Re: Street improvement schedule for Buckingham Street
Dear Sheri;
As we discussed at the meeting on June 25'h I have put together a schedule for the improvements on
Buckingham St. on the south side of the brewery property. The improvements would start where the
sidewalk ends adjacent to First Street and continue based on the schedule below. We propose the following
schedule:
1) The first 500-foot section starting at the end of the current sidewalk adjacent to first street to a point
approximately 500' east. This would be completed with the Process Water Treatment Plant project
approximately 1/2002.
2) The next 500-foot section progressing eastward would be completed 2 years later. Approximately
1 /2004.
3) The final 500-foot section would be completed 2 years later. Approximately 1/2006.
The improvements included in this proposal wo Id be the same as those shown on the h°,Cizontal street detail 1 ��

New Belgium Brewing Co. Inc. is committed to being a responsible corporate citizen and we understand the
need for participating in projects such as this. We are a growing business and as such we are investing all of
our free capital into our facility, which increases the tax base and creates jobs for the community. We
appreciate your help in working with us to create a time schedule that will allow us to complete these
improvements without constraining us to a point where we need to slow our expansion and possibly lose
market share. As you know we are already committed to installing a state of the art process water treatment
facility to lessen our impact on the city utilities. The timeframe that I have laid out above will allow us to
complete the street improvements that Buckingham street needs while at the same time we will be able to
expand rapidly enough to maintain our markets. I appreciate your willingness to work with us on this.
Si erely,
Fred Porter
Environmental Engineer
