After being planned since 1997, Camino de Santa Fe opened to traffic on May 22, 2015. The City of Lamar had taken the initiative to finish the road that connects East Parmenter to East Olive Street and as a consequence, open more through traffic to the Dollar General Store and provide another traffic outlet to Walmart. City Administrator, John Sutherland, told the city council some time prior to the ribbon cutting, there were some concerns that the smaller retail store, Dollar General would allow its lease to expire as revenues were not meeting expectations. In the half year since traffic has been open on Camino de Santa Fe, there has been improvement at Dollar General. Store manager for the past six years, Carrie Hart, said several of her past general managers had expressed the same concern that the store was under-performing, mostly because it was difficult to reach. “I was listening to the news one day when I heard that the street would be completed and I went ‘Yea’, but then it also & Graphic took a year or so to complete after that,” she said. While Hart couldn’t specify just how 210 S Main St • Lamar, CO 81052 (719) 336-9095 SignSolutions much business had improved over the past six months, she said there has been a notice- able increase in shoppers. “We’re getting new faces in the store all the time and we do Decals • Posters • Banners • Truck Lettering have some people who come in several times a day to do some shopping,” she stated.

They had a ten year lease and with only a couple of years left, were thinking of letting it end. This new road can bring increased traffic to them and I’ve been in contact with two ad- ditional developers over the course of the year who are now interested in putting up stores. Sutherland added that an unofficial check shows that the store’s business has increased. Commenting on the re-opening of Taco John’s in early November, the City Adminis- trator said that will be a benefit to the city through a new business that will provide jobs, add to the city sales tax base and will once again become a commercial customer of the Lamar Light Plant.

DISTRICT COURT, WATER DIVISION NO. 1, STATE OF COLORADO Weld County Courthouse 901 9th Avenue P.O. Box 2038 Greeley, Colorado 80631 COURT USE ONLY (970) 351-7300 Plaintiff: The Jim Hutton Educational Foundation, a Colorado non-profit corporation, v. Case Number: 15CW3018 Defendants: Dick Wolfe, in his capacity as the Colorado State Engineer; David Nettles, in his capacity as Division Div. No. 1 Engineer in and for Water Division No. 1, State of Colorado; Colorado Division of Water Resources; and Colorado Division of Parks and Wildlife. NOTICE BY PUBLICATION
THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF COLORADO
TO THE WELL OWNERS WITHIN THE NORTHERN HIGH PLAINS DESIGNATED GROUNDWATER BASIN:
You are hereby notified that the Jim Hutton Educational Foundation (“Foundation”) has filed a Complaint in the above-captioned matter. The Foundation’s Complaint includes three claims for relief.
a. The Foundation’s first claim seeks declaratory and injunctive relief concerning the administration, management, and curtailment of its surface water rights. This claim includes challenges to the curtailment of the Foundation’s surface water rights under the Republican River Compact (“Compact”) and to the administration and management of Bonny Reservoir in a manner that injures the Hale Ditch and is inconsistent with certain contracts. The Foundation owns the Hutton Ranch located in Yuma County, Colorado, as well as four decreed surface water rights on the South Fork of the Republican River that are appurtenant to the Hutton Ranch. The surface water rights consist of the Tip Jack Ditch, a 1/3rd interest in the Hale Ditch (Priority No. 38), the Hutton Ditch No. 1, and the Hutton Ditch No. 2.
b. The Foundation’s second claim is a constitutional challenge to Senate Bill 52 (“SB-52”), which was proposed and adopted in 2010. SB-52 rewrote C.R.S. §37-90-106(1)(a) so that any alterations to a designated groundwater basin could only be used to increase the land area in that designated basin or, if land was to be excluded, it could not be land on which any designated well had been permitted. According to the Foundation, SB-52 deprives surface water right owners of the protections that originally existed in C.R.S. §37-90- 106(1)(a) when the Groundwater Management Act was adopted and when the Northern
76883
High Plains Designated Groundwater Basin was created by prohibiting the exclusion of lands from a designated groundwater basin when factual data demonstrates that wells on those lands are pumping groundwater that has more than a de minimis impact on surface water and as such cannot be properly classified as designated groundwater. The Foundation seeks to recover the legal right it held when the Northern High Plains Designated Groundwater Basin was created to redraw the basin boundaries as necessary to protect its surface water rights.
c.
