The motion passed 5-0.
4. VARIANCE REQUEST, 4070 Little Valley Road, Owner: Tom Everitt
Planner Hardin reviewed the variance request. During the zoning review for this permit it was
discovered that the existing deck on the southeast of the property encroached into the 35-foot
setback by 4'7". A permit for this deck was not found. On March 6, 2000, the Board of
Adjustment granted a setback variance from 50 feet to 35 feet along the rear lot line. An as-built
approval will be needed from Larimer County.
Commission Discussion:
Poggenpohl questioned why a building permit was issued with a nonconforming condition on the
site, which he will address with Larimer County Board of Appeals.

in progress and will be submitted to Larimer County soon.

code standards. The motion passed 5-0.
5. REPORTS:

Chair Morris called the meeting to order at 12:01 p.m.
PUBLIC COMMENT:
No public in attendance.
Solesbee reported that the owner of Solitude Cabins contacted her and expressed her
interest in having the Silver Route resume 2018 routes. Solesbee recommended the
owner write a letter to the TAB. The 2018 Silver Route was considered low-ridership.
APPROVAL OF MINUTES:
A motion was made and seconded (Slack/Street)to approve the December meeting
minutes and all were in favor.
TAB OFFICER ELECTIONS
Chair Morris reminded the group that the January meeting entails TAB Officer elections.
Co-Chair Street indicated he would be glad to continue as Co-Chair but isn't tied to it and
offered the opportunity for nominations. Chair Morris shared the same sentiment.
Member Black re-nominated Belle Morris as Chairperson and Tom Street as Co-Chair.
Member Slack seconded the nomination, and all were in favor. Officer elections will occur
again in January 2021.
TAB MEMBER EXPECTATIONS
Morris introduced the TAB Job Description (proposed), TAB By-laws and TAB Code of
Conduct to the members and requested all review the documentation individually and
bring feedback to the February 19, 2020 regularly scheduled TAB meeting.
Member Slack requested clarification on the reference to "3-yr term" in the TAB By-laws.
Slack asked that it state whether it is a single 3-year term, or multiple 3-year term
allowance, requesting consistency and clarity amongst the citizen advisory boards.
The ninth item in the Code of Conduct needs elaboration. Manager Solesbee will visit with
Town Administrator Machalek.

Transportation Advisory Board—January 20,2020—Page 2
Member Finley said the document needs to make it clear that each member supports team
decisions. Both Co-Chair Street and Member Wilcocks stressed the importance of gaining
clarity on sharing personal opinions representing self, versus time representing the TAB.
Clarification needs made regarding the appropriateness of a TAB member speaking in
front of the Town Board as a private citizen in disagreement with TAB decisions.
Morris stated that in order to maintain citizen trust, it is inappropriate for a TAB member to
create dissent for the TAB's decision, provide false information or inaccuracies. It's
important to clarify that what is being expressed is opinion.
RIVERWALK ACCESS TO BICYCLES
Co-Chair Street spoke to his motivation to find a way to bicycle down the Riverwalk path.
In the winter, he's observed the area and has measured to determine potential conflicts
with pedestrians. During winter months there is minimal conflict.
Street recommends two types of sharing along that area. Sharrows are symbolic and, in
theory, say to motorists to"watch for bicycles"to avoid conflicts. Street stated this is still a
very dangerous approach and creates a false sense of security. He finds it ironic that a
30-Ib bicycle is expected to share the road with a 5,000 Ib.vehicle traveling down Elkhorn
Avenue.
Member Street made a motion to request a trial allowance of cyclists on the Riverwalk
from November 2020 through April 2021. Member Slack has visited the area and has
measured the distance as about one-quarter mile. Slack stated that it is neither smooth or
straight and there are different measurements depending where you are along the walk.
Due to dog-walking and leashes, children running and playing, and the tourist population
it was determined appropriate to continue to have riders dismount in the Riverwalk area.
Wilcocks recommended the Downtown Plan be referenced as this concern was addressed
during its creation. Additionally, private ownership along the Riverwalk may create a
situation wherein a portion of the Riverwalk may be closed due to backlash from the
property owner(s). Member Street withdrew his motion. He feels there should be more
bicycle accommodations in Town.
TAB PRIORITY MATRIX
Chair Morris discussed re-ranking the TAB Priority Matrix and add needed items to align
with Public Works goals and objectives for 2020. She began by suggesting the Safe
Routes to School (SRTS) grants and objectives be pursued and be ranked high in the
matrix.
Several recommended additions were discussed including: Moraine Avenue's underpass
as outlined in the Downtown Plan; a CDOT study of US 34 for pedestrian crossing east of
existing crossing (Visitor Center to Stanley Village); doing more to achieve year-round
shuttle service; moving the RMNP Hiker Shuttle and Town Shuttle to the Events Complex
to alleviate Visitor Center parking lot congestion and traffic issues; the Comprehensive
Transportation Plan; and fast-charging stations for electric vehicles. Suggested additions
and individual rankings will be brought back to the regularly schedule February TAB
meeting for discussion.
PROJECT UPDATES (Public Works Director Greq Muhonen)
Director Muhonen informed the TAB that the Better Utilizing Investments to Leverage
Development(BUILD)Transportation Discretionary Grant program plans to release a
call for projects sometime in February. Muhonen will collect feedback from the grantors
from the last application to develop lessons learned and improve the next application
made by the Town.
Muhonen updated the TAB on the Downtown Estes Loop discussion held at the recent
Town Board Study Session. It was communicated to the Town Board Trustees that
Central Federal Lands(CFL)would be requesting funding for the gap in federal funding
for the fiscal year. Lack of these funds would further delay the project, however would
not stop the project. Muhonen will continue to collaborate with CFL and CDOT on
updating the existing agreement for the project and on establishing a proposal for how
to come up with the funding needed to proceed through the fiscal year gap. CDOT is
$ 12
Transportation Advisory Board—January 20,2020—Page 3
providing over$500K and the same is being requested of the Town.
Member Finley made a motion for the TAB put together a letter of support to the Town
Board encouraging the Town to provide the needed funding, emphasizing the benefits
of moving forward with the project. The motion was seconded by Wilcocks and all were
in favor.
PROJECT UPDATES (Enqineerinq Manaaer David Hook)
Manager Hook was in attendance to provide high-level updates on the projects for
which he oversees:
- Alarado Project—Review of the development is currently under way.
- Elkhorn Lodge—The development submittal has been received realigning the
entrance with Filby Court and incorporating trail improvements. Review is under
way.
- US 36&Community Drive Roundabout—The environmental and land use issues
have been addressed and design of the project is resuming.
- Wayfinding -The Town has hired a consultant to design the wayfinding signage
for the parking lot changes. A proposal is in-hand for review.
- Fall River Trail Extension—A Request for Proposal will go out this month for
construction of a portion of the Fall River Trail. A couple of grant applications
have been submitted for unfunded portions of the trail
PROJECT UPDATES (Parkinq 8�Transit Manaqer Vanessa Solesbee)
Manager Solesbee informed the TAB there would be a joint planning meeting with the
Shuttle Committee. Solesbee will provide the needed information for this meeting by the
end of the week. She further updated the TAB that the Title VI portion of the ADA would
go before the Town Board on January 28 for approval. This is required as federal
funding was received for the electric shuttle. The new electric trolley will be ready for a
February delivery.
Solesbee stated that the contract for the Paid Parking Consultant was approved by the
Town Board. The contract includes management of the paid parking program, permit
program, staffing, etc.for the initial rollout of paid parking in downtown Estes Park.

