Parso City Engineer TIME CENTER OF THE WORLD WYATT, WILLIAMS, WILLIAMSON AND McCABE ATTORNEYS AT LAW BILL WYATT 222 WEST MAGNOLIA STREET DAVE WILLIAMS BOB WILLIAMSON FORT COLLINS, COLORADO 8OS21 HARRY L. McCABE February 28, 1980 Mr. Maurie Ruppel City Engineering Office City of Fort Collins 300 LaPorte Avenue Fort Col Tins, Colorado 80521 Dear Maurie: TELEPHONE AREA CODE 303 484-1112 This will confirm the discussion we had at our meeting on February 26, 1980. I am pleased to advise that the eight foot wide concrete drainage pan and four foot wide concrete trickle channel for the detention pond in Eastborough Subdivision have been installed. Flatiron Paving will accomplish the remaining earth work on the detention pond as soon as weather conditions allow. I would request that the amount being held by the City for the drainage pan and trickle pan, being $3,066.00, be authorized for release so the contractor can be paid. It is my understanding that the current progress on completion of the detention facility along with the money still held by the City to ensure the remaining work ensure the continued issuance of building and occupancy permits in the subdivision. If you would like verification from Flatiron concerning the performance of the remaining earth work, I would be happy to provide such. Upon Flatiron's completion of the earth work, I will have the small amount of required sidewalk installed and have the detention area seeded. Thank you for your courtesies and cooperation in this matter. Very truly yours, HARRY 'L. I',cCABE HLMcC:ih [. �.,:.,_.�•�� 3 Ph 3048-4220 Ext. 728 CIIY 0If F(�RI COEI_IN`S P.O. Box 580 Fort Collins Colorado 8�522 � _ 4_ — ENGINEERING DIVISION June 4, 1982 Mr. Harry McCabe 1508 Buckeye Fort Collins, Colorado 80524 Dear Mr. McCabe: The following is in regard to the detention facility in the Eastborough development. The City has received numerous complaints from citizens in the neighborhood about the state the pond is in. These neighbors are complaining about the weeds, the stagnant water, and mosquitoes in and around the pond. Several of these people live next to the pond itself. Late last fall, Dave Stringer and myself met with you and discussed the pond's completion, its repair, and the issuance of a building permit for lot 135 at 2818 Fauborough Court. At that time you assured us you would have the pond completed in the near future. Previous to that time, in correspondence dated February 28, 1980 to Mr. Maurice Rupel, you again stated the pond would be completed by Flatiron Paving Company as soon as weather permitting. To date, no progress toward the completion of the pond has been made. As you aria aware, the City has acted in good faith on this matter. This is reflected by the facts that: (1) According to the subdivision agreement, the detention pond should have been completed by July 1, 1978; (2) The City has issued 119 building permits and 118 certificates of occupancy for the subdivision; and (3) Last year the City cleaned debris from the concrete trickle pan. Effective immediately, no additional or new building permits or certifi- cates of occupancy will be issued until the matter is resolved. Also, in accordance with Chapter 79, "Nuisances", of the City Code, if in thirty (30) days after receipt of this correspondence no progress is made in C ti,, Mr. Harry McCabe June 4, 1982 Page Two correcting the matter, the City may proceed in correcting the matter and bill you upon completion. If you have any questions or comments on the above, please feel free to contact me. Sincerely, Robert W. Smith Assistant City Engineer - Storm Drainage cc: Maurice Rupel W. Paul Eckman Building Inspection David Stringer CITY OF FORT COLLINS MEMORANDUM DATE: August 15, 1983 TO: Gwyn Strand, Utility Billing FROM: Bob Smith, Storm Drainage. RE: Special Weed Assessment - Tract "A" Eastborough Subdivision In July of 1977 the Eastborough Subdivision was approved for development. A part of the approval process was the stipulation that a detention pond be constructed in Tract A of that subdivision. Inadvertently when the plat was recorded for the subdivision Tract A was not dedicated to the City. In 1982 thru the weed or sanitation program, the weeds were mowed by a private contractor. This mowing resulted in a special weed assessment on the parcel in the amount of approximately $426.00. Since the tract should have been recorded as public property, with this correspondence I am requesting the special weed assessment be removed from this parcel. If you have any questions on the above, please do not hesitate to call. cc: W.

