JeffEchert, 5350 Manhattan Circle, Suite 104, Boulder, Colorado 80303, President of Coast to Coast Development Corporation, felt they were a victim of an action taken against Vic Caranci by City Council on August 2. They had purchased a lot from Mr. Caranci on June 3, with the Deed being recorded on June 10. They had been told by city staff that there would be no problem in issuing a building permit. They had asked directly if the city's conflicts with Mr. Caranci, growth allocation, or city services should prevent them from getting a building permit. They were told "No, those issues are not a concern to issuance of a building permit." Staff had told Echert that the city did a search prior to placing liens on the lots and that only lots that Mr. Caranci held title to were affected by that action, but the title information used in the process was outdated. They asked Council to direct staff to remove the lien on their lot, Block 1, Lot 13 (2015 Eisenhower). He felt this lien was an honest oversight by the City of Louisville. He explained that there were other lots that were not liened or notified that are not owned by Mr. Caranci. He didn't feel it was the city's intent to lien lots other than Mr. Caranci's. Davidson asked Mr. Echert to send him a letter detailing this information and it would be put on the Council's Agenda for the next meeting. Susan Griffiths, City Attorney, had received a letter from his partner Bill Echert, which she offered to submit to the Mayor for him. Richard Doll, 2124 Centennial Drive, Louisville, Colorado, owner of Block 1, Lot 8, which they closed on January 15, 1994. He was married in July and came back from the honeymoon to find a letter in the mailbox stating that they would not be able to build on their land. They had been in contact with Sharon Asti-Caranci. He offered to also write a letter detailing his ordeal. Davidson called for anyone else wishing to speak on any item not on the Agenda.
