funding for Housing Authority, Park-n-Ride Express Shuttle between Event
Center, complete radio conversion from VHF to 800 Mhz for Streets, Community
Services Grant for EVICS, additional footing material for Event Complex arena,
and increase advertising/promotional budget, If all items were included the
ending fund balance would be estimated at 23% for 2017.
Board discussion followed and has been summarized: questioned if the 5% sales
tax growth was reasonable considering Hwy 34 would be closed for a portion of
the year; how often sales tax revenue would be reviewed to potentially add
additional items; the extension of the shuttle service could be decided as late as
April 2017; patching the parking lots would extend the life of the lots and the
Board consensus was to add the item to the budget bringing the ending fund
balance down to 22%; and the Board consensus was to add funds to provide a
static video recording of the Board study session meetings to be rebroadcasted
in lieu of providing live streaming of the meetings.
Trustee Nelson commented the process of ranking items did not work for him
because it did not provide the opportunity to have a philosophical discussion and
identify priorities. He stated the proposed fund balance would be conservative.
Finance Director Hudson stated staff would add the items proposed by the Board
and present the final budget at the December 13, 2016 meeting for the Board’s
consideration and adoption. A revised detail summary would be submitted for
the Board’s review.
Maria Cruz/Town and Veronica Pacheco/citizen thanked EVICS for the
assistance they provided her in becoming a childcare provided in Estes Park.
She also thanked the Board for the support the Town has provided to EVICS and
the support to the families of Estes Park.
Art Messal/Town citizen commented additional information should be made
available for the citizen on the budget process and proposed changes during the
process. He requested the Town not fund the EDC as it is a private venture with
no accountability to the public. The organization should be funded by the
businesses of the town.
Michelle Hiland/Town citizen questioned why the Town pays for advertising for
the Event Center and commented Visit Estes Park/Local Marketing District
should be funding the advertising. She questioned the funding to the EDC and
stated perhaps the Town does not need to be a keystone donor.
It was moved and seconded (Holcomb/Martchink)to continue the public
hearing to the December 13, 2016 Town Board meeting,and it passed
unanimously.
2.RESOLUTION #21-16 AUTHORIZING THE TOWN TO FILE IN WATER
COURT AN APPLICATION FOR AN AUGMENTATION PLAN FOR THE
SCOTT PONDS PROJECT.Attorney White stated the Resolution would
identify the Town’s intent to appropriate the new water right and exchange; and
authorize the filing of an Application for Water Right, Change of Water Rights,
and Plan for Augmentation of the Town of Estes Park for the Carriage Hills
Ponds 1 and 2 (Scott Ponds). This action would allow the Town to fill and
maintain the water level in the reconstructed ponds and dam system destroyed
during the 2013 flood. The application includes four components: changing a
portion of the Pond 2 water right into Pond 1; adding a new enlargement water
right for the additional capacity of Pond 1; a plan for augmentation to replace
evaporation and periodic refill with Windy Gap water or wastewater; and an
exchange of the Windy Gap water or wastewater up to the ponds. The end
result would be to have the old rights for the ponds, which total 7.26 acre feet,
redistributed to fully cover Pond 2 and cover Pond 1 to the extent of the right,
add a new water right for the additional capacity of Pond 1, and to use the plan
for augmentation and the exchange to keep the ponds continuously full. TheDRAFTo o

unanimously.
3.ORDINANCE #23-16 EXTENDING INTERIM FLOODPLAIN REGULATIONS.
Director Hunt stated the proposed Ordinance would continue the temporary
building requirements for development on lots adjacent to drainages
established in Ordinance 13-13. The Ordinance would allow permanent
construction in areas affected by the 2013 flood, while taking appropriate
measures to reasonably protect lives and properties from flooding and minimize
potential non-compliance with FEMA regulations. The Ordinance would be
effective immediately and in force through May 31, 2017. Attorney White read
the Ordinance into the record. It was moved and seconded (Norris/Holcomb)
to approve Ordinance 23-16, and it passed unanimously.

reappointment of Tom Dority, Kimberly Campbell, Holly Moore, Ginny
McFarland, Sue Doylen, Ann Finley, Faith Zimmerman, Greg Rosener,
Cydney Springer and Ron Wilcocks to the Downtown Plan Steering
Committee, effective upon approval and continuing through December 31,
2017,and it passed unanimously.
5.LOCAL MARKETING DISTRICT BOARD APPOINTMENT.Town Clerk
Williamson stated the position being filled on the Board was held by Scott
Webermeier who has served two four-year terms on the committee, and
therefore, term limited. The position was advertised and five applications were
received. Interviews were conducted by Trustees Martchink and Walker with
LMD member Webermeier attending. The Committee recommended Charley
Dickey for a four-year term beginning January 1, 2017 through December 31,
2020. Trustee Martchink thanked the applicants for their interest and would
encourage them to reapply as the Town has an appointment to the Board each
year.
Art Messal/Town citizen questioned the current Board and the appointment
process utilized by the Town Board. He stated appointments to the LMD
should have experience with marketing and have the ability to hold the staff
accountable. The LMD should serve the Town and not themselves.
Adam Shake/Local Marketing District Board member stated the Board supports
the appointment of Charley Dickey.
It was moved and seconded (Holcomb/Martchink)to approve the
appointment Charley Dickey to the Local Marketing District Board for a 4-
year term beginning January 1, 2017 expiring on December 31, 2020,and it
passed unanimously.
6.CONFERENCE CENTER CONCESSION AGREEMENT WITH DNC PARKS &
RESORTS AT ROCKY MOUNTAIN PARK INN, INC.Attorney White
presented the concession agreement with the company purchasing the Rocky
Mountain Park Inn in November 2016. The Town entered into a ground lease
in 1989 to allow the construction and operation of the Estes Park Conference
Center. Following construction of the Conference Center, the Town entered
into the Service Agreement and the Food and Beverage Concession
Agreement with the property owner. Pursuant to these agreements, the then
Holiday Inn and now Rocky Mountain Park Inn, was responsible for providing

