<br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Mr. Statleton: What is the flexibility in the plans for any additional <br />growth n the community? <br /> <br />Mr. Carlin: We have taken in the area that is covered by the water <br />district. That is, the water district that we represent. It covers <br />nearly all of the houses within the original townsite of Allenspark and <br />within the area surrounding. Now, there are a number of vacant lots <br />in Allenspark that I think if they had water could be built on. Right <br />now they can't because Boulder county won't let them. But there is some <br />potential for growth there. Then we have some areas surrounding the <br />town within a quarter of a mile some of them, some of them within two <br />or three miles, that are pretty well inhabited. If we got this ~hing <br />going and they voted to join our district, we could enlarge. There is <br />some potential for growth, yes, sir. <br /> <br />Mr. S\,arks: We have provided for a potential for growth of about 45 <br />taps 1n this plan. <br /> <br />Mr. Stapleton: Do we consider at all bui~ding restrictions and this <br />sort of thing, or is "this' beyond our province? <br /> <br />Mr. Sparks: No. We look at the area to see how any growth would conform <br />to the master planning within the county. In most cases, we actually <br />submit these project plans to the county authorities and request any <br />comment that they wish to make upon the contemplated growth. Nick, <br />did we hear anything from Boulder county on this? <br /> <br />Mr. Carlin: I can <br />of Boulder County. <br />County. We have a <br />Agency and we have <br />Boulder county. <br /> <br />Mr. Sparks: As I recall, we went through all of those steps. These <br />are tne steps that we try to go through in every project. We don't <br />approve any project in any county until the county planning commission <br />has been advised. We send copies of the feasibility report to the <br />county planning commission or city planning commission, as the case <br />may be. <br /> <br />answer that. We heard from the Planning Commission <br />We heard from the Health Department of Boulder <br />recommendation from the Environmental Protection <br />a recommendation from the county commissioners of <br /> <br />Mr. Carlin: Well, ours of course, is the county planning commission <br />because we have no town. <br /> <br />Mr. Sparks: You will note here that we have two alternate plans for <br />Allenspark. One is based upon a federal grant. We have a tentative <br />commitment for a federal grant. But we have requested funding based <br />upon that not being available. We think it will be available. Con- <br />struction costs have just been going up almost ten percent a year. We <br />have added a contingency factor in the $200,000 figure that we rec- <br />ommended. If we go on the plan that we hope that we can with the <br />federal grant, then the actual state money will probably not exceed <br />$75,000. <br /> <br />Mr. Carlin: If I may say something. Of course, that is the plan that <br /> <br />-30- <br />
