Application for the new Childrens Center building to the Larimer

6. Stanley Park Indoor Arena. Administrator Klaphake reported
that, in conjunction with the Town Attorney and Financial
Advisor (Boettcher), alternative methods of financing the indoor
arena were researched. Initially, it was anticipated the Town
would use the Building Authority to finance the arena; however,
a "reverter clause" was found to exist in the deed from F. O.
Stanley regarding use of Stanley Park grounds. Town Attorney
White clarified the reversionary clause, adding that the title
must be cleared to allow the Town to manage Stanley Park in a
reasonable fashion with regard to types of financing being used
in municipal projects. Trustee Habecker commented that the
scope of the grounds has changed, perhaps the Stanley Park
Master Plan should be reviewed/updated, and that possibly 1992
should be spent in a planning phase. Administrator Klaphake
stated that the funds for moving the barns will remain in the
1992 Budget, and that such items as the Master Plan and design
be referred to the Stanley Park Committee for their
consideration. The Attorney also explained that any reference
to "condemnation" would affect the reverter clause only (clear
the title) --land is not being included in this action. It was
moved and seconded (Garrett/Aldrich) (1) the Town Attorney be
authorised to initiate the process to clear the title, (2) all
consultant contracts and moving of barns be set aside until the
determination on the method of financing for the arena project
is made, and it passed unanimously.
7. Set Public Hearing for Consideration of New Electric Rate
Structure. It was moved and seconded (Aldrich/Dickinson)
December 10, 1991 be set for the public hearing to consider a
new electric rate structure, and it passed unanimously.
Following completion of all agenda items, Mayor Dannels requested
comments from the audience. There being none, Administrator Klaphake
reported that in a letter dated October 21, 1991, the National Park
Service denied the permit to operate the ski area for the 91/92 season.
There being no further business, Mayor Dannels adjourned the meeting at
8:15 P.M.
