Meeting held in the Municipal Building in said Town of Estes Park on the 21st day of September, 2022. Board: Chair Belle Morris; Vice-Chair Kristen Ekeren; Members Javier Bernal, Jessica Ferko, Ann Finley, Larry Gamble, Linda Hanick, Mark Igel, and Gordon Slack; Trustee Patrick Martchink; Staff Liaison Greg Muhonen Attending: Chair Morris; Vice-Chair Ekeren; Members Bernal, Ferko, Gamble, Hanick, Igel, and Slack; Managers Hook and Solesbee; Director Muhonen; Trustee Martchink; Recording Secretary McDonald; Jeff Bailey, Public Works Engineer; John Hannon (National Park Service); Dana Klein (Manager, The Car Park); and John Guffey (Citizen) Absent: Member Finley Chair Morris called the meeting to order at 12:05 p.m. PUBLIC COMMENT John Guffey (Citizen) attended to share comments and concerns about improving the safety, access, and overall experience for biking in Estes Park. He emphasized the importance of biking as an ecologically friendly, sustainable, and responsible mode of transportation, and suggested that promoting the use of bikes is an opportunity for the Town to manage noise and to inform and educate visitors and residents through the “lens of ecotourism,” especially since Estes Park serves as the gateway to Rocky Mountain National Park. He also suggested that the work of all Town-related boards reflect consideration for climate change issues. TRUSTEE LIAISON UPDATE Trustee Martchink reported that the Town Board is working through the budget process, and that during some upcoming planned absences, another trustee will be appointed to attend a few TAB meetings on his behalf in the coming months. He also reported that debris from a car accident needed to be removed from the US 34/US 36 intersection; Director Muhonen will notify the Streets Division. APPROVAL OF MINUTES DATED AUGUST 17, 2022 It was moved and seconded (Slack/Igel) to approve the August 17, 2022, minutes with minor amendments, and the motion passed unanimously. Members Gamble and Hanick abstained from voting due to absence from the August meeting. 3 Transportation Advisory Board – September 21, 2022 – Page 2 DOWNTOWN WAYFINDING PLAN Manager Hook presented the Downtown Wayfinding Signage Program—Design & Implementation Plan draft, which features public survey results from 49 participants and several development steps previously discussed by the TAB. The survey charts were briefly reviewed; results are still being analyzed, and it was agreed that the survey alone should not determine the final designs. Discussion points included signage language and the reader’s freedom to use translation tools; the value of universal icons for international travelers, which was not reflected in survey results; legibility factors due to sign height and when excessive wordage requires using a smaller font size; development cost estimate and budget considerations; signage maintenance factors; and the possibility of displaying a few signs as an early demo before the goal of full signage placement by Memorial Day 2023. CLEAVE STREET IMPROVEMENTS Manager Hook introduced Engineer Bailey, who presented the Cleave Street Improvements survey summary and the drafts of the parking lane map and Mixed Use, No Parking option. The survey reflected balanced preference between transforming the actual use of the street, or improving upon the way it is currently used. The plaza concept will be pursued. Discussion points included parking mitigation and pedestrian safety factors for each of the four conceptual designs; storm water drainage issues; whether the project will inspire businesses to feature a Cleave Street entrance; how the project will be balanced with other construction projects in Estes Park; and the possibility of a Big Horn Lot parking deck as a separate project. Manager Solesbee advised that parking throughout downtown will be impacted by parking options in the CSI project area. The TAB will review the 30% plans in October before the next public outreach. The 60% plans will be presented to the TAB in November, followed by the 90% plans presentation at a December 13 Town Board Study Session. The CSI is planned for bid in March/April 2023, with construction to start next fall. ENGINEERING UPDATES Manager Hook reported no new applicants for the Civil Engineer I/II position. Progress continues on the Fall River Trail (FRT) Extension and Graves Avenue—Safe Routes to School projects. Grant opportunities to help fund the final segment of FRT are being pursued through the Colorado Department of Transportation—Transportation Alternatives Program (CDOT-TAP) and Colorado Parks and Wildlife—Land and Water Conservation Fund (CWL-LWCF). Staff are awaiting the Intergovernmental Agreement for the Upper Front Range Transportation Planning Region’s (UFRTPR) Multimodal Transportation and Mitigation Options Fund (MMOF) grant, for which the Town applied in June to fund the FRT completion shortfall; $1.4m of the $2m requested has been granted. The CDOT Revitalizing Main Streets Program (RMS) grant may also be pursued. ADMINISTRATION UPDATES Director Muhonen advised that the Downtown Estes Loop (DEL) bid opens October 4 for a contract completion deadline of December 15, 2024; an early completion incentive payment of $1m applies if work is completed by July 26, 2024. Weekend lane closures are prohibited July through mid-October. A project update will be presented by the 4 Transportation Advisory Board – September 21, 2022 – Page 3 Federal Highway Administration—Central Federal Lands Highway Division (FHWA- CFLHD) at the October 11 Town Board Study Session. For the Community Drive/Hwy 36 Roundabout project, the Town Board supported an amended grant agreement for an additional $1.2m in CDOT funding. Staff are to request a Town budget supplement of $600k to fund the shortfall. Advertising awaits concurrence from CDOT. The Town has contributed $12k to the Estes Valley Recreation and Parks District for overhead electric relocation on Devil’s Gulch Road, as part of the Master Trails Plan trail extension work between the Wonderview Avenue roundabout and the Gem Lake/Lumpy Ridge trailhead. Staffing updates include the hiring of a Grants Specialist (start date September 19) and Facilities and Parks Manager (start date September 26). Offers have been extended for the positions of Town Engineer and Parking and Transit Supervisor. Manager Solesbee has been promoted to Mobility Services Manager to oversee parking, transit, and the Fleet Division. MOBILITY SERVICES UPDATES Manager Solesbee reported that the full summer transit service ended September 11; the Red Route (trolley) continues through October 16. August ridership numbers increased 36% over 2021. Grant funding will ensure weekend winter trolley service through December 31. Troubles with the existing electric trolley continue, but it remains under warranty; the second trolley is still experiencing delayed production, and delivery is anticipated this winter. The continued delay will necessitate that Town staff ask CDOT for a grant agreement contract extension. Any such extension would also need to be approved by the Town Board. The trolley barn 90% plan set is now ready; grants and Town funding will be pursued to close the gap between the 2020 and current cost estimates. The redesign of the Visitor Center parking lot (SB 267) begins with Request for Proposals in late 2022. The Estes Transit branding contract is being finalized; this fully grant-funded project is anticipated to begin by November. The new trolley pin program is going well, with more than 1,000 pins already given out. There was brief discussion regarding route deviation requests, which are honored if the desired stop is within .75 miles of the official stop. Only one route deviation has been formally requested so far this transit season, compared to approximately six in 2021; however, transit drivers routinely accommodate minor special requests from locals. The paid parking season concludes on October 16. The 2022 season recap will be presented to TAB in October, with a Town Board Study Session to follow. Fee changes will not be proposed for 2023. Manager Klein (The Car Park) encouraged completion of the paid parking season survey, which was recently emailed to permit holders. The Town may be invited to pilot the iAccess Life app, which is designed to accommodate drivers/travelers with physical limitations. 