October 6,197 Town of Estes Park Attn.:Mr.Vic McCracken Water Deoartment Dear Sir: The Strong Avenue Association,located south of Beaver Point in and near the Ferguson Subdivision,wishes to call to your atten tion the worsening condition of the now existing water line serving our area. Presently,we have 16 property owners with a total number of 22 city water taps.Due to zoning,an increase of to 10 water taps in the area could be possible,if an adequate line were avilable. The water system has become outdated,with the largest nart of the line being only 2’in diameter.Additionally,the edsting line wonders across several properties,for which records of easement grants have not been found.This further adds nroblems of the line being damaged and service interrunted by construction and excavation. Comnoundinthese oroblems is a 3/)4”connection between the line and the new main on verside Drive. It should be nointed out that as of this date,no records have been found of city accentance in years oast of the water line serving Strong Avenue.However,in the same resoect,no records for denial of acceptance have been found. The Strong Avenue Association contends that the Town of Estes Park has some resoonsihility for the line as t now exists,as we feel the town hs infringed on the original installation by selling more water tans for the line than it could adequatelr handle. Consequently,we of the Strong Avenue Association request assistance and consideration by the Town of Estes Park in correctiog the present and future oroblems of the exirmting water line. We have contacted the Upper Thomoson 3anitation District about the oossibility of insta].lin&a new water line on county bad right of way when the new sever line is installed in our area.-iowever, cost estimates are higher than the Association can at t’is afford.Since we feel that the town should share resnonsibility for the existing conditions,we request your views and oronosals on the nening matter. octf’r -_i ‘•3•H hard wwers for the Strong Avenue Association ]Jwv2_,
