Mr. Mike Smith/President, Park R-3 School District, appeared before the Trustees to discuss the overcrowding problem and ways in which the problem could be corrected. Mr. Smith reviewed the statistics on current and projected student enrollment and what the District is proposing: a new building
Board of Trustees - September 26, 1995 - Page 2 for approximately 500 students that would be paid for by a bond issue. Operations will be paid for by a new "operations tax." The new building will house three grade levels (depending upon enrollment numbers each year). The total cost for new construction and remodeling of the elementary school is $6,665,000. The new tax will generate $350,000/yr. for staffing, utilities, and maintenance. The worst case scenario is a $6.6 Million dollar project with 7.5% interest. The aquatic center bonds will end this year, and Mr. Smith compared cost to the taxpayer on these two bond issues: on a $100,000 home, a resident paid $3.84/mo. for the previous bond issue, and the new issue will be $3.76/mo.--less than in 1985. A total of $16.61/mo. would be assessed for commercial property, which is higher than in 1985. Drawings were presented and reviewed: the "swing building" would contain 18 classrooms plus other rooms, and combination gym/cafeteria area which could be divided off to facilitate simultaneous functions. Mr. Smith reviewed specific building location, noting that existing condominiums to the south will view a one story school house from their decks. Proposed school bus lanes were also reviewed. Mr. Smith confirmed that the combination gym/cafeteria will include stairs and an elevator that will conform to ADA requirements and the practice field area is being retained. Chairman Gillette expressed the Board's appreciation to Mr. Smith for his presentation, and urged residents to vote on the bond election on November 7 election as the proposal is a well-conceived plan--the time is right to maintain quality education in Estes Park. 2.

NOXIOUS WEED MITIGATION - E.V.I.A. REOUEST FISCAL SUPPORT. In a letter dated September 20, 1995, EVIA reported on a conference held September 8 with various regional, state and federal representatives attending. Governor Romer will be directing Colorado agencies to identify a regi'on to become a laboratory and an incubator of ideas that would involve a strong coordinated attach on weeds. RMNP is combating Leafy Spurge and Spotted Knapweed which displace forageable native plants. The Estes Valley is under attack by Diffuse Knapweed, one of the four state-listed undesirable noxious weeds. Therefore, EVIA is requesting substantive fiscal support in the 1996 Budget for the Estes Valley Weed Mitigation Program on lands managed by the Town. Staf f provided background information on the Town' s weed mitigation policy and expressed concern with the request pursuant to limited work force. The Town is also concerned with the over-use of chemicals. Following discussion, the Committee stated that the current Town policy is adequately addressing weed mitigation on Town-owned land, and recommends the request be denied. LARIMER COUNTY/PARK R-3 SCHOOL DISTRICT BUILDING ADDITION - REOUEST WAIVER OF TAP FEE. Larimer County and Park R-3 School District entered into an Intergovernmental Agreement to construct a bus maintenance building. The agencies neglected to consider a water tap fee in their cost estimates. The service line is approximately 500' long 1 and the building has 24 fixture units, and the agencies are requesting a waiver of a 1" tap,for a cost of $4,815.00. Staff reported that the Town has not waived such fees. With recent Habitat for Humanity affordable housing projects, the Town has paid for the taps from the General Fund. A return of these funds is required if this housing is sold on the open market within ten years. However, the Town will agree to payment terms. The Committee recommends the request be denied, with the Town agreeing to a reasonable term of payment to occur in 1996. HOME MAIL DELIVERY CLUSTER BOX PROJECT - APPEAL OF LOCATION. Director Linnane reviewed staff's proposal for location of the cluster box in Stanley Hills. Staff has negotiated with residents and believes an area 100' south of the entrance to Coast to Coast, off Steamer Drive on the west side is most desirable. Bernie Campion, 690 Freeland Crt., is appealing the site based upon traffic safety concerns. Mr. Campion believes the location off Steamer Dr. should be in a portion of the Stanley Hills open space, approximately 40' from the roadway near existing trees (3). Staff contends that Mr. Campion's suggestion is prohibitive due to the cost of installing the driveway, maintaining the asphalt, and snow removal. In addition, with staff's proposal, vehicles will have ample space to view the roadway from both directions from the turnout that will be installed prior to entering the street.
BRADFORD PUeLISHING CO. RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS Public Works Committee - September 28, 1995 - Page 3 Mr. Campion presented statistics from his informal traffic count survey and reported that the majority of Stanley Hills residents are in agreement with staff's proposal. Mr. Campion reiterated his request to site the box to enable residents to obtain their mail directly from their vehicles, and that not all Stanley Hills board members were available at the neighborhood meeting--they should be allowed an opportunity to review the proposal. Director Linnane stated that the Town's proposal provides adequate space to access the front of the cluster box, access is not available to the customer from both the front and back sides due to doors being only on one side of the boxes. Discussion followed concerning an existing horse trail access, potential options for relocation, and active cluster box locations with similar traffic patterns and how well they are accessed. The Committee recommends approval of staffes proposal for the location of the cluster box for Stanley Hills residents. REPORTS. The Committee reviewed the Citizen Service Response and Water Reports for August. Water usage is less than 1994 and revenues are up due to a rate increase.

