In Gunnison it was much more <br />complicated. In Longmont and Silverthorne, it was tied specifically to the 90% <br />amount as in the current proposed legislation. <br />• The retained jurisdiction provision seems appropriate. <br />• If the Board is going to focus only on three specific areas where everyone agrees <br />that they have expertise, it may be appropriate to increase the weight that a water <br />court gives to those specific findings and recommendations. <br />Thank you, I am available for questions. <br />
