Collins, Colorado �_l 4 The Honorable Karl Carson Members of City Council City Hall Ft. Collins, Colorado Gentlemen: We are start_ ng to open up a new area on West Prospect which will be called the Elliott - Miller Foothills West Subdivision. The first Filing has been approved and we are pres- ently proceeding with getting the sewer lines and water lines into the area. Mr. Bingman brought to my attention the fact that we should deposit a certified check or bond with the City to cover these subdivision improvements. In as much as we are paying cash for the materials and the installation and because of the high costs of developing, we are reluctant to have to provide for these installations twice in cash. Again, due to the burden of providing for this work in cash twice, we would like to have the City of Ft. Collins to waive these requirements: Yours very truly, /s/ Alvin L. Miller President Elliott -Miller Const. Co. After some discussion, the matter was referred to the City Attorney and Mr. Miller since he has additional undeveloped property valued above $16,000 , in preparation of posting a bond.
