Description
Plaintiff in error, the City and County of Denver, instituted this proceeding to condemn a flowage easement across .67 acres of land extending along the North Fork of the South Platte River in Park County, Colorado. Acquisition of the flowage easement was necessitated by proposed improvements in the stream channel, which is an integral part of a transmountain diversion system utilized to provide Denver with water. The condemned land is part of a parcel approximately two acres in size belonging to the defendants in error, Ralph C. Hinsey and Margurite L. Hinsey. The property of the defendants in error is improved with a motel, gift shop, cafe, and small trailer court, none of which is located within the area condemned. The issue of compensation and damages was tried to a jury, which returned a verdict of $19,100. The verdict, when broken down into its component parts, consisted of an award of $3,100 for the taking of the easement and $16,000 for damages to the residue of the property. Judgment was duly entered in accordance with the verdict.
