Dear Mayor and City Council Members:
(~i7'r' Ur ~ulER1D1,~1~J
~`iT' r r .-n!r r*rfr~.r-
I represent the Leighton Lateral. We respectfully request that you require all ditches to
be in concrete file along the lateral. More specifically, we are requesting the requirement
for concrete file for the Leighton Lateral and all other ditches leading to Jasmine Acres
and cunning through the W. H. Moore property.
The Leighton Lateral is piped in 30-inch concrete file from the Settlers Canal at
Cloverdale Road and west along Ustick Road until '/o mile from Eagle Road. Further the
lateral is tiled in concrete north from Ustick along Eagle road for 350 feet. From this
point, it is an open ditch west across Mr. Moore's property to the Davis property. T1ris
distance is approximately 1,320 feet and should be tiled in concrete, not plastic or metal.
The patrons of the Leighton Lateral have the responsibility to maintain and protect the
lateral from the Settlers Canal to the delivery point at our properties. Settlers Irrigation
only delivers the water to the point where the Leighton Lateral leaves the canal. We are
requesting concrete file to prevent any future damage, which could be possible with
plastic or metal pipe.
The Leighton Lateral supplies water to Champion Park Subdivision, Summerfield
Subdivision, the Davis property, the Hollister property, the school properties (includes
two chatter schools and one elementary school), Jasmine Acres, property owners Jack
Ketlenski, Ed Bollinger, Norman Cook, and Wally Hedrick.
We respectfiilly request that you require all ditches to be in concrete tile.
Sincerely,
Tom E. Davis
