Mr. Moore stated the confluence of the Big Thompson and Fall River was the most important aspect of the approach. Primary focus of the project is to (1) create a 'draw' of people to Town and (2) create a relationship between retail business, the river and amenities. Discussion will take place between DSW and the Public Works Department with regard to construction materials. Bids for the project will be solicited in July, with construction anticipated to begin in August. Discussion followed concerning pedestrian access along East Riverside Drive and Rockwell Street, the possibility of including and designing an ice skating area, and the cost summary estimate of $700,000. Mayor Dannels complimented EPURA and DSW on the concept plan which will include the use of native materials. There being no further business, the meeting adjourned. Vickie O'Connor, Town Clerk
