Commissioner Stone questioned item C. He stated he noticed the largest portion of the increase
was to relocate the water and fire line.
Ellie Caryl, representing the West Edwards Trail System, stated they ran into the line which was
not supposed to be there and needed it moved to another location. She stated they had to dig underneath
,power lines and stated the original estimate was $16,000 and it is costing $8,900. She stated this area is
at the intersection of Edwards Village Blvd and Highway 6.
Chairman Phillips asked if these funds will come out of the trails moneys.
Ms. Caryl stated the funds come from contributions from Eagle County, the Metro District and
the ECO.
Commissioner Stone moved to approve the consent calendar as presented, items A through Q,
authorizing the Chairman to sign the contracts once received.
Chairman Phillips seconded the motion. Of the two voting Commissioners the vote was declared
unanimous. Commissioner Johnson was not present at this hearing.
Plat & Resolution Signing
Scot Hunn, Planner, presented the following plats and resolutions for the Board's consideration:
5MB-00182. Lot 8, Cordillera Subdivision. Filing No. 34. He stated this was a Minor
"Type B" Subdivision, a resubdivision of Lot 8 to create Lot 8 and Tract 8 A. Lot 8 will remain a single-
family residential lot and Tract 8 A is being created solely to provide access to Lot 8 and adjacent Lot 7.
Mr. Hunn read staff findings as follows:
Pursuant to Section 5-290 (G) (1) of the Eagle County Land Use Regulations:
5-290 (G) (I) Standards for Type A and Type B Subdivision
(G) Standards. The Board of County Commissioners and the Community Development Director
shall consider the following in the review of a Type A Subdivision, a Type B Subdivision, and an
Amended Final Plat.
1. Standards for Type A and Type B Subdivision.
a. Access, potable water, and sewage disposal on the land to be subdivided are
adequate;
b. The plat does conform to Final Plat requirements and other applicable
regulations, policies, standards, and guidelines; and
c. No Improvement Agreement is applicable.
Commissioner Stone questioned why a final plat for an easement.
Eric McCafferty, Planner, stated to include this into the right-of-way would mean the entire
roadway would have to be re-surveyed and it would be costly. He stated this is the second of these
applications for Cordillera.
Commissioner Stone questioned if permanent restrictions are on this lot.
Mr. McCafferty stated the plat identifies this area as access and it is not a buildable lot.
Commissioner Stone moved to approve final plat file number 5MB-OO 182, Minor Subdivision of
Lot 8, Block 5, Filing 34, Cordillera Subdivision, incorporating staff findings.
Chairman Phillips seconded the motion. Of the two voting Commissioners the vote was declared
unanImous.
Bid Acceptance for Landfill Scale
Ron Rasnic, Solid Waste Manager, presented the bid acceptance for the new Landfill Scale. He
stated the existing scales are a Cardinal product and the computerized additions are also Cardinal. He
stated this company is very attentive to the Landfill needs and it will be helpful to maintain. He read his
2
06-21-1999
memo as follows:
On June I, 1999 bids for the replacement and installation of the landfill scales were opened.
Two vendors offered bids; Fairbanks Scales, $38,706 and Cardinal Scales, $43,734. I am requesting
permission to accept the higher Cardinal bid for the reasons listed below:
1) Existing scale is a Cardinal product. Cardinal is a well known, established scale manufacturer
with worldwide operations.
2) Maintenance service and calibration has been very satisfactory over the years. The service
technician and local support operates out of Denver and they have been very responsive to our needs on
demand.
3) Existing digital weight indicator, manual beam weight indicator, vehicle weighing and
recording software are all Cardinal products.
4) While interfacing between another vendors scale electronics (load cell), weigh bean and
Cardinal digital weight indicator should be compatible, I would prefer to maintain a single vendors
,integrated system. By doing so, in the event of future problems, finger-pointing from different vendors
would be eliminated and would facilitate correction of any problem.
