Mr. Garcia:
Attached please find a copy of a letter we have sent to representatives
of the Sinclair Oil Company.
As you can see from the letter, this oil company is planning to exercise
their right to an easement that goes right across an established housing
development, distrupting many homes and all of the roads in the development.
If you can be any assistance in our attempt to fight this disruption
to our property and roads, please do so. A group of 100 homeowners does
not stand much of a chance in a battle against a huge oil company!
Thank you for considering our problem, and helping with any solution.
Sincerely,
fgaii

Mr. Lang:
It has been brought to the attention of homeowners in lndianhead
West Estates development that the Sinclair Oil Company plans to exercise
their right to the easement that runs under sections of both the Indianhead
Estates and lndianhead Estates West subdivisions. If this proposal is
carried out, there will be great disruptions to all of the homeowners in the
developments, as well as those highly affected by the proposed oil pipeline.
Indianhead Estates development has been in existence on the west
side of County Road 15, just south of US 34, in Weld County, Colorado, for over
30 years. A new portion of the development, lndianhead Estates West, has
been developed for the past three years, and is still undergoing development.
There is only one road into these developments off County Road 15 (Algonquin
Drive.)
It seems unconscionable that Sinclair Oil would disrupt so many
already-established homes / landscapes /fences /and interior roads
to add a 10-inch pipeline right across the entire development. There must
be other solutions to the location of this pipeline: perhaps east along the
southern boundary of Indianhead Estates, then north along County Road 15
right of way. Or, north along the west side of the development, and east along
US 34 right of way to get to the Sinclair property at the corner of US34 and
County Road 15.
If you go ahead with your planned 10-inch pipeline addition, you
will be disrupting many of the residential streets in our development, as well
as the only road into and out of the area. Not to mention the ongoing problem
we will all have with mud and damage to our roads. And the extreme damage
to the lots of those directly affected by the pipeline. We urge you to seek another
alternative route for your pipeline.
Thank you for understanding our concerns, and we look forward to
a more positive response from Sinclair Oil towards our development.
Sincerely,
