was listed in the C-2 zone district regulations under subsection 26-23.(b)(8). "Construction eouipment and heaW equipment sales. Planning Division Staff Report Case No. WA-96-32 Page 3 Although Mr. Muchiando doesn't sell or rent his equipment, he does store and service his eouipment on 4he ro e Additionally, since the semi-trucks and trailers are "related to the transportation needs of business conducted thereon", staff concluded that subsection 26-23(c)(6) doesn't apply. 5. Even if it was concluded that this use was not specifically listed as a "Permitted Principal Use", which staff believes fl is under 26-23(6)(8)., subsection 26-23(6)(22) provides an alternative finding as a "Similar Use". 6. Mr. Muchiando has obtained permits to construct a paved parking lot for employees and customers and a permit for a screening fence and a berm to screen the outside storage areas from view by neighbors to the north. He has also agreed to install additional landscaping. (See site plan attached Exhibit D. 7. The fenced area where outside storage will be allowed is 245 feet away from the nearest residence to the north. 8. The adopted Comprehensive Plan -Future Land Use Map shows this property classified as "Industrial", III. CONCLUSIONS 1.

'~ ~f c _ f. _ - - , alzcc~~-~ ~j ' 1~ , 5040 Tabor' Presentation Before the Wheat Ridge Board of Adjustment n~ 1 Good evening ladies and gentleman my name is~"l~ ~ I live at ~~ /~ -~ ~ ld~ [Identify on overhead where you live.] I have lived here for years. Before the city of Wheat ridge was incorporated. I was secretary for the committee to incorporate and worked with Mayor Ed Anderson on the effort. I took an active part in the incorporation because Jefferson County and Arvada had designated the area around my neighborhood as Industrial. I3eayy_ Industrial. It was during this period that the Coors glass plant was built, The neighborhoodjoined forces and fought the Industrial rezoning's at the County but to no avail. We did not have protest rights at that time. It was because of this treatment that the neighborhood thought they could be better protected if we became a part of Wheat Ridge. Shortly after the incorporation of the city Wheat Ridge developed a Land Use Plan which eventually became the Comprehensive Plan. Again our neighborhood was very active in the process. Joining with the Fruitdale Civic Association to fight the Industrial designation around our Homes. We attended many many, meetings. But only succeeded in getting the industri 1 secti f the code to be listed as Light Industrial. That was over twenty years ago e were to at that time within five years everything would be developed as Light Industrial. Over the years development has come in. We have been to all the hearings that came before the city and at times have spoke. For the most part Wheat Ridge has been very responsible in requiring Special Use Permits when things were enumerated as Special Uses under the Light Industrial section of the code. Sec. 26-24 sub sec. E. on oa eg 38.1 of the code.. [Which I understand may be missing from your packet] Because of the carefiil scrutiny of the City we have developments such as Kunz, Medved, Volant Skies and other such quality uses. When we noticed activity on the property at 5040 Tabor in June we immediately contacted our city representatives to find out what was happening. Being familiar with the Industrial zone classification we knew that a Contractor's plant or storage yard was an allowed use only with special use permit. Sec. 26-24 Sub E number 20 on page 1740 of the code. [you may not have this page either] When we notified the city they went out to look at the property and said that the use was allowed under the C1 and C2 zone districts therefore it was allowed under the Industrial Zone District. We were shocked at that decision. I remind the Board the Code does not have a straight Industrial Zone. Sec. 26-24 is titled. "Light Industrial District (D." Definition. "Sec. 26-24 (A~ Intent and Purpose. Pg. 1738 "The intent of this district is to permit the use of previous Industrial (I)-zoned property for commercial and light industrial (I) uses. Rezoning to Industrial (I) -Zoned District classification shall not be permitted; however, existing Industrial (I)-zoned property may be developed and used in accordance with provisions set forth herein. The code goes on to say that: (1) Any use permitted in the Commercial-One District (C_i)or Commercial- Two District (C-2) as a permitted principal use. This is all the further the Planning Administrator read. Had he read further