// MATTER
1 T T
IN �:iHi, l���TTr� OF Lr. lh.lilv7 DRAINAGE DISTRICT .
Gentlemen :
Your petitioner , C . J . Fiedler , is the owner of about 3 . 3 acres of land ,
beinz that part of the NW* of Sec 34 , T . 5 N , R 65 W. , in Weld County , lying North of U . P.
R. R . right of way , and east of C . B . & . R. R . right of way ( proposed ) .
An order was made and entered br your board of County Commissioners on Dec . 22 ,
1927 , determining the boundaries of Latham Drainage District , in which order it was not
intended to describe my said 3 . 3 acres as a part of said district , but in the typewritten
record of whichorder , by clerical mistake , there is a possible ambiguity whereby it might be
interpreted that said land was ordered includea . In said order , as typed and recorded , the
north boundary of said district through said Sec . 34 , and Sec . 26 , and Sec . 27 , said
township and range , is recited :
"Southwest along the south boundary line of right of way of Union Pacific Railroad
to the north and south medial line of southwest quarter of said Sec . 27 ; thence south to the
section line ; thence west 3/4 mile to the point of beginning ( NW cor . Sec . 34 ) . "
Petitioner ' s ownership of said land was not shown as belonging to him in the map
filed by those petitioning for formation of said district . At the election to vote upon the
formation of said district , held Jan. 10 , 1928 , petitioner offered to vote , but the judges
refused to allow him to vote , on the ground he had no right to vote . Petitioner did not know
of said order , nor that his land was , possibly , described therein until after said order
had been entered , and had no opportunity to be heard thereon , and if said order be not
corrected , he will unjustly have his lands clouded as to their title and depreciated in
value without any benefit to him.
Said 3 . 3 acres should not be included within the bour..daries of said district , and
are not seeped , nor saturated with waste , seepage , or spring water , to an extent treY are
not cultivable for the raising of agricultural crops , but are cultivable , useful , and fully
369
so , and would not be benefited by the drainage system proposed , or by any drainage system , and
their drainage would not be conducive to the public health , convenience , utility , or welfare .
On the contrary , said lands are so dry , and so high and free from saturation and seepage , that
petitioner , as a matter of practice , pumps water thereon for irrigation of the same .
I , therefore , respectfully petition that you revise and correct said order as re-
corded so as to not show said 3 . 3 acres as included in said drainage district , but leaving
the north boundary of said district through said section 34 as the south line of Union Pacific
right of way .
Respectfully ,

To the Hon. Board of County Commissioners of Weld County , Colorado ,
Gentlemen:
Your petitioners respectfully show that they are the identical persons who signed
that petition relative to forming the Auburn Drainage District which was presented to your
board on the leth day of February , 1928 . They were then , and are now , respectively the
owners of the several tracts of land described ounosite their names in said petition and
in this petition . On said February 1E , 192E , throuh their committee therein named they
presented said petition asiin:g for the formation of said drainage district and for the
establishment of its boundaries , and for an election to determine whether it could 1,, e !_aw-
fully established . Said petition was signed by the and erg irned s e� en persons and was
brou . ht under C . L. 2107- 17 inclusive , for the establishment of a, drainage district by
election.. At the time of presentation of said petition -the' petitioners were of the belief ,
and so informed your board , that they constituted a majority of the owners of the land
included within the boundaries of said proposed district , to wit :
Beginning at the quarter corner on the East side of Section 26 , Township 5 North ,
Range 65 West of the 6th P. M. ;
Thence West 4 mile ; thence North ' mile ; thence East - mile ; thence North 4
mile ; thence East one mile ; thence North 4 mile ; thence East 4- mile to the center of Section
19 , Township 5 North , Range 64 West of the 6th P. M. ; thence North - mile ; thence East - mile ;
thence South 4 mile ; thence East * mile ; thence south 4 mile ; thence West -- mile ; thence South
4- mile ; thence West 3/4 mile , to the Southwest corner of said Section 19 ; thence South mile ;
thence West * mile ; thence South 4 mile , to the center of Section 25 , Township 5 North , Range
65 ; thence West * mile ; thence South 4 mile ; thence West ; mile ; thence North mile to the
point of beginning .
On said 18th day of February , 1928 , your Board acting upon the representations of
said petition , did pass a resolution assuming to fix , determine and establish the boundaries
of said district as above and designating its name as Auburn Drainage District , and order-
ing an election to be held on the 7th day of March , 1928 , to determine whether said district
should be organized .
On the 19th day of March , 1928 , your Board acting upon the returns of said election ,
entered a further resolution or order declaring said district organized , which order of March
19 , 1926 , was recorded in the office of the County Clerk and Recorder of Weld County in
Book 82 , at page 218 of said records .
Subsequent to the 19th day of March 1926 , your petitioners by careful investigation
of the public records of all the titles and lands within the boundaries so stated for said
proposed Auburn Drainage District have ascertained that in truth and in fact the said seven
petitioners were not a majority of the owners of the lands within said district , but that
several of the tracts of land within said district were held in undivided interests , and in
truth and in fact there were more than thirteen owners of lands within the boundaries so
attempted to be established for said proposed drainage district .