5 Transportation Advisory Board – September 21, 2022 – Page 4 The American Public Works Association (APWA) Colorado Chapter selected the Public Works Department to receive two 2022 Sustainability Awards—in the small community category—for the Town's electric trolley program and the Downtown Parking Management Plan. TERM LIMITS DISCUSSION Member Igel received community feedback that the TAB may be perceived as a special interest group focused on select issues like bicycle advocacy. Discussion points included whether board term limits could reshape this perception by ensuring that the TAB is an evolving entity that reflects the community’s diverse interests; the various membership transitions and lingering vacancies that have occurred since 2012; the value of retaining some senior members who are familiar with the TAB’s past work as well as certain long- term projects best served by historical knowledge; the fact that the TAB’s bylaws state “no term limitations” and are the template for the Town’s other advisory boards; how the TAB could work to recruit membership and improve community engagement in its mission and projects; and examples of what other cities and counties do to promote civic participation, such as open houses for local committees and clubs. OTHER BUSINESS None. There being no further business, Chair Morris adjourned the meeting at 2:01 p.m. Lani McDonald, Recording Secretary 6 DRAFT - October 14, 2022 Town of Estes Park Downtown Wayfinding Signage Program - Design & Implementation Plan DOWNTOWN WAYFINDING 7 2 Estes Park Downtown Wayfinding Signage Program 8 Table Of Contents 01 Introduction & Planning Overview pages 4-7 02 Wayfinding Signage Design pages 8-21 03 Cost Estimates & Phasing Plan pages 28-29 04 Construction Documentation pages 30-35 05 Appendix A pages 36-37 Acknowledgments Town of Estes Park David Hook, Engineering Manager | Public Works Department Greg Muhonen, Director | Public Works Department Kate Rusch, Public Information Officer Lani McDonald, Administrative Assistant | Public Works Department LauraJane Baur, Planning Technician | Community Development Consultant Team E. Holdings, Inc. Michael Baker International 9 Estes Park Downtown Wayfinding Signage Program4 As both a tourist destination and a deeply rooted Colorado community, Downtown Estes Park is in a unique position to tell its story through signage and wayfinding. The new signage will stand on the shoulders of previously completed plans, as well as the long history of the Estes Park community and its potential for future growth and economic development. In 2018, the Estes Park Downtown Plan (DP) was adopted by the Town. Included in the DP were recommendations for improving wayfinding signage. As the first task of implementing downtown wayfinding, the Town initiated the Parking Pilot Project in 2020. The Town of Estes Park hired a project consultant to design the signs and assist the Town through the construction bid process in 2021. This task of the Downtown Wayfinding Signage Program, explained in the Parking Pilot Project Booklet, was completed with the placement of new signs in parking lots in and near the Downtown. Now, in 2022, the Town is focused on expanding signage throughout Downtown, with the design and implementation services of E. Holdings, Inc. and Michael Baker International. Central to the success of any signage and wayfinding program is its ability to communicate a memorable, compelling, understandable, and authentic story about place. A great community wayfinding program highlights key attributes of a place while creating an emotional bond with residents and visitors, and providing stakeholders with a solid foundation for marketing and promotion. Having connections to planning, graphic design, marketing, consensus-building and stakeholder engagement, a successful signage and wayfinding plan is grounded in a broad and deep understanding of what makes a place great. The primary goals of the new signage and wayfinding program include: Create a cohesive, iconic, inclusive, and welcoming wayfinding system that celebrates the community and directs visitors into and through Downtown Estes Park Alert and direct visitors and residents to community amenities in Downtown, particularly directed towards pedestrians and bicyclists Provide opportunities for the community to provide meaningful input into the signage designs to ensure that they are reflective of the image and values of Estes Park Identify the style, quantity and type of signage needed Downtown Outline the costs and resources needed to implement the content and background of the signage and wayfinding designs project 01 Introduction + Planning Overview INTRODUCTION 10 5Estes Park Downtown Wayfinding Signage Program The DP was adopted in 2018 to guide future Downtown development and infrastructure investments. The planning process explored a range of Downtown topics with the community, including the character of development, multi-modal circulation, flood mitigation, parking strategies and more. The DP recommends wayfinding signage in a number of different sections to not only help with circulation and movement, but also as a strategy for community branding and placemaking. The plan was reviewed to ensure that the Downtown Wayfinding Signage Program builds upon what has been completed. Previous Plan Key Goals Identified included: • Improve wayfinding to parking and transit facilities: Vehicles circulating looking for parking add congestion to the network. This can be addressed in part through improved signage and wayfinding. • Reconfigure existing roadways to better spread traffic across the network: The Loop project will significantly reallocate traffic between Moraine Avenue and West Riverside Drive/ Riverside Drive. • Expand the roadway network where possible: With a very limited network Downtown, providing new routes can relieve traffic on the primary routes. Community Focal Points (from the DP) • Park Theatre • Town Hall area • Elkhorn Lodge • Bond Park • Performance Park • Knoll-Willow Open Space • Visitor Center Area • Riverwalk and Riverwalk Plaza • West Elkhorn Avenue • Cleave Street Identified Signage Types (from the DP) • Gateway Signs (identified gateway areas include the Visitor Center Gateway, Elkhorn Lodge Gateway, and Piccadilly Square Gateway) • Pedestrian Directional Signs • Pedestrian Kiosks • Pedestrian Interpretive Signs PREVIOUS PLAN REVIEW Map of Downtown Character areas from the 2018 Estes Park Downtown Plan add description here 11 6 Estes Park Downtown Wayfinding Signage Program Community input for the Downtown Wayfinding Signage Program consisted of three distinct phases. PHASE 1: PROJECT GOALS + DESIGN INSPIRATION (APRIL-MAY) The first phase of community input included a public meeting, held on April 21, 2022. The meeting was held both in-person in the Town Hall as well as online via Zoom. Approximately 15 people participated in the meeting (in-person and online). The meeting included a presentation about wayfinding and the goals of the project, then included a public feedback session where attendees were asked to provide their opinions on the following: • What do you want signage to achieve? • What destinations should signage direct people to? • What do you think of the 2019 design concepts and the 2021 Parking Pilot Project signs? • What best practices examples of the different types of signs (pedestrian directional, kiosks, gateway/monument signs) do you like and what elements should be included? The presentation was posted to the Town’s website after the meeting and people were able to provide input via a Google Jamboard, which allowed participants to provide their ideas just as if they had attended the public meeting. Overall, people stated that they wanted the design of the signs to reflect the following values: • Be clear, simple, not busy • Emphasis on workmanship, artistic and charming designs • Dark sky compliance • Neutral colors palette – earth tones, similar to national park • Use wood-based materials and warm lighting • Like the use of icons – good for visitors and non-English speaking residents • Use a compact design – do not take up a lot of space on sidewalks • Kiosks should include walking distances and times and consider including digital maps • Like the Parking Pilot Project signs, need signs now to direct people from parking lots to the various attractions, with a particular emphasis on signing the trail network • Direct people to lesser known attractions (historical sites, smaller parks,trails, etc.) COMMUNITY INPUT Images the Residents Liked the MOST These images are captured from the Google Jamboard, reflecting the public input collected during and after the April public meeting. 12 7Estes Park Downtown Wayfinding Signage Program Es t e s P a r k 00MIN 00MIN 00MIN 00MIN 00MIN 00MIN 00MIN 00MIN 00MIN 00MIN 00MIN 00MIN 00MIN 00MIN 00MIN 00MIN 00MIN 00MIN 00MIN 00MIN 00MIN 00MIN 00MIN 00MIN ii INFORMATION Es t e s P a r k IN F O R M A T I O N 31.6%35.4%21.5%11.4% 33.6%28.2%10%28.2% 42.3%18%30.1%9.6% 57.3%16.2%26.5% Q2: Do your prefer a solid stone base, stacked stone base, or no base?

