GOAL #10:
COMPLETE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
OVERHAUL ZONING ORDINANCE
PRIORITY: A
STAFF ASSIGNMENT: Steve Stamey
COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENT: Planning Commission
ACTION PLAN
The Estes Park Comprehensive Plan was adopted in 1978. Design
Studies West (DSW) has been hired by the Town of Estes Park to
prepare a new comprehensive plan.
Based on the new comprehensive plan, it follows that the zoning
ordinance should be updated to reflect current community values,
trends and desires.
ACTION STEPS
1. Comprehensive Plan, Phase I July - December 1992
This six-month work effort will consist of data collection,
community analysis, interviews, and a series of community
workshops. The 1992 budget included $30,000 for this phase.
2. Comprehensive Plan, Phase II January - October 1993
DSW will be the lead consultant. Based on workshops, Phase II
will consist of the preparation of a number of planning
elements which will set a framework for growth and development
for the next ten years. A series of public workshops will
also be conducted.
Phase II is budgeted at $200,000. Phase II will also include
updated economic and traffic components and a revision of the
Downtown Development Plan. EPURA will contribute $50,000 to
assist with these efforts. (Net to Town: $150,000)
3. Overhaul Zoning Ordinance January - November 19921k
It is anticipated that DSW will again be the lead consultant
for this re -write effort. Estimated cost: $25,000.

MAXIMIZE USE OF CONFERENCE CENTER
A
Steve Stamey
Community Development Committee
ACTION PLAN
Tom Pickering was hired in January 1990, as Marketing Director to
solicit and book conferences into the Estes Park Conference Center.
The Conference Center opened August 24, 1991. At the September 3,
1992, Community Development Committee meeting, a first -year
operating report was presented.
There are three strategies for Conference Center use:
1. Continue to actively market the Conference Center in the
regional conference market.
2. Identify opportunities for Conference Center off-season use
(July, August, January, February, March).
3. Identify opportunities for community use and events.
ACTION STEPS
1. Present Annual Report, which will
identify use levels.
2. Prepare/update 1993 Marketing Plan.
3. Develop Public Relations Program
to better distribute information
on Conference Center use.
4. Add Conference Center sign to identify
groups.
5. In order to maintain and expand the Estes
Park Conference Center's position in the
conference market, the proposed 1993
Conference Center budget includes addi-
tional emphasis on sales and marketing.
6. Develop ideas (Use Plan) for off-season
use, and use by local non-profit service
organizations.

GOAL #3: MAINTAIN STRONG FINANCIAL POSITION
PRIORITY: A
STAFF ASSIGNMENT: Rich Widmer
COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENT: Administrative Committee
ACTION PLAN
This target is a reaffirmation of existing and past Town policies
and actions. Even though much new infrastructure has been
constructed over the last decade, the financial position of the
Town remains strong. To illustrate, the General Fund year-end
balance has remained in excess of $1 million each year from 1982
through 1991. The Light & Power Fund year-end cash balances have
risen from $1.1. million at the end of 1982 to $2.2 million at the
end of 1991. During this same period, the Water Fund cash balance
has risen from $.7 million to $1.2 million. This Action Plan will
focus on how best to maintain this position.
Staff recommends adoption of the following policy statements:
1. The budget should be a planning document with realistic
forecasts of revenue and expenses.
2. Establish the following minimums for year-end balances in the
funds: General Fund, $300,000; Light & Power Fund,
$1,000,000; Water Fund, $500,000. These minimums would serve
as goals for staff during the budgeting process, but could be
varied by the Board to suit unusual years or economic
conditions.
3. Budgeted contingencies should be relatively small, $25-50,000
above that needed for salary adjustments.
4. The adopted Capital Improvement Plan (see Goal #6) should be
followed for budget priority and reserve requirements.
5. A written investment policy should be adopted by the Board.
6. A five-year revenue and expense forecast should be developed
and maintained. The budget should be compatible with the
forecast.
7. Interfund transfers should be rationally based.
8. Staff should continue to monitor monthly revenue and expense
line items closely for compliance with the budget.
Goal #3: Maintain Strong Financial Position (cont.)
ACTION STEPS
A. Develop written investment policy January 1993
B. Other budget policies November 1992
GOAL #4: PLAN AND PROMOTE MORE SPECIAL EVENTS
PRIORITY: A
STAFF ASSIGNMENT: Bob Scott
COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENT: Special Events Committee
ACTION PLAN
During the past three years, the Town has transitioned from the
Stanley Park operation into a multi -purpose, Special Events
Department.
The Special Events Department has continued to attract and support
the Summer equestrian events. In addition, the resources of the
Special Events Department have been used to support the on -going
variety of special events and stimulate new events.
We now are becoming more aware of the position of special events on
the calendar for economic stimulus.
ACTION STEPS
1. Annual review of 1991-92 events
(community meeting). These meetings are
intended to carefully examine cost-
effectiveness of events, weed out weak
events, start new events, and position
calendars.

