<br /> <br />James Keener, 788 W. Lois Court. Mr. Keener would like to see this done right. It is time to <br />take the opportunity to upgrade the power lines and upgrade the community by burying the power <br />line underground. He would like to see Public Service Company invest in this community. <br /> <br />Stephanie Westdyke, 764 West Lois Court. Ms. Westdyke asked if Public Service would be <br />willing to disclose a cost analysis of replacing the lines per their proposal versus burying the lines. <br /> If the cost were amortized over 25 years of the life of the poles she would guess it would be a <br />negligible amount and one that would be worthy of the investment. Ms. Westdyke would like to <br />know for sure whether the lines will be louder or not. She is not sure why Louisville as a <br />community is being asked to carry the burden for Broomfield receiving better service. <br /> <br />Commissioner Lipton stated that he would also like to see included the difference in maintenance <br />cost, if there is any, over the lifecycle of the two different alternatives. <br /> <br />Bill Daniel, 1137 Harper Lake Drive. Mr. Daniel wondered why there hasn’t been more talk <br />about re-routing these lines above ground in another location. There are single tower lines that <br />run through the open space on the West Side of McCaslin. Those lines continue south from <br />Highway 36 and if possible he would like to see if there is a possibility of using those existing <br />towers, or if necessary putting in new towers along that same route and then turning southeast <br />along Highway 36. He would like to see something in future meetings that address this re-routing <br />issue. <br /> <br />Dave Berman, 801 West Mulberry Street. Mr. Berman stated that he had read that Public Service <br />had set aside funds on an annual basis that would be refunded back to municipalities specifically <br />for under grounding lines. He wondered if that has been investigated and if that fund even exists <br />and what is available for this project. <br /> <br />Rob Dando, 739 West Linden. Mr. Dando asked if this is indeed going to service Interlocken if <br />there is any way to get them to participate in burying the power lines. Mr. Dando asked what the <br />total capacity of the line going to be? After these are put in Louisville does not have any control <br />of what they do or how much current they put through that line. <br /> <br />Gordon Massy, lives at 742 West Spruce Court and just purchased 781 West Birch Court which <br />backs right on to the power line. Mr. Massy is also a real estate broker, and he has had a listing <br />th <br />of a home, which backed to the power line at 75 and Jay Road and could not sell it. After the <br />house was dropped $20,000 it did sell. Most people did not want to go into the house because of <br />the power lines. Property values that are being destroyed along this corridor are probably going <br />to be 9 or 10 million dollars worth if you add it all up together. He feels that Louisville is paying <br />a great deal for Interlocken’s benefit. <br /> <br />Tim Hoar, 762 West Willow. Mr. Hoar would like to know what the difference is between what <br />th <br />the proposed scenario is going to be versus the ones at 75 and Jay Road. He has been out by the <br /> <br /> 8 <br /> <br />
