We represent that the real property listed in this petition(s)will be assessed more than one-half of the estimated $50,000 in costs proposed to be assessed to the local Improvement district. Such improvement district is for the purpose of improving the above described unimproved and unmaintained public right-of way. The specific Improvements we wish to have constructed are as follows: Shape,and grade the above described road to a standard which would allow it allow it to be accepted by the County for maintenance as more specifically stated in Exhibit A,attached hereto and incorporated by this reference. We request that the following materials be used with the following unit costs: See Exhibit B attached hereto and incorporated by this reference. The specific manner of assessments we recommend is as follows The calculation to determine the share of the assessment for each parcel is based on the portion of the road from the southern most point of contact of each parcel with the intersection with WCR 20 as more specifically stated in Exhibit C,C.1,and C.2. The specific manner of payment we recommend is as follows: The estimated cost per property to be paid in full without interest or over a ten year period,at an interest rate of%5.00,with the principal being divided into ten equal annual payments along with interest computed to the unpaid balance. We further understand and acknowledge that we are to be responsible,individually for any grading or other adjustments to our driveways and culverts necessitated by such project Do not sign this petition unless you are an owner of real property benefitting from the project and request to be assessed costs of the Improvements. An owner is a person holding fee title to real property. You are an `owner' if you hold a contract to purchase real property,which obligates you to pay general taxes on that property. In that instance,the seller may not sign this petition. C.D.S. section 3O-2O-6O2(3) and603(3)—Joint tenants and tenants in common should each sign ,?vuv2.,2Q`i Exhibit A Sec.8-6-150.

J. The sponsor(s)of the roadway project shall be responsible for all costs associated with construction of the road. Exhibit B WCR 57 L.I.D. IMPROVEMENT PROJECT CONSTRUCTION COST ESTIMATE Location: From WCR 20 Approximately 0.75 miles North Assumptions: 1. All additional right of way necessary for a 60 foot easement will be dedicated without charge to the project. 2. Roadway width shall be 26 feet. 3. Depth of compacted gravel shall be 4 inches 4. No significant design engineering will be required. Field engineering/survey- ing will be sufficient. 5. Project cost based on time and materials budget of Public Works work force and contract costs. PROJECT CONSTRUCTION ESTIMATE Materials 1. Gravel (2,400 tons @ $2.78/ton) $ 6,672 2. Signs(lump sum) 600 3. Drainage culverts (lump sum) 11,250 Contract Expenses 1. Trucking(10 trucks @ $50/hr for 8.5 hrs/day for 4 days) $17,000 Equipment with Operators 1. Motor grader w/Operator($460/day for 7 days) $ 3,220 2. Roller w/Operator($330/day for 7 days) 2,310 3. Water Truck w/Operator($402/day for 7 days) 2,814 4. Loader w/Operator($671/day for 4 days) 2,684 Miscellaneous Expenses Wield survey, contingency, etc. $ 3,450 TOTAL $50,000 Exhibit C Computation of Assessment Shares Simply stated, this cost breakout calculation is based on the premise that those who use more of the road should pay more of the cost to improve it. Those who use it less should pay less. The cost for each lot should be proportional to the minimum distance needed for access. The calculation that determines the share of the assessment from each lot is designed to achieve a fair allocation of cost based on the minimum amount of the road actually required for access, regardless of where current driveways may be located. The distance from the southern most point of contact with the road to the intersection with WCR 20 is the shortest distance of the road that each lot requires. That distance is calculated as a percent of the whole 3/4 mile section and becomes the individual lot percent usage. Then the sum of this percent usage from all lots is totaled and divided by the individual lot percent usage to yield the individual percent share of the total project costs. See the map, Exhibit C.1, for the southern point of contact for each lot. See the chart, Exhibit C.2, for the determination of proportional share of costs for each lot. The formula for the calculation is as follows: (individual lot % usage) divided by (Sum of all the % usage) equals (individual lot % share) (individual lot % share) multiplied by (the project cost) equals ( $ Share of assessment) a E OD c W O L C / 5 ` O oto N Cu' } N 2 E .cD w Z \ \ N O 0 a N +- = a � U C O O h �• O U H -0 0 ON N iii C Q h 0 0 O Za3o z 3 O 0 s4 -t — a o o sz LS NOM COL L C a) T.)

