<br />IDLEDALE WATER BE SANITATION DISTRICT <br />P.O. Box 171 <br />Idledale. Colorado 80453 <br /> <br />May 23, 1989 <br /> <br />JEFFERSON COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION <br />18301 West 10th Avenue <br />Golden Colorado 80401 <br /> <br />RE: SA89-3, Water Treatment 8uilding at the Corner of <br />East Grapevine and West Grapevine Roads <br /> <br />Dear Commissioners: <br /> <br />We have reviewed the comments from the Public Works Administrative Review <br />team, dated May 12, 1989, on the above referenced case and offer the following <br />in response: <br /> <br />1. The site in question was originally designated as Reservoir No, 3 on the <br />1920 plat of the Starbuck Heights Subdivision. At one time there was a <br />reservoir at this site. At present, we are planning to construct a small <br />building to house water treatment equipment to treat well water to remove <br />the radioactivity in the water, specifically uranium. It is very <br />important that this building and water treatment facilities be constructed <br />as soon as possible. At present, the water supply for the town is <br />dependent on the use of two of the town's four wells which are operating <br />on a temporary basis. The other wells cannot be tied into the system <br />until the facility is constructed. Already, the town is experiencing <br />water shortages. Also, one of the wells being used contains high levels <br />of uranium. . <br /> <br />, <br />2. The dedicated right-of-way for East Grapevine Road was originally 20 feet <br />when the plat was filed in 1920, and no changes have occurred since that <br />time. The area along East Grapevine Road has been built up for many years <br />and the existing road between houses is very narrow in most places. We <br />believe that the request for 30 feet from the road centerline is excessive <br />as compared with the existing road configuration and we request a waiver <br />of this requirement. All other comments can be accommodated. <br /> <br />Finally, we would very much appreciate a speedy approval of the site plan and <br />requested waivers so we can obtain the necessary building permit and complete <br />construction of the facility. <br /> <br />Thank you very much. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />IDLEDALE WATER AND SANITATION DISTRICT <br /> <br />~~ dl"1~ .fiv' <br /> <br />Barbara Wyatt, President <br />
