Staff is supportive of this change. The applicant proposes to construct thirty-five units on Lot 4A and has addressed most of the conditions listed in the February staff report. The proposed stormwater detention area has been changed from one large detention basin to three or four small ponds. A wetlands expert was hired to determine what plantings would enhance the wildlife value of the area; those plantings are included in the proposal. Tall fencing may be necessary to protect the new plantings and may be in place for a few years. The proposed detention ponds will be constructed in the fall of 2006, with some of the planting occurring at that time. The remainder of the planting around the detention ponds would take place in the spring of 2007. Planner Chilcott stated a sidewalk along the south property line is now shown in the submitted plans. Staff recommends the addition of curb and gutter. Concerns were raised at the February meeting about fire department access to the interior of the development. Staff has since.discussed this access with Fire Chief Scott Dorman, who verified his acceptance of the plans and stated there is adequate access. The interior sidewalk will be constructed with rebar set in six inches of concrete, which will support the weight of fire trucks. Seventy-nine parking spaces are required for the development. The plans submitted originally showed nine of those spaces as "optional." Current plans reflect construction of all required parking spaces; the formerly optional spaces will be constructed during the final phase of the development. Planner Chilcott noted that some neighboring property owners have expressed concerns over the impact of the development to their property. She stated the Planning Commission can address compatibilty issues in greater detail when proposals are for a zoning change than when there is an existing use by right. The Gresslins, who own the property to the south, across from the development's proposed entrance off Kiowa Drive, requested the driveway be moved so headlights would not shine into their home. The applicant has angled the driveway and shifted its location fifteen feet to the east to address this concern. In visiting the site, staff found that headlights may still hit the home and recommends aligning the driveway so that headlights will be directed along the property line between the Gresslin's lot and the adjacent vacant lot to the east. Doing so would eliminate the need to relocate the existing postal cluster box and could save the developer money. The project engineer and the applicant contend that headlights will not shine on the home with the driveway located as is currently proposed. Some neighboring property owners have also requested the proposed common building be relocated. Planner Chilcott stated this is a much more significant request that would require site redesign and noted the location of the common building is not under the jurisdiction of the Planning Commission. Braet RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS Estes Valley Planning Commission 5 April 18, 2006 Public Comment: Amy Plummer of Van Horn Engineering and Surveying was present to represent the applicant. She stated the applicant is agreeable to all recommended conditions of approval except the realignment of the driveway. She noted Mr. Tawney feels the proposed modifications to the drivewayl angling it and moving it fifteen feet to the east, will prevent headlights from shining into the neighbors' windows. Mr. Tawney would like to wait until the final phase of the development to add the four additional parking spaces at the northeast end of the parking area being discussed; relocating and realigning the driveway as staff has suggested would require the immediate construction of those parking spaces. Further discussion about the location of the driveway followed. Tom Gresslin of 2824 Kiowa Trail addressed the Commissioners, reiterating his concerns about the possibility of headlights shining into his windows and requesting the relocation and realignment of the proposed driveway. He expressed his appreciation of Planner Chilcott's work in reviewing this project. Frank Theis, agent for the developers of Mary's Lake Lodge, The Promontory, and Mary's Meadow Development, requested that the improvement guarantee for revegetation and wildlife enhancement of the area around the detention basins not be required to cover plantings other than basic revegetation. Town Attorney White clarified that the issue is not under the purview of the Planning Commission; the request must be presented to the Town, which handles such matters administratively. The applicant, Jim Tawney, stated the location of the driveway that Mr. Gresslin objects to is proposed to be fifty-five feet to the east of Mr. Gresslin's residence. Moving it as staff has proposed would make it seventy-five feet to the east of the house. He contends the photo exhibited to Planning Commissioners does not accurately depict the orientation of the driveway. It was moved and seconded (Klink/Hix) to recommend approval of the Amended Plat, Mary's Meadow Replat of Lots 2,4, and Outlot A of Mary's Lake Replat, a Portion of Section 2, Township 4 North, Range 73 West of the 6~h P.M., to the Town Board of Trustees, with the findings and conditions recommended by staff, and the motion passed with all Commissioners voting in favor with the exception of Commissioner Kitchen, who abstained. CONDITIONS: 1. Compliance with the affected agency comments with the exception that an easement shall not be required to discharge water from detention basins onto the downhill property. 2. Review and approval of the final drainage report by the Town staff and Larimer County Engineering Department. 3. A five-foot-wide non-motorized pedestrian trail easement shall be shown along the Lot 2A western property line. 4.

