<br />ou 1136 <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />IV. BOULDER INCLUSION <br /> <br />The Boulder inclusion into the District had its inception <br />in 19J1. We cooperated in the drafting and passage of a 19J1 <br />legislative amendment Water Conservancy Act to enable Boulder <br />to avail itself of joining the District. It made a thick file <br />in 19J3. Petitions were drawn for the inclusion proposed., <br />Boulder organizations circulated tnem, and got a requisite <br /> <br />number of landowners to sign for inclusion. Prerequisite to <br /> <br />a court hearing thereon was that verified consent of the Board <br /> <br /> <br />of Directors of the District shall be filed with the Court <br /> <br />setting forth the terms and conditions upon which the area <br /> <br /> <br />shall be included, which terms may include the price per <br /> <br /> <br />acre foot of ~ater to be allotted for use within the included <br /> <br />area. <br /> <br />Negotiations between officers and attorneys and the <br />Boards of the District and of Boulder to settle upon terms were <br />nearing mutual acceptability at the end of 19J2. On January <br />10, 19J3, the District Board adopted a general resolution of <br /> <br />tentative terms and conditions for such inclusion. Con- <br /> <br />ferences to settle area, elements and legal agenda followed <br />until the Boulder petitions to the Weld County District <br />Court were ready to file. The petitions of 750 taxpayers <br />were filed on July 1, 19J3. Judge Coffin set August 31, <br />19J3, as the hearing date. Various necessary authorizing <br /> <br />acts of the two bodies in resolutions, ordinances, notices, <br />petitions, agreements for back taxes amounts to be paid, <br />allotment amount rate, and petitions, construction of a <br />TWinlake Reservoir, place of water measurement were drafted <br />and adopted. <br />The extended complete contract embraCing these terms <br /> <br />and conditions, and the contingencies upon which they would <br />depend and become effective, were drawn up. It was signed <br /> <br />-28- <br /> <br />--- <br />.--- <br /> <br />" <br />
