Regarding: Lighting Study
Last week we had a meeting of the Community Development Subcommittee. While your
peers will provide you with an update of our discussion topics as they choose, I have asked
them to spend some time talking with us about their thoughts on the lighting study that is
attached (partially). They had what I thought were some very good points on the subject,
and I know that some of you are questioning the work, or the scope of the study.
You have received copies of the full response to the RFP in your mailboxes earlier, so I
have only copied the "meat" of the response. You will note that this subject will overlap with
Norm's presentation on the C.I.P. budget that follows later in the agenda. He is asking for
some consensus on this (and other) potential projects. In some respects, it might be
impractical to give direction on this capital project until the study is complete. On the other
hand, we get very clear direction if you determine not to proceed with the study, or to
proceed one phase at a time.
PS: This is just a long-winded way of asking you to bail me out. I can't get a comfortable
feeling that we are headed in a direction that the majority of you really support.

Lighting Design Services Proposal
Dear Tambi,
We appreciate the opportunity to present this proposal to you. This proposal is written
to your RFP which we received via Matt Pielsticker, TOA building inspector through
email 8/3/04.
We have extensive experience and background that exceptionally qualifies us to
complete the work detailed below. In summary, my 10 years experience working in the
valley as an electrical engineer and lighting designer is my best qualification. I have
been involved with much of the street lighting planned in Avon, including the main
roundabouts through town, the sculpture lighting, East & West Beaver Creek,
Benchmark Road and more. Beyond street lighting, I have been involved in several
projects that feature extensive exterior lighting design. Those projects include: Swift
Gulch Maintenance facility, Vail Commons, Chapel Square, Eagle Ranch Theater and
more.
Preceding this proposal is a more extensive statement of our qualifications, resumes,
project list and company background.
I have worked through some very difficult lighting codes such as the Town of Eagle and
some very simple codes such as the City of Steamboat Springs. I am sure my
experience and skills will allow me to effectively write the ordinances required for the
TOA to meet its objectives for maintaining the night sky and reducing light pollution.
Proiect
Assess the existing municipal, commercial and residential exterior lighting of Avon.
Review and analyze existing lighting and determine the impact of a lighting ordinance
intended to reduce light pollution. When the assessment and analysis is complete, write
an exterior lighting ordinance to meet the Town of Avon's goals.

As noted all fees and schedules are estimates. The scope of work described can be
carried out to an endless amount of detail, discussions and meetings can be extensive,
and all of this together makes it difficult to set hard numbers to our fee. Our estimated
fees are based on the basic research required, one meeting at each phase and good
consideration. We will work hard to beat the fees and schedule noted above, we may
exceed the fees as required to detail what we may discover as necessary. For the type
of work required, I think we will need this kind of flexibility.

Re.: Work Session Review for Proposed Development
September 14, 2004
Lot 61, Block 2
Benchmark @ Beaver Creek
Dear Mayor Reynolds & Council,
We will be coming before you with some preliminary material that will outline several
options for the development of a mixed-use project for the subject site. As a site poised to set
the tone for future development of the Town Center we have explored options for creating a
development that will allow for the implementation of the Master Plan adopted in 2003 and
the goals being established in the Comprehensive Master Plan.
Our studies have investigated both Lot 61 and the Town as a whole to see how we could use
the development impetus of our site to spur further development and redevelopment of the
core. We will illustrate how the several massing options can address the impact of a large-
scale development for both the immediate site and the rest of the Town. Our intent is to
exceed the standards set to date for similar developments and establish a landmark that will
distinguish Avon as a center for retail and entertainment vitality.
The project will seek to establish a new benchmark for property values and site amenities and
in so doing will generate both near and long term financial benefits for the Town and its
citizens.
We look forward to our meeting and your comments.
Sincerely,
Michael A. Hazard AIA