In an online survey that was open for the month of July, we asked people to choose their favorite design options for a variety of proposed sign types and answer a few additional questions about what these signs should include. More than 240 people weighed in – see what they said below! PHASE 2: DESIGN SURVEY (JULY) The second phase of community input was designed to gather opinions on the preliminary design concepts that were prepared in response to input received during the first phase. Preliminary conceptual designs were created for pedestrian directional signs, large kiosks, small kiosks, parking signs (to eventually replace the Parking Pilot Project signs), and shuttle stop signs. Gateway/monument signs were not included as part of the preliminary designs; residents and the Town staff agreed that the large stone Estes Park sign could be replicated at other gateway entrances and did not need to be included as part of this project. The survey was available online via the project website, with hard copies available at the Estes Park Department of Public Works (PW) office and at in-person opportunities throughout the month of July. PW staff hosted tables at the weekly Farmers Market in an effort to publicize the project and design survey. Over 240 people responded to the survey; a summary of the results are shown in the image to the right. The survey consisted of the following 14 questions: 1. Please choose your favorite pedestrian directional sign (four options) 2. Do you prefer the design where the sign blades protrude from the post or are flush? 3. Please choose your favorite kiosk design (three options) 4. Should the kiosks be illuminated (solar, dark sky compliant)? 5. Should the Kiosks offer protection from the rain? 6. Should the kiosks include bench seating? 7. Should the kiosks include digital maps? 8. Please choose your favorite small kiosk design (four options) 9. Please choose your preferred permanent parking sign (two options) 10. Please choose your favorite shuttle stop design (four options) 11. What pattern do you like best if the etched design is chosen (six options) 12. Do you prefer the stacked stone base, solid stone base, or no base at all? 13. Do you live and/or work in Estes Park or are you visiting? 14. Please provide any additional thoughts. The public survey was advertised on the Town website, social media, press release, A-frame signs throughout Downtown, and direct emails to people who attended the April public meeting as well as distributed through the Chamber of Commerce. Over 240 people completed the survey either online or in- person. 13 8 Estes Park Downtown Wayfinding Signage Program PHASE 3: VIRTUAL OPEN HOUSE (SEPTEMBER) The final phase of community input consisted of a virtual open house hosted on the Town website with a few short videos providing an overview of the project and final sign designs. A short online survey was included to allow for participants to provide their input on priority locations and use of icons. Approximately 42 people participated in the survey. The survey was divided into two parts. The first section asked about overall priorities for which signage types are most important for Estes Park. Installation of the final signage will be phased and public preferences will help determine which should be prioritized. • Pedestrian Directional Signs • Kiosks • Shuttle Stop Signage • Auto Directional Signs The second section asked participants to prioritize the areas in Estes Park where signage is needed the most. For the purposes of this survey, Estes Park was organized into the following locations: 1. ‘Main Streets’ - The downtown main streets include Elkhorn and Moraine Avenues. These primary spines are the major entryways into downtown Estes Park and areas with many storefronts, shops and restaurants. Although the ‘Main Streets’ carry auto traffic, they are primarily areas where many people walk and explore downtown Estes Park. Sign types included within the ‘Main Street’ area include pedestrian signs such as informational kiosks, pedestrian directional signs, shuttle stop signage, and historic signage displays. ‘Main Street’ areas also include auto directional and destination signage. 2. Riverwalk and Trail Areas - In downtown Estes Park, the Riverwalk functions as a parallel ‘Main Street’ with many businesses and restaurants having an additional entrance or seating area that fronts onto the Fall/Big Thompson Rivers. The Riverwalk is also an important trail connection linking the downtown to Rocky Mountain National Park and the Estes Park Visitor Center. The Riverwalk also connects to other Estes Park trails that follow the Big Thompson River or provide walking trail loops at Lake Estes and through the Knoll-Willows Open Space. Signage types along the Riverwalk and other trail areas are pedestrian, and include directional and mapping information that help visitors find their way. 3. Estes Park Visitor Center & Parking Garage Area - The Visitor Center and parking garage are areas where visitors to Estes Park transition from driving to walking, and access services like visitor information or shuttle stops. The signage types here include pedestrian kiosks and directional signage, and shuttle stop signs that display shuttle routing and timing information. 4. Estes Park Events Center Complex - The Event Center Complex is a unique destination in Estes Park, and includes the Fairgrounds, the Estes Park Museum, a covered rodeo area, and the Silo Conference Center. Many events are held throughout the year at the complex, including the Longs Peak Scottish Highlands Festival. Signage at this location includes pedestrian destination, shuttle stop, and directional signs. There are also auto directional signs that orient visitors to this area and other Estes Park destinations. The final section of the survey asked for preferences on the use of icons or text on the signage and any additional comments on the final signage designs overall. The results of the survey are included on page 9.

