Estes Park Housing Authority (EPHA) Board Meeting Date: April 11,2001 Members Present: Eric Blackhurst, Sue Doylen, Lee Kundtz, Louise Olson, & Karla Porter Members Absent: Staff Present: Sam Betters, Carolyn Coffelt, & Jean Michaelson Others Present: Guests: Mary Bauer, Norm Carver, Jay Gentile, Alma Hix, Frank Hix, Rita Kurelja, Sarah Rhodes, & Joe Wise The April 11th meeting ofthe Estes Park Housing Authority was called to order by Sue Doylen, Chairperson, at 8:37 a.m. in the Board Room ofthe Municipal Building of the Town of Estes Park. APPROVAL OF MINUTES Sue Doylen asked if anyone had any changes, comments, or questions to the February 14th minutes. Louise Olson moved to approve the minutes as submitted, and Eric Blackhurst seconded. Minutes approved. CLEAVE STREET Sam Betters presented financial information on Cleave Street. EPHA had $442,000 for Cleave Street from various funding sources in which uses will be very tight. Several numbers escalated from original projections. We had to redo the plumbing for the entire building to bring it up to code. All galvanized piping was replaced with cooper. Also electrical went over as well. Loveland Housing Authority Maintenance Department did the painting and other miscellaneous repairs, as local bids were too high. Jean Michaelson also presented a specifically detailed bank budget for Cleave Street. Pretty much, all things that will be taken care of now are the health and safety issues. As you look at the financial performa for Cleave Street, net cash flow from operations does not become positive until June. Even then, we are operating very slim with no room for error. It is Jean Michaelson's goal to have the units leased up by mid-May. She will be working with Ponderosa Realty & Management, the property manager, to accomplish this. SELECTION AND SCREENING CRITERIA Jean Michaelson presented guidelines for selection and screening for all potential applicants of EPHA owned and/or managed properties. The selection criteria pretty much follows the guidelines for section 8 i.e. currently working and/or living in Park 3 School District 10 points; or households whose head and spouse or sole member is age 62 or older, or is a person with disabilities 10 points. In an effort to keep the leasing as simple as possible, there are no points for those involved in a self-sufficiency program. Income eligibility requirements for the units are set forth by the funding sources for this property. They are as follows: 1 unit at 30% AMI; 6 units at 50% AMI, and 3 units at 60% AMI. Someone earning 45% AMI can pay the difference. Screening guidelines include Financial Obligations i.e. rental payment history and credit history; Capacity to Comply i.e. of legal age, no violations of prior lease agreements, no convictions in any state or federal court for felonies or misdemeanors against person and/or property for murder, rape, burglary, or child abuse, no controlled illegal substances, or illegal weapons (see Applicant Screening Guidelines for specifics on all these guidelines). The screening guidelines also include a section on Willingness to Care for the Apartment. Each specific section was discussed and changes suggested. Jean Michaelson will make the changes accordingly. Loveland Housing Authority can get the credit and criminal history on a tenant from Factual Data for $17.50. It was decided to charge the tenant $10 to offset the charges. Greg White, the EPHA lawyer, is currently reviewing the lease as well. EPHA April Board Minutes - Page 1 of 2

....FORD PUBLISHING CO. RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS Regular Meeting of the Estes Valley Planning Commission May 15, 2001, 1:30 p.m. Board Room (Room 130), Estes Park Municipal Building Commission: Chair Joyce Kitchen, Commissioners Wendell Amos, DeeDee Hampton, Ed McKinney, Cherie Pettyjohn, Edward Pohl, and Dominick Taddonio Attending: Chair Kitchen, Commissioners Hampton, McKinney, Pettyjohn, Pohl, and Taddonio Also Attending: Town Attorney White, Acting Director Joseph, Planner Shirk, and Recording Secretary Wheatley Absent: Commissioner Amos Chair Kitchen called the meeting to order at 1:32 p.m. 1. CONSENT AGENDA a. Estes Valley Planning Commission Minutes dated April 17: 2001. b. Development Plan, Minor Subdivision and Rezoning, Olympus Lodge Properties, 2365 Big Thompson Avenue - was removed from the Consent Agenda to be considered as an action item. c. Development Plan, RiverRock Townhomes, Phase XI - continued to the June 19, 2001 meeting at applicant's request. It was moved and seconded (Pohl/Pettyjohn) that the Consent Agenda be accepted with the removal of item b. Olympus Lodge Properties Development Plan and it passed unaniously. 