JAN Q Eaton, CO 80615 5 2004 Subj; Case No. PZ-1020 RECEIVED Proposed Appaloosa Acres Development Dear Members of the Dept. of Planning Services, We are writing this letter to express our opposition to the proposed development of the land to the East of us. We bought our lot in 1990, and built our house in 1991. When we were in the process of buying our lot, I remember asking Ivan Gilbaugh (the Developer of Appaloosa Acres....in 1974) if there would ever be any house built out in front of us. He replied that the 50 or so acres out in front were to remain open space or pasture land. At that time, this land was a part of this development, with a bridal path surrounding this land. This land was later planted in corn and beans, and as I remember was very productive farm land. We enjoyed have crops growing out in front of our homes. Some of our concerns with this development are stated below; We would be looking at the back yards and or fences of the houses built there. The area around the development is to be planted in native grasses.....which I am afraid would become weeds. With the way the wind blows out here, I believe that we would be looking at weeds and trash up against the fences of these homes. Our view to the East is really wonderful. Many mornings in the summer we go out and sit on our front porch and watch the sunrise. If they build out there, these views would no longer be there. We are also very concerned with what this development would do to our property values. With our view out our front door being back yards and fences and weeds, we are afraid our property values would go down. We also believe that this development would increase the traffic in this area greatly. There are sure to be some people coming through our development on our private road, trying to access the new development. This would also increase the traffic on CR 74, and could be a potential problem for the bus, stopping for pickup and drop off of students. We also understand that this land is outside of the Urban Growth Boundary. I assume that this boundary is set up by the county and or the nearest city or town,to limit growth outside of certain areas. If this is so, then this issue alone should be a major reason for denying this development. (1 EXHIBIT h 2004-1018 If this was land that was not part of a development, where owners were never told that there would not be homes there, because it was to remain open space or pasture land, then we would not have nearly as much ground to stand on while protesting. But all of us out here in Appaloosa Acres bought and or built with the belief that there would not be a bunch of houses built to the East of us. Now it seems that some people are trying to change the rules, and force this development on all of us that live out here. We have a wonderful life out here. We have great neighbors and friends. Many of us have lived out here for 12 years or more, and plan to remain here for many years to come. We do not want to see this development go in, and forever change our way of life. Please, try and put yourselves in our position, and understand the reasons that we have for opposing this development. We respectfully urge the Dept. of Planning Services to deny the request to develop this area. Thank you for your consideration and your time. Sincerely, an Fo ter .- Teri Foster Weld County Planning Department GREELEY OFFICE 11-D JAN 13 2004 DATE: January 7, 2004 RECEIVED TO: Department of Planning Services 1555 N. 17" Ave. Greeley, CO 80631 FROM: Mike and Karon Long y1'7 it!/lam iv-A"a- 36189 Appy Rd. � �/ Eaton, CO 80615 �--- Yr/a, RE: Case Number PZ— 1020 Development of Property East of Appaloosa Acres We are homeowners in the Appaloosa Acres Subdivision and have been since 1994. The new development being planned for the acreage to the east of our subdivision is of great concern to us as well as the other homeowners in the existing subdivision. When we purchased our home in '94 we were told that there would "never" be development on the farm ground in front of our property. At that time Ivan Gilbaugh owned that property and had also been the developer on the existing Appaloosa Acres Subdivision. We love the quiet/quaint look and feel of our home and the surrounding area, we have wonderful neighbors and we all take care of each other. We would hate to see an area like this disappear. The way the development is proposed we would be looking at the back of the homes in the subdivision, which would include their campers, trailers, boats, RV's, etc. Our view would go from a beautiful view of watching the sunrise, to looking at storage sheds, equipment, and fences. The small open space that has been proposed would become a huge weed field with trash and weeds blowing up against the proposed subdivisions fences. We can also expect homeowners from the proposed subdivision to drive through our subdivision to get to the back of their homes to park vehicles, make deliveries for building materials, etc. The proposal also shows at least t 2 retention ponds on each end of the proposed subdivision. This stale and stagnate water would attract insects, varmints and children wanting to play. All would create a very unsafe environment for not only our subdivision, but also for the proposed subdivision. We have concerns regarding the increase traffic the new subdivision would create. Weld County Road 74 is already becoming a heavily traveled road, and unfortunately, people are traveling