Report
To: Honorable Mayor Hall & Board of Trustees
Through: Town Administrator Machalek
From: Jackie Williamson, Town Clerk
Dan Kramer, Town Attorney
Department: Town Clerk and Attorney
Date: October 14, 2025
Subject: Vacation Home Regulations Update
Purpose of Study Session:
Staff will review and receive direction from the Town Board on a number of vacation
home regulations pertaining to transferability, hosted vacation homes, and the
residential vacation home waitlist. Miscellaneous code amendments will also be
presented for Board consideration and direction.
Town Board Direction Requested:
Staff requests direction on how to move forward with each vacation home regulation,
licensing, and violation presented.
Present Situation:
The Town Board has held a number of study sessions related to the discussion topics
throughout the year. The Board has provided direction on key elements as it relates to
transferability, hosted vacation homes, and the formation of a new residential vacation
home waitlist. Staff has discussed each and is ready to provide a review of key
elements to be included in an ordinance(s) to address each topic.
In addition to discussing the previously noted items, additional miscellaneous licensing
and violation issues have been noted by staff. Over the past couple of years there has
been an increase in the number of vacation home applications that do not complete the
application process, with many failing to meet one of the deadlines outlined in the
regulations. When this occurs the entire application fee is returned to the applicant;
however, many staff hours have been dedicated to the processing and monitoring of the
application.
Advertising of unlicensed vacation homes has also increased and noted through the
Town’s third-party vendor. For example, a property in town received five (5) violations
this year which began with advertising a property without a license and then for renting
the property without a license with the full understanding they were in violation of the
code. During discussions with the Town Prosecutor, she noted the advertising alone
may not be considered a violation of the Municipal Code by the Municipal Judge and
could be dismissed by the Judge.
Proposal:
Staff will review a draft concept, review Board direction, and key staff draft language in
advance of drafting an ordinance for consideration on transferability. Staff will provide
an overview of draft code amendments to address hosted vacation homes and the
waitlist for residentially zoned vacation homes. Final drafts of the ordinance(s) to be
brought forward for Board consideration at the November 12, 2025 meeting.
Staff requests the Board consider a $200 fee to apply for a vacation home. This fee
would be applied to the annual license fee if the application is completed. The Town
would otherwise retain the fee for the staff time expended on processing and monitoring
the application process.
Town Prosecutor Rocklin has recommended the Board consider adding code language
that clearly outlines advertising a vacation home for rent as a violation of the code. This
would allow Code Enforcement to write tickets for property’s found advertising
unlicensed properties and allow for prosecution.
Advantages:
Provides staff with clear direction to draft ordinance(s) for Board consideration at the
November 12, 2025 meeting.
Disadvantages:
None.
Financial/Resource Impact:
Staff time depending on the direction received by the Board
Level of Public Interest:
Low at this time for the general community but high for those interested in operating a
vacation homes.

Report
To: Honorable Mayor Hall & Board of Trustees
From: Town Administrator Machalek
Department: Town Administrator’s Office
Date: October 14, 2025
Subject: Visit Estes Park Intergovernmental Agreement with Larimer County
Purpose of Study Session Item:
Review of draft edits to the Town’s Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) with Larimer
County for Visit Estes Park (VEP).
Town Board Direction Requested:
Does the draft IGA meet the Town Board’s needs or are there edits that the Board
would like staff to discuss with the County prior to bringing the IGA back for
consideration at a future Town Board meeting?
Present Situation:
On May 6, the Town Board and Board of County Commissioners met for a joint session
to discuss Visit Estes Park. One of the agenda items at that meeting was a review of the
IGA between the Town and the County that formed VEP and continues to guide its
operations. Per Town Board direction, Town Attorney Kramer and I worked with County
Attorney Ressue and County Manager Volker to review the current IGA and draft
proposed changes. The current IGA is contained in two documents: the 2019 IGA and
the 2023 Amendment to the IGA (both attached for reference).
At the May 27 Town Board Study Session, the Board discussed proposed changes to
the IGA at a conceptual level. Town Attorney Kramer and I took the Board’s feedback
from that meeting and worked with County Attorney Ressue and County Manager
Volker to create the proposed Restated Intergovernmental Agreement for the Estes
Park Local Marketing District.
Proposal:
The proposed IGA includes the following significant modifications:
• Cleans up the provisions for elections if VEP seeks or is required to submit any
question to an election. (Section 5)
• Reduces the number of VEP Directors through natural attrition from seven to five,
with three Town-appointed Directors and two County-appointed Directors.
(Section 6.2)
• Requires that two of the Town appointees shall be chosen from the Town Board
and that one County appointee shall be chosen from the Board of County
Commissioners. (Section 6.3)
• Creates a new quorum of three Directors and requires three affirmative votes for
the VEP Board to act. (Section 6.9)
• Changes the process for removing an appointed Director. Instead of requiring a
majority of the collective governing members of the County and the Town to
remove a member of the VEP Board, the Town may remove any Town
appointee, and the County may remove any County appointee. (Section 6.13)
• Establishes a Marketing Advisory Committee and provides a mechanism for
current VEP Directors to transition to that Committee without an interview.
(Section 7)
• Requires VEP to include a policy and bylaw compliance report for the previous
12-month period and a proposed line-item budget in the annual Operating Plan.
(Section 8.1)
• Requires a majority vote of each entity to terminate the IGA and dissolve VEP.
(Section 10.1)
Advantages:
• Properly aligns the power to remove a VEP Board member with the governing
board that made the appointment.
• Addresses concerns expressed about the VEP Board’s focus on governance by
requiring three elected officials to serve on the VEP Board and adding
requirements to the annual Operating Plan.
• Creates a Marketing Advisory Committee to provide detailed feedback on the
development and implementation of marketing strategies.
• Cleans up and restates the Town and County’s agreement for the operation of
VEP.
Disadvantages:
• Adds additional requirements for elements of the Operating Plan, which will take
more time for VEP staff to assemble.
Finance/Resource Impact:
No direct budget impact.
Level of Public Interest:
High.

