RE: Commitment for Service
Dear Mr, Olson:
This letter is in response to your letter of request dated March 17, 2004 wherein you asked
the Longs Peak Water District (District) to commit to provide service to a proposed nine-lot
development (Nesting Crane Ranch) via one standard 5/8" x 3/4" residential water tap per lot,
described as follows: _
A development consisting of nine single family residential lots to be located in Section 30,
Township 3N, Range 68 West of the 6th Principal Meridian in Weid County, Colorado.
Further, this property is described as being located approximately 2500 feet east of WCR 1,
and immediately south of Highway 66, Longmont, CO.
Currently the District does have adequate additional capacity available in the above described
area to accommodate your request. Therefore, we do hereby commit to provide service as requested
subject to the following conditions:
1. All improvements to District facilities required to provide service will be the financial
responsibility of the person(s) requesting service, in accordance with District Bylaws, Policies
and Regulations.
2 All improvements must be completed in accordance with District Specifications and
approved, inspected and accepted in accordance with District Bylaws, Policies and
Regulations.
3. An easement must be provided to the District for water line and appurtenance
installation and maintenance. That easement must be a minimum of 20' wide (extending south
from and parallel to the Highway 66 right-of-way line into the property), and run the entire
east-west distance of the property, as it currently exists. Additional easements may be
required and will be determined when plans for this development are submitted for District
approval, prior to any construction taking place.

4. Previously, you had requested 1,000 gpm fire flow be available. Improvements to our
system would be required to achieve that goal. It is my understanding that residential fire
sprinkler systems will be required on all homes in this development in order to reduce the
required fire flow.
Recent fire flow tests in this area indicate that your new goal of 500 gpm can be met
with no off-site improvements to District facilities. Should that goal revert back to the 1,000
gpm requirement, off-site improvements would be necessary. Those required improvements
are as follows:
a. To achieve 1000 gpm fire flow, the installation of 2 'h miles of 10" (minimum)
water line/valves/appurtenances at an estimated cost of$225,0O0 will be necessary.
b. Water lines within the development would have to be a minimum of 8"
diameter.
This commitment will expire six months from the date of this letter if the taps have not been
purchased and installed by that date.
I hope this provides you with the information you need. If you have questions or need
additional information, please contact our office,
Best regards,
Barry D ees
