A tent will be erected June 7th with removal of same June loth. The festival will include music contests and concerts and an arts and crafts fair. The Committee recommends approval of the Dulcimer Festival request to use Parking Lot #1 June 8th and 9th, 1985, adhering to the policy established in 1984 whereby a fee of $25.00/day will be assessed. MUNICIPAL BUILDING - REVIEW OF COST ESTIMATE FOR POLICE DEPART- MENT REMODEL: Upon the Committee's February 21, 1985 request, Public Works Director Widmer obtained a cost estimate to create a new office for the Police Department with the estimate being approximately $6,000. Discussion followed with the Committee recommending Public Works Director Widmer be authorized to obtain bids for construction of a new office for the Police Department and returning to the Committee for review. MUNICIPAL BUILDING - ADDITIONAL OFFICE SPACE: A meeting was held with Wayne Lawlor/Larimer County, Town Admin- istrator Hill and Public Works Director Widmer regarding future office space needs of Larimer County. The County's requirements at this time total 5,000 gross square feet. Larimer County has hired an architectural planning firm (Interplan) to prepare a Feasibility Study for the offices for the entire county. In an effort to address departmental growth, space allocation to accommodate this growth, and options that may be considered for other agencies, Director Widmer obtained a proposal from Inter - plan for a "not to exceed" fee of $7,500. Following discussion, the Committee recommends Public Works Director Widmer attempt to negotiate an agreement with Interplan with a "not to exceed" contract amount of approximately $3 - 4,000 and return to the Committee for their review. FISH HATCHERY - REPLACEMENT OF VEHICLE BRIDGE: Upon the Committee's request of December 20, 1984, Public Works Director Widmer pursued replacement of the vehicle bridge located on the Fish Hatchery property which was lost due to the Lawn Lake Flood. Director Widmer presented a letter dated March 6, 1985 submitted by Leonard A. Boulas, the Governor's Authorized Rep- resentative/Division of Disaster Emergency Services advising that the position of the Federal Emergency Management Association is that replacing this bridge would not be justified. The Committee recommends Director Widmer formally request replacement of the bridge.