area and other general concerns about shoulder and winter season
activities, the Town's Community Development Committee established
an Economic Development Study Group. Meetings were held starting
in March of 1992.
The Committee will focus their efforts on updating the economic
development options recommended by Browne, Bortz, and Coddington,
dated 1983. The categories are as follows:
• Problems and Limitations

Research Associates. In summary, the Study indicates
Arena would have a significant impact on the local
However, the costs are not covered by the extended
Since completion of the 1988 Study, the Town has built a
Conference Center. Many of the multi -purpose functions
identified in the Study now take place at the Conference
Center.
Again in July of 1992, the Town reviewed The Stanley Park
Master Plan. A report was prepared by Thorpe and Associates,
Preliminary Design Study and Master Plan review -- Estes Park
Events Center. The purpose of the report was to review the
plans for a multi -purpose indoor arena and to reexamine the
spacial relationships of buildings and functions at Stanley
Park.
During the review of the Master Plan, the Town Board
instructed Town Attorney Greg White to examine the title of
Stanley Park and to initiate the appropriate action to remedy
the title.
In conclusion, The Stanley Park arena appears to draw economic
and functional support. Staff thinks it would be an asset to
the community. However, the changing equestrian market,
competition for special events and the needed subsidies
indicate the need for strong community support for the arena
project. Therefore, we recommend the project be put to an
election.
ACTION STEPS
1. Complete Stanley Park title search.

GOAL #11: COMPLETE WINDY GAP SALE
PRIORITY: A
STAFF ASSIGNMENT: Monte Vavra
COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENT: Public Works Committee
ACTION PLAN
This goal is a reaffirmation of the importance of completing
the sales of our Windy Gap water to Superior Metropolitan
District No. 1. This sale of 35 units of Windy Gap Project
water rights was made in 1989. The Town received a long-term
note in the amount of $2,543,737 due in four annual
installments of $635,934 plus interest at the Town's average
investment rate of return. On March 10, 1992, the Town Board
approved the 7th Amendment to the sales contract to allow
Superior Metropolitan District to make the 1992 payment in
eight installments. To date, all 1992 payments have been
received in a timely manner. A $635,934 payment plus interest
is due March 1, 1993. Recommended actions are:
1. Continue to monitor payments due to the Town. Notify
Town Attorney White if the payments are not received.
2. Monitor the yearly debt service payment of approximately
$750,000 Superior is required to make to the Conservancy
District on April 1st. Plan cash flows so sufficient
funds are on hand for the Town to make the payment if
required.
ACTIONS STEPS
A. Monitor yearly payment. March -Oct. 1993
B. Monitor debt service payment. April 1st each year
GOAL #12: DEVELOP PARR AND RIDE SYSTEM
PRIORITY: A
STAFF ASSIGNMENT: Bill Linnane
COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENT: Public Works Committee
ACTION PLAN
Develop the Park and Ride System as an annual Town project.
The goal each year will be to generate a daily minimum of 50
extra parking spaces from July 1st through September 15th. A
shuttle system, similar to the current trolley system, will be
an important part of the program.
ACTION STEPS
The steps required to achieve a successful Park and Ride
system each year are as follows:
1. Establish a review committee composed
of private business owners and employees
and Town staff.
Fall 1992
2. The review committee shall (a) review the Fall 1992
totals for the summer; (b) critique the
annual program for improvement; (c) prepare
the following year's park and ride program.
This will include alternate plans (i.e.,
trolley vs. Charles Limousine), advertising
schedule, cost projections, etc.
3. The review committee will coordinate with January 1993
the Public Works Department and present the
summary of the past year and the recommendation
for the upcoming year. The review committee
will establish an advertising schedule.
4. The Public Works Committee will approve the March 1993
proposed annual system.

