Box 1200 Estes Park, CO 80517 Dear Steve: Good to see you and Bob and camh up on the progress of your planning efforts. Based on our conversations, I am sending you a revised proposed work plan and budget to produce a unified development code to implement the town's comprehensive plan, including environmental and design performance standards. These standards would be used by a joint town/county planning board to review developments in the county's portion of the planning area as well as the towns'. Procedures establishing this joint review process would also be covered by the new code. I would envision the project having five basic tasks: Task 1: Project initiation, background interviews, and advisory committee organization Task 2: Code diagnosis and public workshop Task 3: Annotated code outline and public workshop Task 4: Draft code with illustrations/graphics; public workshop Task 5: Final code draft and adoption process From a substantive perspective, the key areas of focus would be as follows: Performance Standards: Draft new environmental and design standards to address issues such as slopes/ridgelines, wildlife habitat, grading, revegetation, and riparian areas. Most likely, these would be included in new code design/development standards section. Specific design standards would be produced for the Highway 34 and 36 corridors. New zoning districts: Several new zoning districts will need to be created, most notably a new county/town accommodation district with more of a residential/small-scale character. A new highway commercial district with improved bulk plane, design, and 1 15, a.. 441:e ; clf,fi ''"!,-,id,, Ni!1:- Â·, other standards might also be warranted. Similarly, new planned unit development regulations reflecting modern practice are needed. Revised/updated district standards: Some districts would remain in place, but changes are needed to implement the plan. For example, the Downtown Commercial District regulations might be revised to encourage second-floor housing. Revamped code format: The current code is in a very traditional format. Some significant changes are needed to make it more user friendly, including illustrations of key standards, flow charts depicting key processes and procedures, and other tools such as page headings, a measurement section, etc. New joint town/county review procedure: Based on the recently adopted legislation authorizing a joint town/county planning board, procedures must be adopted to facilitate joint application of new district regulations and performance standards. The proposed budget is $104,435, including the adoption process. If we are able to get underway by March 1, 1997, we believe the revised code call be produced by February 1998, and the adoption process begun at that time We would anticipate having a design firm (such as Design Studios West or RNL) on the team to assist in illustrating the development standards and producing design standards for the highway districts. As you know, I am excited about the prospect of working with you and the town to implement the comprehensive plan. The prospect of joint town/county review standards and procedures makes this a potentially ground-breaking effort. Please do not hesitate to call me if you have any questions or comments. Sinc e~, Christopher Duerksen Managing Director 2 616. ESTES PARK UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE WORK PLAN AND BUDGET The suggested work plan set forth below reflects Clarion Associates experience in drafting codes throughout Colorado and the United States. Task 1 -Project Initiation, Background Interviews, and Advisory Committee Organization . Plan and Code Review. Prior to any meetings with staff, Clarion would review in greater detail the existing town and county codes, the new town comprehensive plan,Â· and other relevant development ordinances and policies. This review will draw on Clarion's national experience with ways in which other jurisdictions address issues similar to those with which Estes Park is grappling. This review will form the basis for the meetings with key staff and the technical advisory committee as described below. Meetings with Key Staff and Technical Advisory Committee. Following the initial document review, there will be an initial, intensive discussion of land regulation issues with selected town staff. That discussion will give Clarion a clear understanding of how the current code works (and doesn't work) in practice, the key issues and practical problems that need to be addressed, and the portions of the new comprehensive plan that may be difficult to implement using the current code. This review will build on the preliminary code review work Clarion completed for the town in 1996. With staff's guidance, the consultants will also interview other key players in the development process (including developers, decision-makers, citizen groups, National Park Service staff, and elected officials) in small groups or one-on-one to get their views on the same topics. Town staff will accompany members of the consulting team to a meeting with county staff. Additionally, discussions will be initiated with town staff regarding the type and number of illustrations and graphics and format issues. Public Participation Process. Building on the successful comprehensive plan participation process, it is our understanding that the town will appoint a small (5-10 member) technical advisory committee to work with Clarion Associates and town staff during the course of the project. The advisory committee will act as a sounding board, commenting on drafts of the code throughout the process, and as a conduit of information to and from the members' constituent groups. The committee will not be expected to reach consensus on the new code, but to contribute their best thinking on key issues that emerge during the drafting process. Additionally; the consulting team will conduct three public meetings during the project to review drafts of a code diagnosis, annotated code outline, and initial code draft. Team members will also be available for presentations to civic groups and interviews with the media while they are in Estes Park for these and other meetings.

Town staff will assume responsibility for the logistics of all meetings during the course of the project, including meetings of the advisory committee and the community wide public meetings. Clarion prides itself on strong public involvement procedures, because we believe they are essential to the success of any code revision project. We also pride ourselves on being excellent communicators, meeting facilitators, and educators who can build public support for changes in land use regulations - even on controversial issues. With a strong citizen/stakeholder involvement process, adoption of significant code revisions need not be a war-like experience -- without it, adoption is often impossible.

