This is particularly the case when describing the use of "non-traditional" (on-line or interactive) media. For example, according to Ad Age, Johnson & Johnson, the huge consumer products corporation, will spend 20% of its 2007 marketing budget on non-traditional media. MMG Worldwide, the state's marketing agency, expects to dedicate 30% of the State funds to non-traditional media this year. The Estes Park marketing committee plans to spend over 18% of its media budget with on-line programs this year: On-Line Program Percentages for 360 Matrix Percent of Media Program Spent Budgeted Budget Comment 2006 2007 2006 2007 Media Budget 567,934 598,020 2006 actual, 2007 budgeted DNA 10,000 12,000 1.76% 2.01% Denver Newspaper Agency Webs Channels 4&9 0 17,690 0.00% 2.96% Web sites Google 39,973 41,000 7.04% 6.86% Keyword campaign Website 12,034 21,000 2.12% 3.51% updates, SEO, Hosting, etc. e-Newsletter 0 3,839 0.00% 0.64% double opt-in via website 1 CO.Com 1,740 9,787 0.31% 1.64% colorado.com Misc 2,584 5,000 0.45% 0.84% production, etc. Totals $66,341 $110,316 11.68% 18.45% % of total media budget DNA, Channels 4&9 are banner ads and tile ads promoting our major events (regional promotion) Colorado.com is banner ads and tiles promoting requesting a guide etc. (out-of-state promotion) BACKGROUND: N/A BUDGET: N/A ACTION: N/A â€¢ Page 2 Estes Park Convention & Visitors Bureau Memo To: Community Development Committee From: Julie Nikolai, Group Sales CC: Tom Pickering, Randy Repola Date: April 4,2007 Re: Group Sales Report Estes Park Conference Center Update Redecoration and refurbishing of the Estes Park Conference Center is underway and the majority of the work is completed. Carpet has been layed and the new colors bring a wonderful level of warmth and sophistication to the facility. Interior drywall repairs have been made, with two exterior repair projects remaining to be fixed at a later date in 2007. Painting has been completed, based on the available budget. The furniture manufacturer and styles have been chosen and will be in place before the summer season begins. CVB Group Sales Quarterly Report The Group Sales Dept. has attended two bridal shows in the first quarter. The first was in January in Loveland, which was very well attended. The second in Westminster was a much smaller show, but offered some interest in Estes Park for their destination wedding. CVB membership was invited to join the efforts and several businesses volunteered to assist and work a shift in our booth, as well as offered donated services for our raffle drawing. Leads were generated and dispersed to members. The first quarter of 2007 showed an increase (+37) in the number of referrals through the group sales office, but a slight decrease (-13) in the number of leads distributed to our CVB membership. In addition, the total number of leads from the two wedding shows was down significantly. We adjusted our show schedule this year and adopted a new approach in how leads were qualified, which was a positive sales change. Our show schedule will adjust again in 2008 to find a different regional show to replace the Westminster show. With two years of data now, we hope to begin discovering patterns for the times of year when particular segments within the group industry are most active. The attached report shows activity for the first quarter of 2007. In the individual market segments, reunion leads and referrals show a slight decrease for the first quarter as compared to 2006. Weddings leads and referrals are down as well while meetings show a slight elevation in leads when compared with 2006. The most substantial change is in the tour market with a significant percentage of increase. In this area, the CVB is gaining presence through our website, as well as through our membership in Tour Colorado and recent Fam Tours that we participated in. 1 . D , I 3 a C C Â©U M 5 h.

The increased value of press coverage also is reflected in gains in number of placements and total inches of coverage received. Statistical reports are on page 2 of this report. Internet Monitoring: During the first month of monitoring internet coverage, 26 web news placements resulted from CVB media efforts. Coverage transferring from print to electronic coverage (or found only on the web) included event, music, Lyceum and exhibit listings. Two internet travel "magazines" (Go World Travel and Gayot Publications) featured Estes Park in travel articles. The Go World Travel stories are a direct result of a familiarization tour of the area completed in 2004. e-Newsletter: On March 28, 21,095 individuals were provided the opportunity to subscribe to an e- newsletter about events, activities and opportunities for fun in Estes Park by using e-mail addresses collected from EstesParkCVB.com since the site went live on Sept. 30, 2004. Within the first four days following the initial email 12.8% (2,701) had confirmed their desire to receive the information. Independent of that effort, 74 individuals requested the e-Newsletter directly from the CVB Web site. The first e-Newsletter will be e-mailed on Tuesday, April 3. 1 1.

