Town of Estes Park and developers held 2 public meetings offering the opportunity to share info about project site and early phases of planning. JAN 2022 Conversation continues on Development Agreement. Public meeting held at Fish Hatchery site. JUN 2022 Another public meeting to provide neighbors to learn about proposed rezoning of the site from Accommodations to Multi-Family Residential. JUL 2022 Town of Estes Park approved Multi-Family Residential rezoning of site. OCT 2022 Estes Valley Housing Needs Assessment & Strategic Plan completed. JAN 2023 Town of Estes Park partners with the Estes Park Housing Authority to move this project forward and explore development potentially public-owned workforce housing. JUL 2023 AmericaWest Housing Solutions is unable to reach agreement with the Town after 2 years. OCT 2023 JUL 2021 Town of Estes Park entered into Exclusive Negotiation Agreement with AmericaWest Housing Solutions and Consolidated Housing Solutions as developer of Fish Hatchery property.

A large part of the site will remain undisturbed or minimally impacted native landscape. The site plan aims to concentrate development in areas that have already been disturbed. Most units face out onto common green courts and there is a community park within a 10-minute walk from any unit on site ensuring that all residents have easy access to outdoor amenities. Access to the river is defined and controlled to key locations in order to reduce the impact on the riparian corridor yet allow residents the benefit of access to nature. Activity nodes represent amenities ranging from a park bench to a larger gathering area such as a playground and picnic shelter. A hierarchy of pedestrian circulation, including the multi-use path, sidewalks, and soft-surface trails connect common areas and amenities, and extend out from the site boundaries to connect to the adjacent neighborhood and National Park.

Existing sanitary sewer to be removed or abandoned in place Proposed sanitary sewer alignment Existing sanitary sewer to remain Proposed water main extension from McGregor Tank (main loop) Proposed water main tie-in to existing main Summary_of_Conceptual_Design - Water: McGregor tank will be utilized for water supply. A water main extension from the existing 8" water tank main line will be required to service the site. The water main will loop back into the existing system at the lower elevation in the southeastern corner of the site, within Fish Hatchery Rd. - Sanitary: partial rerouting is planned to follow proposed roads and to improve a low-slope section towards the eastern portion of the site partially traversing the old Fish Hatchery pond. Ground cover will be critical to maintain in areas south (downslope) of existing sanitary main. - Shallow utitilies: intended to generally follow existing and proposed right-of-ways. - Grading and Drainage: proposed development areas and slopes are generally favorable for mountainous terrain. Steep slope areas are generally avoided, though localized walls may be needed in some areas. Water quality ponds and/or other stormwater infrastructure will be utilized to treat stormwater runoff before discharge to Fall River. - Land Surveying: boundary work is in progress, wetlands flagging has been surveyed and is shown on this plan. Base map information and LIDR survey data shown on this map were provided by Landmark Engineering, issued May 16, 2023. There is an error in the ALTA's depiction of the National Park Service road deed (as recorded in 1924). We have confirmed this error through our work and have reviewed with the NPS's surveyor, and have mutually agreed to recreate the road as necessary based on the existing location. This includes the realignment of the westernmost portion of Fish Hatchery Road. Conceptual Site Plan Neighborhood Meeting - 3/26/25 Water notes: ll water calculations to be confirmed through further analysis, including water system modeling, hydrant flow testing, and final water supply calculations. Areas below 40-50 psi will need an in-depth analysis of fire flow conditions. There may be limitations of product type that can be constructed in this zone due to fire flow constraints. A maximum of 1,500 GPM during fire flow conditions is being used as the basis for design. The proposed system will not support greater fire flow demands without additional upgrades. Water systems specialist Aquaworks has been contracted to provide detailed analysis and recommendations. MEP engineer shall review code compliance and specify pump/ pressure tank systems for domestic supply. Fire Protection engineer shall review code compliance and specify fire protection systems for each structure as required by code. 40 psi calculated minimum pressure available in this development area east of the proposed water main extension Existing 2" PE water line to be removed NOT TO SCALE UTILITY PLAN PROJECT OVERVIEW & SITE PLAN RG P el-O na a rchitects & U rbanists - sc J s t U di O - M arcin e ngineering FISH HATCHERY RD The gradation of density across the site intends to address the existing adjacent features. Higher density is discreetly tucked into the hillside with apartments concealed at the center of the site and townhomes, duplexes and single family homes addressing the water’s edge and eastern lot line. A system of green courts abut the river’s edge contributing to the network of trails and open space and allowing all community members access to the site’s natural amenities. Existing wetlands are scattered about the property. The street and block layout is organized to avoid the ecologically rich areas while allowing homes to face onto them with appropriate setbacks. Existing trees are preserved throughout the site. The general landscaping for the site is natural and aims to preserve existing vegetation. Areas that have lawn will be limited to select common outdoor spaces such as green courts and the neighborhood park. The site plan is organized to work with the steeply sloping topography with a system of streets, alleys and open spaces. Building types offer a diversity of housing options, tucking into hillsides, stepping with grade, and offering outdoor amenities on flatter lots. Walk-up apartments are at the center of the neighborhood plan. These two-story structures have parking concealed at the interior of the block and front onto a courtyard. Uphill 1-car garage townhomes are built into the hillside along the northern hillside of the property. The existing building shall be renovated and serve as the leasing office for Estes Park Housing Authority. Historic Fall River Hydroplant O’Connor Pavilion A cul-de-sac at the eastern edge of the property is surrounded by single family homes. The majority of the neighborhood has homes that are rear-loaded with front porches that prioritize neighborly interactions. Streets are designed with detached sidewalks and parking on one side. Neighborhood access to the river will be limited to specific areas. Native vegetation and habitat will be preserved along the entirety of both northern and southern banks. A linear green court is open to the public and provides outdoor space for all residents. It connects to a pavilion that is set amongst the native habitat along Fall River. Visitors to the museum have access to parking at the looping road in front of the museum. When entering from the western access to the site off of Fall River Road, visitors will be greeted by a community-oriented building and neighborhood park with the terminated view that highlights a neighborhood pavilion and provides access to the edge of Fall River. The multi-use path veers off of Fish Hatchery Road and swings close to the river near the museum. It is designed to avoid pedestrian- vehicle conflict and to highlight the museum. A neighborhood park is central to the site. It provides outdoor space for residents and is large enough to throw a frisbee or kick a ball. The southern edge of the park is defined by the multi-use path and buffered by native the vegetation of the nearby wetlands. Stanley Hotel Landmark District Boundary Stormwater detention is located at low points of the site. Potential emergency services and evacuation access may provide restricted connectivity for emergencies. Pedestrian access from the neighborhood to the Visitor Center and other facilities at the plaza will extend from the sidewalk system on Fish Hatchery Road to the northwest.
