Please don't change the zoning adjacent to this invaluable learning environment. Christine Sallee 4th grade teacher 21st Century After School Program Coordinator bos Rios Elementary School • • -744).";%,E' 1 Kim Ogle Holly Bea-Weaver[hollybea@me.com] t: Tuesday, May 03, 2011 4:00 PM Kim Ogle Subject: petition signed by Mars' Liddell Background: The Weld County Planning Commission will review a proposal on May 3, 2011 for a commercial hunting, water skiing and camping facility on property northwest of Greeley. The proposal then goes before the Weld County Commissioners for approval. The lake property where these activities will take place is located west of and adjacent to the Poudre Learning Center. The Poudre River Trail runs along the southern boundary of the property parallel to County Road 62.25/F Street. A bald eagle nest is located on the northern boundary of the property. Concerns have been voiced by the Colorado Division of Wildlife, U.S. Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service, Central Colorado Water Conservancy District, the City of Greeley and other local agencies and include the following: 1. Bald Eagle and Wildlife Habitat Impact: A pair of Bald Eagles is currently nesting adjacent to the lakes. It is believed two eaglets have recently hatched. The Bald Eagles have been nesting in this area since 1992 and have produced approximately 20 eaglets during this time period. This nest is one of only two known active nests along the Poudre River in the Northern Colorado area. The Bald Eagle is protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918 and the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act. In addition to the Bald Eagles there is •abundance of other wildlife currently inhabiting the area. Sightings include coyotes, deer, turkeys, mink, raccoons, and numerous bird species. Increased human activity and the noise generated by boat motors, loud music and additional hunting activity could adversely affect the eagles and other wildlife in the area. This disturbance clearly has the potential of causing the eagles and other wildlife to leave the area altogether. 2. Poudre River Trail Impact—The Poudre River Trail, south of and contiguous to the property in question, is enjoyed by many as a peaceful place to walk or bike and observe nature and wildlife in a quiet setting. Increased noise from this facility, as well as the danger of stray bullets from hunters, will negatively affect the trail in this area. 3. Poudre Learning Center Impact—The Poudre Learning Center (PLC) was built with funds raised by Greeley and Windsor Rotary Clubs, other local organizations, and many individuals. Since 2005, tens of thousands of students have visited the PLC, giving local children from Greeley-Evans, Windsor-Severance, Johnstown- Milliken, and Eaton school districts the opportunity to experience the outdoors in a natural environment, observe wildlife, and learn about the importance of the Cache la Poudre River in a unique setting with hands-on activities. The PLC also serves as a community meeting place for various groups and is headquarters to the Cache La Poudre National Heritage Area. • r} � t r t The proposed facility will have a significant impact on the PLC. The tranquil, educational setting of the PLC would clearly be negatively affected. Wildlife, once observed by students, could very likely be scared off by this increased activity. Increased wave action caused by motor boats will erode the east shore of Siebring Sservoir and potentially damage the north-south road on the PLC property. Early, late, and weekend users of PLC and the Poudre Trail would be impacted by motor-boat noise and fear of stray shot from hunters' guns. The PLC, the Poudre Trail, the bald eagles and other wildlife in this area must be protected from the negative impacts of this proposal. This proposal is not consistent with surrounding land uses and must not be allowed. Petition: To Weld County Planning Commission, Weld County Commissioners, and representatives and officials of the City of Greeley, Town of Windsor, County of Weld, and State of Colorado: We, the undersigned residents of Northern Colorado, are deeply concerned about the proposal for a commercial hunting, water skiing and camping facility north of County Road 62.25 (F Street) and east of County Road 25 (95th Avenue) in Weld County, referred to as USR-1778. This proposed facility would be contiguous with a NW Greeley boundary, adjacent to and immediately west of the Poudre Learning Center, and adjacent to and north of a% mile section of the Poudre River Trail. We strongly urge our representatives and public officials to deny this proposal as an inappropriate use in this location.. • Please do not destroy this habitat by commercializing it. Thank you for your consideration Dr. Marsi Liddell, President Aims Community College • 2 Case number USR 1778 • Kim Ogle,Weld County Planner The Poudre Learning Center is requesting accelerated Weld County enforcement action on referenced USR 1778. This case will be coming before you on May 16 with a recommendation for denial by the planning commission. We are advised by Kim Ogle that enforcement action to remove illegally parked campers, boats and trailers managed from subject premises is difficult to accomplish other than traditional enforcement processes of citations, responses, hearings, etc. It was cited at the hearing yesterday, May 3rd, that this commercial hunting and water sports concession is operating without permit. Without instructions from the Weld County Commissioners take a higher level action for removal, he can only proceed under existing regulations. • This is a highly visible operation from the Poudre Trail system, the Poudre Learning Center, and Poudre River Ranch subdivision. The Poudre Center Learning Center Board of Directors respectfully requests your attention to this matter. Thank you for taking this advisement.

I had hoped to be at this meeting to testify on behalf of the opposition to this Use by Special Review Permit. Unfortunately, I will be out of state. I did testify at the Weld County Planning Commission meeting on May 3 and was pleased to see all but one member vote for disapproval. All voted with concerns about "owner's rights." I do not disagree with that position. However, when one person consistently tramples everyone else's rights with impunity, I take issue. I have lived in the Poudre River Ranch Subdivision for 11 years. 1 was sold on the • premise that this was and would remain a quiet, pristine, upscale place to retire in Weld County. Hundreds of others thought so too. Unfortunately that did not happen. Shortly after our homes were built cattle were allowed to roam across our newly planted landscapes.Next, the land adjacent to our homes was sold to a gravel mining company running noisy machinery 24/7. In the past two years, oil well drilling began in the neighborhood 24/7. Then the recreational facility in question began operation without the requisite permits and operated 24/7. There is a pattern of disregard. While the focus in the press has been on nesting eagles, I believe the bigger issue is adjacent landowners' rights. I hope you will too. Sincerely, Q W Gary M.

We already have enough traffic on 83rd Ave. with all the cement trucks and commuter traffic. Please keep our area as it was intended...quiet and serene. Thank you for your consideration.

