(Eagle) Eagle County has last its lease in the Avon Town Hall and plans to close the
Avon county annex on February 10. The county was being charged just $1 a year rent from the
town.
"We understand that Avon needs the space for new employees," said county manager Jack
Lewis. ~ We are grateful to Avon for the space while it lasted."
The annex closure means county services presently available up- valley will be returned
to the county seat. The closure mainly impacts county clerk services. "1 had hoped to expand
services up- valley," said county clerk and recorder Sara Fisher - who's office provides
everything from motor vehicle registrations to marriage licenses. That expansion of county
services is on hold for now as the cost may outweigh the convenience.
Office space in the upper- valley is hard to find and expensive. "We explored a number
of different options froln $19 to $20 a foot," said building and grounds manager Mike Bradley.
"Most of the sites were from Eagle -Vail to Edwards, but the cost for office space Presents some
budgetary concerns for the county. Eagle County is re- evaluating the need for office space in
the Vail /Avon area."

AVON ANNEX CLOSURE, page 2
Fisher expects most up- valley residents to feel an impact by the Avon county annex
closure. "Over 50 percent of motor vehicle registration dollars were generated in our Avon
office," Fisher said.
The Avon county annex closure will certainly impact the Eagle office. "We are moving
the Avon staff to Eagle to handle the expected increase services here and we'll move
forward
to implement the National Voter Registration mandates," Fisher said.
Before up- valley residents drive the half hour or so to Eagle to conduct their business,
Fisher suggests some simple advice. "People should call our office to make sure they have the
necessary documents before making the drive," Fisher said. "Also, some business can be
conducted over the phone and by mail,"
People with questions about the annex closure or for the county clerk's office can call
Sara Fisher at 328-8710. "The public needs to decide what cost the county should incur to
reinstate the services up- valley" fisher said.

RE: AVON /EAGLE COUNTY LEASE AGREEMENT
Dear Bill:
Thank you for the draft copy of the above - referenced lease
agreement. It looks good to me! I am anxious to have this lease
executed and "move into the space." Pat Doyle called last week and
wanted to be sure and call my attention to the two year lease
commitment. I do not foresee a problem.
Pat also invited me to attend your Avon Town Council meeting
on Tuesday, April 24 at 7:30 p.m. Let this serve as confirmation
that I will attend and be happy to address your council's
questions concerning the services Eagle County will be providing
from the annex.
Send us an original lease agreement at your convenience and I will
schedule on the Board's agenda as soon as possible. Thank you.
Sincerely,
EAGLE COUNTY