When Mr. Jervis spoke with us concerning the petition he told us that several of the residents of road had no problem with the petition and that they were in favor of it. Yet, after the fact of signing we discovered this not to be correct information. Mr. &Mrs. Ken McMann and Mr. and Mrs. Fred Wilder are not in favor of this petition. 2. When Mr. Jervis spoke with us he told us that the bottom line would be fifty thousand dollars ($50,000.00) and that if the road costs went over this amount the county would be responsible for the overage. Upon investigating this I have learn that this decision will be up to the county commissioner and that it may be possible for the road to cost us more then the original estimate of fifty thousand($50,000.00). After all the word estimate suggests that it is not a firm bid. But just an estimate. 3. Mr. Jervis also told us that our signatures did matter if they were on the petition or not. Yet, I have discovered that if they were not on the petition the county would not have accepted this petition to begin with. 4. Originally, when this project was first suggested and undertaken it did not seem to be that big of a deal. Yet, as this has progressed it has become a can of worms and has caused difference between the neighbors in the area. For these reasons alone we feel that it may not be the right time in which to move forward with this petition. Maybe at a later date when there can be a mutual agreement between all the neighbors of road 57 we will back a stipulated agreement. But at the present time it is causing dissention in the community with long reaching effects even to the residents of Keensburg. So for the above reasons I, Patricia A. Draper and I, Randall M. Draper am asking the Commissioners who sit on the Weld County Board to remove our names from Mr. John Jervis petition until which time as there can be a mutual agreement between the residents of Road 57. its c3 L Randall M.

A final hearing would follow for which a 30 day notice is required to be published so that means 34-45 days after the preliminary. (total of 60-81 days 1 The assessment occurs after the work is done and there is a hearing with the opportunity to object after the work is completed However, it is also necessary to put this thing on the ballot and the last day for presenting the issue for placement on the ballot by the Clerk and Recorder is September 11 . (Assuming you get the petitions filed the 1st of July , Sept 11 is at the 72 day mark so things could fit ) the election will be November 5 which means actual work will not occur until spring of 2003 at the earliest. However, no assessment will appear until tax bill of January of 2004 . (g. EXHIBIT TO: Weld County Board of Commissioners 7-2-02 FROM: Charles and Kathleen Kovanda 9718 WCR 57 Keenesburg, CO. 80643 303-732-0255 Dear Sirs; We would like to make our feelings clear upon a petition that Mr. Jervis sates he is filing with you. Enclosed you will find a copy of that petition. As a little background- Mr. Jervis called a road meeting at his home approximately two years ago. Only one family showed up. From that response he felt he had the go ahead to do this. REASONS FOR OPPOSITION 1. He has left three property owners without a vote in this matter. He has told them they have no say and that it is a done deal. This was a deliberate move because he knew they would be opposed. 2. His manner of allotting the assessments. He has left people off because "that property is not using the road at present and you can not assess on future possible benefit". Yet he has done just that with two other properties. ( see map that is enclosed) 3. The closeness of the road to the McMann's front door. 4. What other people are told by the County Attorney's and Road Development offices he simply states "that's not true"and dismisses the speaker. 5. He says he only needs to have $26,000 of the monies accounted for to push this through and therefore does not need the rest of us. He arranged the votes that way. 6. Various legal opinions feel that this petition would not stand up to a court challenge. In conclusion we would like to add that he only has the yes vote of three of the families,plus '/2 of another family, that have property on the road. He has given these families multiple votes.

The following are the reasons for the rejection: • 1. Your letter dated November 12, 1999, indicates you have improved a 3/4 mile segment of roadway. In fact, only approximately I900 feet have been improved. Regardless, the improvement will have to be extended a total length of one mile. I am requiring that the additional one quarter mile improvement be completed to ensure the County will not be responsible later. This will also accommodate continuity for potential improvements in the next mile north. 2. The northern terminus of the roadway should include a cul-de-sac with a minimum radius of 50 feet and an easement encompassing the improvement. 3. Currently,there is only a 30-foot right-of-way for the improvement. It will be necessary to dedicate an additional 30 feet of right-of-way along the east side of the E `/s of Section 15, Township 2 North,Range 64 West,which I understand is under your control. 4. The roadway must be constructed with a 60-foot right-of-way that will reflect concentric geometry:Currently,it is offset within the.existing 30 feet of right-of-way,which places the edge of the roadway too close to existing utilities poles creating a safety hazard. g EXHIBIT 07/18/02 13:25 FAX 303 654 8182 PFS 003 Mr: Kenneth L.Madsen December 29, 1999 Page 2 5- Your letter indicates culverts will be installed"as plot accesses are definefl " There is no evidence of culvert installations to facilitate drainage for the existing accesses. Those' culverts must be installed prior to acceptance to ensure that the County does not become responsible'for installation. 6 No cross road pipe has been appropriated on WCR 57 immediately north of the intersection of WCR 20. That pipe should be sized and installed. It also appears that an I8-inch cross road pipe may be required approximately 1500 feet north of the intersection noted above to drain a small watershed on the west side of WCR 57. 7. Ditches are not properly defined along the out side of the roadway. • Very truly yours, B.