PROPOSED CHANGE TO ESTES VALLEY DEVELOPMENT CODE SECTION 4.4.D AND SECTION 13.3 TO ALLOW OUTDOOR ATMs AND INTERNET/COMPUTER KIOSKS IN THE CD-Commercial Downtown ZONING DISTRICT Planner Shirk stated that a variance request approved in the summer of 2005 prompted planning staff to propose the addition of language in the Estes Valley Development Code (EVDC) to allow automated teller machines (ATMs) and computer kiosks to be placed outdoors in the downtown area. The suggested code change was discussed at the March Planning Commission meeting. Given the number of questions Commissioners had, staff agreed to clarify the wording and present the request again. Current regulations prohibit ATMs from being located outside a building in the downtown area. Internet kiosks are being used in other areas of the country and can serve a variety of informational functions, such as finding a restaurant, making a hotel reservation, dr checking the weather forecast. The Convention and Visitors Bureau has expressed a desire to install informational kiosks throughout the downtown area to assist visitors, by providing parking, lodging, entertainment, and other information. Current regulations also prohibit this type of kiosk..The machines could be operated by any property owner or renter. An ATM/kiosk could not be located in a public right-of-way unless it was operated by the Town, and if it were free-standing, it would have to meet applicable building setbacks. ATMs and kiosks could not restrict the movement of pedestrians through plazas, along adjoining sidewalks, or through other areas intended for public usage; plans would be reviewed by staff to ensure compliance with this standard. The content of a computer kiosk would be regulated by Title 9 of the Municipal Code. The additions would be made to Section 4.4.D.1.a.(3), Additional Zoning District Standards, and to Section 13.3, Definitions, as follows: §4.4.D Additional Zoning District Standards. 5. Operational Requirements. a. Outdoor Sales, Use, Storaae and Activity in the CD Zoning District. (3) Exceptions. (e) Automated Teller Machine (ATM) and/or Interactive Kiosks intended to serve walk-up customers only. ATMs or kiosks shall not obstruct the movement of pedestrians through plazas, along adjoining sidewalks, or through other areas intended for public usage. Grae¢ RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS Estes Valley Planning Commission 7 April 18,2006 §13.3 Definitions 128.5 Interactive Kiosk shall mean a device that allows the public to access the internet, send and retrieve e-mail, or provide wayfinding or other information. These may be incorporated within an existing structure or be free-standing. They shall not be used to provide off-premise signage for other businesses. The display shall comply with the adopted sign code. Content shall be restricted to comply with Title 9 "Public Peace, Morals and Safety" of the Municipal Code. At the request of Chair Pohl, Planner Shirk and Director Joseph clarified that "off- premise signage" refers to a static sign and that display of any off-site content would have to be user-activated and limited to the screen. Commissioner Klink stated he would move to approve the proposed addition to the Estes Valley Development Code, provided that planning staff will add this clarification to the language. Public Comment: None. It was moved and seconded (Klink/Eisenlauer) to recommend approval of the proposed additions to the Estes Valley Development Code Section 4.4.D and Section 13.3 to allow outdoor ATMs and Computer/Interactive Kiosks in the CD-Commercial Downtown zoning district, at the recommendation of staff, to the Town Board of Trustees and Larimer County Commissioners, and the motion passed unanimously. 7. REPORTS Planner Shirk reported that a request will be made at the May 16, 2006 Planning Commission meeting to amend language in the Estes Valley Development Code to allow home daycare providers to have one employee to assist with daycare. The request has been prompted by local childcare providers, who have stated that having two adults in a childcare setting improves safety. Chair Pohl expressed his appreciation of planning staff, particularly Ms. Chilcott, for their work in reviewing the Mary's Meadow Development project. There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 2:57 p.m. Edward B. Pohl, Chair Julie Roederer, Recording Secretary Gra#t Community Development Department Memo To: Honorable Mayor Baudek Board of Trustees Town Administrator Repola From: David Shirk, Plannerl~ Date: March 28,2006 Subject: Deer Ridge Final Plat Background. This is a request to subdivide two existing lots into a four lot Final Plat of the Deer Ridge Subdivision. The Town Board approved the Preliminary Plat on February 4, 2004, and a Preliminary Plat time extension on April 8,2005. The applicant is now ready to finalize the plat for sale of the lots. There has been a minor r change in the configuration of two of lots to ensure a rock 1\4%* outcropping is contained entirely on one lot and not straddling the property line; no other changes have been proposed. The site is located at 1925 Homestead Lane. Preliminary plat approval included a change of zoning from "RM" Multi-Family to "E-1" Estate, which will eliminate further development potential. Budget.