From: verakahKacomcast.net fmailto:verakahl@comcast.netl Sent: Friday, May 13, 2011 5:09 PM To: Barbara Kirkmeyer; Douglas Rademacher; Sean Conway; William Garcia Subject: Public Hearing CR 62.25F Street Commissioners, My husband and I strongly oppose the application for a commercial hunting, water skiing and camping facility on the property northwest of Greeley and adjacent to the Poudre River Learning Center and Trail!!! We are frequent users of the trail and after viewing the small lake and trails nearby, believe that the effects would be deadly to the wildlife and to the current use and activity of the learning center and trail. The trail and learning center facilities have been built by many citizen contributions; it would be a travesty to grant this commercial proposal! The lake is too small for this type of activity and much too close to an established and successful program for hundreds of school students as well as activity groups. I am President of the Greeley Friends and Newcomers Club and we are meeting there in July to enjoy the learning center and the trail at that location. We recently enjoyed the Poudre Trail Athlon event. Please vote "NO" to this proposal on May 18!! Thank you, Vera Kahl and Cliff Kahl 506-0534 • EXHIBIT 1 Esther Gesick atom: naepooh@aol.com nt: Monday, May 16, 2011 9:35 AM To: Esther Gesick Subject: May 18, 2011 Board of County Commissioner Hearing re Ski Lake Attachments: lake[1].doc Please accept this letter for consideration in the upcoming hearing at 10:00 on 5/18. Thank you for your time. • EXHIBIT • 1 May 16,2011 • TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: Re: Ski Lake Near Poudre Learning Center I wanted to voice my concerns regarding the debate on whether the Board of County Commissioners should vote for or against a ski lake near the Poudre Learning Center. I am currently a member on the lake and am appalled at the tactics and disparaging remarks that have been spewed at us from employees/volunteers at the Poudre Learning Center. My family and I moved here from Minnesota over 14 years ago...the land of 10,000 lakes. We grew up boating and to value and respect nature and wanted to instill those values in our kids. We tried to teach our kids how to ski and wakeboard on public lakes such as Boyd,Carter and Horsetooth. Unfortunately, not everyone at these public lakes are considerate when trying to teach youngsters. They are just too crowded and very dangerous. We had an opportunity to sign up for a private lake on private property and we grabbed it. My husband works for the school district and went on a field trip to the Poudre Learning Center with my son two weeks ago. The employee from the Poudre Learning Center made disparaging remarks about the campers and my husband just listened. My son took off his coat because it was getting warm and the employee said "watch out,we have a nudist colony across the river" referring to our campers. This was not only uncalled for but highly unprofessional especially when talking to a 12 year old. We have been nothing but respectful and peaceful to everyone and have not voiced our opinions or concerns to those at the Poudre Learning Center and yet we get these ridiculous comments slapped at us. We are NOT a nudist colony.We are a group of peaceful,family oriented individuals who want to share our love for boating and nature with our kids. • Our friends took their boat out last Saturday and unknown to us,the Poudre Learning Center had a planned event that day. When they put their boat in the water,an older gentlemen started hollering and sharing his views rather abruptly to my friend who was in the boat with her 6 year old daughter and her daughters friend. This was again uncalled for and highly unprofessional. When one of the employees/volunteers explained that they had an event going on our friends respectfully docked their boat until the event was over. They approached our friends in a very hostile and disrespectful manner. We were all out to enjoy the beautiful Mother's Day weekend with our families. We want the same as those at the Poudre Learning Center. To teach kids the value of nature and to respect. However, we teach our kids to not only respect nature but other individuals. It is my understanding that the area where we boat and camp is private property. They should respect our privacy as well. My suggestion is to plant some trees to block the view of the campers. Not only to benefit the PLC but also the lake members privacy as well. This is no difference than the Soaring Eagle subdivision in Windsor and the Windsor Shores Lake. Every spring campers and boats come out to the private lake and every fall they are removed. Multi-million dollar homes are built in that subdivision and it works because those campers are hidden amongst the trees. The only difference I see right now is lack of respect. I vote for the ski lake so we can continue to teach our kids to ski and wakeboard in a safe environment. Sincerely, • Danae Shipman Esther Gesick om: Judy Firestien [Judy.Firestien@BracewellFarm.com] nt: Sunday, May 15, 2011 5:43 PM To: Esther Gesick Subject: USR-1778 Attachments: Petition_USR-1778.pdf; plc petitions.pdf Re: USR-1778 Esther, An online petition was recently started to voice opposition to the Hunting, Camping and Water Skiing Facility being proposed adjacent to the Poudre Learning Center northwest of Greeley, known as USR-1778. I would like to provide a copy of this petition, which also includes many comments, for review by the Weld County Commissioners before the public hearing on Wednesday, May 18 (see attached). Would you be so kind as to include this as an exhibit in the Commissioners' materials regarding this case? Please refer them to page 16 of the petition for review of the many comments included with the signatures. I have also included some additional pages of signatures collected on paper. There currently are nearly 750 signatures on the petition from concerned citizens. Would you please also confirm receipt of this information? Thank you for your assistance with this, Esther. I hope you are well! lest regards, Judy Firestien (970) 686 2338 EXHIBIT • ' Q 1 Stop Commercial Hunting & Boating Facility (USR-1778) Published by Concerned NoCo Citizens on Apr 27, 2011 • Background (Preamble): The Weld Planning Commission will review a proposal on May 3, 2011 for a commercial hunting,water skiing and camping facility on property northwest of Greeley. The proposal then goes before the Weld County Commissioners for approval on May 18, 2011. The lake property where these activities will take place is located west of and adjacent to the Poudre Learning Center. The Poudre River Trail runs along the southern boundary of the property parallel to County Road 62.25/F Street. A bald eagle nest is located on the northern boundary of the property. Concerns have been voiced by the Colorado Division of Wildlife, U.S. Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service, the City of Greeley and other local agencies and include the following: 1. Bald Eagle and Wildlife Habitat Impact-A pair of bald eagles is currently nesting adjacent to the lakes. It is believed two eaglets have recently hatched. The Bald Eagles have been nesting in this area since 1992 and have produced approximately 20 eaglets during this time period. This nest is one of only two known active nests along the Poudre River in the Northern Colorado area. The Bald Eagle is protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918 and the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act. In addition to the Bald Eagles there is an abundance of other wildlife currently inhabiting the area. Sightings include coyotes, deer, turkeys, mink, racoons, and numerous bird species. Increased human activity and the noise generated by boat motors, loud music and additional hunting activity could adversely affect the eagles and other wildlife in the area. This disturbance clearly has the potential of causing the eagles and other wildlife to leave the area altogether. • 2. Poudre River Trail Impact-The Poudre River Trail, south of and contiguous to the property in question, is enjoyed by many as a peaceful place to walk or bike and observe nature and wildlife in a quiet setting. Increased noise from this facility, as well as the danger of stray bullets from hunters,will negatively affect the trail in this area. 3. Poudre Learning Center Impact-The Poudre Learning Center(PLC)was built with funds raised by Greeley and Windsor Rotary Clubs, other local organizations, and many individuals. Since 2005, tens of thousands of students have visited the PLC, -giving local children from Greeley-Evans, Windsor-Severance, Johnstown-Milliken,and Eaton school districts the opportunity to experience the outdoors in a natural environment, observe wildlife,and learn about the importance of the Cache la Poudre River in a unique setting with hands-on activities. The PLC also serves as a community meeting place for various groups and is headquarters to the Cache La Poudre National Heritage Area. The proposed facility will have a significant impact on the PLC. The tranquil, educational setting of the PLC would clearly be negatively affected. Wildlife, once observed by students, could very likely be scared off by this increased activity. Increased wave action caused by motor boats will erode the east shore of Siebring Reservoir and potentially damage the north-south road on the PLC property. Early, late, and weekend users of the PLC and the Poudre Trail would be impacted by motor-boat noise and fear of stray shot from hunters'guns. The PLC,the Poudre Trail, the bald eagles and other wildlife in this area must be protected from the negative impacts of this proposal. This proposal is not consistent with surrounding land uses and must not be allowed. Petition Text: To Weld County Planning Commission, Weld County Commissioners, and representatives and officials of the City of • Greeley, Town of Windsor, County of Weld, and State of Colorado: We, the undersigned residents of Northern Colorado, are deeply concerned about the proposal for a commercial PETITION:Stop Commercial Hunting 8 Boating Facility(USR-1778) Page 1 Pffiveredby fpPntbo, hunting, water skiing and camping facility north of County Road 62.25 (F Street) and east of County Road 25 (95th Avenue)in Weld County, referred to as USR-1778. • This proposed facility would be contiguous with a NW Greeley boundary, adjacent to and immediately west of the Poudre Learning Center, and adjacent to and north of a 3/4 mile section of the Poudre River Trail. We strongly urge our representatives and public officials to deny this proposal as an inappropriate use in this location.

It was a memorable experience for him. I would hate to see the value of the PLC destroyed, but a children's nature walk and a hunting zone are totally incompatible. I would urge you not to approve this development. If you do,the greatest value of the PLC would no longer be the opportunity to study nature, but rather an opportunity to observe how unbridled development can spoil our natural resources. 685 Cindy quick Back to signature list Inappropriate location for hunting and boating due to fragile ecosystem. 679 denise schump Back to signature list THis area is used for educational,out of classroom experiences, in many school districts including Weld, Larimer and Boulder,to help students understand the fragile natural enviornment in Colorado. Please keep this area open to education. There are other places that this area could be placed.With the hard economic times in education, it would seem wasteful to close this economical, educational and enviornmental oasis in our community Thanks, Denise Schump Lucile Erwin Middle Schol 677 Amber Beyer Back to signature list • Protect the Eagle's habitat that the Poudre Learning Center has worked so hard to protect for so many years. 675 Dennis Heyrman Back to signature list VOTE NO ON THE COMMERCIAL PROPOSAL 668 Marcia Bohnenblust Back to signature list The Poudre Trail is too much of a valuable asset to our community to allow it to be compromised by a large, noisy commercial recreational business. 667 Jennifer Hykes Back to signature list I do not believe that this is an appropriate use of this area being this close to the Poudre learning center. 665 Janet Patton Back to signature list My husband and I ride the trail all the time from County rd 3 into Greeley. Please do NOT ALLOW HUNTING AND FISHING I contributed money to have the learning center moved and believe in its misssion. Do not destroy the intent. 656 Deborah Peyton Back to signature list • This would change the whole character of the area.

Further vehicles and fuel-spilling boats as well as noise pollution will adversely affect the wildlife and terrain of the area and of the PLC itself. The PLC is a gem in the crown of Weld County and Greeley and needs its surrounding territory to be cherished • and protected. 648 shelley gotchey Back to signature list Please give thought to the options available for humans and the far fewer options available to our wildlife. We have a responsibility to our planet and ALL its inhabitants. 634 Kristen Denham Back to signature list Do not do this! 628 Jean Bruns Back to signature list Please preserve the peaceful nature of the Poudre Learning Center and Poudre River Trail.

My time at the learning center had a large effect on my understanding and appreciation for the quickly decreasing natural areas we have left. Please don't change anything on or around the center, it is very important to not only local residents but to people from all around the nation who would come to enjoy the learning center. 622 Chris Schmidt Back to signature list This is such a peaceful area. Would like to see it stay that way. 621 Andrew Leonard Back to signature list We don't need this,and its disrupting an important habitat. 619 Kathyg Gremmer Back to signature list This would to dangerous for the children. Kids don't have enough safe places to be involved as it is. It is more important to give kids a safe place to learn new things. 610 Danielle Long Back to signature list Every year our school goes on a feild study in that area. I don't think we would be able to do that if there was hunting • allowed.Also,there is already enough pollution in the lakes and rivers as which some high school students have tried to come up with sollutions for.The water sources are already polluted enough and allowing these things would only create more potential pollution.

The Learning Center is more important than hunting or boating. 602 Mariana Vega Back to signature list Remeber that this trail is used for many educatinol and family purposes!Why would you want to break such beutifull traditions? 600 John Gamble Back to signature list Placing this type of activity next to an area known for it's educational and tranquil setting would be a MAJOR mistake. My wife and I have watched the nesting bald eagles for years at this location. Hunting activity does not mix well with Bald Eagle nesting which starts in January at a time when waterfowl hunting is still in progress. Think of the students when making this decision. Educating our youth about nature should be a priority,continued, and NOT jeopardized. 599 Nelda Gamble Back to signature list I have watched the Bald Eagles Nest for a number of years and have shared the wonders of these birds with 100s of children from the Greeley schools. I believe the quality of the area would be greatly diminished as the eagle's nest would likely move from this location. • 598 William and Claudia Vetesy Back to signature list With Greeley growing as quickly as it is, we absolutely need some places where there is still peace and quiet. Many of us consider this solitude with nature to be recreation. 594 Jeanette Pryor Back to signature list There is hardly any wilderness left to protect. This is one of the only treasures that Greeley has. You have an obligation to future generations to protect the Poudre. 592 Douglas Rich Back to signature list Given the historically validated purposes of the Poudre Learning Center and the Poudre River Trail, approval of this type of recreation facility flies in the face of all logic and would mark a severe intrusion on long-term efforts to preserve natural habitat in the heart of Weld County. Why change course now? 587 Joan Reed Back to signature list I can't believe the Poudre could be considered as a viable area for such a project. Of course we need to protect the Bald Eagles and other wildlife! 585 Tara Lafferty Back to signature list The PLC offers many individuals such as myself to experience a place away from the city where many students can • discover the joys and peace nature can provide.

We need to protect this for future generations. 567 Brenda Otteman Back to signature list Have have taken my science students to visit the Poudre Learning Center every years since it opened. The PLC allows students a place to actually observe what is happening in nature. No in class lab or activity can replace the real applications seen at the PLC. Destroying this type of learning environment would be nothing short of ridiculous. Please deny the use of the proposed property in this way and encourage them to find a new area to use. 565 Lee Johnson Back to signature list Please vote no to allow water skiing, hunting or camping at north of County Road 62.25(F Street)and east of County Road 25(95th Avenue)in Weld County, referred to as USR-1778.