Conference Center. The Town was required to provide marketing services for
the Conference Center. Those agreements have been renewed over the years
with the last renewal being effective January 1, 2011. The purchaser known in
the concession agreement as Rocky, has requested the Town enter into a new
agreement to combine the current service and food and beverage agreements,
which would be substantially the same as the current agreements. Rocky has
indicated that following the purchase of the Rocky Mountain Inn property, it
would make considerable upgrades to the property and any capital
improvements to the Conference Center would be charged against the ground
lease not to exceed the limits of the lease annually. After further discussion, it
was moved and seconded (Koenig/Holcomb)to approve the Conference
Center Concession Agreement between the Town of Estes Park and DNC
Parks & Resorts at Rocky Mountain Park Inn, Inc., and it passed
unanimously.
4. REQUEST TO ENTER EXECUTIVE SESSION:

on specific legal questions per Section 24-6-402(4)(b), C.R.S., ballot , and it
passed unanimously.
Whereupon Mayor Jirsa adjourned the meeting at 8:25 p.m. to enter into Executive
Session.
Mayor Jirsa reconvened the meeting to open session at 8:48 p.m.
ACTION ITEM:
DETERMINE POSITION ON BALLOT ISSUE 1A SALES TAX OVERAGE.
Attorney White stated the TABOR amendment of 1992 requires a taxing entity
proposing a tax must estimate the taxes to be collected in the first full year of collection
and further stated any tax revenues collected in excess must be refunded. The tax
exceeded the estimated revenues of $2 million established in the TABOR notice by
$418,000 and did not exceed the spending limits identified in the notice. The Board
must decide to either return the excess funds or hold an election to request the Town
retain the funds; however, the election can only occur at a regular Municipal Election or
a Coordinated Election in November.
It was moved and seconded (Walker/Holcomb) to return the $418,000 overage by
zeroing out the property taxes and applying the remainder as a credit to the Light
and Power utility customers, and it passed unanimously.
Whereupon Mayor Jirsa adjourned the meeting at 8:52 p.m.

Discussion of Document Management System.
Town Clerk Williamson provided an overview of implementing a Town wide document
management system in 2017. Jen Harris/ Peak Performance was available by
conference call to provide input and answer any questions. Town Clerk Williamson
provided highlights on the process, proposed software, vendor, benefits, and Jen Harris
provided a quick demo highlighting workflow. She elaborated on the importance of
implementing a system including; current volume of documents, space needs,
accessibility of documents, compliance with record retention schedules, and enhanced
transparency. The Town Board adopted a 2016 Strategic Plan, leading to Board
approved funding to complete a needs assessment in 2016 and approval to hire a
consultant, Simplicity Organizing Services. The Town conducted a survey of other
municipalities to identify best practices, and an employee survey which provided input
on the need for a standard method for intake and filing, version control, eliminate paper
files & duplicate files, records retention, improved citizen access, offsite access, method
to track documents, fillable forms, collaboration among departments, and improved
work flow efficiencies. The Town established a document management team including
one member from every department to draft processes, determine software needs and
features, and complete a document inventory which concluded the Town has
approximately 2 million electronic files and an unknown amount of paper files. An RFP
was created which generated 11 responses from vendors using 6 different systems.
Town Clerk Williamson provided in her budget plan for 2017 to the Town Board the full
amount for a document management system and later found that a phased plan would
be more effective. Evaluation of the RFP’s were based on main criteria to include;
technical response, thoroughness of the proposal, implementation approach,
experience/references, cost, maintenance, and support. Laserfiche Rio was selected as
the document management platform that would meet the Town’s current and future
needs. Town Clerk Williamson elaborated on the benefits the platform offers with major
components being workflow, reduced staff time and storage space, reclaiming office
space, enhanced document security, records retention, and collaboration between staff.
Manager Fraundorf added insight on the routine process of maintaining server space
that the IT division handles, stating there is an abundance of duplicate documents on
the Town servers. Town Clerk Williamson stated that a document management system
would prevent duplicates from occurring, accidental deletion, unintentional alterations or
moving of documents, while allowing collaboration between departments and a check in
and out system with a history of changes. Assistant Town Administrator Machalek
added a system in place would help the Town meet CIRSA requirements and would DRAFTTT

the Laserfiche system functionality and a sample of forms.
Trustee questions were heard and are summarized: Mayor Pro Tem Koenig questioned
the level of customer satisfaction with the evolution of the software; Trustee Holcomb
asked for an estimated completion timeframe for all phases, and questioned the
availability of increased demand for staff/addition of staff to complete the project;
Trustee Nelson asked if there are any unforeseen costs, which Town Clerk Williamson
stated there may be a need to add a staff member dedicated to records management.
TRUSTEE & ADMINISTRATOR COMMENTS & QUESTIONS.
Mayor Jirsa stated the Superintendent of Rock Mountain National Park has requested
she provide an update to the Board at the second meeting in January 2017.
Mayor Pro Tem Koenig initiated a conversation on Mayor Jirsa’s approach to fulfillment
of Policy 1.4., Mayor’s Responsibilities. She stated concern with recent comments the
Mayor has made at public meetings and gathering on how the Town should complete
items such as the Town Strategic Plan. The comments have come across as the
Board’s opinion rather than the Mayor’s. Other concerns were raised as to the Mayor’s
attendance, or lack thereof, at important Town functions, ribbon cuttings, etc. She
commented the Mayor took an oath to follow the policies of the Town.
Mayor Jirsa responded stating a number of the issues highlighted by Mayor Pro Tem
Koenig are misstated or untrue. He stated Policy 1.4 has not been formally interpreted
by the Board, and in his opinion he meets the intent of the policy.
Further discussion was heard among the Board and a consensus was reached to hold a
special Town Board Study Session facilitated by a third party to discuss the role of the
Mayor further and to review the policy.

