EVRPD MASTER PLAN FOR STANLEY PARK - TOWN APPROVAL REOUEST BY EVRPD
Stan Gengler, EVRPD Director, requested Town approval of the
proposed long range Stanley Park Master Development Plan,
addressing redevelopment needs of Stanley Park. Information was
gathered for the Plan through community questionnaires, interviews
with Park users and government agencies, and public open houses.
Paul Kuna, Gun Club representative, expressed concern that the Gun
Club would be eliminated. Police Chief Repola stressed the need
for continued access to the Gun Club not only for recreational use
but for officer training. Gengler noted that the Gun Club is not
included in the Plan because it is not considered a high priority.
The District will, however, work with the Gun Club to assure
continued access throughout redevelopment. Administrator Klaphake
added that a new building will be required in the future because of
Code restrictions, and discussing the future needs of the Gun Club
now will allow a smooth transition during the redevelopment
process. James Durward, LP Scottish Highland Festival, commended
the Recreation District for the proposed redevelopment; however, he
expressed concern regarding the interior fencing surrounding the
ball fields and the shortage of bathrooms. Gengler explained that
the additional fencing will be on the outside wing areas and will
be installed with removable sections and gates to allow easy access
to the entire area. Bathrooms will be constructed near the shelter
in addition to the current bathrooms located near the baseball
field. Utility problems and maintenance issues restrict the number
of bathrooms that can be constructed. The Committee recommends
approval of the EVRPD Master Plan for Stanley Park, with the
following conditions:
1. The Gun Club will be relocated prior to destruction of
the present building.
2. Dr. Durward's concerns regarding fencing and bathroom
facilities be considered.
3. The Plan remain flexible to consider other concerns that
may arise.
Gengler reported that funds are currently available to construct
the parking lot in the southeast corner of the Park. The Committee
recommends that construction of the southeast parking lot proceed
as requested by Director Gengler.
ANNUAL SLURRY SEAL PROJECT - REQUEST APPROVAL TO PROCEED
Manager Sievers explained that the 1997 budget contains $200,000
for the annual Street Improvement Project; $47,000 has been
allocated for the rock removal on Hwy. 34 at Castle Mountain Rd.
The requested Slurry Seal provides added traction, ultraviolet
protection, water proofing and minor rut filling at about one-third
the cost of an overlay. Quality Resurfacing Co. of Commerce City
has provided the Town with material and service for three years.
A list of 20 streets proposed to receive the Slurry Seal was
presented, totaling 50,000 square yards. The Committee recommends
approval of a contract to Quality Resurfacing Co. for $50,000 to
place Slurry Seal on the proposed streets. This work will proceed
in mid -June.

RETROFIT DUMP TRUCK FRONT END - REQUEST RETROACTIVE APPROVAL
Administrator Klaphake explained the front end retrofit required
Board approval, but due to time constraints, Klaphake authorized
this work, totaling $12,319. Manager Sievers explained this is a
1986 truck, which was more cost effective to fix rather than
replace. The Committee recommends approval of the International
Harvester dump truck front end retrofit, totaling $12,319.