Polluting it with • campers and hunting will destroy a pristine area that many enjoy for its natural beauty. 535 Lynn Stugart Back to signature list I oppose the building of an RV park adjacent to the Poudre Learning Center. 530 Michael Tincher Back to signature list I believe that it is of the utmost importance to preserve the nest site.Development along the Front Range continues to have a negative impact on many historical nest sites and this nest is one of the few that is consistently viewable by the general public from a respectful distance. 528 Sylvia Bedingfield Back to signature list The adjacent property increases the danger to the thousands of people using the Educational Learning center, especially the use of guns. The noise from boats and so many people will destroy the unique natural environment, of which there are so few of that school children can walk to and learn from and left to be enjoyed in the future. 519 koral crespo Back to signature list stop hunting birds that are gooing exstinct 512 Terry Scott Back to signature list • This is a bad idea to have a commercial hunting boating located at this spot. The eagle nest is one reason to not have it here and just the noise and disruption of the Poudre Learning Center and the Poudre Trail is another. Terry Scott 510 Herrick Garnsey Back to signature list The resources for learning about wildlife and natural habitat at the PLC should be preserved. I believe there are better locations for the recreational facilities that are being proposed which will not damage the developed learning opportunity our community has at PLC. 507 Mary Jansen_Hedrick Back to signature list This is an area used for a variety of educational purposes to disturb this area with motor boats and other unnecessary human use when there are plenty of other recreational areas close by would be a waste of time and efforts.NW5T 506 Haylie Koch Back to signature list WE HATE PEOPLE WHO EAT EAGLE MEAT! 505 Andrew Spencer Back to signature list Personally, I see no reason to destroy the habitats of animals that are native to this region. I believe that commercial • hunting and boating should be restricted to mountain ranges or places where the native animals aren't trying to repopulate their species. I find that being able to save the eagle population or any other would be able to incite further places to do the same actions. If the native animals can find this area as a new home,who are we as humans to PETITION:Stop Commercial Hunting&Boating Facility(USR-1778) Page 20 Powered by aovemlon encroach upon their land. 503 Matthew Howard Back to signature list • What they are doing is horribly wrong.they need to be stopped before all the natural wildlife gets drestroyed.

Eagles only recently came off of the endangered species list, but are still very threatened. This is a chance to help the eagle population by saving their home.

At least 13 large RV's were recently parked around the lakes. I hope this current level of activity hasn't already scared the eagles away. Remember the Blue Herons? The Poudre Learning Center is a treasure to the community! Tens of thousands of school children learn about nature here each year. Approval would ruin what so many have worked so hard to create! Protect the Poudre Learning Center! DENY this proposal. 443 Jeanette Meis Back to signature list We take our students out to the Poudre Learning center yearly and do want to have worry about their safety because hunting is occuring on the adjacent land. The students really enjoy the eagles and we don't want to see their habitat destroyed because of hunting. 441 Christina Statley Back to signature list The Poudre River is a place for friends and family to have a good time. Not for commercial hunting and boating. 440 Sharon Post Back to signature list Please do not allow this to pass. I am a regular visitor and volunteer at the PLC. I would hate to see the effects of this proposed change on the wonderful programs/environment there. Also, my father was shot by a stranger and seriously injured in a hunting accident when I was young, so I know firsthand how even careful hunters can hurt or be hurt. • Please do not allow this to go through. Thank you. 435 William Fisher Back to signature list I am apposed to the request. 433 Ivonne Morales Back to signature list We can't allow things such as these to occur. There are defenseless animals who cannot fight for themselves. We already have other areas where they are already being occupied by humans.Why should we use more? If we were in the animal's position,we would be claimming war to claim what's rightly ours. Greeley has plenty of camp/boating/fishing sites. We aren't far from other cities camps either. 430 Janet Butler Back to signature list Only recently great blue herons were drived off their nests in Greeley because of human activity and vehicles. Don't do the same to our bald eagle nest on the Poudrte. We have little access to naature as it is in Greeley. Let's not ruin the beautiful Poudre Trail access by making a campground area that would drive off the remaining wonderful wildlife. 429 Leo Butler Back to signature list Protect Greeley's limited access to natural settings without putting people and vehicles in the way. • 425 Karen Gullickson Back to signature list PETITION:Stop Commercial Hunting&Boating Facility(USR-1778) Page 22 Powered by foPnnoo It is so important to keep this area in its natural habitat because of the wildlife.

Riparian habitats are especially imperiled in this region. Human incursions into sensitive riparian habitats diminish the value of the latter. In this case,the nesting area for the bald eagle is particularly important.

A study commissioned by the Colorado Div of Wildlife found the following economic impact numbers for wildlife watching in 2006: Direct expenditures$703,200,000;Total impact$1,218,200,000 and that this supported 12,780.

Rezoning USR-1778 or permitting camping, speed boating,and hunting there would decrease the attraction greatly. Gone would be the waterfowl. Bald Eagles would no longer nest there. Hunting there would perhaps cause a safety hazard to people on the trail.Would it • be an eye sore? Please register my strong disagreement regarding the proposed change. 366 Roslyn Wikoff Back to signature list Please protect this land. Many school children spend time here learning about the outdoors. This would be tainted with the planned development. Bald Eagles nest here as well. Please protect their habitat. 362 Jane Adams Back to signature list Destroying the tranquility and educational values of the Poudre Learning Center would add one more negative mark to the community, on top of scaring off the herons. 347 GARY FENTIMAN Back to signature list Please deny. 343 Josette Schaffer Back to signature list I have taken my first grade students out to the PLC and the trail for field trips.

This commercial water skiing and hunting enterprise is probably one of the most destructive things that could be done to this area. Please don't destroy one of the few remaining treasures of Northern Colorado. 335 LaRue W. Johnson Back to signature list Folks, this should be a"no brainer". It is totally inconsistent with the establishment of the Learning Center which is progressively becoming more utilized and more surrounded by nature. 331 Barbara G. Murphy Back to signature list Please consider the future of our land and work with us to promote healthy land use. 329 Sally Harms Back to signature list We use the Poudre River trail and visit the Poudre Learning Center for informative sessions on birding and wildlife viewing. Changing the use of the Sebring Reservoir area would negatively impact the environment of the area. Please don't change the zoning to commercial recreation. 328 Mark Bruder Back to signature list • Allowing this proposed hunting, camping and water sport facility would, in my opinion,go against the whole idea of the Poudre Trail and the PLC. Please deny their request. 327 R.John Freese Back to signature list Help protect our natural habitats. Once gone, they can never be recovered... The Poudre River Trail area is a significant natural asset of Greeley and Northern Colorado.

Such uses are noisy, polluting, and potentially dangerous to neighboring land users. As a result, national, state, and city agencies have all raised concerns about the risks to, or loss of, wildlife at the Poudre Learning Center and Poudre River Trail. For these reasons,we must urge a denial of this proposal. 312 Quinn Mock-murphy Back to signature list Please save the Eagles! 302 Robyn Hess Back to signature list The Poudre Trail and the Poudre Learning Center are invaluable resources for Greeley and Weld County. The wildlife corridor is home to many species and the trail provides recreational opportunities for all of the citizens of Weld.The PLC is an exceptional facility that helps students to learn about and appreciate the environment. The sound of motorized vehicles and hunting would likely drive all wildlife out of this zone. Further, it would reduce property prices in surrounding areas. 301 Robert King Back to signature list • It's important to consider not only the legal issues of such development near community-based nature areas, but the land-development and ecological issues as well. Sometimes you can't do whatever you want on private land. 300 MaryAnn Murphy Back to signature list Putting an RV park next to PLC will destroy riparian habitat that is necessary for sustainability. My students study the riparian area at PLC and this RV park will be devastating to our research. 299 Allen Shaw Back to signature list Another foolish move by the commissioners and the county. there seems to be way too much of a'relationship'between the new owner and the commission 298 Lori Reinsvold Back to signature list Greeley and Weld do not need these luxuries.

Please leave Siebring Reservoir to nature. 285 Rick Reeser Back to signature list Other lakes in the same area can be used for recreational pursuits that involve hunting and fishing. Please allow this area to remain natural due to the Eagle nests in the area. 283 Ruth Dick Back to signature list This is too small of an area to allow commercial hunting and water skiing!! Many people come here to view the wildlife and nesting eagles. Hunting and boating would disrupt the peaceful setting and cause all wildlife to flee. 282 Nancy Schutt Back to signature list There are not enough areas left open where there are housing developments. Riding the Poudre Trail and worring about hunters is discontenting. Save the open areas so we can enjoy the eagles and let us continue to feel the enjoyment of quiet natural areas. 279 Judith Shainholtz Back to signature list As a substitute teacher, my students and I enjoyed the knowledge that we received at the PLC • 275 Nancy L.

