The feedlot is approved under MUSR13-0015. That operation relies on an 8" non -potable waterline that connects a series of wells and existing water storage tanks for the daily operation. The line is located in WCR 34 right of way between CR 51 (previously vacated) and CR 53 for approximately 5,000 feet (see attached map). The line was installed in the late 1990's or 2000 by H and S Irrigation however, no documentation in the form of an easement or permit can be found authorizing the pipeline. The contractor who installed the pipe is now out of business and Front Range Feedlots is looking for help in resolving the issue as it appears to be clouding the title to the property. Front Range is requesting approval of a Non -Exclusive License Agreement that will allow the pipeline to remain in place and clean up the title to the property so that the o_peration of the feedlot is not compromised. County Road 34 is a paved County maintained Collector road way. Public works has not had any conflicts or issues with the existing pipeline in the past and support the request for the Non -Exclusive License Agreement. What options exist for the Board? (include consequences, impacts, costs, etc. of options): 1. Approve placing the Non -Exclusive License Agreement on the BOCC agenda. 2. Set up a work session to discuss in more detail. Recommendation: Public works supports the applicants request and recommends placing it on the next available agenda. Approve Schedule Rec mendation Work Session Other/Comments: Perry L.