Recommendation to the Town Board:
HDR Capital Project Engineering Expenditure Limit. Director Bergsten stated in
2013 the department issued an RFP for on-call engineering services. HDR was one of
three firms selected as responsive responsible bidders with market competitive rates. In
August of this year, the USDA Rural Development indicated grants and 40-year loans
would be available for drinking water capital projects. The USDA estimated the Town
had a four-year eligibility window as our population growth would disqualify us from
funding. Water has begun capital project scoping and engineering with HDR causing the
2016 expenditures to exceed $100,000 with the addition of these projects. No change to
the approved 2016 budget would be required. The Committee recommended
approval to the Town Board of HDR expenditures not to exceed $200,000, to be
included on the Consent Agenda at the November 22, 2016 Town Board meeting.
Reports
1. Verbal Updates and Committee Questions: Project Manager Swoboda reported
on FEMA projects and reimbursements and stated the last large project to be
completed include roads and trails. Town Administrator Lancaster reported on
the Town Board Meeting Tuesday, November 8, regarding the Tabor refund 10

issue, a $5.00 credit will be issued for every bill for every account.
PUBLIC WORKS
Reports
1. Town Hall Security Camera and Recording System Phase 1 – Manager
Landkamer stated that the Town staff identified several issues and inadequacies
in the existing camera system in Town Hall. The existing system in Town Hall is a
mix of cameras and technologies, which are failing, and in need of updating and
improvement. Public Works recommended that Inteconnex be awarded the
project. The preliminary budget for this project was set at $100,000 in 2016, with
$26,000 proposed for 2017. As quotes came in significantly below the target
budget, Public Works will negotiate the agreement, to maximize the initial
investment. Plans to add cameras to the Visitor Center and possibly the Transit
Facility Parking Structure in the near future would require the installment of
equipment that will adequately service this addition.
2. Verbal Updates and Committee Questions: Manager Ash provided updates on
the following projects:
Patch work has been completed around Red Tail Hawk and Devon Drive.
Dry Gulch project continues with small miscellaneous projects being
completed. Trustee Martchink questioned if creek restoration was to be
done and Manager Ash replied that clean-up will be done but cannot do
anything too impactful to that area.
Carriage Hills dams: final walk thru done with the state, a ribbon cutting
scheduled and the project completed on budget. Mayor Pro Tem Koenig
questioned the completion of the water rights. Manager Ash responded
with the Board approval on November 8, 2016, the application has been
filed and with scheduled completion spring 2017.
Storm Water Master Plan has begun and on schedule, to be completed by
September 2017.
Moraine Avenue bridgework has started and businesses being informed of
the project schedule.
Fall River Trail design to be completed by the end of this year.
Kelly Stallworth would present an update on the Street Improvement Plan
(STIP) to the Board at an upcoming study session.
Trustee Martchink requested an update on bank restoration at the Visitor Center.
Director Muhonen stated the construction start date or design has no commitment;
however, needs to be completed before the completion of the parking structure and high
water flow in May.
Director Muhonen provided an update on the following projects:
The School District requested Public Works assistance with patching the
school parking lots. The District would fund the project. Staff would assess
the request.
The Town Board would hold a special Town Board meeting on November
29 at the Event Center regarding the Loop Project.
Fish Creek trail repair and updates are available online.
Downtown pedestrian crossings require the signal to be pushed for
crossing the street as to not hold up traffic unnecessarily. The crossing at
Highways 34/36 has not changed.
Parking structure: a fiber optic line was discovered and not in the
easement and the foundation will need to be adjusted to accommodate
this discovery and now waiting on permits to continue. Trustee Koening
asked if within the structure if conduits are being integrated. Director

Chair Hull called the meeting to order at 1:30 p.m. There were approximately ten people in
attendance. Each Commissioner was introduced. Chair Hull explained the process for accepting public
comment at today’s meeting. The following minutes reflect the order of the agenda and not
necessarily the chronological sequence.
1.PUBLIC COMMENT
Fred Mares/town resident stated he served on the vacation rental task force, and there seemed
to be some misunderstandings about the goals of the task force. He stated the task force
administrator established two ground rules: (1) no discussion regarding enforcement; and (2) no
discussion regarding the allowance of nine or more occupants in vacation rentals. The task force
was to assume the County Commissioners and the Town Board wanted to approve occupancies of
nine, and they were tasked with determining any proposed code changes. Mr. Mares stated there
were very explicit directions as to what they could and could not discuss at the task force
meetings.
Dick Spielman/town resident was also a task force member. He stated the idea behind the task
force was to handle all of the discussion regarding possible code changes so the Planning
Commission would not continue to be bogged down with the issue. The task force
recommendations were to provide a starting place for the Planning Commissioners. Because of
the complexity of the issue, he suggested having members of the task force present and available
to provide clarification at any future study sessions (Planning Commission & Town Board)
regarding vacation rentals.
2.CONSENT AGENDA
A. Approval of minutes, September 20, 2016 Planning Commission meeting.
B. Continuation to the November meeting of the proposed adoption of the 2016 Estes Valley
Master Trails Plan as an element of the Estes Valley Comprehensive Plan.
It was moved and seconded (Murphree/White) to approve the consent agenda as presented and
the motion passed unanimously with two absent.

