Dear Mr. Billings:
I believe my letter of November 10th was
misinterpreted to suggest we were requesting the
Ida Industrial Park development fee come to the
City of Brighton. This was not my intent.
My request was that the fee go to School
District 27-J which of course is a Weld County
district.
Again, we respectfully request the School
District be permitted to receive these monies for
recreation use for the citizens of Weld County.
Yours truly,// (--,
Ronald A. 'Hellbus\ch

Dear Mr. Hellbusch,
In regard to your November 10th letter, Weld County land use policies on
parks and recreation pertain specifically to Weld County and any indication
by the Weld County Planning Department that parks and recreation funds
would be deferred from Weld County's long range parks and recreation program
is inconsistent with the thinking of this Board of County Commissioners.
This Board has at its discretion under regulations two choices: accept
land for parks and recreation, land area based on the per cent of acreage
in the total development; or, in lieu of land, the Board can require that
a dollar amount based on the value of the land considered be deposited with
the Board for the parks and recreation fund.
There are no provisions for the Board of County Commissioners to allocate those
funds to any purpose or project other than Weld County parks and recreation.
We realize your interest in these funds for the City of Brighton, but it
would be inconsistent according to our regulations and long range parks and
recreation plans. This is official notice by this Board of the impossibility
of those funds being diverted.

Gentlemen:
The City of Brighton and School District 27J are
in agreement in requesting the $5,000 being offered to
Weld County for development fees be deposited with
School District 27-J, specifically for "recreation
uses" to serve district residents. As you know, the
City of Brighton will be providing water and sewer
utility services.
We feel by depositing these funds with the School
District, a fair and equitable use of development fees
will be made for the Weld County area served, benefiting
this project.
Yours truly,

Dear Sirs:
I have been informed that there will be capital improvement monies avail-
able as a result of the Ida Industrial Park Development just north of
Brighton in Weld County. I have further been advised that the developers
have indicated an interest in having the monies in lieu of public land
dedication retained in the Brighton community.
On behalf of the Brighton School District, I would like to request these
funds to be used as part of the capital improvement projects in School
District No. 27 J. Specifically, we are in the process of expanding our
recreational facilities , which include softball diamonds and tennis courts ,
and this money would be utilized, along with district funcis , to complete
these projects.
I have spoken with our Board of Education, and they concur with this
position.
If there are additional questions, I would be happy to respond.
Sincerely,
f
Wilber D. Hawkins
