the cost of the improvements except to the extent an assessment
is made against property owned by the County, if any.
Property owners are specifically referred to the schedule
of estimated proposed assessments on file in the office of the
County Clerk from which the approximate amount to be assessed
against any particular lot or parcel of property may be deter-

Commissioners shall order the owners of the abutting property

(30) days after such order to make such connections the Board
shall arrange for the connection to be made and the whold cost
of each connection shall be assessed against the property with

CRS, 1973.

writing concerning the proposed improvements by the owner or
owners of any real property to be assessed will be heard and
determined by the Board of County Commissioners at the meeting
specified above, or at some adjournment thereof , before final
action shall be taken.
G. That the County Engineer shall make an estimate of
the cost of the improvements and shall make a map of the dis-

TO RESIDENTS OF HIGHLAND HILLS AND HIGHLAND PARK
In response to appeals for street improvements from residents of Highland
Hills and Highland Park, the Weld County Board of Commissioners has done
some investigating into the engineering and costs. An Improvement District
(in which Weld County would design and perform the work, allocating pro rata
costs back to the lot owners) is considered the most feasible way to accomplish
the necessary improvements. The proposal includes not only street improvements
to be charged to the individual lots, but also drainage improvements to be
charged to all lots contributing to storm ram-off.
Prior to any formal hearing, which is required by law, the Board has scheduled
an informal meeting for interested residents to meet with the County staff at
7:30 P.M. , Monday, February 2, 1981, in Room #510 - Ed Beatty Hall on the Aims
College Campus. All property owners are invited to attend this meeting to discuss
the proposed Improvement District and the costs associated with it. Fran this we
hope to obtain the general feeling of the owners about the undertaking of such an
improvement. A formal hearing is tentatively scheduled for Monday, February 23,
1981.
Since there is the pending Grapevine Annexation for parts of the affected area
(such as 47th Avenue and the golf course) we have invited representatives from
the City of Greeley to be at this meeting also.
If you are a renter, it would be appreciated if you would forward this notice to
the property owner. For your information and reference, on the back of this
notice is a map of the affected area.

9) Lundvall Subdivision, 1st Addition.
3. The assessments for said improvements may be paid in
fifteen (15) equal annual installments with interest payable
semi-annually.
4 . The assessments will be duevand payable without demand
within thirty (30) days from and after the final publication of
a resolution assessing the whole cost of said improvements
against the real property in the District. In the event any
owner of real property shall fail to pay the whole of such
assessment against his or her property within said thirty (30)
days, then the whole cost of the improvements so assessed
against such property shall be payable in not more than fifteen
(15) equal annual installments of assessments shall be due and
payable at such time as may be determined in and by the assessing
resolution, and the remainder of said installments shall be due
and payable successively on the same day in each year thereafter
until all are paid in full.
5. The rate of interest to be paid on unpaid and deferred
installments shall be later determined by the Board of County
Commissioners and set forth in the assessing resolution. It is
estimated that the interest rate shall not exceed 12% per annum.
6. As shown by the estimates of the Engineer, the probable
total cost of the improvements is approximately $860, 000. 00. The
probable cost per front foot shall be as follows:
a) curbing - $8. 60 per front foot
b) pavement - $17. 60 per front foot
c) miscellaneous such as intersection, aprons,
gutters, etc. - $17 . 50 per front foot.
An allowance shall be allowed whenever existing improvements con-
form to the general plan and such allowance shall be deducted from
the owner' s assessment.
It is anticipated that Weld County will not pay any part of
the cost of the improvements except to the extent an assessment
is made against property owned by the County, if any.
Property owners are specifically referred to the schedule
of estimated proposed assessments on file in the office of the
County Clerk from which the approximate amount to be assessed
against any particular lot or parcel of property may be deter-
mined.
Upon completion of said improvements, or as soon as the
total cost thereof is definitely ascertained, the cost of the
improvements shall be apportioned to the property in the Dis-
trict. Notice of such apportionment shall be given and a
hearing will be held prior to the adoption of a resolution
assessing such cost, all as provided by law.
7. Not less than thirty (30) days after the publication
of this Notice, a resolution authorizing said improvements will
be considered by the Board of County Commissioners , to-wit: c141

