RURAL WATER APPLICATIONS:
UPPER THOMPSON SANITATION DISTRICT/SCHENCK -Mr.Ron Duell of the
Upper Thompson Sanitation District requested the Committee reconsider
Robert Schenck’s request for water service to his residence located
on the Fish Hatchery Road across from Fawn Valley.Mr.Duell explained
that the Upper Thompson Sanitation District is being required by the
State to replace Mr.Schenck’s water supply source and water service
from the Town would provide the best possible source.The Committee
explained that the Town is unable to serve water in this area because
the Fall River line is a flow line with no pressure at Mr.Schenck’s
location.
JACK M.AND ANN M.WOLF —requested water service to serve their resi
dence located on Lot 3,Division 4,High Drive Heights.The Committee
recommends denial at this time in order not to interfere with the
High Drive Water District’s progress and to uphold the Town’s policy
not to extend into the area served by the Hondius water system.
REQUEST FOR PAYMENT OF WATERLINE TO UPLANDS AT FISH CREEK P.U.D.:
A request was received from Sweet Properties Inc.for payment of
$8,144.61 from the Town for oversizing the waterline serving the
Uplands at Fish Creek P.U.D.The Committee recommends Sweet Properties
Inc.be reimbursed $8,144.61 upon receipt of the deed to the waterline.
NORTHERN COLORADO WATER STUDY:
A letter was received from Anne White and J.Ernest Flack of the
University of Colorado asking if the Town would like to participate
in their study of urban water use in the cities and towns of northern
Colorado.The Committee reviewed the sample questionnaire enclosed
with the letter and felt that the information to be derived from the
survey would not provide much benefit to Estes Park,and,therefore,
recommends the Town not participate.

Committee which is a state wide committee which works for adequate
future raw water supplies for domestic,agricultural and commercial
needs for Colorado.Dues would be $250 annually.The Committee
