RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
Public Safety Committee
May 26, 1977
Committee: Chairman Burgess, Trustees Petrocine and Sutter
Attending: Chairman Burgess, Trustees Petrocine and Sutter
Also Attending: Town Administrator Hill, Chief of Police Ault
Absent: None
LOADING ZONES & TOW AWAY ZONES:
The problem of adequate enforcement of the loading zones from 7:00 A.M.
to Noon was discussed at great length. The Committee recommends estab-
lishing tow away zones in the existing loading zones and installing the
appropriate signs upon confirmation of the legality of establishing such
tow away zones within the Town of Estes Park.
The Committee also recommends establishing loading zones on Moraine Ave-
nue in front of the Park Theatre and on Rockwell Street behind the Park
Center Mall shops located adjacent to Park Theatre.
STANLEY AVENUE - PARKING:
The Committee discussed the traffic safety hazard of the parking allowed
on the north side of Stanley Avenue near its intersection (south) with
Highway 7. The narrowness of the street along with the sharp curve and
close proximity: of several trees contribute to the safety hazard. Pre-
sently parking is prohibited on the south side of the street. The Com-
mittee recommends prohibiting parking along the north side of Stanley
Avenue for 200' from its intersection (south) with Highway 7.
REPORTS:
MANPOWER REPLACEMENT - Chief Ault reported that should a strike or
similar situation arise in the Police Department, manpower could
be obtained immediately from various cities through an existing
cooperative agreement. If needed, nine officers could arrive within
an hour and would be covered under the Town's insurance policy.
NOISE CONTROL - As directed by the Public Safety Committee at its
January 24, 1977 meeting, Police Chief Ault reported that he is
currently conducting noise control tests.
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.