What concerns me most is how this would limit the use of the Poudre Learning Center to our students. 255 Mary Driscoll Back to signature list The wildlife in this area need to be protected by not agreeing to the re-zoning change. This area serves as an important resource for educating the public, and furthering the population of Bald Eagles. I don't think this plan is a good option. 249 Elaine Hoff Back to signature list • Please DENY this proposal. The"good"that it would provide for a few would be extremely detrimental for many! PETITION:Stop Commercial Hunting 8 Boating Facility(USR-1778) Page 27 Powered by GJPenWn 248 Joan Titre Back to signature list This area should not be zoned for hunting or recreation but kept as an educational/refuge area. School children will be endangered by hunting and wildlife will be negatively impacted by noise and people. 247 E Bradley Back to signature list It is always a good thing to bring new business to the area, however, this location is in my opinion too close to the Bald Eagle pair. I personally find this area a great place to relax and enjoy nature. I also am concerned for the children who visit the area if hunting is allowed. 242 Daniel Baldwin Back to signature list Please do not allow this commercial operation to endanger this natural environment, especially the nesting Bald Eagles 240 Maureen Blackford Back to signature list We need to save the habitat for the eagles and other wildlife 238 Georgia Evans Back to signature list Please keep the motorboats, camping and hunting off that lake. There are plenty of places for us to go recreate that way. let's keep the eagles and give wildlife a place to live too! 237 Rudolph Nuissl Back to signature list While I respect the land owner's right to sell the property for the best available price, I would very much like to see the area adjacent to the Poudre Learning Center and the Poudre River Trail preserved for future generations. Such riparian landscape in this increasingly populated area is rapidly disappearing. In addition, while the right to hunt is protected, hunting along a public trail in a populated area is potentially dangerous. 236 Catherine Hoyt Back to signature list I take several classes a year to the Poudre Learning Center. The PLC is the only outdoor facility I have access to for my field trips. Please do not allow the proposal for boating and water skiing on the adjacent lake. The bald eagles nesting on this property are very valuable to the area as well as for the learning experience for the many students visiting the PLC. 235 april camenisch Back to signature list Some things just need to be left alone. 234 Robert Post Back to signature list Many people worked very hard to make the Poudre Learning Center a reality. I believe the proposed land use change would negatively impact it in a lasting way. 226 William H. Miller Back to signature list I often see the Bald Eagles from the PLC during monthly meetings of the Poudre Heritage Alliance. I am also the president of the Fort Collins Audubon Society, and think that this proposed facility is incompatible with not only the PLC but also with the Bald Eagles. The eagles require long stretches of the river to ensure an adequate food supply(fish)for their young. Also, a hunting and boating facility immediately west of an outdoor classroom is an incompatible use. PETITION:Stop Commercial Hunting 8 Boating Facility(USR.1778) Page 28 Powered by nope4Wu 224 Jeff Stark Back to signature list There aren't very many bald eagles nesting in Colorado,and they all deserve our protection. There are plenty of other • places to hunt,camp, and water ski. 222 Jeanne Lipman Back to signature list The creatures we value so much need a voice to protect their habitat. This is for them. 219 Darlene roberts Back to signature list To propose a project that will severely impact wildlife, is unconsciousable. We need a recreational area full of pollution (noise, odors,trash) like we need someone being shot by a stray bullet. It is crucial that at some point we think about other things besides our own misogony and think about the eagles and other wildlife that we may lose forever. Look at the criticism over the irrigation channel. Give us a green zone for everyone to enjoy, not just a few more well-off than most of us. 218 Deborah Dalton Back to signature list There are areas that already exist in our area for hunting boating and camping-to commercially develope property that will intrude and interrupt one of our unique community experiences is uneccesary and should be stopped. 215 Jacque White Back to signature list I do not want to see a camping and skiing area go up near the PLC it would take away from the natural surroundings out there and take away from the Childern who go out to learn about nature because it will run the wildlife out of that area. • 213 Sarah French-Hahn Back to signature list This will disrupt the Bald Eagles, as well as the Golden Eagles out there, coyotes, hawks, etc.There is not need to disrupt this delicate ecosystem for a bunch of boaters and hunters who have a plethora of other options! 212 Tami Stoudt Back to signature list Please retain the peaceful integrity of the PLC. This area is so important to preserve, and a commercial venture is not appropriate in this location. I chaperoned a group of students last year and the impressions and discoveries from that experience were invaluable! They were SO excited to view the eagles in the nest, don't endanger that nest. I would not like hunters so near a place where large groups of students and community members are present. Please vote NO! 210 Nicole Bishop Back to signature list We need natural areas for educational purposes so that future generations will see the importance and necessity of preserving wildlife of all types! 207 Richard Bond Back to signature list Too many people, kids, and organizations are invested in the Poudre Learning Center to lesson its value to the community by catering to only a few. 204 J.D.

Our ability to experience learning outside the classroom would be greatly impacted by this legislation. In a time where money and options are tight for schools, I encourage you to not consider opening this land to hunters, boaters, and campers as it should continue to be an open space for learning and enjoying. 119 Dave Swartz Back to signature list As a user of the Poudre Learning Center(PLC)and as an advocate for the environment, I strongly urge you to NOT approve the commercial hunting,water skiing, and camping facility, refered to as USR-1778. These proposed activities are in direct contrast to the continued work of the PLC, and I believe present a danger to visitors to the PLC and also a danger to the environment.

I understand there are concerns on the part of others in regards to the recreational use of this private property. Some of the issues have been the number of camp spots proposed, the bald eagles nesting on the property, the gravel pit shore erosion and, as an employee of the Poudre Learning Center referred to us as, a "nudist colony". 1. Proposed Camping Spots—yes, 50 is too many. Believe me, the last thing I want to do is come out of my camper and see 49 other campers. Only one boat is allowed to run at a time,thus making it impossible for everyone to be on the water on any given day. 2. Bald Eagle Nests—from the location of the nests, I can see no reason why the eagles and humans cannot coexist. I just read an article out of Minneapolis that one of the best known eagle's nests is along highway 36 in Maplewood.To quote: "Thousands of cars whiz by it every day. The eagles nesting there seem inured to the hustle and bustle of human activity". While I know, bald eagles are a national treasure...I also know they are not on any endangered species list anymore. They are beautiful and majestic and I can guarantee you none of the members have any intention of harming or interfering with their lives. We teach our daughter to embrace and protect nature...not destroy it. 3. Gravel Pit Shoreline Erosion—last time I checked, most of Colorado's weather comes from the west and north, thus creating waves from the weather which looks like have eroded the east and southern ends of the lake. If the wakes from boats were responsible for this erosion, it would be uniform around the lake, not quarantined to a specific area which, of course runs parallel to the Poudre Learning Center. This is a convenient argument for the Poudre Learning Center. It's nature not man causing this erosion and correct me if I am wrong but didn't man make these gravel pits in the first place? 4. Just Plain Poor Behavior by the Poudre Learning Center employees and visitors—I mentioned earlier that we have been referred to as a "nudist colony".This is a direct quote from an employee of the Poudre Learning Center heard on a school field trip by my neighbor who also works for the school district who is also a member of the lake. If this person is in charge of influencing young, impressionable children, is he the right person for the job? My daughter attends school in the Weld School District. As a parent, should I be worried about inappropriate comments and possible inappropriate behavior of a person in power?Should I plan on keeping my child at home when a field trip is planned to the center? We teach our daughter to respect people, especially elders, and what they say is golden...this type of comment is obviously very inappropriate. On Saturday, May 7th, we put our boat in the water for the first time. We were so excited. My daughter had her little friend sleep over the night before so we could all enjoy the day. My husband backed us into the water. I was driving and had my two co-pilots with me...again a six and seven year old. We noticed that there were some bird watchers at the edge of the private property and we politely started to taxi to our dock, as not to disturb their day. All of a sudden, an older person (I am not going to refer to him as a gentlemen), started waving his t arms and jumping up and down,yelling nasty words and comments at the girls and I on the boat. I did what I teach my daughter to do when confronted by a bully and ignored him.This seemed to make him really upset. My husband got out of his truck and walked over to inform this person that we were on private property.That did not seem to matter. He kept ranting and raving. Later in the day, we were trying to get our day started and another person,this time a woman, started yelling at us (all the time a young boy was throwing rocks in the water in our direction). Not one of those adults on land had enough sense to stop him and tell him that was not right. Ultimately, we decided to dock the boat until the event was over so they could enjoy their time. It was simply the right thing to do. While I know we only have control over ourselves and it's not your job to monitor the disturbing behavior of adults, I thought it was important to share these stories with you. I see absolutely no reason why neighbors cannot get along and enjoy all aspects of our surroundings. If there is an event planned at the Poudre Learning Center,we could be informed of it and stay off the lake till it's over. Simple solution and everybody wins! My main issue for writing this letter is the small interest group waging war on a private property owner and the possibility that he will not be able to use his property as he wants. Last time I checked,we were in America. There's an old saying that the "squeaky wheel gets the oil" and that's exactly what I think this small interest group intended to do.They think by trying to bully,tell lies and getting press is the tactic to get their way.So far it has been working. But let's take a peep at what real public opinion looks like. The following is a poll on the Greeley Tribune's website in regards to this issue that I pulled this morning.As you can see, an overwhelming number of people in the community have absolutely no problem with us being out at the lake. In fact, if you add the"Yes, it's a great idea" (67.77%or 2,050 votes)and "Yes, but only if it's much smaller than it's proposed" (2.12%or 64 votes) together,you get an landslide of almost 70%or 2,114 votes for us being out there as opposed to just 30.12%or 911 against us being out there. 2 Greeley Colorado I GreeleyTribune .com News - Windows Internet Explorer + - traps//apps.c eeleyb•b .rte.com/utlls/poiiirgipoil results.prp?pol!_dent=2615 Fib Edit View Favorites Tools He, `+ * ' 0 .

As a friend of several of the current members of the lake I have been out there and can say without a doubt that the members have nothing but respect for the land and the lake. These campers have invested in a piece of private property and should not be harassed. I am concerned that if the people in support of the Poudre Learning Center win this debate, where will it end? When is private property just that...private?These campers have families and are simply looking for a safe place to enjoy family time together.

