Subject: Clean up at Evanston
Dear Sir
I wish to thank Weld County government for its participation in the clean
up days, this Friday and Saturday last, in Evanston on behalf of myself
and the residents of that area.
Thanks goes in particular to Julie Chester and Robin Newbrey for their
efforts in sponsoring, organizing, enlisting resident participation,
directing and laboring in the cleanup.
Our thanks also to all the other County personnel and volunteers that
participated who I will not name individually for fear that I will leave
someone out. Thanks to all.
Lastly, I would like to thank the Board for voting for a judicious use of
taxpayer's money in supporting this effort.
There were, additionally, other than material aspects to the clean up.
Several residents have mentioned to me in the past a perception that
the Evanston area is a sort of forgotten stepchild so far from the seat of
government in Greeley an isolated as they have become an enclave
surrounded by the towns of Firestone and Frederick. I am sure that this
feeling now has been reduced. Mention was made of having periodic
meetings attended by local residents and personnel from the County
where problems could be discussed and a sense of community pride
fostered. This would help, additionally, to create a sense of cooperation
between the residents and the County to the benefit of both.
Very truly yours
ohn S. Folsom