In 2018 the town conducted a Downtown Plan that included preliminary sign design concepts and wayfinding recommendations. Also heavily influencing the final designs was the Parking Pilot Project signage installed in 2021. Building off of feedback from the community and these prior efforts, a full family of signs has been developed that includes a total of 11 different signs types that will allow the town to create a cohesive and easy to follow wayfinding system. The overall design includes elements that tie to the town’s location in the Rocky Mountains through use of materials and colors. The close-by Rocky Mountain National Park utilizes wood throughout it’s signage and our design nods to this through the use of wood panel. This panel sits atop a main support of weathered-look Corten steel and is topped by aluminum blades. This stacking of materials gives the signs depth and visual interest while allowing the blades to be replaceable if needed. The main support sits atop a stacked stone base which we recommend be made of locally sourced buff colored sandstone so that it will fit seamlessly with the Town’s location and with stone used on other projects. 02 Wayfinding Signage Design SIGNAGE DESIGN OVERVIEW 16 14’ 13’ 12’ 11’ 10’ 9’ 8’ 7’ 6’ 5’ 4’ 3’ 2’ 1’ Es t e s P a r k Es t e s P a r k Riverwalk paseo del río centro historico Sendero del río Big Thompson Historic Downtown Big Thompson River Trail IN F O R M A T I O N INFORMATION información Riverwalkpaseo del río Sendero del río Big Thompson Big Thompson River Trail centro historico Historic Downtown Parking Garage Visitor Center Downtown Stanley Village PAID Ev e n t s C o m p l e x SEASONAL SHUTTLE STOP estacional parada de transporte NO OVERNIGHT PARKING sin estacionamiento nocturno Moose Lot lote de alces Public Parking FREE Estes Park Riverwalk paseo del río Sendero del río Big Thompson Big Thompson River Trail centro historico Historic Downtown Riverwalk Trail sendero del paseo del río  Restrooms 5 min.  Historic Downtown 5 min.  Visitors Center 15 min.

Whenever the town logo is used, height to width ratio must remain consistent and match provided logo throughout the designs. Design Standards - CDOT and MUTCD Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) has its own specific standards related to signage, and the signs are designed to include these details. Any Auto Directional signage that falls in CDOT right-of-ways will include a break-away feature, and the overall signs are designed to ensure they can withstand the 120mph wind loads in Estes Park. CDOT also requires specific minimum heights for letters and icons, and the signs were designed to adhere to these standards. Materials The proposed materials utilized throughout the sign family include: • Locally sourced stacked ‘buff’ sandstone base with concrete cap • Coated Corten Steel or Corten look supports • Treated wood wrap • Wind load compliant and bend-proof aluminum blades Sustainability The materials and designs of the new signage were developed to support a low environmental footprint. Beyond the recyclability of the materials, the fabrication methods and sourcing of materials should also driven by a desire to reduce the environmental costs of the signs. The colors, fonts, and designs for the signage reflect the existing Town of Estes Park logo and brand. 18 13Estes Park Downtown Wayfinding Signage Program Es t e s P a r k Es t e s P a r k Riverwalk paseo del río centro historico Sendero del río Big Thompson Historic Downtown Big Thompson River Trail INFORMATION información Riverwalkpaseo del río Sendero del río Big Thompson Big Thompson River Trail centro historicoHistoric Downtown Parking Garage Visitor Center Downtown Stanley Village PAID Ev e n t s C o m p l e x SEASONAL SHUTTLE STOP estacional parada de transporte NOOVERNIGHTPARKING sin estacionamiento nocturno Moose Lot lote de alces Public Parking FREE Estes Park Riverwalk paseo del río Sendero del río Big Thompson Big Thompson River Trail centro historico Historic Downtown Riverwalk Trail sendero del paseo del río  Restrooms 5 min.  Historic Downtown 5 min.  Visitors Center 15 min.

The signs will feature the names of nearby attractions or amenities accompanied by a directional arrow. Like the standard directional signs these smaller signs will feature the Corten steel main support, wood wrap, and aluminum blades used throughout the family design. Three panels are included at the top to denote what attractions are the left, right, or straight ahead. The stone base has been removed to allowed for easier maintenance. Building mounted signage will be utilized when there is not enough space to place a pedestrian directional sign. They can be mounted on either flat on the face a building (if single sided) or mounted perpendicular to a building or other existing structure. If mounted perpendicular signs will be mounted to steel supports. Mounting methods should be considered for each location and conform to what is best for each type of surface being mounted to. 3 - TRAIL DIRECTIONAL 4 - BUILDING-MOUNTED DIRECTIONAL 24 19Estes Park Downtown Wayfinding Signage Program SIGNAGE LOCATION MAP: SIGN TYPE 3 & 4 NOTE: Detailed Location Map in Google Earth Google Earth Link: The Google Earth file provides detailed location information, and should be used as the reference file for locating signage.

Kiosks will also include maps to help users orient themselves and discover all nearby amenities. Estes Park has many attractions and trails within the town and is located within close proximity to the Rocky Mountain National Park and other national park trails. Kiosks will help pedestrians discover and navigate to these attractions and amenities. The kiosk features a map, walk times and distances, and other information about attractions and amenities located within the Town. The construction includes the standard stacked stone base with top cap. Two metal poles will support the main panels and roof; coated steel is recommended to prevent decay. The roof is curved to achieve dark sky regulation compliance. The stone base will serve as a bench on one side, as the poles will be mounted off center to allow approx 24 inches of seating space. There will be an information panel on either side of the poles that will allow for the map and navigation information to be displayed on the outside. This inside panel can feature additional town information. A digital map or digital information elements can also be included as part of this kiosk. All map and information panels should be made of acrylic so they are waterproof and be fade resistant. 