The proposal then goes before the Weld County Commissioners for approval on May 18, 2011. The lake property where these activities will take place is located west of and adjacent to the Poudre Learning Center. The Poudre River Trail runs along the southern boundary of the property parallel to County Road 62.25/F Street. A bald eagle nest is located on the northern boundary of the property. Concerns have been voiced by the Colorado Division of Wildlife, U.S. Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service, the City of Greeley and other local agencies and include the following: 1. Bald Eagle and Wildlife Habitat Impact-A pair of bald eagles is currently nesting adjacent to the lakes. It is believed two eaglets have recently hatched. The Bald Eagles have been nesting in this area since 1992 and have produced approximately 20 eaglets during this time period. This nest is one of only two known active nests along the Poudre River in the Northern Colorado area. The Bald Eagle is protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918 and the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act. In addition to the Bald Eagles there is an abundance of other wildlife currently inhabiting the area. Sightings include coyotes, deer, turkeys, mink, racoons, and numerous bird species. Increased human activity and the noise generated by boat motors, loud music and additional hunting activity could adversely affect the eagles and other wildlife in the area. This disturbance clearly has the potential of causing the eagles and other wildlife to leave the area altogether. 2. Poudre River Trail Impact-The Poudre River Trail, south of and contiguous to the property in question, is enjoyed by many as a peaceful place to walk or bike and observe nature and wildlife in a quiet setting. Increased noise from this facility, as well as the danger of stray bullets from hunters,will negatively affect the trail in this area. 3. Poudre Learning Center Impact-The Poudre Learning Center(PLC)was built with funds raised by Greeley and Windsor Rotary Clubs, other local organizations, and many individuals. Since 2005, tens of thousands of students have visited the PLC, -giving local children from Greeley-Evans, Windsor-Severance, Johnstown-Milliken, and Eaton school districts the opportunity to experience the outdoors in a natural environment, observe wildlife, and learn about the importance of the Cache la Poudre River in a unique setting with hands-on activities. The PLC also serves as a community meeting place for various groups and is headquarters to the Cache La Poudre National Heritage Area. The proposed facility will have a significant impact on the PLC. The tranquil, educational setting of the PLC would clearly be negatively affected. Wildlife, once observed by students, could very likely be scared off by this increased activity. Increased wave action caused by motor boats will erode the east shore of Siebring Reservoir and potentially damage the north-south road on the PLC property. Early, late, and weekend users of the PLC and the Poudre Trail would be impacted by motor-boat noise and fear of stray shot from hunters' guns. The PLC,the Poudre Trail, the bald eagles and other wildlife in this area must be protected from the negative impacts of this proposal. This proposal is not consistent with surrounding land uses and must not be allowed. Petition Text: To Weld County Planning Commission, Weld County Commissioners, and representatives and officials of the City of Greeley, Town of Windsor, County of Weld, and State of Colorado: We, the undersigned residents of Northern Colorado, are deeply concerned about the proposal for a commercial PETITION:Stop Commercial Hunting&Boating Facility(USR-1778) Page 1 Powe,ad by GaPet(ME hunting, water skiing and camping facility north of County Road 62.25 (F Street) and east of County Road 25 (95th Avenue)in Weld County, referred to as USR-1778.

It was a memorable experience for him. I would hate to see the value of the PLC destroyed, but a children's nature walk and a hunting zone are totally incompatible. I would urge you not to approve this development. If you do,the greatest value of the PLC would no longer be the opportunity to study nature, but rather an opportunity to observe how unbridled development can spoil our natural resources. 685 Cindy quick Back to signature list Inappropriate location for hunting and boating due to fragile ecosystem. 679 denise schump Back to signature list THis area is used for educational, out of classroom experiences, in many school districts including Weld, Larimer and Boulder,to help students understand the fragile natural enviornment in Colorado. Please keep this area open to education. There are other places that this area could be placed. With the hard economic times in education, it would seem wasteful to close this economical, educational and enviornmental oasis in our community Thanks, Denise Schump Lucile Erwin Middle Schol 677 Amber Beyer Back to signature list Protect the Eagle's habitat that the Poudre Learning Center has worked so hard to protect for so many years. 675 Dennis Heyrman Back to signature list VOTE NO ON THE COMMERCIAL PROPOSAL 668 Marcia Bohnenblust Back to signature list The Poudre Trail is too much of a valuable asset to our community to allow it to be compromised by a large, noisy commercial recreational business. 667 Jennifer Hykes Back to signature list I do not believe that this is an appropriate use of this area being this close to the Poudre learning center. 665 Janet Patton Back to signature list My husband and I ride the trail all the time from County rd 3 into Greeley. Please do NOT ALLOW HUNTING AND FISHING I contributed money to have the learning center moved and believe in its misssion. Do not destroy the intent. 656 Deborah Peyton Back to signature list This would change the whole character of the area. It's a bad idea. 654 Kathleen Ensz Back to signature list PETITION:Stop Commercial Hunting&Boating Facility(USR-1778) Page 16 Fowerea by ooPeRmn Please reject the proposal to expand the waterski RV park juxtaposed to the Poudre Learning Center. Further vehicles and fuel-spilling boats as well as noise pollution will adversely affect the wildlife and terrain of the area and of the PLC itself. The PLC is a gem in the crown of Weld County and Greeley and needs its surrounding territory to be cherished and protected. 648 shelley gotchey Back to signature list Please give thought to the options available for humans and the far fewer options available to our wildlife. We have a responsibility to our planet and ALL its inhabitants. 634 Kristen Denham Back to signature list Do not do this! 628 Jean Bruns Back to signature list Please preserve the peaceful nature of the Poudre Learning Center and Poudre River Trail. Find other more appropriate locations for hunting and waterskiing, please. 627 Pete Hanson Back to signature list It would be devastating for the wildlife in the area as well as for the"nature trail" users. 626 Colette Hanson Back to signature list It would be devastating for the wildlife in the area as well as for the"nature trail" users. 624 Adam Feltes Back to signature list I had my internship at this learning center and now I work for a wastewater facility back home. My time at the learning center had a large effect on my understanding and appreciation for the quickly decreasing natural areas we have left. Please don't change anything on or around the center, it is very important to not only local residents but to people from all around the nation who would come to enjoy the learning center. 622 Chris Schmidt Back to signature list This is such a peaceful area. Would like to see it stay that way. 621 Andrew Leonard Back to signature list We don't need this, and its disrupting an important habitat. 619 Kathyg Gremmer Back to signature list This would to dangerous for the children. Kids don't have enough safe places to be involved as it is. It is more important to give kids a safe place to learn new things. 610 Danielle Long Back to signature list Every year our school goes on a feild study in that area. I don't think we would be able to do that if there was hunting allowed.Also,there is already enough pollution in the lakes and rivers as which some high school students have tried to come up with sollutions for.The water sources are already polluted enough and allowing these things would only create more potential pollution. PETITION'.Stop Commercial Hunting&Boating Facility(USR-1778) Page 17 Powered by GOPeUUPa 608 Herschel Phelps Back to signature list The time is NOW to keep our open spaces open and free of un sightly, noisy evidence of human intrusion. 606 Karen Trainor Back to signature list Please stop this development!! The Learning Center is more important than hunting or boating. 602 Mariana Vega Back to signature list Remeber that this trail is used for many educatinol and family purposes!Why would you want to break such beutifull traditions? 600 John Gamble Back to signature list Placing this type of activity next to an area known for it's educational and tranquil setting would be a MAJOR mistake. My wife and I have watched the nesting bald eagles for years at this location. Hunting activity does not mix well with Bald Eagle nesting which starts in January at a time when waterfowl hunting is still in progress. Think of the students when making this decision. Educating our youth about nature should be a priority, continued, and NOT jeopardized. 599 Nelda Gamble Back to signature list I have watched the Bald Eagles Nest for a number of years and have shared the wonders of these birds with 100s of children from the Greeley schools. I believe the quality of the area would be greatly diminished as the eagle's nest would likely move from this location. 598 William and Claudia Vetesy Back to signature list With Greeley growing as quickly as it is,we absolutely need some places where there is still peace and quiet. Many of us consider this solitude with nature to be recreation. 594 Jeanette Pryor Back to signature list There is hardly any wilderness left to protect. This is one of the only treasures that Greeley has. You have an obligation to future generations to protect the Poudre. 592 Douglas Rich Back to signature list Given the historically validated purposes of the Poudre Learning Center and the Poudre River Trail, approval of this type of recreation facility flies in the face of all logic and would mark a severe intrusion on long-term efforts to preserve natural habitat in the heart of Weld County. Why change course now? 587 Joan Reed Back to signature list I can't believe the Poudre could be considered as a viable area for such a project. Of course we need to protect the Bald Eagles and other wildlife! 585 Tara Lafferty Back to signature list The PLC offers many individuals such as myself to experience a place away from the city where many students can discover the joys and peace nature can provide. By adding another area for people to go have fun with their toy; it creates the same place we the students and environmentalist want to excape.

The PLC allows students a place to actually observe what is happening in nature. No in class lab or activity can replace the real applications seen at the PLC. Destroying this type of learning environment would be nothing short of ridiculous. Please deny the use of the proposed property in this way and encourage them to find a new area to use. 565 Lee Johnson Back to signature list Please vote no to allow water skiing, hunting or camping at north of County Road 62.25(F Street)and east of County Road 25(95th Avenue)in Weld County, referred to as USR-1778. This is a pure wildlife area and should be treated as such. 564 Nancy Wilson Back to signature list Please do not allow this to happen. 554 Tim Tideman Back to signature list We need to protect what little wild life space we have left 553 Bay Roberts Back to signature list Please do not allow commercial hunting, water skiing and camping at USR-17781 552 Jeanne Harsin Back to signature list This project would interfere with the wildlife and impact the environment. It is certainly not appropriate for this area due to the activities that have already been put in place there by planning efforts of the community. 550 Mary Endres Back to signature list Poudre Trail/Learning Center is a jewel that ALL can enjoy. Keep the natural beauty available for everyone, human and wildlife alike, to enjoy, protect, and watch grow. 543 Sandy Magnuson Back to signature list There are many wonderful plces to camp.

PETITION:Stop Commercial Hunting&Boating Facility(USR-1778) Page 19 Powered by GOPPmleu 536 Orest Dubynsky Back to signature list This plan is in direct contradiction to the intent of having open space preserved for outdoor enjoyment. Polluting it with campers and hunting will destroy a pristine area that many enjoy for its natural beauty. 535 Lynn Stugart Back to signature list I oppose the building of an RV park adjacent to the Poudre Learning Center. 530 Michael Tincher Back to signature list I believe that it is of the utmost importance to preserve the nest site.Development along the Front Range continues to have a negative impact on many historical nest sites and this nest is one of the few that is consistently viewable by the general public from a respectful distance. 528 Sylvia Bedingfield Back to signature list The adjacent property increases the danger to the thousands of people using the Educational Learning center, especially the use of guns. The noise from boats and so many people will destroy the unique natural environment, of which there are so few of that school children can walk to and learn from and left to be enjoyed in the future. 519 koral crespo Back to signature list stop hunting birds that are gooing exstinct 512 Terry Scott Back to signature list This is a bad idea to have a commercial hunting boating located at this spot. The eagle nest is one reason to not have it here and just the noise and disruption of the Poudre Learning Center and the Poudre Trail is another. Terry Scott 510 Herrick Garnsey Back to signature list The resources for learning about wildlife and natural habitat at the PLC should be preserved. I believe there are better locations for the recreational facilities that are being proposed which will not damage the developed learning opportunity our community has at PLC. 507 Mary Jansen_Hedrick Back to signature list This is an area used for a variety of educational purposes to disturb this area with motor boats and other unnecessary human use when there are plenty of other recreational areas close by would be a waste of time and efforts.NW5T 506 Haylie Koch Back to signature list WE HATE PEOPLE WHO EAT EAGLE MEAT! 505 Andrew Spencer Back to signature list Personally, I see no reason to destroy the habitats of animals that are native to this region. I believe that commercial hunting and boating should be restricted to mountain ranges or places where the native animals aren't trying to repopulate their species. I find that being able to save the eagle population or any other would be able to incite further places to do the same actions. If the native animals can find this area as a new home,who are we as humans to PETITION:Stop Commercial Hunting 8 Boating Facility(USR-1778) Page 20 Powered by COPoe,lon encroach upon their land. 503 Matthew Howard Back to signature list What they are doing is horribly wrong.they need to be stopped before all the natural wildlife gets drestroyed.

