Greeley,CO 80631 From: David and Lori Martini 5083 WCR 38 Platteville,CO 80651 Re: Application for Recorded Exemption Brenda Young 5139 WCR3S Platteville,CO 80651 Dear Mr. Gathman, I am writing to you to have on record my position on the proposed access for the Application for Recorded Exemption mentioned above.My wife and I are opposed to allowing the access to the proposed Recorded Exemption via the 30'easement currently being used to access Ms.Young's property for numerous reasons.This driveway is used by several cars per day at this time for just one residence.It is located approximately 30' from the east side of our house.To allow this easement to be the access for an additional dwelling and possibly another at a future date would greatly impact us with increased dust, additional sound and light pollution and a general lack of privacy caused by increased traffic on this road. As it is now,with great reluctance we have had to erect a several hundred foot wood privacy fence around the northeast corner of our property as the current driveway running north/south to Ms.Young's house places headlights directly onto the back of our house any time somebody exits Ms.Young's property at night.This section of driveway is nearly 1000' long,so the duration of exposure is lengthy. The peace and quiet that we originally moved out here for has already been greatly impacted by having just one house to the north of us. As to the current access easement that Ms.Young has for her pi Lipaty,she could have opted to locate her access several hundred feet away from the only existing dwelling in the immediate area at that time,but instead chose to use the old agriculture access road next to our house which at that time saw maybe one vehicle per day for a few weeks during the summer and virtually no traffic for the rest of the year. Moreover,it is my understanding that there is a public right of way on the west side of Section line II which divides Sections 35 and 36 directly north of County Road 38 which would allow access to Ms. Young's property.My wife and I would far more prefer that option as opposed to allowing additional access up Ms.Young's current easement.As to where a drive would be located once Ms Young accessed the proposed Recorded Exemption,I would hope she would take into consideration any additional impact the increased traffic would have on her neighbors and place the driveway accordingly to minimize that effect. If the Planning Board that authorizes Recorded Exemptions has any say as to where that access would be,I would ask that they would take this factor into consideration as well. Thank you for taking the time to allow my wife and I to express our position regarding this matter. I understand that the Weld County Planning Department has guidelines for granting Recorded Exemptions and has sole discretion as to whether an application is approved or denied. If our concerns fall within any of the guidelines and merit consideration,I would greatly appreciate that they be considered in this matter. �erely.1 David Martini pflwt 04-12-05 01:59pm From-USDOL OFFICE OF SOLICITOR 3038441753 T-536 P.02/04 F-004 Jennifer and William Casey 5137 County Road 38 Platteville,Colorado 80651 (970) 535-9290 April 12, 2005 Chris Gathman Weld County Department of Planning Services 1555 N. 17th Avenue Greeley, Colorado 80631 Re: Application for Recorded Exemption Brenda L. Young, 5139 County Road 38,Platteville, CO 80651 Dear Chris: Thank you for taking the time to speak with me last week regarding the above-captioned matter. After discussing this proposed action with you and the affected parties,my husband and I opted not to sign the contractual agreement presented by Ms. Young (attached hereto). As we understand it,this agreement would effectively grant an easement to a new parcel of land as requested by Recorded Exemption No. 1061-36-3- RE-3867. In addition, the agreement would also encompass yet another easement for a future parcel of land, to be identified by the potential buyer at a later date. For the reasons stated herein,we are not comfortable with such broad parameters. By way of background, we purchased our current parcel of land(10 acres) from Ms. Young in 1998. At that time, we resided in Longmont, Colorado in a large single-home subdivision. It was our intent to purchase acreage,build a new home, and reside in a country setting through our retirement years. Ms. Young assured us that she had no plans to subdivide her land and,in fact,explained that she had purchased her existing parcel of land for purposes of farming the property. Obviously,this conversation was verbal and not reduced to writing;however,had we known that Ms. Young contemplated building additional homes on the acreage immediately behind our dwelling,we would have declined the purchase and continued to look for property more suited to our needs. Moreover, it is important to note that the current dilemma we are facing, i.e. granting additional easements to future property owners,is a situation created entirely by Ms. Young. When we purchased our property, Ms.Young opted to sell us the entire acreage adjacent to County Road 38. In doing so, she granted herself an easement for the portion of the road that abuts our property. If she anticipated subdividing her property in the future, she could have easily retained the acreage adjacent to the road, sold us a smaller parcel of land, and thereafter granted us an easement to the mad. Her failure to exercise 04-12-05 01 :59pm From-USDOL OFFICE OF SOLICITOR 3038441753 T-536 P.03/04 F-004 this option now places us in the untenable position of having to forfeit our rights so Ms. Young can develop her land,both now and in the future. By granting Ms. Young the easement she requests, our property rights are notably diminished. For example,the increased traffic on our road, as well as County Roth 38, affects us considerably. Both roads are gravel—creating dust in the summer and mud in the winter. Because Ms. Young's home is set back significantly farther from the road than our residence(indeed,the road at issue dead-ends at her residence),we will assume the brunt of the traffic and road conditions. Finally, it is our understanding that a second, yet unexplored, option exists which would result in an amicable resolution of this matter. Specifically, Ms. Young maybe able to take advantage of a public utility easement west of the existing road and use that easement to gain access to the requested parcel of land. This option is certainly preferable to us, as it provides access from a public road,rather than private property. We understand that the decision to grant or deny Ms. Young's recorded exemption lies solely within the discretion of Weld County. However, we wanted you to understand our position before the requested exemption is taken under advisement by the Planning Department. We are available to discuss this matter further if you have any questions. Again, thank you for the opportunity to voice our concerns. Sincerely, Jennifer Casey Enclosures: As stated, 2 04-12-05 01 :59pm From-USDOL OFFICE OF SOLICITOR 3038441753 T-536 P.04/04 F-004 Brenda L.
