The property in question is described as being in Section 19 , Township 5N, Range 67 West of the 6th Principal Meridian in Weld County, CO. Further, it is bounded on the west by the Larimer—Weld County Line, (County Road 13) and is north of Weld County Road 54 approximately 2/3 miles . For your information, the District currently has a 6" water main along the east side of Weld County Road 54 in the above described location, with additional capacity available to provide domestic water service to the proposed residence. Therefore we will commit to serve this residence with a standard 5/8" x 3/A" residential water tap with the understanding that if any line extensions or ether improvements are required to our system to provide this service that they will be done at your expense, and comply to District Specifications, in accordance with the Rules and Regulations of the District. The current tap fee for the above described water tap is $3 , 000 and is subject to change without notice. Lead time for tap installations is normally 3 to 4 weeks, and may vary somewhat dependant upon the time of year and weather conditions . This commitment will expire one year from the date of this letter if a tap -has not been purchased and installed by that date. If you have any 'questions, or should you need additional information, please contact our office. Sincer ly, \ / Oc.v . 1 �Ca.