RESTATED INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT
FOR THE ESTES PARK LOCAL MARKETING DISTRICT

August 2008 the Town and County signed an Intergovernmental Agreement forming the Estes
Park Local Marketing District (“District”), and such agreement was amended by written
amendments dated September 19, 2017, January 1, 2019, and January 1, 2023; and
WHEREAS, at the general election on November 4, 2008, the voters of the District
approved a two percent (2%) marketing and promotion tax on the purchase price paid or charged
to persons for rooms or accommodations; and
WHEREAS, at the general election on November 8, 2022, the voters of the District
approved an additional three and one-half percent (3.5%) marketing and promotional tax to be
used in furtherance of affordable workforce housing and childcare services, and such additional
tax revenue is administered by the Town; and
WHEREAS, the Town and County desire to enhance the focus of the District’s governing
board on the exercise of governance and oversight; and
WHEREAS, in furtherance of the purposes of the Act and the efficient and effective
operation of the District, the Town and County desire to amend and restate the IGA.
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration received and to be received, the
Town and County amend and restate their agreement forming and defining the operations of the
District and as follows:

Marketing District (“Agreement”) amends and fully restates and replaces the August 2008
agreement between the Town and County forming the District, including amendments in
2017, 2019, and 2023.
Attachment 1
2. Name and Purposes. The name of the District is the Estes Park Local Marketing District.
The purpose of the District is to promote the health, safety, prosperity, security, and general
welfare of the inhabitants and the property owners of the District and promote the continued
vitality of commercial business areas within the Town and County, including support for
affordable workforce housing and child care services.
3. Boundaries of Service Arca. The Service Area of the District is the geographical area
described and depicted on Exhibit "A" to this Agreement.
4. Powers. The powers of the District include those expressly set forth in C.R.S. 29-25-111 and
112, and those powers impliedly necessary to implement and carry out the express powers,
except as otherwise provided in this Agreement.
5. Elections.
5.1. Should the District seek or be required to submit any question to an election, such
election shall be held in accordance with Colorado Constitution Article X, Section 20,
the Uniform Election Code of 1992, C.R.S. 1-1-101 et seq., and/or the Colorado Local
Government Election Code, C.R.S. 1-13.5 110 et seq., as applicable.
5.2. The Town Clerk and the County Clerk and Recorder shall assist the District in
conducting elections.
5.3. The District shall pay the costs incurred in conducting District elections.
5.4. The Town Clerk shall be the designated Election Official for District elections.
5.5. The District shall be responsible for certifying ballot issues and entering into the
agreement Concerning Election Services with the County Clerk and Recorder for
purposes of conducting an election as part of a coordinated General Election.
5.6. The District shall be responsible for all other election related responsibilities related to
District elections.
6. Board of Directors for the District.
6.1. Powers. The Board of Directors for the District shall have the legislative power of the
District and is authorized to implement and carry out the annual operating plan
approved by the Town and County.
6.2. Number. The Board of Directors shall be comprised of five (5) Directors. The Board
was originally formed with and currently seats seven (7) Directors, and therefore the
Board composition must be reduced by two (2) Directors. This reduction shall occur
over time when each of the next two (2) existing Town appointed seats on the Board
not held by members of the Town Board of Trustees will dissolve as they become
vacant through expiration of a term or otherwise. Before or upon expiration of these
two seats, the outgoing Directors shall have the option to request transition to
membership on the Marketing Advisory Committee immediately upon its formation
without completing an interview process.
6.3. Appointment. The appointment of Directors of the Board shall be as follows:
6.3.1. The Town shall appoint three (3) Directors. Two (2) of the Town appointees shall
be chosen from the Town of Estes Park Board of Trustees. The third Town
appointee shall not be a member of the Town Board and shall be appointed by the
Town in compliance with eligibility requirements in this Section 6.
6.3.2. The County shall appoint two (2) Directors. One County appointee shall be
chosen from the Board of County Commissioners. The second County appointee
shall not be a member of the Board of County Commissioners and shall be
appointed by the County in compliance with eligibility requirements in Section 6.
The County need not replace their current appointees with a County
Commissioner but may await the expiration of those terms, currently sent to
expire at the end of 2027.
6.3.3. For the two appointees who are not elected officials of the Town or County,
preference may be given to applicants involved in the lodging industry in the
Estes Valley at the discretion of each appointing authority.
6.4. Term. The three (3) Directors who are also an elected Town Trustee or County
Commissioner shall serve terms that correspond with their elected terms of office and
their appointment by their respective board. The other two (2) non-elected Directors
shall serve terms of four (4) years each, staggered so that a term expires every two (2)