Mr. Robert Keiper
2633 49th Avenue
Greeley, Colorado 80631
Tear Mr. Keiper:
This is in response to your recent letter about the condition of the
roads in the Highland Hills area.
We are making a special effort to increase the frequency of grading
the gravel roads in and around our County subAivisions. Forty-seventh
Avenue is a special problan. We grade it sometimes as often as twice
a week, but with the traffic it gets, even that is notenough. Other
Commissioners and I have driven it shortly after it was graded and
also found it to be rough again.
Forty-ninth Avenue and 27th Streets are another story. They are not
maintained by Weld County. They have never been accepted by Weld County
for any maintenance and are still private roads. I would suggest you
contact the developer regarding maintenance on these streets.
If you have any questions, please contact our office or the County
Engineer at 356-4000, extension 750.
Sincerely, /]
Norman Carlson

Dear Commissioners:
I am writing this letter as an irate resident cf 2633 49th Ave. I appeal to
'. ou tc est in your car and ,.ravel 47th :.venue , to 27th .i treet and - `:en onty
49th Avenue, since you are apparently not aware of the state these "paths"
are in. (To call them avenues and streets requires a gigantic -stretch
of one' s imagination. ) Why it has taken me so long to compose this letter
amazes me, perhaps - I had hoped "lightning would strike" the "powers that be"
and something would be done about the above mentioned dirt paths which serve
as roads/streets in this area.
A large part of my present furor has been generated by the fact that since
November of ' 79 to the present, I have had to have my automobile aligned
four (4) times and I assure you that it was not caused by running into curbs,
but rather by the ruts and boulders on the "paths" in question. If- I were
one to question the integrity of political figures , I would be led to think
that you must be in a "pay-off" situation with the alignment businesses in
Greeley. If you multiply four times an average of $14.00 per alignment, we
are not talking about small change. At present, I am waiting for one of
these "paths" to break my axle and I shall promptly send the bill to you.
I also assure you that "excess" speed did not create the alignment problems.
Perhaps that is why you leave the "paths" in such a condition---you do not
have to patrol this area for speeders. Ten miles per hour is top and that' s
taking a risk.
Early this winter the roads in question became so bad that residcnfs literally
cut across a field to get to Highway 34. Now someone has broken bottles
through the field so it makes that route treacherous too.
Please do not give me the excuse that these roads are graded. We have lived
in this area for 11/2 years and in that time only ONCE has anything remotely
resembling a grader been down 49th Avenue. As for 47th and 27th, yes I have
witnessed an occasional machine "playing" around, -but these moments ace rare
indeed. It is also highly questionable as to the good these graders do---you
see there is nothing left to grade and god forbid they should put that blade
down.

I have several examples of the 'boulders which they dig out of the ditch
and throw up onto these "paths". In fact a grader was onto 47th Avenue
and up 27th Street this morning and I would have challenged anyone to see
any difference by noon---except for a few more boulders in the road.
•
I am not suggesting paving these roads. Unfortunately, they have
deteriorated to a point where any lasting repair will be costly. There
is a wonderful substance called "gravel " which appears to work in other
parts of the country but maybe it has not reached Colorado as yet.
Anyway, ."passing lightly the blade" does not cut it.
Yes , I realize one solution is for me to move from this area. We -injoy
it here but L 'm not of such wealth as to afford alignments , new axles ;
or a new car frequently. As yet, I have not moved and even when I do,
it still does not solve the problem, does it?
To quote Eddie from the movie "Network"---"I 'm mad as hell . "---what are
you going to do about it?
