"NO PROBLEMS PROBLEMS/CONCERNS AS FOLLOWS: From: Janet Mctague To: Marc Virata Date: 1/9/2006 11:14:01 AM Subject: request to vacate easement at Mason St North Hi Marc, I received the request to vacate the easement at Mason Street North. Based on Brian Shears' letter, it sounds like the window well is already installed and is therefore not conflicting with the electric line. At that point we should only have a cable to feed the streetlights and should not have a problem maintaining that line. We have no objections to the easement being vacated. Thanks for the opportunity to comment. Janet McTague Electric Utility Project Manager Fort Collins Utilities 224-6154 February 6, 2006 Project No: 1558-02-01 City of Fort Collins Engineering P.O. Box 580 Ft. Collins, Colorado 80524 Attn: Marc Virata, P.E. Re: Easement Vacation Request #2 (Utility easement near Building A) Mason Street North; Ft. Collins, Colorado Dear Marc, This is a formal request for the vacation of a portion of the platted eight -foot (8) utility easement along Mason Court near the south section of Building A and near the intersection of Mason Court with Cherry Street. Please note that this portion of the easement is not encumbered by electric utilities. Apparently, no utilities were located or hit at the time of excavation for the south and east portion of building A. The reason for the formal request for vacation of a portion of the eight -foot (8) utility easement is that a concrete basement window well was constructed within the limits of that easement. There is slightly less than two feet (2') of encroachment into the easement. Our intention is to vacate only a portion of the easement that envelops the existing window well. The vacated portion of the easement will be three feet (3') east to west and eight feet (81) north to south. The formal vacation request legal description and exhibit have been prepared by Northern Engineering and is attached with this formal request. Also attached is an 8 1/2 x 11 of the Master Utility Plan prepared by Shear Engineering Corporation to relate the vicinity of Building A to the rest of the Mason Street North project. If you have any questions, or if you require additional information, please call at 226-5334. 11 Shear BWS/mc attachments cc: Jim Leach; Wonderland Hill Development Company Peter and Beverly Clyde; Greystone Industries, Ltd.

Box 580 Ft. Collins, Colorado 80524 Attn: Susan Joy Re: Easement Vacation Request Mason Street North; Ft. Collins, Colorado Previously Lot 12 and Tract A, Martinez P.U.D. Dear Susan, SHEAR This is a request for the vacation of a portion of the platted public access easement along the three garages on the southwest side of the Mason Street North project. The reason for the request for vacation of a portion of the easement is that original sitework design layout for the three garages was coordinated with Wolff Lyons Architects, apparently without consideration of a brick veneer. We now have the final design and placement from Wolff Lyons Architects. The garages are a total of 8" wider, apparently due to the addition of a brick veneer. Therefore, an 8" reduction in the easement is required. This is represented on the enclosed exhibit and legal description. Attached is a copy of the overall plan and a copy of the recorded plat for your immediate reference. If you have any questions, or if you require additional information, please call at 226-5334.

Collins, Colorado 80524 Attn: Marc Virata, P.E. Re: Easement Vacation Request #2 Mason Street North; Ft. Collins, Colorado Dear Marc, This is a request for the vacation of a portion of the platted eight foot (8') utility easement along Mason Court near the south section of Building A and near the intersection of Mason Court with Cherry Street. Refer to attached Master Utility Plan for general location. Also refer to attached copy of final plat for Mason Street North. Please note that this portion of the easement is not encumbered by electric utilities. Apparently, no utilities were located or hit at the time of excavation for the south portion of building A. The reason for the request for vacation of a portion of the eight foot (81) utility easement is that a concrete basement window well was constructed within the limits of that easement. There is slightly less than two feet (2) of encroachment into the easement. Removal of the window well and filling in a foundation wall window opening will result if this vacation request is denied. Our intention is to vacate only a portion of the easement that envelopes the existing window well. The vacated portion of the easement will be approximately three feet (3') east to west and approximately eight feet (8') north to south. A formal exhibit will be provided by a licensed professional land surveyor after an accurate survey has been completed.