he would have been aware of the Special Use Permit required under, Subsection E. (20)~g. 1740 . Now is a good time to speak about some definitions as listed in the code book, Sec. 26-22 Commercial-One District (C-1). (A) Intent and Purpose: This district is established to provide for areas with a wide range of commercial land uses which include office, general business, and retail sales and service establishments. This district is supported by the community and/or entire region. Sec. 26-23 Commercial -Two District (C-2) (A) Intent and Purpose: This District is established to provide for areas with a wide range of commercial land uses which include office, general business, more intensive retail sales, wholesale businesses, and light manufacturing. This district generally depends on the entire region for the market area. Mr. Gridley, the zoning administrator, is using this section, Sub. Sec. (B) Permitted Principal Uses: Subsection (6) to justify his decision. But, let me read this to you It states, "A building contractor's service shop and storage yard, incidental to an office/showroom principal use. This would include carpenters, painters, roofers, electricians, plumbers, heating and air conditioning contractors and similar uses which do not use heavy equipment in the business, but, however, do have vehicles tools. machinery and supplies used in the business stored upon the premises....' It goes on to talk about out side storage. Look at the pictures! The property at 5040 Tabor is being used for heavy equipment storage and there is no office/showroom connected with it! This is not a Commercial venture, It is a Contractor's yazd. Mr. Muchiendo even said at a neighborhood meeting on Aug. 29, 1996 that he was licensed as a Environmental Contractor. He cleans up hazardous waste spills. This ladies and gentlemen is a Heavy Industrial Use that belongs in a Industrial area like we see in Cotnmerce City and along I- 70 East of Denver. Not within 100 feet of an established residential neighborhood, or in a Light Industrial area. This use is heavy industrial! I have elaborated on this because if the zoning administrators interpretation stands true then we could have this same type of development on any Industrial property in the city as well as on C1 and C2. Wheat Ridge could be truck city U.S.A! As there are only six parcels in the City zoned C2 it is very unlikely that the uses associated with this zoning category were intended to spill over into the other zone districts. 5026 Ward Rd. 8995 W. 44th Ave. [the old Wheat Ridge Lumber now Chem-Lawn] 5500 W. 38th Ave. 3894 Wadsworth 7815 W. 39th Ave. Do we really want the City of Wheat Ridge to set this type of precedent. Yes, I said precedent, because if the zoning administrators ruling is not overturned by this Boazd then this kind of Development could occw without notice anywhere in this city. Perhaps in your neighborhood. Right now it only would be allowed on 6 parcels. Of which only one is probably big enough. The Chemlawn property. Looking under the code that defines businesses for taxation purposes. Sec. 22-21 Business is defined as all activities engaged in or caused to be engaged in with the object of gain, benefit or advantage directly or indirectly. Mr. Gidley will claim that Mr. Muchiendo has operated a business in the city behind Jolly rancher. (Point to Overhead) for five years. Yet when we tried to find a sales tax, business license, or contractors license we could not find one. I think Mr. Muchiendo's business was not noticed because the neighborhood thought his equipment was part of the Jolly Rancher Candy Plant. Which has been Iocated on Ward Rd. since azound 1953. Obviously the city didn't know or I assume he would have had to pay his use tax as every other business in the city is required to do. Mr. Muchiendo did not take out a Business License unit we broti~lif it to the attention of the city. Construction Equipment: is defined as "All pieces of portable machinery, vehicles and other types of equipment used directly or indirectly to build, erect or otherwise construct buildings roads,. bridges or any construction project or to aid in such building or construction. Mobile Machinery: Those vehicles, self propelled or otherwise, which are not designed primarily for the transportation of persons or cargo over the public highways, and those motor vehicles which may have originally been designed for the transportation of persons or cargo over the public highways, but which maybe only incidentally operated or moved over the public highways. This definition