Meeting held in the Executive Board Room of the Estes Park Events Center on the 1st day of June, 2017. Present: Dewain Lockwood Vicki Papineau Ronna Boles Carlie Bangs Terry Rustin (via phone) Celine Lebeau Also Present: Travis Machalek, Assistant Town Administrator Greg Muhonen, Director of Public Works Brian Berg, Parks Division Supervisor Kevin McEachern, Operations Manager Megan Van Hoozer, Public Works Administrative Assistant Randy Hunt, Director of Community Development Absent: Merle Moore Scott Miller, Student Advisor Cydney Springer, Estes Arts District Chair Lebeau called the meeting to order at 8:30 a.m. PUBLIC COMMENT No public comment. GENERAL BUSINESS It was moved and seconded (Lockwood/Bangs) to approve the April meeting minutes and the motion passed unanimously. RECOMMENDED PLANT LISTING – EVDC AMENDMENT Randy Hunt, Director of Community Development, discussed the proposed amendments to the Estes Valley Development Code related to the Preferred Plant Listing. Moving forward, the Community Development Department would allow administrative approval as the plant listing requires changes. The new process would allow changes to take place without going through the lengthy process of being presented to and approved by the Community Development/Community Services (CDCS) committee as well as the Town Board which could take two to three months. Member Boles suggested to Director Hunt that the language within the code be modified for a more clear understanding by the average citizen. Member Papineau suggested correcting inaccurate verbiage contained in the code related to the review standards for the vegetation being introduced into any wildlife habitat area. Director Hunt stated there would be future meetings with Larimer County regarding the wildlife areas. At that time all pertinent development code language would be revisited and modified as necessary. AIPP: MUSEUM TEMPORARY SIDEWALK ART PROPOSAL Parks Advisory Board – June 1, 2017 – Page 2 Travis Machalek, Assistant Town Administrator (ATA), presented the proposal for the Museum’s request to apply temporary sidewalk art throughout 2017 in various locations. The art medium being used would be temporary spray chalk. Various historic quotes were provided as a sampling of what would be applied to the sidewalks. The application method would be utilizing Mylar stencils for maximum clarity, measuring no larger than 20” x 30”. When space allows the Museum logo will accompany the quotes. Member Boles suggested the application name, “Non-Permanent Sidewalk/Street/Parking Lot/Trail Art Application” be made more clear or be separated into different ordinances to allow individual artists to understand which board, whether Parks Advisory Board or Transportation Advisory Board will need to approve or deny the application. ATA Machalek will return to the board with appropriate modifications to the application for approval by the PAB. Quality Control is a critical component of temporary markings. Derek Fortini, Museum Director, and Alicia Rochambeau, Museum Curator of Education, will monitor the art to ensure continued legibility. Once art becomes illegible, the Museum will be required to remove or replace the art within 24 hours. It was determined this would be a condition of the art approval. A motion was made and seconded to approve the historic quotes selected for temporary sidewalk art, with conditions (Boles/Bangs). All members were in favor. OTHER BUSINESS With no other business to discuss, Chair Lebeau adjourned the meeting at 9:26 a.m.