Date: September 8, 2004
Re: Capital Projects Fund 5-Year Plan Update
Summary: The attached Capital Projects Fund Budget Calendar outlines a process
and schedule for adoption of the Capital Projects Fund portion of the 2005 Budget. The
primary goal for this work session is council review and comment on the attached First Draft
of the Capital Projects Fund 5-Year Plan. Comments and input received from Council at this
meeting will be used to develop a Second Draft of the Plan. Open discussion and input from
Council is extremely important at this stage and it will help a great deal if Council can reach
consensus on the priority and ranking of as many projects as possible. It will also help if there
is consensus on new projects that should be added to the list and projects that should possibly
be removed from the list.
A number of issues surfaced with regard to the Capital Projects Fund 5-Year Plan at the
previous Council Work Session on August 10 and also with subsequent discussions with
council members and the general public. These issues include:
1. Three rating sheets for "Other Potential Projects" received from Council.
a) These Rating Sheets are attached
b) Potential Capital Projects (attached) ranking has been revised to reflect the
three Rating Sheets received.
c) Note: The rating includes previously unlisted (Town Hall Audio-Video
Project) which was added to one of the rating sheets received.
Preliminary Project Description Cost Estimate: Remodel Council
Chambers to incorporate audio-visual equipment into rearranged facility for
improved staff & public presentations, TV programming and attending
public's ability to see and hear information beingpresented. This may involve
significant rearranging, remodeling and refurnishing of the Council
Chambers in addition to the installation of new audio-visual equipment.
Estimated Cost: $225,000
Is this a project Council would like to include on the priority list?
CJ)ocuments And Settings\Nwood\My Documents\Temp\CIP Budget Memo.Doc
2. "Wildridge Pocket Park - Upper Area (New in Block 3 or 4)" - A Wildridge resident
has requested this project be included in the projects funded in 2005.
a) Indicated area residents requesting project have researched potential sites for
acquisition at reduced price
b) Believe they can raise some matching funds from residents
c) Residents are willing to contribute sweat equity to complete project
Does Council wish to move this project to 2005 or 2006 with the condition that
funds will not be expended until a viable site and commitments from residents
are confirmed?
3. Nottingham Road Improvement Project
a) Should Project be modified to eliminate roundabout and additional
driving lanes and recommit funds to pedestrian oriented projects? (i.e.,
Avon Road Pedestrian Bridge; Reconstruct West Beaver Creek Blvd. from
Avon Road to Benchmark Road to include medians, landscaping, on-street
parking, etc.; Bikepath from Avon Road Roundabout 1 to connect with
bikepath at Swift Gulch; etc.)
4. Riverfront Park Development
a) Should we include Riverfront Park Development Project with access and
parking?
5. Municipal Street Light Conversion
a) Should this project be included in 2005 Budget (Ranking 36-39 out of 41
listed projects)
b) Spread cost of replacement over 5 - 7 year period
c) Deduct cost of normal annual replacements (maintenance) from Capital Costs
d) Select new fixture design for installation in new projects (i.e., Nottingham
Road, Main Street, etc.)
Should this Project be included in Budget and if so what time frame should be
used for completion?
6. Metcalf Storm Drainage - Evans Chaffee Construction Group purchased Lot 22,
Block 1, Benchmark at Beaver Creek (0077 Metcalf Road). They would like to pipe
the section of Metcalf drainage that flows across this property to expand parking area.
a) Natural extension of current Town construction project
b) Opportunity for early completion of this section of Metcalf Drainage Project
c) Opportunity to complete project at reduced cost
Should this project be included in the 2004 Budget for Metcalf Basin Drainage
Improvements (Nottingham Road to I-70) pending approval of an agreement
with Evans Chaffee Construction Group based upon an approved design and a
firm cost proposal and division of cost responsibilities?
7. Are there projects on the list that should be removed at this time?
8. Should some projects be rated higher? Some may not have been rated by all
members of the Council.
• Page 2
Council consensus regarding these particular items will help immensely in the preparation of
the Second Draft of the Capital Projects Fund 5-Year Plan.

Date: August 4, 2004
Re: Capital Projects Fund 5-Year Plan
Summary: A First Draft of the Capital Projects Fund 5-Year Plan is attached. We
have also included a list of.Potential Capital Projects as prioritized by Council in the 2004
Budget process and General Descriptions for potential projects. Changes in this draft of the
Capital Projects Fund 5-Year Plan include construction of the Nottingham Road
60 Improvements from Buck Creek to Metcalf Road during 2006 instead of 2007. This change
was made because of the rapidly deteriorating condition of this section of road. Another
change was moving construction of the Metcalf Road Drainage Improvements from 2006 to
2007. This change was made to better coordinate construction with the revised Nottingham
Road construction schedule. This Draft of the Capital Projects Fund 5-year Plan seems to
indicate a healthy fund with a minimum ending fund balance of $1,910,465 in 2006 increasing
to a high of $5,130,058 in 2009.
We have included additional capital projects on the Potential Capital Projects list that Council
may wish to consider prioritizing for inclusion in the Capital Projects Fund 5-Year Plan.
These projects should be rated from 1 to 5 with 5 being highest priority and 1 being lowest
priority. We will use these priority ratings to incorporate these projects into a second draft for
Council consideration. We would also like input from Council with respect to other potential
projects that may not be listed, but should be considered in the final plan. Council may also
want to look at the prioritized list and possibly remove some of the lower rated projects from
the Plan. Open discussion and input from Council is extremely critical to the development of
a long range capital improvements plan that not only provides infrastructure consistent with
the needs of the Town but also establishes a direction and plan to implement the vision of the
Council.

