Dear Mr. Robinson:
Enclosed please find a copy of our letter to Mr. Kaplan, Planning Commission
Director for the City of Fort Collins, concerning our recent meeting. Hopefully, !
it meets your needs.
Enclosed also are copies of the legal descriptions Mr. Jackson left at our
office for our review. It is our request that the proposed frontage road along
the north side of the proposed Expressway be ended at Red Cedar Drive as per our
conversation that access to US 287 be via Bristlecone Drive.
Our Right-of-Way Section reviewed the legal descriptions and plat and found
two minor items to be clarified. In the legal description of Parcel F, the
dimension of 275.92 feet on the northeasterly course of the centerline of Conifer
Street is shown as 275.02 feet on the plat. Also, points of beginning should
be marked on the plat. Please revise and re-submit two copies of the corrected
documents for our files.
Other than the above, the documents are acceptable.
Very truly yours,
DWIGHT M. BOWER
DISTRICT ENGINEER

Dear Mr. Kaplan:
This letter is written to inform your office of what was discussed during
a meeting with Messrs. Steve Robinson (Project Manager) , Fritz Jackson (Engineer
for Evergreen Park) , Dwight Bower (District Engineer) , Ralph Finch (District
Design Engineer) , and myself (District Utility Engineer) concerning reservation
of right of way for the Fort Collins Central Expressway through Evergreen Park.
Mr. Jackson left a copy of legal descriptions for parcels to be included
in the above reservation. The Division found them acceptable with only minor
revision needed.
Mr. Robinson requested that we write this letter to clarify the wording
in our letter to you on February 28, 1977. The Division may have overemphasized
that the Expressway was only a proposal . The District has full intentions of
constructing the Expressway through the Evergreen Park area at such time funds
become available. At this time, no precise date can be tied to the above. The
area reserved for highway use is adequate for the presently proposed alignment
and design. Mr. Robinson has assured us that development will not encroach
into this reserved area.
Mr. Bower requested that the proposed frontage road along the north side
of the proposed Expressway not be continued to North College and that it end
by tying into Red Cedar Circle. Traffic would then be circulated through the
existing street system to North College via Bristlecone Drive. Mr. Robinson
had no objections to this proposal .
The District would like to make comment that we would suggest due considera-
tion be given to allowing the developer to exchange zonings: zoning within
the reserved area to be exchanged with a like area outside the strip. Our
reasons are that the District has intentions of constructing the Expressway,
thus capturing this zoning.
Mr. Robinson also stated there was a possibility that this property may
change ownership again. It would be our specific recommendation that some
thought be given as to how the past negotiations were made binding on the
property. This would hopefully eliminate further confusion on the matter.