Clarion Associates January 1997 Estes Park Unified Development Code Project--Work Plan and Budget Page 2 269. , Task 2 -Code Diagnosis (and Public Workshop) Code Diagnosis. Based on information gathered to date, Clarion will prepare a diagnosis of the strengths and weaknesses of the current town code, including (1) ways in which the current code is ineffective or frustrating to use; (2) needed legal-related changes; (3) potential substantive amendments and standards; and (4) ways in which the current code will be inadequate to implement the new comprehensive plan. The diagnosis will also suggest changes needed in the county zoning resolution to implement the comprehensive plan. Meetings. Clarion will meet in Estes Park with the town and county staffs and advisory committee to discuss the code diagnosis. The consulting team will also convene a workshop at a time convenient to the general public to "test" its information about the strengths and weaknesses of the current system and the key elements of the comprehensive plan and to evaluate which issues are particularly sensitive to the public and stakeholders. During the workshop, the team will use an informal approach to summarize and present information obtained from key players in plain English, solicit reactions from the public, and encourage suggestions about what types of alternative approaches to identified problems would be most acceptable.

Task 3 - Annotated Outline (and Public Workshop) Annotated Outline. Based on the results of Tasks. 1 and 2, Clarion Associates would draft a detailed, annotated outline of a revised town development code and proposed amendments to the county zoning resolution. This outline would highlight new amendments to existing sections of the code, new sections to be added to the code, and sections to be deleted from the current code. In addition, the outline will highlight how the important elements of the comprehensive plan will be reflected in the code, and will address all of those elements addressed in the code diagnosis. The outline would include suggestions and options for consolidation of zone districts, improvements to development review standards, organizational and format changes, and improvements to the efficiency and understandability of the development review process. We recommend the inclusion of this annotated outline step because it helps clarify how new and old sections of the code would work as a whole, and gives staff an early opportunity to make corrections or suggest other approaches before aÂ»complete draft has been produced. This outline would be circulated to town and county staffs and the advisory committee for comment. Public Workst -3. Once the outline has been revised to include comments from town staff and the advisory committee, the consultant team would meet with county officials and also convene a public workshop to review the outline. The team would solicit information about whether the public understands the outline, where they would look for the answers to specific questions, where they are confused, and what alternatives would be clearer to them. Once the outline has again been revised to reflect input from the public workshop, it would serve as the basis for ordinance revisions undertaken in Task 4.

Task 4 - Draft Code (and Public Workshop) Staff Draft. Based on the annotated outline and responses received, Clarion would develop draft code revisions that are user friendly, include substantive changes in the development standards and review processes as appropriate, provide graphics of important substantive standards and concepts, and provide illustrations of applicable procedures. This draft will be primarily for review and discussion with staff as discussed below. This draft would integrate the current town zoning and subdivision codes into a unified development code and include, but not be limited to, the following elements: â€¢ Joint town/county review procedures for development in the Estes Valley planning area. â€¢ A sensitive lands overlay district that would contain new development standards to protect critical natural resource areas. â€¢ Design and development standards for the Highway 34 and 36 corridors. (To be produced by the design firm selected for the consulting team by the town. This will not include a full-blown character study of these corridors.) â€¢ A new planned unit development section to promote cluster development and protection of open space. â€¢ Zoning district amendments, including revised industrial, accommodation, and commercial districts. â€¢ Open space set-aside provisions. â€¢ Revised administrative approval procedures for final plats. â€¢ Suggested illustrations to explain clearly selected development review standards. The Clarion team would also work with staff to review the land use map produced during the comprehensive planning process and assist the staff in reconciling and refining the map to ensure that it is consistent with the revised code. Public Draft. Based on staff and advisory committee comments, the consultants will revise the draft to create a second draft of the new land regulation documents for public presentation and discussion. The draft will address all of those issues listed in the code diagnosis to implement the plan. Illustrations and graphics will be revised as necessary. Public Workst-3. Clarion would then convene a public workshop to present and review the public draft of the new development code. Clarion will work with staff to determine whether the final language is understandable to potential applicants, whether technical distinctions between Clarion Associates January 1997 Estes Park Unified Development Code Project-Work Plan and Budget Page 5 32. 81 different types of regulations or procedures are understandable, and whether graphics and illustrations are clear and communicate the intended message. At this stage, the town may wish to consider optional services such as convening special working groups on discrete subjects needing further discussion and holding additional public information meetings.

