Collins, Colorado We the undersigned, ,feel that Section III, Article in the nets proposed regulations for subdividers should be wwnded. We feel that street lighting should be furntobed by the Utility com"'T, which in this case vftld be the Ft, Collins 'Light Company. We understand that this service has been f gushed by the company in the past to the older part of Ft.' Collins and should continue to be a, public service furnished by them, We further feel that in view of the fact that the, new sub- divisions have a higher sseessed vAluation 'and therefore are carrying a fair percentage of their share of the tax load, that the City of Ft. Collins should also furnish the street signs. Again we understand that this has beentakencare of in the Past in the older part of town, and as long as the new Rreas are carrying a large share of the tax load it would seem only fair that the City of Rt. Collins furnish the signs.
