Please see the attached .PDF file of the revised letter from JL Walter dated May 31, 2006. This letter was obtained in responsed to the email correspondence below. Their previous letter required the property owners Don and Linda Owens to sign a line extension agreement before water service would be provided to the site. That line extension was based on the anticipated development of Gloraloma Estates as well as a proposed subdivision southeast of Gloraloma Estates. The additional subdivision has been put on hold indefinitely and the water district is now able to serve Gloraloma Estates without a line extension. Please review the attached letter for compliance with the County requirements. Upon receipt of your affirmative, Weld County Planning Staff will set the case and send out for referrals. Thank you for you help with this project. Please contact me if you have any questions or comments. Sean Phipps, PE Project Manager PICKETT ENGINEERING.

I am seeing 2 different issues in the stuff you faxed over on the 11th. First is the Coal Ridge Ditch Company agreement referenced in the fax coversheet. I have no clue what they are talking about. Is that something you want me to work on? Second is the line extension agreement. Although the letter from Central is a"will serve" letter, it is qualified, meaning "we will serve, BUT only if they sign this agreement." To me, that means the letter is of no use unless we see a signed extension agreement in hand at Central. That is all I have for Gloraloma. Is there anything else?

When we last spoke on the phone, you inquired about the status of the agreement with the Coal Ridge Ditch Company. At this point, the ditch company still has not signed the agreement and is requesting payment for attorney's fees before they will sign. The property owners do not feel that these fees are justified and feel the ditch company is using the unsigned agreement as leverage to force that payment. The property owners do not feel that they should be forced to pay these fees when the agreement is mutually agreeable and beneficial to the property owners and the ditch company. I thought there was written correspondence between the property owners' representative and the ditch company detailing this coordination, but I was mistaken. The coordination that has taken place has been via phone conversations exclusively. Therefore, I do not have any supplemental information to provide regarding the ditch company. If you have additional questions regarding this issue, you may contact the property owners' representative, Ed Pruss, or me. Mr. Pruss' work number is 800-654-4788 ext. 2323. Thank you.
