BENVER RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS Stanley Park Committee April 25, 1983 Committee: Chairman Wagner, Trustees Dannels and Wood Attending: All Also Attending: Mayor Tregent, Public Works Director Widmer, Manager Bob Scott, Clerk Jensen, several members of the Horse Show and Rodeo Committee REQUEST FROM H S & R REGARDING THE EVENT CENTER (INDOOR ARENA): Mr. Rick Dill, representing the Horse Show and Rodeo Committee, appeared before the Committee to request that Clint Fairchild be retained to do Pre -design architectural work for a multi- purpose events center at Stanley Park. Mr. Fairchild, architect, explained the Horse Show and Rodeo Committee would like to compare alternative design structures for Stanley Park, such as a dome structure or fabric structure (which could be used year around), as compared to the seasonal metal buildings proposed by Browne, Bortz and Coddington. The building size could be from 170 feet by 300 feet to 175 feet by 340 feet. Clint Fairchild stated that he felt they could put up a year -around multi -purpose event center and do it at a reasonable cost. His service would include pre - design architectural services, some site analysis, economic feasibility, etc. He would expand upon the BBC Study by looking at different types of construction and methods of construction. Rick Dill suggested a public hearing after the plan is received to determine what the majority of people in Estes Park want. If they want the events center, then the Town needs to look at the financial aspects. If they do not - the .project should be dropped. Rick Dill stated that if the Town pursued the pre -design services and public hearing, the Horse Show and Rodeo Committee would feel that the Town had looked into all the alternatives for an indoor arena at Stanley Park. The Committee stated that should a community events structure be built, there would need to be clarification of priorities, i.e. horse functions would take precedence over other community functions, etc. The cost of the pre -design architectural services, as proposed, would be $3,995.00. Mr. Fairchild stated his services would include input from community groups. He stated that he would also relate his findings back to the BBC study. It would take approximately two months or sixty days to do the report. A lengthy discussion followed.