very high speeds, we have very seldom (if ever) seen the Highway Patrol on that road. Weld County is very concerned about it's high rate of traffic fatalities, we are concerned that WCR 74 is going to become a death trap for many motorists. The plan for pull-outs, deceleration and acceleration lanes is okay, but there will now be school busses stopping on the road to pick up not just 1 or 2 children, but a subdivision full of children. Motorists will now have to watch for traffic trying to merge into the main lanes as well as traffic turning into the pull —outs. All of the merging, slowing down, and speeding up will be happening very close to the intersection of EXHIBIT 13 1 WCR 74 and WCR 41 another well-traveled road. We have 2 children driving these roads every day, and are very concerned regarding their safety as well as ours with many inexperienced drivers traveling the roads to and from the Eaton High School. There is an existing bridal path that surrounds the acreage for the proposed subdivision that belongs to, and is owned by, Appaloosa Acres Homeowners Association. By looking at the proposal for the subdivision they have moved it to travel along WCR 74. This is totally unacceptable. We would now be riding our horses on a road with a great deal of traffic; and we would have to cross a road entering into the proposed subdivision. This bridal path was an absolute guarantee when we bought our property. This bridal path was one of the main attractions to the Appaloosa Acres Subdivision so we would always have a nice quiet safe place to ride our horses. How would the planners of the proposed subdivision `police' the bridal path to not allow families from their subdivision to use this path? What kind of neighbors are we going to be if every time we see one of their children on the bridal path we 'run' them off? We feel very strongly regarding this issue. We have invested a great deal of emotion, money and time into our property. We are positive that the proposed subdivision would cause the existing homes in Appaloosa Acres to drop significantly in value. Our home is very important to our family as well as being an investment for our future. I sincerely hope that the Planning Commission will look not only at the huge traffic problems this would cause, but also at the wonderful subdivision already existing in Appaloosa Acres. We thank you for the opportunity to voice our opinions regarding the proposed Appaloosa Acres Estates (a name we do not care for). We hope that you value the property and the homeowners of the existing Appaloosa Acres. We sincerely hope there will not be yet another of many, many subdivision springing up in Weld County's beautiful open spaces and farm grounds. We love the agricultural feel of Weld County and would hate for it to disappear completely from our landscape. We have included some photographs to show you how beautiful our subdivision is. These were taken in front of our home facing the east property that is proposed for development. Again, thank you. Y I ial i:r•a 0 " _ .rte I r 'I Imo.

Based upon the proposal submitted by Mr. Cliff and His comments, we believe this proposal is many times better than the existing Appaloosa Acres lots as they now exist. The existing Appalossa Acres is poorly designed by "strip" houses, all gravel roads (dirt mostly) and no apparent maintenance. Mr. Clift has presented a very neat, well designed layout with good access for residences, school and fire. The common area is a great amenity. Because of the access onto WCR 74, road dust will not be a factor and turn lanes make it very safe. We prefer Mr. Cliff's type of design/Plan. It is much superior to the existing Appaloosa Acres existing lots and all of the other"strip" house along WCR 41 south of WCR 74. This"cluster" by Mr. Clift with its own open space between the houses and the adjoining farmland is most desirable. Mr. Cliff's type of rural residence is best suited for families with hobby livestock. The HOA has control over cleanliness and pest control. Isolated Lot A's of recorded exemptions have no pest control. They are adjacent to farmland which can be a problem with the neighboring farmers. The Town of Eaton does not allow livestock, and thus this is a very acceptable alternative. It is our understanding that the Town of Eaton, Eaton Fire Department and Eaton Schools have no objections and are supportive of this application. The land (soil type)that Mr. Clift is proposing to be developed is relatively poor compared to land south and east of the application site. Development for houses need to be along the ridge between us and the Town of Eaton and NOT the top farm land where Governors Ranch and Mappleton subdivisions are located or other land south west and north of the original town of Eaton! In summary, please consider the property owner to the south as not opposing this application. Sincerely, // Thelma Johnson, Secretary J. Quarter Circle Co. E12IrBIT DATE: January 24, 2004 Weld County Planning ' -- GREELEY OFFiCt TO: Department of Planning Services 1555 N. 17th Ave. JAN 2 7 2004 Greeley, CO 80631 RECEIVED FROM: Kirk A. and Jacqueline L. Korth 36285 Appy Rd. Eaton, CO 80615 RE: Case Number PZ— 1020 Development of Property East of Appaloosa Acres We are current residents of Appaloosa Acres Subdivision, adjacent to the proposed development area being considered: Case#PZ-1020. When we purchased our lot in Appaloosa Acres this area in question was a beautiful