From: Derek Fortini, Museum Director
Date: January 26, 2017
RE: Museum Quarterly Report
Background:
Attendance Highlights
On October 6, Dr. James Pickering held a lecture at the Museum, the last of
seven programs that complimented the "Drawn to Black Canyon: The History and
Beauty of MacGregor Ranch” temporary exhibit.
On November 21 and 22 Curator of Education Rochambeau spent time in the
third-grade classrooms for a program on the Native American history of Estes
Park. The students saw archaeological evidence of indigenous people living in
the area, had a discussion, and ended the lesson with a craft activity.
From December 1 - 3 the Museum collaborated with the Estes Valley Model
Railroaders Club and the Estes Valley Library to host an exhibit on the club's 40-
year history and offer Storytime for young children and families.

Collection Highlights
Highlights from fourth quarter donations include:
o One painting by local artist Dave Stirling
o Two prints by local etcher Lyman Byxbe
o Photographs and letters from a former driver for the Rocky Mountain
Transportation Company
o Clothing that once belonged to Alice Whowell (a former Big Thompson
Canyon resident)
o A full set of dishes from Steads Ranch

Rocky Mountain Transportaion Company capturing Elkhorn Avenue looking west.
Processing the Estes Valley Library District archives continues. The current
focus is on the oral history portion of the transfer. The Library actively conducted
and collected hundreds of oral histories. At some point in time they shared
copies with the Estes Park Museum, so weeding out duplications is taking place
in order to create a full comprehensive collection.
5
The uploading of nearly 30,000 artifact records to our website is compete (this
was made possible through a Statewide Internet Portal Authority grant received
in 2016). Curator of Collections Mucci is continuing to work with two volunteers
on refining metadata attached to the online catalogue to yield better, more
precise search results for users. It is a long process, but greatly beneficial to the
public. There have been 1,247 searches conducted online in the fourth quarter.
Exhibits
Permanent Exhibit: Tracks In Time
In the 4th quarter or 2016, staff was able to finish updates to the permanent
exhibit that were funded by a private individual. The final changes included the
installation of a montage of 2013 flood oral histories and the installation of a
display case capturing the changes in recreation and downtown throughout Estes
Park history. These final touches have been very well received by gallery
visitors.

“A Downtown to Discover” Display
“Recreation through the Years” Display
Ongoing Temporary Exhibit
Drawn to Black Canyon: The Beauty and History of MacGregor Ranch closed on
October 30, 2016. This was a great collaboration with MacGregor Ranch. Both
organizations were very happy with attendance and how both were able to refer
visitors to each other. Also, one of the artists that loaned artwork for the exhibit
ended up donating two pieces to the Estes Park Museum collection upon the
completion of the exhibit.

Upcoming Programs*
January 19 from 10-11:30 – Nineteen Seventeen Book Club Kick-Off (a
collaboration with the Estes Valley Library District)
February 16 from 10-11:30 – Nineteen Seventeen Book Club (a collaboration
with the Estes Valley Library District)
March 11 from 2-4 p.m. – Searching the Estes Park Museum Collection Online
Workshop (taking place at the Estes valley Library computer lab, led by Museum
staff)
March 16 from 10-11:30 – Nineteen Seventeen Book Club (a collaboration with
the Estes Valley Library District)
*In preparation for the Museum remodel, the Museum
meeting/programming room has been taken offline until June of 2017. In
light of this, staff is striving to partner with other entities to host
programming as well as increase outreach efforts (especially in gaining
outside support for the Town Centennial celebration taking place all year).
Other Highlights:
The Museum building sign has been replaced and updated featuring the new
Museum Logo and revised gallery hours.
Curator of Education Rochambeau, Town Centennial Celebration Planning
Committee Chair, is beginning to implement the year's activities. Part of her
responsibilities include fundraising for the Legacy Project (leading to
improvements to the Knoll-Willows Open Space) through donations and public
outreach. To date, $8,685 has been raised.
Outreach completed by staff:
In November, Museum Director Fortini was a guest speaker to the third,
fourth, and fifth grade Talented and Gifted classes and discussed how to
do profession research.
Professional Development completed by staff:

Museum Director Fortini completed a “Performance Management” class
offered by the Town through Mountain States Employer Council in
October.

