The Chamber prepared bid specifications for two routes, YMCA to Downtown and Marys Lake Lodge to Downtown. One bid was received from Charles Tour & Travel. The bid price for the YMCA Route was $18,815, and $8,875 for the Marys Lake Lodge Route, for a total bid of $27,690. A cost sharing approach is proposed as follows: 1. YMCA Route: June 16 - August 25. To/From YMCA and Downtown Transportation Center starting at noon every day, every hour until 5:00 p.m., with a minimum 32 passenger vehicle. PROPOSED COST SHARING YMCA Share $ 4,500 Town Share 14,315 TOTAL $18,815 Under this proposal, the YMCA would also receive 300 season tickets for their employees. All other riders would pay a $3 round trip fare, to be collected and retained by Charles Tour & Travel as allowable revenue. 1/7 ' ''· ' : ' 'v ' ":"- . :-cTE p.\ 1'1 0(3 P.05-1 - • FAX<·3031 38(1-0249 (JO.ill,UNIA' DEN'ELOPMENT • }-AX (303! 686-1.'1(iti (3Ti li
1 Town of Estes Park Estes Park, Colorado 80517 TRANSPORTATION SERVICES BID -2- May 2, 1995 2. Marys Lake Lodge: June 16 - September 28. To/From Marys Lake Lodge and Downtown Transportation Center 9 times per day from 6:30 a.m. to midnight, with a minimum 14 passenger vehicle. PROPOSED COST SHARING National Park Village South (16 beds) $2,152 McDonald's (16 beds) · 2,152 Barlow/Poppys/Mama Rose's (16 beds) 2,152 Town (18 beds maximum) 2,419 TOTAL (66 beds) $8,875 The 18 beds shown as the Town's share are the independent and small employers who have to date not agreed to an up-front payment. Marys Lake Lodge would sell passes to these beds/employers at a rate of $60/month or $150/season. The revenue from these sales would be used to decrease each cost share shown above proportionately. As an example, if all 18 beds were sold at the full seasonal rate (unlikely), the Town's share would decrease to $1,684 and the 16-bed shares would decrease to $1,497. Charles Tour would also be authorized to collect single trip fares ($4-5) as allowable revenue. The Chamber of Commerce will prepare letter agreements between all parties, and will sign and administer the contract with Charles Tour & Travel. All parties have agreed to the proposed cost sharing approach, except for formal approval by the Town. The Town's maximum, obligation for both routes is $16,734. The 1995 Budget contains $20,000 for a trolley subsidy. RECOMMENDATION: Recommend to the Town Board the Mayor be authorized to sign the letter agreements for transportation cost sharing for $14,315 for the YMCA route, and a maximum of $2,419 for the Marys Lake Lodge route. 13

The station would broadcast prerecorded messages to alert motorists to wildlife watching opportunities and techniques. Total cost of the application and radio station would be paid by the Accommodation Association. The Association has also requested the Town's help in getting the appropriate highway signage installed so people know where to tune their radios.