26 21Estes Park Downtown Wayfinding Signage Program SIGNAGE LOCATION MAP: SIGN TYPE 5 NOTE: Detailed Location Map in Google Earth Google Earth Link: The Google Earth file provides detailed location, messaging, and signage content information, and should be used as the reference file for designing and locating the proposed signage. https://earth.google.com/earth/d/1mJI8u8X9nOVVcpCzRG 5MNhxvdgXmEt2S?usp=sharing 27 22 Estes Park Downtown Wayfinding Signage Program 11’ 10’ 9’ 8’ 7’ 6’ 5’ 4’ 3’ 2’ 1’ Pe r f o r m a c e P a r k SEASONAL SHUTTLE STOP estacional parada de transporte NO OVERNIGHT PARKING sin estacionamiento nocturno Moose Lot lote de alces 24” 16” 19” 5” 8” 9’ 4” 62.5” 11” Pe r f o r m a n c e P a r k 11” text: 2.5” icon: 4” text: 1” icon: 2” text: 1” icon: 1.5” text: 1” 42” 11.5” large text: 4” small text: 3“ icon: 4”Public Parking FREE 9.5”SEASONAL SHUTTLE STOP estacional parada de transporte NO OVERNIGHT PARKING sin estacionamiento nocturno Moose Lot lote de alces Logo Placard: 15” tall 20” 22” Wood Wrap Aluminum Blades Aluminum Panel Corten Steel Support Stacked Stone with Cap Public Parking FREE 6 - DESTINATION SIGNS DOWNTOWN WAYFINDING SIGN TYPE: 6 In 2021 the town installed a Parking Pilot Project sign system. This system included parking lot destination signs and auto-directional signs designed to lead motorists to parking areas. These signs were designed to last between 5-10 years. When the time comes to replace these signs we have proposed a new destination sign that incorporates the downtown sign family design. These signs can be used to mark parking areas, as well as other destinations. We have taken into account all information that was included in the 2021 parking pilot sign designs and included it on this new design as well. As the parking system features both paid and free parking lots, as well as different amenities at each lot, we have utilized space on the support beam to list these amenities and added a parking icon to the blade. 28 23Estes Park Downtown Wayfinding Signage Program SIGNAGE LOCATION MAP: SIGN TYPE 6 NOTE: Detailed Location Map in Google Earth Google Earth Link: The Google Earth file provides detailed location, messaging, and signage content information, and should be used as the reference file for designing and locating the proposed signage. https://earth.google.com/earth/d/1mJI8u8X9nOVVcpCzRG 5MNhxvdgXmEt2S?usp=sharing 29 24 Estes Park Downtown Wayfinding Signage Program 14’ 13’ 12’ 11’ 10’ 9’ 8’ 7’ 6’ 5’ 4’ 3’ 2’ 1’ E s t e s P a r k 20” 55” 5” 8” 12” 80” 15” 13’ 8” 6’3” 7’ 2” text: 6” icons: 4.5” arrow: 8” Wood Wrap Corten Steel Supports Aluminum Blades Raised Lettering 5.5” Logo Placard 6.5” x 14” Breakaway feature should be included that meets CDOT standards Bolts Blade will be supported by wood or steel spacer Parking Garage Visitor Center Downtown Stanley Village PAID Performance Park WAYFINDING SIGN TYPE: 7 In 2021 auto directional signs were installed to direct drivers to parking areas. These signs were designed to introduce the parking system and meant to be replaced within 5-10 years. When this time comes we propose installing new auto directional signs that direct to more than just parking. Utilizing the overall sign family design we have proposed an auto directional sign design that features the same materials and blades. We have added a secondary support pole to meet wind loads and removed the stone base so that break-aways can be incorporated. Auto Directional signs should also include a break away feature that will be anchored underground and protrude up into the support. 7 - AUTO DIRECTIONAL 30 25Estes Park Downtown Wayfinding Signage Program SIGNAGE LOCATION MAP: SIGN TYPE 7 NOTE: Detailed Location Map in Google Earth Google Earth Link: The Google Earth file provides detailed location, messaging, and signage content information, and should be used as the reference file for designing and locating the proposed signage. https://earth.google.com/earth/d/1mJI8u8X9nOVVcpCzRG 5MNhxvdgXmEt2S?usp=sharing 31 26 Estes Park Downtown Wayfinding Signage Program 11’ 10’ 9’ 8’ 7’ 6’ 5’ 4’ 3’ 2’ 1’ SHUTTLE SHUTTLE Tr e g e n t P a r k Tr e g e n t P a r k 5” 8” 8” 11.5” Wood Wrap Aluminum Blades Aluminum Panel Corten Steel Support Wood Panel Aluminum Blade Aluminum Panel Corten Steel Backing Stacked Stone with Cap 9” 26” text: 3” icon: 4” 5” 8’4” 44” 5” text: 2.5” icon: 3.5” 24” Logo Placard: 15” Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat volutpat.

In the effort to create a complete wayfinding system we have included a proposed design for these signs as well. For the shuttle stop signs, we have added an extra panel to the support beam that will hold the stop name and amenity information. We have also added a shuttle stop logo to the sign blade. There has also be interest in the future development of a ‘historical tour’ through the town. We have included a proposed design to help with this future endeavor. 32 27Estes Park Downtown Wayfinding Signage Program 9’ 8’ 7’ 6’ 5’ 4’ 3’ 2’ 1’ MILE1 Fa l l R u n T r a i l Trail Name 0.0 mi / 00 min Fa l l R u n T r a i l 12” 15” 5’ 5”5’ 17” 16” text: 1” icon: 2.5” 4”Trail Name 0.0 mi / 00 min Trail Name 0.0 mi / 00 min Trail Name 0.0 mi / 00 min 3” 5” Wood Wrap 3” Wood WrapAluminum Blades Corten Steel Support 5” 8”5” 12” Raised Lettering: 2.5” placed 24” high Raised Lettering: 2.5” placed 24” high 10 - ON TRAIL DIRECTIONAL 11 - MILE MARKERS FUTURE WAYFINDING SIGN TYPE: 10 & 11 As Estes Park has several trails and trail systems in, or in close proximity to, the downtown area, we have included trail directional and mile markers signs as part of our downtown sign family. The trail directionals reflect the design on the standard pedestrian directional signs, but are smaller and shorter as they will be installed in areas where the trail or path is smaller and a larger footprint it not feasible. They feature the town’s name on the support beam and directional blades for each of the three directions (right, left, and stright ahead). The mile marker is simple to reduce costs as several will be needed to create a breadcrumb trail. The top has a wood wrap which the mile number can be carved into and the post can feature the name of the trail. We have removed the stone base on both of the trail sign types so that snow removal and sign and trail maintenance will be easier. 33 28 Estes Park Downtown Wayfinding Signage Program 03 Cost Estimates & Phasing Plan Cost estimates have been prepared for each sign type. The preliminary designs were sent to local fabricators to provide an estimate of probable cost. These estimates are based on the designs, dimensions, and materials as detailed in Section 02. Cost of materials have been very volatile due to COVID-19 and should only be used as an estimate for budgeting purposes. Actual costs are likely to vary, depending on the timing of bid requests.

Using the public input provided as part of outreach on signage priorities as a guide; 2. Implementing signs by type where feasible, to allow for economies of scale and ensure that complete sign systems are installed at one time (i.e. pedestrian directional vs. auto- directional); 3. Since the Parking Pilot Project signs were just installed in 2021, the auto-directional and destination signs are proposed for the final phases, which can be broken down into additional phasing by replacing some at a time rather than all at once; 4. All signs, regardless of sign type, that are proposed to be within the area of construction for the Downtown Estes Loop are all recommended to be part of a separate phase, in order to replace any existing Parking Pilot Project signs that are impacted by construction and eliminate the need to move newly installed signs. The phasing plan is proposed in order of priority and meant to be a guide to be used for budgetary purposes; however, the phases can be implemented in any order or broken into additional phasing as funding may dictate.

