M.- intersects the main line track of said railroad. The application alleged that the Commissioners wore making the appiica- tion in compliance with a petition signed by numerous residents of. the adjacent communities of Dover and which they had favorably-considered. Said petition was attached to application and set out as reasons for a change in location of the grade crossing at Dover 'that the change was necessary to have the crossing on'the line of the public highway-between U. S. Highways Nos. 85 and 87 and extending along the north lino of said Township No. 9, Range 66 West of the Gth P.14. so as • to avoid the necessity for persons traveling on said public highway to make a detour one—half mile south to the present crossing at Dover station. It was -claimed this change in location would be a great convenience to the farmers and ranchers in that section of the-state and would also be a great convenience to tourists using the said connecting public highway. A copy of the application was' duly served onthe Union Pacific Railroad Company, and on December 8, 1941, the Commission received from the General /a;, 1 `l`6 • Attorney' for the railroad company an answer to the application, copy of. which was -sent to the County Attorney of Weld County. The answer stated that the Company would have no objection to the relocation of said crossing as desired, provided that, the Company would not have to bear any of the expense involved in the change in location of crossing and also that the County provide and maintain-an adequate • thoroughfare for ingress and egress to and from industries located on the east side of the track at the Dover station. - . ' A reply to the aforesaid letter was received from the County Attorney . by the. Commission on December 15, 1941, advising the Commission that the County Commissioners of Weld County accepted the stipulation of the Company as to the • provisions for adequate public thoroughfares to the industries located on the past side of the track at Dover. station.- No mention uas made in this letter of • the matter of the-necessary expense required to bake the change in the location of the crossing as desired, but ae the change in location of the crossing is entirely for the convenience' of the public, as stated in the petition and application, it is understood that the County does not cuestion its responsibility in this. At any rate, that would be the opinion of. the Commission and will be so specified in the order. The Commission, therefore, finds that the proposed change in location of - the grade crossing at Dover station,in: a public convenience and necessity and sine it appears that all concerned in matters involved in the .change are in agree- ment, the Commission -will, without any further proceedings, make its order accord- ingly. O RDER - IT ,IS THEREFORE ORDERED, That in compliance with Section -29 of the Public Utilities Act, an. amended, a-change-in--the- location of the grade crosdinj—at the Dover station of the Union Pacific Railroad -CompPny to a point -whore-the north line of Section Six (6), Township Nine (9), Range Sixty—six (66) , West of the 6th P.