Don't be an idiot. 501 bryson steinbrecher Back to signature list You need to save the eagles.This is so not a good thing.

Eagles only recently came off of the endangered species list, but are still very threatened.This is a chance to help the eagle population by saving their home.

At least 13 large RV's were recently parked around the lakes. I hope this current level of activity hasn't already scared the eagles away. Remember the Blue Herons? The Poudre Learning Center is a treasure to the community! Tens of thousands of school children learn about nature here each year. Approval would ruin what so many have worked so hard to create! Protect the Poudre Learning Center! DENY this proposal. 443 Jeanette Meis Back to signature list We take our students out to the Poudre Learning center yearly and do want to have worry about their safety because hunting is occuring on the adjacent land. The students really enjoy the eagles and we don't want to see their habitat destroyed because of hunting. 441 Christina Statley Back to signature list The Poudre River is a place for friends and family to have a good time. Not for commercial hunting and boating. 440 Sharon Post Back to signature list Please do not allow this to pass. I am a regular visitor and volunteer at the PLC. I would hate to see the effects of this proposed change on the wonderful programs/environment there. Also, my father was shot by a stranger and seriously injured in a hunting accident when I was young, so I know firsthand how even careful hunters can hurt or be hurt. Please do not allow this to go through. Thank you. 435 William Fisher Back to signature list I am apposed to the request. 433 Ivonne Morales Back to signature list We can't allow things such as these to occur. There are defenseless animals who cannot fight for themselves.We already have other areas where they are already being occupied by humans.Why should we use more? If we were in the animal's position, we would be claimming war to claim what's rightly ours. Greeley has plenty of camp/boating/fishing sites.We aren't far from other cities camps either. 430 Janet Butler Back to signature list Only recently great blue herons were drived off their nests in Greeley because of human activity and vehicles. Don't do the same to our bald eagle nest on the Poudrte. We have little access to naature as it is in Greeley. Let's not ruin the beautiful Poudre Trail access by making a campground area that would drive off the remaining wonderful wildlife. 429 Leo Butler Back to signature list Protect Greeley's limited access to natural settings without putting people and vehicles in the way. 425 Karen Gullickson Back to signature list PETITION:Stop Commercial Hunting&Boating Facility(USR-1778) Page 22 Powned by CoPetition It is so important to keep this area in its natural habitat because of the wildlife. The Poudre Learning Center is a valuable resource for students from the school district and also from other school districts.

The viability of these habitats is PETITION:Stop Commercial Hunting&Boating Facility(USR.1778) Page 23 Powered by aoee,uwn important for the preservation of species, including humans. Riparian habitats are especially imperiled in this region. Human incursions into sensitive riparian habitats diminish the value of the latter. In this case, the nesting area for the bald eagle is particularly important. Imagine the public fury over chasing off our national symbol for the sake of human commotion. 388 Terry Lynch Back to signature list We need to protect this gem and the quiet and tranquility it provides. 377 SeEtta Moss Back to signature list Wildlife watching is a major economic factor in Colorado, and larger than either fishing or hunting. A study commissioned by the Colorado Div of Wildlife found the following economic impact numbers for wildlife watching in 2006: Direct expenditures$703,200,000; Total impact$1,218,200,000 and that this supported 12,780.

Rezoning USR-1778 or permitting camping, speed boating, and hunting there would decrease the attraction greatly. Gone would be the waterfowl. Bald Eagles would no longer nest there. Hunting there would perhaps cause a safety hazard to people on the trail. Would it be an eye sore? Please register my strong disagreement regarding the proposed change. 366 Roslyn Wikoff Back to signature list Please protect this land. Many school children spend time here learning about the outdoors. This would be tainted with the planned development. Bald Eagles nest here as well. Please protect their habitat. 362 Jane Adams Back to signature list Destroying the tranquility and educational values of the Poudre Learning Center would add one more negative mark to the community, on top of scaring off the herons. 347 GARY FENTIMAN Back to signature list Please deny. 343 Josette Schaffer Back to signature list I have taken my first grade students out to the PLC and the trail for field trips. It is often the only natural habitat experience they have. Please, let them continue to experience and learn about nature.

Thank you. 338 Nancy Brigden Back to signature list For so many years we have worked to build a facility that combines a respect for our agricultural heritage and water usage within a setting that promotes a respect for nature. In a rapidly urbanizing environment, proximity to nature is PETITION:Stop Commercial Hunting&Boating Facility(USR-1778) Page 24 Powered by GOPe,nlm, fleeting at best.

This commercial water skiing and hunting enterprise is probably one of the most destructive things that could be done to this area. Please don't destroy one of the few remaining treasures of Northern Colorado. 335 LaRue W. Johnson Back to signature list Folks,this should be a"no brainer". It is totally inconsistent with the establishment of the Learning Center which is progressively becoming more utilized and more surrounded by nature. 331 Barbara G.

Changing the use of the Sebring Reservoir area would negatively impact the environment of the area. Please don't change the zoning to commercial recreation. 328 Mark Bruder Back to signature list Allowing this proposed hunting, camping and water sport facility would, in my opinion, go against the whole idea of the Poudre Trail and the PLC.