GOAL #13: ENCOURAGE STRONG CULTURAL ARTS PROGRAM
PRIORITY: A
STAFF ASSIGNMENT: Gary Riaphake
COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENT: Community Development Committee
ACTION PLAN
The Cultural Arts can be defined very broadly to include visual
arts, museums, performing arts, and even literature. In order to
clarify the purpose and focus on short-term accomplishable goals,
a research and study trip was taken to Steamboat Springs, Colorado,
in August 1992.
Some observations from this trip include:
a. The Town is not prepared in the short-term to fund
the building of an Art Museum.
b. The Town is not prepared in the short-term to build
a performing arts complex.
c. The fate of the Estes Park Historical Museum should
be kept separate from cultural arts program plans.
All of these may be reexamined as the cultural arts community grows
and expands over time.
In clarifying ways to support cultural arts in the next few years,
the visual arts seem in the strongest position to benefit. Two
organizations stand out, namely the Cultural Arts Council of Estes
Park and the Art Center of Estes Park.
With limited resources for this support, the Town will focus its
support on only one organization in order to produce a high quality
product. Dividing funds and effort is an ineffective response to
the goal.
After much discussion with Town Trustees and members of the public
regarding this choice, it appears that the Art Center of Estes Park
has the physical energy to rally support around its goals. Its
direction and purpose is clear. It appears that financial support
from the Town could more directly develop an effective Cultural
Arts program and create a measurable benefit to the public through
supporting the Art Center.
The Town's support would include direct financial assistance in
grant form and indirect assistance through activities like
accessing the Town's advertising program. In return for this
support, the Town would request that the Art Center expand its
mission and bylaws (new and improved Art Council) to focus more on
14
Goal #13: Encourage Strong Cultural Arts Program (cont.)
outreach education, and expand its board to include some at -large
representation of the arts community, appointed by the Mayor
(transfer some of the Cultural Arts Council leadership).
ACTION STEPS
1. Discussions with Art Center, Town Board Sept. 1992
and Community members.
2. Town budget approved with funds to support Nov. 1992
the Arts Center under the expanded scope.
3. Art Center implements changes in mission, Jan. 1993
bylaws, and board representation.
4. Art Center develops programs to provide 1993-1994
outreach to the community in the cultural
arts.

GOAL #14: MAXIMIZE DOWNTOWN PARKING
PRIORITY: A
STAFF ASSIGNMENT: Dave Racine
COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENT: Public Safety Committee
ACTION PLAN
Develop alternatives to maximize downtown parking. Choose
an alternative and implement strategy. The alternatives
will be chosen based on cost and the increased benefits to
the Town residents and merchants.
Maximization of downtown parking will be achieved in two
phases:
Phase 1: Development of parking alternatives.
Phase 2: Choosing an alternative.
ACTION STEPS
Phase I. Development of Parking Alternatives. December 1992
Staff will meet to "brainstorm" an alternatives list. The
following list will be a starting point.
A. Do nothing.
Here we adopt the philosophy that the Town has reached
maximum capacity. This alternative is based on the
fact that costs exceed benefits.
B. Diversionary Programs instead of construction of new
parking lots.
Park and Ride is a prime example. The 1992 program
proved that improvement was possible through
cooperative effort. This system could be continued and
most probably improved.
C. New Parking Lot Construction.
Inexpensive parking, such as the new MacGregor Avenue
widening, will be explored first. Multi -level parking
garages would then be researched.
16
Goal #14: Maximize Downtown Parking (cont.)
D. Relocation of Post Office.
This would free up space at a prime parking area. The
post office could possibly be relocated to Piccadilly
Square or West Park Shopping Center. The Town could
help finance the relocation if the cost and benefit
figures are solid.
E. Pay Parking Lots.
F. Consider Parking Improvement District.
Phase II: Choosing an Alternative. April 1993
Since this phase is a political action, a committee should
be established comprised of staff people, trustee(s), and
possibly a representative from the business community.
The alternatives and final decision should be determined by
the Public Safety Committee. The Public Safety Committee
should recommend the path to financing (i.e., 1994, 1995
budgets).
11,7
GOAL #15: COMPLETE CENTRALIZED MAIL DELIVERY
PRIORITY: A
STAFF ASSIGNMENT: Bill Linnane
COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENT: Public Works Committee
ACTION PLAN
To accomplish Centralized Mail Delivery, the Town must
provide approximately $90,000 in funding to construct
cluster box concrete bases and road widening. Staff must
also provide extensive manpower hours to establish cluster
box locations via site visits and neighborhood meetings.
The Town staff must establish approximately 90 cluster box
locations throughout the Town. This will be accomplished by
field visits, right-of-way research and neighborhood
meetings. Therefore, due to the expense and staff manpower
requirements, it is proposed to accomplish centralized
delivery in four to five yearly phases.
ACTION STEPS
The steps required to accomplish the first phase of the goal
are the following:
1. Budget $23,000 for 1993; likewise,
USPS will budget their portion for
cluster box purchases.
2. Summarize results of the USPS
questionnaire and use other reasoning
to determine location of Phase I.
Present proposed Phase I to Public
Works Committee.
November 1992
December 1992
3. USPS and Town to establish preliminary
locations of actual boxes based on right-
of-way research and site visits.
4. Organize neighborhood group meeting to
discuss preliminary location of the
boxes and establish final locations.
Public Works committee to approve the
final locations.
5. Bid the Town portion of the project.
Public Works Committee to approve
bid award.

