Staff (Greg Sievers and Betty Kilsdonk) worked with Mark Westover, owner, and Thomas Beck, architect, to pare down the list of construction items and prepare a bare-bones Guaranteed Maximum Price of $349,603, to fit within the $350,000 allotted for this design/build project in our budget. On January 13, 2004, the Friends ofthe Museum presented a check to the Town inthe amount of $75,000 to assist in funding the Museum expansion. The money was obtained from the various fund-raising events held by the Friends over the past ten years. The Friends gift presents us with the opportunity to restore some of the items deleted at the beginning of the project, as well as maximize the facility's effectiveness to the community. Attached is a three-page list of items we wish to obtain with the funds. For philosophical reasons the Friends have requested that the Town assist with electrical, general conditions and contractor fees for these items as a match for the Friends gift. The first page of the list contains items for which no contractor assistance is required. The second page contains items requiring contractor electrical work. Total cost for electrical work, general conditions and contractor fees for these items would be $2371. The last page contains items that the contractor must purchase and install. Cost for general conditions and contractor fees for these items would be $2,675. Total expenditures for the Friends would be $71,550. Total expenditures by the Town would be $5046. The remaining $3450 would be used for any unforeseen expenses or additional items as the project nears completion. Cost/Budget: Cost: $5046. Budget: The Community Reinvestment Fund will have an estimated fund balance of $925,308 at the end of2004. Action Staff requests permission to spend $5046 from the Community Reinvestment Fund for additional items (see attached) and a change order to the contract. 1.

Collections Review Collections activities increased in most areas in 2003 over 2002. Museum staff fielded 68 research requests and spent 114 hours with researchers in 2003. (In 2002 we had 43 research requests requiring 50 hours). We filled 26 photo orders, reproducing a total of 138 images, not including the panorama prints which were produced through the gift shop. Seven panorama prints (one framed) have been sold. In 2002 we had 15 photo orders, reproducing 38 images. A total of 10,517 object, photograph and library records have been entered in the Museum's database, with 2391 of those records entered in 2003. This is over 1000 records more than we entered in 2002. Twenty-four new accessions (142 objects) were accepted in the Museum's collection in 2003. This is just slightly below 2002 totals (26 accessions, 162 objects). The Museum borrowed approximately 175 objects and made two loans of 15 objects in 2003. (In 2002 the Museum borrowed 152 objects and loaned 5 items.) Museum collections are closed during the renovation to protect objects and records from adverse impacts during construction; Collections Curator Lisel Record is on leave until June. Grants Submitted Staff recently submitted a $10,000 El Pomar Foundation grant for general operating support on behalf of the Friends of the Museum, and a $24,555 Institute of Museum and Library Services grant to hire a data entry technician to complete the Museum's transfer from paper to computerized collections records. Grant Received The Museum received a grant of $610 from the Lions Club to redo the Native American children's interactive in the Tracks in Time permanent exhibit. The new exhibit, which will focus on the relationship between Native American peoples and their environment, will be completed in time for the reopening of the Museum on July 3. Exhibit Activity In addition to the children's interactive area, Robin Stitzel is revamping some of the other Tracks in Time exhibits in preparation for the reopening and to accommodate changes in layout necessitated by the addition of the meeting room and foyer. She is also preparing a new exhibit for the reopening, Wild Neighbors. Museum Expansion Web Page We created a new page on the Museum's website to track the progress on the expansion. Photos and updates are available at www.estesnet. com/Museum/Expansion. htm. Friends Publication Series The Friends of the Museum have published two books in their series with Dr. James Pickering, In the Vale of Elkhanah: The Tahosa Valley World of Charles Edwin Hewes, and The Ways of the Mountains: Thornton Sampson, Agnew Vaille and Other Tragedies in High Places. They will be publishing an additional four books of historical narratives (300 copies each) to raise funds for the Museum over the next year or so. Town of Estes Park Community Development Committee March 4,2004 SENIOR CENTER REPORT GENERAL OPERATIONS Landscaping, garden and parking lot update: Town staff is coordinating with SC INC for the completion ofthe irrigation project this spring. The landscaping will occur in spring with sod, native grass es, bushes and plantings. Town staff and Senior Center board member Marsha Yelick and I have met and began to identify flowers and plants for the garden. Marsha is a Master Gardener. Town facilities manager Greg Sievers reported to the Board that the parking lots go out for bid in March and the prep, paving and striping will occur in late August, September and early October when all other town improvements are done. Senior Center Inc. has supported the irrigation and landscaping project financially as well. Site use data: There were 12,510 sign-in visitors in 2003. Year to date, we