The Poudre River Trail area is a significant natural asset of Greeley and Northern Colorado. Let's keep it so. 326 Michelle Renner Back to signature list It is imperative that we protect the habitat of Bald Eagles. This habitat provides not only a home for this noble species, but also a quality learning experience for out counties children and their families. 324 Deryl Gregg Back to signature list We need to stop the High rollers coming in and put little places out. Especially when the little ones are making a big impact to today's youth. 323 Alma Gerbitz Back to signature list Keep it a natural habitaat 319 Traci Mordell Back to signature list Our family has fished on this property on several occasions and have enjoyed the ability to use a well-managed property. In our opinion, the proposed development would be a detriment to the area and the fish and wildlife inhabiting PETITION:Stop Commercial Hunting&Boating Facility(USR-1778) Page 25 Pmeered by OOPeytbn it. 317 Allison Mock-murphy Back to signature list This is a natural area that needs to be saved for all of the people of Greeley! 314 Jeff and Kristina Bain Back to signature list The proposal for USR-1778 appears to allow RVs with generators, high-speed motor boats, and additional hunting. Such uses are noisy, polluting, and potentially dangerous to neighboring land users. As a result, national, state, and city agencies have all raised concerns about the risks to, or loss of,wildlife at the Poudre Learning Center and Poudre River Trail. For these reasons, we must urge a denial of this proposal. 312 Quinn Mock-murphy Back to signature list Please save the Eagles! 302 Robyn Hess Back to signature list The Poudre Trail and the Poudre Learning Center are invaluable resources for Greeley and Weld County.The wildlife corridor is home to many species and the trail provides recreational opportunities for all of the citizens of Weld. The PLC is an exceptional facility that helps students to learn about and appreciate the environment.The sound of motorized vehicles and hunting would likely drive all wildlife out of this zone. Further, it would reduce property prices in surrounding areas. 301 Robert King Back to signature list It's important to consider not only the legal issues of such development near community-based nature areas, but the land-development and ecological issues as well. Sometimes you can't do whatever you want on private land. 300 MaryAnn Murphy Back to signature list Putting an RV park next to PLC will destroy riparian habitat that is necessary for sustainability. My students study the riparian area at PLC and this RV park will be devastating to our research. 299 Allen Shaw Back to signature list Another foolish move by the commissioners and the county. there seems to be way too much of a 'relationship' between the new owner and the commission 298 Lori Reinsvold Back to signature list Greeley and Weld do not need these luxuries. We need to provide a river corridor that allows animals and plants to thrive. 295 Kenneth Musil Back to signature list Visit your State Parks and support their already established recreational activities. 291 Toni Allison Back to signature list The students from Winograd K-8 use this facility year round and it would be a shame if the one open space we have left PETITION:Stop Commercial Hunting 8 Boating Facility(USR-1778) Page 26 cowered by GOPetnlon is tainted. 287 Marcia Maeda Back to signature list Before the eagles began nesting here, the area hosted a heronry for great blue herons, indicative of this place's importance to a variety of species. Please leave Siebring Reservoir to nature. 285 Rick Reeser Back to signature list Other lakes in the same area can be used for recreational pursuits that involve hunting and fishing. Please allow this area to remain natural due to the Eagle nests in the area. 283 Ruth Dick Back to signature list This is too small of an area to allow commercial hunting and water skiing!! Many people come here to view the wildlife and nesting eagles. Hunting and boating would disrupt the peaceful setting and cause all wildlife to flee. 282 Nancy Schutt Back to signature list There are not enough areas left open where there are housing developments. Riding the Poudre Trail and worring about hunters is discontenting. Save the open areas so we can enjoy the eagles and let us continue to feel the enjoyment of quiet natural areas. 279 Judith Shainholtz Back to signature list As a substitute teacher, my students and I enjoyed the knowledge that we received at the PLC 275 Nancy L. Ross Back to signature list Protect our precious nature habitat. 270 Ruby Carrier Back to signature list Thank you for including me on this 269 Richard Trahan Back to signature list The need to respect the environment in this location is obvious. 266 Jason Ortiz Back to signature list It is my opinion that this would have a negative impact on the community and wildlife. What concerns me most is how this would limit the use of the Poudre Learning Center to our students. 255 Mary Driscoll Back to signature list The wildlife in this area need to be protected by not agreeing to the re-zoning change. This area serves as an important resource for educating the public, and furthering the population of Bald Eagles. I don't think this plan is a good option. 249 Elaine Hoff Back to signature list Please DENY this proposal. The"good"that it would provide for a few would be extremely detrimental for many! PETITION:Stop Commercial Hunting&Boating Facility(USR-1778) Page 27 powered by oovefnbn 248 Joan Titre Back to signature list This area should not be zoned for hunting or recreation but kept as an educational/refuge area. School children will be endangered by hunting and wildlife will be negatively impacted by noise and people. 247 E Bradley Back to signature list It is always a good thing to bring new business to the area, however, this location is in my opinion too close to the Bald Eagle pair. I personally find this area a great place to relax and enjoy nature. I also am concerned for the children who visit the area if hunting is allowed. 242 Daniel Baldwin Back to signature list Please do not allow this commercial operation to endanger this natural environment, especially the nesting Bald Eagles 240 Maureen Blackford Back to signature list We need to save the habitat for the eagles and other wildlife 238 Georgia Evans Back to signature list Please keep the motorboats, camping and hunting off that lake. There are plenty of places for us to go recreate that way. let's keep the eagles and give wildlife a place to live too! 237 Rudolph Nuissl Back to signature list While I respect the land owner's right to sell the property for the best available price, I would very much like to see the area adjacent to the Poudre Learning Center and the Poudre River Trail preserved for future generations. Such riparian landscape in this increasingly populated area is rapidly disappearing. In addition, while the right to hunt is protected, hunting along a public trail in a populated area is potentially dangerous. 236 Catherine Hoyt Back to signature list I take several classes a year to the Poudre Learning Center. The PLC is the only outdoor facility I have access to for my field trips. Please do not allow the proposal for boating and water skiing on the adjacent lake. The bald eagles nesting on this property are very valuable to the area as well as for the learning experience for the many students visiting the PLC. 235 april camenisch Back to signature list Some things just need to be left alone. 234 Robert Post Back to signature list Many people worked very hard to make the Poudre Learning Center a reality. I believe the proposed land use change would negatively impact it in a lasting way. 226 William H. Miller Back to signature list I often see the Bald Eagles from the PLC during monthly meetings of the Poudre Heritage Alliance. I am also the president of the Fort Collins Audubon Society, and think that this proposed facility is incompatible with not only the PLC but also with the Bald Eagles. The eagles require long stretches of the river to ensure an adequate food supply(fish)for their young. Also, a hunting and boating facility immediately west of an outdoor classroom is an incompatible use. PETITION:Stop Commercial Hunting&Boating Facility(USER-1778) Page 28 Powered by 9oPeNwn 224 Jeff Stark Back to signature list There aren't very many bald eagles nesting in Colorado, and they all deserve our protection. There are plenty of other places to hunt, camp, and water ski. 222 Jeanne Lipman Back to signature list The creatures we value so much need a voice to protect their habitat. This is for them. 219 Darlene roberts Back to signature list To propose a project that will severely impact wildlife, is unconsciousable. We need a recreational area full of pollution (noise, odors, trash)like we need someone being shot by a stray bullet. It is crucial that at some point we think about other things besides our own misogony and think about the eagles and other wildlife that we may lose forever. Look at the criticism over the irrigation channel. Give us a green zone for everyone to enjoy, not just a few more well-off than most of us. 218 Deborah Dalton Back to signature list There are areas that already exist in our area for hunting boating and camping-to commercially develope property that will intrude and interrupt one of our unique community experiences is uneccesary and should be stopped. 215 Jacque White Back to signature list I do not want to see a camping and skiing area go up near the PLC it would take away from the natural surroundings out there and take away from the Childern who go out to learn about nature because it will run the wildlife out of that area. 213 Sarah French-Hahn Back to signature list This will disrupt the Bald Eagles, as well as the Golden Eagles out there, coyotes, hawks, etc. There is not need to disrupt this delicate ecosystem for a bunch of boaters and hunters who have a plethora of other options! 212 Tami Stoudt Back to signature list Please retain the peaceful integrity of the PLC. This area is so important to preserve, and a commercial venture is not appropriate in this location. I chaperoned a group of students last year and the impressions and discoveries from that experience were invaluable! They were SO excited to view the eagles in the nest, don't endanger that nest. I would not like hunters so near a place where large groups of students and community members are present. Please vote NO! 210 Nicole Bishop Back to signature list We need natural areas for educational purposes so that future generations will see the importance and necessity of preserving wildlife of all types! 207 Richard Bond Back to signature list Too many people, kids, and organizations are invested in the Poudre Learning Center to lesson its value to the community by catering to only a few. 204 J.D. Birchmeier Back to signature list Keep the eagles, put the marina someplace else. PETITION:Stop Commercial Hunting 8 Boating Facility(USR-1778) Page 29 Powered by OoPemron 203 Jack Hicks Back to signature list Please do not develop this recreational site at the expense of the eagles. There's an abundance of other sites suitable for water skiing, develop one of those (but not within hearing distance of the eagles or any other raptor nests). 202 Elena Klaver Back to signature list I go to Weld County to birdwatch, I buy food and gasoline, and urge you to protect the eagles. 201 Kevin Woods Back to signature list I do not feel they should be allowed to develop that are due to the impact that it would have on the Bald Eagle and its nest 197 Marsha Davis Back to signature list Greeley and Weld County have one of the best recreation trails in the country. Please keep it that way. 196 Rosanne Fischer Back to signature list As a second grade teacher, I am concerned about the negative impact the proposed facility would have on the PLC and educational opportunities for our students. There is a lovely recreation area that already exists a short distance from the PLC. It is called Boyd Lake State Park. Let's encourage the use of this and other local facilities that are already in existence while preserving the habitat and learning environment that we have worked hard to create and maintain at the PLC.Thank you. 188 Charles Call Back to signature list Kids need to be able to learn about undisturbed nature. Please do not ruin this pristine area. 178 Penelope Bauer Back to signature list Boaters and fishers, such as myself, have many alternative and better sites for recreation. We needn't impact this particular wildlife habitat. Thank you! 172 Colette Pitcher Back to signature list We need more habitat and less people ruining it. Take a lesson from the City of Greeley sending construction beneath the Great Blue Heron rookery and now we do not have them. Habitat is cheaper to maintain than recreation as well. 160 GAry Lefko Back to signature list Bald Eagle nesting sites have specific nesting dynamics to consider through Division of Wildlife. 159 Harold EVans Back to signature list The proposed land use is totally incompatable with the surrounding land use and the future growth pattern and land uses of Greeley. 155 Cindy Keesis Back to signature list The Poudre Learning Center is a valuble resource for our students in the Greeley schools. The bald eagles at the PLC are of huge interest to the students and lead to many important conversations about ecology, food chains, symbiotic PETITION'.Stop Commercial Hunting&Boating Facility(USR-1778) Page 30 Powered by COPet!Lk n relationships, environmental laws, etc. 152 Stephanie Simmons Back to signature list Please deny this proposal! I bring my 7th grade students out to the PLC site 2 times each year for them to experience doing science investigations outdoors. This proposed use will negatively affect what they are able to see and experience at the PLC. 151 Edwin Meyer Back to signature list Do not allow recreation activities in proximity of Poudre Trail. 150 Allison Schulz Back to signature list Protect this area! It is a pristine habitat and wonderful spot for children to get in touch with nature. I used to live in Greeley and I often return just to take pictures of this exact field. How can the area be an eco-tourism draw if it is no longer beautiful? How can the center teach children about wildlife there when it is no longer exists due to human destruction?The relaxing atmosphere will be ruined by the individuals plans. Do not give them a permit! 147 Bonnie Dean Back to signature list I oppose the grant of a permit for a campground at the proposed location. we have way too much invested in this beautiful area to ruin it with this camping facility. 143 Anne Curry Back to signature list I wish I had more faith in the County Commissioners to do the right thing-for the greatest good... particularly as the children have been put almost at the bottom of the list, given education cuts-but I implore you all to DO THE RIGHT THING, and protect the integrity of the area for the Poudre Learning Center 138 Bruce Broderius Back to signature list The beauty, richness and uniqueness of PLC would be completely compromised! 133 Berle Speer Back to signature list Please save the eagles 128 Thomas Selders Back to signature list Please, please don't approve this. 126 Robert Shreve Back to signature list This project seems to be in direct conflict with the uses that currently take place on the adjacent properties. Discharge of fire arms and the use of motor boats will be very disruptive to the activities in and adjacent to the Pordre River and it's enviorns. 124 Mary Chappell Back to signature list We enjoy our trips to this location,the sollditude is the reason it is always quite and nice to be out. It is also close to home so that we do not have to go far PETITION:Stop Commercial Hunting&Boating Facility(USR-17]8) Page 31 Powered byfoP2,Jan 123 Jan Rogstad Back to signature list The Poudre Learning Center is a magnificent resource to our community. Let's not ruin this fabulous resource to our community and for our children. 120 Kara Whalen Back to signature list I am a teacher in Weld 6 and my school uses the building and surrounding areas for field trips often. Our ability to experience learning outside the classroom would be greatly impacted by this legislation. In a time where money and options are tight for schools, I encourage you to not consider opening this land to hunters, boaters, and campers as it should continue to be an open space for learning and enjoying. 119 Dave Swartz Back to signature list As a user of the Poudre Learning Center(PLC)and as an advocate for the environment, I strongly urge you to NOT approve the commercial hunting,water skiing, and camping facility, refered to as USR-1778. These proposed activities are in direct contrast to the continued work of the PLC, and I believe present a danger to visitors to the PLC and also a danger to the environment. USR-1778 may also be in direct violation of the Clean Water Act as well. 116 Michael Purtill Back to signature list Best Stated: Poudre Learning Center provides a wonderful learning experience for over 14,000 children, annually,from 4 school districts.The Poudre Trail is used year round by County residents cycling and walking while enjoying the serenity and beauty of this trail. Please deny the permit! Thank you for your consideration. Mike Purtill 115 Christina Behrens-DeLaTorre Back to signature list No commercialization! For the community 114 Michelle Vegter Back to signature list I am an camper and enjoy water sports, but the Poudre River Trail is NOT a place for jet skis, hunting, etc. 110 Ruby Sabzevari Back to signature list The Poudre Learning Center and Trail are one of the few spaces we have left where our community can enjoy nature and unspoiled scenery. Student's in our community have very few places to go and learn about nature. To allow someone to change this area to make money is ridiculous, we have enough of that going on in our community. 105 Diane Phillips Back to signature list This would be problematic to the current environment and habitat. 104 Ethel Condon Back to signature list Don't destroy the beauty of nature with commercial pursuits! Mother Nature needs to be left alone. 103 Lois Olson Back to signature list this seems to be a antrocius use of the land that, again, disturbs the wildlife and the serenity of the area. Stray bullets are a real endangerment. We know, we live by the trail. We also know what happened to the Blue Herons. Can we learn a lesson here? PETITION:Stop Commercial Hunting&Boating Facility(USR-1778) Page 32 Powered by GoPeNIon 97 Kathy Sage Back to signature list Protect those eagles-those are viewed every year by thousands of elementary, middle, and high school students. The learning opportunity cannot be replaced. 96 Michael Sidwell Back to signature list I ride by this area on the Poudre Trail every day.All of the RV's and boats already there are an eye sore.Weld County needs to protect this important natural resource. 93 Anne Bell Back to signature list Our UNC grant project introduced teachers to the great resources of the Poudre Learning Center and the Bracewell farm just last summer. These and the Poudre River Trail need to be preserved and not encroached upon by commercial interests. 87 Charmayne Cullom Back to signature list Threats of this operation to the American Symbol-- Bald Eagle--are unacceptable under any circumstances 85 Ray Tschillard Back to signature list The Poudre Learning Center is a place that the citizens of Northern Colorado(over 14, 000 visitors annually)built and in which they have a great deal of pride&ownership, but the pair of bald eagles nesting on the shores of Siebring Reservoir are the crown jewels in this showcase for Northern Colorado and the birthplace for over 20 eaglets. Thank you all for your wonderful support in protecting this incredible asset for the place we all call home. 77 Hazel Gibson Back to signature list Lets keep this part of Greeley/Weld natural and unspoiled. We need some "green"spaces. 70 Holly Bea-Weaver Back to signature list even last summer the jet skiers on the lake were disturbing the bird and wildlife. We need to protect this area, especially since it's where we teach our children about the resources of the Poudre. 69 Sally Sears Back to signature list This is one of the last remaining wild areas in our county. We have a wealth of birds in our area, pelicans, cormorants, wood ducks, white and gold crowned sparrows, downy& hoary woodpeckers, meadowlarks, mergansers, bewick's wrens, barn and cliff swallows, pheasants and wild turkeys, king fishers, kingbirds, evening, blue, black-headed and rose breasted grobeaks, chickadees, gold finches, and most importantly, the bald eagles. Please consider the protecting the majesty of this area. 59 Katherine Rickart Back to signature list The many habitats across the river will suffer from the noise impact. On a personal basis, outboard motors and recreational music will destroy the peace and tranquililty of the private fishing lakes as well as the private hunting business located across the river. 54 Rebecca Ramirez Back to signature list PETITION:Stop Commercial Hunting&Boating Facility(USR-1778) Page 33 Powered by GVPeOlion This specific area was created as learning environment for students, teachers, parents, citizens of the U.