Quality Standards The materials, products, equipment and performance specifications described within, establish a standard of required function, dimension, appearance, performance and quality to be met by the Fabricator. B. Structural Design Details on design intent drawings indicate a design approach for sign structure but do not necessarily include all fabrication details required for the complete structural integrity of the signs, including consideration for static, dynamic and erection loads during handling, erecting, and service at the installed locations, nor do they necessarily consider the preferred shop practices of the individual Fabricators. Therefore, it shall be the responsibility of the Fabricator to perform the complete structural design and engineering of the signs and to incorporate all the safety features necessary to adequately support the sign for its intended use and purpose and to protect the Owner. Fabricator shall also be responsible for ensuring that all signs meet local, state and federal codes. Compliance with the Colorado Department of Transportation standards regarding wind speeds and breakaway features will be especially critical, and will need to be documented and detailed for each sign (refer to specification “L” for more detailed wind speed requirements). C. Vandalism Design Fabrication and installation design is to withstand severe abuse and souvenir theft vandalism, but not less than the equivalent of resisting simple hand implements and tools (screwdrivers, knives, coins, keys, and similar items), and adult physical force. All hardware and fasteners within reach shall be vandal resistant, and all sign faces shall have a graffiti-resistant coating. D. Substitution No substitution will be considered unless the Owner has received written request for approval. E. Pre-Fabrication Submittals The awarded fabricator must submit a copy of the following items to the Owner and Designer for their review prior to fabrication proceeding: 1. Detailed engineered shop drawings for each sign type are to be submitted as electronic PDF no larger than 11”x 17”. Final Shop Drawings are to be stamped by an Engineer licensed in the state of the project. The shop drawings for each sign type shall illustrate/describe the following: • Elevations and cross sections – front, sides, top and back (if necessary); side sections; with all final dimensions and call-outs for: Components – construction details/information related to individual elements. Materials – color, type, gauge, and thickness (including substrates and overlays). Finishes – color, type of product, manufacturer, and sheen. Fonts - graphics specifications and message fields. Exploded view (optional) – isometric view with components, materials, and finishes. Cross-section of corners – one illustration for each corner condition. Items to be illustrated: seams, joints, layers, supports and fasteners. • Mounting/installation details – provide foundation cross-sections (including hardware), bracket/post details, elevations, materials, finishes, fasteners, and any bracing needed for structural integrity. 2. Three (3) samples of each material (paint, vinyl, wood, Corten, stacked stone, etc.) to be used on the sign using actual substrate materials should be supplied. One sample will be returned, one sent to the Owner and one kept in the Designer’s records. 3. A proofing document of final production keystroking for all sign messages to verify line breaks, character and word spacing, and interline spacing should be submitted. The proofs are to be scaled production art files, not full sized. Each layout is to be identified with the sign number. 4. The fabricator must prepare and submit a full-scale structural sample of sign types 4 and 7. Sample must use final materials. This sample may be used as the final sign panel, upon approval by the Designer. 5. Fabricator must submit a schedule detailing how far in advance artwork will be required for Estes Park logo. 6. Fabricator must provide weekly status reports to the Owner and Designer detailing fabrication and installation progress and the expected completion schedule. 36 31Estes Park Downtown Wayfinding Signage Program F. Material Handling The Fabricator is to pack, wrap, crate, bundle, box, bag, or otherwise package, handle, transport, and store all fabricated work as necessary to provide protection from damage by every cause. Fabricator shall provide clear and legible identifying information on all product packaging to ensure proper on-site identification and installation. G. Construction Methodology Fabricators are given leeway to fabricate the signs to meet the intent of the designs depicted by the drawings. 1. Because different systems of extrusions may result in slightly different dimensional requirements, the total height and width dimensions described in the sign construction on the drawings may be considered “nominal” for the purposes of cost quote. 2. Sign faces are to be fabricated using steel/aluminum plate of varying thicknesses, as specified on design intent drawings, with a minimum thickness of .125” inches unless otherwise noted or required to accommodate structural wind loads. 3. All finishes are to be satin finish, free from fading, peeling or cracking. Paint preparation of all metal surfaces of the sign to include removal of all scratches and imperfections, sanding and chemical etching. Substrate cleaning, preparation, paint application and paint thickness to be in strict compliance with Matthews Paint or AkzoNobel published recommendations. Acceleration of the drying process is not allowed. 4. Except where approved otherwise by Owner, conceal fasteners. 5. Any sign faces smaller than 8’ by 20’ are to be fabricated from 1 piece of seamless material. 6. Joints between various portions of signs must have a tight, hairline-type appearance, without gaps. Provide sufficient fastenings to preclude looseness, racking, or similar movement. 7. Breakaway supports should be concealed by the footer the extent that is possible while still functioning. Fabricator is responsible for ensuring breakaway mechanisms function to all required standards. 8. Sign faces are to have lettering and graphics created as surface- applied vinyl typography using Avery or 3M exterior grade, minimum 2-year warranty, or the equivalent (direct printing onto an retro-reflective surface, for example, wherever CDOT requires reflectivity). Fabricators are encouraged to provide cost-effective methodologies within CDOT regulatory standards with a 2-year warranty. 9. If digitally printed graphics are specified, they are to be printed at a minimum of 1200 DPI using exterior inks and covered with exterior grade, graffiti resistant clear lamination. 10. Visible metal joints must adhere to a fit tolerance of .01”. 11. Aluminum and steel components are to be isolated to prevent galvanic corrosion. H. Fonts/Typefaces The fonts used for this project were selected specifically for this project by the Designer and Owner, and include those listed in the graphic standards. It is the responsibility of the fabricator to purchase the fonts. No substitution of any other typefaces may be made. Under no circumstances are typefaces to be electronically distorted (“squeezed” or “extended”) for purposes of fitting to the specified sign or general alteration of the sign face composition unless noted in the drawings. This includes (but is not limited to) stretching, squeezing, tilting, outlining or shadowing. 1. All letter-forms, symbols or graphics shall be reproduced either by photographic or computer-generated means. Hand-cut characters are not acceptable. Cutting shall be done in such manner that edges and corners of finished letter-forms will be sharp and true. Letter-forms with nicked, cut, ragged, rounded corners, and similar disfigurements will not be acceptable. 2. Typefaces shall be replicated as indicated on the drawing. 3. Ligatures are to be turned off. 4. Apostrophes are to be used, not footmarks. Note that there is a difference in most fonts. 5. Silk-screened and vinyl copy is to match the sheen of the copy panel background (satin). Edges of letters shall be straight and corners sharp. Surface of letters shall be uniform in color finish, and free from pinholes and other imperfections. 6. Silk-screened images shall be executed with photo screens prepared from original art. No hand-cut screens will be accepted. Original art shall be defined as artwork that is a first generation reproduction of the specified art. 7. Silk-screening shall be highest quality, with sharp lines and no sawtooths or uneven ink coverage. Screens shall be photographically produced. Application of inks through screens shall consist of one flood pass and one print pass. Images shall be uniform in color and ink thickness. Images shall be free from squeegee marks and lines resulting from improper print stroke or screen off contact height. Signs shall be placed in adequate drying racks with minimum of 2 inches between racks for ample airflow. Sign racks shall have system of forced airflow between layers to provide proper drying and curing of inks. After signs have dried completely according to the ink manufacturer’s time allowance, signs may be packaged. 