He said one petition is for $79,000 and one is for $58,000. His staff has been working with the agent, Ken Andrews, to obtain further information regarding said valuations. However, the necessary information has not been received, and a lot of work remains to be able to complete the appraisal as presented by the agent. Mr. Lasell also pointed out that the agent is being paid on a contingency basis, according to the amount of the abatement he obtains. Mike Sampson, Chief Appraiser, explained that what the company has provided is not enough to proceed with valuations based on the three approaches. He said he spoke to the agent on Friday, at which time Mr. Andrews indicated they were not sure whether or not to proceed. In response to a question from Commissioner Webster, Mr. Sampson stated he is not confident of the data submitted by the agent, due to the way various deductions are applied. Mr. Sampson further stated that the company had been supplying proper data until this particular agent was retained. After further discussion, Commissioner Hall moved to deny both petitions. Seconded by Commissioner Kirkmeyer, the motion carried unanimously.

He explained the changes he is requesting to the County's normal lease form. Bruce Barker, Assistant County Attorney, explained Mr. Crews has requested the County look at adopting a paid up lease form for those instances where the acreage is less than 40 acres. Mr. Barker stated he is concerned about this being done on a case-by-case basis. Mr. Crews explained his changes affect the assignment section, as well as the one concerning overriding royalties. Commissioner Webster suggested meeting with other oil and gas agents to determine which changes are appropriate for all concerned parties. Mr. Crews stated he would be glad to have the lease under consideration today postponed for a month to allow time for the Commissioners to accomplish this. Commissioner Webster moved to continue said lease to February 17, 1993 at 9:00 a.m. Seconded by Commissioner Hall, the motion carried unanimously. CONSIDER REQUEST FROM PARTNERS FOR EXTENSION OF SENATE BILL 94 PILOT PROJECT WITH DIVISION OF YOUTH SERVICES: Mr. Warden requested this matter be continued for one week, to allow Ms. Griego time to review it.

SECOND READING OF ORDINANCE NO. 30-C, IN MATTER OF AMENDING WELD COUNTY ORDINANCE NO. 30 REGARDING GREELEY-WELD COUNTY AIRPORT AUTHORITY: Commissioner Webster moved to read by title only. Seconded by Commissioner Kirkmeyer, the motion carried unanimously. Tom David read the title of Ordinance No. 30-C into the record. Chairman Harbert asked if there was anyone present who wished to speak. Robert Anderson, former airport board member and present user of the airport, voiced his concerns about a board that is too large. He proposed a board consisting of one City Councilperson, one County Commissioner, and three citizens with three alternates, one from each group. Ward McMurdough spoke about the representation of the entire citizen population versus the citizens concerned in the operation of the airport. He feels this ordinance leads to a diminution of users or individuals highly experienced in airport matters. Commissioner Webster discussed whether or not the representatives on the airport board should represent airport users or the general population. Mr. McMurdough stated he has no problem with one being a representative of the general population; however, he feels three or four would be too many. Mr. Barker advised the Board that this Ordinance was published in the Greeley Tribune on January 8, 1993, as well as in the Windsor Beacon. Bob Kelly, present member of the airport board, discussed the difficulty of operating as a board member without any technical expertise in airports, as well as the difficulty of getting a quorum at their board meetings. Commissioner Hall voiced his opinion against all systems using alternates. He feels it is unfair to expect someone to become deeply involved in a board without being allowed a vote, and he feels a four- member quorum should be workable. (Tape changed to #93-03) Mr. Barker explained the City of Greeley will be considering their ordinance tomorrow evening, the content of which is identical to Ordinance No. 30-C. The City's ordinance will become effective February 2, 1993. Therefore, if the Board changes the Ordinance on this reading, the City needs to be notified. Commissioner Hall moved to amend Ordinance No. 30-C by deleting the paragraph concerning alternate board members. Commissioner Webster seconded the motion. Mr. Barker read the section to be deleted from Ordinance No. 30-C. Discussion ensued as to whether four or five would be the appropriate quorum for said board. On a call for the question, the motion carried unanimously. Mr. Barker then read Ordinance No. 30-C in its entirety, as amended. Mr. McMurdough presented to Mr. Barker a copy of the state statute stating two-thirds of the governing body is required for a quorum. Mr. Barker said that would mean five members instead of four are needed for a quorum. He then reread the third full Minutes - January 18, 1993 Page 3 paragraph of Section 6 with that amendment. Commissioner Kirkmeyer moved to amend the third paragraph of Section 6. Seconded by Commissioner Baxter, the motion carried unanimously. Commissioner Webster moved to approve Ordinance No. 30-C as amended on second reading. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Kirkmeyer. Commissioners Baxter and Webster each made statements concerning their votes. The motion carried unanimously. RESOLUTIONS AND ORDINANCES: The Resolutions were presented and signed as listed on the consent agenda. Ordinance No. 30-C was approved on second reading, as amended. Let the minutes reflect that the above and foregoing actions were attested to and respectfully submitted by the Acting Clerk to the Board.