includes but is not limited to, wheeled vehicles commonly used in the construction, maintenance and repair of roadways, the drilling of wells and the digging of ditches. Now that we all understand the code. Let me tell you what Sec. 26-24 E ,under the Licht industrial district special uses savs. "The following uses shall be permitted only upon approval of the Wheat Ridge Planning Commission and city council, following procedwes as set forth in section 26-6 (B); all special uses shall be subject to the performance standazds as set forth in subsection (G) hereof: Had Mr. Gidley read further in the Light Industrial District he would have seen this. Remember the land in question is zoned Light Industrial. Several uses require a special use permit I will only elaborate on the ones that directly relate to the property in question. Sub Sec(2)(al on pa eg 1739. of the code book. Parking of more than _ ree (3) commercial truck-tractors and/or semitrailers on anv parcel or lot, where such vehicles are not related to the transportation needs of the business conducted thereon, shall require approval of a Special use permit... The intent of this provision is to limit those areas in which truck- tractors and/or semitrailers used in commercial ventures may be pazked and is not intended to apply to any noncommercial use of such truck-tractors and/or semitrailers. Mr. Muchiendo filled out his Business license as a trucking company. These trucks are used in his commercial contracting business to haul hazardous waste. He indicated at the Neighborhood meeting that the trucks were stored or parked at this site. A contractors storage lot. Another truck stop. He needs a special use permit! Sub.sec. (c) goes on to say... "Any property upon which a special use permit is granted pursuant to subsection (2) (a) above shall be conspicuously posted to indicate the authorization for the parking of commercial truck tractors and /or semitrailers thereon. It shall be a violation of this Code of Laws for any commercial truck tractor and/or semitrailer to be parked or stored upon property not so posted..." Mr. Muchiendo by his own admission at the neighborhood meeting on Aug. 29th has ten such trucks he is currently parking on this property. It is not posted because he does not have a Special Use Permit, Sub sec (4) o>Y 1739-1740 Manufacturing, processing , warehousins or a combination thereof of the follo_ wing sub. sec. (f) Transpiration equipment. Needs a Special Use Permit! Sub sec (20) Contractor'splant or storage vazd. Mr. Muchiendo is a Contractor by his own admission. He needs a Special Use Permit! Mr. Muchiendo uses this land zoned T/i _ht Industrial to store his heavy equipment and }us ten semi-trucks and other materials in his Environmental Contracting business as registered with the E.P,A. All of these uses require a special use permit under the Wheat Ridge City Code. Sec 26-24 Light industrial. Mr. Gidley cannot look to other sections in order to circumvent the Special Uses as outlined in this section. Mr. Muchiendo should have been told he needed a special use permit in order to operate a contractor's storage yard on this land at 5040 Tabor. The code is clear it was written so as to prevent this kind of business from operating next to residential. Mr Muchiendo needs a Special Use Permit. If this Board does not reverse Mr. Gidley's decision you will be endangering every neighborhood that has "Licht Industrial" zoning to the same intrusion as our own neighborhood. Though, Mr. Gidley will tell you that Mr. Muchiendo has the right to this use because he was behind Jolly Rancher for five yeazs. I remind you that Mr. Muchiendo did not have a Special Use Permit, Business License, Sales Tax License, or a Contractors License. What he had on the Jolly Rancher property was a Temporary Use Permit for a temporary office trailer. He was using this land in violation of the code the same as he is using 5040 Tabor in violation of the code. Mr. Gidley will tell you he is the professional and knows and works with the Wheat Ridge City code every day. Well, even Mr. Gidley can error and his error is destroying the integrity of our neighborhood. Thank you.

