Division: 4 Respondents: SWINK FAMILY FARMS, LLP; ESTHER SWINK, SYLVIA ROSALEE SAUER AND ALVIN WALTER SWINK, as Trustees of the Swink Family Trust created under the Will of Walter A .Swink dated March 15, 1974; BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF WELD COUNTY; VESSELS OIL & GAS COMPANY and JOHN R. LEFEBVRE, JR. acting in his official capacity as TREASURER OF WELD COUNTY, COLORADO. John R. Sperber, #22073 FAEGRE & BENSON LLP 1700 Lincoln Street, #3200 Denver, Colorado 80203 Telephone No: (303) 607-3500 Facsimile No. (303) 607-3600 Attorneys for Petitioner PETITION IN CONDEMNATION COMES NOW the Petitioner, the Left Hand Water District ("the District"), by and through its attorneys, and alleges as follows: 1. The District is a quasi-municipal corporation of the State of Colorado and is a water district formed and operated pursuant to Title 32 of the Colorado Revised Statutes. 2. The District is vested with the power of eminent domain and dominant eminent domain pursuant to C.R.S. § 32-1-1006 (1)(f) and other relevant law. The District has the legal authority to acquire properties within and without the District's boundaries, including the subject property. 3. This proceeding is brought pursuant to the provisions of C.R.S. § 38-1-101, et seq., as amended. 4. The District has determined pursuant to a resolution of its Board that there is a public need and necessity to acquire a fee simple interest in the property described and depicted in Exhibit 1 for the purpose of constructing a water storage tank site and related facilities. 5. The District has also determined that there is a public need and necessity to acquire the property interests described and depicted in the easement, property description and land plat attached hereto as Exhibit 2 for the purpose of a permanent non-exclusive easement for the installation of treated water lines to feed into and out of the take site. 6. The property interests sought by Petitioner which are described in Exhibits 1 and 2, will collectively be referred to herein as "the Property." The purposes and uses for which the Property is being acquired will collectively be referred to herein as "the Project." 7. Pursuant to C.R.S. § 38-1-102, this Court has jurisdiction over this proceeding. Venue is also proper in this Court because the Property is located in Weld County. 8. Through this action, the District does not seek to obtain any water rights or rights to use water, either decreed or undecreed, permitted or unpermitted, tributary, non- tributary or not non-tributary, designated or undesignated that is owned or claimed by Respondents or in any way associated with the Property. The District disclaims any interest in any water rights or rights to use water owned by the Respondents or in any uses of water associated with the Property. Nonetheless, the District's disclaimer of water rights and right to use water shall not be construed as permission by the Respondents or any others to locate or perpetuate surface facilities incident to water rights or the rights to use water that are not already existing and that would interfere with the District's use of the Property for the Project. 2 9. Through this action, the District does not seek to obtain any right, title or interest to any vein, ledge, lode, deposit, oil, natural gas, or other mineral resource that is owned or claimed by Respondents or in any way associated with the Property. The District disclaims any interest in any such mineral resources. Nonetheless, the District's disclaimer shall not be construed as permission by the Respondents or any others to locate or perpetuate surface facilities or other appurtenances incident to the mineral resources or the rights to develop mineral resources that are not already existing and that would interfere with the District's use of the Property for the Project, nor shall it be construed as permission by the Respondents or any others to exercise any rights associated with such mineral resources that would interfere with subsurface support required for the District's use of the Property for the Project. 10. The Property is purportedly owned of record by Respondents Swink Family Farms LLLP; and by Esther Swink, Sylvia Rosalee Sauer and Alvin Walter Swink, as trustees of the Swink Family Trust created under the will of Walter A. Swink dated March 15, 1974 (the "Respondent-Owners"). 11. The Board of County Commissioner of Weld County, State of Colorado, is named herein as it may claim an interest in the Property pursuant to a right of way for country roads 30 feet wide on either side of section and township lines as established in an instrument recorded October 14, 1889, in Book 86 at Page 273, and an Agreement recorded January 9, 1996 in Book 1526 at Reception No. 2471037 in the Clerk and Recorder's Office of Weld County. The District intends to acquire the Property subject to such interests. 12. Vessels Oil & Gas Company, is named herein as it may claim an interest in the Property pursuant to a Right of Way Agreement recorded December 1, 1986, in Book 1137 at Reception No. 2078820 and a Right of Way Agreement recorded December 1, 1986, in Book 1137 at Reception No. 2078821 in the Clerk and Recorder's Office of Weld County. 13. John R. Lefebvre, Jr., as Treasurer of Weld County, is joined as a Respondent pursuant to C.R.S. § 39-3-134. 14. The District is informed and believes that this action does not affect the property or interests of any person under a guardianship or conservatorship. 15. Insofar as it is known by the District, there are no other persons or entities with an interest of record in the property purportedly owned by the Respondent-Owners which will be affected by the Property to be acquired by the District. 16. The District has negotiated in good faith with the relevant parties for the purchase of the Property, but the compensation to be paid for the Property cannot be agreed upon. Further negotiations would be futile under the circumstances. 3 17. Respondents have a duty to mitigate their damages, if any, arising by reason of this acquisition. Any damages resulting from a failure to take such reasonable steps cannot be recovered. WHEREFORE, the District prays as follows: 1. That Respondents be required to affirmatively state any claim or interest they may assert in the Property, including any claim of ownership, and the names and addresses of any other interested persons or entities and the nature of those interests; 2. That the District have judgment condemning the Property for the public uses set forth herein upon the payment of just compensation to Respondents or other parties in interest as provided by law, and that the Court issue a Rule and Order conveying the Property to the District; 3. For such other and further relief as this Court may deem proper. Respectfully submitted this 17th day of March, 2011.

