Dear Mr. Hansen:
I am writing this letter on behalf of Colorado Rocky Mountain School ("CRMS").
CRMS is a private high school located just outside the municipal limits of Carbondale, in
Garfield County, Colorado.
There is an historic Garfield County road right-of-way, previously known as
Garfield County Road 106, that runs through the heart of the CRMS campus. In
December, 1979, the Garfield County Commissioners dosed this road to public vehicular
traffic and removed it from the County primary road system. The County did not,
however, formally vacate the road.
Due to future plans to develop its campus, in the next few weeks CRMS plans to
petition the Board of County Commissioners of Garfield County to vacate that portion
of County Road 106 which has been dosed to the public since 1979. One of the
requirements of such a petition is that the petitioner provide the County with a letter
from any involved utility company stating the company's position on the proposed road
vacation.

Our surveyor indicates that Xcel Energy maintains an existing overhead electric
line within a portion of the roadway proposed to be vacated. I have enclosed an Exhibit
Map which depicts the portion of the road to be vacated along with the existing utility
lines within that corridor.
If the request to vacate the road is approved by Garfield County, CRMS will grant
Xcel Energy a permanent, non-exclusive easement for your existing overhead electric
line. It is therefore our conclusion that the vacation of the road will not adversely affect
your legal rights to maintain the existing overhead electric line.
I would greatly appreciate it if you could send me some form of letter or e-mail
indicating any questions or concerns that your company may have about the proposed
road vacation. I would be happy to discuss this matter with you in more detail if you
have questions.
Thank you very much for your attention to this matter.
Very truly yours,
BALCOMB & GREEN, P.C.
