License for Equestrian's, Inc., dba/Ranch at Berry Creek. The application is
in order and all fees have been paid. The applicants are reported to be of
good moral character. This application is to allow alcohol to be sold during
all events at the equestrian center. An inspection was made of the premises
and all was in order. Staff recommended approval.
Gail Grider, applicant, explained the premises to the Board. She
explained their desire to have the optional premise license so there is
greater flexibility for use.
The Board questioned the boundary line being the same as that used by
the school and the 500 foot limit requirement. They also questioned the
service of food, a lease amendment indicating the landlord agrees to liquor
service at all times not just for special events.
Jim Fritze, County Attorney, stated as this is a new license and a stand
alone license, many of the issues apply but differently. He explained the
requirements that do apply and the one he is concerned about is knowing the
distance from the Berry Creek School.

commissioner Johnson moved to table the Optional Premise License for
Equestrians, Inc., dba/Ranch at Berry Creek to May 28, 1996 at 9:00 a.m.

1989 Treasurer's Tax Certificate
Mary Jo Berenato, Deputy County Attorney, presented a request to
purchase a 1989 Treasurer's Tax Certificate. She explained the certificate
to the Board. She stated the purchase ~rice is $124,009.49. Ms. Berenato
stated Mr. Forier did sign the indemniflcation agreement. She explained the
process the tax certificate will follow.
Karen Shaeffer, Eagle County Treasurer, stated she believes the Board's
resolution comes first, the certlficate is signed, notice is published and a
letter is sent to the tax administrator. She read from State Statute. She
sees the certificate being signed today and payment to be made. At that time
public notice will be made.
John Forier, proposed purchaser, stated since these certificates are
being challenged, they researched exactly how this must be done. Vail
Associates' involvement has determined this. The intention is to publicize
next week.
Ms. Berenato suggested he make payment with the understanding it still
requires State approval.
Mr. Forier stated this is not optimal. He would like to know the State
has approved it prior to the payment.
Ms. Berenato stated the County will issue the certificate and the State
will then approve it.
Ms. Shaeffer stated the only time they have done this they followed the
similar process.
Mr. Forier asked how long it will take.
Ms. Shaeffer stated she does not know exactly but it could be upwards of
two months.
Ms. Berenato stated the $124,009.49 is only good until May 1, 1996.
Chairman Pro-tern Phillips questioned Mr. Foyer if there is a right-of-
way to allow for possession.
Mr. Forier stated some think there could be access problems but Glen
Miller believes it to be otherwise.
Commissioner Johnson questioned if Mr. Foyer believes he is purchasing
120 acres of service rights.
Mr. Forier stated the surface right in his mind, if he adds another
building, he might have the right under this agreement to construct a new
building under the surface right.
Ms. Berenato stated the certificate covers only the buildings, no
surface right, nothing else. Mr. Foyer believes it to be different. Ms.
Berenato stated the Board is authorizing the certificate of purchase.
Terri Schall, Treasurer's Office, stated they have a listing of whatever
is covered.
Mr. Forier asked if it references the Deed.
Ms. Shaeffer stated it does not reference the Deed.
Commissioner Johnson stated he doesn't know if what they are doing now
is research. He stated the Board needs to determine if they will approve
this purchase.
Chairman Pro-tern Phillips stated all they are doing is conveying the
Treasure's Certificate.
Ms. Shaeffer affirmed that and stated the law changed in 1992.
Commissioner Johnson moved to approve the Resolution 96-61 authorizing
the request to purchase a 1989 Treasurer's Tax Certificate for the personal
property located in Gilman.
Chairman Pro-tern Phillips seconded the motion. Of the two voting
Commissioners the vote was declared unanimous.
There being no further business to be brought before the Board the
meeting was adjourned until May 28, 1996.