2. PUBLIC COMMENT Al Sager spoke regarding RiverRock Townhomes. During the initial review of this development, highway noise was a critical issue, especially for those buildings next to the highway. Some areas have mitigated highway noise by the construction of walls, which he hopes would not happen in this case. 3. DEVELOPMENT PLAN, MINOR SUBDIVISION AND REZONING OLYMPUS LODGE PROPERTIES. It was moved and seconded (McKinney/Taddonio) that the Development Plan, Minor Subdivision and Rezoning of Olympus Lodge~Properties be withdrawn and it passed unanimously with one absent. Chair Kitchen recognized Bob Joseph as the new Community Development Director. 4. REZONING a. Kiowa Ridge Subdivision, Highway 7 and Mary's Lake Road, Owners: Bob Koehler et al. This development was approved shortly after the new Code was effective and the Planning Commission approved it based on a 1 acre zoning (which under the old Code was E) and should have been designated E-1. Director Joseph confirmed this request was a corrective measure. The lots were designed for the "E-1" one-acre zoning designation. Public Comment: None.
DRADFOROPUBLISHING CO. RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS Estes Valley Planning Commission - May 15, 2001 Page 2 It was moved and seconded (MoKinney/Taddonio) to recommend approval to the Town Board of Trustees for the rezoning of Kiowa Ridge Subdivision from E to E-1 Residential Zoning, and it passed unanimously with one absent. b. Rezoning of KOA Property, Dry Gulch Addition #1, Applicants: Jay & Carol Coates. Director Joseph revidwed the request. This is a request to rezone the KOA property (300 Big Thompson Avenue) from the current zoning classification of "CO" Commercial Outlying to "A" Accommodations. The existing use of the KOA property does not confohn to uses allowed in the CO district, but does conform to the "A" Accommodations district. If there is some retailing being performed, it would be an accessory use, and the zoning should reflect the primary use of accommodations. The Town Board will hear this request on May 22 along with an annexation plat. The annexation plat also includes the Sombrero Stables property to the west, though that property zoning will remain "CO" Commercial Outlying. Public Comment: None. It was moved and seconded (Pohl/Taddonio) to recommend approval to the Town Board of Trustees to rezone the KOA property to "A" Accommodations in concuirence-with the annexation. If the annexation is not approved, Planning Commission recommends approval of the rezoning to the Board of County Commissioners. Motion passed unanimously with one absent. 5. SUBDIVISIONS a. Preliminary Plat, Horse Creek Ranch, Applicants: Steve & Betty Nichol. Dave Shirk reviewed the staff report with the aid of aerial photography of the site. This is a request to subdivide a 42-acre tract into three buildable lots, and one non-buildable outlot. The applicant could propose a much higher density subdivision, which would be allowed under the current"RE" Rural Estate zoning designation of 2.5 acre lots. However, the applicants have opted for a low-density rural subdivision, preserving a maximum amount of trees and open space. This property is to be served by Little Valley Road, with St. ~ Francis Way extending to the west dividing the proposed Lot 1. The road system serving Little Valley is in Little Valley General Improvement District #14 of Larimer county, which was established in 1993. - The location of the driveway on Lot 2 may need to be lengthened and the limits of disturbance changed slightly due to the steepness of the slope. This proposal is within an identified wildlife migration area; therefore, the applicant has submitted a plan addressing the review standards set forth in Section 7.8 G. "Wildlife Habitat Protection" of the EVDC. Staff suggests this Wildlife Habitat Protection Plan and Horse Management Plan be recorded as covenants against the lots. Wetlands have been identified on proposed Lots 2 and 3. Staff recommends the identified wetlands be placed in outlots. The prbposed subdivision is located within an identified wildfire hazard area. Tony Simons, Larimer County Wildfire Safety coordinator has reviewed the proposal, and his comments were incorporated into the location of the building envelopes. The applicant has requested that the requirement for a