There were no communications.
UNFINISHED BUSINESS:
Readoption of 1985 EPURA Budget Resolution - Due to a technical error in
the accountant's office, the bond payment figure has now been put under
the restricted fund rather than the general fund. It was moved and
seconded (Pohl-Hill) that Resolution 26 (A Resolution of the Estes Park
Urban Renewal Authority Adopting the Budget for 1985) be adopted with
the inclusion of Section 4, repealing Resolution 25. Motion carried.
Resolution adopted.
NEW BUSINESS:
Director Anderson called for an Executive Session following the Board
meeting to discuss property acquisition and contractors for Streetscape II
COMMITTEES:
Development - Commissioner Moss said a Development Committee meeting was
held on December 18 and the following items were discussed:
1. The committee would like the Board's comments regarding submitted
changes to the review process which were distributed to the
Board a month ago. The Board accepted the committee's recommended
changes.
2. The committee would like the Board's comments regarding the
proposed criteria for development in the pedestrian C-1 zone
(downtown area) which was distributed to the Board two weeks
ago. The Board accepted the committee's recommended criteria.
3. Confluence Park - Director Anderson and Commissioner Moss met with
Jim Windholz, Downing/Leach and Carley Capital Group last week.
The developers have begun the process for an economic analysis of
Confluence Park. EPURA has an agreement to negotiate and, over
the next few months, will be narrowing down points of negotiation.
The Development Committee recommended to the Board that EPURA hire
a negotiator for these negotiations. Moss asked if EPURA should
proceed to contract with an individual who might be interested in
serving as negotiator for the URA. Authority was given by the
Board to proceed with this. Moss will contact interested
individuals, obtain resumes and independent analyses from each
and contact Kirchner-Moore who will review same and work with
whomever is chosen to negotiate with the developer.

4. Bob Joseph is working on guidelines for downtown redevelopment.
5. The guidelines as written by Town Planner Stamey regarding the
Stanley Hotel area (historic designation) elicited comments from
the committee which were given to Stamey after the December 18
meeting.
6. The Development Committee will meet on the second and fourth
Tuesdays of each month in order to provide ample time to prepare
comments, recommendations, etc. to the Board for their review
before a regularly scheduled URA Board meeting.
Commissioner Moss asked if the URA planned to attend the December 20
meeting of the Town and Land Use Commission and, if so, would EPURA have
any opinion or statement to make? It was decided to take this matter
up in Executive Session after the Board meeting.
Circulation - Traffic & Parking - Director Anderson is in the process
of preparing a list of potential parking locations in the downtown area
for presentation to the Board.
Capital Improvements - Streetscape - Discussion regarding a contractor
for Streetscape II will be held in Executive Session, following the Board
meeting.
Planning Commission Liaison - Commissioner Moss reported that the CJL
Subdivision was discussed and action taken. The affected property owners
have offered a 10' easement from the river at the back of their properties
to be used for pedestrian and bicycle use. The owners are concerned about
flood-related issues and Jim Crain, one of the property owners, indicated
that there is a film available for viewing by interested parties regarding
flood-related measures for towns and cities. Chairman Phares suggested
Moss look into procurement and viewing of this film.
STAFF;
Director Anderson asked for a poll of the Board regarding the January 2,
1985 scheduled URA Board meeting, and, whether it should be postponed
until January 9 due to the fact that some board members will not be
present, and, Anderson will be on jury duty. It was decided to announce
the meeting date at a later time due to the fact that some Board members
have conflicts with either January 2 or January 9.
Bob Joseph gave an update on the facade manual. Steve Cash spent two
days last week in Estes Park, pulling together graphics for this manual,
and, met with Steve Crawford. Cash has taken care of retaining the
funding beyond December until April 1985. Hopefully, the manual will
be completed in January.
Joseph indicated the facade slide show would be available soon to
interested merchants. Joseph met with Nore Winter of Downing/Leach on
December 18 to discuss research and resources for development standard
guidelines.
Attorney Windholz suggested that prior to requesting RFP's from negotiators,
it would be helpful to send each individual a summary from EPURA of what
the Authority expects in the way of an independent analysis.
Meeting adjourned to Executive Session.
Meeting reconvened at 11:30 a.m.
