Comparison of our policies with other cities has led us to the conclusion that our past practices are not out of line with what other Colorado and Platte River cities are doing. In our opinion, however, it would be wise for the town to establish a formula-based transfer. This would eliminate the uncertainty of year-to-year budgeting and allow the Light and Power Fund to Plan properly for the future. Several five-year financial plans utilizing different transfer formulas were prepared and analyzed. After review and discussion, our recommendations are as follows: 1. Raise the Franchise Fee from 2% to 3% of urban revenue for consistency with other franchised utilities in the town; 2. Adopt the following Transfer Formula: The General Fund Transfer shall equal 9.5% of Total Electric Sales. This formula is intended to be applicable for at least the next five years; however, we believe it is important to maintain some flexibility in its use. We recommend this be done by acknowledging the formula may be modified in the case of unusual or unforeseen financial conditions. A five-year cash flow analysis incorporating these recommendations is attached. The recommended formula will result in a 4.8% increase in the General Fund Transfer in 1993 and 3.3% in subsequent years. This is an improvement over the past yearly increases of 10%. It is obvious from the analysis that capital expenditures decrease significantly beginning in 1995. A change in revenues or expenses will have to occur in this time frame for the fund to maintain a $1 million year-end balance. It is Staff's intention to revise and update the five-year cash flow analysis on a yearly basis. The changes referenced above will produce an acceptable revenue source for the General Fund without injury to the Light and Power Fund, and will result in a stable planning environment for the utility. 1-1 O 4 ho NON.- N 000 N N e ~12&;32032 O (0 (Doom m 000 00 00 CO 9/ 0/ 01 9 00. q 0-0-0- p- M. 0- qrltoo.Q! g N 0 0, 8 2 W E h r h 0 00 0 N U W .7 2 W 5 u N r 0 COM h.:22 <O 00 9 01 Ul r m (O 01 q - e 00 <0 (D to MOONO.h 000 22=rgE 10014222 000 0-0-0- lo.*.24 N q mroON{9-Of< 0â€ž2 6& 2 5 4 4 M r- C) h(90 0 4 e {9 (0. r- O 00 - 0,00) r- 0 0 4 0 4 . 0 000 0 - 61 ble y MOM NOOU}Orne N 00 N r t.

Matzke 742 z SUBJECT: All Terrain Vehicle Authorization to Purchase The Light and Power Department included $6,000 in the 1992 budget for purchase of an all terrain vehicle. This vehicle would allow patrolling of lines which are now only accessible by foot. The proposed vehicle also has sufficient capacity to transport transformers and heavy equipment to remote areas. The availability of an all terrain vehicle would provide improved response time in locating and repairing outages in inaccessible areas as well as improving our capability to patrol lines as part of our preventative maintenance program. Attached is a memorandum from Fleet Manager, Gary Shanafelt summarizing the bids received. The Light and Power Department recommends purchase of the Polaris 4x6 All Terrain Vehicle from the low bidder, Turf & Trail Equipment Co. in Lakewood at a total cost of $5,044 including parts and service manuals.