field of beans and corn. The view of the perfectly straight rows in the morning sunrise was truly a testament to the care of the farmer who so carefully tended to the ground. Without doubt a wonderful place to live and raise our children, making this in fact a wise choice in making this a long term investment. As owners in Appaloosa Acres subdivision we would like to express our concerns of a decrease of value in our property for the following reasons. The proposed development to the east of our subdivision would deprive us and future owners of this view and in its place give us the view into backyard/lot areas where homeowners of the new development would store R.V.s,trailers, auto's etc. as well as the possibility of raised leach fields for the septic systems as the area has a high water table. Fences along back lot boundaries would certainly be lined with tumbleweeds that we fear will be prominent in the open space areas proposed to be native grasses. In addition another concern relating to the decrease in property value is the type and quality of the proposed development. What is the reasoning a developer would purchase and propose a highly populated subdivision in a agricultural area? Are the guidelines less stringent then if this type of development would be built inside the city limits, causing a lower property value. The proposed development indicates a relocation of the current bridle path to an area adjacent to wcr 74 on the south most boundaries. This bridle path easement belongs to and is owned by all property owners in Appaloosa Acres and is maintained and insured by Appaloosa Acres Home Owners Association, moving the bridle path next to wcr 74 would increase risk to all residents using the path by subjecting them to the heavy traffic on wcr 74. Traffic on WCR 74 at times is very heavy and concentrated and travels at a high rate of speed, creating a difficult, and at times a dangerous challenge to turn onto WCR 74 form WCR 41. The proposed development will definitely contribute to the traffic load already carried by WCR 74 and will impede its flow. The entrance for the proposed subdivisions is close to the intersection of WCR 74 and 41. Acceleration/deceleration lanes proposed on 74 for the purpose of speeding up to merge in traffic and slowdown to leave traffic will only provide a dangerous passing zone for those many drivers to impatient to be courteous and slow down. Also keep in mind that this area will also be a school bus stop to pick children up for the new subdivision. Mother matter of concern is drainage. The area being considered for development has flooded on the south end during several storms over the past couple of years. The development of 22 new residences in this area would alter the natural drainage toward the south ditch increasing the risk of flooding to resident of Appaloosa Acres Subdivision. Current topographical maps idicate only a 10' drop in elevation from the proposed area to Lone Tree Creek and less than that amount over the area proposed to be developed. (I EXHIBIT I IC In closing I would like to share my opinions on development of agricultural land outside the urban growth boundaries. It is alarming to see good farm ground bought with the sole intention of selling the water rights off and drying up the land in order to pass it off as non productive farm ground. A disturbing trend to which many Northern Colorado rural communities can confirm has gone on already in this area. rgincere y �,. irk , t a L. Korth � v Ki A. and Ja a K Weld County Planning De,' en, GREELEY OFFICE Weld County Department of Planning Services JAN 2 7 2004 1555 N. 17th Avenue Greeley, Colorado 80631 RECEIVED January 22, 2004 Dear Planning Committee: My name is Bridgette Muse and I am writing this letter in regards to the upcoming hearing on February 3`d for a change of zone from agricultural to residential for lot 15c of Gilbaughs Appaloosa Acres, case number PZ-1020. My husband, Mark Muse and our two daughters reside at 36341 Appy Road, on the north end of Appaloosa Acres. I have many concerns regarding this proposed development: 1. The development calls for houses to be centered around one large center road. This places the rear of the homes facing our existing homes on Appy road and will not be a pleasant view. 2. The developer proposes to use and cross our bridle path without permission from the legal owners, each homeowner in the original replat of Appaloosa Acres. 3. The plan put forth by the developer places a retention pond on the north end near my property. This will be a haven for mosquitoes. I am also concerned about so many septic systems in an area that has been known to form a large lagoon during heavy rain on the south end. 4. Traffic pulling out onto road 74 so close to the intersection of 74 and 41 will become a safety concern. 