mitigation plan be delayed until the siting of building structures has been decided. Staff supports this request with the note that wildfire mitigation is required prior to issuance of a building permit. The EVDC states that public central sewer service is the preferred method of sewage collection and treatment to the maximum extent feasible; however, the applicant has done an economic analysis of connecting the site to central sewer as opposed to installing septic systems. The results estimate a cost of $120,000 as compared to $40,000 respectively. Doug Ryan, Larimer County Environmental Health Planner, has reviewed the proposal and expressed concerns regarding the proposed septic system location for Lot 1. This issue will be addressed at the building permit stage, and Mr. Ryan will sign the plat before recording. The applicant proposes to serve Lots 1 and 3 with Town water, with Lot 2 to be on a well due to the elevation of Lot 2 being above the service line of the Town. Lot 2 will require an approved augmentation plan and
BRADFORIPUBLISHING.0 RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS Estes Valley Planning Commission - May 15, 2001 Page 3 confirmation that well permits have been issued by the Colorado Division of Water Resources. A utility plan detailing the extension of the water line must be approved by Town of Estes Park Public Works prior to final approval of the subdivision. The site will not be able to meet minimum fire flow standards as required by the latest ISO Fire Suppression Rating Schedule from the proposed Town water supply. The applicant is choosing an option suggested by Fire Chief Scott Dorman to install 3000-gallon water storage tanks at each property. Any improvements required by the EVDC must be installed or guaranteed by the subdivider prior to approval of the final plat. The Improvement Guarantee should include water line, fire protection systems, and culverts. Bill Van Horn was present representing the applicants, Steve and Betty Nichol, who were also present. Mr. Van Horn reviewed the proposal. The applicants have chosen a very low density development as opposed to maximizing the number of possible lots. The applicant has no problem with staff recommendations. Conservation easements are being planned in order to compensate for the higher cost of lower density. Wetlands will be shown as nonplatted areas and left as natural areas. The area north of the St. Francis Way ROW will be included in this unplatted area. Public Comment: None. It was moved and seconded (McKinney/Taddonio) to recommend approval to the Board of County Commissioners of the Preliminary Plat of Horse Creek Ranch Subdivision, with the following conditions and it passed unanimously with one absent. 1. Removal of the note referencing zoning. 2. Dedication of a utility easement for the existing power line along the west property line. 3. Placement of the following note on the plat: "The site is located within an identified wildfire hazard. Wildfire mitigation in cooperation with the Larimer county Wildfire Coordinator is required prior to issuance of a building permit." 4. Evidence of petition for inclusion within the Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District. 5. Confirmation that a well permit has been issued by the Colorado Division of Water Resources for Lot 2. 6. A utility plan detailing the extension of the water line, as approved by Town of Estes Park Public Works. 7. Submittal of a driveway profile for Lot 2 identifying a grade of 12% or less. 8. Identification and preservation of wetlands and open areas. 9. With the submittal of the Final Plat, a Subdivision Improvement Guarantee including the following shall be submitted: water line (as per Public Works approval), fire protection (as per Fire Chief recommendation), and culvert Installation (as per Larimer County standards). 6. CONDOMINIUM MAP a. Preliminary Condominium Map, Riverstone Condominiums 11, Lot 2A of the Amended Plat of Lots 1 and 2, Block 3, Fall River Estates, Applicants: Doug and Linda Cook. Director Joseph reviewed the staff report. This is a request for a condominium map for the Riverstone Development Plan (99-06), which was approved by the Estes Park Planning Commission in May, 1999. That development plan provided for four (4) residential and nine (9) accommodation units. A condition of the development plan approval was that the accommodation units "shall not be individually transferred". This condominium map would then be in conflict with this condition of the development plan. Therefore, the submitted condominium map does not conform to the development plan, and a revised development plan is required before the condominium map may be approved. Staff is recommending continuation to allow applicant to consider this condition and the possibility of revising the development plan. Town Attorney White's memo dated April 23, 2001, was reviewed with regard to the definition of

