FISH HATCHERY PROPERTY - REVIEW OF PROPOSED REGRADING:
Public Works Director Widmer advised the Division of Wildlife had
submitted a drawing for the regrading project located on the Fish
Hatchery Property owned by the Town. The drawing identified the
project with regard to grading of the ponds, relocating the
stream to its original location, and the channel from the pond in
the north corner to the river. The drawing did not address
seeding and riprap areas. The Division requested a letter
approving the drawing. The Committee recommends Director Widmer
be authorized to transmit a letter of approval, inquiring as to
the areas requiring seeding and riprap.
ARAPAHO MEADOWS TOPOGRAPHICAL MAPPING - JOINT PROPOSAL:
Public Works Director Widmer informed the Committee he had been
in contact with Kucera and Associates concerning topographical
mapping of the north 1 of Section 2 which includes the proposed
location of the Mary's Lake Water Treatment Plant and the Luce
property. A preliminary cost estimate is $3,000. On a joint
cost -share agreement, the Town would pay 75% and Dr. Luce would
pay the remaining 25%. The Committee recommends proceeding with
the 75/25% joint Agreement between Dr. Luce and the Town.
GOLF COURSE PROPERTY - REQUEST TO REVIEW BOUNDARY:
In a letter dated August 12, 1985, the Estes Valley Recreation
and Park District requested the Town clarify the east boundary of
the Golf Course Property. The Committee recommends Director
Widmer be authorized to contact Town Attorney White, compile all
pertinent information, and return to the Committee for their
review.
WIEST PARKING LOT - REQUEST TO INSTALL SIGN TO PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE:
Janice Jackson, King's Casuals, has requested the Town install a
sign located in the Wiest Parking Lot indicating that the bridge
crosses into Peacock Park from the parking lot. Existing trees
conceal the bridge at this time. In the September 15, 1985
meeting of the Urban Renewal Authority, installation of the sign
was not objectionable; however, they felt the cost incurred in
installing the sign would be the responsibility of the Town not
the Urban Renewal Authority. Discussion followed with the
Committee recommending the request be denied; however, the Public
Works Department will be instructed to trim the trees currently
concealing the bridge.
SIDEWALK CLEANING - DISCUSSION:
The Committee discussed the lack of sidewalk cleaning in the
Streetscape area. The Committee recommends initiating the
process to amend Section 12 Streets and Sidewalks of the Munici-
pal Code to include sidewalk cleaning along with removal of snow
and ice.
REPORTS:
VocTech will be dedicating the "equipment training course" on
September 24, 1985; Public Works Director Widmer and Mayor
Dannels will be attending.
Striping of the Senior Citizens' Center parking lot has been
completed.
