Bid Proposal by HARRY E. SAUER, also known as
SAUER DRYLAND
Currently, we are farming Long View Open Space, Coyote Ridge Natural
Area, and Prairie Ridge Natural Area and we are presenting this proposal in
the hopes of continuing to farm these 3 parcels. Our permanent farm
headquarters are located 1 /4 mile south of Prairie Ridge Natural Area and
we have been established at this location since 1961. Since that time, we
have been the caretakers of this land and have overseen, viewed and
protected same, each and everyday. Currently, we place approximately 1/2
of the farmable acreage in crop each year and will continue to follow this
practice. We will pay for and manage the control of the noxious weeds on
all three properties. We have conservation plans on all 3 properties with
the Big Thompson Soil Conservation District and plan on continuing to
abide by these plans. We will pay for all costs associated with crop
production. We have been working cooperatively with the City of Fort
Collins, Larimer County, and the City of Loveland since 2000 on these 3
properties and we are looking forward to continuing this relationship, if our
bid is selected.
We only access the leased premises to perform the necessary operations
needed for crop production. We do not hunt nor do we allow any hunting
on these properties. At present, we own property in Larimer County and
reside in Loveland and we have the necessary insurance policies that are
required.
We are entering a bid of $20.00 per acre for the acreage planted into
crop in the fall of 2013.
