HAPPY NEW YEAR!
New Items
I've added a new regular section to the agenda called "Open Public Forum" so that we have a
specific place for people to know they can voice their issues. Lets just hope that a lot of people
had "Go to Town Board meetings" on their 1996 resolutions. . .
The sign code ordinance is ready for adoption. Thanks for all of your work on this project. J
think we identified good regulations for temporary signage and J believe the ordinance reflects a
good collaborative effort.
James Newberry and Conner Shepherd from the Recreation District will be here on Wednesday
to discuss possible sites for a recreation center.
Please read the memo in the packet about Maryvale's request for a change to the POD -- while I
still support the request from an administrative and planning perspective, the politics on this
approval appear to be quite hot. J look forward to your direction on this issue and how you
would like the Maryvale development plans to unfold.
See you Wednesday!

December 20, 1995 Regular Meeting
'Twasfive days before Christmas and in City Hall
the following were present, each one and all
Trustees Jensen, Klancke, Johnston, Wirsing, Havens, Swatzell, and manager Reid. Also
present were Liz McIntyre, Louise Powers, Steve Summrall, and Marty ZiefT
711e meeting was called to order at 7:30 that night
fhe goal of a quick agendalhr all would he allrighf
The minutes were approved from the December 6, 1995 meeting.
Time was allowed for public comment and discussion ensued about the proposed change
in allowed use on Maryvale's Planning Area 28 and graffiti.
Food covered the taMe and discussion was held to judge
711e hesttreats, cheese & crackers, peanut brittle, or FUDGE
A public hearing was opened at 8:00 to consider changes to the Fraser sign code. No
public comment was made and the Board directed that the new ordinance be prepared
with three amendments, reflecting changes in the ordinance's citation measures and
correcting one error. The Board will consider the ordinance at the January 3, 1996
regular meeting.
As the evening drew nigh, peoples eyes drew to the door,
But first came the manager's hrief -- geez what a hore.
The $200,000 loan from the Colorado Water & Power Authority Loan was discussed.
Due to an error in the public notification requirements ofT ABOR, Bond Counsel is
unsure that the loan will be processed. The Board directed the manager to plan on taking
this issue back to Fraser's voters at the April election.
Because of the water loan concern, the Board adopted an amended 1996 budget and
passed amended resolution 12-1-95.
The manager apprised the Board of several other issues.
But in a quid pro quo, with the fudge disappearin '
'Twas the Board turn to talk with us just a hearin '
Klancke provided a contact name at the Wellhead Protection Program as this agency is in
position to assist some of Fraser's water quality concerns. The Board also requested that
Larry Rumph be contacted and the Sealy Mattress Truck moved.
711en before we knew it, meeting w-!;ourned, we're alight
Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and to all good night.!

RECAP:
On November 15th, 1995 the Town Board approved an annexation petition and zoning
request from Maryvale for three parcels of property totaling approximately 26 acres.
Parcel #1 was incorporated into existing P.A. #23A, with no change in the allowable use,
and no increase in the maximum number of dwelling units allowed. (Max # = 478)
Parcel #2 was incorporated into existing P.A. #23B, with no change in the allowable use,
and no increase i~ the maximum number of dwelling units allowed. (Max # = 630)
P.A. #23A & #23B are restricted to 150 residential units until the necessary right-of-way
for the Fraser Parkway is procured and constructed as a two lane paved road.
Parcel #3 was incorporated. into existing P.A. #28, with no change in the allowable use,
and no increase in the maximum number of dwelling units allowed. (Max # =40)
The purpose of the public hearing tonight is to consider an amendment to the Maryvale
Planned Development District Plan (PDDP) approved by Ordinance 154-159. The
proposed amendment would change the use of3.2 acres ofP.A. #28 from residential to
mixed use.
According to our PDD Ordinance, "Mixed Use" would integrate 2 or more ofthe
following uses in the same development area, building, or group of buildings:
tesJaentiar;commercliil,owce, tr ligfii-inalls~w:ith all mdustriail1sesOWfetCitbyur-....
~paee ftoHl.",-olIlHld'CW;oIliCe" @areSldentIa1,uses.
I If approved by the Town Board, this change of use from residential to mixed use would
not permit a transfer or sale ofP.A. #28 until Maryvale applies for and receives approval
of a subdivision plat on this land. An fmal development plan plat needs to be approved,
recorded and filed in the office of the Grand County Clerk & Recorder before any lot,
parcel or portion thereof, can be transferred, sold, or negotiated to be sold.
Currently, there is no water and sewer facilities located on P.A. #28. The closest
infrastructure connection is at the Fraser Valley Center.

