J Public Safety Committee
November 17, 1994
Committee: Chairman Gillette, Trustees Dekker and Marshall
Attending: All
Also Attending: Town Administrator Klaphake, Chief Racine, and
Deputy Clerk Kuehl

Chairman Gillette called the meeting to order at 8:02 a.m.
POLICE DEPARTMENT
Promotion/Randy Repola: Chief Racine presented Randy Repola with
a Sergeant's badge in honor of his promotion. Sergeant Repola was
congratulated by the Committee for his 71 years as a police officer
in Estes Park.
Victim's Assistance: Victim's Assistance Coordinator Goelz
presented a packet describing the victim's assistance program. The
local program works in conjunction with the Larimer County
Sheriff's Department. Grants have provided funding for the initial
program; however, it becomes the responsibility of each locality to
acquire future funding. Coordinator Goelz presented a proposal
that would include a surcharge on each fine/ticket issued. Recent
changes in Municipal Court procedures could possibly help the
victim's assistance program as most cases will be written into
municipal court in lieu of county court. The Committee agreed that
the Victim's Assistance Program should be continued and recommends
that Attorney White clarify TABOR restrictions on a plan to raise
funds to continue the Victim's Assistance Program, and that the
Committee discuss this matter further at a future meeting.
Chairman Gillette thanked Coordinator Goelz for bringing this
important issue to the attention of the Committee. Administrator
Klaphake added that the possibility of obtaining liability and
workman's compensation for active volunteers is being discussed.
Coordinator Goelz announced her office, which is presently in Room
104, may be relocated to second floor in the future.
FIRE DEPARTMENT