5. Another concern is that the homeowners in the new development may use our roads to access the rear areas of there properties. I hope that the planning commission will take all of our concerns into consideration. Sincerely, ,1 ' v r Mark &Bridgette Muse ITT Weld County Planning Department GREELEY OFFICE FEB 0 2 2004 „_, January 26, 2004 RECEIVED Department of Planning Services 1555 N. 17th Avenue Greeley, CO 80631 RE: Case No. PZ-1020 To Kim Ogle, Planner: We are strongly opposed to the development of Lot 15C to be known as "Appaloosa Acres Estates"for the following reasons: 1. The preservation of these 60 acres as"prime farm ground" should be seriously considered. When we bought our home 3 years ago,there were beans growing on this ground, and we were told it was farm ground and would remain so. During the following year, Mr. Moody bought this acreage, and immediately sold the water rights, leaving the ground to require rented water to be farmed or to be developed. He was very abrasive, and managed to turn the residents of Appaloosa Acres against him immediately. At that time we formed Appaloosa Acres Homeowner Association to get our road deeded to us as a subdivision so we could present a"united front"to protest his negotiations. Our home was built in 1974, and to my knowledge is the first home built in Appaloosa Acres. I know at that time, it was the intent of Ivan and Joanne Gillbaugh to have these homes, with the bridal path surrounding the east lot, to remain open space. 2. We are confused over the statement in the sketch plan issues "addressed or resolved" that 50% of Lot 15C will be used for"open space to graze horses", when there are "no equestrian facilities other than the existing bridal path". This proposal is showing moving our bridal path on the south side right next to Highway 74. We have not been approached, nor given any consent to move this path. It is our understanding per our attorney John Barry that our existing bridal path cannot be moved or crossed without our consent as a Homeowner's Association. 3. We have issues with the geographical location of this development, since this is in low-lying land that has a history of flooding on the south end. If this new development is allowed, there is a possibility of creating a dam effect that could possibly threaten our homes. My home already has evidence of the crawl space being flooded, and I am told that was within the last 7 years. 4. Depending upon the size, style, and type of homes, this could actually decrease our home values. We have a very nice and unique setting that is rural, with all the conveniences of town that was established 30 years ago. We do not wish to expand this opportunity two-fold in our"front yard" so to speak. 5. The additional 75-100 people residing very close to us would impact all traffic, noise, crime and litter. One of the main attractions to our small, intimate rural area is the openness and quiet of the country. We truly enjoy our spectacular sunrises to the east. If this development is allowed, we will be looking at people's (1 s EXHIBIT P t back yards (vehicles, fences, storage sheds, RVs, etc.) That was not the original intent of our neighborhood. Also, we protest the using of our name "Appaloosa Acres" associated with the new subdivision. 6. In review, we sincerely hope you will recommend denial for this development.

We tried every method of land use for 28 years and never found a way to make the land pay it's way, even when it was free and clear. It was obvious to us that some type of housing development would be the highest and best use for the balance of the farm. The proposed plans will allow several more families to enjoy the benefits of country living and yet allow much of the land to remain open space. I have three concerns which I will outline briefly. 1. The bridle path was designated on the 4th replat and all previous plats as running straight east and west instead of dropping south along my property line. This would have made a very troublesome thing to contemplate: my home, worth approximately $345,000 would have been the only one with the potential of 54 horses riding by on two sides. Mr. Clifford Clift has assured me they will keep the bridle path as it is currently designated on the 4th replat. 2. It appears that the taper of road 74 for the entrance into the subdivision will begin about 1/2 way down my south property line. While I understand the county has a road easement in place, I would like to know how the barrow pit will be handled to accomodate the taper not only in front of my lot but for the remainder of the area up to the subdivision entrance. 4. EXHIBIT • r 414. Joanne Gilbaugh Page -2- 3. My greatest concern is the way the houses are planned to face. I can easily envision looking out my north windows and seeing the corrals, horses, gaudy play equipment, etc. for at least five of the lots. If the houses were placed facing to the outside, they would more easily enjoy looking out on the open space and it would keep their messier areas hidden from not only my view but the view of the 16 owners of property in Gilbaugh's Appaloosa Acres. When we did the original subdivision, that was our plan: face the homes toward the farm land and keep the back yards out of our view. A good drive along road 41 will show evidence as to why this was a good plan. New covenants and proposed county enforcement notwithstanding, I am not hopeful that the view will be pleasant. Perhaps more trees to screen their back yards would also be a solution. Again, I commend the planning of the developers. Sincerely, Joanne Gilbaugh February 3, 2004 Dept. of Planning Services Re: Case# PZ1020 We are writing this letter as we are opposed to the subdivision of 22 homes being proposed for the area northeast of our home. Our family purchased the home where we currently live in 1977. We have lived in this house since 1991. In this amount of time we have seen a tremendous increase in traffic along Road 74 and Road 41. An increase of 22 homes in this area would have a terrific impact on the increased traffic, as well as