The applicant's house is particularly affected by the multiple tenant usage of the adjacent group home due to its construction of substantially all glass on the west wall. 3. The appellant°s yard is approximately 4-5 feet higher in elevation. 4. The cost of planting 8 foot Evergreen or deciduous trees sufficient in height would be prohibitive. 5. The 8 foot section of fence would essentially be invisible from the street. Motion was seconded by Board Member HOWARD. Motion carried 7-0. Resolution attached. Chairman WALKER called for a five minute recess. D ~pA 96'~3~: An application by M. Carolyn Ritz, Et A1, for a request for interpretation to an administrative decision by the Planning and Development Director that a construction equipment storage and service facility is a use by right in the Light Industrial (I) Zone District. This interpretation involves a Light Industrial zoned property located at 5040 Tabor Street. Glen Gidley presented the staff report. All pertinent documents were entered into record, which Chairman WALKER accepted. Entered into record Section 26-23(B)(8-22) labeled Exhibit 'C'. Board Member ECHELMEYER asked which was here first, the industrial zoning of this land, or the R-1 and R-2 north of it, and Mr. Gidley answered he does-not know when the R-1 and R-2 was established, the industrial zoning of this property was during the early 60's and before the City was incorporated. Board Member HOWARD wanted to know when the latest change was made on the Comprehensive Plan, and Mr. Gidley replied there have been no changes in this particular area in terms of land use since 1976. There have been some changes in terms of the street Master Plan for this area. The applicant, Carolyn Ritz; 5115 Swadley Street, was sworn in. Ms. Ritz read into record fixhibit 'D' (see attached) explaining her position regarding this case. Chairman WALKER commented it would seem if a Special Use Permit were granted it would not change a thing in that area, the activity would still be taking place in that area near the houses, and wondered why a Special Use Permit WHEAT RIDGE'BOARD OF ADJIISTMENT MINUTES OF MEETING: October 24, 1996 PaSe 9 would make it okay: Ms. Ritz said she hopes that is not granted. She commented when she moved there in 1961, the land around was all farms. Board Member ECHELMEYER asked the applicant if she was involved in any activity with the City at that time, and Ms. Ritz said-they hired a lawyer to try and fight when the aforementioned farm went Industrial, but was overruled. This was all before the.City was incorporated. Board Member ABBOTT said what is being looked at tonight is if this type of-business can occur in this zone district, so Mr. Munchiando's licenses are really .not germane to the question here tonight, and Mr. Gidley answered yes. Chairman WALKER asked just what action can this Board take, and Mr. Gidley replied the action you have the authority to do is to overturn the zoning administrator's decision in terms of this being an allowed use. If the .Board overturns this decision, then Code Enforcement action will be taken against Mr. Munchiando if he does not cooperate and remove the use from the property. Different uses were discussed further. ( Board Member ECHELMEYER asked staff if Mr. Munchiando has to declare himself in a certain business and-apply for permits or licenses to operate, and Mr. Gidley answered any business doing business in the City should have a sales tax license. Mr. Munchiando has a business license now, but to his knowledge he did not have one before Ms. Ritz pointed it out. Board Member .ECHELMEYER asked if Mr. Munchiando is a licensed trucking company in the City, and Mr. Gidley said he knows he is licensed to operate. his business in the City. Board Member ECHELMEYER wanted to know if .there are any restrictions anywhere_in the City in the hauling of hazardous wastes, and Mr. Gidley replied there are federal and state requirements but none from the City. Board Member ECHELMEYER asked if there has been any compliance or non-compliance in this area, and Mr. Gidley. said there have been no complaints of any specific violations on this site relating to solid waste because it occurs elsewhere. There is absolutely no hazardous waste brought back to this site. The trucks are used to haul hazardous waste and Mr. Munchiando can address that issue. r WSEAT RIDG$ BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT t MINUTES OF MEETING: October 24, 1996 Page 10' Mr. Gidley said Mr. Munchiando claims to be approved by the federal government, however the City is not a licensing authority relating to that. Board Member HOWARD asked Mr. Gidley if he could explain how he differentiate between an 'allowable similar use' and one that is 'not objectionable to nearby property by reason of odor, dust, fumes, gas, noise, radiation,-heat, glare, vibration, traffic generation, parking needs, outdoor storage or use, or is not hazardous to health', and Mr. Gidley