TC Council Packet 04-18-2000A Brief Synopsis of the Town of Avon Town Council Work Session Meeting Date: April 1 & 2000 Councilmembers Present: Debbie Buckley, Rick Cuny, Mac McDevitt, Bob McIlveen, Judy Yoder, Councilmembers Absent: Jim Benson, Buz Reynolds Land Negotiations (Executive Session) Community Development Updates: Community Development Director Mike Matzko updated Council on the Bob Borg duplex. He stated one half of the duplex is a bed and breakfast and the other half he is proposing to make a resident's club. Mr. Borg owns both halves of the duplex. He is proposing to have 24 owners in the resident's club. Staff recommended denial, P&Z recommend approval, and the issue will come before Council next week. Councilor Cuny asked if that is a timeshare. Town Manager Efting said the owners can not trade weeks. He also added that there are so many other rental units and timeshare (Falcon Point) in that neighborhood. Mr. Borg has gotten consent from the neighbors. Council felt that if the neighbors didn't care, than they don't have a problem with it. Bill said we may add on a recreation amenities fee. Mayor Protein McIlveen felt that may be a lead into the new projects coming on line for collecting the fees. Bill said they have resident's clubs in Arrowhead and Cordillera. Mike stated that staff recommended denial because if fits the definition of timeshare, but when you look at it, it looks fine. Mike informed Council that nothing is going on with Chateau St. Claire. White River Forest Service Plan: Representatives of Scott McInnis' Glenwood Springs office gave a presentation on Congressman McInnis' Plan. They stated that every 15 years there is an updated plan. He said all the plans had some good ideas. Scott said the plan is so important to the future of our district that we need to get something out there. Congress McInnis sat down with county commissioners from surrounding counties for their input. What came out of those meetings is the proposed plan. The plan will be submitted as a comment, it is broken down county by county so you will know how it will effect your area. He stated they received a good response. The plan was endorsed by Summit County yesterday, Mesa County is going to endorse the plan, and they are waiting on Eagle County. He stated that the forest service recommends large trail closures, Congress McInnis' plan recommends some closures. Eagle County is offering funds to give to youth to go up to the trails and work on them. The forest service said they would match the funds. Our plan is requesting an 800 number so someone can call in if they see something abusive. The forest service does not have enough employees to patrol. He stated that they believe this is a recreational forest; the forest service is saying it is an ecological forest. He stated that their plan is balanced. They met with groups from the ski industry to the Fat Tire Society to come up with solutions. They came up with a lot of good solutions. A more proactive alternative. Next they explained a chart that was passed out to Council at the meeting. Councilor McDevitt asked about the bike path closure. They said they are recommending some "foot only" trails, some mechanized trails, some motorized trails and some mechanized and motorized trails. Council questioned the water rights. Congress McInnis' plan follows the water conservation board plan and that the forest service has to retain water rights like any one else. Councilor McDevitt requested that the bike path information be sent to Eagle County Commissioner Tom Stone's people so they could put it on their maps. Council was told that once the comment period is closed, the Forest Service will take up to one year to go through all the comments before finalizing a plan. They asked the Town of Avon to support their plan. They informed Council that the plan will be available on the web site. He added that endorsements from city council's carry a lot of weight. Drug Task Force: Police Chief Jeff Layman was seeking direction to see if the Drug Task Force is something the Council wants to pursue. Jeff is trying to comment to the District Attorney's questionnaire as to what the Town is willing to commit to as a drug task force for the 5th Judicial District. He would like to tell Greg Morrison and the DA that the Town would help fund a task force if certain conditions are met. He outlined those conditions in his memo to the Council. Mayor Yoder asked where the money would come from. Jeff said he would have to create a new position. He does not want to give one of his people to the task force. He said that Breckenridge and Silverthorne are leaning that way, and Vail has a drug position. He said the DA is willing to bring on someone. The Sheriff is willing to support a task force if it is based in Eagle County. Councilor Cuny asked how drug busts and tangible assets would be handled as far as kicking money back. Jeff said in the High Country Task Force it was split equally between entities. Jeff said there are rules on how it is spent. Councilor Cuny asked if we have a significant increase/problems in the area. Jeff said it is hard to qualify that. It is always out there. We just need to keep the pressure on so they know we are watching. Mayor Protem McIlveen agreed. Mayor Yoder confirmed that it is a budgetary item. **REVISED** STATE OF COLORADO COUNTY OF EAGLE TOWN OF AVON SS NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT A WORK SESSION OF THE TOWN COUNCIL OF THE TOWN OF AVON, COLORADO, WILL BE HELD APRIL 18, 2000, AT 2:30 P.M.

