Subject: Electric Space Heating in The Grove At Fort Collins PDP
Hi Mr. Olt and Mr. Martine,
My name is Heather Stickler. I am a neighbor near the proposed development known as The Grove
at Fort Collins. I have been reading about the current proposed development and notice that there is a
note from the January 4th, 2011 Staff Review notes which was not shown in the recent Staff Review
notes from April 22, 2011. It seems this issue was resolved but I cannot tell how. Is it that in fact no
form of electric space heating is being used at The Grove? So I assume all gas heat then?
Thanks in advance for your reply,
Heather Stickler

[12/15/10] With a few minor adjustments, the electric facilities
shown on the utility plan are acceptable providing that no form of
electric space heating is used.

Hi Doug,
Does that mean the "electric facilities shown on the plan" are *not* acceptable since electric space
heating is being used? Just trying to reconcile your note from January to the plan which is being
proposed.
Thank you!
Heather

Heather,
The last direction that I received from the developer is that they are NOT going to use electric space heating.
As I suspect you know, the plan has not been finalized so I suppose the choice of how to heat the units could
change. I doubt that it will change, as it would require a substantial redesign of the electric utility plan, which in
turn could impact other parts of the development. Also, if they do use electric heat, the Light & Power charges
to the developer for installation of electric facilities would increase substantially.
Thanks for your inquiry. Please let me know if you have any further questions relative to the electric utility
system. Please note that I will be out of the office beginning on May 11 th through May 23ro.

Thank you Doug. I mis-read your initial message, which clearly stated no electric space heating will be
used. Does this mean gas heating then? Or am I misunderstanding what "electric space heating'
encompasses?
Thanks again,
Heather

Heather,
As far as I know, electric space heating will NOT be used. The electric facilities shown on the latest overall
utility plan that I have (dated 12/08/10) is based on a design I prepared, and assumes no electric heat. This is
consistent with all conversations I have had in recent times. I have not prepared an electric utility design for
use of electric heat, but I know it will need to change substantially from that on the utility plan if any form of
electric space heating is used.
