Mr.Claude Roberts appeared before the Street Committee and submitted a
request for permission to use a portion of the street “Davis St.”adjoining
his property on the east (lot 39,Buenna Vista Terrace Addition).The
Committee reviewed the request and because of no apparent future need of
the above mentioned street,recommend to the Board of Trustees of the Town
of Estes Park that the Town enter into a long term lease (25 years)with
Mr.Roberts for the above mentioned property.This lease will be at a
yearly rate of $1.00.Mr.Roberts will pay all costs including engineering,
legal and publication.
Mr.C.I.Herzog appeared before the Committee and requested the Town of
Estes Park vacate that portion of the street named “Big Horn Drive”that is
now being used by Mr.Herzog as a portion of his residential lot.In return
for the vacated street,Mr.Herzog will purchase and deed to the Town of Estes
Park sufficient property from Mrs.Overstag,Lewiston Cottages and himself to
enable the Town to maintain a 40’street in this area.After considerable
discussion with the Town Engineer and the Street Superintendent,the Committee
recommends the above trade as drawn on a plat by Mr.Van Horn,Town Engineer.
Mr.Herzog will pay all costs including engineering,legal and publication.
Mr.Byron Graves and Mr.Robert Clark,owners of Lots 22,23,and 12 White
Meadow View Place Addition,request the Town of Estes Park vacate the present
15’street right of way as it now crosses the above mentioned properties.In
return for the vacated street right of way,Mr.Graves and Mr.Clark will deed
to the Town of Estes Park a 30’street right of way to be located near the
present street location.The above mentioned rights of way are drawn on a
plat submitted this date by Mr.Van Horn.Mr.Graves and Mr.Clark will pay
all costs including engineering,legal and publication.
The Committee discussed the procedure of bidding the annual street improvements.
In view of the fact that the Town has only been able to obtain one bid for the
past several years,the Committee recommends to the Board of Trustees that they
be given the authority to negotiate this year’s street improvements.If the
Committee found a savings would not result from this type of negotiation,
bids would be issued.
The Committee instructed the Town Engineer to establish the Dunraven Street
center line.
The Street Superintendent estimated the County’s share of laying a 1½”
asphalt mat on the corner of Crags Drive and East Riverside Drive would be
about $1,414.74.The Larimer County Commissioners are to be contacted as to
how they wish the arrangements to be made on the above paving.
There being no further business,the meeting adjourned.