said those are the characteristics of uses that are looked at as it relates to a use that isn't specific. There are alot of uses that aren't specifically enumerated and Mr. Gidley gave examples. It doesn't matter what is in the vehicles, what matters is the use of the land. Board Member HOWARD asked in his consideration did he include what might be objectionable to the neighborhood,-and Mr. Gidley replied yes, based upon the above items, and not just objectionable because it looks ugly, or because people don't like trucks/trailers, or because there is outside storage, because those issues don't apply. This issue has to do with how the property is zoned. There was further ( discussion regarding hazardous materials and other ' undesirable uses. Board Member ABBOTT said the City will not permit the use for storage or-handling of hazardous materials without a Special Use Permit, but in this case they are not asking for. that, so there is no need-for a Special Use. They are storing and servicing their construction equipment and trucks relating to the business. Sandra Winsett, 11601 Ridge Road, was sworn in. Ms. Winsett had general questions regarding light and heavy industrial districts, the semi trucks that have not been moved in 6 months, off-street parking, and spoke on other industrial areas that are screened from view. Board Member ECHELMEYER asked if she had any concerns when the applicant was at his previous site, and Ms. Winsett said no because it was obstructed from view and not near neighbor areas. She did not see semis, trailers, buckets, fencing, -- shelving units and boards everywhere. The site was fenced and it looked to her to be a storage business. There. was no traffic problem because she said there was very little movement from that lot. There is truck traffic from this development occasionally now. 9VSEAT RIDGE BOARD OF ADNSTMENT MINIITES OF'MESTING: October 24, 1996 Page 11 Board Member ABBOTT questioned since upgrading the property is purely voluntary, how will it be enforced. Mr. Gidley replied there is a specific requirement on the building permit regarding outside storage being screened from view with a 6 foot high wall or fence. The voluntary part is the _ 25 foot berm and the landscaping with trees and shrubs. Board Member:MAURO wanted to know how this will affect other industrial parcels, and Mr. Gidley said any determination regarding not permitting semi trucks/trailers or storage of construction equipment will equally apply to .the rest of the Industrial zoned districts. Greg Munchiando, 5440 Tabor Street, was sworn in. Mr. Munchiando-stated he does not, store. or bring hazardous waste back to this site. He does this for a living and he hauls all over the United States.. The only thing he does in this . yard is-bring his trucks in for service and_send them back out_ They are a clean outfit and do a lot of work for-the EPA. Mr. Munchiando was evicted from. his :.other-site and had to move everything in a hurry to this property, but that was not his intention. They would have liked to have gotten the shop done and everything moved in. As it is now, he has no shop and everything he owns is in trailers. He cannot maintain his trucks-so this is costing him a lot of money. Board Member ECHELMEYER asked if he was a trucking company, and Mr. Munchiando replied yes. The hazardous waste _ consists of any kind of waste permitted by the state and federal government. They are a licensed hazardous waste transporter in the lower 48 states. The makeup of the waste is contaminated dirt (with gas, diesel, lead, arsenic, etc). The trucks are cleaned and checked__at the facility where they are dumped and are free of any debris. Everything is logged and tracked and they are audited by the EPA every year. Mr. Munchiando has offered anyone in the neighborhood or audience to inspect his site and--come in the office at any time. He is not ashamed or afraid to show anybody what he has or what he does. The site is ugly he agrees; but he will get things put away and feels then this issue will die. Chairman WALKER stated the equipment is-of specialty type and depending on the contract, this might be why some pieces of equipment are not moved. Mr. Munchiando agreed„ and said there is a wrecked truck that will be moved into the bays. Board Member ABBOTT asked Mr. Munchiando to state for the record that he is not an approved EPA waste controlled WHEAT RIDG~r BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT MINIITES OF MEETING: October 24, 1996 Page 12 substance storage facility, and Mr. Munchiando said he