Certification of Mill Levies
Cindy Preytis, Finance
Mr. Treu explained the process. The commissioners were basically the clearing house for the mill levies
for all the districts. The districts set their own mill levies and the county collects them once a year, compiles the
data, and sends the information to the state.
Ms. Preytis presented the 2010 summary and the impact to Eagle County. This year she included some
additional information, the gross revenue, and bond debt, etc. The operating mill levies were consistent with last
year. Most of the changes occurred in the general obligation bonds.
Chairman Fisher spoke about a miscalculation years ago but applauded Ms. Preytis for working proactively
to insure there were no problems in the future.
Commissioner Runyon found the process fascinating. He thought it was interesting to see the range in mill
levies.
Commissioner Stavney suggested there be a work session in February or March to discuss the TIFS and
new tax generation.
Commissioner Stavney moved to approve the Certification of Mill Levies and revenue for 2011 as
presented.
Commissioner Runyon seconded the motion. The vote was declared unanimous.
Commissioner Stavney moved to adjourn as the Board of County Commissioners and re- convene as the
Eagle County Liquor Licensing Authority.
Commissioner Runyon seconded the motion. The vote was declared unanimous.

university, or seminary.

additional law enforcement resources."

POSSIBLE CONDITION OF APPROVAL
That the county license be held until the Clerk and Recorder's final inspection of the premises reveals that

site plan.
DISCUSSION:
Ms. Scriver presented the request. She introduced Douglas Moog, new owner of the property and the
applicant and Scott Stoughton who had assisted Doug through the application process and who would someday
become the registered manager. Mr. Moog purchased the property in September of 2009 and wishes to reestablish
the historic use of the property as a resort recreation facility to host events and provide lodging. The applicant
hoped to generate revenue the first year by focusing on music events and lodging. Business hours would be
limited. Outside vendors would provide most of the food service and prepackaged snacks will be available at all
times. Fencing around the licensed perimeter was expected to be in place by late May. The first cabin would be
used for liquor storage. The area where State Bridge Lodge once stood is currently a lot of dirt; however it would
4
12/21/2010
be transformed into a seating area and dance floor in front of the stage. There will be tables and umbrellas
throughout and a recycled tire base will provide as a dance floor. The applicant met all the necessary requirements
for a Hotel and Restaurant Liquor License and staff findings are positive.
Mr. Stoughton explained food service proposed for the first year. Moe's and other vendors would provide
a variety of food options on the weekends. Snack foods would available at all times. Ice would be brought in from
outside sources.
Ms. Scriver stated that the one concern staff did have was that the proposed licensed premises was not
currently secured and suggested that the county license be held until staff could confirm that the premises was
secure.
Mr. Stoughton stated that liquor license request was in line with the approval of the special use permit
issued earlier this year. They plan to do events this summer. He would be the one coordinating the summer bands.
They hope to have the facility as beautified as possible before opening. There had been a lot of work done recently
to clean the facility up. Stones would provide a boundary for the terraced amphitheater. The BBQ option/kitchen
option was still in the works.
Mr. Moog believed that what had happened so far was pretty amazing. He believed it was a labor of love
for many. He thought they would be able to operate a successful and safe operation by summer. He recently
moved to Eagle County and he was astonished by the excitement in the community about the reopening of State
Bridge. He was hopeful and completely dedicated. He appreciated the support.
Chairman Fisher expressed excitement and welcomed Mr. Moog to the community.
Commissioner Runyon thanked the applicant for carrying on the long tradition of State Bridge, as she felt it
would be a shame to lose it.
Commissioner Runyon moved that the Board find that there is a reasonable requirement and desire for the
issuance of this license, and therefore approve a tavern liquor license for Doog Properties SB, LLC d/b /a State
Bridge based on the testimony, petitions, and evidence submitted today and incorporating the staff findings. Such
license is to be issued upon the written findings and decision of this Board but held by the Clerk and Recorder until
final inspection of the premises, the Clerk and Recorder determines that the applicant has complied properly
secured the premises as proposed in Applicant's site plan and as may be required by the Colorado Liquor Code.
Commissioner Stavney seconded the motion. The vote was declared unanimous.
Commissioner Runyon moved to adjourn as the Eagle County Liquor Licensing Authority and re- convene
as the Board of County Commissioners.
Commissioner Stavney seconded the motion. The vote was declared unanimous.

DISCUSSION:
Mr. Hanagan presented the request. The purpose of the application was to construct a building at 51 Favre
Lane in the core of El Jebel. The building, a total of 1200 square feet would be used as commercial and residential
space for Settlers Stone Sales, a stoneyard owned by the Crawford family. He presented some photos of the area.
There would be no change in zoning. There were multiple commercial buildings on the site currently. The
property was approximately 11.5 acres. The applicant had chosen to use the Crawford water and sewer system.
Fencing would be used to minimize any visual impacts. One way traffic would help eliminate road congestion.
There were no real apparent disadvantages. He presented the conditions.
Commissioner Stavney wondered if not allowing any stone cutting was an inconvenience to the applicant.
Julie Pratte stated that most of the stone would be shipped by pallet directly to the construction site. It was
really just a place for contractors to view what's available, order and have it shipped directly to the job site
Chairman Fisher wondered if there was any way to increase living space in the future.
Julie Pratte explained that a modular unit would be brought in and then be finished to match the other unit
currently on site.
Doug Pratte stated that the focus was the office with a small residential unit attached to the back.
Commissioner Fisher asked about the concerns for water and sewer.
Mr. Hanagan stated that the system was adequate to handle the needs of the parcel.
Ms. Pratte stated that the Crawfordshad an engineer that monitored things and currently the system ran fine.
The applicant believed that until there was a need or plan that changed the issue, they would continue doing what
they were doing.
Mr. Montag stated that it was his understanding that there was a cap on the number of taps into the system.
Commissioner Stavney wondered if there were any concerns with the lot lines.
Mr. Hanagan stated that the lot lines in the illustrations were not intended for measurement.
Mr. Pratte stated that they were not lot lines, they were more like activity lines. The activity would take
place within the lines. The lines were more for illustration.
Commissioner Runyon asked if most of the sales would be wholesale.
Ms. Pratte stated that she believed most of the sales would be wholesale if they were going to contractors.
Mr. Pratte believed there would be a retail component as well.
Commissioner Stavney asked if the applicant agreed with the conditions.
Mr. Pratte stated that they were satisfied with the conditions as proposed.
Chairman Fisher opened and closed public comment, as there was none.
Commissioner Stavney moved to approve file number ZS -2925 Crawford Settlers Stone.
Commissioner Runyon seconded the motion. The vote was declared unanimous.