He is asking the jurisdictions in his district for commitments for the operation of the task force. Specifically, he needs to know: -if Avon will commit full or part time personnel for the task force -if Avon will commit to a cash match for the local cost of personnel, if grant funding requires such a match -if Avon will commit to any "in-kind" match (i.e. equipment, space, etc.) In that this proposal is in the formative stages, I recommend that the council encourage the continued involvement of the Avon Police Department in the discussions. Further, the Council should send a strong message that it will support the funding of one additional Avon officer to be assigned to this task force, if certain conditions are met. Discussion: The future of narcotics enforcement operations in Eagle County has recently made news. The joint task force funded by the Federal Government and staffed by detectives from the Eagle County Sherifl's Office and the Vail Police Department, was not funded for 2001. A new initiative for drug enforcement has been introduced under the umbrella of Fifth Judicial District Attorney Michael Goodbee. This district includes Summit, Clear Creek, Lake and Eagle Counties. The proposal calls for agencies to -staff the April 13, 2000 task force with detectives who will work cooperatively to identify and apprehend drug traffickers in our area. These agencies will also be expected to provide workspace and equipment for the task force. Cooperative drug task force ventures are not new. Generally, communities understand that the drug culture does not respect political subdivisions and the activity is not localized. Nearly every drug case I have seen has ties outside of the political subdivision where it originated. Collaborative task force efforts are much more successful than agencies working alone. The task force approach brings the enhanced resources of participating agencies to bear on the illicit drug problems in a particular area. There is no grant funding available for the remainder of 2000-01. It is not clear at this point whether grant funds will be available to us after 2001. We are lobbying the federal government to designate the Fifth Judicial District as a "High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area" (IMTA) to be eligible for funds. Currently, Eagle County alone has this designation. Currently, when the Avon Police Department receives credible drug information, patrol officers are re-assigned to develop the case. This diverts patrol services from the community and is costly in terms of overtime and personnel fatigue. This task force proposal would use officers from a variety of agencies and would not normally depend on patrol personnel. Recommendation: My recommendation is that the Avon Town Council encourage the Avon Police Department to continue to explore, with other law enforcement agencies in the district, the feasibility of developing this task force. Currently, Silverthorne, Breckenridge, Vail, Eagle County and the District Attorney are all interested in contributing to the task force. All agencies have questions that must be answered and conditions that must be met before they are ready to fully commit. Additionally, the council should make it clear that if certain conditions are met, it will fund an additional police officer position to be tasked to the Fifth Judicial District Drug Task Force. These conditions include that: - a minimum number of agencies, thought now to be around five, participate. - the task force have a very clearly defined command structure 2 Y April 13, 2000 - the task force develop, maintain and follow policies and procedures to assure strict accountability. Budget Implications: The cost to the town for the remainder of 2000 would be approximately $29,000, including salary, benefits, vehicle and equipment. For 2001, the figure will approach $60,000. This budget expenditure should not be contingent on any grant funding, but it will be understood that should grant funds become available, they would be applied for and used for this position. Additionally, all of the Avon Police Department's investigative equipment will be available for use by the task force. This recommendation adequately addresses DA Goodbee's requests.

Mkhael Goodbee, Disutt Attorney April 3, 2000 TO: 5JD Law Enforcement Agencies FROM: District Attorney Michael Goodbee Y?C14 RE: Status of 5JD Drug Task Force implementation I sent a memo out last week, but after having spoken to several Chiefs, my sense is that not everyone received it. So I thought it wise to re-send. First, We have received letters of support for HIDTA designation from United States Attorney Strickland, Congressman Taneredo and Senator Campbell. No answers or responses from the others at present. At present the subject of our designation will be presented to the executive board of HIDTA this month. In the meantime, Vail Chief Greg Morrison is continuing to work on a proposal in the event that there are residual r Byrne grant funds. Toward accomplishing the latter Greg needs responses to the following questions: 1) Will your agency commit to a FTE/PTE for this task force? ?. +t 2) Will your agency commit to a cash match for the local cost of an FIE/PTE for this task force? 3) Will your agency commit to any "in kind" (e.g. use of equipment or rental space, get creative) match for this task force? Be creative. The future of our 5JD task force depends on a commitment/sacrifice from all of us. Please fax your answers to VPD at (970) 479- 3434. Thanks and please call with questions. 4 r .t.

I would like to continue serving the Town in this manner. A member of the Planning and Zoning Commission sing 1997, I have been the Chairman of the Commission since 1998. During this time, we have dealt with major issues such as the Village at Avon, Lot C, the Confluence lot and others. Just as important, are all of the smaller issues that we have also tackled such as home occupations, design review functions, PUD's and others. Three years ago, I applied for an open position on the Planning and Zoning Commission in response to what I felt was arbitrary and capricious commission decision making. Since then, I feel that we have made great improvements in the process and the decision-making rationale of the Planning and Zoning Commission. Additionally, I believe that applicants that have projects under review by the Planning and Zoning Commission feel that they are treated evenly and fairly, although not all like the outcome. Despite the progress that we have made over the last three years, there is still much left to accomplish. We still have applicants that voice displeasure over the process. Our guidelines and regulations need to be revised. Our comprehensive plan needs to be redone to reflect the annexations and changing character of many of the sub areas of the Town. The design review board function will continue to deal with increasingly complicated projects as we shift from community inception to community infill. I hope that I have demonstrated an ability to help solve some of the issues facing the Planning and Zoning Commission over the past three years. I hope to continue by being re-appointed to the Planning and Zoning Commission. Sincerely, /Chris Evans Evans Mendel•Allison G.
