CONTINUATION OF PRIORITIZATION EXERCISES.
The Committee discussed the most effective way to finalize the prioritization of
discussion topics that had previously been grouped into short-term, mid-term, and long-
term categories to meet the Committee's objective of identifying the priority of topics for
placement in the final report to the Town Board. After discussion, it was proposed that
Committee members rank the top three action items under the categories of short-term,
mid-term, and Tong -term within each main heading of Information Distribution, Parking,
Roads and Bypasses, Multi -Modal, and Shuttles. It was determined that this technique
would not only identify high priority topics, but also group similar topics and those topics
that are dependent upon each other for implementation. It was moved and seconded
(Rosener/K. Campbell) to utilize a method of ranking the top three action items, with
three being the highest priority, and allow multiple items to be ranked the same if
perceived to be equivalent, and it passed unanimously. Larry Gamble stated that he
and John Hannon have been attending the TVC meetings as representatives of Rocky
Mountain National Park (RMNP) and questioned whether they should be part of the
ranking process. All members present concurred that their input is important to the
process. It was moved and seconded (Rosener/Mares) that input be received and
accepted from Mr. Gamble and Mr. Hannon, and it passed unanimously.
The Committee members ranked the topics. Those not present at the meeting were
asked to turn their ranking information into Co -Chair Miller by Friday, January 27tn
Rankings will be calculated and the results will be available for distribution on Monday
prior to the next meeting which is scheduled for Wednesday, February 1, 2012.