8. The edges and corners of vinyl letter-forms shall be sharp and true. Letter-forms with nicked, cut, ragged, rounded (positive or negative) corners, and similar disfigurements will not be acceptable. 9. Letter-forms shall be aligned so as to maintain a base line parallel to the sign format, with margins and layout as indicated on design intent drawings and approved shop drawings. Vertical strokes shall be plumb. 10. Vinyl graphics shall be computer-cut. 11. Letter-forms shall be computer-cut. I. Permits and Variances Fabricator shall be knowledgeable of relevant local code requirements and honor same in fabrication and installation. Where applicable, it is the responsibility of the Fabricator to secure any and all necessary permits for signage installation. This includes all permitting required by CDOT & Estes Park. It is the responsibility of the Owner to secure variances, should any be required. It is the Fabricator’s responsibility to call the appropriate agency/ies to have all underground utilities properly located and marked prior to signage installation. Any damage to below-grade utilities or structures is the responsibility of the Fabricator. 37 32 Estes Park Downtown Wayfinding Signage Program J. Site Visit Prior to installation of the signs, the Fabricator is to visit the proposed site to observe existing conditions and verify all signage required and its location with Owner. At this time the locations shall be staked using a non-permanent visible device such as spray chalk or non-permanent paint. Certain signs may be located on sloped grades and may require uneven footings for each post. Site-verify all locations to determine special requirements for footing templates, if required. The Fabricator is responsible for identifying all utility lines that may be impacted by a sign’s proposed location. The final Sign Location Plan shall be consulted and shall be approved by the Owner to determine the precise location for each sign. Any necessary adjustments will be made with the approval of the Owner. K. Masonry/Footings Any concrete bases for signage are to be poured in place and footings are to extend beneath the frost line, or deeper to meet local code. All footings or bases should be poured within a form and level with grade unless otherwise specified in the design intent drawings. Foundation/footings should not extend above grade more than 2” and exposed edges should be finished with a bevel to prevent chipping. It’s recommended that the concrete be floated by machine or hand before finishing in order to embed larger aggregates especially when part of the footing or base extends above ground. Concrete surface should have a smooth or brushed finish grade appearance. All concrete bases and footings should be edged to break any bond with the form and create a neat appearance. All forms should be removed once the concrete has properly cured. Concrete and reinforcement specifications shall be shown on shop drawing submittals. The fabricator is responsible for the necessary templates, mounting plates and hardware for concrete and masonry bases. All masonry (poured concrete or similar) is to be properly treated and protected to maintain the structural integrity of the masonry work with exposure to all environmental conditions found at the site. For exposed or visible masonry, this shall include the application of protective sealers or similar finishes to diminish the effects of close- proximity sprinkling or irrigation systems. All stacked stone bases shall be smooth and free from obvious defect. Footer or structural elements contained within shall be obscured from view. L. Wind Load Signs and mounting devices shall be engineered to withstand wind loads of 120mph, in addition to the weight of the sign. The Fabricator shall determine appropriate method of anchoring signs to the posts and locations specified to meet these requirements as well as all local code and CDOT requirements. M. Mounting All signs to be mounted level and true. All exposed hardware is to be touch-up painted on site as required. It is preferred that all bolts, nuts, washers, or other fasteners shall be stainless steel. However galvanized steel is acceptable, so long as all exposed surfaces are sealed. While sign type drawings may specify or indicate possible mounting and/or mounting hardware details, the fabricator will be able to substitute equal or better hardware and techniques, based upon their experience with similar mounting situations and as long as the visual appearance of the sign is not compromised from that shown in the design intent drawings. All signage products must be installed such that there are no misalignments between visible components. Fabricator and their installers are expected to have knowledge of ADA mounting guidelines and town zoning codes, general sign locating practices, and any particular unique installations defined by Designer. It is the desire of the Owner that the fabricator follow these guidelines as well as architectural cues in installing for the best visual placement, keeping a reasonable distance from protruding objects. Any signage that is improperly located is to be moved to the proper location by the fabricator, and repairs to wall surfaces and signage are to be at the fabricator’s expense. Specific locations provided within this document are the preferred locations of the Designer, but those locations may be adjusted by the fabricator and Owner if necessary (for example, to avoid underground utilities or meet standard roadway offset requirements or sight distance triangles). If the installers are unable to make a decision about any sign locations, they can contact the Designer, providing a graphic representation of the questionable area, or contact the Owner for on-site options. For signs that are to be mounted to existing utility poles, the structural soundness/capacity of the poles will need to be verified by the Fabricator. NOTE: When installing signs onto existing utility poles, the signs must be installed 40” below any existing power lines, and 12” below any existing communication lines. N. Demolition The fabricator is responsible for the removal and disposal of certain signs if identified in the sign location plan. In addition to the above grade sign removal, the sign foundations, sign anchors and posts must also be removed. If there are electrical connections, they must be properly terminated. O. Site Safety and Restoration During the installation period, the fabricator is responsible for their own safety, and are expected to maintain a safe environment for pedestrians. The fabricator is to keep the Owner’s premises and the adjoining premises, driveways and streets clean and clear. The job site shall be left safe, neat and clean at the completion of each day’s operation. The fabricator is also expected to temporarily maintain old signs in order to continue their directional and identification functions, as well as to maintain signage that meets MUTCD standards during the installation period. At the completion of work, the fabricator shall remove all rubbish, tools, equipment, and surplus materials, from and about the premises, and shall leave the site as originally found. The fabricator shall be responsible for repairing or correcting damage to other contractors’ work resulting from Installer’s work. P. Punchlist It is required that the fabricator complete a walk through with the Owner and Designer immediately following installation to identify any errors, such as construction or installation issues. Such errors are to be corrected in a timely manner, and to the satisfaction of the Owner and at the cost of the Fabricator. Q. Signage Warranty Fabricator is solely responsible for applying products (paints, finishes, components, etc.) according to manufacturers’ specifications and validating the warranty. The fabricator is to provide a written two (2) year full replacement warranty to the Owner that all signs will be free of defects due to craft work and materials including, but not limited to: • bubbling, chalking, rusting or other disintegration of the sign panel, graphics or of the edges; • corrosion appearing beneath paint surfaces of panels, brackets, posts or other support assemblies (except as an obvious result of vandalism or other external damage); • corrosion of fasteners; 38 33Estes Park Downtown Wayfinding Signage Program • assemblies not remaining true and plumb on their supports; • fading, chalking and discoloration of the colors and finishes within the vinyl and paint manufacturer’s stated warranty period; • peeling, delamination or warping (“oil canning”); and • repair and reinstallation of signage due to failed mountings. Fabricator shall also extend in writing to the Owner all manufacturers’ warranties for materials and components used within the signs. It is the fabricator’s responsibility to obtain extended 2-year manufacturer warranties on all paint