The Judge found EPURA had acted properly in its condemna- tion efforts. Both parties have agreed to execute a "stipu- lation" that, in summary, confirms the amount of funds to be deposited by EPURA with the Court, and, grants title of the property to EPURA. An RFP has been prepared for development of the Boyd property. The RFP includes a requirement that the developer cater to the year-round economy of Estes Park. Control of such development could be accomplished by a covenant or reverter clause. A requirement could also be attached stipulating any proposed change in use would be subject to the EPURA review process. Director Anderson will supply a copy of the RFP to all Trustees. Upon title of the property, EPURA anticipates subdividing the property into two lots; such a subdivision will require submittal to the Estes Park Planning Commission.
