April 28, 1965
To: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
Some weeks ago Leslie G. Everitt, as Chairman of the Board of SEB, INC., in a
response to a request by the `'ity, wrote the City Council and agreed that Williams Lake
could be Ua ed for a pond in mhi'c h to dump storm sewdr'•water.by'the City,'so'-long as'provi-
5ion'was made for drainage of excess water, and certain other conditions mentioned in the
letter.
This matter was discussed with the City Planner and the City Engineer, and it
appeared that the problems could 'very easily be worked out. It is certainly not to the ad-
vantage of SEB, INC. to have the lake used for this purpose, but in an attempt to cooperate
as fully as possible with the City, Mr. Everitt agreed to such use.
It is my understanding that at this time the City Engineer and the Uity Planner
are refusing to approve the utility plat of the area around Williams Lake which is now being
developed and ready for homes, until the storm drain question is determined.
SEB, INC. HAS DONE EVERYTHING IT CAN TO COOPERATE, AND I do not feel that there
Is any justification in holding up the approval of the utility plat when we can co nothing
further than has been heretofore agreed upon to make the lake available.
I would appreciate your advising the City Manager, the City Engineer and the City
Engineer and the City Planner that the question of the use of Williams Lake should not be us
as a means of holdin up approval of an otherwise acceptable utility plan.
Very truly yours,
Is/ William H. Allen

Mr. Adam Fischer
City Engineer
Fort Collins, Colorado Re: Paving of Stover Road South College
Heights 7th Sub., Fort Collins, Colo.
Dear Mr. Fischer:
As a result of our meeting with you last Monday, April 26th concerning the above
paving, we have met with both FHA and VA officials to determine if our escrow agreement
with the City would be acceptable to them. We have explained to them that to pave the West
one-half of Stover at this time would involve undercutting existing irrigation ditches in
use in the East one-half of the proposed right -or -way in another ownership.
Both FHA and VA have indicated that they are agreeable to a contract where we would
give to the City an amount sufficient to eventually pave Stover Street to city standards.
Their main concern is that: 1. An all-weather road will be maintained by the City. 2.
Paving will be completed within one year at no expense or assessment to the abutting pro-
perty owners.
As discussed with you, it was believed that the interest the City would receive on
the $8400.00 estimated cost would pay for any required maintenance. The FHA required one
year completion date is somewhat of a problem since it is doubtful you will be able to
pave within that time. However, once this agreement is in effect, I don't see any way
FHA could cause the street to be paved if it ;s not ready. As you know the street will not
be used very much until it is extended to the north or south.
We have drawn up a contract which is. agreeable to FHA and VA and which we hope will
be agreeable to the City. Two cc pies are enclosed for your consideration. Since we have
completed all other elements of the subdivision and will no longer have offices in Fort
Collins, we feel that this agreement would be the best arrangement for all concerned.
We certainly appreciate the time that you have spent with us on this matter.
Very truly yours,
CACHE INVESTMENT CO.

April 28, 1965
TO, Mr. Robert Boos, City Manager
FROM: Roy E. Hollady
SUBJECT: Noise Complaints - Rauch Motors, 2000 South College
Sir:
On Wednesday, April 21, 1965, Officer William Cartwright was instructed by this officer
to inform Mr. Jack Rauch that your office had received several complaints about the loud
music coming from the loudspeakees at his place of business. Officer Cartwright contacted
Mr. Rauch and informed him of the complaints and requested thatths volume be lowered so
that it would not disturb the neighbors in the immediate neighborhood. Mr. Rauch indicated
to Officer Cartwright that he would comply with the request.
Early on April 23, 1965, in the morning, your office notified this office that another com-
plaint had been lodged before the city council relative to the continued loud noise coming
from the Rauch lot. At approximately 2:30 P.M. that date Asstt Chief Howe was instructed
to investigate the noise again. Ass+t Chief Howe aporoached the lot from College Avenue
in an attempt to make a judgement as to the amount of noise coming from the lot. He then
went around on Remington Street and listened from that vantage point. He went again to Mr.
Rauch and told him that complaints had resumed. Mr. Rauch told Ass't Chief Hose that he
volume was on the lowest point and that he could not lower it anymore. Ass1t Chief Howe
came back to this office and informed this officer that t he noise was not disturbing in any
manner. The volume was extnmly low and that a person would have to stop and intentionally
listen to vaguely hear the music.
229
At 10:30 A.M. on April 27, 1965, this officer visited the Rauch lot and could hear no dis-
turbing noises at all. Upon Fretting close to the lot one can hear the music but it is not
dusturbing in any way. Again on 'Tuesday night, April 27, 1965, this officer went to t he lot
at 8:15 P.M. The music was not playing at that time.
On Wednesday, April 28, 1965, the Rauch lot was visited again by this officer and the music
was not discernable. We went around to the dead end at Remington and listened and could
just vaguely hear it.
It is the opinion of Asset Chief Howe, Officer William Cartwright and this officer that if
the music is being played at this volume it could not possibly be a disturbance in he area.
Respectfully submitted,
/s/ Roy E. Hollady
Chief of Police
Mr. Rauch was present and explained that he had made every effort to reduce the
volume of the loud speakers which were broadcasting the music and had it down to the very
minimum. He said that he felt that the complaints of Mrs. Curtis of loud and racous noise
was somewhat exaEprated. It appears that others had made some investigation and that the
broadcasting was not out of line sufficient to being a nuisance. After further discussion,
by the Council, motion was made by Councilman Carson, seconded by Councilman Bennett, 'that
the report of the Chief of Police be accepted. Roll was called resulting as follows: Ayes:
Councilmen Johnson, Carson, McMillan, Bennett and Councilwoman Quinn. Noyes; None. The
sident declared the motion adopted.