We need to cherish the natural places that we have around Greeley as well as the people who protect them and contribute to the knowledge and appreciation of these precious places. 31 Ruth Firestien Back to signature list This would destroy the pristine area where we see deer, bald eagles and other wild life. These are interesting for the thousands of children that visit the Poudre Learning Center during the year. Some of these children have never seen anything other than concrete and asphalt and houses close together. This is a great open space and should be kept this way without campers and people disturbing things. PETITION:Stop Commercial Hunting 8 Boating Facility(USR-1778) Page 34 Powered by GoPeo,bn 27 Brett Hunter Back to signature list In 2011, it is unfathomable that Weld County would allow one individual to do as he wants sacrificing the needs of the children and residents of this County. The Poudre Trail and the Poudre Learning Center are wonderful positive attractions that provide joy, education and recreation for our community. If this permit is allowed it will not only be very detrimental to the residents of this County, but will deter others from moving here. 22 Terry Hunter Back to signature list As a Greeley/Weld County resident for the last 26 years, certified naturalist and volunteer teacher at the Poudre Learning Center where we teach annually 14,000 students a year,this request for a permit for camping, motorboats, and hunting is very harmful in many important ways. The Poudre Learning Center is a well known "gem"for Greeley and Weld County. We need to protect what provides a quality of life that attracts people to live in our community. Thank-you, Terry Hunter 19 Juliet Trujillo Back to signature list Weld county already has a variety of sites designated for fishing, RV camping, and water activities. The Poudre River trail system is the only area where walkers and cyclists can enjoy the wildlife and beauty of the river without the noise associated with the activities listed above. Please keep this area as it was originally designated. 16 Don Perl Back to signature list More than ever on this devastated planet we have a responsibility to preserve the natural habitat of our fellow travelers- those who share our planet-through space and time. 13 Melissa Parker Back to signature list This would be stupid--this is one of the few areas around Greeley that is open and clear of urban sprawl. 10 Helen La Bounty Back to signature list A walking trail by the lake or bike trail is fine. However, to allow use for a few favored interests is wrong if it spoils the effect for others. Are these users currently paying a fee? 5 Erik and Hannah Staub Back to signature list This is right by the Pouder river Trail and the Pouder learning center...These areas have been here far longer and should be considered a wider use in a county that has very little public land that recreationists can use and enjoy for free.. 3 Claudia Milner Back to signature list Save nature! I am a camper but would rather go somewhere else than to damage the natural habitat of animals and a place for kids to get a real understanding of how fragile and endangered our envirionment! 2 Michael Switzer Back to signature list This is a local educational area. By allowing boating (unsupervised)students will be at risk. Damage to the local ecosystem will be an absolute. Eagles are nesting near the area.

When there is boat activity on the lake, one boat in particular has a stereo system onboard with speakers facing the back of the boat (evidently for the skier to listen to). When that boat is going in a north direction it sounds like I have a stereo system on my patio turned up loud. If that sound carries that well for a mile and a Tarter, I can only imagine what It sounds like around the wildlife habitat down by the river. Camper and trailer sites will only degrade the beauty of the landscape of the river area. Not to mention the human involvement around the habitat of the river animals.

Cindy Johnson cindy6845@comcast.net EXHr 1 Weld County Commissioner Barbara Kirkmeyer 915 Tenth Street P.O. Box 758 Greeley CO 80632 June 21, 2011 Dear Weld County Commissioner Barbara Kirkmeyer, I am a 7th grade science teacher at Severance Middle School. Each Spring I bring 100-125 7th graders to the Poudre Learning Center for 2 days. These are not your average field trips - they are an integral part of my science curriculum where the students practice actual science fieldwork. The first day is to introduce the students to data collection techniques scientists use to collect information about water, plants, soils, and wildlife. The students use this information to plan their own scientific field investigation that they conduct on the second day. Once they have their results, they present the information to their classmates. The students take this investigation very seriously; a list of some of their study questions is attached. Students have expressed to me numerous times that they really felt like a "real" scientist when doing these investigations. I am writing to you about my concerns about the proposal for the commercial hunting,water skiing and camping facility located west of the Poudre Learning Center property that is referred to as USR- 1778. This proposed facility will have a significant impact on the data that my students are able to collect- the increased noise and activity would affect the wildlife in the area and pollution from the boats will affect the water quality. My main concern, however, is for the safety of my students and the thousands of other students that visit this site yearly. If hunting is allowed on this land, my students are not safe there. I do not want to have to send my students back to school without being able to conduct their investigations that they spent hours preparing. These field trips are not easily post-poned, many hours of my time also go into planning and preparing for a safe environment for my students. If this facility is allowed, I will have to seriously consider whether or not I continue to bring my 7th grade students to the Poudre Learning Center and would have to deny them the opportunity to conduct"real" science. For these reasons, I strongly encourage you to deny this proposal as an inappropriate use for this location. Sincerely, �[/7 Stephanie R.

What is the pH, DO and the turbidity of the lake,river,and the marsh? How can you tell the water quality of different bodies of water at the PLC using macro-invertebrates? Does dirt/soil affect the dissolved oxygen or pH of the water? Between the river,PLC Lake,and Other Lake,which body of water has the highest pH level and the best pH level for living organisms? Does the soil type and temperature of the soil affect the biodiversity in an area? How do the Poudre River and Lake compare in levels of DO to other bodies of water in Colorado? Does the depth of the Poudre River affect the pH and dissolved oxygen levels of the water? What are the different organisms in moving water(river)vs. stagnant water at the PLC? What area of water is the best water quality at the PLC for the animals that live there? Which water is the healthiest out of the river,lake,and marsh? Where will I find the largest diversity of animal tracks at the PLC? Do male and female crawdads like different bait? Does the chemistry of the water affect the amount of crayfish we find in standing versus flowing water? What kind of different organisms would you find in the lake,pond,and river,and does the DO,pH and turbidity influence what is found? How do prairie dogs act in their natural environment and how would they act if their environment was disturbed? Do living things affect the pH and DO in water? Do the two lakes at the PLC have different pH levels,temperatures,dissolved oxygen,and turbidity levels? How did the flood affect animal habitats? What was the average size for crayfish in the month of May at the PLC in the lake,the river and the pond? How are the riparian areas of the lake and the river comparable in vegetation,water quality,and soil? Which has more crayfish,the lake or the river? What would the eagle do when others approach its nest in the distance? How do the eaglets react to their surroundings and to their parents? Does the pH and dissolved oxygen level change in deep and shallow water in different spots of the lake? What differences in the soil affect the number of trees in the grassland area compared to the riparian area and the marshland area? Which lake (PLC Lake or West Lake)provides a better habitat for birds? Does moving water affect the quality of water differently than still water? Hello