the number of accidents experienced at the corner of Roads 74 and 41. We are specifically concerned that this subdivision is outside of the growth plan for Eaton. There would be too many houses in our area that take away from the rural setting that we enjoy. With this comes noise, traffic (as mentioned above), and people who will be moving in "from the city" and don't appreciate the rural life, and the responsibilities that come with it ie: farm machinery on the roads during planting &harvesting periods, livestock on or near roadways. They will soon have complaints about the"smell of animals"that we so often hear about. This subdivision would also add to the increase in school population. We are also concerned about the amount of septic systems it would take to support a subdivision of this size outside of the Town of Eaton and what the environmental impact would be. Please let it be known that we are NOT IN FAVOR of this subdivision in our area. Sincerely, \\ , 4 j Nkkily,„Timothy P. Swain and Charlene E. Swain 35921 WCR 41 Eaton, CO 80615 454-2340 4.

Notary Public My Commission Expires: law" EXHIBIT Petition Opposing the Development of Appaloosa Acres Estates The members and property owners of Appaloosa Acres are presenting this signed petition opposing the development of Appaloosa Acres Estates case number PZ-1020. We are opposed to this development for the following reasons stated below: Bridle path: The bridle path on the proposed plat has been moved. We as homeowners of Appaloosa Acres strongly oppose this, because the developer would move the path directly next to highly traveled WCR 74. The developer has not had any communication with AAHOA in the redesign of the bridle path. The bridle path is for non motor vehicle use only; residents of AAE would have to cross the bridle path to enter AAE. This will cause obstructions to those using the path as intended. AAHOA is responsible for the liability insurance on the path, and would be liable for others using the path with or without our consent. Urban growth boundaries: This development is outside the boundaries of the urban growth area. We have invested in our properties with the understanding this area was well outside the growth area. Some of us moved to the country for the open space and others have moved to, or have lived in the area, to continue to farm the land. Open space: This land has been designated open space. This land was a very productive farm until a few years ago when the land was purchased and the water was sold. The land is still farmable with the option of renting water. Many of the homeowners of Appaloosa Acres bout their properties with the understanding and verbal assurance from Ivan Gilbaugh that this property would also always be open space used as pasture, crops or as shown on the current plat only 1 home on it. The developer proposes the new development will not have equestrian facilities but also states the open space will be used for grazing horses. The developer also proposes to plant the open space with native grasses. Our concern is this would be overtaken by nocuous weeds. = EXHIBIT Traffic: WCR 74 is a heavily traveled road with speeds reaching well over the posted speed limit. We feel this is a dangerous situation with an increase of population will increase the number of accidents. The plan for pull-outs, deceleration and acceleration lanes look like a good option on paper, but this is still an increase of traffic at the intersection of 74 and 41. There would also be an increase of traffic directly to the private road in Appaloosa Acres. People looking for access in AAE would become confused not knowing the area. Property owners from AAE would try to access their back yards using our private road, again crossing our bridal path with motor vehicles. Noise: We feel that the impact of an additional 22 homes in such close proximity would generate unwanted noise. We bought here for the quiet, country feel of the area, which will be compromised with this development. Property value: We as property owners fear that our property would decrease in value. We will loose our open space, which is what makes this area desirable to many. View: The front of our properties would be facing the back yards of the development. Backyards are usually used for storage sheds, vehicles, trailers, RV's animal kennels, corrals etc. Currently we have a beautiful open field with wonderful sunrises. Drainage: The south end of the proposed development property is a low spot. When heavy rains have occurred, as they have several time in the last few years, this area is covered in water for a long period of time. Not only is that a haiard for the proposed new residents of AAE but also to the residents to the east and west. If the water were to drain onto the adjacent properties and roads, it could possibly flood foundations in the development. Water diverted to a retention pond would increase the dangers of insects and insect diseases. • SIGNATURES OF THOSE OPPOSING DEVELOPMENT OF AAE CASE NUMBER P7>1020 142 //�, I i 2�/ os� '' T a //241/or t date Signature date S z31/412 d . 142_011-,244-0(4 —7--Ct.c i.,H>. � I /24-joy ii:edate Signature date 36: z85 4Poi Romp Env./ Co 3432-1 .4*5 £4. 6)t hM C-ti Address Address (9 76) 145Y - //3 e et le' fry 2rf4 Phone number Phone number / a U_o el 724e&'t /, —mot Si date Si date Ai- ` -g- 40-(____ /7r -� cum %r i/a i-410c/ Signature ' date/ Si date 3623?/ /A pro, K1 Ea.-4o,A Lo awl 'e T.