As a matter of law and of fact , by reason of the failure of said petition to bear
the signatures , as petitioners , of a majority of the m ners of said lands , the said petition
was insufficient and did not entitle the petitioners to have said drainage district boundaries
established , nor to have the said orders passed , but in fact the Board of County Commissioners
of Weld County was without any jurisdiction or power either to pass said resolution and
order of February 18 , 1928 , or said resolution of March 19 , 1928 , and the said proc edings
are void and of no effect , and should be cancelled in order to clear the records of any
misunderstanding which might arise on account thereof.
That the undersigned Louis F . Bein , Earl K . Dolton and J . H. Downer are named in
said petition as the committee to present it and are named in your said resolution of March 19 ,
1928 , as the directors of said district , and have not acted as such directors , nor have they
claimed to be such directors since April 4 , 1928 , on which date they assumed ( but as they
now learn without power ) to adopt under C . L. 2169 a report or preliminary estimate of bene-
fits proposed to be assessed to each tract of land in said proposed district . That said three
persons have never acted upon adoption of , or assumed to hold any hearins upon , said estimate
of benefits , or made an7 assessments thereon , or exceptions thereto since learning said mis -
take , and now disclaim that they at any time have had any power as directors of said district .
That no construction has been done , no assessments or taxes have been levied , no bonds have
been voted or issued by said proposed district , nor is there any outstandinp. indebtedness
contracted in its name , or on its behalf .
WHEREFORE , we respectfully pray your Honorable Board to reconsider said petition so
presented on February 18 , 1928 , and to enter a resolution and order declaring that said peti - J
Lion was insuficient and denying the same because not signed by a majority of the owners of
lands within said proposed drainage district , and that you rescind and declare null and void
said resolutions and orders passed and adopted by your Board on February 18 , 1928 , and March
1O , 1928 .

) IN THE MATTER OF AUBURN
' DRAINAGE DISTRICT ORDER
v / DENYING APPLICATION AND
RESCINDING ORDERS OF
FEBRUARY 18 , 1928 , AND
MARCH 19 , 1928 .
Commissioner Straight roved the adoption of the following RESOLUTION :
viHER AS , on February 18 , 1928 , a petition was presented to the . Board of County
Commissioners of Weld County , praying for the formation of Auburn Drainage District and
establishment of its boundaries , and said petition was signed by seven persons , and no more ,
and on the information it then had this Board believed said persons constituted a majority of
the owners of land within the boundaries of said proposed district as described in said petition ,
and the Board relying thereon passed a resolution on said date assuming to grant said petition ,
and later , on March 19 , 1928 , passed a further resolution which was recorded in Book 832
page 218 , Weld County Records , assuming to declare Auburn Drainage District organized an
naming certain three persons its directors ;
AND WHEREAS , subsequently , on petition of all the seven persons who signed said
petition , as well as by independent and skilled title research , it has been learned that
there were then and are now more than thirteen owners of land -,7i thin n the boundaries of said
proposed Auburn Drainage District as described in said resolutions and attempted orders of
February 18 , 1928 , and March 19 , 1928 , wherefore all said petitioners and the persons named
in said orders as directors of said district have now requested the reconsideration of
said petition , and that said orders of February le , 1928 , and March 19 , 1928 , be revoked and
set aside , because said petition presented February 18 , 1928 , was and is insufficient to
give any jurisdiction or power to this Board to Mrant it , or to in any way cause the legal
formation of the district therein prayed ;
AND WHEREAS , it appears neither the members of said proposed drainage district nor
the persons designated as its directors , nor any agency has done any construction of works
for said district , nor has it any outstanding debts , or voted , or issued any bonds or other
evidence of indebtedness , or levied or assumed to levy any taxes or assessments on account
of said district , other than a preliminary report of finding's of benefits under C . L. 2169 ,
April 4 , 1928 , on which report and proposed assessment hearing was never had , and which ,
therefore , never became effective , and which said persons assuming to act as directors now de-
clare they assumed to do by mistake and had no power to adopt , and said persons named as
directors have joined in asking reconsideration of said petition and its denial , and that
said orders so mistakenly entered thereon be set aside and cancelled as null and void ;
NOW , THEREFORE , BE IT RESOLVED :
1 . The Board now reconsiders said petition presented February 18 , 1928 , praying
the formation of Auburn Drainage District and finds and orders said petition insufficient
because it is not signed by a majority of the owners of lands described in said petition
and in the Board ' s order of that date as within the boundaries of Auburn Drainage District ,
and the Board is now and was then without jurisdiction or power to grant the prayer of said
petition or to establish boundaries of any drainage district , and the Board ' s resolutions
and orders of February 18 , 1 , 28 , and of March 19 , 1928 , as recorded March 19 , 1929 , in
Boo ': 8 p:)a -_; e 18 , ; e;;_c� Coy; _ 1_.y Records , assuming to grant said petition and to e.e tahlish
the boundaries of and declare organized a drainage district thereon are revoked and cancelled ,
and are null and void , because based on mistake as to sufficiency and made without jurisdiction
to either establish the boundaries of or to organize or form any drainage district , and the
prayer of said petition of February 18 , 1928 , is refused and all orders heretofore based there-
on are void , because said petition is insufficient to give the Board of County Commissioners
any jurisdiction to form said proposed Auburn Drainage District .
On vote , unanimously carried .
