The Committee reviewed the existing street and bridge condi- tions, and expected maintenance. Although some portions of the streets could be redesigned, several variances would still be necessary for street grades, cul-de-sac lengths and radii, and pavement widths. Based on the present valuation of Fall River Estates, the amount of property tax revenues for the Town would be minimal. The Committee felt the maintenance costs of the subdivision would be excessive and the benefits to be derived could not justify annexation at this time. Mr. Brown suggested alternative methods whereby the Fall River Estates property owners would contribute towards maintenance. He agreed to contact Del Lienemann regarding such alternatives and would submit a proposal to the Town at a later date. 1981 STREET IMPROVEMENTS: The Committee reviewed and recommends the 1981 street improvements as listed on the attachments. ADDITIONAL PARKING SPACES: The Committee reviewed the Public Safety Committee's recommendations of March 5, 1981 regarding additional parking spaces at several loca- tions. The Committee felt that converting the entire grass area to parking spaces at the southeast corner of the Athletic Field parking lot would create a traffic safety hazard between cars parking and those entering and exiting the parking lot. The Committee recommends only one additional parking space be created at that location and that the two grass peninsulas at the north end of the parking lot be converted to parking spaces. The Committee felt that converting the grass area in the Municipal Building parking lot to parking spaces would create a conflict with the deposit box. The Committee recommends only the eastern half of the grass island be converted to parking spaces. The Committee also recommends that 10 - 12 spaces be developed on the east side of MacGregor Avenue along the Birch Addition. VIRGINIA DRIVE SIDEWALK: Public Works Director Widmer reported that he had not received proposed sidewalk, curb and gutter designs from the property owners along Virginia Drive as requested by the Committee at its January 22nd meeting. The Committee directed the Public Works Director to send reminders of this requirement to the appropriate property owners. MUNICIPAL BUILDING LOBBY FURNITURE: $2,000 was budgeted for the purchase of additional furniture for the Municipal Building lobby. Three couches and a chair can be purchased for $1921 or four couches for $2100. The Committee recommends pur- chasing the four couches. TRASH CONTAINERS: The Public Works Director reported that he had researched several kinds BRADFORD PUBLISHING CO., DENVER RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS Public Works Committee - March 19, 1981 - Page 2 of trash containers to replace those presently on the poles in the downtown area. He showed the Committee a green and white high impact plastic container which uses a key system to prevent vandalism. The Committee recommends purchasing thirty containers @ $48 each for the downtown area and parking lots. NEW TRUCK LIFT PURCHASE: The Committee studied the purchase of a new 24,000 pound capacity truck lift to replace the existing hoist in the Public Works shop. The new hoist will cost $6750 and $2750 to remove the old hoist. Additional costs in installation may be incurred if extra excavation is required. The Committee recommends purchasing the new hoist and selling the old one. NEW 4WD PICKUP: The Committee authorized the Public Works Director to obtain bids for a new 4WD pickup. STANLEY PARK SEWER: The Upper Thompson Sanitation District has offered to share the cost of extending the sewer from Fish Creek Road to serve Stanley Park and the school complex. The estimated cost is a little over $115,000. Under UTSD's proposal, they would provide $63,000 with $52,000 coming from the Town and school together. If the Town and school split their share, the Town's cost would be $26,000. There would be an additional expense of approximately $3,500 to extend and connect our service line to the main line. There would be no rebate policy in effect under the cost sharing approach outlined above. If the school decides to connect at the east end of their property instead of the west end, their participation in the costs would be lower, with the Town's share becoming about $39,000 instead of $26,000. The Town's service charges,based on last summer's water usage, would be $2,175 per year. In addition, the Town's share of the bonded in- debtedness of the district would be $916 in 1982 with each year'spay- ment increasing until the last payment of $1,361 is made in 1993. The bonded indebtedness payments could be made in a lump sum payment of $10,543.50 instead of spreading the payments over the years. The lump sum payment would save about $3,500. In summary: Town's share of construction Service line extension $26,000 $ 3,500 $29,500 or $39,000 $ 3,500 $42,500 Yearly fees - Service charge = $87/EDU x 25EDU $ 2,175 Bond Indebtedness = (25/7500) xbond payments 916 in 1982 Total Yearly Charge (1982) $ 3,091 The Committee recommends pursuing the construction of this sewer line to serve Stanley Park. CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICT RESOLUTION RECOMMENDATIONS: The Committee decided to schedule a special meeting to consider in detail the Central Business District Resolution Recommendations. STANLEY PARK REST ROOM REMODELING: Jack Miller presented a plan to remodel the bathroom and shower facili- ties at Stanley Park. The Horse Show and Rodeo Committee plans to use the $10,000 budgeted for 1981 capital improvements for the remodeling BRADFORD PUBLISHING CO.. DENVER RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS Public Works Committee - March 19, 1981 - Page 3 and any overrun will be covered by Horse Show and Rodeo Committee funds. The Committee recommends obtaining bids for the remodeling project. REPORTS: Staff members met with the architect of the Municipal Building who will be submitting ideas for window modifications to reduce building heat loss soon. A letter dated March 5, 1981 was received from the President of the Lions Club of Estes Park strongly endorsing the "Long Range Study for Stanley Park". The new street sweeper should be delivered during the week of April 6th. Approximately 3,000 cubic yards of road material have been accumulated from the screening process at the Fall River water tank site. There being no further business, the meeting adjourned.