The missing and damaged areas ofthe acoustical ceiling in the basement should be replaced and repaired. b.) There is a need for storage/shelving in this area to reduce the likelihood of a trip and fall injury. The action areas will be addressed in two phases. Phase I is addressed in this memo. During Phase II, free standing shelving will be purchased and assembled on site. In preparation for the shelving, staff has cleaned and emptied the basement, temporarily storing some items in a trailer. Phase I Recommendations: Chief Building Official Wil Birchfield has recommended removing the existing ceiling and installing a one-hour fire rated grid, acoustical panels, and ceiling radiation dampers. Upon further review by Building Official Birchfield, Project Manager Mike Mangelsen and Senior Center Director Lori Mitchell, the need to repair some electrical wiring and replace old light fixtures became apparent; thus this was added to the project. Phase I Bids: Ceiling Mechanical Electrical 3 vendors invited to bid (1 declined) 2 vendors invited to bid 2 vendors invited to bid Ace Acoustics Tolin Mechanical Systems High Plains Electric $3450 $1625 $2172 Acoustics and Interiors Pro Tech Plumbing and Heating Estes Park Electric $3800 $2395 $2800 BUDGET/COST: Account number: 217-5304-453-25-02 Total project budget: $12,000 Phase I Cost: $7247 This item is not asterisked. Phase II (Shelving) Budget: $2953 Contingency: $1800 h RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends acceptance of the low bids from Ace Acoustics for $3450 (ceiling portion), from Tolin Mechanical Systems for $1625 (mechanical portion), and from High Plains Electric for $2172 (electrical portion), totaling $7247.

My problem was back surgery and I couldn't stand and cook. I could walk to the refrigerator to pull out milk. I didn't need dessert. I would have been happier with a more substantial entrde and sides. I don't see how a man could possibly be satisfied with the offered portions. 00000000000 0000000000000000000000000 TOWN OF ESTES PARK Office Memorandum To: Community Development Committee -Trustees Pinkham, Levine and Eisenlauer From: Betty Kilsdonk Date: April 5,2007 Re: Estes Park Museum Monthly Report New Exhibit The Estes Park Volunteer Fire Department: The First Hundred Years is a new exhibit opening onFriday, AprU 27 with a free reception from 5 PM to 7 PM sponsored by the Estes Park Museum Friends & Foundation and the Town of Estes Park.

This regulation was amended in 2004 to provide clarification and tighter rules. However, our current regulation still allows both Vacation Homes and BnBs as a full-time principal business use on the property. Recent debate of this policy indicates discontent in some neighborhoods regarding this business use, with calls for tighter restrictions and better enforcement. At the study session Trustee Blackhurst Proposed that "Vacation home rental property in residentiaf Ill Soning districts is sblely for the purpose of overnight accommodations for periods of less than| hO days for one rental agreement. No other commercial and/or_home_occupations_uses_ard 5, loermitted. There.shall be no on-sight management-or. employee, Recommendation: The attached code revisions are consistent with the Blackhurst proposal. This revision allows both vacation homes (and optionally, Bed-and-Breakfasts) to operate in all residential districts as a principal full-time use, but prohibits any related or unrelated services or home occupations. An option to allow non-concurrent home occupations is also presented. A separate BnB regulatory option is presented at the end of the draft. Under this option BnBs are treated as a sub-set of Vacation Homes and as such would be subject to all of the limitations that apply to Vacation Homes except the specific noted exceptions (see Optional BnB Provisions). Under this option BnBs would be strictly limited to resident owner operations, and they could serve multiple parties but are limited to a maximum occupancy of six or seven guests at a time (assuming one or two resident owners). These code revisions also provide head count clarifications consistent with a more restrictive interpretation of the existing code limit of eight persons.
