RURAL WATER APPLICATIONS:
JOHN MARKS -BRYNWOOD ON THE RIVER (27 units)-SPUR 66.The Com
mittee recommends approval of a 1”tap subject to inclusion
into the Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District that
portion of Brynwood not presently included and meeting all
requirements of a new connection.
EVERITT ENTERPRISES,INC.Preliminary study by Consulting Water
Engineer Robert Kemp shows that service to the 40 acres
between Larimer Terminals and Elkhorn Club Estates would
probably be from the Highway 34 main.No further information
has been submitted by the applicant,however.
DEER RIDGE,INC.High Drive Heights Association is presently
unable to enter into an extension agreement of the Glacier
Creek main with Deer Ridge Inc.because of its pending court
case.Mr.Webermeier has been so informed.
FAWN VALLEY CHALETS.An opinion was received from Town Attorney
Phipps stating that although the Town has ownership of the
Fall River Estates water system,there is a provision in the
agreement with Lienemann which prohibits extension or use of the
system for anything other than set forth in the agreement.
An extension of the water system to Fawn Valley Chalets then
would require an amendment to the Lienemann agreement.
LONG -LOT 1,BLOCK 5,HYDE PARK ADDITION -61?EXTENSION VARIANCE:
Berry Long submitted a request for a variance from the 6”extension
requirement.His property,which is 50’from the Town’s 2”main,bor
ders Bureau of Reclamation land and,therefore,service will not be
extended beyond his property.The Committee recommends allowing Mr.
Long to install a 2”extension rather than a 6”.
FLOERSH -EXTENSION OF TIME ON WATER TAP:
Dr.Floersh,owner of lots 12 &13 of Stanley Heights,requested a one
year extension on his expired water tap.The Committee recommends a
one year extension be granted but that the current tap fee be paid
allowing credit on the tap fee already paid.
PENSTOCK AGREEMENTS -AMENDMENT:
The Committee recommends approval of the amendment to the U.S.B.R.agree
ment regarding the penstock tap above the Estes Powerplant.The Com
mittee also recommends,upon approval of this amendment by the Town,
School District,and Recreation District,amending the Town/School/
Recreation District penstock agreement accordingly.
FAULTY METER GASKETS -STATEMENT:
The Committee recommends paying the $12 statement from Estes Park
Plumbers for the replacement of faulty meter gaskets at the Prescott
Agency.

and charge for the labor and materials.
WATER STUDY:
As directed by the Water Committee,the Town Administrator contacted
DMJM—PhullipsReister,Inc.regarding a water rate and frequency of
billing study.He reported that hiring DMJM-PR on an hourly basis
appears to be most economical.
MACGREGOR RANCH WATERLINE ROW:
The Committee authorizes the staff to obtain surveying estimates for
the MacGregor Ranch waterline right—of—way which was to be surveyed
after installation.The Committee recommends proceeding with the sur
vey provided there are no major changes in the agreement with Carison
and that the surveying costs approximate the $500 estimated.