By under- standing specific design elements and how they contribute to the town's character and image, design regulations can accurately identie specific elements to ensure the architectural compatibility of proposed developments. Initially, each district should be photographed and analyzed. The exist- ing built environment is then dissected piece by piece. Recessed doors, kickplates, tree spacing, and curbcut locations are a few design elements that help to define the character of a commercial street. How wide is the street? Do existing commercial buildings abut the public right-of-way? Is signage integrated with the architectural details? Each ofthese questions address specific attributes ofthe street and influence the character and image of the area. A number of important design elements have been addressed in the ToWn of Estes Park Comprehensive Plan. These elements should be used as a springboard for more detailed design reg- ulations and will help to establish the goals and objectives for each individual district. For instance, in Chapter 6 of the Planning Area Guidelines, guidelines are listed for the Downtown sub-area. A number of the guidelines are specific; DT3 addresses building heights and requires 36' buildings to be located "only on Moraine Avenue and the north side ofCleave Street if a third floor is used for residential." Design regulations regarding architectural detail, building materials, landscaping, site furnishings, parking, signage and lighting should be similarly detailed to ensure thar all acets of development projects meet the expectations of town residents. - The Town of Estes Park has been divided into specific districts, each containing a variety of land uses and physical attributes. However, to ensure continuity throughout the town, the districts need to be analyzed for similarities and design regulations applied accordingly to promote visual conti- nuity from district to district and to unify the town. The design regulations should contain a number of general design standards that can be applied to each district. Design regulations for each district should respond to specific land uses and current and future zoning. For example, pedestrian amenities such as sidewalks and site furnishings may not be appropriate in each district. The design regulations should be used as a tool to maintain and Strengthen the rural mountain character of Estes Park under increased development pressures. When used in conjunction with the Town of Estes Park Comprehensive Plan, the design regulations will allow residents and developers to work together to achieve the town's vision for the future. 2/12/97 36. .

Community Development Committee Museum Monthly Report Thursday, March 6, 1997 1. Exhibit Renovation Update This month we will complete major construction, finish an exhibit text draft, and start producing graphics. We'll prepare a list of the objects we'11 use, start the paperwork for loans from other museums, and start crafting individual object mounts. A timeline for the completion of the renovation is on the reverse of this report. Last week we received the exhibit panels which were constructed at the Buffalo Bill Historical Center in Cody. We also painted walls and panels with the help of several volunteers including Mayor Dekker. 2. Women's History Month Activities March 14 Women Homesteaders Program: Enda Mills Kiley talks about her mother, Ester Burnell Mills, Mun. Bldg. Rm. 203,7:00 p.m., free. In the conference center case, Four Women Homesteaders will be exhibited all month. 3. Conservation Project Support Grant On February 28 we submitted a grant application to the Institute of Museum and Library Services for a $38,000 upgrade to our collections storage area. If awarded, this project would begin in October, 1997 and take two years. It includes museum standard storage furniture, a fire rated drywall entryway, and volunteer training to rehouse collections. 4. Museum Computer Network At the suggestion of David Steiner, Vice-President of the Museum's Advisory Board, we are joining the Museum Computer Network, a non-profit professional organization which helps museums develop, manage and convey information through automation. The organization will provide access to the latest information and professional contacts in the areas of photograph digitization, web sites, computerization of collections records, and other automation issues facing museums today. 5. Estes Park Museums Promotional Efforts Per our strategic plan, we are continuing to develop ways to coordinate information about area museums. Jack Melton from the Dorsey Museum, who is on our Advisory Board, is working with staff to install an exhibit in the conference center case this spring, and on an article and map to appear in the Trail-Gazette Vacation Edition. In the future we will probably plan a Museum Weekend similar to the Art Walk. 41. 2 â‚¬6 co E .9 m m C a-E O - 12) 610 -JeJ 42.

The BIGHORN CHALLENGE, consisting of both a 5K and 1 IK run/walk, was touted LAST YEAR as one or the more difficult events or its type In the western part of the United States! 31 Because of the degree of difficulty, this event has on-going potential to grow into o very special race, drawing elite runners as well as those who enjoy o challenging run/walk to benefit a great cause, while enjoying the amblance of Estes Pork. Running is onvironmentally compatible with our beautiful surroundings. To insure this compatibility to its fullest, K-ROCKY has AGAIN chosen to employ a professional events coor- dinator to manage the run. BKB Ltd. the event coordinator that managed the BIGHORN CHALLENGE-lost _year, did so with fIawless performance ond K-ROCKY wishes to duplicate our success using the some talent. K-ROCKY will again prepare over 10,000 2-color brochures to be delivered and distrib- uted at similar events like The Boldor Boulder, LoDo Classic, Coltonwood Classic and others to draw runners to the BIGHORN CHALLENGE. Over 50 volunteers will be used to assist BKB Ltd. in managing portions of the race. These volunteers oro provided by our Co-sponsor HEALTH- SOUTH and our beneficiary, United Corebral Palsy. As was tho case last year, traffic conos will be picked up along the course directlv after the last runner passes by in order to avoid traffic congestion, and flyers announcing the exact date and time will be delivered to EVERY driveway and business door along the course 1 -2 weeks BEFORE the event. ( see attached flyer, '96) K-ROCKY was congratulated by Police Chief Randy Repolo for our superior performance ond attention to detail with lost years race. Wc intend to duplicate our efforts with the some enthusiasm and vigor to provide an even better event for our community to bo proud of, The BIGHORN CHALLENGE.