have had almost 2000 sign in visitors and see a general increase in daily visits. Citizens are coming for activities and staying for lunch, often bringing new people into the Center. SENIOR CENTER BOARD ACTIVITY General Information: The Board encourages citizens and businesses to buy Senior Center memberships. The Board has also been active in selling advertisements for their quarterly newsletter. Elections were held in January to fill three director terms on the board of Senior Center Inc. Attached is a list of the current Board of Directors. The Board is very active in professionally managing the endowment funds with good return on the initial investment. The Board is active in supporting and planning program events and fundraisers. The Board established a by-laws sub-committee and an additional budget sub-committee this year. This committee has created a budget that provides funding for programming needs, furnishings, and fundraising events. Additionally, the Larimer County Commissioners divided $10,000 between 4 senior centers in the county. EPSC was awarded $2475.00 in a lump sum payment to be used for programming needs this year. Stratezic Planning Meetings: The Board has approved a plan to expand the membership of the strategic planning committee of SC INC. The Board approved a plan to identify and schedule a series of meetings along with the stated purpose for those meetings, to identify additional interested players for consideration on the committee, to speak with and invite these potential parties to an educational session about the Center, to examine the current model of planning, to consider the optional use of an outside facilitator at some point if needed, and finally to devote all of 2004 to draft a revised Strategic Plan. This end product would go for approvals from the Senior Center Board and presentation to the Community Development Committee in or around December 2004 or January 2005. Page 1 of 3 FO00 SERVICES PROGRAM Meals en Wheels: The Neals on Wheels Committee is working toward quality improvement in service delivery, client satisfaction and driver training areas. Meetings were held with driver coordinators, the caterers and contact made with drivers and clients. The committee is developing drafts for a mission statement and clearer eligibility requirements. The group established new driving training procedures, operational instruction guidelines and client intake forms. The committee is developing working drafts of a mission statement and eligibility requirements that meet the goals and needs of the clients in the community and take the Town of Estes P ark' s and Senior Center Inc.'s mission statements into consideration. The committee is developing materials to use for promotion of the program and is identifying ways to educate the public. A driver training workshop was held on February 24,2004 at the Center. Drivers received the new driver guidelines and procedures, scheduling information and were offered support and information from the Volunteers of America/RSVP program. Meals on Wheels data: There were 3188 meals on wheels delivered in 2003. For 2004, we are currently delivering over 300 meals a month and expect the program to expand once the committee work is complete. This compares similarly with the same period last year. Coneregate Meals: There 8168 meals served at the Center in 2003. For 2004, we will have served over 740 meals year to date at the end of February. This is a significant increase of more than 225 meals from this period last year. The congregate meal program is expected to grow in 2004 with the addition of new programming, new members and widespread publicity and word of mouth about the food quality and programming efforts. UNITED WAY REPORTING Client satisfaction survevs: The United Way provides a portion of the funding for the Senior Center meal program. As part ofthat award, we are required to file reports and obtain customer satisfaction. We surveyed 60 congregate meal clients and 13 meals on wheels clients in January. They were surveyed on nutritional quality, food choices and whether or not they felt a decreased sense of isolation by using the Center or receiving contact from meals on wheels drivers. Overwhelmingly the respondents gave the program high levels of satisfaction in all areas. CATERING COMPANY Catering for All Occasions continues to provide high quality meals for all programs. Clients have stated overwhelming satisfaction with food quality, variety and special events. CAO is seeking to develop their catering business for events at the Center and in other settings in the community. CAO is offering a free meal for all brand new 2004 Senior Center memberships and has offered a free meal to Senior Center members on their birthday in 2004. Year to date, CAO has given 13 meals for brand new memberships. The Caterers, myself and the Board are working together to promote site use rental of the Center to increase the revenue base for both entities. Page 2 of 3 PR(pGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES We offer a wide variety of continuing and new activities, programs and day trips. Members and visitors have responded positively to a majority of the new offerings. Daily visitation and interest is rising. We continue to publicize these activities locally. We have invited Front Range senior centers to come for a seniorcenter lunch and Estes Park Museum tour with a good response for summer scheduling. Wesee a large response to holiday lunches and programs, with 140 for the Christmas feast and 90 for the Valentine luncheon.