5) I am completely satisfied with the Cardinal products and support and have no reason to change
products solely because of a lower bid for the scale replacement. A few thousand dollars buys a lot of
peace of mind when dealing with an established vendor relationship.
It is true that Fairbanks is an established, worldwide manufacturer of scale products. However, I
have had no experience with their services and support functions, both locally or otherwise.
I believe it is in the best interest of Eagle County landfill and the public it serves to provide the
best service we possibly can. I further believe that by selecting Cardinal Scale as the successful bidder
we can continue to provide this service.
Commissioner Stone questioned the difference of possible problems with the Fairbanks bid. He
stated he believed the only way to accept the low bid is to replace the scales.
Mr. Rasnic stated to replace the existing equipment it would be approximately $8,000.
Chairman Phillips questioned if peace of mind is worth the difference of$5,OOO.
Mr. Rasnic answered yes.
Commissioner Stone moved to accept the bid of Cardinal for the new Landfill Scale, as
recommended by Staff.
Chairman Phillips seconded the motion. Of the two voting Commissioners the vote was declared
unanImous.
1999 Gravel Haul
Brad Higgins, Road & Bridge Director, presented the contract for the 1999 gravel haul for
Colorado River Road and Frying Pan Road. He stated there was a bid that was rejected as it was late
and this bidder was the only other bid submitted.
Mr. Loeffler stated there are parameters that the County must follow. He stated there were bids
rejected in the past because they were late.
Commissioner Stone moved to approve the contract with Harry's Heavy Haulers, Inc. for the
1999 gravel haul for Colorado River Road and Frying Pan Road.
Chairman Phillips seconded the motion. Of the two voting Commissioners the vote was declared
unanImous.
Treasurer's Interest Report
Karen Sheaffer, Eagle County Treasurer, presented the Treasurer's Interest Report for the first
3
06-21-1999
quarter. She explained the report to the Board. She related the Interest Income, January through March,
1999 is $520,484.15 and comparison to previous the previous year of$382,652.91. The Portfolio
Balance as of March 31,1999 is $43,732,314.13 as compared to March of 1998 of $42,573,904.40. She
,stated she believes the County continues to earn a healthy interest income.
The Board accepted the report from the Treasurer.
MOU, Student Union, Inc.
Bob Loeffler presented a Memorandum of Understanding between Eagle County and Eagle
County Student Union, Inc., concerning advance of funds through a grant and loan to carry out summer
programs for youth in the Eagle River Valley. He explained the agreement to the Board.
Shawn Comad, representing the Student Union, explained summer projects that will be funded
with these monies.
Commissioner Stone questioned if there was a plan for repayment of loans. He stated the County
is agreeing to loan the money for a period of one year.
Patrick Paul, representing the Student Union, stated they have visited the Courts and their grant
process is on track. He stated if something should happen they have two fund raisers coming in July
plus they are going to start working for Laurie Asmussen and helping at all of her events, which will be
paid directly to the Student Union.
Mr. Paul spoke to new members.
Commissioner Stone questioned the budget surplus. He does not want to see the Student Union
have to come back and ask for additional funds.
Mr. Paul stated the Town of Gypsum is voting on the Lundgren property tomorrow night. If that
goes through the Student Union will have an acre and a half of property for a skate park and teen center.
Commissioner Stone moved to approve the Memorandum of Understanding between Eagle
County and Eagle County Student Union, Inc., and the advance of funds through a grant and loan to
carry out summer programs for youth in the Eagle River Valley.
Chairman Phillips seconded the motion. Of the two voting Commissioners the vote was declared
unanImous.
RFRHA Award Presentation
George Roussos, County Engineer, stated the next item on the agenda was the RFRHA Award
Presentation, recognizing Eagle County's Assistance in the rail corridor purchase. He thanked the Board
for all of their support and donation. He presented a recognition picture and novelty bond.