CONSENT AGENDA The minutes of the May 1, 2001, meeting were accepted as presented. 2. LOT 6, ROCKWOOD ESTATES 2ND FILING, 1027 ROCKWOOD LANE. APPLICANTS: RICHARD & MURIEL PETERSON - SETBACK VARIANCE REQUEST FROM SECTION 4.3, TABLE 4-2 OF THE ESTES VALLEY DEVELOPMENT CODE Planner Shirk reviewed the staff report. The applicant is requesting a side yard setback variance to allow for the construction of a detached single-family dwelling. It appears special circumstances of steep slope are present on this lot. The applicant could build a house that met the required setbacks; however, this would locate the structure on steeply sloping grades which would require additional rock cut and have · a larger impact on the character of the neighborhood. Due to site conditions, Staff does not consider this request substantial. The essential character of the neighborhood would change less with the variance than without. The applicant purchased the property in 1986: The "RE" zone and associated setbacks were implemented in 2000. Prior to that, the property was zoned "IE" by the County, which still had a side yard setback of 50 feet. No significant issues or concerns were expressed by reviewing staff relative to code compliance or the provision of public services. Planner Shirk read the staff findings into the record. Board member Sager requested that certain information, such as the location of manhole covers and light poles be shown on the site plan. Also a sign on site indicating the address and owner would help the Board in locating the site for inspections. Roger Thorp of Thorn Associates was present on behalf of the applicant to answer questions. Public Comment: None. Based on staff findings, it was moved and seconded (Sag@r/Newsom) to approve the variance request to allow a 38 foot side yard setback in lieu of 50 feet as required in the "RE" Estate zoning district with the following conditions and it passed unanimously. All variances granted by the Board of Adjustment shall become null and void if a Building Permit has not been

The applicarit wishes to deviate from the mandated 25-foot side yard setback to allow side setbacks of 10 feet and a height of 36 feet in lieu of the 30 foot maximum imposed by the EVDC. The applicant desires to construct a new single-family dwelling unit with attached two- car garage. The Ubper Thompson Sanitation District has reservations concerningthe requested north side-yard variance request. Specifically, the District has a collection line located within the north 10-foot easement. The easement must be maintained free of obstructions for the District to operate and maintain its collection line. The lot is characterized by 25-30% slopes, is undersized for the E-1 Estate one-acre district being only .43 acre. Staff agrees with the applicant that special circumstances apply to this lot: There is permanent open space below this site. The proposal is in keeping with the character of the neighbdrhood. The owner purchased the lot in November 1999 and associated height and building setbacka were implemented in February 2000. Setbacks have- not changed; however, the County's height limitation was 40 feet. Planner Shirk read staff findings into the record. Roger Thorp of Thorp Associates was present representing the applicant. Corhpliance with the requirement from Upper Thompson can be accommodated. The neighbors ·from the north and south have both given approvals to the variance. Public Commerit: None. Based on lot size and steepness of the lot, it was moved and seconded (Newsom/Ball) to approve the variance request to allow a side yard setback of 10 feet instead of the 25-foot setback and a height variance of 36 feet as opposed to 30 feet as required in the E-1 zoning district with the'follbwing conditions and it passed unanimously. All variances granted by the Board of Adjustment shall become null and void if a Building Permit has not been issued and paid for, and the work commenced within twelve (12) months from the date the variance is granted. 1. Prior to pouring foundation, submittal of a setback certificate prepared by a certified·surveyor.

