The original Bill was designed to allow communities/surrounding areas to produce revenue from a wider ' area than city limits. This Bill was successful; however, it was discovered that since statutory towns are limited to a cap of 7% sales tax, a revision would be required to remove the cap (Senate Bill #99-30). Senator Matsunaka and Representative Kaufman are sponsoring the Bill and CML has offered its support. The Bill allows the creation of an independent marketing district with a separate board. An election must be conducted to establish the tax, and money raised will be administered by the newly-established board. The revenue source is from the rental of rooms. Additional information will be provided as available. Following completion of all Agenda items, Mayor Dekker adjourned the meeting at 8:03 p.m. Robert L.

Other items discussed at the December meeting include approval of the 1999 Budget and resolutions to supply wind energy to Aspen, Tri State, and the City of Ft. Collins which will require four additional generators. Ft. Collins has already sold their allotment of wind energy. Other PRPA cities have also expressed an interest in providing this type of energy to their customers. The current surcharge for wind energy in Ft. Collins is two cents per kW hour, which represents a 30% increase on electric bills. Financial Report: The November income statement was reviewed.

Director Matzke reported two brief outages are necessary to energize the new underground lines at Park Lane. The underground lines will be in service prior to removing the overhead lines. Replacement of the cable at Windcliff is complete. A scheduled outage was planned in November or December 1998 to switch from the existing cable to the new. However, prior to the scheduled outage the old cable failed which required switching to the new cable earlier than anticipated. Director Matzke explained that had the new line not been in place, the outage would have been lengthy.

Bob Felsburg, of Felsburg, Holt and Ullevig Inc., is under contract with Larimer County, Weld County, and Fort Morgan County (Upper Front Range Region) to prepare this plan. All municipalities in this region were requested to submit projects for CDOT funding by January 22'd. After considerable discussion and input from staff and the public at the Transportation Forurn in April, the Town will submit the following projects. The final report will prioritize all submitted projects from the affected agencies. 1. Highway 36 improvements west of downtown from Crags Drive to Marys Lake Road: • The addition of two 6' shoulders • Construction of an 8' detached sidewalk the entire length • Improvements to the Crags Drive intersection and Marys Lake Road intersection • Center turn lane in the heavy commercial area BRADFORD PUBLISHING CO.

Valley-wide/Rocky Mountain National Park mass transit system feasibility study: • This study would research the possibility of various transit systems between the Estes Valley and RMNP, and within the Park. Director Linnane reported that the Upper Front Range Region Transportation group will hold an open forum on February 23, 1999 from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. in the Board Room of the Municipal Building. Immediately following the forum, the group will make a presentation to the Board of Trustees at the 7:00 p.m. Board meeting. Accountable Water Report Update. In January 1998, the Committee approved the scope of services for the Black & Veatch study. In April 1998, Black & Veatch recommended that the Town wait until the end of the year so that the 1998 meter change-out program data could be used in the report. Director Linnane reported that the accountable water has improved from a January 1997 12-month running total of 72% to a December 1998 12-month average of 84%, an increase of 12%. Several major leaks were discovered and repaired which contributed to this improvement. Director Linnane also reported that 84% is well within the industry standards. A final draft of the reported is anticipated at the February meeting. 1999 Proposed Water Line Replacement Projects/Water Line Replacement Projects Priority List Update. Director Linnane presented an updated priority list of the proposed 1999 water line and replacement projects. The following water line projects are scheduled for 1999: 1. Fall River 12" -Phase 4 2. Big Horn 12" - Phase 4 3. Chiquita 6" 4. Hwy. 7/Prospect Mountain water line Items 1 through 3 are maintenance problem lines with a Priority #1 rating. Item 4 is a master plan item with a Priority #2 rating. Director Linnane explained the reasons for completing Item 4 in 1999. This project would benefit the system as a whole by increasing water pressure to the area. If the Prospect Mountain pump house is converted to a pressure reducing valve and the 2" line replaced with an 8" main, water can then flow in both directions allowing for increased flow for fire protection. The estimated increase is 3,000 gallons per minute to 4,500 gallons per minute.

Box 1200 Estes Park, CO 80517 Dear Rich, This is a formal request to the Town ofEstes Park to assist in the funding for the 7 replication of The Estes Park Valley Housing Needs Assessment originally conducted in 1990. I have spoken with Chris Cares ofRosall Remmen and Cares, Inc. who conducted the last study and he indicated that to replicate this study would cost between $13,000 and $15,000. The original cost in 1990 was approximately $11,000. The Forward Estes Park Foundation is contributing $1,500 to this effort; EPURA has pledged $3,000 in support, and Park School District indicates they will contribute $2,000. It is my desire to raise the additional $8,500 by the middle to end ofFebruary. The Estes Valley Medical Center, local lending institutions and Rocky Mountain National Park will be contacted to determine if there is interest in contributing to this study. A presentation was made on this date to the Chamber Resort Association. Any support that the Town ofEstes Park can contribute will be most welcome. Ifthe funds can be raised by the end ofFebruary then the study can probably be conducted this summer. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or need additional information.
