HELD APRIL 28, 1998 - 5:30 P.M.
A regular meeting of the Town Council of the Town of Avon, Colorado was held in the
Municipal Building, 400 Benchmark Road, Avon, Colorado, in the Council Chambers.
The meeting was called to order by Mayor Jack Fawcett at 5:31 PM. A roll call was

Buz Reynolds, Jr., and Mayor Protem Judy Yoder present. Also present were Town

Citizen Input:
Joan Harped presented to the Council a proposal for a multiple use indoor events center
and indoor refrigerated ice rink. The center is proposed on County owned land around
the Eagle County Fairgrounds. The County has been working on a master plan for years
and has never come up with a final plan. Ms. Harned's group decided what was really
needed was an indoor events center which would also evolve into an indoor refrigerated
ice rink. Ms. Hamed stated the County has-been very receptive to this idea. Now they
are taking their proposal on the road and asking for input and support as this is county
owned land and she feels the entire county should have input on what is built there.
The proposed building is modeled after the National Western Events Center in Denver.
It would hold approximately 5000 pyramid seats and another 2500 seats could be put on
the floor.
Ms. Hamed presented a drawing to Council showing the proposed plan. The plan
includes the Fairgrounds, parking, multiple use events center adjacent to an ice rink,
soccer/polo fields, open space, softball fields, and a 9 hole short course golf course. The
golf was added to help support some of the operating costs.
Council was very receptive of the plan and expressed their support.
New Business:
Appointment of Planning and Zoning Commission Members
Mayor Protem Yoder motioned to appoint Andrew'Karow,- Gregory Macik, and Paul
Klein to the Planning and Zoning Commission for two year terms. Councilor Benson
seconded the motion. The motion carried unanimously.
New Business:
Approval of The Lodge at Brookside Park Deed Restriction Agreement
Town Planner Karen Griffith presented the agreement to Council. The agreement
provides for 3 deed restricted affordable housing units per the Brookside PUD. The
agreement was modeled after the Chapel Square agreement. The agreement has been
changed to increase the'number of employees a business owner may have in order to
purchase the unit as a business owner. The agreement with Chapel Square allowed for 10
employees, the Brookside agreement states 30 employees. This makes it more available
to business owners in the town. Staff felt this was acceptable. Secondly, the agreement
allows for the units to be purchased by business owners as well as someone who wants to
purchase the unit and live their themselves.
i ~
Mayor Fawcett clarified that the Town is the parry that must be notified and in agreement
if a party wants to sell a unit; also the Town must be notified and agree to a party that
wants to purchase a unit. Town Planner Griffith stated that is correct, it is modeled after
the Wildwood Townhomes agreement.
Mayor Fawcett asked, in terms of ownership, is the title registered with the County and
are taxes billed directly to the owner. Planner Griffith stated yes. Mayor Fawcett asked
if there was-also a restriction that would be recorded with the title. Planner Griffith stated
yes, each owner will sign a separate deed restriction agreement that will be recorded with
the title.
Councilor Reynolds, Sr. motioned to approve The Lodge at Brookside Park Deed
Restriction Agreement. The motion was seconded by Mayor Protein Yoder. The motion
carried with Councilors Richard Carnes, Bob McIlveen, Buz Reynolds, Sr., Buz
Reynolds, Jr., and Mayor Protein Judy Yoder in favor of the approval. Councilor Jim
Benson voted against approval of the agreement.