VIS-0002, Homestead Drive Variance
George Roussos and Peter Sulmeisters, Engineering Department, presented file number VIS-
0002, Homestead Drive Variance. Mr. Roussos reviewed prior meetings and a work session for the
Board. He stated the Board directed staff to come up with an acceptable platform for bicycles and
'pedestrians. He stated they decided to go with the 8 foot sidewalk. Mr. Roussos stated he received one
letter in support of the proposed sidewalk.
Bob Warner, developer, stated when the project was proposed the sidewalk was for walkers or
children going to school and not for bikers. He stated they are dealing with a narrow platform. He
stated a 3 foot expansion will require a great deal of cut and fill. He stated the path dumps into what he
referred to as no mans land which has no bike path nor sidewalk. He stated he understands the standards
and the County Engineer but does not agree with the recommendations. He stated Berry Creek did a
4
06-21-1999
similar project and would not have been able to do the project per the new standards.
Chairman Phillips asked if Mr. Warner wanted to see a 5 foot sidewalk.
Mr. Warner answered yes. He stated anything you do is an improvement but it requires sizable
costs and questioned who was going to bear the costs.
Commissioner Stone asked about staff recommendation of an 8 foot sidewalk.
Mr. Warner stated the company he is negotiating with only has the capability for a 5 foot
sidewalk. He stated they would have to go with a different company.
Commissioner Stone stated they discussed all of those items last week when Mr. Warner was not
present. He stated Mr. Loche's original recommendation was 12 feet.
Mr. Warner stated the Edwards Metropolitan District met last week and indicated they would not
be putting any more money towards the sidewalk.
Chairman Phillips questioned why curb and gutter was not installed at the beginning.
Mr. Warner stated it was apparently not required at that time. He stated in 1990 sidewalks were
not in some subdivisions as the developer was trying and keep the neighborhood as rural.
Chairman Phillips stated last week after they meet, staff comprised to eliminate the bike path and
just make an 8 foot sidewalk. She stated it is necessary to have something in there due to the number of
people in the subdivision. She stated she believes the 8 foot sidewalk is necessary.
Mr. Warner stated going from nothing to 5 feet is a definite improvement. He stated if the
County is willing to look at some cost sharing it is something to be looked into. He stated the
homeowners do not want the expanded sidewalk. They want a slow walking path not a fast paced
bicycle path.
Commissioner Stone stated Mr. Warner's example of Summit County was a perfect reason the
wider sidewalk is needed. He stated he understands Mr. Warner's concerns but he is trying to encourage
everyone to invest the money now rather than waiting until down the road when there is no choice. He
stated it would be safer to make it wider now. He stated the comprise the Board has come up with is
doable.
Mr. Warner stated the sidewalk at 8 feet will be asphalt and a 5 foot sidewalk will be concrete.
Commissioner Stone asked who is responsible for maintenance of the sidewalk.
Brad Higgins, Road & Bridge Director, stated the homeowners association would be responsible
for maintenance. He stated he is holding up paving Homestead Drive until he hears from the
,homeowners association and developer, but he cannot wait much longer.
Mr. Roussos stated it would be the developers engineer who would determine if the guard rail
would need to be moved. He explained the two foot curb and gutter rather than two and a half feet.
Mr. Warner stated he believes the regulations do not apply to existing subdivisions.
Chairman Phillips stated what has been compromised to is half of what staff would like to see.
Mr. Warner stated he believes it would be foolish not to accept the 5 foot sidewalk.
Chairman Phillips stated the developer and homeowners should not expect to spend over a
certain amount before they know staff recommendation.
Mr. Warner stated they spent week discussing whether they were subject to the Land Use
Regulations. He stated he believes the regulations do not apply to existing subdivisions. He stated what
is going to happen is people are going to try and make improvements as the subdivisions mature.
Mr. Sulmeisters read the project description and staff findings as follows:
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Edwards Metropolitan District is desirous of adding curb, gutter
and sidewalk to one side of Homestead Drive from southerly of Edwards Village Boulevard to Arlington
Place to improve the safety for the pedestrian traffic. Edwards Metropolitan District is proposing to
construct the curb, gutter and sidewalk to a standard which does not comply with the classification for
Homestead Drive in the Land Use Regulations.
