Council approves sale of land north of blade factory

BY SCOTT TAYLOR STAYLOR@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Construction-component manufacturer Clayton Properties will take over 52-acres north of Vestas Blades’ Brighton manufacturing plant, part of a deal between the windmill makers and the City of Brighton, councilors agreed Feb. 15.

The deal is part of the windmill manufacturer’s downsizing that was announced a year ago.

The company, Danish-based manufacturer Vestas-American Wind Technology announced in February 2021 that it plans to consolidate its footprint in Colorado, combining operations in Windsor, Pueblo and Brighton.

The consolidation means that the company will cease making blades for the company’s

towering windmills at the East Crown Prince Boulevard location, laying off 280 workers. The company will also cut employees at its Pueblo towers factory and Brighton nacelles factories by a total of approximately 170.

Councilors unanimously approved the deal, despite misgivings about Vestas’ decision to downsize their Brighton operation last year. The company had received concessions and tax benefits from the city that came with agreements to make street improvements in the area and construct a walking path on the southern edge of the lot. With the council approval settled, Clayton Properties is not responsible for those improvements.

“This three-way agreement between the City, the buyer and the seller essentially just assigns those development agreement obligations to the buyer and keeps the seller tied to the improvements that need to be with that property,” said Mike Tylka, Brighton’s deputy com-

munity development director.

Tylka said Clayton Properties Inc. intends to build a 216,394 square foot facility on the approximately 52 acre property for the manufacture of various construction related components.

City staff is reviewing building and site design, parking, landscaping, utilities services, drainage, sidewalk, roadway connection for the project now.

Councilors were skeptical about both the buyer and seller.

Vestas Feb. 21 decision eliminated 280 jobs in Brighton and also eliminated the sales tax revenue the city received. The company paid sales tax to the city for each blade it sold.

Councilor Adam Cushing said he was also skeptical of the buyer, Clayton Properties Inc. “I have concerns about precision building systems. In my opinion, Oakwood Homes, which is also owned by Clayton Properties, has not really been a great community partner in terms of SEE LAND, P3

After a random drawing at Fort Lupton’s City Council meeting on Feb. 15, four medical and retail marijuana businesses will move forward into a lottery for license approval.

The winners – by virtue of their numbers remaining in the drawing drum – were 1310 Factory Circle at 1310 Factor Circle; High Plains Strainz of Fort Lupton Inc. at 1330 Factory Circle; Centaurus Farms, 13400 Weld County Road 10; and Carretera Ocho Cinco, 7853 U.S. Highway 85.

Centaurus Farms was the only firm to apply for a medical marijuana license. All four applied for retail licenses.

“Moving forward into the lottery for a marijuana business license does not constitute approval of the business license, security plan, site plan, lighting plan, signage, parking or other land use and building components,” City Clerk Mari Pena told council.

Public hearings could begin in midMarch or the first part of April. Pena was not sure whether all four hearings would take place at the same time or whether the city would spread them out. In the event that one of the four drops out, the fifth business, White Pharmhouse on Weld County Road 23, will take its place.

Sagebrush development In the span of three votes, the council approved a change in the city’s comprehensive use plan, a rezoning of almost three acres of land and a site plan and planned unit development for the Sagebrush Apartments.

By the late 1980s a beef cow-calf herd and small feedlot to finish out beef calves and dairy steers was added to the additional farm ground when the farm expanded.

On April 13th, 1996 Oscar married Ruth Wagner and moved to her farm near Wellington, Colorado. Ruth, who had also lost a spouse to cancer, was Oscar’s constant companion for the next 25 years.

County seeks ideas for community funding Government officials looking for community feedback

BY BELEN WARD BWARD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

If you have ideas to make some improvements in your town, the Weld County Community Development Department wants to hear from you.

It’s an opportunity to voice concerns and improvement ideas such as sidewalk accessibility, better transportation or improving infrastructure, a new bike trail or elderly residents need repairs on homes, according to county officials.

This past year, Weld gathered feedback from communities about how to use its Community Development Block Grant allocation. The

City of Evans will receive some improvements under the 2021 allocation.

“We have an infrastructure project that is just getting started. The City of Evans received a CDBG grant this past April to improve Idaho Street within the city. The city recently went out for bids and I anticipate the project to start this spring,” said Don Sandoval, CDBG Program Manager.

