Raving heard nothing from you after our telephone conversation on December 14th and in light of the fact that the Aoliday Season is behind ua and work is ahead of us, I thought it best to revisit the problem of weed control. Our concern is that everyone will essentially put this matter into a "holding pattern" until late spring or early summer, at which time Rockcastle will suggest [hat the grass is growing nicely and they want their $10,000.00. By that time, hypothetically, the weeds in question will have gone to seed and my client will not be happy. As I understood your comments, no one has any real objection to trying to work out something whereby Cross Mountain Ranch can either do the spraying or contract for the spraying at the appropriite time without having the process delayed due to bureaucratic requirements, bidding, etc. If so, I believe this aspect of our mutual problem needs to be addressed by an appropriate agreement and the monies properly segre- gated for this purpose. This needs to be done no later than mid-April. While we are at it, we need to address the question of reimbursement for last year's spraying. According to Red Cortner, despite the statements made by ACZ about re- imbursement from Routt County, Red has talked to the same people and they indicated that funding is extremely tight in the county and it is problematical as to whether any funds at all will be available for weed control reimbursement.