III Request for paving by contract with the City.
a.) Spring Park Drive from Remington to Mathews.
b.) Mathews from Spring Park Drive to Dartmouth.
Section 15-55, of the City Code of Ordinances, provides that the Council may place
in an improvement district a street upon which the owners of one-third of the frontage to
be assessed have signed a petition for the improvement. In addition, 'under the same sec-
tion, the Councillmay place in an improvement district, without a valid petition, a street
which would join, in a distance of one block or less, two sections of the same street
alread y paved. Under the first provision all of the streets in Group I above could be
placed in a district and if the Council so desired, it could under the second provision,
also include the two streets in Group II.
The streets of Group III involve only two property owners ...The City of Fort Collin
and Jack Rauch of the Rauch Motor Company. Mr. Rauch has requested that thetwo streets be
paved on a cash contract basis, rather than being placed in an improvement district. Mr.
Rauch would ask that the City do the engineering, engage a qualified contractor, on.a bid
basis, and that the total cost ... engineering, inspection and construction.. be shared
equally between he and the City.
Special attention is called to the restriction in right-of-way on Cherry Street,
The right-of-way is only 35 feet for a distance of approximately 57 feet West of Pearl
Street. It would be impossible to gain any additional right-of-way in this section without
removing a dwelling on Lot 5. There is another restriction in the right-of-way immediately
East of Tedmon Drive, where for a distance of 100 feet, the right-of-way width is only 25
feet. No structures preclude the acquisition of an additional 25 feet of right-of-way in
this section, but the owner has made some rather definite demands regarding compensation,
he would expect for it. It would be the owner's position that he either be paid for the
additional 25 feet of right-of-way at the rate of $ 0.75 per square foot (approximately
$1,875.00) or that he be granted free two water taps and two sewer taps.
A sketch of each of the proposed improvements is attached for Council's information.
The pleasure of Council is respectfully requested.

Robert F. Boos
City Manager Re: Inspection of bridges at City Water
Treatment Plant
As you directed an inspection has been made of the two bridges crossing the Poudre
River at the Water Treatment Plant.
T These bridges provide the sole access to the Seaman Reservoir of the City of dreeley
up the canyon from the plant. The bridges were constructed jointly by the Water Lepart-
ments of the two Cities, and are jointly maintained.
The substructure of each bridge is very durably constructed and each is presently
in excellent condition. Bridge No. 1 crosses that section of the river between the land
of the Treatment Plant to the island proposed by the Optimist Club as a campsite. Bridge
No. 2 crosses that part of the river on the East side of the island and provides access to
the Seaman Reservoir road.
The design and condition of the two bridges is summarized as follows:
Bridge No. 1
Abutments - Rock and concrete resting on solid rock ---in good condition.
Spans & Total Length--- Three 28, spans -- total length 841 -
Bridge Beams --- 6" x 16" timbers on 3' centers --- in good condition.
Bridge Floor --- 4" finished native -- fair condition.
Width of Bridge --- 10 feet.
Handrails --- 2" x 4"s bolted to structure -- poor condition.
Height above normal flow --- 8 feet.
Bridge No. 2
Abutments - Rocca and concrete resting on solid rock --- in good condition.
Spans & Total Length -- 281 and 427 spans -- total length 701
Bridge beams --- 6" x 16" timbers on 281 span -- good condition, 18" steel I
Beams on 42t span --- good condition.
231
May 6, 1965
Bridge Floor -- 4" finished native - fair to poor condition.
Width of Bridge --- 10 feet.
Handrails --- 2" x 4"s bolted to structure - poor condition.
Height above normal flow --- 8 feet.
Both structures are narrow and intended to accompdate one-way traffic only. The
decking is bad in places, especially on bridge No. 2. Principally due to vandalism, the
handrails on both bridges are broken and in need of repair. Both bridges, however, seem
to be quite sound from a structural standpoint. This view could seem to be substantiated
by the fact that the State and Fish and Game Commission cross the bridges on accasion to
stock the Seaman Reservoir. The truck used, loaded with fish and water, weighs approx-
imately 15 tons.
The work needed to repair the decking which has deteriorated, and to replace the
handrails on both bridges, should cost between $"150.00 and $250.00, for both labor and
materials.
Isl C. Adam Fischer
Director of Public Works.
Mr. Anderson, project Chairman of the Optimist Club, spoke in reference to the
Program that they wish to carry on. After discussion, motion was made by Carson, seconded
by Councilwoman Quinn, that this be accepted subject to the approval of the Park Advisory
Board and referred to the City Attorney to prepare a lease and the City Engineer.advise
Greeley of the cost of repairing the bridge and their share of said.repairs. Roll was cal
ad resulting as follows- Ayes: Councilmen Johnson, Carson, McMillan, Bennett and Council
woman Quinn. Nayes: None. the President declared the motion adopted.