MEMORANDUM
To: Honorable Mayor and Town Council
Thru: Larry Brooks, Town Manager
From: Jeff Layman, Chief of Police
Date: September 9, 2004
Re: Wildlife Ordinance Public Education Efforts 2004
Summary:
The purpose of this memo is to inform the council of the Town's efforts to educate our
citizens about our new Wildlife Protection Ordinance.
To date, we have developed, printed and distributed almost 1,000 brochures detailing
Avon's ordinance and offering suggestions on living with bears. In addition, the media
has been notified of the ordinance and the information will soon be posted on our
websites.
Discussion:
As you are aware, The Colorado Division of Wildlife has mounted an effort aimed at
getting local governments to enact laws to prevent human refuse from becoming a staple
in the bear diet, thereby reducing the number of bear/human conflicts. The Town of
Avon enacted Ordinance No. 04-11 last month to address this concern.
The Avon Police Department has responded to over 70 bear calls in 2004. It is hoped
that this ordinance, and its accompanying public education, will reduce these encounters
over the next several years.
The informational brochures were left at the Avon Recreation Center, Avon Post Office,
Avon Library and numerous businesses throughout Avon. They were handed to
motorists on Wednesday, September 8, 2004, when over 800 were distributed in less than
one hour. We have released one news story concerning the issue and will post the
information on both the TOA and APD websites. A separate notice for contractors, to be
translated into Spanish, has been prepared and will be delivered to the various worksites
throughout Avon. Finally, police officers have been assigned to approach multi-housing
property managers to discuss the new ordinance and work with them to assure
compliance.
Town Manager Comments:

NOTICE
NEW WILDLIFE ORDINANCE
Due to the increased number of wildlife encounters with residents and a continued number of construction projects, the
Town has passed regulations and standards regarding the protection of wildlife and providing penalties for violations of
these regulations. This is to serve notice that the following section of the Town of Avon Municipal Code was passed and
effective on August 10, 2004:
8.32.050 - All construction sites must have a designated container that receives refuse edible by wildlife, or
such refuse shall be removed from the site by the end of each day. Such container shall be a wildlife-proof container. A
`Wildlife-Proof' refuse container is "any refuse container which has been certified to be wildlife proof by the Colorado
Division of Wildlife, the U.S. Park Service or the U.S. Forest Service."
Please have someone on your jobsite responsible for removal of any trash that you think would attract bears at
the end of each day. Failure to comply with this Ordinance may result in a summons to court and/or fines up to
$1000.
If you have any questions or you wish to discuss this matter please feel free to call the Community Development Depart-
ment at 970.748.4030 or the Avon Police Department at 970.748.4040.

Re: Historical Water Wheel Update
Summary: Saturday, September 25 has been set for the clean-up/clearing out for the old water
wheel on the Eagle River behind the Canyon Run development on Hurd Lane.
Jeannette Hix, a part-time resident of Canyon Run, has taken the lead in the clean-up and attaching a
historical dedication to the wheel. Also involved are her husband, Tom, Ron Neville, and Mauri and
Nancy Nottingham.
Avon has agreed to provide a truck to haul away the debris. Since Avon owns the land and no special
permit is required, Norman, Bob and I will meet with the group the week before the clean-up to
discuss what can be removed. Norman said it will probably be a case of first removing all the brush to
see what we have left and what parts of the building are there.
We will also be helping the group with a news release before the event.
Regarding the historical dedication, Jeannette submitted a preliminary application and pictures in early
August to the Colorado Historical Society. The CHS representative said since the water wheel is in
disrepair, and the photos did not reveal enough of the water wheel, they were unable to determine if all
the parts to the water wheel are present, and if the water wheel is worthy of a nomination for historical
recognition.
Therefore, Jeannette is now submitting an application for an archeological grant, which would allow
them to hire someone to evaluate the water wheel. After the evaluation, the Historical Society can
better determine the possibility of a nomination. The nomination would be for industrial significance.
The Colorado Historical Society will be visiting the site October 4, 2004 at 11:00 a.m. They thought
they would be able to better deternine the direction of the project after a site visit; therefore, Jeannette
will not continue the application process until that time. They also wanted the shrubbery removed
before the site visit.

