Comprehensive Plan - Director Anderson read a May 12, 1992 memo
with regard to a potential conflict of interest, stating he has not
received, nor will he receive, payment from Design Studios West for
downtown design work he is performing in Pueblo. Also introduced
was a memo from Windholz & Associates/Attorneys at Law, addressing
this matter. The Board accepted both memoranda into the record.
Community Development Director Stamey stated the Town's 1992
planning budget includes $30,000 to begin Phase I of a new
Comprehensive Plan for the Town of Estes Park. Director Stamey
noted that four qualified consulting firms were interviewed for
this project and staff recommended the selection of Design Studios
West (DSW). The Planning Commission has favorably recommended to
the Town Board that DSW with Don Brandes, Principal; John Bush,
Principal; and John Lanterman, Senior Associate as the project
team, be engaged as consultant to assist with development of Phase
I of the Comprehensive Plan beginning in June 1992. Phase I will
involve community visioning, values, identification and public
input meetings to gather this information. Director Stamey stated
he would like to see a joint effort between the Town, Planning
Commission and EPURA on Phase II, involving design elements,
traffic and economic components, and planning documents. Phase II
is anticipated to be completed in the Fall of 1993.