Not only is that a hazard for the proposed new residents of AAE but also to the residents to the east and west. If the water were to drain onto the adjacent properties and roads, it could possibly flood foundations in the development. Water diverted to a retention pond would increase the dangers of insects and insect diseases.

BEDINGFIELD JACQUELINE JOHNSON lbarry@WOBB-LLPcom PATRICK M.GROOM TIMOTHY V.CLANCY January 23, 2004 Appaloosa Acres Homeowners Association, Inc. Atten: Dan Foster 37329 Appy Road Eaton, CO 80615 Dear Dan: As you have requested, I have reviewed once again the issue of a potential developer's proposal to make changes to the existing bridle path in which all of the Appaloosa Acres' Homeowners have an interest. As you know, I have some familiarity with this issue, as I have addressed it over the past several years when various developers have expressed some interest in developing the acreage surrounded by the bridle path. I am enclosing herewith a copy of the letter which I sent to Rick Troxel, one of the Appaloosa Acres Homeowners,who requested that I review the issue concerning the bridle path in April 2000. As my letter to Mr. Troxel set forth,the covenants which were recorded on December 30, 1974 at Reception No. 1651101 provide that"each and every one of these covenants, conditions, reservations and restrictions is and are all for the benefit of each owner of land in such subdivision..." Paragraph 5 of the recorded covenants makes reference to the "bridle paths shown on the replat of Gilbaugh's Appaloosa Acres as recorded in Weld County Records." Thus, when the covenants were recorded, and when the plat was recorded, each of the approximate 15 owners of lots in the Gilbaugh's Appaloosa Acres subdivision had vested rights in the bridle paths as well as the other property rights referenced in the covenants. The bridle paths were are as shown on the replat of Gilbaugh's Appaloosa Acres recorded with the Clerk and Recorder's Office. In other words,by recording the plat and referencing the covenants, Mr. and Mrs. Gilbaugh placed every homeowner in the subdivision with individual vested rights in the bridle paths. I do not see anywhere in the covenants or on the plat that the Gilbaughs reserved any rights in the bridle path area to allow them or their successors to utilize or convey any of the bridle path. Thus, it appears to me that the only persons with any rights in the bridle path are those who are owners of the lots in the Gilbaugh's Appaloosa Acres. Presumably, when each owner acquired his or her interest in a lot in Gilbaugh's Appaloosa Acres, such purchaser relied upon the covenants and the assurance that they would have an unobstructed use of the bridle paths when making their purchase decision. As a vested property right, I do not believe that either the Gilbaughs or their successors have any right to attempt to change the location of the bridle paths,to alter the use of the bridle paths or to attempt to allow other persons or parties to make use of the bridle paths in any way. I do not even believe that the Gilbaughs or their successors would have the right to authorize other -- parties to utilize the bridle paths even if solely for bridle path purposes. EXHIBIT I WITWER, OLDENBURG, BARRY &BEDINGFIELD, LLP Appaloosa Acres Homeowners Association, Inc. Atten: Dan Foster January 23, 2004 Page As with other covenants granting each lot owner within a subdivision certain vested rights in property, I believe that any change in the location or use of the bridle path would take the unanimous written consent of each of the owners of lots in Appaloosa Acres. The Homeowner's Association was created to undertake the job of owning, insuring and maintaining Appy Road and Appaloosa Lane, which are roads which merely provide the private access to the Appaloosa lots in question. The Homeowner's Association itself does not have any interests in the bridle paths, and it would certainly not have the ability to grant to any person or party the right to move the bridle path or alter its use or allow any additional use thereof. As you may be aware, J. Moody, who acquired the acreage surrounded by the bridle path from the Gilbaughs,attempted a development of the property by proposing to the homeowners that the bridle path be moved in order to suit his development plans. I understand that such proposal met with no