LOT 12, CENTENNIAL HILLS SUBDIVISION. 179 CENTENNIAL DRIVE, APPLICANTS: JEFF & SUSAN HANCOCK - SETBACK VARIANCE REQUEST FROM SECTION 4.3, TABLE 4-2 OF THE ESTES VALLEY DEVELOPMENT CODE Planner Shirk reviewed the Staff report. The applicant wishes to deviate from the mandated 50-foot front yard setback to allow a setback of 18-feet to allow for the construction of a detached two-car garage. A previous discussion also included a plan for living quarters above. Staff advised applicant that accessory dwelling units were not allowed. The Larimer County Building Department has noted that no inspections were conducted under Permit 939-E545 for the installation of a 500-gallon propane tank. There do not appear to be any special circumstances associated with this lot. The applicant built the principal dwelling unit in 1993 with an attached garage; therefore, the property may continue to be used for residential use. The construction of the proposed structure within 18 feet of the right-of-way would be out of character for the neighborhood. The zoned setback at the time of construction was 75 feet from the road centerline or 30-feet from the property line, whichever was greater. The 50-foot standard was implemented with the adoption of the Estes Valley Development Code in February 2000. The garage could be sited almost anywhere else on the lot and conform. Due to the majority of the structure being within the zoned setback, it is Staff's opinion the request is for the maximum deviation. The applicant, Jeff Hancock, spoke regarding his proposal and their desire to keep the open space in the meadow area. By building in this open meadow area, views from neighboring lots would be more affected. He noted that there is no 500-gallon propane tank on the property and that they have been on natural gas for several years. Bruce Gregg of Gregg Construction spoke regarding the rooflines which would be consistent with the house. The current design of the garage has been redesigned to exclude the living quarters. Susan Hancock answered questions from the Board regarding reasoning for having this garage detached. Bruce Gregg advised that the existing garage space that is currently attached to the house would be reduced with a remodel of the main residence. It was moved (Sager) to table this item to allow for further information from the applicant. Motion died for lack of a second. Mel Wilson was present and answered questions from the Board. He is on an architectural committee from the area. With respect to the covenants for Centennial Hills, this request seems too extreme. There are covenants for Centennial Hills that are recorded; however, there is no homeownefs association at this time. The covenants have setbacks of 75 feet from the centerline of the road.

The Bank of Colorado offered lower fees than the other respondents, so a decrease in banking costs should be realized.

. Administration Department Memo To: Honorable Mayor Baudek Board of Trustees From: Rich Widme. Town Administ~br Date: June 6, 2061<- Subject: Organization Chart Background. Section 2.68.040 of the Estes Park Municipal Code requires the Town Administrator to "... propose an administrative organization plan of the Town which shall be presented to the Board of Trustees for approval." Attached is the Organization Chart dated June 2001. Several routine housekeeping changes have been made, including adding the Estes Park Housing Authority. The main change proposed is to revise the duties of the Assistant Town Administrator to include direct supervision of the Museum/Senior Center, Advertising, Community Development, Special Events, and Conference Center Departments. The change is proposed in order to reduce the number of people reporting directly to the Town Administrator and to increase the experience and knowledge of the Assistant Town Administrator in more areas of Town operations. Those departments directly affected will still be able to communicate with the Town Administrator as necessary and appropriate. Budget. There are no budget implications for this action. Action I respectfully request your approval of the June 2001 Organization Chart for the Town of Estes Park.

STATE OF COLORADO EXECUTIVE CHAMBERS '136 State Capitol Denvef. Colorado 80203-1792 pla e W., Phone: (303) 866·2471 . mil Owens · _ Governor June 5,2001 The Honorable Colorado House of Representatives Sixty-Third General Assembly First Regular Session Denver, CO 80203 Ladies and Gentlemen: I am returning zo the Secretary of State House Bill 01-1386, "Marketing and promotion tax." I vetoed this bill as of 41: 43,},4oday. and this letter sets forth my reasons for doing so. House Bi1101-1386 provides an exemption for a voter-approved marketing and promotion tax levied by local marketing districts from the limitation of the 6.9 percent limit on the total sales and use taxes imposed under current law. The sales tax is a regressive tax. By increasing the sales tux rate. lower income groups are disproportionately affected. I have consistently advocated broad-based tax relief in the State of Colorado. In the 2000 legislative session, the General Assembly passed and I signed into law a . reduction in the state sales and use tax rate. This tax reducti6n decreased the maximum tax rate from 7.0 percent to 6.9 percent. However, House Bill 01-1386 allows the sales tax rate to be increased and thereby may nullify the progress we made in permanently lowering the sales tax during the 2000 legislative session. Combined sales and use tax collections in Colorado rank 9th in lhe nation. Any further increases in the sales and use tax would not be desirable. An additional exemption to the sales tax rate structure only further complicates an already complex system o f sales taxation in the state. Accordingly, I have vetoed this bill. ,/"-3'¥lcerel v, - Bill Owens 20 'd SL !8098£08 'ON XVd 1W0 GE :60 AH1 10-1.0-NAr
