FORWARD ESTES PARK FOUNDATION - REQUEST FOR FUNDING. Updating the Committee on the Foundation's proposed Housing Study, Eric Blackhurst reported that Rosall Remmen and Cares, have verbally been obtained (at a cost of approximately $9,200 - $10,500), and they will begin collecting data in the near future. Funding has been committed by the Rocky Mountain National Park, Board of Realtors, Estes Park Bank, and the Foundation itself. EPURA has obligated $1,500 if the fund raising effort reaches $8,500. Mr. Blackhurst formally requested the Town to donate $500 from the PRPA Economic Development funds. The Foundation will also seek funds from the PSCo., U. S. West, and the Larimer County Department of Human Development. Administrator Klaphake commented that a recent newspaper headline that stated EPURA was "to study housing" was incorrect, that in actuality, the Forward Estes Park Foundation was commissioning the study. Staff con­ firmed adequate funds were in the Budget for this expenditure, and the Committee recommends the Foundation's request for $500 for the housing study be approved. REPORTS.