FOR GOOD AND VALUABLE CONSIDERATION,the receipt and sufficiency whereof are acknowledged, Grantor hereby grants to the District,its successors and assigns,a permanent non-exclusive right("Easement")to occupy and use the property located in the Northeast Quarter of Section 21,Township 1 North, Range 68 West of the 6`s P.M.

IT IS HEREBY MUTUALLY COVENANTED AND AGREED by and between the parties as follows: 1. The District shall have and may exercise the right of ingress and egress in,over, through and across the Property for any purpose needed for the full enjoyment of any other right of occupancy or use provided for herein. 2.

Where paved roadways are installed on all or any part of the surface of the Easement they shall be installed and maintained by Grantor on and over the entire width thereof,with no planters, islands or median structures.Any prohibited use or installation located on the Easement as of or after the date of this Agreement, including installations not conforming to Paragraph 7 hereof,may be removed by the District without liability to it for damages arising therefrom. 3. Fences existing as of the date hereof which are disturbed or destroyed by the District in the exercise of its rights hereunder shall be replaced by the District to their original condition as nearly as may reasonably be done. Grantor shall not,however,construct or install new fencing across or within the Easement without the advance written consent of the District; such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 4. All water pipelines installed within the Easement shall be laid not less than four feet below the surface of the adjacent ground. R a � z 5. The District shall have and may exercise the right of subjacent and lateral support to whatever extent is necessary or desirable for the full,complete and unmolested enjoyment of the rights herein granted.

Additional uses listed above,not related to the Left Hand Water District in providing water service,would be at the sole discretion of the Owner. 8.

If the District, by written instrument,releases its rights herein granted and ceases to use the same,all right,title and interest of the District hereunder shall cease and terminate, and the Grantor or its successors in title shall hold the Property,as the same may then be,free from the rights so released and shall own all material and structures of the District so released,but nothing herein shall be construed as working a forfeiture of abandonment of any interest derived hereunder and not owned by the District at the time of the termination of the District's rights. 10. Granting of this easement is subject to general taxes for the year this instrument is recorded,and subject further to easements, encumbrances,exceptions,limitations,restrictions and reservations contained in instruments of record prior to the date this Agreement is recorded. 11.