I › I , Regarding The 3/4 mile section of WCR 57 north of WCR 20 John Jervis 9780 WCR 57 (303-732-4558) Commissioners Meeting 8/14/02 Why do I want the road improved? 1 .) The road has proven to be a divisive issue among neighbors since it's inception. As the population of users increases, the problems are becoming acute and troublesome. It would be fair to project that this trend will continue. However, if it becomes an accepted County Road, this will no longer be an issue between neighbors. I want a road that will allow the neighbors to be neighborly. 2.) I want a safe road for my family and those who visit. I want it to be safe in all four seasons, year after year. I want it to be safe by widely accepted and trusted public standards. 3.) I want the road to be safe for rapid access by emergency vehicles such as police, ambulance, and fire equipment. 4.) I want the road to be as smooth as possible for our cars to avoid premature aging. 5.) I want drainage to be created to eliminate the seasonal puddles that can be hazardous for months. In addition, the mosquitoes produced are a health risk. 6.) I want the road to be maintained by experts with the appropriate equipment and resources to continuously meet specifications, without the need for neighborhood involvement. I want to avoid the need to create an "Association of Road Users" to manage maintenance.

Box 758 Greeley, Co. 80632 This letter concerns the petition requesting the converting from private road to county road of Rd 57 north of Rd 20. We have numerous concerns and objections to this petition. At present 90%to 100%of the road is located on the easement on the east. Road width is 20-22 feet. Utility poles are located 8-11 feet from the current road and on the edge of, but outside the easement. There is only one culvert located on the west side of the road. There are no real drainage ditches on the roadway. 1. We feel that the author of this petition has been very bias and unfair. He has left out property owners that have property bordering the road. These owners deserve and desire a voice in this matter. The way he has allotted the costs to property owners is not consistent. For instance; Mr. Jervis has applied for and obtained a permit from zoning for a temporary trailer to be placed upon his property for the purpose of building another home on his property. Yet he is not accessed for two "shares" as others are. This is a blatant attempt to not pay for a second house and increased usage of the road as he states is the determing factor for his "shares". 2. Easements are not complete on the west side of the road. The thirty feet required will not be given to the county by at least two of the property owners on the west side of the road. (Exhibit B assumption #1 will not happen) Property owners on the east side have already given thirty feet and have no intention of giving any more. 3. Two people on the road have asthma and other health issues that the increased dust and dirt during construction will aggravate greatly. According to the doctors involved, measures will be needed during construction to control dust. Also possibly oiling of the road on a regular basis, after construction, will be needed if there is an increase in traffic. 4. Safety issues were raised in a letter to Mr. Madsen, dated 12-29-99, concerning the distance from the road of the utility poles. This has not changed. But have the county safety standards changed? It has been suggested that the poles are within the thirty-foot easement and would therefore be the responsibility of the power company to move. The poles do not appear to be within that easement according to the survey pins. Therefor the power company would not be responsible for the cost of moving them. Nor would the people on the east side of the road give up any property to move them. This would locate them closer to people's homes and they are opposed to that. This letter also set forth other improvements necessary to make this a county road. None of these issues are addressed in this petition. Are these reasons no longer valid? (copy of letter enclosed) 5. What about access to the property located to the north of Jervis' and Feather's property. The owners of these two parcels have been left out of this petition. Do they 4. EXHIBIT I not deserve access? Will we need to go through this again at a later date to grant them access? (see map) 6. A couple of years ago HS Resources wanted to use the road to get to their battery and for that use would maintain the road. Mr. Jervis said he required a written proposal and HS Resources said to forget it. 7. For the most part the county gravel roads around us are in no better shape that our private road. Some are worse. When it rains our road is in a lot better shape than the surrounding county gravel roads. There is no need to have our road taken over by the county when it is maintained in better condition than the surrounding county gravel roads and at a lot less cost. Mr. Jervis refuses to participate in the road maintenance unless he approves all decisions. In that instance he does not believe in a majority vote. He does however believe in one for this road petition. 8. Other issues we have are: A. Currently we have a number of speeders on the road. We will need speed limit signs and strict enforcement. Will Weld County Sheriff respond when they are called almost daily with the names of these speeders? We feel the speed limit should be 25 MPH and not the 35-MPH as proposed by Mr. Jervis. This is for the safety of the numerous animals and children on the road. B. Currently the road is privately maintained on an on call basis. (although some people do not feel the need to contribute and force the rest of the people to pay a larger amount each) Will we have maintaince on call with the county? If not, how often will the road be graded? C. Some fences will need to be moved to expand the road to the west. Who will pay this cost, as these property owners are opposed to the road and will not move their fences? D. Who will be responsible for installing and paying the cost of all new and upgraded culverts for all driveways to county specifications? E. The house on the corner of Road 20 and Road 57 is very close to the road now. If the road is widened it will be even closer. They do not want this and we support them them in this. They have unfairly been left off of the petition and told they do not have a say in this.This is just wrong. ALL property owners with property bordering the road should have a vote, not just the ones Mr. Jervis chose to include. F. We have had several legal opinions that feel this petition will not stand up to a court challenge. Who will pay the legal cost for the county to defend this petition when it is litigated, as it will be? G. If the cost of the road improvement is above $50,000 will the petition be null and void or will the (taxpayers)county pay the excess amount?It does not seem right for the taxpayers to be required to pay for what amounts to a driveway. 2d, Chuck& Kathy Kovanda Si--4 r1D Va44-0/0"C Ken& Deb McMann Bob &Marta Sevier feAt �.
