to the City. Since last fall, the Developer has spent a great deal of time and money finalizing plans
for Registry Ridge. I trust that this explanation will allow the project to proceed to the Planning and
Zoning Board in an orderly fashion after its revised plans have been submitted to the City and
reviewed by City staff. Please let me know right away if this is not the case.

RE: Registry Ridge Third Filing
ARTHUR E. MARCH
1908-1981
Our firm represents Dalco Land, LLC, the owner of Registry Ridge 3 d Filing ("Registry
Ridge"). This letter is in response to your earlier letter scheduling Registry Ridge for Planning and
Zoning Board consideration in May due to its apparent inactivity in the City planning process.
On behalf of the owner of this project, I am requesting that this matter not be placed on the
May Planning and Zoning Board agenda. Although the project consultants have not filed revised
plans since the last set of City comments were sent last fall, it is not because the plan is inactive, but
rather due to a significant amount of time and effort required to analyze and solve a very difficult
sanitary sewer issue, without which plans cannot be revised and submitted to the City.
Northern Engineering has been diligently working with the South Fort Collins Sanitation
District ("District") to finalize the design and obtain off -site easements for a sanitary sewer outfall.
The design for this outfall, including all necessary engineering and surveying, has now been
completed in a manner which the developer believes will be satisfactory to the District. However,
the District will not review the final design until the two required off -site easements are executed.
One of these has been fully executed and the other, which has been verbally agreed upon, has been
signed by the developer and sent to the attorney for the off -site owner.
In the past months while awaiting resolution of the sewer issue, Northern Engineering has
been in discussions with City engineering and stormwater staff about various City aspects of this
project. In the opinion of Northern Engineering, the City issues in connection with this project have
generally been resolved and City red -line comments have been addressed. It just did not make sense
to file final plan revisions without the sanitary sewer design being approved by the District.
The Developer believes that the final submission to the District will occur in the very near
future. As soon as District approval is received, the intent is to immediately submit revised plans

Dear Lucia:
May 12, 1998
On March 20, 1998 you were sent a letter requesting documentation that you
were actively pursuing the Registry Ridge Third filing PUD. I have reviewed
your response with other development review staff and determined that there has
been sufficient activity related to this project to avoid taking this project to the
Planning and Zoning Board. This project will be permitted to continue processing
under the Land Development Guidance System until an additional reassessment
is done later this year.
Should you have any questions regarding this process, please contact me at
(970)221-6750.
Sincerely,
Robert E. Blanchard