It is the Town's interest and desire to return "Fall River Hydro" and accompanying buildings back to their fully operational condition that existed prior to the devastating 1982 Lawn Lake flood. OUOTATION DEADLINE . Proposal must be received no later than 5:00 p.m MDT on Tuesday, September 1, 1992 at the following address: Town of Estes Park Attention: Michael R. Mangelsen "Fall River Hydro Renovation" Light anc! Power Department P.O. Box 1200 Estes Park, CO 80517 i I 6b-3 E.,1 f.44?. I ... SCOI'E OF SERVICES The Town of Estes Park is requesting proposals for a turnkey project to restore the Fall River Hydroelectric Plant to service. The following options may be considered by the Town: 1. Developer will rehabilitate and restore the Fall River Hydro Plant to service and operate the plant under a lease arrangement with the Town. The Light and Power Department will purchase the electricity generated at a rate not to exceed its wholesale power cost from Platte River Power Authority. (Current Rate Schedule attached) t< 2. Developer will rehabilitate and restore the Fall River Hydro Plant to service, and the Town will operate the plant. Under both options, the Town of Estes Park will retain ownership of the plant. Please provide, as appropriate, projected restoration costs, financing options, operating costs, revenue stream, electrical output by month, and lease terms and conditions with your proposal. Also include with your proposal the level of assistance that would be expected from the Town. GENERAL INFORMATION Built originally around 1907 by F.O. Stanley to provide electricity to the Stanley Hotel, the Fall River Hydro Plant is now owned and operated by the Town of Estes Park. It was heavily damaged and practically destroyed in 1982 when a high mountain dam broke, inundating it with mud, silt, and other large debris. Since then, the plant has remained in limbo waiting either to be razed or revamped. For many years it operated beautifully, supplying power to the local primary distribution system. LOCATION The plant is situated on Fall River approximately three miles northwest of the Town of Estes ji Park. Another mile upstream and within the boundaries of Rocky Mountain National Park lies el the plant diversion works providing a head of 400 feet. Delivery is through a thirty-inch (30") penstock. There are also two relatively small operators' houses on location. Over time these have deteriorated and will need to be refurbished as a part of this project. r 2 . MACHINERY 1..' 1 The plant houses two early 1900's vintage hydro generators. Both are three phase, 2400 volt. Unit #1 is a 200 kW Western generator coupled to a "Hug" impulse wheel. Unit #2 is a 680 kW General Electric generator directly coupled to a Worthington turbine. Fall River Hydro Renovation 1 66-4 t The switch gear, which is assumed to be early 1900's vintage also, sustained heavy flood damage. It may very well warrant substantial upgrade and quite possibly complete replacement. PERMITS It will be the responsibility of the successful design/build firm to obtain any and/or all necessary permits. IIYDRAULICS In accordance with an agreement made in 1987 between the Town and the National Park Service, from April 1 through September 30 the Town must maintain a minimum stream flow of four (4) CFS and from October 1 through March 31 a minimum stream flow of one (1) CFS. The next l.5 CFS may be diverted for generation if available. Any amount of water over 2.5 CFS must remain in the river. To aid the contractor in determining and forecasting streain flows and net revenues, attached is a summary of "Monthly Flows on Fall River in Acre Feet" from the "Raw Water and Drought Study" conducted by Rocky Mountain Consultants completed in 1991.

Box 1200 Estes Park, Colorado 80517 Dear Mr. Alittzke: We arc writing in response to your telephone inquiry of mid-July, in which you requested a written statement from Platle River Power Authority regarding plans the Town of Estes Park is considering to refinbish its Fall River 1 lydro Plant. As we understand it, several alternatives for reftlibishing the plant are still under consideration, but the most likely possibility is that the plant would be refurbished by and then leased to a third party, but wotild continue to be owned by the Town, which wotild purchase its entire output. It is also our understanding thot the output of the refurbished plant would not exceed that of the original plant. Article 1 (a) of the AMENDED CON I RACT FOR '11111 SUPPLY OF lit.liCI RIC POWER AND ENERGY of March 31,1980, between Estes Park and lialle River provides, iii part: "Plotto River shall sell and deliver to Estes Park anci Estes Park shall purchase and receive from Platte River all electric power ancl energy which Estes Park shall require ....; provided Estes Park shall have the right lo continue to generate its own power and energy to the extent of the capacity of its generating facilities in service on September 5,1974." We see nothi,ig in the proposed plans of the 'Iown that would violate this provision, so long as the output of the refurbished plant would not exceed that of the plant in 1974. Under the contract, the Town retained Ilie right "to continue to generate its owh power and energy," to the stated extent. lhe fact that the Town might choofic to accomplish this !1-,ic,:Igh a third-patty op:,ratot-, 1Â·.Â·bc. had 76:mvated the plant, does not seem inconsistent with this provision, so long as the plant's size is not increased beyond that which existed in 1974. Please let us know if we can be of further assistance. Very truly yours, FLATIE RIVER POWER AUTHORITY /1 0% 00 Thaine J. Michie General Manager 6b-9 /ktiir . 116:14/,65; . I COMMUNICATIONS @ Fort Collins, Colorado A , July 3, 1992 Mr. Richard E. Matzke i Estes Park Light and Power P.O. Box 1200 Estes Park, Colorado 80517 Dear Mr. Matzke, The purpose of this correspondence is to respond to your June 4, 1992, letter regarding telephone service availability in Estes Park. For many years, our standard service in rural areas has been four-party service. Today, many customers in outlying areas are requesting one- party telephone service. To meet that demand, we are in the process of adding facilities to upgrade all four-party customers in the state, and installing facilities to enable us to provide one-party service 32, u to the customers we serve. However, in some areas, we are not able to ; * Ar meet the demand for one-party service at this time. This is the 6.9 : 4 situation we have in Estes Park. 1.4 4!" A.:, *'4:41':1 .Ler.â€ž 1, We recently filed a proposal with the Public Utilities Commission ?Flit'2' to complete the upgrades over a four-year period. It is our intent to - L upgrade Estes Park in the course of that plan. Until this plan is . approved and implemented, we will continue to work with customers to ALL meet their needs to the best of our ability.
