Annual Report 2007 Wildland Urban Interface Fire Education Coordinator Annual report 2007 Summary This was the first year that I've been employed by the Town of Estes Park with Chief Dorman as my supervisor. Previously, I've been employed by Colorado State Forest Service and housed at the Dannels fire station. In 2007 there were no major fires in the area but many people were very concerned because they could see the haze - smoke from the California fires. This concern led to an opportunity to visit properties and offer suggestions on creating and/or maintaining defensible spaces. Apparently, State Farm Insurance Company is sending representatives to policyholders' properties to survey and make recommendations for defensible spaces too. The season started very well. The Duck Race is always a good time to get people thinking about wildfire prevention, even if it is snowing. The pine bark beetle was a great segue for me at the "Tree Symposium" and brought more people to the "Wildfire Fair" which was held the following day. Participation in the Farmers' Markets and being interviewed every other week on KEPL were helpful in getting the defensible space message as well as ways ofpreventing fires out to the general public. My booth was a familiar sight again this year at the Farmers' Markets, the Arts and Crafts Fair, and the Elk Pest. Next year, I hope to add the Heritage Festival. After refresher PIO training by the US Forest Service led to a request by them for PIO contacts in Estes Park, I suggested to the Town PIO that we should have an emergency PIO procedure so that all the PIOs involved in any emergency (fire and police) could have back-ups, a coordinated procedure and location to carry out those procedures. Jacquie Halbumt, Wes Kufeld, Suzy Blackhurst and jeff Barker met with me throughout the summer to decide what physical needs we would have, where we could have an "information office" and most importantly to develop our procedures. We now have a dedicated computer file on the main server that is accessible to each o f us although Jeff Barker (volunteer fire fighter/PIO) has to access it from the fire station or one of the police cars. The slash collection was a huge success. All summer people were asking if we were going to have it again this year. Finally the grant funding came through and I could tell people that we would have it in October and November. This year, we decided to chip the slash we collected with the Christmas trees that arebeing dropped off. As of November 10th we had approximately 1280 cubic yards of slash to be chipped. Both RMNP and Larimer County Parks and Open Lands had prescribed burns scheduled for the same day and I had medical appointments so I could not help either one. I have conducted 2 fire ecology programs for Larimer County on their lands that were burned. I'm hoping next summer to be able to conduct some programs in the burned area for RMNP and also at Hermit Park as the County will be continuing to do some fuel reduction there.

The meeting was held primarily because county residents felt they did not get a chance to voice their opinions at a previous meeting. The majority of the input surrounded a fair and equitable solution for both town and county residents. Town officials have long said they could not continue to provide fire services to county residents without an additional funding source. Two proposed fire districts failed at elections in 2004 and 2006, at which time the town said it would have to implement a "charge for fire services" to county residents. A proposed fee would not be based on the number of fires in the Estes Valley Planning Area, but rather to offset the cost of the fire department's ability to be prepared to fight a fire if it would occur. This includes personnel, training, equipment, and in 2008 a total operating budget of $921,027. Fifty percent of the volunteer Fire Department's calls are outside of the town limits. Larimer County entered into an IGA with the Town to allow us to charge their residents for fire service. RECOMMENDATION: 1. The town board should appoint a panel to research a fire district that operates independently of the town and charges the same mil levy rate to everyone in the district. The county residents want a fair and equitable solution and this is the only way to reach their desired solution. It also takes the operation out of the town's budget, addressing a concern expressed by some county residents that they were unable to trust the town. I will also point out that we've only heard from the county residents regarding this issue. We have not asked the town residents their points-of-view. Don Widrig made a suggestion to form a committee charged with developing a plan upon which the Estes Valley residents would vote. He suggested a committee comprised of a senior member of the Town staff, a Town Trustee, the fire chief and five Estes Valley residents appointed by the board, three of which would be from the county. 2. In the interim, the board should charge county residents for fire service. We are providing a service to county residents without a funding source. While I think we all would want to provide this service for free, the reality is we can't without affecting levels of service in the fire and all town departments. The county has said it is not in the fire service business. The county fully supports a charge for the service and we've made the subscription fee optional. If a fire occurs and the subscription fee has not been paid, we will charge the homeowner or business owner based upon the Colorado State Forest Service's Cooperator Rate Agreement for apparatus. There will also be a charge for personnel based upon the personnel budget/number of response hours. If the board approves charging county residents for fire services, the current IGA would need to be amended to include the ability to charge either individual subscriptions or associations. Our long range objective should be to have a fire protection district. Our short term objective should be to generate revenue to offset expenses. I've included the 2006 list of fire districts in the county and the mil levies associated with them for your reference. t?Town*3*·i< :. .:91 t<e....41.11·f ' ..Mil Levy,1 1 4.
