Box 1009 Glenwood Springs, CO 81602 Re: Amended acreage proposal - Eagle County/BLM Land Transfer. Dear Mr. Mottice: .00� JOHNNETTE PHILLIPS JAMES E. JOHNSON, JR. TOM C. STONE Please find attached an amended acreage proposal for purchase of BLM lands by Eagle County. This proposal reduces the purchase area to 730 acres from the approximate 1,341 acres originally requested. The reduction is due to exclusion of several parcels as cultural resource site mitigation and threatened & endangered plant mitigation; the exclusion of several parcels along the western boundary of the original proposed purchase area due to unsuitability for future landfill development; and, exclusion of 25 acres which the Eagle River Water & Sanitation District has proposed for purchase under a separate patent. Thank you. Sincerely, Johnnette Phillips, Chairman Eagle Board of County Commissioners encl cc: J. Fritze, Eagle County Attorney B. Higgins, Eagle County Road & Bridge Director A.