This is a petition for a Variance from the requirements of Section 4-620.1: Geometric Standards.
5
06-21-1999
This Section defines the standards of road design and construction for each Functional Classification of
roadway in Eagle County. The Functional Classifications are defined in Section 4-620.D. The
,Functional Classification for each roadway in Eagle County is designated in Appendix C. Homestead
Drive has been designated a Suburban Residential Collector in Appendix C. The typical section for a
Suburban Residential Collector is show on the attached sheet of typical sections and is labeled Typical
Section Per Land Use Regulations
Staff has the following major concerns with this application:
Equivalent Level of Durability and Public Safety.
The Land Use Regulations in section 4-610 A.2. require the County Engineer to evaluate the
proposed variance to have an equivalent level of durability and public safety. The typical road section
proposed by Edwards Metropolitan District does increase the safety for the pedestrian from the existing
conditions by providing a dedicated sidewalk for pedestrians but does not provide for a equivalent level
of safety for the bicyclist or the motoring public because the vertical curb would limit the mobility
options available to the cyclist and its associated affect on the motoring public.
Homestead Drive is classified a Suburban Residential Collector in the current Land Use
Regulations. Under this classification it requires 15' of driving lane with attached 4' bike lane with Class
III-B curve widening with barrier curb with 24" gutter and a 6' detached sidewalk. The County Engineer
may recommend approval of a variance from the improvement standards if the alternative will provide
for an Equivalent level of public safety. I have reviewed the site in the field and have drawn the
following recommendations. Eagle County land use regulations call for 15' of lane width but due to site
conditions and to act as a traffic calming scenario a 12' travel lane on both sides of the centerline would
,be acceptable and conforms to the recommendations in the Highway Capacity Manual Special Report
209 Third Edition. Per the Traffic Engineering Handbook from The Institute of Transportation
Engineering the minimum width for a bike lane on a curbed street without parking and a street without
curb and gutter is 4' in addition to the travel lane. To separate the pedestrian traffic from the roadway
barrier curb with 24" gutter instead of the 18" gutter you have proposed is a good idea. According to the
land use regulations a detached 6' sidewalk is required but the land use regulations also specify that
where terrain mandates attached paths are permitted. Because of the terrain and site conditions I believe
a 5' wide sidewalk may be acceptable.
Eagle County Engineering Department is recommending two 12' travel lanes one each side of
centerline with 4' bike lanes on each side for a pavement section of 32' with barrier curb with 24" gutter
per Colorado Department of Transportation M&S Standards M-609-1 on one side with a 5' attached
sidewalk. The bike lanes and traffic lanes need to be delineated with a 6" white stripe and bike lane
markings per the Manual On Uniform Traffic Control Devices. This design standard would provide an
improved road design for the community of roadway users to wit pedestrians cyclists and motorists.
Applicant Has Demonstrated Hardship.
The applicant has identified several hardships that will be imposed on the public if the Suburban
Residential Collector Road Standard is adhered to. These include using more land than may be
necessary, and creating an urban feature that disturbs the surrounding area. The Suburban Residential
Collector Road design may be impractical and cost prohibitive at this time.
Issues Raised By The Edwards Metropolitan District.
A. The Edwards Metropolitan District only has the funds available for the curb, gutter and
sidewalk. They have not budgeted for the additional bike lanes and grading necessary to do the cross
section recommended by the Eagle County Engineering Department.
B. The Edwards Metropolitan District's primary concern of the project proponent is for
pedestrian safety. Their desire is to allow movement of school children safely along Homestead Drive.
C. There is a concern on the impact this cross section would have on the landscaping and
esthetics within the county owned right-of-way.
6
06-21-1999
D. There is a concern that if the Eagle County Engineering Department recommended standard is
adopted it would result in the project not being undertaken this year.