3.PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO THE ESTES VALLEY DEVELOPMENT CODE REGARDING LONG‐TERM
RENTAL OF ATTACHED ACCESSORY DWELLING UNITS (ADU)
Director Hunt reviewed the staff report. Previous meetings included discussions and concerns
about de facto rezoning, increasing density, and unintended consequences. The proposed
amendment would allow long‐term rental (30 days or more), under specified conditions, of
attached ADUs in the five single‐family zone districts as described in the Estes Valley Development
Code (EVDC). Currently, attached ADUs are allowed on qualified parcels and occupied by
members of the principal dwelling unit. Some of the current code would still apply; e.g. ADUs shall
not exceed 33% of the size of the habitable floor area of the principal dwelling, no short‐term
rentals would be allowed, no home occupations or change in off‐street parking requirements, and
a few other modest changes. A new mandatory registration process (no fees) would be handled
through the Town Clerk’s office. A specific timeline for registrations would apply.
Director Hunt stated the previous version of the proposed amendment had a sunset provision.
This sunset provision would provide for a date by which the amendment would expire and revert
back to the code prior to the amendment. The latest version extends the sunset date from
October 31, 2017 to December 31, 2017, which allows for process by the appropriate boards,
along with allowance for a full‐year lease for tenants. The sunset clause would allow for
registered and maintained ADUs that otherwise comply with code (size, etc). to be grandfathered
after the sunset date. The Town Clerk suggested a January through March annual registration
period.
Director Hunt stated enforcement of ADUs has been discussed many times. With the proposed
amendment, the enforcement aspect would be strengthened if we provide for the process as
described. With the sunset provision and grandfathering element, staff would have the ability to
confine their tasks. If the majority of ADU owners follow through with registration, the remaining
minority would present a narrower task list to address. Director Hunt stated if the proposed
amendment is adopted with the sunset clause, we would hopefully legitimize a sizeable number
of the existing ADUs in the Estes Valley. He did not anticipate many new residential ADUs
permitted through the building permit process, either through a remodel or new construction. He
stated lenders have more strict lending practices than in the past, and they regularly check for
zoning compliance prior to approving a loan. It would be difficult to obtain a loan if a sunset
clause is in effect. Director Hunt stated the Estes Park Housing Authority has identified a definite
housing need, and the ability to rent an ADU will solve a piece of that puzzle, though he did not
anticipate it having a large impact on the housing shortage. Director Hunt stated the
Commissioners and the public have expressed concerns about changes in the character of single‐
family neighborhoods if ADU rentals were allowed, and that is a valid concern. He stated he
would be remiss if staff offered a code amendment that would radically alter that balance. He did
not think the proposed amendment with the specific qualifiers would have that effect.

RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
Estes Valley Planning Commission 3
October 18, 2016
Board Room, Estes Park Town Hall
Commissioner Schneider requested clarification on the sunset provision, stating the sunset
provision would apply only to those that did not register their ADU, and all those that did register
would be grandfathered after the sunset provision expired (proposed date of December 31,
2017). Director Hunt confirmed the accuracy of Commissioner Schneider’s statement.
Public Comment
John Phipps/town resident stated ADUs would constitute a drastic change for the single‐family
zone districts, as it would change the character of family neighborhoods. A homeowner has a
right to rely on zoning regulations, especially when there has been no material change in the
character of a neighborhood, which he stated came from a Colorado Supreme Court case. He
stated there are other alternatives (Multi‐Family Residential, Accommodations, and Two‐Family
Residential zone districts), and questioned why single‐family zone districts were being considered.
He asked the Commissioners to envision what the zoning map would look like if all the single‐
family zone districts were removed, and wondered if Estes Park would be a resort community or
just a resort. He disagreed with the sunset provision, and the possibility of renewal at the time of
expiration. He asked if illegal ADUs became registered, would they be grandfathered at the end of
the sunset period? Does this mean if enough people violate an ordinance for long enough, they
would eventually be grandfathered if they registered? He had concerns about building codes,
proper utilities, parking, etc. Mr. Phipps did not think the effort would create enough long‐term
rentals to benefit the housing shortage. He was opposed to the long‐term rentals of ADUs.
Fred Mares/town resident has been following the history of ADUs since 2012. There seemed to be
a rush on this proposed amendment because of the highway closure, and now it seems to be
related more to workforce housing. He was concerned the Planning Commission was creating de
facto rezoning if they approved the amendment making long‐term rental of ADUs in residential
zone districts a use by right. He wondered why we were going through this process if it would not
have a large impact on workforce housing. He asked the following rhetorical questions, including
but not limited to: How many ADUs are there in town now? How many ADUs are outside the
Town limits? How large are the existing attached ADUs? Should ADU property owners be required
to pay commercial utility rates? What happens if the tenant loses their job? How many times can
and ADU be re‐rented without being considered short term? Who will be keeping the records? If
we aren’t doing this to facilitate workforce housing, why are we doing it at all? What does
removing the lot size and structure size restrictions have to do with rentability of an ADU? He
stated this was a risky code amendment, and wanted to know the ground rules. If this is
approved, he liked the permit system, stating it would be important to ensure staff had the ability
to implement the plan and track the results. He disagreed with property owners having the ability
to get a “free pass” if they participated in the “experiment.”
Dick Spielman/town resident agreed with Mr. Phipps and Mr. Mares. Concerning the proposed
sunset clause and the enforceability of the issue, he stated he saw no reason for property owners
to come forward and register their property if they had been successfully renting it (legally or
illegally) for many years.

RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
Estes Valley Planning Commission 4
October 18, 2016
Board Room, Estes Park Town Hall
Staff and Commission Discussion
None
It was moved and seconded (White/Hills) to recommend the Estes Park Town Board and Larimer
County Board of Commissioners disapprove the proposed text amendment, including the
proposed sunset clause to the Estes Valley Development Code, as presented in Exhibit A, finding
that it would constitute a rezoning of five residential zone districts. Density is at the heart of
zoning. This would double the density in those zone districts. Neither the Estes Valley
Development Code nor the Estes Valley Comprehensive Plan support this. The method of
drastically changing the zoning by changing the uses allowed rather than going through the
rezoning process does not constitute sound community planning. The motion to disapprove was
approved 5‐0 with two absent.
Town Attorney White was excused from the meeting.
4.PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO THE ESTES VALLEY DEVELOPMENT CODE REGARDING REMOVING
THE MINIMUM LOT SIZE REQUIREMENTS FOR MULTI‐FAMILY DEVELOPMENT IN THE RM‐MULTI‐
FAMILY RESIDENTIAL ZONE DISTRICT
Director Hunt reviewed the staff report. The concept was to remove the minimum lot size in the
RM–Multi‐Family Residential zone district for development or redevelopment of multi‐family
housing on multi‐family zoned lots. He explained the limitations of the existing code’s minimum
lot size would allow only seven or more housing units per lot, as well as single‐family or duplex
units. By removing the limit, three to six units could be constructed on any given RM‐zoned
property. Director Hunt stated the Estes Park Housing Authority’s Housing Needs Assessment
encouraged multi‐unit housing, and this amendment would provide for an option that could fill a
niche for development and redevelopment. In Table 4‐2, the 40,000 square foot lot size
requirement would be removed, while all other standards would still apply. Director Hunt stated
he did not think this was an intended barrier to development. He stated he thought the intention
of the minimum lot size may have been to encourage developers to combine lots for multi‐family
housing projects; however, instead it discouraged development and redevelopment. The
proposed amendment would remove a barrier, and potentially encourage
development/redevelopment.