APPROVAL OF MINUTES
A motion was made and seconded (Papineau/Wilcocks)to approve the December
meeting minutes and all were in favor.
NOXIOUS WEED ORDINANCE DISCUSSION
Lt. Life of the Estes Park Police Department(EPPD)was in attendance to speak to the
status of the proposed Noxious Weed Ordinance. Life stated he's had meetings with
Code Enforcement Officer Michael Madachy, Parks Supervisor Brian Berg, and Town
Attorney Kramer, to review both the existing and proposed Noxious Weed Ordinance
language.
Life stated he has a list of key issues to present to the PAB. Life is requesting help to
determine how the EPPD can collaborate with the PAB on establishing an education
program for noxious weeds. Lt. Life would prefer to provide understanding of what
noxious weeds can to do the community, thus creating buy-in, as a preferred
enforcement method to issuing citations. He'd like to first get the community going in the
right direction. By pointing out that some of these weeds are toxic to wildlife and are not
intended to reside in the region, Life hopes that citizens and/or business owners will
better relate to the severity of the situation.
Law enforcement could continue to get involved per the existing ordinance, however
there are issues associated with heightened enforcement and would require a
specialized individual to identify,with 100% certainty that the weed is in fact, noxious.
Life provided one example he's learned which are that there are several different types
of thistle, some native and some noxious. To properly enforce, there must be the ability
to present a case that is beyond a reasonable doubt. Law enforcement must be able to
establish probable cause and an expert must be able to confirm the weed is noxious.
This process would be extremely time-consuming and potentially more costly. Madachy
stated he's cited only one individual this year but was unable to take the matter to court
11 15
RECORD OF PROCEEOINGS
Parks Advisory Board—January 16,2020—Page 2
due to the complexity of the law. The EPPD can enforce Class C noxious weeds (i.e.
Downy Brome), if local board determines it is a community threat. Unenforceable are
weeds on properties bordering public rights of way and easements unless diligently
maintained by the Town. Another complexity to enforcing this ordinance is ensuring that
the herbicides required in order to manage some noxious weeds, are not required to be
sprayed by licensed pesticide applicators.
Member Papineau stated that a key educational component is the Weed Management
attachment. Life stated the educational document needs to be presented and published
more aggressively. Life would be hesitant to make this attachment part of the ordinance
due to the complexities of modifying the document (educational sheet). Supervisor Berg
suggested the potential addition to the policy.
Papineau stated that this is State law and asked why this is treated differently than other
State laws. Papineau doesn't feel either education or enforcement is unattainable. She
stated that it is better than in the past, with the educational component in place, but she
doesn't believe it insurmountable, especially if the primary focus is only on the noxious
weeds listed in Fourteen Very Unwanted Weeds in the Estes Valley—Identification and
Management Guide. Papineau has a copy of a past letter sent by the Town of Estes
Park notifying a property owner of potential fines for noxious weeds.
Supervisor Berg asked the PAB if all members viewed the Town Board Study Session
where this ordinance discussion was held as he'd suggested. It is important to hear with
the Town Board is requesting of the PAB before such an ordinance is considered. Chair
Moore feels that what was asked has already been done stating the Estes Land
Stewardship Association (ELSA) publishes educational material for the community each
year.
Papineau stated there's potentially only one percent of property owners, once educated,
that may not comply. The Town needs a strong ordinance, not as stringent, but
stressing the educational component. The ordinance, as proposed, would make it easier
for all parties.
Member Wilcocks asked what is needed to make this acceptable for the Town Board.
The language of either existing or proposed ordinance would generate the same
penalties. The focus needs to be on education.
Papineau recommended a meeting be scheduled to identify the needed ordinance
language. The Town Board does not like the new requirements referenced by Larimer
County. Papineau stated the proposed ordnance mirrors what is done in Carriage Hills
and other areas of Town that are outside Town limits leaving different treatment for
violations within the same town.
Berg stated that Larimer County is set up much differently than the Town of Estes Park
in that they've been assigned the needed resources and personnel to perform this level
of enforcement, in addition to those performing the weed management functions on
properties that aren't being managed by the property owner. The Town does not have
the ability to enforce the same way Larimer County is able.
All members agree that education is the key. A meeting will be set up to review the
concerns provided and a modified version will be brought back to the PAB.
MRS WALSH'S GARDEN COMMITTEE UPDATE
The Town published a Request for Proposal (RFP)yesterday for the Mrs. Walsh's
Garden Master Plan creation.

RECORD OF PROCEEOINGS
Parks Advisory Board—January 16,2020—Page 3
The last committee meeting involved discussion regarding the planning for the next
garden season which is June. Planning will continue and updates will be provided
moving forward.
The committee has a new member. Her name is Lisa Hutchins, an Estes Park resident
and former Executive Director of the Audubon Society in Denver.
The group continues to work toward their Google group transition from the former
member that created the Google group.
HISTORIC WOMEN OF ESTES SUBCOMMITTEE UPDATE
Member Wilcocks stated the subcommittee is making good progress. With nearly 40
individuals on the subcommittee, there is lots of energy. Over the past couple months
work has occurred determining the type of art will be used for this recognition, the
desired location, and needed attributes. Wilcocks stated that a vote was held in
December generating the creation of resolution with specifics, which Wilcocks provided
via hand-out to the PAB. He requested the members review the information and bring
their feedback to the next meeting and to discuss whether or not the resolution is ready
to be presented to the Town Board.
The next committee meeting will be held the first Wednesday in February, 2020.
Wilcocks would like to have feedback from the PAB on any suggested edits to the
language and clarification on the resolution content. He stated that the resolution asks
only for the Town's support regarding the selected location and that there's no reference
to a request for funding. As a subcommittee, the resolution would be taken to the Town
Board via the PAB and staff liaison once deemed ready.
Chair Moore asked Town Board Liaison Martchink if it is appropriate to identify locations
at this stage of the process. Martchink doesn't feel this is the appropriate time, however
Muhonen reminded the group that the location of the monument is key to the mission of
this subcommittee.
Wilcocks further stated that the subcommittee critically needs to have a Fundraising
Chair in place. Nominations have been solicited and the group is proceeding with
ballots.
Supervisor Berg stated the importance of the Sunshine Law and that any feedback
provided on the resolution language needs to be individually sent to Wilcocks. It is
important there are no violations. PAB members agreed to maintain only individual
communication with Wilcocks on this matter until the next regularly scheduled meeting.
PARKS UPDATES
The Mountain Heritage Festival planning is moving forward. An individual from the
school joined the group. The group decided to move the pool to the West Barn. The
festival will take place on April 24�h. There will be informational and educational table
and the Parks Division, Estes Land Stewardship Association, the Parks Advisory Board
and Mrs. Walsh's Garden will have tables together.
OFFICER ELECTIONS
Chair Moore determined that, due to being in mid-recruitment for PAB members, it
would be best to defer officer elections to the regularly scheduled February meeting.

OTHER BUSINESS
Moore asked that everyone ensure they have a full copy of the handouts for review and
feedback next month (i.e. PAB Bylaws, Town Committee Policy, Code of Conduct).
Moore provided a handout to the PAB containing the proposed outline of an AIPP
funding presentation for the Town Board created by Rex Poggenpohl. Moore requested
feedback on the document at the next meeting.
Wilcocks provided the PAB a second handout with a mission statement and defined
structure for the potential development of an Arts Advisory Committee (AAC). There are
currently 35 stakeholders involved in discussions regarding the potential of
establishment of the AAC. Wilcocks stated that, in speaking with arts community, he's
witnessed excitement for something that will bring the art community together.
Wilcocks stated that even if this is not approved as a PAB subcommittee, he's hoping
for it to be its own Board. Muhonen agreed that, based on whaYs been presented, it
should be its own Board. He further stated that it would prove beneficial to have artists
solicit support from the Town Board of Trustees, wherein majority support would be
required (4),to get something established. Moore agrees there is argument for the AAC
to be its own Board.
With no other business to discuss, a motion was made and seconded (Papineau/
Wilcocks)to adjourn the meeting at 10:10 a.m. and all were in favor.

Board of Trustees
Through: Town Administrator Machalek
From: Water Superintendent Eshelman
Utilities Director Bergsten
Date: March 10, 2020
RE: Approval to Spend $1.2 Million for the Glacier Plant
Pretreatment Engineering
(Mark all that apply)
❑ PUBLIC HEARING ❑ ORDINANCE ❑ LAND USE
❑ CONTRACT/AGREEMENT ❑ RESOLUTION � OTHER
QUASI-JUDICIAL ❑ YES � NO
Obiective:
To provide high-quality reliable water service to our residents, businesses, and guests
by improving the pretreatment process at the Glacier Water Treatment Plant.
To obtain Board approval for the Mayor to sign a purchase order for the engineering
expenditure of$1.2 million.
Present Situation:
The budget for the engineering was approved by the board at its February 25t" meeting.
The Town's procurement policy requires the Mayor to sign purchase orders over
$100,000. The Board must vote to authorize the Mayor to sign this purchase order for
$1,200,000.
Through the state's Disinfection Outreach Verification Effort (DOVE), the Glacier Creek
Water Treatment Plant designation changed from Conventional Filtration to Direct
Filtration. Our water quality remains superb, but this change means our regulatory
standards have become stricter, making it difficult to increase the plant's output during
the summer season. We have prioritized this project ensure we stay within compliance.
The 50-year old Glacier Water Treatment Plant has exceeded its useful life and must be
rebuilt. This project will be the first phase and is designed to be complementary to the
future plant.
�5 �g
Last year we engaged our engineer at HDR Engineering to complete a Preliminary
Engineering Report and Environmental Study. These reports were required in our $11
million application for USDA project financing. We hope to hear back from the USDA
within two months.
We need to proceed with engineering as soon as possible to reduce the vulnerability of
our raw water supply. The Marys Lake Plant will be our only supply of potable water
during construction, approximately 18 months. Marys raw water supply is from the
Adam Tunnel. Every fall, the Adams Tunnel is shut down for maintenance.
Superintendent Eshelman has worked with the Bureau of Reclamation to make sure
some water continues to flow through the Adams Tunnel during the BOR's 2021 fall
maintenance. Construction needs to be completed before the fall of 2022 to avoid the
risk from a second tunnel closure and the resulting risk that it presents to our raw water
source. A delay in engineering will delay the whole project.
We are using fund balance to begin the engineering work. The engineering costs are
eligible to be financed That is, our fund balance will be restored from the USDA project
loan.
Proposal:
Staff proposes the Board authorize the Mayor to sign the $1.2 million purchase order to
HDR Engineering for the final design of the Glacier Plant pretreatment project.
Advantaaes:
• The project is designed to integrate with the future reconstruction of the treatment
plant as well as the new raw water intake at the confluence of the Glacier Creek and
Big Thompson River
• Maintain compliance with the increased regulatory requirements
• The engineering firm has in-depth knowledge because they created the preliminary
engineering and environmental reports required for the application for USDA
financing.
Disadvantaaes:
• This project is expensive; however, we anticipated replacing this 50-year-old plant
and began raising rates eight years ago to build the financial strength to afford future
loan payments.
Action Recommended:
Staff recommends approving the engineering costs.
Finance/Resource Impact:
$1.2 million, Budgeted
Level of Public Interest
Low
16 20
Sample Motion:
This will be on the consent agenda.
Should it be removed the following sample motion could be used.
I move to approve/deny the engineering costs to design the Glacier Pretreatment
project.

