President’s Report:

Info from the Town of Estes Park:

Brodie Avenue improvements begin this month 

The Brodie Avenue improvements project is scheduled for construction beginning the week of June 17. Construction on the segment of Brodie Avenue west of the Larimer County building entrance is scheduled to be complete prior to the school year beginning, to accommodate traffic at the Estes Park schools campus. Total project completion is expected by the end of September, weather permitting. Construction activity will require the closure of Brodie Avenue to through traffic; alternate routes will be required throughout the project. Local traffic, residential and business, will be accommodated.

The improvements include construction of a 10-foot wide multi-use trail as well as roadway, traffic, parking and drainage improvements along Brodie Avenue. The Town was awarded a Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) Safe Routes to School grant for the trail construction. For more information about this project, please visit www.estes.org/brodieavenue, call 970-577-3587 or email publicworks@estes.org.

Estes Transit (Free Shuttles) to begin daily service June 22

On Saturday, June 22, Estes Transit will begin daily service to 55 stops throughout Estes Park. This year will mark Estes Transit’s fourteenth year in operation. In 2018, the free shuttles carried 82,096 riders to a variety of destinations, including lodging locations, the Estes Park Visitor Center, downtown district, local parks and the Events Complex Park-n-Ride.

Several updates were made to shuttle stop locations and service routes in 2019 in an effort to improve the frequency of service, safety of stop locations for both drivers and riders, and to provide improved connection to additional neighborhoods within Town limits. Read the entire article

These figures do not include any checks or deposits which have not cleared the bank.

Respectfully submitted,

Kathy Beatty
Treasurer

Kathy would like to impress on everyone to pay the correct amount on your dues on time. It creates more problems with bookkeeping than what you would guess. Remember we’re all volunteers.

Finance Committee Report: Finance Team meeting will be next Friday to discuss use of Dropbox and Quickbooks  status, investing of Reserve funds research status and Budget planning update.

                                                       

Buildings & Grounds Report: Carol Prince

                                                         

Linda moved to approve a concrete driveway per engineer’s report, research and recommendation on Kathy Beatty’s driveway due to safety issues with ice.  John Seconded. Approved.

Carol will be sending out a newsletter to expand on this report and let us know the direction B&G would like to move in the future. This will be a topic at the Owner’s Meeting in August for more discussion. There is great concern about the price many of these repairs/replacements will cost. The estimates in the B&G Report are being used for planning purposes. No board action has been taken after reviewing the upcoming maintenance, except for the safety issue driveway above.