Re: CIP Funding Request to Eagle County
Summary: The attached CIP Project Funding request was presented to the
Eagle County Capital Improvements Committee on August 13, 2004. This committee
consists primarily of Eagle County Department Heads. They review all capital project
requests received by the county and then recommend a prioritized list to the County Manager.
Most of the requests reviewed by the committee are from the Eagle County Departments, with
only a few requests from outside agencies such as Avon. The County Manager then prepares
a recommendation for the capital projects to be included in the 2005 Budget. These
recommendations are posted on the Eagle County web site.
None of the projects Avon requested are included in the projects currently recommended for
funding.

Re: New Business License List for Avon
Summary: A request has been made to include a list of new businesses in Avon in your packet, so
attached are the new businesses since January.
Discussion: There are currently 252 businesses registered with the Town of Avon as of August 31, 2004.
On average, the Town issues about three licenses per month. Community Development reviews new
licenses for zoning compliance and any other related issues, i.e. signage. Copies of new licenses are
forwarded to the Police Department & Fire Department in order to track "emergency contact" information.
Keep in mind the Ordinance states that "only those businesses having a fixed place within the Town of
Avon" are required to be licensed.
If you would like, I can forward the new licenses issued on a monthly basis via email to all of you or provide a
quarterly report in the packet (since there are so few on a monthly basis). I have also attached a list of the
businesses that are no longer in the Town of Avon.
Financial Implications: Business Registration with the Town of Avon is $75 annually. This revenue
generates about $20,000 annually for the Town of Avon.

(Public Hearing)
Summary: Attached Ordinance No. 04-14, Series of 2004 adopts the 2003
International Building Code, 2003 International Residential Code for One and Two Family
Dwellings, 2002 Edition of the National Electrical Code, 2003 International Mechanical Code
and the 2003 International Fire Code. These codes published by the International Code
Council will replace previously adopted codes published by the International Conference of
Building Officials. These codes are considered as new national standard codes and have been
adopted by Eagle County and other towns in the area. We held a public meeting with special
notice going to the building design and construction professionals in the area and only positive
feedback was received with respect to the proposed codes.
The modifications to the referenced codes generally follow modifications to the previously
adopted codes. Deviations from the previously adopted code modifications include:
Building, Residential, Electrical and Mechanical Codes
1. The Permit Fee structure has been modified to correspond with the new Codes and to
basically match the Eagle County Fee Structure.
a. A Resolution establishing the actual permit fees is included for consideration and
approval as separate agenda item.
C:\Documents And Settings\NwoodWy DocumentsUemp\Bidg. Codes\Memo-3.Doc
2. The minimum insurance requirements for a contractors license will be increased from
$150,000 per person, $600,000 per accident and $50,000 property damage to $1,000,000
per occurrence and $2,000,000 general aggregate.
3. Provisions related to Certificate of Occupancy have been modified to clarify duplicate
and conflicting provisions in the current code.
4. Previous fire related amendments to the Building Code have been deleted from the
modifications. These provisions will be dealt with through the Fire Code.
5. Provisions related to elevator permits and inspections have been modified to clarify
provisions for the administration of elevator permits and inspections by NWCCOG.
6. Modifications to the National Electrical Code clarify the electrical permits and
inspections will be administered and performed through the office of the Colorado State
Electrical Inspector.
7. Modifications have been made to clarify the commencement of construction
(approval of final footing inspection) for the purpose of establishing an active building
permit.
8. Modifications are included to clarify decisions and actions of the Building Official that
may be appealed to the Town Council when acting as the Building Board of Appeals.
The 2003 International Fire Code
9. Provisions are included in the Fire Code adoption to clarify that the Eagle River Fire
Protection District will be responsible for permit administration, plan review and
inspections of fire alarm and sprinkler systems.
10. The Fire Code is modified to designate the Building Official as the Fire Code Official
responsible for the issuance of operational permits for fire alarm and sprinkler systems.
11. The Fire Code is modified to designate the Eagle River Fire Protection District Board
of Directors plus a representative from the Town, as appointed by the Town Council, as
the Board of Appeals related to Fire Code issues. The Fire Code Official (Building
Official) is an ex-officio member of the Board.
Implementation of the 2003 International Fire Code will require an Intergovernmental
Agreement between the Town of Avon and the Eagle River Fire Protection District. A
Resolution approving this Agreement is included for consideration and approval as a separate
agenda item.
Applicants will have the option of complying with current codes or the new codes from the
effective date of this Ordinance through December 31, 2004. Beginning January 1, 2005 all
permits will be issued under the new codes. We believe this provides adequate time for
projects that may be under design based on the current codes. We recommend approval of
Ordinance No. 04-14 on Second Reading.

