P.O. Box 580

Mrs. Keeton,
I have received your request for a proposed utility easement related to the City's South
Transit Center project, located on the south property line of Spradley Barr LLC., at 4809
South College Avenue. Please let this letter serve as Spradley Barr's interest in further
discussing the possibility of granting a 25' utility easement as shall be further described
at some future date, to the Fort Collins Loveland Water District for installation of a water
line.
Understand that this letter is not intended nor should be interpreted as intending to be an
agreement to grant said easement. No easement shall be granted until such time the
parties mutually agree to teens and conditions of an easement and a formal fully
negotiated agreement has been executed by both parties.
Furthermore, in the event Spradley Barr LLC. finds it necessary to obtain legal counsel
for the purpose of garnering legal advice in regards to said easement, Spradley Barr will
require the City of Fort Collins or the Fort Collins Loveland Water District to agree in
writing to pay for Spradeey Barr's legal services related to this matter.
Kriss Spradley, President
Spradley Barr, LLC

Do you think the week of August 30 is too soon? That would give you another week to get the letters. Or I
can try for the next two weeks (Sept 6-8 or 13-15) Any preferences?

** Confidential **
Thanks, Emma. I don't like letters of intent in the first place. They are pretty well meaningless. I like
deeds of easement. However, this "letter of intent" takes the prize. What it really is ... is a letter of lack of
intent. I don't think you should consider it to be a bonafide letter of intent, and, as I said before, even
those bonafide letters don't count for much.
>>> Emma McArdle 8/11/2010 4:36 PM >>>
Paul,
See Sheri's response. Also, Ted did not think the letter would work, but I wanted your "legal" opinion,
primarily because this is a City project and I want to make sure everything is on the up and up.
Thanks!
Emma

I don't believe that a statement regarding letters of intent is in the code anywhere.
The requirement has been a part of the submittal requirements.
httl)://www.fcgov.com/currentplanning/pdf/submittal reg pdp 3.3.10.pdf Seepage 9.
Which an applicant is required to submit unless waived per 2.4.2(C) of the Land Use Code.
Hope this helps.

Sheri,
Andrew, Marc and I couldn't find a code section requiring this, only the submittal requirements for PDP
requiring a letter of intent prior to hearing... Do you know if this is a requirement by code and where it is
stated?

Paul,
I have doubts that the attached letter of intent will suffice in meeting the City's requirement for a letter of
intent prior to hearing. This is for the City's South Transit Center Project, it needs an easement on
Spradley Barr's property for a water line connection, per a requirement by Fort Collins/Loveland Water
District.
Will you please make a determination if this will work.
Thanks,
Emma