October 18, 2016
Board Room, Estes Park Town Hall
It was moved and seconded (Schneider/Hills) to recommend approval of the proposed
amendment to the Estes Valley Development Code to the Town Board and Larimer County
Commissioners and the motion passed 5‐0 with two absent.
5.REPORTS
A. Director Hunt reported there will be a special study session for the Planning Commission
regarding vacation rentals on Tuesday, November 1, 2016, beginning at noon in the Town
Board Room. Vacation rentals will also be discussed at the study session prior to the regular
Planning Commission meeting on Tuesday, November 15, 2016. Direction received from the
Town Trustees and County Commissioners at the August 30, 2016 joint meeting was to draft
code language regarding vacation homes with occupancies of nine and above, with
regulations as recommended by the task force. Director Hunt stated there were some items
discussed at today’s study session where the task force had not reached consensus. Any
remaining issues can be worked through at the November 1st study session. Additionally, any
revisions that need to be done with the occupancies of eight and under could be addressed in
order to make the amendment as synchronized as possible.
B. Director Hunt reported on a revision to the Lazy B Ranch & Wranglers development plan that
was approved by the Town Board earlier this year. The Board of Adjustment did not approve a
variance request for the placement of the proposed loading area. He stated it was determined
the approved Development Plan could not be completed as proposed, but could be amended
to provide an appropriate location for the loading area. This will be an action item for
recommendation to the Town Board at the November Planning Commission meeting.
Commissioner Schneider requested answers to the Planning Commissioners’ questions
regarding the Temporary Use Permit from a previous Planning Commission meeting.
C. Director Hunt reported Planner Audem Gonzales was promoted to from Planner I to Planner
II, and staff is in the process of hiring a Planner I. Once that position is filled, we will be up to
full strength. Director Hunt stated one of his goals as director is to revise the EVDC to be
easier to administer, regulate, and enforce, and there is a balance to be reached in all of that.
Any changes proposed in the code will come before the Planning Commission.
D. Chair Hull asked the Commissioners for comments regarding the vote to recommend
disapproval of rental of ADUs. Comments included but were not limited to: Commissioners
Hills and White objected, stating it would result in zoning changes in five zoning districts. Chair
Hull commented ADUs make sense if they are for family. Commissioner Schneider was
concerned about how you would collect data without a registration process, and was
supportive of a definite sunset provision, but did not agree with the grandfathering aspect.
When asked if there were other ways to move forward with ADUs, Director Hunt stated the
ability to have ADUs in specific zone districts is an option, though he has not seen it done
across all districts. There is a possibility to adopt a density standard. He has not worked in a
community where rental regulation has been a common practice. Commissioner Hills stated
she was not against ADUs, but wanted to see them contained to the proper zone districts.
Commissioner White agreed, stating Accommodations or multi‐family zone districts would be
better suited for ADUs. There must be other communities that have made this work.

GENERAL BUSINESS
It was moved and seconded (Papineau/Boles) to approve the September meeting
minutes with corrections and the motion passed unanimously.
AIPP SUGGESTION
Barbara Jo Limmiatis, Town of Estes Park IT Support Specialist, attended the meeting
to open a discussion about utilizing the Town Hall main corridors as a method to display
local art. She indicated there are primary hallways within Town Hall that have available
space and the items currently displayed are not hung consistently.
21
Limmiatis stated that the art could have an established period of time to hang (i.e. 3
months, 6 months, etc.) before it’s time to change it out for another local artist. During
the piece’s display term, there could be some type of label showing additional
information about the piece, or the artist, as well as a price in the event the art is for
sale.
It would be responsibility of the PAB to solicit, track and approve the individual art
displays, as well as coordinate the art hangings. Barbara Jo committed to being a
resource for this initiative.
Chair Lebeau would be attending the next Arts District Meeting and would discuss this
idea with them. Member Rustin stated that he would send an email to Lars Sage (not in
attendance) to bring him up to speed.
Member Boles made a motion to approve this idea and Chair Lebeau seconded the
motion. All were in favor.
AIPP: Blake Babbit Eagle Scout Proposal
Blake Babbit, studen, was tasked with conceiving his plan for his final Scout project
which is due in 2017. Having an art background, Blake met with Town Administrator,
Frank Lancaster, to see if there was something he could provide the community as part
of his project. Frank suggested the possibility of painting one of the electrical boxes in
town and encouraged him to reach out to Joe Lockhart of the Town of Estes Park –
Light & Power Dept., to discuss further.
Blake brought drawings and other examples of work for the PAB to review during his
presentation. He did not, however, have specific examples of what would be done on all
sides. The PAB loved the idea of covering a utility box with art, but requested more
specific information on what he plans to paint.
Additional discussion took place outlining the needs of the product being used to create
the art and the maintenance plan. SMITH SIGNS, of Smith Signs, verified that the type
of paint being used is outdoor sign paint, which is enamel-based. He stated that the
paint is extremely durable and is believed to have a longer life (8-10 years) than the
wraps used on some of the utility boxes in Fort Collins (3-5 years). Chair Lebeau will
confirm the type of topcoat needed for this environment.
22
Member Boles brought up the idea proposed earlier in the year by Assistant Town
Administrator, Travis Machalek, outlining the possibility of having local artists enter a
contest to select the art displayed on the wraps for art displays on utility boxes in Estes
Park. Boles suggested Blake get in touch with ATA Machalek to coordinate and get any
additional information needed.
Member Bangs made a motion to approve the concept, stating that the specific
drawings would be needed prior to presenting to the Town Board. Member Rustin
seconded the motion. All were in favor.
Chair Lebeau wanted to ensure it’s clear that the darker colors are not desirable as they
generate heat on the utility boxes. She also stated that any large open spaces within the
art invite vandalism so it would be better to include more details.
PARKS DIVISION UPDATE:
Mike Donnachie brought Parks Division Updates in Brian Berg’s absence.
The Parks Division was nearing completion of irrigation blow-outs in preparation
of the colder season
The Parks Division would continue to work towards securing the bear-proof
containers to the ground
In the process of replacing the old, worn-out park benches with the newly
purchased green metal benches, there were still 22 to install at the west end of
Elkhorn
o Member Papineau inquired about what the plans are for the old benches.
Mike stated that those replaced last year were taken to auction. Papineau
asked whether any could be repurposed and used at Scott Ponds. Mike
indicated that it has been attempted in the past, but required much more
effort than anticipated.
All annuals had been unearthed for the season
Phase 1 of the Tunnel Tile Project was completed
Tunnel Lights Project was still to come
Tree Pruning along the streets had been taking place over the previous month
and would continue.
Irrigation to the water fountains / fountains / turf areas had now been turned off
for the winter.
23
The Parks Division would begin the discussion regarding locations for a new
veteran’s memorial.
OTHER BUSINESS
Thoughts were brought forward regarding the combining of the Mountain Festival with
the Centennial Celebration in 2017. The PAB would continue looking for a local non-
profit to participate in the events in addition to regular attendees. The current thoughts
would reserve Friday as an educational day and Saturday to be the celebration day –
food trucks, beer vendors, etc. resembling the Pumpkins & Pilsners Festival.
Member Papineau stressed the importance of Visit Estes Park being informed of the
anticipated number of attendees.
On Friday. October 21st, the PAB met at the Events Center Executive Board Room.
Members like this location due to ease of access. Megan Van Hoozer will follow-up with
the Events Center to check the possibility of booking more of our meetings at this
location.
Member Rustin would not be in physical attendance until the first part of May 2017.
Rustin confirmed that he would be available via conference call for meetings.
With no other business to discuss, Chair Lebeau adjourned the meeting at 11:59 a.m.