Re: Second Reading of Ordinance No. 04-15 approving amendment for lots
54, 55, 89 and 90, Block 4, Wildridge PUD (known as the "Western
Sage PUD") - PUBLIC HEARING
Summary:
Jay Peterson is proposing an amendment to the Wildridge PUD for the four residential
properties listed above, all of which are located in Block 4 of the Wildridge subdivision.
The application is being reviewed in conjunction with a preliminary subdivision
application and subdivision variance application in order to create the private access
drive as proposed. Final action on the PUD plan should be in conjunction with these
associated applications at second reading, after holding a public hearing.
Unfortunately, the applicant was late in submitting revised plans and supplemental
information as required for the Preliminary Subdivision and PUD as required by the
Avon Municipal Code. Therefore, we are requesting a tabling of the second reading to
your next regularly scheduled meeting so we can hear both application at the same
time.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends you open the public hearing for second reading since the
application was noticed for this agenda, and table/continue this application until your
next hearing on September 28, 2004.

Re: Resolution No. 04-34, Series of 2004, a Resolution Establishing a Schedule of
Fees for Building, Mechanical, Plumbing and Grading Permits Issued by the Town
of Avon.
Summary: Attached Resolution No. 04-34 establishes a Fee Schedule for
Building, Mechanical, Plumbing and Grading Permits issued by the Town. It also includes
Fees for Plan Reviews associated with the corresponding Permits.
Our current Fee Schedule must be modified to correspond with the new building and related
codes. The current schedule was based upon building costs published in Building Standards
Magazine. This is no longer applicable with the change from the Uniform Building Codes to
the International Building Codes. The proposed Fee Schedule is generally consistent with the
Eagle County Fee Schedule and represents approximately a ten percent increase over the
current schedule that was adopted with the 1997 Uniform Building Code in 1999.
We recommend approval of Resolution No. 04-34, Series of 2004, Establishing a Schedule of
Fees for Building, Mechanical, Plumbing and Grading Permits and associated plan reviews in
conjunction with the adoption of the International Building Code and other related Codes.
Recommendation: We recommend approval of Resolution No. 0434,
Series of 2004, a Resolution Establishing a Schedule of Fees for Building, Mechanical, Plumbing
and Grading Permits Issued by the Town of Avon, Eagle County, Colorado.
Proposed Motion: I move to approve Resolution No. 04-34, Series of 2004,
a Resolution Establishing a Schedule of Fees for Building, Mechanical, Plumbing and Grading

Re: Comprehensive Plan Revised Meeting Schedule and Project Timeline
Summary:
At the last Comprehensive Plan Steering Committee meeting on August 31St, members of
the committee expressed concern with the compressed meeting schedule and their inability
to review and perfect the document to a level that the community feels is necessary.
I believe that the concern is legitimate, and in retrospect the schedule was considered very
aggressive by both staff and the consultant.
While it was a worthwhile goal to attempt a complete revision to the 1996 Comprehensive
Plan, it would provide little long term benefit to the community for the Steering Committee to
forward a document that they feel is less than what is achievable with the addition of a few
more meetings and a longer opportunity to engage the public.
I will be available at your meeting to review the proposed contract amendment and revised
schedule.

Dear Tambi,
r «k-_ftNLd esig n.ccrAs requested, this letter includes information regarding the request for additional services
by RNL Design to expand the scope of services for the Avon Comprehensive Flan.
During the last Steering Committee meeting on August 3 L 21W4. members of the
committee expressed their concern that the current project schedule would not provide
sufficient opportunities for the committee to adequately to review the issues and make
policy recommendations associated with the development of the Town's new
Comprehensive Plan. Therefore, based upon direction from Town of Avon staff we have
developed a revised project schedule and task matrix that provides three (3) additional
Steering Committee meetings. plus additional time for review and comment of the draft
documents by staff, the Steering Committee and the public. The schedule would now put
the final ninth Steering Committee meeting in early December and the final adoption
hearings beginning in January 2005. Attached to this letter for your reference is a revised
schedule and task matrix detailing the revised work scope and schedule. Due to the
additional length of schedule and hours required, these additional services will result in
tees of $10.500.
If these costs are acceptable to the Town of Avon, please sign and date this letter
indicating the Town of Avon's approval for these additional services and return one copy
to RNL for our records. If you have any questions or require additional information, I
will be happy to assist you in any way that I can.
Many. ? ny thanks!
