SUBJECT: Annual Lease of Fulton Ditch and Lupton Bottom
Ditch Water Rights
On Monday, March 19, 2012, the Weld County BOCC will be presented with the highest bid
offers which were received for annual water rights lease of the County's 28 shares of Fulton
Ditch and 2 shares of Lupton Bottom Ditch.
The advertisement for the annual water rights lease was published in the Greeley Tribune, Fort
Lupton Press, and the Lost Creek. Additionally, the parties that have leased the shares in the
past were also notified of the advertisement. There was one bid received for the lease of our
Fulton Ditch water rights. There was one bid received for the lease of our Lupton Bottom water
rights. There were no bids received for the lease of our Lake Loveland water rights.
The bidder for the Fulton Ditch shares was David Petrocco Farms, Inc and they bid $44/share.
The County owns 28 shares of Fulton Ditch water. The total price that the winning bidder will
pay is $1,232. The Petrocco Farms bid will cover the annual ditch assessment that is paid by
the County. Petrocco Farms has leased the Fulton Ditch shares from the County for the last
several years. In order to show continued use of the water rights, it is recommended that the
County accept the Petrocco Farms bid and move forward with signing the annual lease for the
28 shares of Fulton Ditch water.
The bidder for the Lupton Bottom shares was Miller Farms and they bid $1,200/share. The
County owns 2 shares of Lupton Bottom water. The total price that the winning bidder will pay
is $2,400. The Miller Farms bid will cover the annual ditch assessment that is paid by the
County. Miller Farms has leased the Lupton Bottom shares from the County for the last several
years. In order to show continued use of the water rights, it is recommended that the County
accept the Miller Farms bid and move forward with signing the annual lease for the 2 shares of
Lupton Bottom Ditch water.
I will plan on attending the BOCC hearing to answer any questions that the Board may have
regarding the annual leasing of the above mentioned water rights.