RE: Renewal License – Bowl Fort Collins, LLC dba Chippers Lanes Estes Park
Center, 555 S. St. Vrain Avenue, Tavern Liquor License
Objective:
Discussion of liquor law violations that occurred at Chippers Lanes Estes Park Center
on August 24, 2015 and October 14, 2016.
Present Situation:
At a recent meeting the Board requested liquor renewals be brought forward for any
licensed establishment that has failed back-to-back compliance checks.
On August 24, 2015 and October 14, 2016, an alcohol sales compliance check was
conducted by the State’s Liquor Enforcement Division. During these compliance check,
employees of Chippers Lanes sold/served an alcohol beverage to an underage person.
The employees failed to request identification during each of the compliance checks
from the individual and proceeded to serve the underage customer.
The Tavern Liquor License held by Bowl Fort Collins, LLC was originally issued in
December 2009. The establishment has two previous Sale to Minor violations,
occurring in January 2011 and July 2013. A fine in lieu of suspension was imposed for
the 2011 violation; a 10-day active suspension was served for the 2013 violation; and a
fine in lieu of suspension was imposed for the 2015 violation.
The Liquor Enforcement Division (LED) of the Colorado Department of Revenue will be
handling the administrative process related to this violation. The penalty for this type of
violation, if it is considered a 1st offense is up to a 15-day suspension, or entering into a
stipulation and agreement allowing for the payment of a fine in lieu of an actual
suspension with a portion of the suspension time held in abeyance for a period of time,
typically one year from the date of the agreement. If further violations occur within a
year of the date of the agreement, the licensee will serve all or any days of the
suspension held in abeyance.
The licensee has provided the Town Clerk with a copy of the establishment’s alcohol
sales policy in the past; however, they have not provided a current listing of permanent
employees that have been T.I.P.S. trained as of the date of this memo. They have
25
submitted all necessary paperwork and fees for the liquor license renewal. The liquor
license expires on December 1, 2016.
Proposal:
The LED is administering the violation, therefore, no administrative action will be taken
by the Town. The Board must consider the renewal of the license.
Advantages:
Approval of the liquor license renewal would allow the licensee to continue operating the
liquor-licensed establishment. The State will determine the penalty to be imposed for
the violation and ensure that the penalty is served.
Disadvantages:
To deny the renewal of the liquor license would disrupt the alcohol service to patrons of
the liquor-licensed establishment.
Action Recommended:
Receive direction from the Town Board related to the renewal of the Tavern liquor
license held by Bowl Fort Collins, LLC dba Chippers Lanes Estes Park Center. The
Board has the option to move to approve or deny the renewal of the license.
Budget:
The annual renewal fee paid to the Town of Estes Park for a Tavern liquor license is
$869.
Level of Public Interest
Medium to High – Serving alcohol to minors and non-compliance with Colorado State
Liquor Laws are concerns for the community.
Sample Motion:
I move to approve/deny the renewal of the Tavern Liquor License held by Bowl Fort
Collins, LLC dba Chippers Lanes Estes Park Center.

RE: First Supplemental Map of Fall River Village Condominiums, Lot 8
and all easements of record that benefit Lot 8, Fall River Village
Final P.U.D.; 511 W. Elkhorn Avenue
Fall River Village, LLC, Owners
Objective:
Review of a Supplemental Condominium Map application for compliance with the Estes
Valley Development Code and Comprehensive Plan in order to render a decision on the
application.
Present Situation:
The Condominium Subdivision, which is completely built out, was originally platted and
approved in 2004 with the intent that housing would be developed to accommodate a
multi-family community in accordance with the Fall River Village Planned Unit
Development (P.U.D.). The site is currently zoned (CO) Commercial Outlying District,
with a P.U.D. Overlay. The Fall River Village Condominiums Subdivision is located at
the intersection of Filbey Court and West Elkhorn Avenue, with direct access provided
from the Elkhorn Avenue right-of-way. The subject site borders vacant property along
the north (approved for single family uses in the Fall River Village P.U.D.), public open
space and Performance Park to the east, commercial and accommodations (Murphy’s
River Lodge) uses to the south, and multi-family uses to the west.
Proposal:
The Applicant requests approval for a Supplemental Condominium Map which would
allow for the multi-family units to be sold under separate ownership. Approval of this
map will finalize a total of fifty six (56) units with one unit (Unit 170) being reserved as
community space, and will create a total of sixty four (64) residential units available for
sale.
27
Advantages:
1.Compliance with standards and criteria set forth in Chapter 10, “Subdivision
Standards,” and all other applicable provisions of the Estes Valley Development
Code.
2.Conformance with the housing policies of the Estes Valley Comprehensive Plan by
promoting a balance of housing opportunities within the community.
3.With common land surrounding the buildings under single ownership of the HOA,
maintenance of such land is expected to be of higher quality. This includes, but is
not limited to, stormwater facilities, parking lots, private streets, open space and
areas protected by Limits of Disturbance.
Disadvantages:
None.
Action Recommended:
The Community Development Department recommends approval of the Supplemental
Condominium Map application with following condition:
1.Prior to recordation, a certificate by an attorney duly licensed to practice law in the
State that the condominium association, condominium map and declaration comply
with the Colorado Common Interest Ownership Act (§38-33.3-101 et seq., C.R.S.)
shall be submitted to the Community Development Department.
Budget:
Not applicable.
Level of Public Interest:
The level of public interest is low regarding the Supplemental Condominium Map as no
public comments were submitted to the Community Development Department.
Enclosures:

RE: Ordinance #24-16 Amending Estes Valley Development Code Section 4.3,
Table 4-2, to Remove the Minimum Lot Size Requirement for Multi-Family
Residential (RM) Zone District, and Section 7.1.A.2.b to Remove Reference
to the RM Minimum Lot Size Requirement.
Objective:
The objective of this proposed text amendment is to remove the 40,000 square-foot
minimum lot size requirement for development of multi-family housing on multi-family
zoned lots, thereby removing a regulatory barrier to multi-family housing development.
Note: Multifamily development is development of residential dwellings in
buildings containing three or more units.
The proposed amendment would not affect minimum lot size for single-family or two-
family (duplex) development in the RM District. It also would not change the density
standard in RM District, which remains 5,400 square feet of lot area per each unit
(actual square footage required per unit may be lower due to the density rounding code
amendment adopted earlier this year).
Present Situation:
During an Aug. 9, 2016 Town Board Study Session Housing Needs and Response
discussion, “the Board consensus was to move forward with reviewing barriers to
development such as those outlined by staff." Staff views minimum lot size requirement
in the RM zoning district as a barrier to some types of multi-family housing development
and has drafted this proposed code amendment to remove that barrier. Staff
recommends regulating multi-family development density by units per area, not
minimum lot size. Our current minimum parent parcel size of 40,000 square feet is an
old-fashioned standard that serves no useful purpose. Density (5,400 square feet per
unit in the RM district) remains a viable standard and is a true measure of capacity.
For lots that meet the “magic” 40,000 sq. ft. size, multi-family development can be built
with 5,400 square feet of land area per unit. An RM lot containing 39,999 sq. ft. can
developed with only two units, yet an RM lot containing just one square foot more land
Community Development
Memo
41
can be developed with eight units. This sounds pretty silly, except that it has real and
problematic consequences for Estes Valley.
The minimum lot size requirement inhibits efficient use of RM-zoned land. The most
visible effect is to prohibit developments of between three and seven units. The three-
to-seven-unit housing niche is an under-represented segment on the local housing
market. Staff has been contacted numerous times in recent years by developers who
wished to propose such developments, only to find that the 40,000 square-foot
minimum does not allow it.
This proposed code amendment, in concert with a code amendment earlier this year to
round fractional densities upward, would allow a triplex to be built on just over 13,500
square feet of land. This is in line with many communities’ development densities.
Elimination of minimum lot size and regulating only units per acre is a technique
suggested by the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) in their
guide, Making Housing Affordable: Breaking Down Regulatory Barriers (1994).
Minimum lot size is recognized as a barrier to affordable housing, including workforce
housing.
Staff propose retaining minimum lot size requirements for single-family and duplex
development in the RM zoning district at this time, to incentivize multi-family
development, over single-family and duplex development in the RM District. It is rather
probably that we will suggest changes in these figures as well. Meanwhile, however,
this amendment will provide a path forward for small multi-family developments.
Action Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval of Ordinance No. 24-16 as drafted.
The Planning Commission reviewed this proposed amendment on October 18 and
recommended approval by a vote of 7 in favor, none opposed, and none absent or
recused.
This amendment requires approval by the Town Board and the Board of County
Commissioners to become effective. County consideration is anticipated on Dec. 12,
2016.
Level of Public Interest:
Low.

I move to approve Ordinance No. 24-16, based on findings of fact and conclusions of
law.

RE: Verizon Land Lease Agreement - Amendment
Objective:
Approve the amended lease agreement between the Town of Estes Park and Verizon,
to grant them the ability to install, and operate, cell phone communication equipment
and antenna in the Moraine/Weist parking lot.
Present Situation:
Verizon’s temporary lease on another building is expiring and they have been working
with the Town of Estes Park to find a site downtown that is on a Town owned property
or building. The current site was identified as a potential site when a solution for a cell
phone antenna site on the roof of Town Hall could not be accomplished. Through the
review process, Town of Estes Park Light & Power, requested that the proposed
construction plans show that an easement be dedicated through the lot to a transformer
in the northwest corner of the lot, as described in Exhibit C.
Proposal:
This lease agreement will not generate expense, but will generate $18,000 per year in
revenue from Verizon. The location of the cell phone communications antenna will
greatly improve service for Town of Estes Park visitors and businesses particularly in
the downtown area.
Advantages:
•Improved cell phone service in the downtown area for visitors and businesses.
•Generate revenue that could be used for maintenance of Town owned facilities.
Disadvantages:
•Visual impact of a cell phone tower in the downtown area, however, there are
currently cell phone antennas on top of privately owned buildings in the
downtown area.
Action Recommended:
Public Works recommends that the Town Board of Trustees authorize the Mayor to sign
the lease agreement, and allow Verizon to proceed with the installation and operation of
the communications equipment as described in the land lease agreement, Exhibit A, 45
Exhibit B, and Exhibit C. Construction documents have been submitted to Town of
Estes Park Planning Department for review and approval.
Budget:
No budget necessary for this request. Staff coordination time and review by Town
Attorney White have been the only costs associated with this request.
Level of Public Interest
Moderate: There was some public comment during the review of this plan through the
Community Development process.
Sample Motion:
I move for the approval/denial of the proposed Verizon Land Lease Agreement as
presented.

