Road construction diversions and detours are set up with vehicular traffic in mind,
but never a thought to pedestrians. The result is that pedestrians are often left with
no option besides walking in the road along with traffic- VERY DANGEROUS. This
is acceptable for very short term diversions, but not for months (e.g. the roundabout
construction at Moraine/Riverside; the Virginia/Elkhorn intersection). Could there be
some condition attached to future construction contracts that requires some
accommodation for pedestrians when the existing sidewalk/shoulder is impassable
for more than x days/weeks?

Downtown traffic congestion from private vehicles is by far the most significant
transportation issue in Estes Park. The packet for the current meeting describes a
proposed 300 space parking structure in the downtown core with estimated cost
$17M ($35K per space), site selection beginning in 2030 and completion in 2031.
Adding 300 additional parking spaces in the downtown core will only make the
problem worse by encouraging visitors to drive into the downtown. The only
sustainable solution to our congestion is to encourage visitors to park at the
periphery (currently underutilized sites like the fairgrounds) and rely on pedestrian or
trolley options for access to the downtown core. The $17M proposed for this
downtown parking structure could be much better spent investing in better
pedestrian access and trolley service.

Town of Estes Park, Larimer County, Colorado, February 21, 2024

Jessica Ferko, Ann Finley, Larry Gamble, Linda Hanick, Mark Igel, and
Gordon Slack; Trustee Patrick Martchink; Staff Liaison Greg Muhonen
Attending: Chair Morris; Vice-Chair Ekeren; Members Bernal, Finley, Gamble, Hanick,

PUBLIC COMMENT
None.
APPROVAL OF MINUTES DATED JANUARY 17, 2024
It was moved and seconded (Gamble/Ekern) to approve the January 17, 2024,
minutes with a minor amendment, and it passed unanimously.
2045 TRANSPORTATION MASTER PLAN & 2030 TRANSIT DEVELOPMENT PLAN
Consultant Pratt presented the 2045 Transportation Plan, with clarifications provided as
needed by Manager Solesbee. Presentation summary points included the phenomenal
level of public engagement on the online survey and interactive mapping tool, the results
of which will remain accessible for viewers; the constructiveness and positivity of
comments received; respondent perception, habits, and requests regarding transit; the
ranking and summary descriptions of the Plan’s goals, and how they will be prioritized by
the Steering Committee and public involvement; and concepts for transit improvements
regarding frequency of routes and service, new types of service, and infrastructure
projects.
Discussion points for the survey included the importance of distinguishing between visitor
and resident feedback; the decision to measure user demographic for the survey but not
the mapping tool; public engagement activity following informational mailings,
presentations, and other gatherings; the desire to be environmentally thoughtful and
resilient in the final version of the plan; the definition and clarification of Vulnerable Road
User (VRU) as someone not enclosed in a vehicle; the need to address emergency
evacuation planning with engagement of the Larimer County Sheriff and Colorado State
5
Patrol; the need to describe the transit hub and why the location was chosen; and
economic development factors for Colorado Highway 7 (CO 7) businesses. Consultant
Pratt advised that topical white papers would be reviewed by the Steering Committee and
featured on the website. An open house/workshop is being planned for March, so that
public feedback can help shape the prioritization process and the development of a final
report that addresses realistic, achievable goals.
ENGINEERING UPDATE
Engineer Bailey reported that the Visitor Center Parking Lot Redesign contract would be
presented at the February 27 Town Board meeting. If approved, construction could begin
immediately.
Utility relocations continue for the Cleave Street Improvements project, with Xcel currently
moving the gas main and tying in services; Power and Communications work will follow.
TDS lines were discovered and will be moved. The construction contract will be presented
at the February 27 Town Board meeting; if approved, the work would begin after the
contractor officially completes another Town project. The original goal of a June hard stop
for concrete work is not realistic, but utilities should be done by June. TAB members were
encouraged to invite people to sign up for the CSI Project Communications email list for
weekly and as-needed communications.
A contractor staging area is needed for the Graves Avenue-Safe Routes to School
project. Staff is working with the Estes Park School District for temporary use of school
property, after which the bid will be advertised with the goal to complete construction by
mid-August.
Regarding the ongoing topic of pedestrian safety at Lexington Lane and CO 7, Member
Gamble reported that a past traffic study did not warrant traffic signal placement there.
Estes Park Middle School Principal John Bryant is in favor of exploring parental
preference for an official crossing there this fall after the apartment complex is completed
and fully occupied. Chair Morris summarized the Step by Step: How to Start a Walking
School Bus at Your School packet item. Discussion points included using a survey to
gauge interest in such a program; how adult and student volunteer route leaders could
be organized; and the importance of evaluating the program’s effectiveness after any
implementation. Member Hanick will provide contact information for the Estes Park
Newcomers Club, whose members could be asked to help organize a safe crossing
program. It was agreed that this would be a demand-based project.
ADMINISTRATIVE UPDATE
Regarding Downtown Estes Loop (DEL) construction, Director Muhonen reported that
buried utilities have delayed work on the north side of the roundabout. The post office
parking lot should be paved in May.
The Big Horn Parking Lot Micro-Structure Request for Proposals (RFP), started by
Manager Solesbee and Engineer Bailey, will be assigned to the new project manager,
whose employment begins March 25.
6
US 34 Coalition members will gather on March 6 for a kick-off meeting to establish
governance and membership structures for the developing US 34 Transportation
Management Organization (TMO). Steer Group Consulting will lead the meeting.
The first phase of the CDOT US 34/36 Overlay Project started on February 19 with
placement of temporary traffic signals for the retaining wall work along Moraine Avenue.
The second phase, paving of the project area, is expected to be completed by September.
TAB members were invited to attend a farewell gathering on February 22 for Manager
Solesbee, whose last date of employment is March 1.
Member Hanick inquired about maintenance needed at the Baldwin Park bridge; Director
Muhonen will have the Parks Division evaluate.
TRANSIT UPDATE
Supervisor Klein summarized the 2023 Year-End Report for The Peak, starting with
images of the new branding. Due to fewer exterior advertisement spaces on rental buses,
some sponsor dollars were lost; however, use of a local sign service reduced costs for
the new branding. For the 157-day transit season, ridership was 99,472, up from 73,266
in 2022. Special Event ridership is an ongoing measure; the Wine & Chocolate Festival
hosted 134 riders, and the Estes Valley Library’s (EVL) Daniel Tiger Day hosted 105
riders. With RATP Dev costs up for 2024, staff is seeking alternate funding for the transit
program.
Paid parking rates for the 2024 season will be recommended to the Town Board on March
12. Although no changes are being recommended, this administrative formality is required
in the Estes Park Municipal Code.
DISCUSSION OF THE TAB AS AD HOC COMMITTEE
Trustee Martchink reported that only one TAB member had responded to the February 7
“TAB/Ad hoc feedback” email survey. The meaning of ad hoc, as it could apply to the
TAB, was summarized. Discussions points included sensitivity to staff time between and
during TAB meetings; reducing the frequency of meetings but still emailing a packet
during the off-months to engage members on non-actionable topics; how having a regular
meeting time each month functions as a focus group, allowing for robust conversations
that might not otherwise take place; the TAB’s service as a conduit between the Town
and the community; the possibility of scheduling agenda-driven meetings according to
seasonal impacts on member attendance; the inefficiency of meetings that repeat
information provided through other Town meetings or platforms; how expanding the
agenda item titles can encourage public attendance; how the packet itself could
determine whether a meeting should actually be held in a given month; and how having
regular meetings provides good opportunity to have timely topics presented by agencies
like CDOT and Rocky Mountain National Park (RMNP). Trustee Martchink thanked the
TAB for their feedback and will provide a summary to the Town Board.