RE: Electric Rate Increase Report
Obiective:
To publicly present the electric rate study results prior to the Public Meeting and Town
Board vote on at 7:00 p.m. during the April 14, 2020 Town Board Meeting in the Town
Board Room at 170 MacGregor Avenue.
Present Situation:
To ensure continued high-quality utility services and plan for future upgrades through
capital improvement projects, we periodically review the cost of providing services as
well as projected revenue - the rates paid by customers.
The Town's public electric utility is a cost-based entity that relies solely on user fees to
operate. Costs and revenues must be balanced in order to maintain operations and
keep utilities in line with ever-increasing federal standards. We are proposing an
overall revenue increase of 5.9% spread out over three years.
The study also ensures equitable rates among customer classes, so that one customer
class does not subsidize another. Residential customers make up 70%, and small
commercial (aka commercial) make up 22% of our customers. The following tables
show the proposed rate impacts:

Hard copies of the study and proposed rate sheet are located at the Municipal building
and library for the public to review. They are also on our website.
Proposal:
The proposed electric rate schedule, the entire rate study, and rate study presentation is
attached.
Advantaqes:
• Maintain adequate financial strength required to operate the enterprise
• Meet our bond covenants obligations
• Fund project required to improve reliability, quality and safety of our system
Disadvantaqes:
Higher cost of electricity; however, our daily use of electricity requires reliable, safe
electricity.
Action Recommended:
Staff recommends the Board asks questions to increase your confidence in your vote on
April 14t"
Finance/Resource Impact:
Over three years electric revenues will increase 5.9°/o
Level of Public Interest
High, increases to utility rates will touch every Power and Communications customer

PROJECT SUMMARY
Introduction
In November 2018, the Town of Estes Park, Colorado (Town or Estes Park)/Estes Park Power and
Communication (EPPC or the Utility) hired NewGen Strategies and Solutions, LLC (NewGen) to develop a
Financial Forecast (Forecast), Cost of Service (COS) and proposed Rate Design Study analysis, collectively
the Study (Study),for their electric utility.
The Study determined the total cost of providing electric services, the cost responsibility for the various
customer classes, and the design of rates to safeguard the financial integrity of the utility. The total cost
of providing services predominately includes operations and maintenance (O&M)expenses, debt service,
and cash capital outlays required to rebuild and modernize the Electric System (System). This Electric Rate
Study Report (Report) discusses the process, analyses, and recommendations related to the Study.
The Town's fiscal year (FY) is from January 1 to December 31. Unless otherwise stated in this Report, all
data presented herein is shown in FYs. The Study included an analysis of an estimated Test Year Revenue
Requirement (Revenue Requirement), an unbundled COS analysis based on FY 2022 (Test Year), a rate
analysis,and the development of proposed new electric rates for several customer classes. Various policy
issues were also identified and discussed. EPPC provided the majority of the System-specific data utilized
for the Study. In certain cases,where information was not available, NewGen developed estimates based
on our experience and publicly available information. Analyses were performed in accordance with
generally accepted industry practices for municipal electric utilities.
Our report contains five sections as follows:
• Section 1—Project Summary: Provides an overview of the Study and EPPC
• Section 2—Revenue Requirement: Discusses the development of the Revenue Requirement
• Section 3—Cost of Service: Provides the COS results through functionalization, classification, and
allocation
• Section 4—Rate Design: Presents the proposed electric rates for full requirements service
• Section 5—Conclusions and Recommendations: Summarizes conclusions and recommendations
Electric Utility Description
During the Test Year, EPPC is projected to serve, approximately 11,000 retail electric customers with
annual electricity sales of approximately 127 million kilowatt-hours (kWh). EPPC serves all customers
within the Town,as well as some customers outside the Town. The electricity supplied to Rocky Mountain
National Park (RMNP) is provided by the United States Bureau of Reclamation and the Town is only paid
to deliver that electricity.

Section 1
Purchased Power / Transmission
Estes Park is one of four owner communities of the Platte River Power Authority (Platte River). Platte
River provides the power and owns, operates and purchases transmission capacity for its owner
communities. Platte River initiated wholesale rate changes, which impact the rates and rate structures
for EPPC, and are incorporated into the analysis conducted for this Study.
EPPC Distribution
The EPPC distribution system consists of a total of approximately 330 circuit miles of conductor, of which
approximately 35%are underground. The distribution system has approximately 231 miles of secondary
line, approximately 32%are underground.
Projected Energy Requirements
EPPC's electric consumption used in the Study is shown in Table 1-1 and is based on estimates made for
the Test Year 2022. Total consumption reflects sales to EPPC retail customers plus System losses of
approximately 4.54%. Energy sales to retail customers were based on EPPC's projected energy sales
during the Study period.

Financial and Rate Making Tools _ -
NewGen created three core financial and rate modeling tools. These tools work together and are
integrated to help EPPC make rate and financial related decisions. The tools help EPPC manage the
financial performance of the utility,forecast debt requirements, and rate changes needed for operations
and capital, and translate system-wide rate changes into customer class specific rates and bill impacts.
The figure below illustrates the relationship between the tools, their recommended use, and when they
should be updated.

PROJECT SUMMARY
NewGen developed a ten-year financial forecast model for EPPC to evaluate rate changes required to
meet the financial needs of the utility. NewGen reviewed historical and budgeted operating data, capital
expenditures, and operating expenses in the development of the financial forecast.
Cost of Service and Rate Design Process Overview
The COS and rate design process includes five steps as follows:
1. Determination of the Revenue Requirement—This first step examines the utility's financial needs
and determines the amount of revenue that must be generated from rates. For municipal utilities,
the revenue requirement is determined on a "cash basis." A "cash basis" analysis examines the
cash obligations of the utility such as O&M expenses, debt service, cash funded capital projects,
transfers, any required contributions to reserves, and payments to the Town. Rates are set such
that the utility can pay its bills on an annual going-forward basis.
In preparing our analysis of the electric rates and the development of the revenue requirement,
NewGen relied upon records of operation, customer billing data, and other detailed information
and data compiled and provided by the Town and EPPC's management and staff.
2. Functionalization and Sub functionalization of Costs—The revenue requirement is then assigned
to the particular function or sub-function of the utility. Utilities, like Estes Park, typically have
purchased power/ production, transmission, distribution, and customer services functions. As
indicated, Platte River provides the purchased power/production and transmission functions for
EPPC. Distribution sub-functions may include distribution infrastructure by voltage, metering,
services, etc. Customer sub-functions include billing and collections, customer service, meter
reading, etc.
3. Classification of Costs — Once costs are functionalized, costs are then classified based on the
underlying nature of the costs. Of particular importance is the determination of fixed versus
variable costs. Fixed costs remain a financial obligation of the utility regardless of the amount of
energy used whereas variable costs fluctuate based on System energy requirements. Further,
fixed and variable costs are associated with utility requirements to meet customer demand,
energy, and customer service needs.
4. Allocation of Costs — Once costs are classified, they are then allocated to the various customer
classes. Allocation factors align with cost classification. Therefore, demand-related costs are
allocated on measures of customer class demand such as customer class contribution to the
System coincident peak(CP). Energy allocation factors are based on energy consumed by
customers. Customer allocation factors are based on the number of customers.
5. Rate Design —The fifth and final step is rate design, which translates COS results into rates for
each customer class.