years. Given that the remaining Town-appointed seat not held by a Town Board
member would otherwise be set to expire at the end of 2030 and the County-appointed
seats are currently set to expire at the end of 2027, this staggering will be accomplished
by reducing the next term of the remaining Town-appointed seat that is not filled by a
Town Board member to three years, for one term only, expiring December 31, 2029.
6.5. Term Limit. The three (3) Directors who are also an elected Town Trustee or County
Commissioner shall have term limits that correspond with their elected office. The
other two (2) non-elected Directors may serve no more than two (2) consecutive terms;
however, the Town or County may waive this term limit for their respective appointees
upon finding there are no qualified applicants to fill a vacancy.
6.6. Residency. Each Director, except for the County appointee who is a County
Commissioner, shall be a resident of the Service Area of the District for at least one (1)
year prior to their appointment and shall continue to be a resident of the Service Area
during their entire term.
6.7. Officers. The officers of the Board of Directors shall consist of a Chair and a Vice-
Chair. Each officer shall serve for one (1) year commencing with the first meeting in
January of each year. The Chair and Vice-Chair may serve for two (2) consecutive one-
year terms. The Chair and Vice-Chair shall be elected by the members of the Board of
Directors. The Vice-Chair shall serve as the Chair in the absence of the Chair.
6.8. Bylaws. The Board of Directors for the District shall adopt bylaws that are consistent
with the terms of this Agreement and any amendments, and act in conformity with such
bylaws. Following adoption by the District Board, such bylaws, including any
amendments, shall become effective upon approval by the Town and County. No later
than ______________, the Board of Directors shall review and approve its bylaws and
present the updated bylaws to the Town and County for consideration and approval.
6.9. Quorum. Three (3) Directors shall constitute a quorum and shall be necessary for the
Board to act.
6.10. Attendance. Directors shall attend all meetings, including special meetings. In the event
any Director is absent for three (3) consecutive regular meetings or a total of four (4)
regular meetings in a calendar year, the Director may be removed by their appointing
body.
6.11. Vacancy. The Town or County shall fill vacancies of any of their appointed Directors
as soon as practical.
6.12. Meetings. The Board of Directors shall hold regular meetings at least once each quarter
and are encouraged to meet monthly and may hold special meetings as deemed
necessary. Any special meeting may only be held upon clearing the proposed date and
time with at least one of the County appointed Directors. Meetings of the Board of
Directors shall be subject to the provisions of C.R.S. 24-6-401 et seq. (Colorado
Sunshine Law) as applicable. The Board of Directors shall act by motion or resolution.
6.13. Removal. Directors serve at the pleasure of their appointing body and have no property
or other enforceable interest in their appointment. The Town may remove any Town
appointed Directors with or without cause, and the County may remove any County
appointed Directors with or without cause.
7. Marketing Advisory Committee.
7.1. By December 31, 2025 the Board of Directors shall form a Marketing Advisory
Committee, including operational documents that establish the structure and
expectations for the Committee.
7.2. The Marketing Advisory Committee shall, at a minimum, be charged with advising the

achieve organizational goals as defined by the Board of Directors. This includes
advising on the creation of marketing materials, social media, event planning, and
reviewing the effectiveness of campaigns. The Committee may also play a key role in
identifying potential sponsorships and partnerships and communicating with
stakeholders as directed by the Board of Directors. The Marketing Advisory
Committee shall be advisory only, and all direction and decisions of the District shall
come from the Board of Directors.
7.3. The Board of Directors shall strive for the membership of the Marketing Advisory
Committee to include, without limitation, a large hotel/motel owner (more than 20
rooms), a small hotel/motel owner (19 rooms or less), a vacation home rental owner or
property manager, a non-lodging business owner, and an at-large community member.

activities, services, and funding of the District in the upcoming calendar year. The
Operating Plan shall include a proposed revenue and expenditure line-item budget for

8.5. The District may amend the Operating Plan from time to time with the approval of both
the Town and County.
9. Workforce Housing and Childcare Funding Plan.
9.1. The Town shall file with the County no later than November 1st of each year a
Workforce Housing and Childcare Funding Plan (“Workforce Plan”) that references the
estimated revenues expected to be received from the District in the following year from
the 3.5% marketing and promotional tax dedicated to workforce housing and childcare,
as outlined in the District’s proposed Operating Plan, and how the Town plans to use
those funds to address workforce housing and childcare issues in the Estes Valley. The
Workforce Plan is expected to be a brief and broad overview of funding allocations and
priorities and need not detail each property expected to be served nor each action
expected to be taken.
9.2. The County shall approve or request changes to the Workforce Plan no later than
December 1st of the year in which such documents are filed. If changes are requested, a
joint meeting of the Town and County will be held to come to agreement on the
