-Resolution No. 93-45, A RESOLUTION AMENDING THE 1993 BUDGET.
Mr. Bill James reminded that a few years ago the budget had to be
amended by approximately $84,000 when Beaver Creek changed their
service hours in the last quarter. Beaver Creek did the same
this year. The Town of'Avon is required, by agreement, to
deliver services for transportation to Beaver Creek on an as
needed basis. If additional transportation is needed, the Town
of Avon has to provide that. The budget needs to be amended,
.for expenditures in the amount of $96,052. The revenues have
been recalculated and there is an additional $106,377 from Beaver
Creek. Mr. Harry Taylor will be discussing this with Beaver
Creek to try and prevent this from happening in the future. And,
Mr.'James is looking into creating an enterprise fund for
transportation due to Amendment 1 concerns.-
Councilor Hines motioned to adopt Resolution No. 93-45.
Councilor Yoder seconded the motion and-the motion carried
unanimously.
Next on the`Agenda'under Unfinished Business was the Library
Agreement.
Mr. James stated the library agreement is done.
Next on the Agenda under Unfinished Business was the Vail Valley
Marketing Contribution Request.
Discussions focused on a decision to donate or not and
stipulations, if any, if the decision is made to donate.
Councilor Roof motioned to contribute $50,000 to the Vail Valley
Marketing Board if Vail agrees to contribute from their general
fund at least the same amount that we are contributing and that
the make up of the appointed seats is more equal in the entities
participating. This motion died due to lack of a second.
Due to a conflict in scheduling the Council Chambers, the Council
adjourn from the Chambers and reconvened in the small conference
room off the Chambers.
Discussions continued on a decision to donate or not and
stipulations, if any, if the decision is made to donate.
Councilor Nottingham motioned to deal with this in 1994.
Councilor Yoder seconded the motion. The motion failed with
Councilors Fawcett, Hines, Roof, and Hazard opposing.
Councilor Roof motioned that we contribute $50,000 to the Vail
Valley Marketing Board contingent on Vail contributing the same
amount out of their general fund, that the Valley Marketing Board
spends money on results, and that there be a reorganization of
the seats for a better representation of the entities involved.
Councilor Fawcett seconded the motion.
Councilor Hines amended the motion that the Board representation
should equally represent Vail, Beaver Creek, and Avon being two
seats each,-one seat being for Vail Associates, and one seat for
the other hodge podge. Councilor Roof seconded the amendment.
The amendment passed with Councilors Nottingham and Yoder
opposing.
Councilor Nottingham amended the main motion to include the
results come within six months of 1994 and that the money be paid
half of our contribution now and half of our contribution upon
receiving the results. Councilor Yoder seconded the amendment.
With Councilors Hazard, Fawcett, and Hines opposing, thus causing
a tie, the amendment passed with Mayor Reynolds in favor.
With Councilors Fawcett, Yoder, and Nottingham opposing the main
motion, thus causing a tie, the motion failed with Mayor Reynolds
opposing.
Councilor Roof motioned that we give $50,000 to Vail Valley
Marketing Board contingent that Vail contribute $50,000 that the
money spent we have results returned to us or that we spend money
for results and that we get the answer in sixty days, I mean six
months, that the seats be two, two, two, and one and one without
the $25,000 split. Basically, that's the difference in my
motion. The motion was seconded by Councilor Hines. The motion
carried with Councilors Nottingham and Yoder opposing.
There being no further business to come before Council, Mayor
Reynolds called for a motion to adjourn. Councilor Hines moved
to adjourn. The motion was seconded by Councilor Fawcett. The