Section 3 of the Report describes the COS process. The results of the COS analysis provide a detailed
assessment of the costs required to serve each of the customer classes. These customer class costs are
unbundled into utility functions and classified into demand,energy,and customer components. customer
class costs are compared to the projected revenues under current rates to determine if current rates are
sufficient to meet costs. Once completed, the COS analysis is the basis for rate design. A comparison of
the Revenue Requirement by customer class and revenues collected under 2019 tariffs is shown in Table

Rate Design
Rate design is the culmination of a COS study as the rates and charges for each customer class are designed
to equitably and fully recover the System-wide COS and customer class revenue requirements by the end
of the rate period. Section 4 of the Report describes proposed rate design for each customer class. EPPC's
electric rates include the following components:
■ Customer Charge
• Energy Charge
• Demand Charge (as applicable)
• Wholesale Power Cost Adjustment
• Time of Use Charges (as applicable)
• Renewable Rider (as applicable)
Base rates include the customer charge, energy charge, and demand charge, and are applied to the
appropriate monthly billing determinants (e.g., number of customer months, kWh consumption, etc.) to
project the new rate revenues by customer class. These projected revenues from the proposed rates are
compared to the Revenue Requirement to ensure that rates generate sufficient revenue to recover the
Revenue Requirement.
1-7 39
Section 1
Based on a review of the existing rate structure, it was determined that the cost recovery components
(e.g., customer, energy, and/or demand charges) were not in alignment with the COS results. Proposed
rates in the Study were designed to move each customer class closer to its COS while evaluating the impact
of rate changes on customers' monthly bills. NewGen performed a detailed analysis of monthly bill
impacts associated with proposed rates on the majority of EPPC customers. In consideration of customer
bill impacts, proposed rates, although moving closer to the customer class COS, do not precisely match
the classification of costs for each rate customer class. The Town's objectives for rate design, as discussed
herein, were also incorporated into the proposed rate design.
Based on our analysis of rate impacts and conversations with EPPC management and staff, it was
determined that new rates would be phased in over a three-year period. The first rate changes would be
implemented in 2020,the second in 2021,and the third in 2022. This implementation reduces the overall
rate impact from the proposed changes in base rates in any one year. Additional information and analysis
for EPPC's proposed rates are included in Section 4 of the Report.
1-8 40
Section 2
REVENUE REQUIREMENT
As part of the Study, NewGen developed a Revenue Requirement inclusive of all of EPPC's cash operating
and capital expenses paid for from rates. The Revenue Requirement is based on projected Test Year
operating and financial results. Development of the Revenue Requirement was based on projected cost
information provided by EPPC, the Town and Platte River. The Revenue Requirement development
process is detailed in this section.
Revenue Requirement
To remain financially sound, EPPC's electric rates must produce sufficient revenues to recover the total
costs of providing electric service to their customers. These costs imposed on the System by customers
are commonly referred to as the utility's "revenue requirement" and consist of normal operating
expenses, debt service, capital improvements and additions, transfers to the Town, non-operating
expenses, and reserve requirements. These total revenue requirements are then compared to utility
revenues to evaluate the need for rate changes. The revenue requirement acts as the foundation of a
COS study.
The following is a discussion of the core components of the Revenue Requirement and significant
differences from the 2019 Board adopted final budget and the Revenue Requirement(see Table 2-1).The
Revenue Requirement was developed utilizing EPPC's system of accounts, then allocated to each
functional element of the utility operations (purchased power/transmission, distribution, and customer).
Purchased Power
Purchased power costs for EPPC consists exclusively of purchased power costs (including transmission)
from Platte River. The Test Year cost for purchased power is based on a Platte River forecast.
Distribution
Distribution includes personnel expenses, professional contracting, repair and maintenance costs, and
other costs associated with utility operations of the distribution system. The Test Year cost for distribution
is based on the 2019 final budget inflated based on the nature of the cost. For example, labor related
costs are increased at 2.1%per year based on the Blue Chip Economic Indicators GDP Chained Price Index.
Customer Service
Customer service includes personnel expenses, professional contracting, and other costs associated with
meeting the customer needs of the utility. The Test Year cost for customer service related costs is based
on the 2019 final budget inflated based on the nature of the cost.
Administration and General
Administration and General includes administrative management services, residential / commercial
energy efficiency expenses, franchise fees, and other costs associated with administration and general
functions of the utility. The Test Year cost for administration and general related costs is based on the
2019 final budget inflated based on the nature of the cost.

Section 2
Debt Service
EPPC has existing debt associated with its Electric System and Fiber/Communications System. The Series
2007 Bond was refinanced in 2019, and this new issue is scheduled to be fully repaid in 2039. The Test
Year debt service is based on the debt service schedule for the new Series 2019 Bond.
General Fund Transfer
The general fund transfer is approximately 10.5%of total revenue.
Change in Working Capital
Change in working capital accounts for any shortfalls between the working capital balance at the
beginning of the year and the working capital goal for that year in order to maintain EPPC's policy of 90
days of working capital, consistent with EPPC's bond covenants.
Capital
Capital expenses include costs associated with power line construction, fleet replacements, meter
upgrades, and other capital expenses. The Test Year capital expenses are based on an annualized capital
need assessment,with most of the annual costs increased at 2.1% per year. The Test Year value for these
expenses is projected to be approximately $1,747,792, of which approximately $319,612 is expected to
be funded by customer contributed capital.
Offsets to Revenue Requirement
Offsets to the projected Revenue Requirement include reductions associated with investment income,
miscellaneous non-rate revenues, and planned under-recovery as developed by the ten-year financial
plan, as shown in Appendix B, Schedule 1.
The planned under-recovery is reflective of the policy decision to draw down on existing financial reserves
to fully fund capital needs of the utility while allowing rates to be increased more gradually. The ten-year
financial plan contemplated a drawdown of reserves but remaining above the 90-day target.

Section 3
COST OF SERVICE
After determining the Revenue Requirement, a COS for each customer class is developed to determine
the specific costs to serve each customer class. Customer class revenues are compared to customer class
Revenue Requirements to evaluate the ability of the current rates to recover costs. NewGen analyzed the
cost to serve each customer class based on the Revenue Requirement developed in Section 2.
Once completed, the COS results indicate the degree to which existing rates recover the costs to serve
customers. The COS results are then used to design new electric rates.
The COS analyses relied on the following key supporting data and analysis:
■ Revenue Requirement and revenues based on current rates;
■ System and customer class demand and energy requirements;
■ Actual and assumed customer service characteristics; and
■ Information obtained from customer accounts and records.
Functionalization of Revenue Requirement
EPPC's electric rates were unbundled into three functions: purchased power, distribution, and customer
service, as shown in Appendix B, Schedule 2. The assignment of costs by function falls into two general
categories: 1) direct assignments and 2) derived allocations. Direct assignments are costs that are readily
associated with a specific utility function and are directly assigned to that function. For example, the
energy expense is clearly an expense solely related to purchased power, so it is directly assigned to that
function.
Derived allocators are allocation factors that are based on the sum, average, or weighted effect of
different underlying factors. Derived allocators can be complex and should reflect the logical answer to
the following question—what underlying activities drive the cost of this item? For example,administrative
and general expenses are associated with the O&M of all utility functions. Thus, administrative and
general expenses are allocated to each utility function using a derived allocator. Each of the three utility
functions is described below.
Purchased Power Function
The production function consists of costs associated with purchased power and transmission services
from Platte River as well as an allocated portion of payment in lieu of taxes, franchise fees and a small
number of other expenses.
Distribution Function
The distribution function consists of costs associated with operating and maintaining the distribution
portion of the electric grid and making capital investments,as necessary. The distribution facilities deliver
power to retail customers after it has been transmitted. This includes low voltage distribution lines,
distribution poles, underground lines, customer service connections, meters, and lighting-related assets.

Customer Service Function
The customer service function consists of costs associated with operating and maintaining the
customer-related facilities to meet customer support needs. This includes, but is not limited to,customer
service, billing and collection, and meter reading.
Revenue Requirement by Function
The Revenue Requirement determined was "unbundled" into the three functional areas of the System —
purchased power, distribution, and customer. The results of the functional unbundling are summarized
in Table 3-1.

The purchased power function represents approximately 45% of the Revenue Requirement. The
distribution function represents approximately 51%of the Revenue Requirement. The customer function
represents approximately 4%of the Revenue Requirement.
Classification of Costs
To provide a reasonable basis for the assignment of the total Revenue Requirement to each customer
class,costs for each function in the Electric System have been analyzed and classified into four rate-making
cost classifications, as described below.
• Demand Costs—Capacity (fixed- or demand-related) costs are those costs incurred to maintain a
utility system in a state of readiness to serve, enabling it to meet the total combined demands of
its customers. Capacity costs include the portion of O&M expenses, debt service, capital
expenditures, and other costs that are generally fixed and do not vary materially with the quantity
of usage or that cannot be designated specifically as a customer or variable cost.
• Energy Costs— Energy, or variable costs, are costs that vary directly with energy usage, including
such items as fuel, energy-related purchased power, and a portion of O&M expenses.
• Customer Costs — Customer costs are those costs directly related to the number and type of
customers, such as customer accounting, billing, and meter related expenses.
■ Direct Assignment Costs—Direct assignment costs are those costs that are readily identifiable and
applicable to a particular customer or customer class.
Once the costs within each function are assigned to each service category,the demand,energy,customer,
and direct assignment component of each service is calculated. The classification of costs functionalized
to Purchased Power are shown in Appendix B, Schedule 3. The classification of costs functionalized to
Distribution are shown in Appendix B, Schedule 4. The classification of costs functionalized to Customer
are shown in Appendix B, Schedule 5.
As provided in Table 3-3, three major cost categories (demand, energy, and customer) cover the majority
of all functional costs. This breakdown of demand, energy, customer, and direct assignment costs is later
applied to each customer class to facilitate rate design, as provided in Section 4.