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT. 1995 Advertising Report. Manager Marsh presented a copy of the Boulder Magazine Fall/Winter Issue, reporting on the history of the Peak to Peak area, including a section on Estes Park.

BRADFORDPUBLISHING.0. RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS Community Development Committee - October 5, 1995 - Page 2 Conference Center Report. Director Pickering explained the value of a conference to the Estes Park economy: e.g., the 1995 Snow and Ice Conference--total estimated revenue expended by conferees in Estes Park during a 5-day, 4-night conference: $623,040.00. Statistics prove the benefit to the community by booking mid-week conferences, and Town employees have been directly responsible for introducing additional revenues to the community by bringing their association conferences to Estes Park. Manager Marsh noted that the revenues between single and double occupancy tend to support the Conversion Study. The Snow and Ice Conference has expanded and now draws as many as 25 different states. Over 100 exhibitors will also attend the conference. Director Pickering noted the importance of booking groups for mid-week conferences, which allows hotel to maximize their revenues with weekend guests.

BRADFORD PUILISHING CO. RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS Community Development Committee - October 5, 1995 - Page 3 outdated in 1991 when the Museum became a Town department.

ARAPAHO MEADOWS, LOT 12. BLOCK A. 311 UTE LANE. HENRY & HELEN BAIRD/APPLICANT -- REOUEST FOR SETBACK VARIANCE. Applicants are requesting a variance to allow for a 10' setback from the north lot line, stating that the steeply sloping lot does not allow for a structure without the removal Of mature pines and rock outcroppings. Building Official Allman reported that the original Arapaho Meadows P.U.D. allowed for a 10' setback from the south lot line, 25' from the north and east lot lines, and 30' from the west lot line. The proposed house is not located on the original building site designated by the subdivision and has not been designed to fit the lot. It is Staff's recommendation that the proposed dwelling be moved to the south and west, within the required setbacks. Applicant Henry Baird stated that the house design was selected prior to consideration of the lot design. The location on the lot was selected for the following reasons: (1) avoid construction problems due to the slope of the lot; (2) avoid a hardship to the Applicant who has paralysis of one hand and snow removal would become more difficult due to the longer driveway required; and (3) provide optimal views for both the owners and the neighbors, per consultation with the builder and architect. One letter of opposition was received from Joe and Kathryn Snyders, owners of Lots 13, Block A, stating lack of information on the impact of the variance. Member Sager reviewed the zoning requirements and the criteria that the Board of Adjustment is allowed to consider. Sager stated that it appears a redesign and a relocation of the house would allow compliance with the ordinance. There being no further discussion, it was moved and seconded (Gillette-Sager) the request for a 10' setback from the north lot line be denied, and it passed unanimously. AL FRESCO PLACE SUBDIVISION, LOT 121, CHAPIN LANE & HIGHWAY 34 BY- PASS, KENNETH AND CAROL DAHLGREN/APPLICANT -- REOUEST FOR SETBACK VARIANCE. Building Official Allman reported that the Applicant is requesting a 15' setback from the northwest and northeast lot lines. The E-Estate zoning establishes a 25' setback for all lot lines. Lot 121, Al Fresco Place Subdivision is triangular with limited building options. Applicant Dahlgren stated the lot was purchased in 1981 prior to the 25' setback being required. Granting the request would allow a greater distance from Highway 34 in the event the highway is widened in the future, would create a greenbelt/noise buffer, and would match setbacks of other homes in the area. Dahlgren added that a variance of a similar nature was