FOR GOOD AND VALUABLE CONSIDERATION,the receipt and sufficiency whereof are acknowledged, Grantor hereby grants to the District,its successors and assigns,a permanent non-exclusive right("Easement")to occupy and use the property located in the Northeast Quarter of Section 21, Township I North, Range 68 West of the 6's P.M. County of Weld, State of Colorado,and more fully described as Parcels A and B on Exhibit A attached and incorporated herein by reference(the"Property"),to construct, lay,install,inspect,monitor,maintain,repair,renew, substitute,change the size of, replace, remove,operate and use one or more underground water pipelines,and all underground and surface appurtenances and facilities thereto,of such size and capacity as necessary or required by the District,in,through,over and across the Property. IT IS HEREBY MUTUALLY COVENANTED AND AGREED by and between the parties as follows: 1. The District shall have and may exercise the right of ingress and egress in,over,through and across the Property for any purpose needed for the full enjoyment of any other right of occupancy or use provided for herein. 2. Grantor shall neither cause nor permit the parking or storage of goods or equipment, or the construction or placement of any structure or building, street light,power pole,yard light,or the planting of any tree,woody plant or nursery stock, of any kind,within any part of the Easement. Where paved roadways are installed on all or any part of the surface of the Easement they shall be installed and maintained by Grantor on and over the entire width thereof,with no planters, islands or median structures. Any prohibited use or installation located on the Easement as of or after the date of this Agreement,including installations not conforming to Paragraph 7 hereof,may be removed by the District without liability to it for damages arising therefrom. 3. Fences existing as of the date hereof which are disturbed or destroyed by the District in the exercise of its rights hereunder shall be replaced by the District to their original condition as nearly as may reasonably be done. Grantor shall not,however, construct or install new fencing across or within the Easement without the advance written consent of the District; such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 4. All water pipelines installed within the Easement shall be laid not less than four feet below the surface of the adjacent ground. g "s, tt� , q� K 3�v f'•V•1 11 Ap^ T,.Y[ g ^bf yi G(3i� • • • 5. The District shall have and may exercise the right of subjacent and lateral support to whatever extent is necessary or desirable for the full,complete and unmolested enjoyment of the rights herein granted. Grantor shall neither take nor permit any action which would impair the lateral or subjacent support for any water pipelines or appurtenances. Grantor shall not modify the earth cover over a District pipeline without advance written authorization from the District,which shall provide for full payment or reimbursement to the District of all costs of adjusting District facilities made necessary by such modification. 6. After any construction or other operations by the District which disturb the surface of the Property, the District will restore the general surface of the ground,including paving and authorized appurtenances,as nearly as may reasonably be done to the grade and condition it was in immediately prior to construction,except as necessarily modified to accommodate District facilities. Topsoil shall be replaced in cultivated and agricultural areas,and any excess earth resulting from installations by the District shall be removed from the Property at the sole expense of the District. For a period of one year following disturbance of the surface of the Property by the District,the District will maintain the surface elevation and quality of the soil by correcting any settling or subsiding that may occur as a result of the work done by the District. Seeding or sod replacement will be completed by the District as soon as is practical after completion of the installation and grading. 7. Service lines from adjacent properties receiving service from District facilities in the Easement,and other public water utilities such as water,storm,sewer,gas,electric,telephone, data transmission, communication,and cable television lines may be installed in the Easement,provided that they do not interfere with the District's rights herein granted. Utilities which parallel the District's facilities shall not be located closer than 15 feet thereto. Additional uses listed above,not related to the Left Hand Water District in providing water service,would be at the sole discretion of the Owner. 8. Grantor retains the right to the undisturbed use and occupancy of the Property insofar as such use and occupancy are consistent with and do not impair any grant or covenant herein contained. 9. If the District, by written instrument,releases its rights herein granted and ceases to use the same,all right,title and interest of the District hereunder shall cease and terminate, and the Grantor or its successors in title shall hold the Property,as the same may then be,free from the rights so released and shall own all material and structures of the District so released,but nothing herein shall be construed as working a forfeiture of abandonment of any interest derived hereunder and not owned by the District at the time of the termination of the District's rights. 10. Granting of this easement is subject to general taxes for the year this instrument is recorded, and subject further to easements,encumbrances,exceptions,limitations,restrictions and reservations contained in instruments of record prior to the date this Agreement is recorded. 11.