In total, approximately 27%of EPPC's total Revenue Requirement is energy-related or variable costs. The
remaining 73% of the Revenue Requirement is fixed in nature and classified as demand, customer, or
directly assigned to particular customer classes.
Allocation of Costs
Once costs are functionalized and classified, they are then allocated to the various customer classes.
Customer Classes represent aggregations of customers that have similar customer usage characteristics
and use the System in a similar manner.
Customer Class Allocation Factors
Based upon actual and assumed customer service characteristics, NewGen developed various factors for
use in allocating the adjusted Revenue Requirements to individual customer classes. These allocation
factors reflect accepted ratemaking principles and were based upon embedded cost allocation
procedures.
We have developed demand-related, energy-related, customer-related, and direct assignment allocation
factors, as described below.
Demand Allocations
Demand allocators are derived based on the demand requirements of individual customers and customer
classes. Purchased Power-related demand costs are allocated to customer classes based on the customer
class's contribution to the System peak, or coincident peak (CP) allocators. This is a measure of each
3-4 47
COST OF SERVICE
customer classes'cost responsibility associated with the infrastructure required to meet the System peak
demand. As you move from the generator to the meter, the measure of peak demand responsibility
changes from a System perspective (CP), to a customer class perspective (non-CP), to a customer
perspective (demand at meter). Demand contributions at these various points in the System are
determined based on load research, billing data provided by EPPC, and industry research and experience.
Demand allocators can be based on the one peak month during a year, multiple months (such as the four
summer months),or the 12 months of the year,depending on how the underlying costs are incurred (cost
causation).
For this Study, the Platte River Summer (Summer CP) and Non-Summer (Non-Summer CP) coincident
peaks were used to allocate purchased power-related summer and non-summer demand costs
respectively. The summer season for Platte River occurs from June through September while the Non-
Summer season occurs from October through May. For purchased power transmission demand, a
transmission with ratchet allocator (Transmission) was used. The Transmission allocator was a
combination of the EPPC 12-month coincident peak (12CP) allocator and EPPC 1-month coincident peak
(1CP) allocator. The 12CP allocator was used to allocate transmission costs before the ratchet, while the
1CP allocator was used to allocate the incremental transmission costs associated with the ratchet.
A Non-coincident peak(NCP) allocator is typically used to allocate distribution costs.This is a measure of
localized peak demands rather than the System peak demand. The distribution-related demand costs
were allocated using a 9-month non-coincident peak(9NCP)for substations,overhead,and underground.
For transformers,the sum of max demands (SMD) allocator was used.
Table 3-4 compares the various demand allocators utilized in the Study.

Energy Allocations
Energy allocation factors are the basis for allocating costs or expenses classified as variable or
energy-related and are assumed to vary directly with kWh sales. Energy-related costs classified as variable
were wholesale energy costs and renewable energy from Platte River. Net energy for load (NEFL), or the
3-5 48
Section 3
energy necessary to supply each customer class, is used to allocate these types of costs to individual
customer classes. NEFL is also sometimes called adjusted metered load or energy at generation, as it
takes into consideration energy losses that occur on the transmission and distribution systems between
the power supplier delivery point and the customer's meter. The energy from production utilized several
different NEFL allocators. Summer energy used a NEFL summer allocator,while non-summer energy used
a NEFL non-summer allocator. The summer and non-summer seasons were based on Platte River's
seasons. The renewable energy was allocated based on the NEFL allocator.
Table 3-5 lists the energy allocation factors utilized in the Study, which incorporates the losses at the
various levels of the System.

Customer Allocations
Customer costs are defined as those costs related to the number of customers and the type of service
required. Included in the customer-related costs are the costs associated with meter reading, customer
service, billing, collection, and other customer-related activities. The customer allocation factors were
largely based on the number of customers in each customer class. These allocations included a weighting
factor depending on the nature and size of the customer served in each customer class. Weighting reflects
that servicing certain types of customers requires more effort and expenses than other types of
customers. Weighting factors were developed based on discussions with EPPC staff, as well as applying
industry knowledge and practices. Weighting factors derive relationships between the customer classes
and equipment or services needed to serve the customer class and the relative costs of those items.

Section 4
RATE DESIGN
Rate design is the culmination of a COS study where the rates and charges for each customer classification
are established in such a manner that the total Revenue Requirement of the Utility will be recovered in
an equitable manner consistent, to the extent reasonable and practical, with EPPC and Town policies.
Consideration was given to the proper level of recovery of fixed costs in the customer and demand
charges, as well as phasing in the proposed rates over time.
Rate Design Offerings
EPPC currently offers a variety of rates to its customers, depending on the nature of the end-use of the
electricity (e.g., residential, non-residential) and the level of energy consumed. Rate riders offered by
EPPC include a renewable generation option called the Renewable Energy Purchase Program (REPP).
Customers may subscribe to the REPP in 100 kWh blocks or opt to have all energy subscribed. The results
of the Study do not suggest the need to change the current renewable rate adder of$0.0275 per kWh for
the REPP.
Table 4-1 provides a summary of the rate customer classes and sub-customer classes, the number of
customers in each customer class(estimated for the Test Year),the total estimated revenue generated by
each customer class/sub-customer class for the Test Year under proposed rates,and comments regarding
the applicability of each customer class / sub-customer class (see EPPC rate tariffs for specific tariff
applicability rules and regulations). For all seasonal rate applications, EPPC's summer season includes
billings based on meter reading in the months of May, June, July, and August. The Non-summer period
consists of the remaining eight month period.These seasons are different from Platte River.

Rate Design Objectives
In general,proposed rate structures for this Study should meet the following objectives and best practices:
• Rates should be equitable among customer classes and individuals within customer classes,taking
into consideration the costs incurred to serve each customer class.
• Rates may take into consideration other important factors, such as competitive concerns, policies,
or the public interest.
• Rates should be simple and understandable.
The foundation of rate design is COS results tempered with policy considerations important to the
community. Specific rate design goals for EPPC include:
4-2 54
RATE DESIGN
■ Based on COS results
■ Improved fixed cost recovery
■ Phase-in rate changes to reduce undue rate impacts to customer classes (i.e., rate shock)
■ Move towards COS results by customer class to decrease intra-class subsidization
■ Update seasonal price differentiations based on Platte River costs
One of the key rate design policy objectives was related to customer classes that were projected to be
over-recovering the COS. These customer classes were eventually going to need rate increases,according
to the ten-year financial plan. Thus, the decision was made to set rates for these customers to maintain
the current level of revenue for the customer class. Thus, these customers would move towards COS
gradually over time. This also lessened the need for more drastic rate adjustments for customer classes
that were projected to be under-recovering the COS, as illustrated in Appendix B, Schedule 7.
Electric Rate Structure
The proposed base electric rates include a customer charge,an energy charge,and demand charge,where
applicable. Generally, the customer charge should be designed to recover customer-related costs; the
energy charge should be designed to recover all applicable power production costs; and the demand
charge should be designed to recover demand-related costs. The customer, energy,and demand charges
are commonly referred to as "base rates", as they exclude the rate riders, such as the renewable rate
adder or increases in the purchase power costs passed-through to customers via the wholesale power
cost adjustment.
Customer and demand charges generally collect revenues that cover EPPC's fixed costs. Energy charges
may collect revenues to recover both fixed and variable costs. For customer classes that do not have
demand charges, a large portion of fixed costs may be collected through the energy charge.
Rate Design Results
Appendix B, Schedule 8 includes a summary of all proposed rates by customer class. The proposed rates
are summarized for each customer class below. A histogram of customer monthly billing impacts and
effective rates by load factor or consumption is included to illustrate and compare current rates, proposed
2022 rates, and COS results. Histograms of bill impacts are based on customer usage patterns from
January 2018 to December 2018, as provided by EPPC.
Residential Service (R)
The Residential Service customer class is available to all residential customers. It is composed of
residential customers served on a retail basis and includes a customer charge and an energy charge. Table
4-2 compares the COS rates, current rates, and proposed rates for the Residential Service customer class.

The COS analysis indicates that the customer charge and energy charge are currently lower than the COS.
The proposed customer and energy charges are increased annually from 2020 to 2022 in approximately
equal increments to move the customer class gradually towards COS and improve fixed cost recovery.
The wholesale power cost adjustment is zero for proposed 2020 rates and increases annually to reflect
the estimated increases in the cost of purchased power from Platte River.
Figure 4-1 shows the relationship between customer usage and COS. Low energy users have a higher
average COS per kWh than high energy users. This relationship exists because each customer has a similar
fixed cost associated with infrastructure required to connect the customer to the System and meet their
peak demand requirements. High users are able to spread these fixed costs over more energy resulting
in a lower average rate. Increasing the Residential Service customer charge improves fixed cost recovery
and reduces subsidies between customers within the Residential Service customer class.

Figure 4-7 shows the relationship between customer usage and average COS. There is a wide range of
load factors with a significant number of customers clustered between 20% and 50%. Load factor is a
measure of efficiency and is the relationship between monthly demand and monthly energy usage. Higher
load factor reflects a more efficient use of the System. The average monthly demand was approximately
61 kW. Note:the load factor percentages reflected in the figure represent the high end of the 10% range
(i.e., the count of customers shown at 100% load factor represents the customers with load factor
between 90% and 100%).

