The traffic goes by much to fast as it is now, check with the Sheriffs office about the numerous complaints and ask us, the residents. Most of us have horses that we ride on the road, that's part of why we live here. The traffic will increase, we already have trucks using our road to bypass weigh stations, Unless they dig down and put in a road base, the paving will have to be redone with in six months, take a look at the hiway they just did. We don't want our taxes going up. These are just a few of the reasons most important to us. Thank You The residents of C.R. 52 Board of County Commissioners PHONE (970) 356-4000, EXT.4218 FAX: (970) 352-0242 P.O. BOX 758 GREELEY, COLORADO 80632 COLORADO February 5, 1997 Larry & Thelma Sullivan 19489 WCR 52 LaSalle, CO 80645 Dear Mr. & Mrs. Sullivan: I am responding to the concerns of "Residents WCR 52" regarding the pavement of WCR 52 between WCR 43 and Hwy. 85. We do our best to upgrade roads that will benefit local residents and the traveling public. Before the Board determines which roads to pave, we consider traffic counts, area traffic patterns, drainage problems, and complaints from private citizens. The Public Works Department receives a tremendous number of complaints regarding the condition of your road. A recent traffic count shows that an average of 409 vehicles travel this section of road daily. It is very difficult and costly to maintain a gravel road with this high volume of traffic. Unfortunately, it is not possible to comply with everyone's wishes. We feel that it is in the public's best interest for WCR 52 between WCR 43 and Hwy. 85 to be included on our paving schedule for 1997. If you have further concerns or problems, please do not hesitate to contact one of the commissioners or Dave Becker, Public Works Operations Director, at (970)356-4000, ext. 3750. Sincerely, BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS WELD COUNTY, COLORADO George .