Community Services Memo
To: Community Development / Community Services Committee
Town Administrator Lancaster
From: Teri Salerno, Visitor Services Manager
Date: January 26, 2017
RE: Revise Visitor Services Retail Policy
Objective:
The objective of this request is to be able to sell Town logo items and Town centennial
logo items at the Visitor Center. The most immediate objective is to be allowed to sell
Town centennial logo item(s) to help raise funds in support of the Knoll-Willows Open
Space legacy project.
The intention of this requested change is to sell small, souvenir-type items. The space
in the Visitor Center is not conducive to a large retail space. Small sample items would
be displayed on the retail wall, and guests would go to the cash register to request the
item(s) they wish to purchase. This process eliminates concern over merchandise being
stolen because all items for sale would be kept behind the front counter and would
require staff assistance to purchase.
Present Situation:
The current retail policy does not include Town logo items; therefore, Town centennial
logo items to support the Knoll-Willows project cannot be sold at the Visitor Center.
Guests frequently ask where they can purchase Town logo items and these items are
not available for purchase anywhere in town. Our experience tells us that there is a
good market for these items and the Visitor Center is a prime location to sell them.
Proposal:
Guests will appreciate having small Town logo items available to purchase at the Visitor
Center. The Resale Purchases account incudes funds that would allow the purchase of
some small, centennial logo items to sell this year, such as: stickers, pins, key chains,
patches, magnets and / or similar-type, small items.
Advantages:
Help raise funds for the Knoll-Willows legacy project by selling Town centennial
logo items;
Support knowledge of the Town centennial by providing small, centennial logo
items for purchase;
Guests request Town logo items to purchase and these items are not available to
purchase anywhere in town;
13
Sale of Town logo items will provide a new source of revenue for the Visitor
Center; and
With no entity selling Town logo items, local businesses would not see this as
competition since the Town logo is owned by the Town and not sold to others to
use.
Disadvantages:
Negatives include:
Town centennial logo items will be available to purchase at some stores in town.
Retailers may not want competition from the Visitor Center selling similar items;
however, not all guests intend to shop downtown and they will appreciate the
convenience of being able to purchase some small items at the Visitor Center.
No negatives have been identified with selling regular Town logo items since the
logo is owned by the Town and under the Town’s directive.
Action Recommended:
I recommend that the Town Board approve a change to the Visitor Services retail policy
that will allow the sale of Town logo items at the Visitor Center.
Budget:
Budget account number: 101-2600-426.29.20; fund name: Resale Purchases
Level of Public Interest
The level of public interest is high; over the years, Visitor Services staff and volunteers
have received requests from guests to purchase Town logo items. With Town logo
items not available to purchase anywhere in Estes Park, the Visitor Center could
uniquely provide the opportunity to purchase these items to guests.
Recommended Motion:
I recommend to the Town Board that the Visitor Services retail policy be amended to
include the sale of Town logo items and for this request to be included as an Action Item
at the February 14 Town Board meeting.
Attachments:
Amended Visitor Services Retail Policy, with addition of Town Logo items.

To establish a policy that limits both scope and purpose of the sale of retail merchandise
and the display of items at the Town of Estes Park Visitor Center
2. POLICY
It is the policy of the Town Board of Trustees to allow the sale of specific items outlined
within this policy and to allow displays at the Visitor Center for the convenience of the
visiting guest enhancing their experience when using the Town’s Visitor Center. The
primary function of the Visitor Center is to provide assistance and direct visiting guests to
lodging establishments, retail shops, restaurants and other destination locations within
Estes Park. Understanding the importance of local commerce it is neither the intent nor
the desire of the Town Board to have its Visitor Center compete with local retail business.
The sale of retail merchandise and the display of items at the Visitor Center are intended
to serve as a convenience to the guest while creating that environment synonymous with
being a “premier resort community”.
3. PROCEDURE
a.Allowable Sales: Those items allowed for sale within the Town’s Visitor Center are:
1. Post cards;
2.Calendars;
3. Town logo items;
4. Items produced by the Rocky Mountain Conservancy a 501 (C) 3 organization;

Museum) a 501 (C) 3 organization;
6. DVDs featuring the scenic beauty and diversity of the Estes Park area or that
of the Rocky Mountain National Park, which have been shot, produced,
manufactured or otherwise created by local area artists / residents which are
of a quality deemed professional in nature.
Other items allowed for sale at the Town’s Visitor Center will be the sale of tickets
and merchandise in support of local fundraising events that support the Estes Park
community.