Section 5
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
In reliance upon the data received by EPPC,the Town,and Platte River,and the analyses described herein,
we conclude and recommend the following.
Conclusions
• Revenue Requirement
• Based on our development of the Revenue Requirement, current and projected costs exceed
current rates. On a System-wide basis, current rate revenues require a 5.9% increase.
■ Cost of Service
• The rates for several customer classes are below their COS, while some are currently above
their COS. However,the customer classes that are currently above their COS are projected to
eventually need rate increases according to the ten-year financial plan.
• Rate Design
• EPPC's rates require modification to better align with the COS and policy objectives of the
Town.
• Although not reflected in the proposed rates in Section 4, the Town could also consider
eliminating the Residential Demand Service customer class, which is currently closed to new
customers. If these roughly 200 customers were moved to the regular Residential Service
customer class, the Town is projected to collect approximately the same revenue annually
from these customers. Eliminating the Residential Demand Service customer class would
simplify the overall rate tariff as well as residential rate options and ease the administrative
burden on EPPC.
Rate Recommendations
Based on our conclusions, and supporting analyses, NewGen recommends the following:
• The Town should adopt rates that reduce subsidization among customer classes. The majority of
EPPC's rate structure should be modified to improve fixed cost recovery in a gradual manner.
■ The Town should adopt the rate plan as proposed in this Report.
■ EPPC should continue to perform a comprehensive COS study every two to three years, or when
aligned with a major change, such as significant changes in projected price for purchased power, a
new large industrial customer, or significant change in System operations.
■ If EPPC is going to allow customers to opt-out of an AMI capable meter a one-time enrollment fee
of $75 and a monthly fee of $20 should be charged to defray the costs of accommodating these
customers (as discussed below).

Section 5
Avoided Cost for Net Meter Customers
Customers with on-site renewable generation (e.g., solar panels) may qualify to be paid for energy
generated, in excess of what the customer uses, annually at what is referred to as the avoided cost. The
avoided cost is determined by the blended cost per kWh for energy supplied by Platte River, less $0.01
per kWh for administrative costs. The costs for EPPC administering this program are likely more than
$0.01 per kWh, but only subtracting $0.01 per kWh allows for a generous interpretation of the avoided
cost.
AMI Opt-Out Fees
As automated metering infrastructure (AMI) or advanced meters become more commonplace with
utilities,many customers are becoming more comfortable and aware of the technology. However,utilities
still face customers who wish to opt out of having an advanced meter on their home. EPPC should
consider fees for customers who choose to opt out of the advanced meter and AMI system, thus
requesting a digital meter without radio transmitting capability that requires manual meter reading and
related customer billing support.
Several utilities have implemented an initial cost to install the non-AMI capable meter, or an "enrollment
fee", related to potential increased cost for the non-AMI meter. Additional monthly fees are typically
assessed related to a meter reader's time, transportation to read the meter, and the cost to upload the
meter read to the customer billing system. Secondary research summarized in Table 5-1 shows one-time
enrollment fees as well as monthly charges to recover the ongoing costs of manual meter reading and
customer data. Secondary research also suggests less than 0.5%of customers will opt-out of an advanced
meter.

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on this secondary research, NewGen recommends that, if the Town is going to allow customers to
opt-out of an AMI capable meter, a one-time enrollment fee of$75 and a monthly fee of$20 should be
charged to defray the costs of accommodating these customers.
Other Work Performed
For other work performed by EPPC, such as meter replacements or line extensions, the developer or
customer must pay for work performed as required to meet their needs and EPPC's standards. Payment
must be made before the work is scheduled. The amount of payment will be estimated based on the cost
of labor, materials, equipment, and overhead.

Fwd: Comments on Electric Rate Hikes
Chuck Bonza <cbonza1 @aol.com> Sat, Feb 29, 2020 at 6:48 AM
To: townclerk@estes.org
For Town Board
I'm a 20 year full time resident in EP and have been through several rate hikes. My comments regarding the
current proposal are:
1. Developers who come and go are still not required to leave behind an amount of money that would fund utility or
infrastructure growth. Full time residents and commercial business carry the load.
2. Commercial businesses are already paying high rates. I assume we are close to including AirBnB and VRBO
operations as commercial so they too will be paying these elevated rates.
3. Smart meters/fiber optics: simple solution -don't do smart meters, I'm not sure I want the electric company
turning down my usage at peak periods anyway.
4. Full time residents bear the brunt of these increases compared to the summer residents and what I understand
to be about 75% of the vacation rental license owners who are non- residents.
5. I am an advocate of zero cost based budgeting each year and would like to see the utilities become more
efficient rather than always just tap the citizens and leave the developers to have their way.
Whether it's water or power or sewage the arguments are all similar each time. Public input is requested but I'm
not aware in my 20 years of any of these requests being modified. The Town Board pretends to listen to the public
but all the requests go through.
I'd like to see our current candidates for Board and Trustees take a public position on this request. My experience
is that they'listen' during the campaign and then sink into the role of rubber stamping these requests and those of
the Town administration.

Comments on Upcoming Electric Rates
Chris Harris <chris.harris51 @outlook.com> Mon, Mar 2, 2020 at 11:20 AM
To: "townclerk@estes.org" <townclerk@estes.org>
This email concerns both water and electric rates charged to those who are summer residents.
I live in Brentwood, Tennessee, a suburb of Nashville. My family has owned a summer residence in EP since 1949
(1061 Bailey Lane). My wife and I are the sole owners now.
We use our residence a maximum of approximately 3 months per year. Our house is strictly a summer residence;
therefore it is not usable the other 9 months each year. Accordingly, there is no usage of water or electricity the
other nine months of the year.
We have always paid the rates for the non-usage time without complaint. However, over the past several years
these rates have increased DRAMATICALLY.
Example, my records reflect the following:
2014 non-usage rate $38.45
2015 non-usage rate $38.65
23139
2016 non-usage rate $50.16
2017 non-usage rate $52.03
2018 non usage rate $52.50
2019 non-usage rate $56.40
2020 non-usage rate $66.17
This represents an approximate 72% increase over a 6 year period of time! (and now you want to raise these rates
even more).
I understand the necessity of charging summer residents a fee for the non-usage periods. However, in my opinion
your fees imposed for non-usage have become unreasonable. And, now you propose to raise the electrical rate. It
appears that you are allocating an unreasonably large portion of the electrical/water costs to summer residents
(For example, last summer while we were using the house, the maximum charge we had was $92; now the charge
for non-usage is $66).
I urge you to reconsider the burden you place on summer residents—those of us who have no vote-and change
your allocation method.
Thank you for your consideration.

Electric Rate Hike?
David Standerfer<dstanderfer@hotmail.com> Thu, Mar 5, 2020 at 4:15 AM
To: "townclerk@estes.org" <townclerk@estes.org>
The Power and Communications Division is proposing a rate increase beginning in June 2020. Do
we really need another rate hike?
Prior to the 2011 rate hike, the base fee (i.e., customer charge)for residential electric service was
$4.70 per month or$56.40 per year. Beginning on January 1, 2022, the proposed base fee for
residential electric service will be $25 per month or$300 per year, an increase of 432% in 10.6 years.
In just 3.3 years, the 2016 rate change increased residential base fees by 239%, which explains why
2019 revenues from residential base fees eclipsed 2016 by approximately$1.5 million.
In 2016, the profit sent to the Town's General Fund was$1,391,740. In 2019, the profit transferred
was $1,772,928, or 27.4% more than in 2016. From 2017 through 2019, the net increase in profits
sent to the General Fund was $975,865. What did the additional $975,865 buy?
As of February 25, 2020, there were 3,922 residential electric customers residing inside the Town of
Estes Park and 4,239 customers residing in unincorporated Larimer County. Nearly 52°/o of electric
customers have no voice at the ballot box, an important point since municipal utilities in Colorado
operate independently of Colorado's Public Utility Commission. The long-held position has been that
citizens, if unhappy with utility rates, can replace their trustees. But electric customers residing in
Glen Haven, Allenspark, and other unincorporated areas cannot vote, and they cannot serve as a
trustee or run for mayor.
Just like in 2016, the 2020 rate announcement is full of"utility" gobbledygook, but nowhere does it
talk about profits, how much will be transferred to the General Fund over the next three years, or how
it will be spent. Why not? Why is the Town so adverse to full disclosure?
The proposed 2020 rate change to the residential base fee will bring in an additional $38,000 in 2020,
$113,000 in 2021, and $188,000 in 2022. Maybe the trustees could reduce the profit transfer from
the Power and Communications Division accordingly and use increasing sales tax revenue to fill the
General Fund gap. After the last three years, electric customers deserve a break.
In the future, wouldn't it be more equitable and fair-minded to increase revenues for"Town" ideas and
projects through "Town" property taxes, rather than profits derived from utility rates?

GENTLEMEN OF TFlE BOARD
I cannot believe the Town of Es#es Park actually believes they are providing cost effective,and�scaily
responsible services to the people of the Estes Par�C area. Most of the private sector bus€ness awners in
the area would agree your departments ran by the Town government are totally out of contrpl when it
comes to spending and hiring new employees. i ha�e witnessed an excessive amount af NEW equipment
the town has acquired just in the past year, and the number of town employees at the electric
de�artment and water department is staggering.
All of this new electric line work and water main replacement work would and shouid be performed by
private sector contractors at a fraction af the cast of equipment owner�hip and employee retainage by
the town.Government Prajects performed by government eniities ha�e never and will never be cost
effective to the public. fxamples of this wauld be Town of Estes Park E�ents Center with tran5portation
hub no one uses, Empty b�ifding but the town keeps t#�e heat and electric on with a stafF of don't know
how many people#o main�ain it. Naw I know you do not mak�any monQy on this you cant e�en make
the mortgage payment ar�it from the re�enue it generates.What kind of sense does tt�at maice?Parking
5#ructure you cannot cf�arge for pa�king in,which remains empty but you have to maintain year round.
Now you feel the need to raise electric and soon water rates due to your irrespon5ible management of
funds. I would love to sit down with the financial manager of the tawn and go over the recnrc�s as�can
tell you from an outsider position you are#lat broke folEcs this means you are in debt and you cannot and
should not be buying new equipment nor hiring new employees as you CAN'T AFFORD IT. No private
sector,for pro�t, business owner would be able to operate their business similar to haw yau are
operating the town departments we would be bar�krupt in 6 rr�onths.
f have operated a successful regional pr€vate sector business based in Estes Park for the past 29 years
and what I and other successful private sector b�siness owners observe is a complete out of control
board, inept financiaf management,and�scally irresponsible operation.
This letter is not just about the raising of elec#rical and water ratQs it has mare to do with the
observance of gorrernment out of cantrol spending at the loca�level.
Perhaps it is time to step hack and look at the averall financial picture you are painting.As I see a
complete recipe for�nancial disaster.

Several municipalities in the State of Colorado have a rate class for those who use life saving medical
equipment 24 hours a day.
Unfortunately, Estes is not one of them.
I am requesting that you reconsider this matter and make adjustments,just as you have the RMNP
Administrators.

S#ateme�t to Town Board on March 'i 0, 2a20
The proposed reside�tia� electric rate incr�ase by adding $9 to the base electric charge
is not needed. The i�crease is not justified.
I have handed to you a few shee#s of information pertaining to the Ligf�t and Power
Budget. I ha�e numbered these pages at �he 6ottom.
Pfease fook a#tF�e Light and Power Fund Fir�al Budget (Page 97 which is my she�t# 1).
T�ere is a transfer to the Generat Fund out of the Light & Power Fund of$1,772,928
after a!I expenses.
Note that the supply source cost i�as remained fairly level from 2017 to 2019.
Any request for addi#ional revenue from custamers should only occur after surplus funds
are used.
According to the Town of Estes Park, Notes to Financial Statemen#s, December 3�,
2018, Note 6 states that annually both the Light and Power and Water Funds subsidizes
thte General F�nd out of surplus re�enues. {my Sheet#2} If the Zight and Power Fund
has a surplus, it does not require t�e additional rate increase to fulfill it's ob�igation to the
customers as sta#ed in the 3etter that accompa�ied the last biiling.
If you look at the Electric Rate Summary, my shee##3, you will see that the base rate in
2a16 was $6.70 or$7.7D depending on rate class and rises steadily to $22.70 and
$26.10 in 2019. This is an Encrease in the base rate of almost 250% - -there's
something wrong with this picturel And now askir�g $9 more!
Ther� are many low income residents who cannot afford these continued, unnecessary
fncreases. This rate increase should be denied.

Report •
To: Honorable Mayor Jirsa
Board of Trustees
Through: Town Administrator Machalek
From: Ryan Barr, EI, Pavement Manager
Greg Muhonen, PE, Public Works Director
Date: March 10, 2020
RE: 2020 Street Improvement Plan & Trail Expansion Program Update
Obiective:
Provide the Board an update on the 2020 Street Improvement and Trail Expansion
Program funded by the 2014 1A Tax Initiative.
Present Situation:
• In 2014, the citizens of Estes Park passed Ballot Issue 1A with a portion of the
proceeds of this tax going towards street improvements and trails expansion in
the Town of Estes Park.
• A goal was set to raise the system-wide Pavement Condition Index (PCI) to
above 70 by the end of the term of the tax in 2024.
• The Public Works Department has evaluated the impact that the projected 1A tax
revenue would have on the system-wide PCI through the year 2024.
• The Public Works Department has continued to expand our trails system in
accordance with the Estes Valley Master Trails Plan.
Proposal:
For 2020 the proposed spending is:
$267,000 — Personnel, Spraypatcher, equipment, etc.
$646,000 — Cleave Street Interim Improvements
$675,000 — Overlays and Large Patches
$250,000 — Chip & Crack Sealing
$70,000 — Engineering Design Costs
$125,000 — Parking Lot Rehabilitation
25149
$2,125,000 — Fall River Trail Improvements ($452,500 from 1A Trails Expansion Fund;
$472,500 from Open Space Fund; $550,000 from Estes Valley Recreation
and Parks District; $400,000 from Land & Water Conservation Fund grant;
and $250,000 from Recreational Trails Program grant)
$683,000 — Graves Avenue Sidewalks ($500,000 from Colorado Safe Routes to School
grant, and $183,000 from 1A Trails Expansion Fund)
Advantaaes:
• This plan continues the work set forth in the original 2024 STIP plan.
• Implementation of this plan will result in improved road conditions throughout
Town, leading to higher citizen and guest satisfaction.
• This plan includes preventive maintenance, which will impact a larger percentage
of the roads in Town as opposed to only focusing on major repairs.
• The entire road system is predicted to exceed an average PCI rating of 70 by the
end of this program. We reached this system-wide average score in 2018 and
will continue to plan cost-effective projects, in order to maintain a PCI above 70
for the duration of the program.
Disadvantaaes:
• Increased construction during the course of the program will produce detours and
delays for motorists during the construction period.
• Although the average system-wide PCI will be above 70 in 2024, current
modeling indicates there will still be some roads with PCI ratings below 70.
Action Recommended:
Review the proposed 2020 Street Improvement Program. Provide comments to confirm
or redirect the allocation of funds outlined in the 2020 plan.
Finance/Resource Impact:
These proposed street improvements are funded through the 1A Street Improvement
Fund (Fund 260). The proposed trail improvements are funded through the 1A Trail
Expansion Fund (Fund 244) and Larimer County Open Space Fund (Fund 220).
Level of Public Interest
The known level of public interest in this item is moderate.

seen either chip seal, patching, or overlays.
In order to reach every street by 2024, we need to touch
approximately 6.5 miles each year.

Report •
To: Honorable Mayor Jirsa
Board of Trustees
Through: Town Administrator Machalek
From: Vanessa Solesbee, Parking & Transit Manager
Greg Muhonen, Public Works Director
Date: March 10, 2020
RE: 2020 Transit Routes Proposal
Obiective:
Provide an overview of proposed 2020 service details for Estes Transit, including staff
and consultant analysis of historical program data, new service offerings, stakeholder
input and alignment with the Town's strategic plan.
Present Situation:
Since 2013, ridership of the Town's free shuttles has decreased every year (except
2016) while annual operating costs have increased.
When the Town Board approved implementation of seasonal paid parking on November
12, 2019, Trustees asked PW staff to be mindful of the impact to both visitors and locals
that are accustomed to free parking in the downtown area. Trustees directed staff to
take a more in-depth look at how Estes Transit service could help provide a viable and
convenient alternative for employees, while also encouraging increased utilization of
both the Parking Structure and Events Complex park-n-ride for longer term parking
stays.
Since the November meeting, PW staff has engaged in a robust analysis of Estes
Transit service, including:
• Ridership data from 2014-2019, with specific emphasis on stop, route and hourly
boarding data from 2019;
• Comprehensive cost of service (per rider);
• Input from two citizen stakeholder groups: Transportation Advisory Board and
Shuttle Committee;
• Shuttle driver exit interviews;
• 2019 ridership surveys;
• 2019 staff input log; and,
• Coordination with key Town and community partners (e.g., Community
Services/Events, Rocky Mountain National Park).
A consultant, SP+ Transportation, assisted with the data analysis and provided
guidance to staff in development of the proposed 2020 Estes Transit service plan. Their
45169
effort was pro-bono and did not have to a cost to the Town beyond staff coordination
time. Their full report is included as an attachment.
Proposal:
PW staff proposes the following transit service adjustments and additions for 2020:
• Expand the total number of days served:
o All Routes except Green (Express):
■ May 23 — June 28 (Sat & Sun only)
■ June 29 — October 4 (daily service)
o Green Route:
■ May 23 — October 4 (Sat & Sun only)
• Adjust the hours served per day:
o Gold, Brown and Blue: 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
o Red (Trolley): 10 a.m. to 11 p.m.
o Green: Noon (12:00 p.m.) to 6:00 p.m.
• Repurpose the underperforming Silver route into a new Express (Green) route
offering.
• Transition from a "fixed route" to a "deviated fixed route" service to better serve
riders of all ages and abilities.
• Move the origination point for all Town routes from the Visitor Center to the
Parking Structure.
A detailed overview of specific stops by route can be found in the PowerPoint
presentation included in the attachments.
Advantaaes:
• When approached incrementally and thoughtfully, transit service improvements
have the potential to reverse the trend of decreasing ridership numbers.
• Retaining 90% of stops from 2019 helps build year-over-year consistency.
• Transitioning the origination location from the Visitor Center to the Parking
Structure will likely improve convenience and safety for riders and pedestrians.
• Adjusting the number of hours served per day will allow Estes Transit to extend
its daily service season through the busy month of September.
Disadvantaaes:
• Removing five stops that were served in 2019 will impact businesses and
residents located near those stops; however, ridership was very low and three of
the five stoops can still be served in the 2020 deviation area.
• Changing the origination location may initially confuse some riders; however,
extensive outreach and education is planned to accompany route changes.
Action Recommended:
PW staff requests Trustee input on the proposed 2020 transit routes.
Finance/Resource Impact:
The 2020 Estes Transit service plan fits within the PW Parking & Transit Division's
existing 2020 budget. No additional resources are requested.
4�170
Level of Public Interest
Public interest in this item is high. Estes Transit is a well-liked service that is used by
visitors and locals. Businesses located at or near stops served by Estes Transit also
have high interest in the discussion about 2020 service plans.