acceptance from the Homeowners, and that Mr. Moody thereupon abandoned any such development plans. I enclose herewith for your reference a copy of the letter of April 17,2001 which Mr. Moody apparently forwarded to a number of homeowners. I also enclose herewith a copy of the letter of May 10,2000 to Mr.and Mrs. Rick Troxel from Charles Connell, who was Mr. and Mrs. Gilbaugh's attorney referencing a plan to move the bridle path in order to allow Moody to attempt development of the property. I believe in those letters you can see that both the Gilbaughs and Mr. Moody were aware of the fact that the homeowners had vested rights in the bridle path and that,despite the developer's threats,the developer could not force any relocation or other alteration of the bridle path. I do not believe that the circumstances have changed since Gilbaugh and Moody attempted to address that issue. I hope that the foregoing is helpful to your understanding of the rights in the bridle path as I understand them and what has transpired over the past several years. If I can be of any additional help or if you should have any questions which you believe I can answer, please feel free to contact me at your convenience.

I have similarly reviewed the various blueprints which you furnished me, which I believe were recorded with the Weld County Clerk and Recorder's Office. I examined these documents with particular regard to the rights of the various owners of lots in Gilbaugh's Appaloosa Acres in and to the bridle path which is referenced in the recorded covenants and is more particularly reflected in the recorded plat. The recorded covenants, at the second paragraph thereof,make specific reference to the fact that the covenants and conditions are for the benefit of each owner of the land and each subdivision or any interest therein and shall, in essence, run with the land. Accordingly, each owner of a parcel within the Gilbaugh Appaloosa Acres Subdivision has the right and ability to enforce the covenants, reservations and restrictions which were recorded in December, 1974. Specific reference is made to the bridle paths in paragraph 5, by making specific reference to the paths as shown on the replat of Gilbaugh's Appaloosa Acres. Effectively, the recording of the replat and the reference within the covenants affixes each parcel owner's right to rely upon the dedication of the bridle path and its location as shown on the replat. Additionally, it is my understanding that the bridle path has been used for a number of years, and, at least to some lot owner's belief, adds significant enhancement to the beauty, use and value of each lot in the subdivision. Paragraph 13 of the recorded covenants sets forth the remedies for any violation of any of the covenants and restrictions set forth in the document. It naturally describes that each lot owner individually or collectively has the right to enforce those rights. Such can be done by either a suit for damages to each lot owner as may be measured by a Court of Law, or, alternatively, each lot owner has the right to enforce the covenants by seeking an injunction, enjoining any breach of the WITWER, OLDENBURG, BARRY &BEDINGFIELD, LLP Rick Troxel April 12, 2000 Page 2 covenants. These remedies are consistent with what would be available to a lot owner at common law for enforcement of his or her rights. In sum,it is my opinion that each lot owner within the Gilbaugh's Appaloosa Acres Subdivision has, individually or collectively,the right to seek appropriate relief in Court to enjoin any obstruction of the use of the bridle path, alteration of the path or location of the bridle path, or any other significant change or adjustment affecting the use of the bridle path as it is shown on the recorded replat. As additional strength to each lot owner's position, a Court would consider the nature of the continuous use of the bridle path and in particular whether that use has continued without interruption or objection for a considerable period of years. I trust that the foregoing is helpful to you in evaluating your rights as a lot owner in the subdivision, and in assessing your position with regard to any proposed change in the use or location of the bridle path. If you should wish to discuss this further, or if you should have any questions with regard to what I have said, please feel free to call upon me at your convenience.