BRADFOROPUBLISHING CO. RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS Board of Adjustment, October 3, 1995 - Page 2 granted in 1989 in a neighboring lot. Mike Smith, owner of adjacent Lots 1, 2, and 3; Robert Meyer, 430 Big Horn Dr.; and Erma Crowley, 429 Chapin Ln., spoke in opposition to the variance noting there is no indication the highway will be widened and that landscaping would provide noise buffers. Mr. Smith also verified that the 1989 variance was granted to rectify a zoning violation between Lots 1 and 2. Mr. Meyer added that the design of his deck was established to fit the lot rather than encroach into the setbacks and onto the neighbors' views. Mr. Dahlgren stated that he has paid taxes on this lot for 15 years, and it will no longer remain open space. Director Stamey verified that the lot could be used for a building site through redesign and/or relocation of the house and could comply with all setbacks. It was moved and seconded (Sager-Newsom) the setback variance for Lot 121, Al Fresco Place Subdivision, be denied, and it passed unanimously. GRAND ESTATES SUBDIVISION. 506 GRAND ESTATES DRIVE. UNIT E. WEBSTER AND LILLIAN FOX/APPLICANT. Building Official Allman reported that the setback for Unit E's patio is 5' from the road right-of-way on Grand Estates Dr. The Applicant is requesting a variance from the required 25' setback to enclose the patio. It is Staff's opinion and recommendation that this is an inappropriate encroachment into the right-of-way setback and would set an undesirable precedent for similar requests from Pine Meadow owners. Applicant Webster Fox referred to his work for the Senior Center and the need to have an enclosed room for his tools. Lillian Fox stated that the patio is their only entrance, that she broke her hip in a fall on the patio which was covered with snow, and covering the patio would eliminate future accidents.

The intent of this submittal is to divide the property known as Manske Addition. The property consists of one lot of 1.55 acres and the proposed lot split will create two conforming lots of 0.90 acres (39,249 sq. ft.), and 0.65 acres (28,348 sq. ft.). Both lots will be served with public Utilities. There will be a detention pond in the southeast corner of Lot 1, and the storm water management report has been prepared. This proposed subdivision qualifies as a minor subdivision under Section 16.12.070 and may be considered as a final plat. Applicant's Representative van Horn reviewed the staff report, noting the owner's concurrence. Jeannette Villers, adjacent resident, questioned what the maximum density would be on each lot. Staff responded that one duplex on each lot would be allowed. There being no further discussion, it was moved and seconded (Pohl/Thomas) the Amended Plat of the Manske Addition be favorably recommended to the Town Board, subject to the following conditions, and it passed unanimously: 1. Indicate adjacent lot information on the plat. 2. Provide proof of inclusion, or application for inclusion, in the NCWCD prior to Town Board review. 3.

The existing residence is on Lot 20, and the garage and barn are on Lot 21. Staff believes it is possible to configure the proposed lots to provide two conforming lots (the garage and residence would be located on one lot and the storage building on the other lot)· The Applicant contends that Board of Adjustment consideration is unnecessary as the owner is not changing the existing non- conformance, just reversing it. Director Stamey noted that he will confirm whether Board of Adjustment consideration is required. There were no comments from the audience.