and powder coat applications. Warranty issues will be addressed by the fabricator within a 2-day time period (either through email communication or a phone call). R. Repair or Replacement Without additional cost to the Owner the fabricator shall repair or replace, including installation, any defective signs or hardware that develop during the warranty period and repair any damage to other work due to such imperfections. The fabricator will be required to fully replace all signs that are in error relative to the working documents (sign message schedule and sign type drawings) that were submitted to the fabricator upon award of contract. Replacement of any warranty items shall occur within a 60-day time-frame. S. CDOT Coordination The Town of Estes Park will be responsible for coordinating the CDOT application forms for the three (3) state highways impacted by the pilot program signage. As per CDOT requirements, traffic control plans for all signage locations within the CDOT right-of-way will need to be submitted by the Fabricator and included in the Town’s CDOT submittal. All pilot program signage will need to conform to CDOT specifications and standards, including but not limited to: break-away details, edge of pavement installation minimum distances, bottom of sign face heights, site distance triangles, protocols for installing signs on sloping ground, minimum letter heights for travel speeds, and wind load engineering. T. Landscape Restoration It will be necessary for the Fabricator to restore the existing landscape conditions around the new pilot program signage, including restoration of ‘soft’ landscape areas and paved, concrete, or other hardscapes. Fabricator will provide images of the pre-construction condition of each sign location, so that verification of landscape restoration can occur after installation. U. Site Distance Triangles All signs need to be installed so they are not impeding site distances for cars merging or pulling out from one roadway or parking area onto another roadway. Both the Town of Estes Park and Larimer County have site distance triangle requirements, and the Fabricator will be responsible for locating signs so that site distances are unimpeded. Site distance triangles also impact the distance between the bottom of each sign face and the ground. In locations along CDOT right-of-ways, the required distance between the bottom of the sign and the ground is 7 feet. Outside of CDOT right-of-ways, the Town of Estes Park would like the distance between the bottom of the sign and the ground for auto-directional signs to also be 7 feet. V. Retroreflective Sheeting Standard For all signs, grade 3 “High Intensity” retroflective sheeting manufactured by ATSM, Inc. is preferred, although other “High Intensity” grade 3 retroreflective sheeting brands will also be acceptable. SIGNAGE INSTALLATION Building Mounted signs are designed to be mounted to existing light poles and buildings. The Google Earth file provides detailed location information for which signs are to be mounted on buildings/light poles, and should be used as the reference file for designing and locating the pilot program signage. See page 19 for the QR code and link to the map. 39 34 Estes Park Downtown Wayfinding Signage Program COLOR, TYPOGRAPHY & ARTWORK Sign Color/Materials Palette Typography Fabricator is responsible for supplying samples for all colors/materials in the palette.

Provide short-term options to help mitigate the anticipated loss of on-street parking along Cleave Street during the Town’s street improvement project. 2. Identify and accommodate the parking and access needs of Cleave Street’s diverse parking user types. 3. Keep the big picture in mind. Consider the larger parking ecosystem, including other projects that anticipate the loss of public parking during the same timeframe (e.g., Downtown Estes Loop). 4. Explore solutions to accommodate the increased parking demand that new development projects along the Cleave Street corridor will bring. 5. Leave the parking and access experience better than we found it. Short-Term / Initial Strategies Goal: Provide reasonable, short-term alternatives to mitigate the anticipated loss of all- day, free on-street parking on Cleave Street. Timing: Construction is anticipated to start in September/October 2023. Anticipated parking loss: 40 spaces o Marked spaces on Cleave Street allow room for approximately 30 vehicles, however field checks have shown up to 40 vehicles on busy days. This number does not include vehicles currently parking on private property, mostly behind the buildings on the South Side of the street. o Type of parkers:  Regular/frequent users: Residents, business owners, property owners, and employees  Transient users: Residential guests, customers o Other uses/needs to consider:  Commercial deliveries  Business/property owner/employee private parking access  Private property loading access  Customer loading/pick-up/drop-off  Resident loading/pick-up/drop-off Recommended mitigation strategies: o Permits for residents, residential guests, business owners and employees that can be used in the Big Horn parking lot (42 stalls), in the on-street spaces along Big Horn (35 stalls) and in the Spruce parking lot (44 stalls). Permits would be first-come, first- serve and follow the same rules as the existing Downtown Residential, Temporary Guest and Employee Convenience permit types. No spaces will be reserved for specific uses or users. o Explore the possibility of the Town leasing parking spaces in the nearby private parking areas. o Work with the selected construction contractor to maintain local access for private businesses during construction. o Define a new permit type for extended loading zone access along Elkhorn when Cleave Street access is restricted for commercial deliveries and/or private business loading. Current loading zone time limit is 30 minutes. 65 10/13/2022 VKS o Work with the Chamber of Commerce and impacted business owners to develop messaging for guests/transient parkers about parking options for business access during construction and post-construction to help educate users about the new road alignment/flow. Bottom line: Absorbing Cleave Street’s on-street parking into other nearby parking areas is a shorter-term solution due to seasonal shifts in utilization. o Mitigation strategies have been developed on proposed construction timing of October 2023 or later. Parking utilization for both Big Horn parking areas and Spruce ranged from 30-54% in the off-season (late October 2021 through April 2022) and can accommodate the increased parking demand (with likely exception around the holidays and during spring break). o Conversely, summer utilization ranges from 67-100% during the weekday and 83- 100% on the weekend. During days and times of peak utilization, typically midday (11 a.m. – 3 p.m., Friday, Saturday and Sunday) the nearby parking areas (Big Horn, Spruce and Tregent) will likely have limited availability to absorb vehicles displaced by the Cleave Street Improvement Project. o Increased parking demand brought by new development along the Cleave Street corridor should also be considered. While this may not be an immediate concern with the proposed timeline of fall/winter construction, the post-construction (“new normal”) reality will include a very challenging parking situation for displaced parkers unless additional supply is added or identified through private partnerships. Mid- to Long-Term Strategies 1. Redesign the Big Horn lot and add another structured level of parking with access off Big Horn (no ramping). Could function as a demonstration project for investment in other smaller structures placed strategically throughout downtown. o Estimated spaces: 88 (44 on each level)  Calculation based on property square footage (14,200 without planter box) / 320 (wide space/conservative – could go to 280, which would yield 100 total spaces, 50 on each level).  Net parking gain: 46 o Anticipated cost per space: $20,000 - $30,000 (incl. design, construction, contingency; no land acquisition cost) with a total cost ranging from $1,760,000 - $2,640,000. o Financing strategies could include one or more of the following:  Parking Fund (Town Special Revenue Fund)  Anticipated balance at end of 2022 is $500,000-$600,000.  A stakeholder process to determine the preferred use of Parking Fund net revenues will be assembled in Fall/Winter 2022. Development of additional parking supply is an eligible use of the Parking Fund.  Revenue bonds  Public-private partnership  Charge for parking in the structure and/or the nearby parking lots that are currently all-day free  Town General Fund  Paid parking program expansion (e.g., increase rates in existing paid areas and/or bring more areas into the program) 2. Consider additional “micro-structures” in the Spruce and Performance Park parking lot areas. 66 10/13/2022 VKS 3. Explore a more impactful mixed-use project in conjunction with an increased investment in structured parking, workforce housing and street-level retail/gathering space. 67