Goal #15: Complete Centralized Mail Delivery (cont.)
6. Install the cluster boxes and modify
the roadway if necessary.
7. Send a form letter to all affected
residents informing them to formally
change their mailing addresses with
the LISPS. Some residents may decide
to keep their boxes at the post office
and not change their mailing addresses.
8. Budget cluster box installation money
for 1994 and start process over until
centralized mail delivery is provided
throughout the entire town limits.

WINCE OF 'K
Subj: Forwarding of ICMA Retirement Corporation Prototype Money Purchase Plan & Trust and
Adoption Agreement for the TOWN OF ESTES PARK
The ICMA Retirement Corporation is pleased to announce that it has received a favorable notification
letter from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) accepting the form of the ICMA Retirement Corporation
Prototype Money Purchase Plan and Trust. The Plan is a nonstandardized, regional prototype plan, and
the Retirement Corporation is the Plan sponsor.
The Tax Reform Act of 1986 (TRA '86) and the Technical and Miscellaneous Revenue Act of 1988
(TAMRA '88) required several technical changes to all qualified retirement plans. Most of these
changes became operationally effective on January 1, 1989. The Retirement Corporation advised
participating employers of these changes between 1987 and 1989 and has been operating your plan
according to the new requirements since January 1, 1989. However, TRA '86 and TAMRA '88
allowed employers until the end of the 1993 plan year to actually amend their plan documents to
incorporate these changes.
In keeping with our commitment to provide you with easy to administer retirement plans, the Retirement
Corporation amended your plan documents for you, in the form of the ICMA Retirement Corporation
Prototype Money Purchase Plan and Trust. Adoption of this prototype plan will keep your plan in
compliance with the changes required by TRA '86 and TAMRA '88 and with all current federal laws
and regulations of the IRS.
Enclosed is a copy of the ICMA Retirement Corporation Prototype Money Purchase Plan and Trust and
the ICMA Retirement Corporation Prototype Money Purchase Plan and Trust Adoption Agreement.
To assist you in adopting the plan amendments, the Adoption Agreement has been completed to reflect
the terms of your plan, as adopted by you and administered by the Retirement Corporation.
ICMA-RC Services, Inc.
Member NASD and SIPC. ;s a wholly owned broker -dealer subsidiary of the ICMA Retirement Corporation
Because the plan amendments involve your employees' rights under the plan, we urge you to have these
amendments adopted by your governing body. However, under the terms of the plan you originally
adopted, the Retirement Corporation may amend your plan upon thirty (30) days written notification
to you; provided that any such amendment must be for the express purpose of maintaining compliance
with applicable federal laws and regulations of the IRS. The amendments to your plan, as reflected in
the enclosed documents, are for the purpose of maintaining compliance with applicable federal laws and
regulations of the IRS. Therefore, if we have not received a duly executed Adoption Agreement from
you by October 04, 1992, the TOWN OF ESTES PARK will be deemed to have adopted the
amendments as included herein.
Please note that although you have adopted a prototype document, the features you have elected
in your Adoption Agreements do not allow you to consider your plan a "prototype plan". Your
plan is classified by the IRS as an individually designed plan, which you must submit to the IRS
for a determination letter if you wish to obtain assurance that the plan is qualified.
The Retirement Corporation will continue to notify you of any amendments it makes to the prototype
plan. However as the adopter of an individually designed plan, you will be responsible for maintaining
the qualification of your plan. If you would like information on converting your individually designed
plan to the Retirement Corporation's Prototype Plan, please let us know.
The Retirement Corporation is pleased to have the TOWN OF ESTES PARK as a client and to provide
assistance whenever possible. If you have any questions or if the documents are not consistent with
your understanding of your plan features, please call me at 800-669-7400.
Sincerely,
George W. Hawkins, Jr.
Qualified Plan Analyst