The following report was presented and read at length:
NORTHERN COLORADO WATER CONSERVANCY DISTRICT WATER
RENTAL CHARGE 1965
Suggested rental charge for Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District water owned by
the City is calculated as follows:
Total allotment 8,279 acre-foot units
60% quota 4,967.4 acre-feet
Assessment Costs:
Acre-foot Units
6,000 @ 1.50 9,000.00
2,279 @ 5.00 11,395.00
Our assessment cost $ 20,395.00
Our assessment cost of $20,395.00 divided by the 60 per cent
quota of 4,967.4 acre-feet equals $4.10 plus a handling charge of
25� equals $4.35-
Based on the same calculation as last year. The rental charge last year was $2.80.
The above is the motion on this report.

The following report was presented and read at length:
May 3, 1965
To: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Water Board
Subject: Construction water Policy
At a meeting of the Water Board April 21, 1965, the Water Board reviewed with the
City Manager and Director of Public Works current practice in regard to furnishing water to
contractors and others for construction purposes. The essential points of the current prac-
tice were outlined as follows:
1. Contractors and subdivisions, upon request of the City, have been permitted to
use fire hydrants for construction water at no cost. Upon request, the City
has furnished hose (as much as 400 to 500 feet), connected t he hose to the hy-
drant, and furnished manpower on full Lime basis to operate the hydrant, move
the hose, etc._
2. Other contractors, paving for example, have been permitted to take water from
hydrants into tank trucks and have paid 50 cents per thousand gallons,, The
manpower situation was essentialy the same as in 1 above in that the "ity pro-
vided a man to operate the hydrant and count the loads.
In order to evaluate the current practice, the Director of Public Works reported
that a meter was installed on a hydrant recently in the instance of furnishing water for
construction purposes in a subdivision. Analysis of costs to the City involved indicated
the following:
1. In a period of approximately 36 hours of use there were 126,000 gallons of water
used. Based on the meter rate, that will be effec tive October 1, 1965, the charge for this
water use would, be $24.40.
2. The estimated cost of labor and equipment necessary to provide this service was
$90 labor and $72 equipment rental or a total cost of $162.00.
3. It is therefore relatively obvious that in the instance of the example studied
above, total cost of provid-ng the service was $186.40.
After considerable discussion of the general problem of furnishing water for con-
struction purposes, it was t he recommendation of the Water Board that the following policy
be approved in regard to furnis'hring construction water:
1. That the Director of Public Works be authorized to permit taking of water from
hydrants for construction purposes.
2. That -in those instances where approval is granted, the Director of Public Works
have the City furnish a special hydrant connection including a meter.
3. That those permitted to take water from a hydrant for construction purposes be
billed at least monthly for the water used, using appropriate in -City meter rate
4. That the City discontinue furnishing hose for connection to hydrants in use in
furnishing construction water.
In recommending the above, it should be pointed out that the Water Board considered
the major purposes of fire hydrants is for fire protection and use of hydrants by unauthor-
ized personnel or for purposes other than fire fighting could tend tobe incompatible with
their main function. It was the general feeling however that rather than prohibit use of
hydrants for construction water purposes, it would be desirable to permit it as outlined in
the above recommendation with the City strictly controlling the use of the hydrants in order
to minimize possible damage or interference to the basic purpose of the hydrants.
Respectfully submitted,
/sl Ward H. Fischer
Water Board Chairman
The City Manager discussed the matter of the cost of the water being furnished for
construction purposes. After further discussion by the Council, motion was made by Council-
man McMillan, seconded by Councilman Bennett, that this question be tabled for one week.
Roll was called resulting as follows: Ayes: Councilmen Johnson, Carson, McMillan, Bennett
and Councilwoman Quinn. Nayes: None. The President declared the motion adopted.
The following report was presented and read at length:
May 3, 1965
To: The Honorable Mayor and City.Council
From: Water Board
Subject:Water Treatment Plant Construction
December 10, 1964, the Water Board of the City Of Fort Collins presented a recommend
ation to the City Council, included in which was a recommendation that the City proceed with
immediate construction of a 15 million gallon per day treatment pant located in Soldier
Canyon above the City s existing clear water storage reservoirs and that J. T. Banner &
Associates be retained as engineers and consultants for the design and supervision of the
project.
Subsequent to the 4ater Board recommendation submitted December 10, 1964, it is
our understanding that the City Council proceeded with design of the distribution system
improvements and decided to delay the contract for design and construction of the water
treatment plant until after sale of the proposed $3,200,000 water bonds which we understand
is scheduled for Thursday, May 6, 1965.
The Water Board would therefore respectfully reiterate its recommendation that
a contract be entered into with J. T. Banner & Associates for design and supervision of
construction of the proposed 15 million gallon per day water treatment plant as soon as
possible after the bond sale.
Respectfully submitted,