RE: TRAFFIC/PARKING PLAN IDEAS The Parking Committee held public meetings on September 13th and September 27th to obtain input regarding downtown traffic and 7 parking. The first meeting was to generate ideas and the second meeting was to prioritize those ideas. Based on the first meeting, 13 parking/traffic ideas were developed (attached). At the second meeting, these ideas were ranked by participants. These ideas are more short range than long range solutions to the traffic problems. The order of ranking are: 1. Directional Signage. Develop a new downtown directional signage program directing visitors to parking as well as destinations. Combined with this would be the resigning of Highway 34 through downtown as the business route and the Bypass as primary Route 34. (This was priority #4.) 2. Timed Parking Lots. Establish a 3-hour limit for all of the centrally located parking lots. Officers utilizing a hand- held computer could identify repeat parking offenders. First- time offenders would receive a friendly warning ticket. This type of enforcement should ensure parking lot turnover. 3. Parking Map Handouts. A simple one-page map locating only parking and restrooms would be available at all motels, restaurants, and the Chamber of Commerce as handouts to the public. Time limit lots would be identified.

Town of Estes Park Estes Park, Colorado 80517 Traffic/Parking Plan Ideas -2- October 4, 1995 4. Chamber of Commerce Parking Lot. Develop additional parking around the Chamber of Commerce area stressing its downtown location. The area south of the Big Thompson River can be expanded as a surface lot. 5. Outlying Parking with Shuttle. Develop outlying parking with a shuttle to downtown. 6. Valet Parking (June, July, August only). Make the Dark Horse parking lot a valet parking lot for those visitors who want to pay for a parking space and don't want to drive around. This would be a privatized operation. 7. Knoll Parking/Park/Picnic. Develop downtown parking on the Knoll in the form of small lots dispersed throughout the space. Traffic does not have to enter downtown to access the lot. Provide pedestrian linkage to downtown. An item which received support but which we can only suggest is signage at Deer Ridge in Rocky Mountain National Park to direct people to the Bypass, so they avoid downtown. Items which received more negative than positive responses were: Establishment of a Special Improvement District (SID) for parking and transit; parking structure over Wiest Parking Lot; free bikes around town for public use; and incentive payments to employees who use outlying parking. The Committee recommends the next step be that the Chamber of Commerce poll its members to obtain their input to the process. After that is done, the Committee will make its final report.
TRAFFIC/PARKING ALTERNATIVES PRIORITY ASSESSMENT Prioritv Alternative Directional Signage - Parking and Destination. Develop a new downtown sign package directing visitors to parking lot locations as well as destinations such as YMCA and Park. Special Improvement District (SID) for Parking/Transit. Establish a SID to raise funds for parking and a shuttle to bring visitors from the RV Parks, YMCA and neighborhoods to downtown. Use the Knoll for Parking/Park/Picnic Area. Develop downtown parking on the Knoll in the form of small lots and develop park and picnic areas. Traffic does not have to go through downtown to find parking. Outlying Parking with Shuttle. Develop outlying parking with a low cost/free shuttle to downtown. Parking Structure Over Weist Parking Lot. Build a structure over the Weist Parking Lot that would contain retail space along the river. Sell the commercial spaces to pay for the construction of the structure. , 1 Pink Bikes. Put out old bicycles that are painted a vivid color for anyone's use in the downtown area. The bikes are then used to get around without driving and are just left at a final destination. Valet Parking. Make the Dark Horse Parking Lot a valet parking lot for those visitors who want to pay for parking and don't want to look for a parking space. This would be a real convenience for the community's older visitors. Timed Parking Lots. Set a 3-hour limit in the central parking lots. First time violators would receive a warning ticket. Fines would escalate quickly for multi-offenders. Steamboat Springs is using this technique to encourage parking lot turnover. Incentive Payments. Pay employees who use outlying parking .lots an incentive for freeing up downtown spaces.
Prioritv Alternative Chamber of Commerce Parking. Develop additional parking around the Chamber of Commerce area, stressing its downtown location. Parking Map Handouts. Motels/hotels/Chamber of Commerce/restaurants provide all visitors with a simple map detailing just parking lots and restroom locations. Motels could personalize by giving parking hints to customers. RMNP Signage. Direct odtgoing weekend traf f ic to Hwy. 34 at the Deer Ridge Junction to reduce downtown Hwy. 36 congestion. Direct Hwy. 34 traffic at MacGregor to downtown parking. Resign Hwy. 34. Resign Hwy. 34 Bypass to Hwy. 34 and downtown as Hwy. 34 business to encourage the use of Bypass to RMNP.