The existing 48 units, if built today, would require 84 parking spaces. Fifty-four are provided. Because this is not new development, this condominium conversion is not required to provide the additional spaces. However, Staff has reviewed the plan with the prospective buyer, the Estes Park Housing Authority, and has determined that some minor changes to the parking lot will yield 62 spaces, which will help alleviate parking pressure. In addition to this, the Planning Commission has recommended that parking be specifically addressed in the condominium declarations. Budget. N/A Action. At their regularly scheduled March 21, 2006 meeting, the Estes Valley Planning Commission voted 4-3 to recommend APPROVAL of the Pines Preliminary Condominium Map CONDITIONAL TO: 1.

Their objective is to retain a majority of the units as senior housing while selling the remaining units at market rate so as to facilitate the elimination or at least substantial reduction of the debt that they will have on the property. To enable the EPHA to accomplish this purchase, they have asked for financing from the Town in the amount of $2.7 million. The ratio of the loan to property value is approximately 56%. The Town would be secured by a first position deed of trust on the property. The terms of the loan would be 2 years with an annually adjustable interest rate based upon our current rate of return on deposits which is 3.38% annually. Regular payments are not required; however, payments will be made as each unit is sold. If there is an outstanding balance after twelve months, the loan will re- price for the final twelve months of the loan. There is no penalty for prepayment of the loan. Budget There are various options for funding the loan from existing fund balances. The attached spreadsheet shows three options. The loan would not impact the Town's operating revenues and would in fact have a positive impact on interest income. Action Staff requests consideration of the loan to the Estes Park Housing Authority and designation of an interest rate that is % over the Town's current rate of return on short term investments.

MacDonald has proposed shuttle bus service along Big Thompson Avenue and Elkhorn Avenue from July 1 through September 4, 2006. The shuttle will operate from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. using the Visitor Center as a - hub. Currently, Town staff is working with MacDonald personnel to identify the location of stops along both Big Thompson and Elkhorn. This process includes discussions with affected property owners along Big Thompson Avenue. Once identified, Town staff will provide appropriate markings to identify the stops. The routes are estimated to take varying round trip times based upon the level of service planned. From 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. and again from 7:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., one bus will service the route at 30 minute intervals. Between 10:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m., two buses will cover the routes at approximately 20 minute intervals. Given what we have learned about the bus systems in Springdale, UT (Zion National Park) and Bar Harbor, ME (Acadia NP), there will likely be changes to the schedules once we see how the plan operates in reality. Therefore, even these times are estimates at this time. MacDonald has proposed to provide service on the aforementioned routes for the years of 2006, 2007 and 2008. The prices for each year are $95,067, $98,870 and $102,825 respectively.