The ceremony is open to the public and will be followed by lunch at the Center for a nominal fee ($6.00 or $4.00 for those over 60). Estes Park residents and organizations played a prominent role in helping Special Transit acquire the vehicle by raising or contributing the entire 20% funding match of $7,900 required by the federal funding source used to purchase vehicles dedicated specifically for transporting elders and people with disabilities. Estes Park Senior Center Inc, Estes Park Community Foundation, the Estes Park Car Club and the Mason Charitable Trust were among groups that contributed $5,100 in funding while the remaining $2,800 came from individual donors. Special Transit is a Boulder-based nonprofit organization that provides door-through-door service to people who cannot drive due to age, health, and disability or income challenges. They have been providing service in the Estes Valley for the past five years and last year provided over 3,600 trips to Estes Park residents.

Richard Homeier Vice President Cc: Ross Stephen Sally Park Page 1 of 2 Will Birchfield From: Will Birchfield Sent: Thursday, February 12, 2004 4:47 PM To: Greg White; Randy Repola CC: Alison Chilcott; Bill Linnane; Bob Goehring; Bryon Horgen; Greg Sievers; Scott Dorman; Todd Steichen; Vickie O'Connor; Code Enforcement Subject: Fall River Village MEMORANDUM To: All Affected Departments From: Will Birchfield, Chief Building Official Date: February 12,2004 Re: Fall River Village The mission of the Estes Park Department of Building Safety is to provide quality customer service. The customers include, but are not limited to individuals, property owners, business owners, citizens, and numerous public and private entities. Often, service takes the form of providing accurate information in a timely manner. Typically that information is relative to Municipal Codes. The Codes themselves empower and direct staff to interpret, apply and enforce Town regulations. However, there are occasions when the intent of a specific code requirement is neither clear nor certain. At other times some code requirements appear to be inappropriate and/or inadequate or even antiquated. None the less, staff is charged to interpret and apply adopted Codes; and, unless specifically stated within the text of Code, staff has no authority to grant variances, exceptions, or relief from compliance. That prerogative is the exclusive domain of the Town Board of Trustees and its duly appointed Boards and Committees. For that purpose, I am requesting the Community Development Committee to review the circumstances of the homeowners at Fall River Village Mobile Home Park. I recommend the waiving of the following fees: 1. $200 Contractor Business License Fee 2. $50 House Moving Permit Fee 2/27/04 Page 2 of 2 3, $50 House Demo Permit Fee In no way, do I encourage the waiving of any other code requirements including all required submittals, permits, inspections, and/or other processes. I offer the following considerations as appropriate interpretations and applications of the relative sections of the Estes Park Municipal Code. 1. The Estes Park Municipal Code, Chapter 14.12, adopts by reference the 1997 Uniform Building Code (1997 UBC). The 1997 UBC, Section 101.3 regulates the demolition of buildings and structures. Permits are required to demo buildings and structures within Town boundaries. There is a fee of $50 assessed per demo permit. The 1997 UBC, Section 104.2.1 empowers the Building Official to adopt and enforce rules and supplemental regulations to clarify the application of its provisions. Section 107.2 requires the building official to determine the valuation ofjobs, which directly influences the fees assessed for permits. Based on Estes Park Municipal Code 14.28.020 that assesses $50 for a building moving permit, as Chief Building Official, I adopted and enforce a fee of $50 for a building demo permit. Additionally, I believe it appropriate to allow one permit to cover the demo of numerous structures, providing all such structures have the same address, such as 511 W. Elkhorn Avenue. However, all structures under one permit must be demoed within 6 months. 2. Regarding Town licensing requirements, the Estes Park Municipal Code, Chapter 5.20 requires building contractors working within Town boundaries to obtain a yearly business license from the Town Clerk's Office. Section 5.20.020 specifically includes demolition contractors and house moving contractors. Section 5.20.030 establishes building contractor license fees at $200 per year. However, subsection (2) recognizes the practice of prorating fees based on the calendar month. I suggest if a contractor is working in Estes Park on one job, and/or only for a limited time, such as 2 or 3 months to relocate mobile homes, that contractor might also be a candidate for a prorated business license fee. 3. Chapter 14.28 of the Estes Park Municipal Code regulates the moving of buildings within Town boundaries. Permits are required; and, Section 14.28.020 establishes a $50 fee per permit. The Municipal Code has additional specific requirements of compliance prior to the issuance of a building moving permit. It is common for Codes to have general requirements without specifying what standards to use to assure approval. For example, numerous sections of the 1997 UBC require "an approved automatic sprinkler system shall be installed." What is an "approved sprinkler system?" It is any system the building official will approve. It is the general practice of building officials to approve compliance based on accepted engineering practices, listings by independent third parties such as Underwriters Laboratory, and the use of nationally recognized standards such as National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA) 13 for sprinkler systems. I believe it is appropriate to use CDOT standards to determine when Town permits are required