Implementation is where the rubber meets the road (or in this case
trail)! The implementation chapter weaves together all the work an
inputs generated during the Estes Valley Master Trails Plan process
into a prioritized set of recommendations, complete with cost
estimates and funding opportunities. The following chapter contains
a project priority list, implementation strategies for completing
trail projects, a cost estimation table, and a list of potential funding
sources and grant opportunities.
PROJECT PRIORITY LIST
The following project priority criteria was developed through the
public and partner engagement process and reflects the input
and preferences of both the community and the partner land
management agencies to prioritize the implementation of the trail
projects.
• Public Input, Support
• Immediate Connectivity
• Potential Funding/ Grant Readiness
• Number of Users Benefited
• Variety of Users Benefited
• Property Ownership - Access, Easement Issues
• Unique Barriers such as high costs, extreme topography,
construction challenges, environmental challenges
• Safety Improvement/ Safe Route to School
• ADA Improvement
The following project priority table contains the priority ranking for
each trail project considered in the plan. Projects are prioritized
within three broad categories: EVRPD core trail network, short-
term opportunities that could be implemented in 2-5 years, and
long-term opportunities that may require a longer timeframe for
implementation. Projects are ordered in terms of priority rank and
correspond to the trail numbers provided in Chapter 6 and on the
Master Trails Plan Maps.

Development Process:
EVRPD Work Plan – Current year CIP
projects are finalized on a yearly basis +
planned 5 years out
EVRPD + Partners communicate yearly (or as needed)
to discuss project priorities, joint funding applications,
planning for grant matches, easement/land ownership
clarification, ROW acquisition, stakeholder planning,
reconnaissance, compliance, etc.
- Project(s) are selected based on criteria identified in
master plan + ability to be funded/constructed.
- All necessary planning partners convene to discuss
project scope + next steps.
- EVRPD + Partners determine whether project
needs feasibility study or other studies prior to
design.
- Funding is found for part or all of design +
construction.
- Project moves forward into further study or design
contract
Project ideas/amenities/materials/alignment are vetted
by the public during feasibility/design phase
Once project design has been approved, funding must
be found for construction/ implementation if not
already secured.
Funding secured, project gets built!
