It was quite an experience being in Denver for the big snow and flying out ofDIA with people who had been stranded for over 60 hours! I'd brag that the city's slow response would not happen in Fraser except that I'lIleam from Mayor Webb's bravado and just make sure that we can be as ready as possible for our turn. Anyway, thinking about next week's Board meeting. . . We'll begin at 6:00 with a workshop on the 1998 Proposed Budget. Please bring your copy of the budget. We are hoping that structure behind the Fraser Brazier (the Engel's barn) will be razed within the next two weeks. The hopefully part relates to the public hearing scheduled for Wednesday at which time you will give a thumbs-up (or thumbs-down) to the proposed razing plan. The same type of bum that was used at the Lightning Liquors is planned -- bum and haul. If you approve the plan submitted by East Orand Fire, the burn will be scheduled as soon as possible. The as-built for Mink Lane Townhomes (Casey Cook) is scheduled for Wednesday and Catherine will provide a staff recommendation at the meeting. We'll review the various leases and intergovernmental agreements the Town has with other parties to get your direction and input. Just a reminder that the Workshop to consider next year's goals and objectives (and other things) is on Friday, November 7th from 3:00 p.m. to approximately 9:00 p.m. and on Saturday from 8:00 to noon. See you Wednesday! ýÿ . J . . TOWN OF FRASER "Icebox of the Nation" P.O.

BOARD.MEMBERS EAST GRAND FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT NO.4 ~O. Box 2967 Bob Dart Rich Holzwarth Winter Park, Colorado 80482 Jim Holahan (970) 726-5824 · Fax (970) 726-5938 Kris Holinka Steven Paulk Date: October 23,1997 To: Town ofFtaser From: Todd Holzwarth, Chief Subject: Old garage training and demolition burn The burn plan for the Engle's building will involve three phases. The fIrst phase will be. the lightmg and attacking of several interior fIres over the period of one to two hours. This will generate moderate amounts of smoke and steam while hose teams advance on, and knock down, fIres. The next phase will be letting the building become fully involved with fIre. No attempt will be made to put the fIre out, how~ver hand lines and master streams will be used to control fIre growth and protect exposures. Large amounts of smoke will at times be produced as material warms up but we will try to keep the fIre as hot as possible to have as complete as combustion as possible. I would estimate this phase will take one hour. The last phase will begin when the building is on the ground and a loader, or bulldozer, can work the burning debris into a pile and let it fInish burning np. This phase could last for a number of hours and produce varying amounts of smoke. The fIre department will be laid out from two fIre hydrants for all of the fIrst two phases and part of the third. During the first and third phases water use would probably not exceed 500 gallons per minute and would only be for short periods. During the second phase. water use could go as high as 2000 gallons per minute and could last for portions of the hour it should take to bring the building down.