to move buildings within Estes Park boundaries. CDOT requires permits "...for aliloads that exceed 8'6" in width, 14'6" in height, or 75" in length." The Town of Estes Park Department of Building Safety is directly involved in the issuance of building demo permits and building moving permits and their associated inspections. The department is also involved with monitoring and enforcement of building contractor licensing. Town staff is aware of the circumstances relative to the homeowners in the Fall River Village Mobile Home Park. Community Development staff is committed to providing quality customer service by assisting the homeowners in complying with Municipal Code requirements. To that end, staff is currently active on at least two fronts. First, we are preparing a handout package to provide accurate and useful information in the timeliest manner possible. Second, I discussed this matter with the Community Development Committee at their February 5th meeting. As a result of that discussion, I have researched and prepared these recommendations to take back to the Community Development Committee, requesting a review of the circumstances regarding the homeowners at the mobile home park; and, I am requesting direction as to the intent and application of specific Municipal Code requirements and a determination if any exceptions and/or relief are warranted, and if so to what extent. Your review and comment on this issue is requested and appreciated. Please reply as soon as possible, but no later than February 20,2004. 2/27/04 Page 1 of 1 W ill Birchfield From: Greg Sievers Sent: Thursday, February 05, 2004 12:37 PM To Will Birchfield CC Bill Linnane Subject: mobile homes I would like to recommend the Public Works Department as well as the L & P division, wave any fee' s in regards to the relocation of mobile homes out of the Fall River Village project. I think it is still important to keep safety and transport protocol in place whether it be with our dept.s, the police or CDOT but also assist in expediting the actual move. Seems there is Code language in 14-7a - 14-8 that outlines much of this.

I will answer as follows: 1. The new minimum height of overhead electric/telephone/etc. is 20 feet. Old installations could be 18 feet. 2. This would be required for the wide load/oversize load permit required by CDOT maintenance available through Greeley office, Cindy Shrout at 970-350-2116. 3. This would be required for the permit above. 4. There may be some special traffic control required in areas like the narrows of 34. 5. The oversize permit from CDOT and notification of the State Patrol would be required. 6. No comment. Just give Cindy a call about the permit requirments and Larry Haas may be able to give you some advise about the possible traffic control requirements.

Demo Permits As Chief Building Official, and by authority of the 1997 Uniform Building Code (1997 UBC), I established a $50 fee for demo permits. $50 is the same as other fees established in the Community Development Policy Manual, and in the Estes Park Municipal Code, i.e. flood plain development permits and moving buildings permits. A demo permit and a $50 fee is required and justified by the 1997 UBC. Also, by my authority as Chief Building Official, I created a form that requires property owner's permission prior to staff issuing building permits to lessees and/or tenants. It is my position that property owners are ultimately responsible for all conditions and activities on their property; therefore, staff should not issue permits without property owner' s written permission. Does staff need property owner's permission to issue homeowners permits to demo mobile homes/manufactured homes, their additions and accessory structures when the structures are to be demoed on someone else's property, i.e. the mobile home park? 2. Moving Building Permits My interpretation of the Estes Park Municipal Code 14.28.010 includes mobile homes and manufactured homes. I believe it is appropriate to use CDOT standards to determine when Town pennits are required to move buildings within Estes Park boundaries. CDOT requires permits "...for allloads that exceed 8'6" in width, 14'6" in height, or 75" in length." Estes Park Municipal Code 14.28.010 states "Any permit which may be issued under the provisions of this Chapter shall provide that the persons to whom it is issued expressly agree to save the Town harmless on account of any damage or injury to the street, alley or public ground so used, and on account of any damage or injury that may be sustained by any person or persons by reason of the use and occupancy of the street by the person so obtaihing a permit." There is no such provision on the current application/permit forms. Do we need a form? If so, do you need to draft the form or can a copy of Chapter 14.28 be attached to the current form with a signature block stating the applicant has read and agrees with the conditions? Estes Park Municipal Code 14.28.050 states "A surety bond in an amount to be determined by the Building Official shall be required before any permit is issued hereunder, when in the discretion of the Building Official the building to be moved is of such size or condition that the movement might result in damage to Town property or to the property of any other person, and a certificate of insurance must be furnished to the Building Official in a minimum amount of the applicable limits of the Colorado Governmental Immunity Act." I need direction as how to enforce this provision. What is the minimum amount of the Colorado Governmental Immunity Act? 3. Community Development Committee Authority Does Community Development Committee have the authority to direct staff to waive fees and or other municipal code requirements? 4. Informational Packet Staff is preparing a packet to handout to the applicants. Do you want to review this packet? TH E LANE 111 GROUP, INC. P.O.

