Dear Sir:
It has just today come to my attention that a grain handling
facility that we are building on Union Pacific Railroad
land at Greeley Junction may be at varience with the County
Zoning rules. I would like to ask that you inform us of
these rules, particularly as they pertain to the height
of structures in this area. We will be most happy to
co-operate in any procedure that will comply.
I also would like to mention that It now appears that we
will be continuing our expansion at the Feedlots onto our
remaining 80 acres of land. This expansion has been planned
ever since the acquisition of the land. We have done some
grading and drainage work in preperation for this expansion.
In addition, we have already planted our wind -break trees.
I would be interested in anycomments or suggestions in regard
to this expansion.
Sincerely,
/. _2247/
Kenneth Monfort
Vice President
