This volume of water includes 5.2 cubic feet per second originating from the northeast corner of College Avenue and Boardwalk Drive. Please advise us if you have any questions or comments.

College Avenue since the development and construction of Fountainhead P.U.D. Phase III. Fountainhead Phase III was built at an elevation several feet higher than the adjoining property to the south and its roof drainage is not being channeled away properly, instead causing a flooding problem for the dwellers next door. The drainage system in place now is in substantial disrepair and simply does not work, nor did it ever really work very well. I am writing on behalf of the residents of 4040 S. College to inform you of this problem and to offer a suggestion about how it might be resolved quite easily and inexpensively. My recommendation is that a 6-inch perforated PVC (plastic) pipe be connected to the roof drains and laid horizontally with sufficient slope to drain it west to College Avenue. Some berming along the south property line and 3/4" rock bedding and cover for the PVC pipe would provide a relatively maintenance free and effective drainage system, I believe. I'd be happy to meet with someone on -site to review this problem and to discuss possible solutions. Please feel free to call me any time to arrange a meeting. S`nc'erely, Michael H.

Box 580 Fort Collins, Colorado 80522 (303) 221-6605 CITY OF FORT COLLINS September 18, 1986 Boardwalk and College II, Ltd. Attn: Mr. Bob Pennock 155 East Boardwalk, Suite 200 Fort Collins, Colorado 80525 Dear Mr. Pennock: Approximately five weeks ago, I sent a letter to your firm soliciting your cooperation in resolving a drainage problem caused by the development of Fountainhead PUD, Phase III. (See attached letter dated August 12, 1986.) Since I've not yet been contacted by anyone from your firm, I feel compelled to repeat my request, and to make it known to you that you may be at substantial risk legally. Colorado drainage law basically holds that an upstream landowner cannot discharge water upon his downstream neighbor "in a manner or quantity to do more harm than formerly" (Docheff vs. Broomfield, 623 P2d 69, 1980). In my opinion, there is no question that the runoff has been increased substantially and is now causing more harm to the downstream property at 4040 South College Avenue. Now that you have been "put on notice" that this problem exists, prudency would seem to dictate that you attempt to resolve the problem before serious flood damage occurs and a lawsuit is filed. As I suggested in my August 12 letter, I believe a relatively simple and inexpensive plastic pipe installation and some minor berming would solve this problem. Again, I'll offer to meet on -site if it will help expedite a solution. Please call me if you think my presence is needed.

Collins, Co 80521 Re: Sports Caster's Vacation JUSTIFICATION STATEMENT Sports Caster Bar and Grill, formerly Cables End Restaurant, is located in the Fountainhead P.U.D., Phase Three. When the P.U.D, was processed, a blanket easement was placed on all common areas outside the building envelopes. When Cables End Restaurant was permitted, a vacation was granted for the building envelope. However, this vacation did not include the outside dining area (courtyard). Sports Caster is proposing to cover this courtyard with a metal roof. This requires a building permit, and in order to obtain a permit, this area must also be vacated from the blanket easement. Because this courtyard is existing, with an existing courtyard wall around it, we hope that a vacation will be granted for the roof structure. If you have any questions or require any additional information regarding this matter, please contact meat 663-0548. Thank you for your eonsideration. Sincerely, Roger A.
