CO 80701 <br /> <br />Re: Log Lane Village <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Gumina: <br /> <br />As a follow up to my letter of November 17. 1988. I have <br />received further clarification of the alternatives for Log Lane <br />Village from Mr. George Ruchti of Rocky Mountain Consultants. <br />Subsequent to this we discussed with Mr. Ruchti and Mr. Ken <br />Mangelson of Rocky Mountain Consultants. the problems <br />associated with providing Log Lane Village with improved water <br />quali ty. <br /> <br />The data furnished by Rocky Mountain Consultants on their <br />transmittal of December 8. indicates that it would reguire an <br />initial investment of $410.000, and a monthly fee of $32.35 to <br />connect to Morgan County Quality Water District (MCQWD), The <br />village would be limited to 150 acre ft. of water per year and <br />no provisions would be made for fire protections. Water <br />gua1ity would be excellent. supply would be guaranteed for 29 <br />years. The contract for the price of water would be <br />renegotiated every five years. The 150 acre ft. per year would <br />support a population of approximately 700 at average U.S. per <br />capita consumption rates. Installation of meters would in our <br />experience conserve enough water to enable the 150 acre ft. to <br />serve in the neighborhood of 1200 people. <br /> <br />The above alternative in effect would provide for the <br />Village for the next 29 years with the exception of fire <br />protection. <br /> <br />The rehabilitated project (the new well - new tanks - <br />sanitization of present distribution system. upgrading of <br />valves). would cost $254.000 and 13.25/mo. in service charges. <br />This solution does not guarantee that the "iron bacteria" will <br />be solved and the high content of total disolved solids will <br />remain. The system is expandable for future needs and control <br />of the system remains with the town. <br /> <br />9134E <br />