Amendment”) is made and entered into as of the _______ day of ________________, 2016,
between the Town of Estes Park, Colorado, a municipal corporation, with a mailing address of
170 MacGregor Avenue, Estes Park, Colorado 80017 (“Lessor”), and Verizon Wireless (VAW)
LLC d/b/a Verizon Wireless, with its principal offices at One Verizon Way, Mail Stop 4AW100,
Basking Ridge, New Jersey 07920 (“Lessee”). Lessor and Lessee are referred to individually as
a “Party” and collectively, as the “Parties.”
RECITALS
A. Lessor and Lessee are parties to that certain Lease Agreement dated May 25, 2016
(the “Lease”), whereby Lessor leased to Lessee a portion of ground space for installation of
Lessee’s communications facility (“Lease Area”), together with easement rights for access and
utility purposes, on Lessor’s property, legally described on Exhibit A attached to this Second
Amendment (“Property”).
B. Pursuant to a requirement of the Public Works Department, the driveway in front
of the Lease Area was widened, such driveway also being the location of Lessee’s 12 foot-wide
access and utility easement. In order to accurately depict Lessee’s easement interests, the Parties
entered into a First Amendment to Land Lease Agreement, dated June 28, 2016 (“First
Amendment”). By this First Amendment, Exhibit B and Exhibit C of the Lease were replaced in
their entirety, with the replacement Exhibit B and Exhibit C setting forth the legal descriptions
and depictions of the Lessor’s property, the Lease Area, and Lessee’s easements (the Lease Area,
together with Lessee’s easements, being the “Premises”). The Lease, as amended by the First
Amendment, became the entire agreement of the Parties (“Agreement”).
C. Lessor and Lessee now desire to amend the Agreement to extend the length of
Lessee’s 10 foot-wide easement (“10-foot Easement”) to include two (2) utility poles located on
Landlord’s property, which Lessee will utilize for Lessee’s communications facility. Lessor and
Lessee further desire to set forth the complete descriptions for and depictions of the Property and
Premises by replacing those Exhibit A, Exhibit B, and Exhibit C previously attached to the
Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which are acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:
1.Extension of 10-foot Easement. Lessor grants Lessee an additional portion of the
Property to extend the length of the existing 10-foot Easement from the southwest end of the
easement to and along the distance between two utility poles, encompassing such utility poles.
The 10-foot Easement, as extended, is legally described on Exhibit B and depicted on Exhibit C,
both attached to, and by this reference incorporated into, this Second Amendment.
2.Replacement of Exhibits to Agreement. The Parties agree to replace all previous
exhibits to the Agreement in their entirety and replace such prior exhibits with the Exhibit A:
48
Legal Description of Property, Exhibit B: Legal Descriptions of the Premises, and Exhibit C
depicting the Property and Premises. The attached Exhibit A, Exhibit B, and Exhibit C are
incorporated into this Second Amendment, thereby becoming the controlling exhibits to the
Agreement. In the event the legal description of any of the Premises conflicts with a depiction set
forth on Exhibit C, Exhibit C shall control.
3.Full Force and Agreement. Except as specifically modified by this Second
Amendment, all of the terms and conditions of the Agreement shall remain in full force and
effect. Neither Party is in default of the Agreement as of the date of this Second Amendment. In
the event of a conflict between any term or provision of the Agreement and this Second
Amendment, the terms and provisions of this Second Amendment shall control. All captions are
for reference purposes only and shall not be used in the construction or interpretation of this

RE: Update on 5 Year Capital Improvement Plan
Objective:
To update the Board on progress made toward achieving the strategic plan goal of
implementing a capital planning process and developing a capital plan for infrastructure.
Present Situation:
The Town does not have a consistent and standardized process for developing and
publishing a capital improvement plan (CIP) for infrastructure.
Staff began developing the capital planning process in 2016. The stated goal of this
effort was to build an efficient and repeatable process for developing an annual CIP in
concert with the Town’s budget process.
Throughout 2016, staff and the Town’s Geographic Information System (GIS)
consultants have been working to build a tool that integrates the Town’s capital planning
needs with the Town’s existing GIS mapping abilities. The primary advantage of
integrating the GIS system with the Town’s CIP planning is that it allows staff to map out
the locations of future projects to more easily identify opportunities for coordination
(which can create project efficiencies and cost savings). The reporting abilities of the
GIS tool also enable staff to generate summary reports and individual project detail
sheets.
In developing this tool, staff has created a prototype 2017-2021 CIP to show the Town
Board what the substantive outputs of this CIP process will be. The following items
accompany this memo:
1)A summary of all capital projects by department
2)A summary of all capital projects by funding source
3)Examples of the format for the project detail sheets
While staff has input details for all of the projects contained on the summary sheets, the
projects have not been prioritized within funds. This will be an important component of
the full process to be implemented in 2017.
65
Based on the progress made this year, the Town will be able to fully implement a capital
planning process in 2017, and will be able to publish a 2018-2022 Capital Improvement
Plan in coordination with the 2018 Budget. The 2018-2022 CIP will include any capital
project that costs $50,000 or more and has a useful life of more than one year (some
smaller projects may be included at the discretion of the Department Directors).
Additionally, all master plans will be included in the CIP because of the volume of
capital projects these plans identify.
Advantages:
•Allows for advanced financial planning
•Facilitates communication and coordination around capital construction internally
and externally
•Fosters transparency (in addition to the CIP itself, the GIS component will be
able to display project information on a public-facing map)
•Furthers economic and community development by indicating where the Town
expects to make capital investments in the coming years
Disadvantages:
•Initial staff time investment to set up the process is high
•Capital improvement planning is necessarily a fluid exercise; new information
may arise at any time that shifts the prioritization of projects
Budget:
The funding for the GIS consultant to develop the tool was absorbed by existing GIS
consulting budget.
