Dear Sir:
I received the letter dated January 27, 1994 pertaining to the
plan to build C 1,. Hillcrest P.U.D. on the southerly acreage of
land that lies behind our single family residences in Tenth Green.
I am happy to know that you -plan to reserve the northerly 4.5 acres
for a possible trade to Poudre R-1 for an athletic field.
However, I wish to go on record as a resident whose property will
be impacted by the duplexes if they are built as planned: I was
under the distinct impression that the area in question is subject
to agreements between the Maxwell estate and the City of Fort
Collins which preclude building anything but single family homes
in this former Maxwell Ranch, due to the restrictions put on this
land when it was annexed into the City of Fort Collins. I believe
that you should check on the legality, as I was threatened with a
fine of $1,000 per day if I kept an extra stove in the lower part
of my paid -for -dwelling after April 29, 1992 so I was forced to
comply with a covenant based on the city's prior agreements about
this area.
I will appreciate knowing if it is
about separating some portion of my
to be the scapegoat of a next door
and what I -do with my own home?
legal for me to-do as I wish
home or if I am perhaps going
neighbor's harassment over who
Thanks for your early reply.
Sincerely yours,
-Z 1-2.,

Homeowner here since 1969 at my present location -
I am not opposed to subsidized housing for poor, low income people
but I do not approve of subsidizing middle income renters with public
funds, as everyone in this neighborhood has had to follow the work
ethic without having subsidized housing, at least while 'they pay
for their single family homes and are not allowed to convert to
duplexes to earn extra rental funds to help pay the inflated utility
bills and taxes that we are presently having to pay in the Choic City.
