Re: Access to Property
Dear Mr. Livengood:
This letter is in response to your letter of November 7, 1999, in which you inquire regarding access to
property located in the North Half(N'/2) of Section 7,Township 7 North,Range 59 West of the 6`"
P.M., Weld County, Colorado. It is the Board's understanding that you formerly gained'access to the
property in question by crossing land now owned by Diversified Operating Corporation("D.O.C.").
Apparently, as of the date of your letter, you had not secured an easement from D.O.C.to cross its
land.
Please be advised that the Board of County Commissioners of Weld County is under no statutory
obligation to provide access to landlocked properties in Weld County. Rather,the only obligation the
Board is subject to regarding access is to refrain from vacating any roadway so as to leave adjoining
land without an established public road or private-access easement connecting said land with another
established public road. C.R.S. § 43-2-303(2)(a). In your case, no roadway adjoining your property
has been vacated by the Board of County Commissioners. Any loss of access you have experienced
appears to be the result of your failure to secure an easement across the D.O.C. property.
If you should have any questions regarding this letter, please feel free to call either Mr.Frank
Hempen, Jr., P.E.,Director, Weld County Public Works Department, at(970) 356-4000,ext. 3750,or
Mr. Bruce T. Barker, Weld County Attorney, at(970) 356-4000 ext.4390.
Sincerely,
Dale K. Hall, Chairman
Board of County Commissioners of
Weld County, Colorado

Dear Weld County Board of Commissioners:
As per the outcome of the November 1, 1999 meeting concerning the vacation of the section line
of county road 82 west of county road 113. I am writing in request of how the commission
proposes that I get to my property as it is now land locked due to the land purchase that the oil
company D.O.C. had made.
My family has accessed our property across what D.O.C. now owns for at least over 40 years, as
we have leased that land for all that time. Your director/county engineer Frank Hempen stated
at that meeting a north access of what is considered county road I 11 is impassable. Therefore,
I am asking how the commission proposes I gain access to my property and continue my
current ranching practices?
Sincerely
Mike Livengood
