GILBERT June 16, 1970 Hon Ed Anderson, Mayor City of Wheatridge Wheatridge, Colorado RE Wheatridge Knolls Subdivision Plat Dear Mayor Anderson Please be advised that I have been retained by Mr Mike Leprino the owner of the property which is the sub- ject matter of a plat known as Wheatridge Knolls, which plat is pending before the City of Council of the City of Wheatridge for possible approval You are familiar with the problem which has arisen in regard to this matter, having to do with the proper drainage provisions of the plat After I was retained by Mr Leprino I had a brief discussion with the Engineer for the City of Wheatridge, Mr Clyde Hobbs, and we both felt that it would be in the interest of all concerned that he and I get together and discuss the possibilities of proper drainage into Kipling Street Since the State Highway Department has written a letter to the City indicating that it would not permit such drainage into Kipling Street, it is necessary for us to discuss this matter seriously with that Department, because even the solution suggested by the City of Wheatridge would provide that the water eventually returned to Kipling Street and be drained down that street Since the heavy rains of last week have kept Mr Hobbs so busy that he has been unable to find the time to discuss this matter with me further, I would respectfully request that the City Council table final consideration of this plat ~~?hc c:;j when it comes up for hearing at the meeting of the City Council tonight, June 16th, 1970, for a period of two weeks or a month, by which time I am hopeful that Mr Hobbs and I can present a workable proper plan for drainage that will be satisfactory to Mr Leprino and to the City of Wheatridge Your kind consideration in this matter is greatly appreciated Yours truly, HDL jr " b#/;1!!~~ HAROLD D LUTZ /" / (..~ ,..... //r; ., LOUI E F- TI-r."""H::-.;.