Paul Eckman, Assistant City Attorney Dear Mr. Eckman: Concerning Tract -A, Eastborough Sub, and agreement reached at the meet- ing with Larimer County and Fort Collins City government officials, the following _information is presented for your review and comment. The Larimer County Assessor has started abatement process for the years 1978 through 19.92, inclusive. However; the Larimer County Treasurer cannot concur because of the need to satisfy tax sale certificate holders that are involved. in the normal process of redemption, the tax payer must reimburse the money that has been paid by the certificate holder, along with any accrued interest and fees. These certificate holders must have their investment returned to them before the abatement process can be finalized. The total amount of interest and fees due to the certificate holders is $298.13. This total has been arrived at by compiling the following figures: 1978 Interest - $55.31 Advertising Fees - $26.91 1979 Interest - 39.89 Title Search - 35.00 1980 Interest - 69.19 Certified Letters 24.80 1981 Interest - 37.03 Recording Fees - 6.00 Treasurer's Fees - 4.00 $201.42 $96.71 + 96.71 TOTAL $298.13 In the normal process, the City of Fort Collins should pay the interest and fees that are due to the certificate holders. When this situation has been resolved, abatement procedures should be completed. I am at your disposal for any discussion concerning this matter. Sincerely, Au u 14CHARLES L.

Smith Post office sox 580 Fort Collins, Colorado 80521 November 17, 1977 Guy McCabe Dear Guy, On the 16th of November, 1977, we attempted for the second time to make a final inspection of the sanitary sewer mains in your Eastborough Subdivision. It was immediately apparent that the infiltration of goundwater into the lower portions of this sewer was far above the acceptable limits as stated in our Sanitary Sewer specifications. We are currently using our weir to determine the amounts of infiltration in these sections for our records, but we will be unable to make further inspec- tions of the main or issue acceptance notification to the Water and Sewer Department until this leakage has been stopped or lowered within acceptable limits.

PO Box 229 Boulder, Colorado 80306 Dear Sirs: A recent inspection of the sanitary sewer main in the East - borough Subdivision indicates a major infiltration problem in the area of the intersection of Eindborough and Oxborough. Specifically the pipeline from Manhole No. 21 into Manhole No. 26 is flowing almost half full of groundwater. This main was installed by your company and currently is within the one-year guarantee period. Please take steps to make any and all repairs necessary to the Eastborough Subdivision sewer mains at your earliest convenience. If you will contact this office our inspectors will help you in whatever way possible. Any delay in making necessary repairs could jeopardize the issuance of build- ing permits in the area. Sincerely, Bob Zakely Chief Construction Inspector BZ:cs cc: Harry McCabe September 26, 1978 Harry McCabe 222 W. Magnolia Fort Collins, CO 80521 Dear Harry: Although work has been progressing on the remaining public improvements for your Eastborough Subdivision, the detention system is not yet completed and manholes and valve boxes have not been raised to grade through the pavement. Because these two items are of vital importance and because you were notified that they needed to be completed some weeks ago, I do not feel the City can issue any further certificates of occupancy in the area until the work is finished.

As I indicated, there are several items associated with public health and safety which can not be included in an escrow account. These are: (1) raising all valve -boxes and manholes within the subdivision, and (2) providing a temporary swale through the easement between the catch basin on Lemay and Eastborough Drive in order to relieve the ponding on Lemay. No additional building permits or certificates of occupancy will be issued for structures within this subdivision prior to the completion of these :improvements. The remaining earthwork on the detention pond, the concrete trickle channel and walks, and the permanent drainage facility between Lemay and Eastborough Drive are the improvements included in the escrow account. I have received your request for the oversizing repayments on Centennial and Len -ay including the applicable bills. Once I have completed a review of these requests, I will initiate a purchase order through the Finance DepartTent for the appropriate amount withholding an amount equal to 150 percent of the estimated cost of the remaining improvements. These funds will be released upon completion of the improvements subject to the approval of the City Engineer. Finally, the detention facilities will be monitored through the coming year in order to evaluate the groundwater conditions. It is our under- standing that if some additional work is required to alleviate such groundwater problems, that �,x)rk will be undertaken at your expense upon request by the City Engineer.