Community Development Block grants are federal money allocated to communities across the country by the federal department of Housing and Urban Development. The state receives allocations, as do most counties and larger cities.

The money is meant to be used to develop viable communities by providing decent housing and a suitable living environment and by expanding economic opportunities, most often for low- and moderate-income residents. Block grant funds were granted this past

year for projects to improve public infrastructure, house restorations in two communities within Weld County.

“Residents letting us know what they want to see occur in their community is a big help to not only our CDBG program but the county as a whole,” Weld County Commissioner Chair Scott James said.

“The process of deciding what improvements to make in the county through this program can only be helped by valuable resident input.”

Comments from residents will be included in the 2022 Annual Action Plan, the plan that describes the county’s objectives based on how the Department of Housing and Urban Development wants the money spent. The plan must also say how these projects will benefit low-and moderate-income persons that need help urgently. Once the Annual Action plan is approved by the board, then it is submitted to HUD.

For more information about Weld County’s CDBG program, go to https://www.weldgov.com/Government/County-Programs/Community-Development-Block-Grant.

personally not in favor of any taxpayer concessions in this.

But other than this, there really is nothing more to talk about there,” Cushing said.

Councilor Clint Blackhurst agreed that he’s frustrated by

Vestas decision, but did not see a reason to deny the property transfer.

“But I am excited to see another good employer coming in to the city that will hopefully have a much longer standing and be

somebody we can work with in partnerships going forward,” Blackhurst said. “This is valuable land for development and I think we need to try to attract replacement jobs for the many that were lost with Vestas.”

CONNECTING WITH WELD COUNTY To share your ideas email Don Sandoval, Weld County Program Manager at dosandoval@weldgov.com by 5 p.m., February 22nd.

The email should include, your name, the town you live in, what community improvements are needed, if the need was met, how would it improve your community and what you think about community improvement projects currently being completed?

If interested in giving your ideas in person, the Weld County Board of Commissioners meet at 9 a.m. Feb. 22 in the Centennial Hearing Room of the Weld County Administration Building, 1150 O Street in Greeley.

Estate plans let you control your legacy Whether you’re wealthy or not, you need to do some estate planning – because when you do, you can control your own legacy. But what steps should you take?

First, you’ll need to identify your important goals. You’ll want to arrange for assets to go to your loved ones, of course, but there’s more to estate planning than that.

For example, who will make financial and health-care decisions for you if you become incapacitated? If you have minor children, who will take care of them if you’re not around?

And if your estate is large enough, how can you help protect your loved ones from income and estate taxes?

The solutions to these issues can involve a number of legal arrangements, such as establishing a will and a living trust and arranging for a power of attorney, to name just a few. And you’ll need to work with a team of professionals, including your tax and financial advisors and an estate-planning attorney.

By identifying your objectives and working with your professional team, you can create an effective estate plan – and help yourself take charge of your legacy.

Tree program Trees are available for purchase through the city of Brighton’s 2022 Tree program at brightontreeprogram.com. The idea is to encourage tree planting, species diversity and water conservation within the city, according to a statement.

Thirteen species are available through the program: American Linden, Chinkapin Oak, Cleveland Pear, Osage Orange, Thornless Hawthorn, Ohio Buckeye, Box Elder Maple, Discovery Elm, English Oak, Bur Oak, Hackberry, Northern Catalpa and Hotwings Maple. Each tree costs $75 (maximum of two trees per household).

This program is for Brighton residents only. Ordering is available until all trees are sold out. Trees will arrive in the spring. Participants are responsible for maintenance.

Purchased trees have to be planted within the city limits.

To place an order, go to brightonco. gov/treeprogram. Contact arhodebeck@brightonco.gov or call 303-6552048.

Walk with a doc Platte Valley Medical Center’s cardiac rehab team and Walk With A Doc will host monthly walks with Dr. Christopher Cannon, an interventional cardiologist at Brighton Heart and Vascular Institute.

This is a walking program for everyone interested in taking steps for a healthier lifestyle. After a few minutes to learn about a current health topic from the doctor, spend the rest of the hour enjoying a healthy walk and a fun conversation. It’s a great way to get out, get active and enjoy all the benefits that come from walking.
