Dear Mr. Donkle:
This letter is in response to your request for a water service commitment for up a single
commercial tap, in the location described as follows:
PORTIONS OF SW 1/4, SEC.18, T5N, R67W -- WELD COUNTY, CO Lot B RE 4033
The District provides water service within its service area as defined by the District. The
provision of water service by extension of existing water lines of the District to the above property and
the installation of taps for lots is done under the terms of the Rules and Regulations of the District
established by the Board of the District from time to time. You may obtain a copy of the Rules and
Regulations from the District. This letter outlines the provisions of the Rules and Regulations, however
this letter does not change any provisions of the Rules and Regulations. The Board of the District may
alter and amend the Rules and Regulations at any time, and the provisions of this letter are subject to
alteration and amendment based on changes in the Rules and Regulations of the District.
Based on you projections of.75 ac-ft of water use per year you will need a minimum 3/4" tap.
We currently have a 12" diameter water line located along WCR 13 with additional capacity available
Therefore, we can commit to provide service to the above property, subject to the limitations in this
letter, for one standard 3/4" water tap; and the following additional limitations on the provision of
water service are:
1. All improvements to District facilities required to provide service will be the financial
responsibility of the developer in accordance with the District Rules and Regulations.
2. Little Thompson Water District does not currently accept cash in lieu payments
for water rights for developments. You will be required to provide water rights to
meet the projected needs of the proposed development. LTWD requires a minimum of
1.1 acre-ft of FIRM yield water for each 3/4"tap.
3. You will be required to provide the needed water lines in the proposed development.
4. The design, installation and total cost of the project will be the responsibility of the
developer.
5. There is a $2,000 per hydrant fee that needs to be paid prior to installation of each fire
hydrant. You will be responsible for any improvements or upgrades needed to meet the
required fire flows in your subdivision.
6. Prior to initiating water service, you will need to provide evidence that the property is
included in the Municipal Sub District of the Northern Colorado Water Conservancy
District. You can find information on having your property included at the offices of
the Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District.
This commitment letter will expire two years from the date of this letter if the tap has not been
purchased, paid for and installed by that date of expiration. The current fee for the 3/4" tap consists of
three components:
Plant investment fee: $ 16,500.00
Installation materials: $ 548.00 (with you installing the meter pit and tap)
Water rights: $ 27,300.00 (you will be required to provide the water rights of credits)
YOU ARE HEREBY ADVISED THAT THE RULES, REGULATIONS AND TARIFFS
OF THE DISTRICT ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE; AND THIS
LETTER IS ISSUED WITH THE SPECIFIC LIMITATION THAT THE DISTRICT MAY
CHANGE THE RULES, REGULATIONS AND TARIFFS APPLICABLE TO THE ABOVE
PROPERTY AT ANY TIME WITHOUT NOTICE TO YOU OR ANY PERSON.