does not and never will store hazardous waste on Tabor Street. There is only one other facility in Colorado that can store hazardous waste-and that is Highway 36 at Last Chance. Board Member ABBOTT questioned the berming and screening in excess of the requirements, and Mr. Munchiando said he has agreed to and submitted a landscaping plan that will be attached to his permanent C/O. He elaborated on the plan. Board Member HOVLAND asked if he brought any material on the site at a11, and Mr. Munchiando replied no.. His concern is the trucks even entering the site with hazardous material. Mr. Munchiando said he also has trucks with gravel going in and out of the site. Trucks are not allowed to set more than 3 1/2 hours with hazardous waste off of a designated highway and they are tracked on their daily logs and have to submit the logs to EPA for audit. The trucks may come in to get fuel and then leave. Board Member ECHELMEYER asked as they grow do they anticipate 7 days a week with night operations, and Mr. Munchiando said his trucks leave all hours of the day but actually they have downsized. Any trucks going down Tabor Street do not belong to him, their trucks gb south out of Tabor and turn and go down the frontage road to Ward Road. S.R. Moyer, 5000 Tabor Street, was sworn in. Mr. Moyer is a neighbor on the south side and is in support of this request. Paula Vessa, 5170 Swadley Street, was sworn in. She spoke saying granting this will allow huge trucking companies into the C-2 and Light Industrial districts. She also feels this. will hurt their tax base and homes. She is against this request because Mr. Munchiando's property is an eyesore and has depreciated her property. She said a vote for Mr. Gidley's interpretation will have a great impact on the _ community and asked the board to deny the application. Michael P. Ritz Jr., 5011 Swadley Street, was sworn in. He feels the presentation was factual and honest. All was said that was needed to hear and the board has enough information to.make a good decision. They wanted to be incorporated so they could be properly represented by the City. Their homes are important to them and they would like for them to maintain their value. He said the area is not C-2, it is Industrial and they would consider PID. xe thanked the board for listening to them. ~ WHEAT RIDGk~ BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT MINUTES OF MEETING: October 24, 1996 Page 13 Chairman WALKER asked staff how long has this property been Industrial, and Mr. Gidley answered since 1964: Board Member HOVT•ATTn said on the list of non-permitted uses, there is the 'contractor's plant/storage yard', and what is the definition of that. Mr. Gidley said there is no definition in the code, however, a contractor's plant is - where there is cement and concrete; large mixers and equipment where they are processing something.- A large construction company where there are outside racks of forms and such. Mr. Gidley said the ordinance is not very clear and that is why somebody has to make a decision. H~ realizes this decision becomes much harder when the use is already there. The burden falls on the administratpr and they have to make a call from time to time. Taking a look at the kinds of-.equipment that was on the site and having discussions regarding screening and/or moving some of the stuff in side, they made the call. Based on that they made the determination that it is not a plant or contractor's storage yard. Board Member ECHELMEYER asked staff what the gentleman meant when he said they would consider a-PID, and Mr. Gidley replied there has been some discussion with council to completely do away with Industrial zoning and re-zone all 'I' properties to PID. All that does is say what is there. is there, but any major changes to buildings or uses. would __ require that the PID regulations be followed. Board Member ECHELMEYER asked if anyone could buy Industrial land and haul in trucks, equipment and buildings before the City asked what they are doing, and Mr. Gidley said yes they can but it would not be very wise. It would be much smarter for them to come and talk to the City. Discussion followed. No further .questions were asked. Motion was made by Board Member ABBOTT, that interpretation for Case No. WA-96-32, an application by Carolyn Ritz et al, be as follows: "It is found that the use requested of the City .by Mr. Greg Munchiando and as described by the City within the packet provided and during the hearing by Mr. Gidley, Director of Planning and.Development and Mr. Munchiando is permitted.