Ability To Implement.
If this project is to be done this summer it is desirous of the Edwards Metropolitan District to do
their portion of the work prior to the overlay project Eagle County Road and Bridge has planned for this
summer. If the typical section proposed by Eagle County Engineering is adopted it will require time for
the engineer for the Edwards Metropolitan District to prepare construction drawings for review and
approval by Eagle County Engineering Department. This timing may not coincide with the overlay
project that the Eagle County Road and Bridge Department has scheduled for this summer. Because the
overlay project has begun the proposed overlay for Homestead Drive has been put at the tail end of the
project. Overlay of Homestead Drive is expected to occur shortly after the Board of County
,Commissioners considers this request. Following the expected Board of County Commissioners
decision an appropriate action may be taken to either proceed with the overlay or postpone the overlay to
allow for completion of any needed engineering effort and related construction
Mr. Sulmeisters read staff findings as follows:
1. The applicant has filed a petition for a Variance Permit from the Improvement Standards in
conformance with the requirements of Section 5-260.G of the Eagle County Land Use Regulations.
2. The petition has been properly advertised and is ready for consideration by the Board of
County Commissioners.
3. The applicant has demonstrated hardship to the public if there is strict adherence to the
Suburban Residential Collector Functional Classification for Homestead Drive.
4. The proposed standard will enhance safety for the pedestrians of the Edwards area and
provide an adequate platform for other users of Homestead Drive.
ADDITIONAL STAFF COMMENTS FOllOWING THE JUNE 14. 1999
DELIBERATION OF THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS:
The Variance was tabled at the June 14, 1999 public hearing in order to look at the possibility of
constructing the curb and gutter at 12 feet from centerline and then adding a wider path on the
outside of the curb for bicyclists and pedestrians. Review of the AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF
STATE HIGHWAY AND TRANSPORTATION OFFICIALS GUIDE FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF
BICYCLE FACILITIES revealed the following:
1. Many bicyclists will use the roadway instead of the bicycle path because they have found the
roadway safer, more convenient, or better maintained. Bicyclists using the roadway are often subject to
harassment by motorists who feel that in all cases bicyclists should be on the path.
2. Bicyclists using the path. generally are required to stop or yield at all cross streets and
driveways, while bicyclists using the roadway usually have priority over cross traffic, because they have
the same right-of-way as motorists.
3. Where the distance between the edge of the roadway and the path is less than 5 feet a suitable
physical divider may be considered. The divider should be a minimum of 4.5 feet high.
4. The recommended width for a two-direction bicycle path is 10 feet. In some instance a
minimum of 8 feet can be adequate.
Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners approve the request for a Variance
from the strict interpretation of the Road Improvements Standards in Section 4-620.J, Section 4-620.D,
and Appendix C, which classifies Homestead Drive as a Suburban Residential Collector, with the
condition that the improvements on Homestead Drive shall be constructed to the lesser standard as
shown on the attached sheet of typical sections as the section labeled Typical Section Proposed By Eagle
County Engineering.
Pursuant to the Board of County Commissioners guidance on June 14, 1999, and in view of the
existing topographical constraints coupled with an examination of the AMERICAN ASSOCIA nON OF
7
06-21-1999
STATE HIGHWAY AND TRANSPORTATION OFFICIALS GUIDE FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF BICYCLE
FACILITIES guidelines, an 8 foot sidewalk outside of a 2.5 foot curb and gutter is proposed.
Commissioner Stone stated he would like to approve this application based on staffs
recommendation, but he understands the applicant will not improve the subdivision.
Chairman Phillips stated the Board can approve the request as recommended and the applicant
can continue with what they would like to.
Commissioner Stone moved to approve file number VIS-0002 Homestead Drive Variance,
incorporating staff findings and condition it be built with an 8 foot sidewalk and a 2 and ~ curb and
gutter.
Chairman Phillips seconded the motion. Of the two voting Commissioners the vote was declared
unanImous.