Dear Chuck:
I am writing you to follow up our meetings of 11/22/95. It is my understanding that your file
as to the zoning amendment which is now pending for the combination of planning area 28 of
the Maryvale POD, plus the strip of real property immediately adjacent to it and the Elk Creek
(Tubing Hill) Road does not contain a document which would reflect that site being switched to
a mixed use zoning. This letter is intended to fill that void. Maryvale does wish the entire site
designated as a mixed use zone district. We understand that this designation will accommodate
a variety of uses to include the present multi-family designation as well as uses such as a storage
facility or office - warehouse type of use. As you know, a portion of the reason for designating
this use over the entire site is to enable consideration of it as a public work site for the Town's
use.
If I've misunderstood what this designation will allow or if you need a more definitive letter
from me to confirm Maryvale' s request for a mixed use designation for this site, please write
back (or call) soon.
Sincerely,
MiYVALE, LLC

MEMORANDUM
To: Mayor Jensen n~tn Board Members
From: Chuck Reid ~ .,-- -
Date: January 2, 1996
Subject: Maryvale Amended POD Request
We have spent a lot of time discussing the pros and cons of Maryvale's request to amend the
POD by changing the planned use on PA 28 from residential to mixed use. I think that this
public hearing has the potential to be as raucous as the annexation proceeding and I identify two
distinct issues -- one political and one administrative -- you get to deal with the political issue.
From an administrative perspective, I encourage your support of this request.
Ho~er, Frnser does nol have a dennition of "mixed use" in ils zoning code so you may wanllo
defi e what mixed use is prior to approval ofthe requested change. Tfthis is something you're
int rested in, you can request that the public hearing be continued until a definition of mixed use
is approved and direct stafTto go out and define mixed use. In the annexation agreement's
supplemental documents, mixed use is defined as structures including:
Retail Commercial
Professional/Office
Movie Theater
Restaurants
Gift Shops
Support Service Facilities
Commercial Recreation
I'm looking forward to discussing this with you in more detail.

Dear Friends;
First I wish to apologize for the fact that there are some
junk vehicles still on the old Lighting Liquors, or T&T property.
John Augistine, who owns Radio Shack and the dump trucks, was
supposed to have moved them last fall. I have Larry Rumps word
that they will be moved by Feb. 1st. I have never given anyone
permission to store junk on the property, and my 5 year contract
with Larry prohibits the storage of junk vehicles or old tires,
even though when I purchased the property the property, it had
eleven abandon or junk cars and trucks on it.
As to the fence, the post holes were to go in last fall
along U840. Apparently the fire burned longer than anyone thought
it would, and the snows came early. J&L has the contract to
do the fence, and my authorization to get it done ASAP. If there
is any thing else I can do, please get in touch with me at the
above address. Hope to see you all in May.
Yours;
L. Wallis Alves

The Church of the Eternal, Hills in Fraser is outgrowing its present
facilities. A Plarming Connnittee has been at work for nearly a year trying
to determine our best plan of action. During this past surmner, the whole
congregation was engaged in a Mission study to help us determine how we
might best serve both our congregation and the whole town of Fraser.
Two options became apparent to us. We could either build an addition
to our present building or relocate to another site that might be more
visible and provide more space for a new church building.
Investigating the cost of land in Fraser, particularly along the highway,
appeared to rule out the possibility of trying to relocate, and our attention
has been focused on how we could rebuild in our present location.
Just this week, we learned that 5 acres will be made available to the
Town of Fraser in the Maryvale Proj ect to be used as an Ecumenical Center.
I have been instructed to write to you on behalf of our Plarming Corrunittee
and the Church of the Eternal Hills to see what possibility might exist to,
acquire land in the proposed Ecumenical Center to build a new church.
Our present location presents a mnnber of problems because of its limited
size. Also, a more visible location would also allow us to serve the Fraser
conununi ty in a better way, we believe.
Although the Church of the Eternal Hills is affiliated with the Presbyterian
Church, it functions as a "Community Church." Methodists, Lutherans, Baptists
and people of many different denominations attend our services and are members
of our congregation.
We realize the Maryvale Project is still in the plarming stage and that
many decisions still have to be made, but we are at a point where we need to
know which way to go in building a church to serve both our needs and those of
the Fraser corrrrnuni ty . We already have a corrrrnittee defining those needs and
another committee starting to talk with architects.
Your response as to the possibility of using land in the Ecumenical Center
for a new church would be very helpful to us at this time.