UNITED NATIONS ASSOCIATION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
Working together for Peace, Freedom and Justice April, 1965
Dear Mayor:
Your community observance of United Nations Day, October 24t1a, can be of special signifi-
canse this year.
Not only is this the 20th Anniversary of the UN, but a Presidential Proclamation has desig-
nated 1.965 as International Cooperation Year - the worldwide theme adopted unanimously
by the'UN's General Assembly. A copy of the Proclamation is enclosed.
President Johnson has appointed a Cabinet -level Committee to coordinante Government efforts
in behalf of this twentieth anniversary theme and a National Citizen's Commission is taking
the lead in promoting participation by the public. In aduition, the Pres dent has called
a White House Conference on International Cooperation to be held towards the end of the year
These actions lend particular emphasis to community UN Day observances. Therefore, we hope
you will join with Government Agencies, with national organizations and institutions and
with leading; citizens in this year's special nation-wide observance.
The President has asked the United Nations Association to promote the public's observance
of United Nations Day, and he has asked me once again to serve as National Chairman for this
event.
You may recall that last Fall I expressed the hope that you would appoint a UN Day Committee
which would continue to function throuthout 1965 as the Community International Cooperation
dear Committee. Many Mayors have done this.
If ,you have not done so, I hope you will begin making plans for the appointment of a UN
Day Committee. President Johnson, will be issuing a Presidential Proclamation of the Day
shortly ondit is usually of a great public relations advantage to be able to announce the
appointment of a UN Day Committee promptly thereafter. If there is a dhapter of UNA-USA in
your community, you will find its members anxious to be of assistance to you in organizing
the committee, and in helping to service your committee once it is established.
Worthwhile activities require the selection of an active Committee comprised of leading citi
izens representing the various professional, educational and civic institutions in our com-
munity. Thus, it is essential for you to appoint your chairman now an that he in turn can
begin to recruit an effective Mayor's committee which can begin to function right after the
President's Proclamation.
The enclosed postcard should be returned to us indicating the name and address of the Chair -
.ran you have appointed. Upon receipt of your card, a special kit of program materials will
be sent to ,your Chairman and we will send you a "Certificate of Merit" to be presented to
your Chairman at an appropriate ceremony. A copy of President Johnson's UN Day Proclamation
will also be enclosed. It will help you in the formulation of your own official Proclamatio
of United Nations Day.
This Twentieth Anniversary observance of the UN and its International Cooperation theme can
provide an excellent opportunity for informed realistic discussion and evaluation of our
international involvements in the world today, both at a private level as well as through
international organizations. Full participation by as many groups as possible in your muni-
cipality will enhance the educational and civic responsibility of your citizenry. We will
look forward to a dynamic contri}ution from your community in this year's special national
observance.
hope to hear from 'You soon:
Sincerely yours,
/s/ Robert S. Benjamin