Pursuant to our discussion, please be advised that Fall River Village and the Robert Arno Filbey Irrevocable Trust do not at this time, grant any form o f permission to any one person, entity, mobile home owner, demolition firm, etc. to destroy, demolish or other wise disassemble any trailer, mobile home, deck, building, shed or appurtenance while physically located on the property of Fall River Village Mobile Home Park. At present our counsel is reviewing the forms and requirements of Estes Park for demolition permits and the permission requirements of Fall River Village and the Robert Arno Filbey Irrevocable Trust. After our counsel has reviewed the various issues associated with demolition of mobile homes, etc. on our property and advised us of the best methodology to consider with respect to allowing demolition to occur on our property, we will advise you in writing of our decision. It is our intention to assist the tenants as much as possible and to that end we will apply our best efforts as we review the implications of allowing demolition activities on our property. Thank you for your assistance in this matter and again, we are not providing permission for any type of demolition on our property at this time.

AUTHENTICATION The Assessor issues an authentication for a move permit in order to certify the amount of taxes to be collected for the current year (2004). * If the mobile home stays in the county and the account is to remain active, an authentication is needed and only the $10 tax certification fee is paid. * If the mobile home is to be moved out of state, to a dealer's lot or demolished we will prorate the current year's taxes. This is done in increments by month from the 16th thru the next 15th. ( i.e. January 16th-February 15th-1 month collected; Feb. 16th thru March 15th-2 months collected and so on). * If the mobile home is moved to another county within the state of Colorado we will collect for the full current year. The county it moves to won't be able to put the mobile on their tax roll till the following year. Assessor's Office 498-7073 MOVE PERMITS Generally a move permit is obtained by the house mover. For travel on Colorado highways, you will need to obtain an Oversize/Overweight permit from the Colorado Department of Transportation.

Pathways To Spirit 4307 Goldeneye Drive, FTC 282-8573 LARIMER COUNTY ZONING AND BUILDING CODES STORAGE OF MOBILE HOMES It is not permissible to move a mobile home onto a parcel and " store" it (occupied/unoccupied) in unincorporated Larimer County. USE OF A MOBILE HOME FOR A STORAGE BUILDING It is not permissible to use a mobile home as a storage building or out building in unincorporated Larimer County. ZONING If you are planning on moving the mobile home onto vacant private land, as a dwelling, the requirements from the Larimer County Land Use Code are as follows: SECTION 18.2 MANUFACTURED HOMES AND MANUFACTURED HOME PARKS 18.2.1. Manufactured homes outside manufactured home parks. A. Any manufactured home that is transportable over state highways in two or more pieces and is assembled at the building site may be placed on any legal lot that is zoned for ' single family use. B.

