Ill lllllllllllllllll <br />X01 P <br />~~~~~~ <br />~+1AY 31989 <br />FAIR~FD LAND <br />~crL APA.A?!ON DIVISION <br />I urge you to deny the Castle Concrete application to increase mining at <br />their Snyder Quarry near Colorado Springs. I feel the quary is too large <br />now and steps should be taken to phase-out operations there. The <br />phase-out, of course, would call for replanting trees. <br />Having just moved here, I noticed the quary right away. I can see it from <br />just about anywhere in the area. I know it is easy for residents to get <br />use to seeing it, and after awhile - ignore it. But to some one visiting, <br />the quary really catches their attention. It's kind of like the small <br />towns up in the mountains in Colorado, who try to attract tourist dollars <br />not realizing that fifty percent of the houses and farms in their area <br />have junk cars laying around, etc. which they don't even notice because <br />they live there and don't "see" the blight anymore. Then these people <br />wonder why no one wants to stop in their town and spend some money, or <br />consider moving and working there. The same thing applies to the bigger <br />town of Colorado Springs. <br />Anyway, I know your not in <br />but this quary is in a bad <br />out quary operations there <br />material has been removed, <br />something useful besides an <br />around. <br />Sincerely, <br />/~~ <br />Mark Kostelic <br />the business of attracting folks to Colorado, <br />location visually. Please take steps to phase <br />and look for other places which, after the <br />could be turned into a park, lake, landfill, or <br />eye-sore right in the middle of the best view <br />
