1990 STREET IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM - HOLIDAY LANE CUL-DE-SAC:
Staff advised that the 1990 Street Improvement Program included the
installation of a 50' diameter cul-de-sac located at the eastern edge of
Holiday Lane. This street and Lots 7 and 8 Esquire Acres abut the 18-hole
golf course. Installation of the cul-de-sac was based upon traffic safety,
snow removal efforts, and convenience to motorists. A fence, now owned by
Sidney Hoskins (Lot 8/1240 Holiday Lane) is located in the street right-of-
way and causes snowplows and private vehicles to use other private
driveways to turn -around. Staff is also proposing a 6' fence opening to
provide public access to the golf course. Sidney Hoskins addressed the
Committee and stated he had no objection to the proposed 6' opening;
however, in his opinion it will increase traffic and speed. In addition,
Mr. Hoskins stated the cul-de-sac will not alleviate the backing -up
movement for snowplows, and he questioned whether alternatives to the cul-
de-sac could be considered. Joe Murphree (1224 Holiday Lane) and Florence
Gravem (1160 Holiday Lane) also expressed their objection based upon
drainage, increased traffic, and child safety concerns. Staff reported
that a "hammer -head" -shaped lane could be constructed, however, it would
necessitate more space than the cul-de-sac and would not alleviate the
backing -up movement. Following discussion and confirmation that a survey
would be prepared clearly defining affected property pins, and that the
drainage concern wotip be corrected if the cul-de-sac was installed, the
Committee recommends -sta proceed with thc i-ns-t 1 a i o : of thc cul-dc sac' .

WEST RIVERSIDE PARK, PHASE IV - REQUEST AUTHORIZATION TO REMOVE STRUCTURES:
Staff reported that the Town has received a grant in the amount of $60,000
for the construction of the aforestated park, and the Town is now in
receipt of the property. Construction will begin in 1991 and must be
completed within one (1) year. In preparation for construction, staff
requested authorization to bid removal of all structures (primary house, 3
cabins, and a garage/shed). Interest has been expressed in moving the
primary house. Following discussion, the Committee recommends approval of
the request to bid demolition/removal of the structures, directing staff to
clarify the issue of when a structure is moved and placed inside Town
Limits whether it must be brought up to code.
NOTE: Upon discussion with the Building Official following this meeting,
staff confirmed a structure must in fact be brought up to code when removed
and placed inside Town Limits. x'r. B,'ty�R,

budget, and references for low bidders have been verified. Staff also
requested authorization to issue the low bidders their "Notice of Award"
following the meeting in lieu of after the Town Board meeting 9/25. The
Committee recommends the Town accept the low bids submitted by BT
Construction ($159,225, $146,636, and $273,817) and Golden Company
($126,334) and that staff be authorized to proceed in lieu of delaying the
projects until 9/25/90. Completion date for all projects is December 1,
1990, and all affected property owners will be notified prior to
construction.
STANLEY AVENUE DRAINAGE - REVIEW OF BIDS:
Campbell -Kearney Excavating, Estes Park, submitted the only bid for this
project which consists of installing two catch basins and culvert to
correct a drainage problem. Staff has negotiated a price of $11,043 which
is slightly over budget. Discussion followed, with the Committee
recommending acceptance of the bid in the amount of $11,043 submitted by
Campbell -Kearney.
STREET EOUIPMENT - REVIEW OF BIDS:
The Committee reviewed the following bids for a loader -mounted snowblower:
Booth -Rouse Equipment, Commerce City $25,005
MacDonald Equipment, Commerce City 35,226
$985.00 will be added to the low bid, resulting in a total bid price of
$25,990. This equipment should provide a cost efficiency for labor and
will have additional uses beyond snow removal efforts. The Committee
recommends acceptance of the total low bid in the amount of $25,990
submitted by Booth -Rouse.