The manufactured home and any additions to it must be permanently anchored to a permanent foundation; 2. The manufactured home and any additions to it must have standard exterior siding; 3. The manufactured home and any additions to it must have a pitched roof structure with standard house shingles or other standard roofing materials; 4. The manufactured home must be incorporated into a larger structure that includes one or more of the following: additional bedrooms; recreation room; patio; carport or garage; and 5. The requirements noted above must be completed within 18 months of the date that the building permit is issued. The chief building official may grant an 18- month extension upon finding that significant progress has been made in the completion of the requirements or there have been other circumstances, beyond the control of the property owner, that have delayed completion. If you are planning on building a new home and want to use the mobile home temporarily, the requirements from the Larimer County Land Use Code are as follows: SECTION 18.2(D)3 Manufactured homes may be used to provide temporary housing for up to 18 months during construction of a principal building. The building permit to place the manufactured home must be issued at the same time as the building permit for the principal building. BUILDING PERMIT REQUIREMENTS & FEES Permits: Below are general code and permit requirements. 1) If a used modular home or single/double-wide mobile home is to be used for a dwelling: * All applicable move permits need to be obtained (Assessor, CDOT, etc.); * An installation authorization form from the State of Colorado certifying that the modular home was installed pursuant to State regulations is required; * If the structure is an older SWMH, the structure will need to comply with Land Use Code requirements as previously noted herein; * The structure must be on a permanent foundation. Engineered foundation plans may be required. 2) If used as a Farmstead, the structure needs to be on a permanent foundation. If used as an extended family dwelling, the structure does not need to be on a permanent foundation. For use as a Farmstead or Extended Family Dwelling, you must first complete and receive approval by the Planning Department prior to building permit application; 3) Two sets of plans, including foundation plans, and four plot plans, drawn to scale, are required with building permit application for any type of approved use; I . 4) Owner may be subject to water and sewer tap fees; 5) If not hooked up to public sewer, owner will need to obtain a septic permit from the Larimer County Health Department 970-498-6775; 6) Owner will need to obtain an electrical permit from the State of Colorado Electrical Board; 7) A separate address will be assigned to the new dwelling; 8) Owner cannot use or occupy the dwelling until the Building Department issues a CO under a valid building permit. Fees: Building permit fees vary based upon the type of application. As a general estimate, for the use as a Single Family Dwelling or Farmstead, the permit fees and impact fees would probably cost in excess of $2,000.00. For an estimate on permit fees associated with your proposed use, please call the Building Department at 970-498-7700. The items mentioned above are to aid in your transition process and ensure that all County requirements are complied with.

Box 1707 251 Moraine Avenue Estes Park, CO 80517 Mr. Padden, My name is Will Birchfield; I am the Chief Building Official for the Town of Estes Park. I received you phone message questioning Town permitting and licensing requirements to demolish buildings. Following is my response to your request for information. The Estes Park Municipal Code, Chapter 14.12, adopts by reference the 1997 Uniform Building Code (1997 UBC). The 1997 UBC, Section 101.3 regulates the demolition of buildings and structures. Permits are required to demo buildings and structures within Town boundaries. There is a fee of $50.00 assessed per demo permit. There are various reasons for requiring demo permits in addition to the UBC requirements. Permits provide accurate historic records of properties and structures. The County Assessor's Office accesses Town records to determine if and when buildings and structures are added to and/or removed from the tax roll, and to monitor improvements and additions to properties. Numerous other entities also rely on Town records as their first and/or primary source of information relative to buildings. Regarding Town licensing requirements, the Estes Park Municipal Code, Chapter 5.20 requires building contractors working within Town boundaries to obtain a yearly business license from the Town Clerk's Office. Section 5.20.020 specifically includes demolition contractors and house moving contractors. Section 5.20.030 establishes building contractor license fees at $200 per year. Chapter 14.28 of the Estes Park Municipal Code regulates the moving of buildings within Town boundaries. Permits are required; and, Section 14.28.020 establishes a $50 fee per permit. The Municipal Code has additional specific requirements of compliance prior to the issuance of a building moving permit. , The Town of Estes Park Department of Building Safety is directly involved in the issuance of building demo permits and building moving permits and their associated inspections. The department is also involved with monitoring and enforcement of building contractor licensing. Town staff is aware of the circumstances relative to the home owners in the Fall River Village mobile home park. We are working to provide quality customer service to assist the home owners in complying with Municipal Code requirements. To that end, staff is currently active on at least two fronts. First, staff is preparing a handout package to provide accurate and useful information in the timeliest manner possible. Second, staff discussed this matter with the Community Development Committee at their February 5th meeting. As a result of that discussion, staff is researching and preparing a recommendation to take back to the Community Development Committee, requesting a review of the circumstances regarding the home owners at the mobile home park, and to provide staff with direction as to the intent and application of specific Municipal Code requirements and to determine if any exceptions and/or relief are warranted, and if so to what extent. The research process is currently ongoing and the recommendation stage is not yet achieved; therefore, I am not able to elaborate further.
