The assessment for said improvements may be paid in ten (10) equal annual installments of principal with installments of interest computed to the unpaid balance at an interest rate of eight percent (8%) simple interest per annum. 4. The assessment will be due and payable without demand within thirty (30) days from and after the final publication of a 920321 DECLARE INTENT TO CREATE WELD COUNTY ROAD 34 LOCAL IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT PAGE 5 Resolution assessing the cost of said improvements, against the real property described herein in Paragraph 2.

As shown by the estimates of the Weld County Engineer, the total cost of the street improvements to be assessed against the property within the district is estimated not to exceed $25,000. This represents an estimate of a portion of the cost of the labor and materials for installation by contract of the hot bituminous pavement and base preparation. The Board of County Commissioners, pursuant to Section 30-20-606, Colorado Revised Statutes, has preliminarily found and determined that each and every described lot or parcel will specifically benefit from the proposed improvements based on the following facts: A. The market value of each of the properties will increase; B. The proposed improvements will adapt the property to a more profitable use; C. There will be an alleviation of fugitive dust, eliminating the health hazards to the benefitted properties and to users of the public roads to be improved; D. The alleviation of fugitive dust will reduce maintenance costs to the subject properties and paving will lessen the maintenance required for a public road; and E. The proposed improvements will facilitate access to each of the properties and thereby increase the convenience of the use of said property. Based on the findings and determinations of the Board of County Commissioners, it is intended that all of the costs of the street improvements will be assessed equally against all of the above described lots, parcels, and tracts, with the 920321 DECLARE INTENT TO CREATE WELD COUNTY ROAD 34 LOCAL IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT PAGE 6 exception of Lots 7-11 of Raterink Subdivision which shall share in a single assessment. Property owners are specifically referred to the schedule of estimated proposed assessments on file in the Office of the Clerk to the Board from which the approximate amount to be assessed against any particular lot, tract, or parcel of property may be determined, but further it is stated that the estimated cost per lot is $1,000 based upon the Engineer's cost divided equally among the 24 lots, parcels, and tracts, with the exception of Lots 7-il of Raterink Subdivision, which shall share a single assessment estimated to be $1000. IT IS FURTHER STATED AS THE INTENT OF THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS THAT THE COST OF INSTALLATION OF HOT BITUMINOUS PAVEMENT AND PREPARATION OF BASE EXCEEDING THE AMOUNT OF $1,000 PER LOT, EXCLUDING INTEREST OR ANY PENALTIES, WILL BE ASSUMED BY THE COUNTY OF WELD. 6. Upon completion of said improvements, or as soon as the total cost thereof is definitely ascertained, the cost of the total improvements shall be apportioned equally to each of the above described lots and parcels. Notice of such apportionment shall be given and a hearing will be held prior to the adoption of a Resolution assessing such cost, all as provided by law. 7. Not less than thirty (30) days after the publication of this Notice, a Resolution authorizing said improvements will be considered by the Board of County Commissioners, to-wit: June 1, 1992, at 9:00 a.m. , or at an adjourned meeting thereafter, in the First Floor Hearing Room of the Weld County Centennial Center, 915 Tenth Street, Greeley, Colorado. 8. A map, estimate, and schedule showing the approximate amount to be assessed and all Resolutions and proceedings are on file and can be seen and examined by any persons at any time during business hours on or before the date referred to in Paragraph 7. 9. All complaints and objections that may be made in writing concerning the proposed improvements by the owner or owners of any real property to be assessed will be heard and considered by the Board of County Commissioners at the meeting specified above, or at some adjournment thereof, before final action shall be taken. 920321 DECLARE INTENT TO CREATE WELD COUNTY ROAD 34 LOCAL IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT PAGE 7 BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS WELD COUNTY, COLORADO BY: DONALD D.
