Harbert: CLERIC c: 33 I reside in Johnson Subdivision, Weld County, Greeley. In 1993 our neighbors formed a special improvement district to pave our roads. We followed required proceedures including meeting with Drew Scheltinga, County Engineer. Questions about future use of the roads were raised. At that time traffic into and out of the subdivision was monitored. The specs for the roads were determined by the roads'! use at that time. Now, just two years later, the Larson Subdivision to our west is expanding. It appears the city of Greeley has plans to connect with our streets at B and at 2nd Street. This section of the city has experienced much construction and thus when these roads are opened our traffice will increase tremendously. Also since it will be a straight shot in, I forsee many of the construction deliveries in very weighty trucks being made using 40th Ave. I'm not sure the road will hold up to the weight and increased use. I and other neighbors question the specs meeting additional traffic and why we musticoay for the city to have access to the subdivision and otherby using roads we financed. If these connections were planned before we asked to be paved, we should have been so informed. Attached is a map showing location of the area in question. Your consideration in addressing these issues is greatly appreciated.

BOX 758 GREELEY, COLORADO 80632 Dear Mayor Morton: The Board of Weld Commissioners has received letters and telephone calls from residents in the Johnson Subdivision concerning a proposed street connection into the Larson Subdivision. It is our understanding that the City is requiring the developer of the Larson Subdivision to build a street connection to "B" Street approximately 300' west of 40th Avenue. Presently, the Larson Subdivision has only one access, 43rd Avenue. If the proposed street connection were made, 40th Avenue would be a second access to the Larson Subdivision. In 1993, the residents of Johnson Subdivision created a local improvement district to pay the cost of paving their streets. They are concerned that the extra traffic created by a second access into the Larson Subdivision will deteriorate the condition of their streets. They are particularly concerned about heavy vehicles because of the construction activity in the Larson Subdivision. 950974 Mayor William Morton April 14, 1995 Page 2 The Commissioners believe that the concerns of residents living in the Johnson Subdivision are legitimate. We request the proposed street connection not extend into the Johnson Subdivision and connect to "B" Street. Sincerely, BOARD OF WELD COUNTY COMMISSIONERS Dale K. Hall Chairman of the Board cc: Dorothy Lindahl Drew Scheltinga, County Engineer Bill Sterling, Director of Public Works Steve Bagley, Deputy Director of Public Works Road files: "B" St., 40th Ave. Johnson Subdivision :johnson.ds Hello