1. Estes Park Transportation Overview 2020
The 2019 Estes Park Transit operation consists of five shuttle routes, Brown, Red, Blue, Gold, and Silver,
which are active on a daily basis from mid-June to mid-September and some major events during the year.
These 5 routes extend into the community to provide transportation access for both tourism and local access
during the peak summer months. This shuttle review offers recommendations to the town of Estes Park to help
increase ridership goals for 2020, alleviate personal motor vehicle traffic, and increase the overall efficiency of
mobility within the town.
2. Current Operation:
Five Estes Park Shuttles operate during peak tourist months to help provide access to local parks and
businesses in the area. Shuttles are leased by Estes Park but operated by Rocky Mountain Transit
Management (RMTM) on a contracted basis. RMTM provides all transportation related services with the
expectation of dispatch and the leasing process. Services are available to the public for free as a way to
promote tourism and give an environmentally friendly option to the community.

3. Kev Findinqs:
The transportation that is operated by Estes Park is overall successful in moving consistent ridership
throughout the city. However, there are different opportunities to improve the service as a whole and increase
availability that have the ability to have a positive impact on the long term overall ridership. With all shuttles
having ADA and wheelchair access, these shuttles are versatile in whom they can pick up. Below are the
findings that we derived from data analysis and research.
Brown Route:
• Route perForms well as it travels to a high need destination.
• Key stops are Elk Meadow, National Park Village and Bond Park which account for 42.7% of the stops
that are made in 2019.
• Between those 3 stops and Visitor Center Start, we cover 75.4% of all ridership at these stops.
• The additions of the Meadow Mini Golf Stop and The Twisted Pine only accounted for 320 riders or
2.3°/a.
• Aside from Elk Meadow, the National Park Village, and Bond Park, all stops on the route should be
drive-bys with the ability to notify the driver of wanting to stop.
Blue Route:
• Shuttle route provides a much needed route for the community with access to many of the apartment
complexes in the area with connections to the downtown area.
• Ridership is consistent throughout the day with peaking hours between 3:OOPM and 5:30PM
• Shuttle size is adequate for the demand and should not be changed.
Red Route:
• The most visible shuttle in terms of transportation being a Trolley style shuttle.
• Peak hours occur between 11:OOAM and 5:30PM with 61.2% of all ridership.
• Highest performing shuttle route with ease of access for on and off access.
Gold Route:
• The Gold shuttle route does a great job of providing transportation to the tourist lodging on the way to
the Fall River Visitor Center.
• Peak hours of service for the route fall between 1:30PM and 5:OOPM with 42% of riders taking the
shuttle during these hours in 2019.
• Gold route service could be utilized on an hourly basis rather than a 30 minute basis with a larger
shuttle on the route and potentially combined with another service.
Silver Route:
• The Silver route is our most viable route for making changes too. With the ridership being] half of what
we see on our next closest service, there is the most room for change.
• The Silver route carries mostly the majority of its passengers being picked up from the visitor center
with 51.4% of the pickups starting from that location and carries 24.3% of the riders to either the
Recreation Center or the Events Park & Ride.
• In total from the event center we had 4147 riders, with 1963 of them getting off at the Rec Center and
the Park and Ride. The other stops combined carried 1960 riders.
• Of that 1960 riders, 519 of them rode from the Dollar General as the heaviest traveled location on this
route.

4. Recommendations
This section details the opportunities that Estes Park has to help improve the overall service for the community
and tourism in its town.
Existing Shuttle Service Recommendations:
1. Shuttle Timing Reallocation
Timing for shuttle services could be cut back to provide cost savings and expand the duration of the
shuttle transportation if desired. From the table below, the majority of ridership is occurring between
10:OOAM and 7:OOPM.
Route Blue Red Gold Brown Silver Average
Percentage 77.8% 89.2% 80.2% 80.9% 81.8°/o 81.98%
By cutting the service from 9:OOAM-9:OOPM (12.0) hours of service to 10:OOAM-7:OOPM (9.0) hours of
service we save (3.0) hours per day per shuttle
3.0 hours x 5 shuttles = 15.0 Hours per day x 79 days = 1185.0 Hours saved over 2019
1185.0 x $81.73 per hour = $96,909.30
With reallocating these funds in the form of adding additional service days to a 9 hour transportation
shift, Estes Park would have 131 individual shuttle Shifts or an additional 21 days of full service
available to add to fit into the current budget.
2. Moving the Blue, Brown, and Silver shuttle routes to start from the Estes Park Event Complex.
By moving the starting location from the Estes Park Visitors Center to the Estes Park Event Complex,
Shuttles will have a considerably safer loading zone. As the Visitors Center has acted as the main hub
while the transportation operation has grown, the infrastructure around the parking lot and building is
not equipped to appropriately handle the number of people traveling through Estes Park.
The Events Complex has upwards of 400 parking stalls that would help to alleviate the parking traffic
that is diverted into town and causes additional traffic from pedestrians attempting to park personal
vehicles. In the future, parking could be monetized and utilized as an additional source of revenue to
assist in the funding of transportation operations.
The move from the Visitor Center to the Event Complex would add an additional 4 to 6 minutes to the
Blue, Brown, Gold and Silver Routes. Route deviations and re-evaluation may need to be done in order
to accommodate the additional time.
3. Silver Route Repurposing.
Currently the Silver Route is the most under, utilized route by almost 4,000 riders annually. When
reviewing the ridership we saw that 8 Days in September and 4th of July account for 1,954 of the 8,110
riders that were reported on this route resulting in an inflated season count. With a ridership of 6,156
io -
� Transportation Analysis for Estes Park 2020
65�gg
��_�i, TRANSPORTATION
over 70 days or a total of 87 passengers per day, we found that the silver route had the largest room for
improvement.
With half of the ridership coming from the Events Center and The Park and Ride for the 2019 season
we feel that the shuttle could be best suited running from the Estes Park Events Complex, to the Estes
Park - Park and Ride, with a drop off at the Estes Park Visitors Center. On the return the stops would
be at the Community Center and finally returning back to the Events Complex. This shuttle loop would
be 12-15 minutes long with traffic in consideration. In order to create a successful and consistent
parking option for riders, the shuttle would be best suited to make no longer than 15 minute loops to
encourage parking at these locations over weekends and holidays.

With the Silver route being dedicated route, it would encourage riders to utilize the parking options just
outside of the downtown strip. They will still be able to catch the Trolley from the Visitors Center
throughout the rest of downtown.
4. Brown Route Adjustments
With the change of the Estes Park Events Complex as the starting location, the Brown Route has
additional opportunities to connect with other RV Parks and provide additional access to the community
while avoiding heavier traffic on Moraine Ave during Peak Season.
We suggest adding in Manor RV and Spruce Lake RV to the loop on the way out to National Park
Village by allowing the shuttle to utilize Prospect and Riverside Drives. A sample of stops would be as
follows:

The anticipated loop time would be 25 to 30 minutes with allocation for the return traffic. By utilizing Prospect
Ave and Riverside Drive, the shuttle passes the Medical Center that was originally a stop on our Silver Route
and can make call out stops there if desired.
5. YMCA/Fish CreeWMary's Lake/Community Reservation Shuttle
When the ask from the community for a shuttle that travels to the YMCA as well as Fish Creek, the best option
for addressing these outlier locations would be to establish a reservation shuttle. This shuttle would require 24-
48 hour notice from locations outside of the normal routes. From an operational perspective, Estes Park would
have the team that currently operates the dispatching of the shuttles, book these reservations. With the need
for a demand shuttle in the community for mobility limited individuals, this shuttle can assist with predetermined
large group moves at billed at a limited cost to the group. From an operations perspective, the driver that
operates breaks could also be the driver that runs the one-off group transportation.

If shuttle reporting is continued to be done by hand, all shuttle data should be entered by loop into an excel
style spreadsheet for historical records. This not only ensures the accuracy of totals for each day but also
allows for proper reports to be made. As a consistently growing service, the data of ridership is imperative to
make adjustments and see where we are being successful.