Please consider the following updated proposal for operation of the service. The shuttle willlink the new Visitor Center, hotels and the downtown area. The exact route will be proposed to the Town for approval. Buses will operate every thirty (30) minutes. Passengers will be able to transfer to and from the "Hikers Shuttle" at the Visitor Center for access to the Park. There will be minimal waiting time for the connection in both directions. Two buses will be used in the operation. They will be two door buses of thirty (30) foot length that seat twenty- eight (28) passengers with windows and complete HVAC systems. The buses will be accessible to passenger with disabilities. McDonald Transit will provide the buses and all services necessary to operated and maintain the vehicles. The Town will be responsible for marketing the service. We will cooperate in that effort. The service will be provided at no charge to the passenger. McDonald Transit will identify desired bus stop locations for approval by the Town. The Town will be responsible for installation and maintenance of the bus stops. Buses will operate daily from July 1,2006 to September 4,2006. The hours of service will be from 8:00 am to 10:00 pm. Two buses will run from 8:00 am to 7:00 pm and one (1) bus will run from 7:00 pm to 10:00 pm. This results in 25 service hours per day for 66 days and atotal of 1,650 service hours in 2006. We propose the following fee for the service: 1. The price for the 2006 season is $95,067; payable in two equal installments on August 1, 2006 and September 1, 2006. Mr. Randy Repola, Town Administrator March 1, 2006 Page 2 2. McDonald Transit will take the price risk of the cost of fuel above $2.50 per gallon pursuant to a $5,000 deposit from the Town. 3. Employees on this contract are covered by the Service Contract Act (SCA)., The rate quoted above is based on the current SCA rates. Any increased promulgated by the Federal Department of Labor would be passed through to the City in the annual cost. 4. We propose a three (3) year agreement. The cost for 2007 would be $98,870 and 2008 would be $102,825. The costs for 2007 and 2008 would be adjusted based on the Service Contract Act and the fuel deposit or $2.50/gallon amount. 5. If the shuttle is successful, the Town should consider purchasing new buses for the service for the 2009 season. We will assist the Town in acquiring a Federal Transit Administration grant for that purposed. We stand ready to implement this proposal upon approval of the Town. We are donating the use of two vehicles to the servite in exchange for Rocky Mountain National Park accepting two replacement vehicles on one ofthe Park routes. For that reason; we must receive the Park's approval for this exchange before entering into the contract for the Town Shuttle. We look forward to serving you and the citizens of Estes Park. ·.

The funds will come from budgeted funds with in the Community Reinvestment account for the Stanley Park Grandstand renovation which will not happen this year. • Page 2 Estes Park Convention & Visitors Bureau Memo To: Mayor Baudek and Board of Trustees From: Tom Pickering CC: Town Administrator Repola Date: April 21, 2006 Re: Visitors Center Project Background: With the Estes Park Visitors Center nearing completion there are three items that need to be brought to the Board. 1. Following Hurricane Katrina prices for concrete and asphalt saw - - dramatic increases as well as shortages. At that time we informed the board that rather than guess where the prices might be in May 2006 we would ask our contractors to take the 2005 bid price and return with increases to the product. This was done to protect the local contractors from facing unforeseen increases and risking business failures for causes out of their control. Dallman construction has submitted the actual cost increases. 2. Staff asked that the project architect organize weekly management meetings and act as the overall project manager. The architect is to bill for only actual hours and submit an invoice at the end of the project. 3. Due to questions of available space for signage on and around the building, the project team did not design or bid any signage for the building until it was completed, and best locations could be determined for the signage. The architect has suggested that signs be added to the building above each door. 1 The Estes Park Housing Authority ..2 lL j V 47" i F./ * -> 5 . 4/' 1 . -4 1, 1 *PINE & 1 LfkNOLL 1 51:1 Town of Estes Park [ APAR™ENm t ~ 1 April 25,2006 111 11*1 MISSION STATEMENT PINE KNOLL APARTMENTS --j-- To ensure a balanced and ,·-~-ow Income Senior rental apartments since 1982 ~ sustainable community, the , 48 One Bedroom Units .