In past years, Ambassadors have been scheduled to work only on Saturdays and
Sundays during the fourth quarter. In 2016, Ambassadors worked a new Fall
schedule that included daily help at the front counter through the third week in
October. Staff plans to continue the new fall schedule for Ambassadors in 2017
and beyond.
Visitor Services staff greatly appreciates the support of our volunteer
Ambassadors and their willingness to assist by filling the new Fall Schedule in

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT Staff Report
To: Members, Community Development / Community Services Committee
Frank Lancaster, Town Administrator
From: Randy Hunt, Community Development Director
Date: January 26, 2017
RE: Ord. #xx-16: Amendment to Estes Park Municipal Code: §12.16.010
(Street Names – Map generally), to address regulations regarding
display, installation and maintenance of official street-name signs in
the Town of Estes Park.
Objective:
The objective of this proposed code amendment is to revise the Estes Park Municipal
Code (EPMC) to appropriately include regulations regarding display, installation and
maintenance of official street-name signs in the Town of Estes Park.
Proposal:
Amend EPMC Section 12.16.010 as stated in Exhibit A, attached.
Discussion:
Recently, Town staff became aware that our Municipal Code provisions
governing street-name signs are somewhat unclear concerning display of
“unofficial” street-name signs. These are signs installed by private parties for
their own purposes – e.g., to “name” a private driveway after a person – without
going through any formal public review and approval process.
Oftentimes, those installing such signs are doing so for benign purposes. Even
with good intentions, however, installing these signs can result in confusion.
The most notable concern for staff is that signs of this type do not show up in the
911 emergency dispatch system, nor do they appear on other maps or
addressing records used for public safety and emergency response. This
discrepancy is at least confusing, and could potentially result in a critical
response delay.
For example, if someone calls 911 in an emergency and tells Dispatch, “I’m on
_____ Street, right next to the street sign” – and if Dispatch has no knowledge of
that sign or that street name – the consequences could quickly become severe.
Ordinary bewilderment (“why isn’t this road on my GPS?”) may also be reduced
by this amendment.
27
Ordinance No. xx-17
Community Development / Community
Services Committee: January 26, 2017
Although current language in EPMC §12.16.010 can be interpreted to cover
lookalike-sign situations, an amendment would bring further clarity. Only street
names on the Town’s official "Street and Address Map”, which serves as an
important element in the Dispatch system and other databases, would be allowed
on official-looking street signs. By not allowing lookalike signs in places where
the public and responders would get confused by them, naming and addressing
remains consistent and reliable.
The amendment also includes reference design standards, so all parties know
what sign styles should be installed or avoided. Included in this packet is the
design cut-sheet from the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices for Streets
and Highways (MUTCD), which has been in use by the Town for years.
Signs whose design would not likely be confused with official signs could still be
posted, as long as the Town’s Sign Code does not otherwise restrict it. For
example, someone who wanted to call their driveway “Blackberry Way” and
illustrate it with a large picture of a harpsichord would be free to do so, provided
they got a sign permit. This type of move seems unlikely to cause confusion.
Town staff will be happy to work with citizens who wish to use signs for benign
purposes. Our goal is to allow for individual expressions like these without
compromising fundamental safety matters.
Current Code does not distinguish between public-street signs and private-street
signs. Both now have the same type of official signs, and both should always be
in the Street and Address Map and database for 911, as long as they have been
approved as “true” streets and aren’t just driveways, private accesses, etc.
Although this amendment has no effect either way on different official signs for
public vs. private streets, staff suggests this is an area that may need attention in
future Code revisions.
For background, Community Development Policy No. 421 (Addressing and
Street Naming) is attached. This proposed amendment would not change
anything in the Policy, or vice-versa; however, the context may be of interest.
Staff Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law:
Estes Park Municipal Code §1.04.110 (Amendments):
“Any additions or amendments to this Code shall be adopted as ordinances
under applicable provisions of the state law, and when passed in such form as to
indicate the intention to make the same a part hereof, shall be deemed to be
incorporated in this Code so that reference to it as the ‘Municipal Code of the
28
Ordinance No. xx-17
Community Development / Community
Services Committee: January 26, 2017
Town of Estes Park’ shall be understood as including such additions or
amendments.”
Staff Finding – Findings of Fact:
The amendment is needed to avoid problems arising from display of street-name signs
that are not authorized by the Town and that could result in confusion and potentially
misdirection or delayed response by public-safety and emergency-services providers,
as well as those needing such services.
Staff Finding - Conclusions of Law:
The amendment complies with the procedural requirements in the EPMC subsection as
quoted, and with Colorado state law for amendments to municipal code.
Advantages:
Complies with EPMC Section §1.01.110 (Amendments).
The amendment standardizes requirements for how, when and where official street-
name signs are to be displayed in Town. It will help minimize occurrences in which
“unofficial” street-name signs are displayed. The change will help citizens who need
to know what streets they are on or near, and emergency responders and those
needing emergency services.
Disadvantages:
Some administrative and enforcement cost associated with making sure signs in
conflict are removed and new signs are not installed contrary to the Code
amendment.
Action Recommended:
Review the amendment for compliance with Estes Park Municipal Code (EPMC)
§1.01.110 (Amendments) and forward a recommendation the Estes Park Town Board of
Trustees for a final decision to approve, deny, or approve with changes.
Level of Public Interest:
