Box 758 F`FY °O<o Greeley, CO 80631 Dear Board of County Commissioners: In a resolution you accepted the petitions from over 25 percent of resident landowners in the proposed Prairie View Pest Control District to call for an election of all landowners and leasees of state leased land to see if they were in favor or against organizing a pest control district for grasshopper control . You directed the Weld County Extension Service to prepare ballots and mail them to all landowners and leasees of state leased land. This was done and ballots were mailed on March 14, 1984. We counted the ballots and verification of acres on March 26, 1984 and found 22 in favor and 9 opposed with a total of 24,603 acres valid. There are 74,260 acres in the proposed district. A letter from the U.S. Forest Service verifies there are 28,743 acres of federal land within the boundary. This means that there are 45,497 acres of private and state leased land in the district. They have to vote 50 percent of the private and state leased land and 66 2/3 of those voting have to vote in favor. All of these requirements have been met to establish a Pest Control District in the Prairie View District. The counting committee verifies that the above figures and dates are correct to the best of our knowledge. Sincerely, /ZF<%aLcn t Herb Hansen Mike Lous al t Stanl e L.
