Town Board Briefing
May 17, 2017
Please note that members of the Town Board will have dinner together starting at
5:30pm.
The Town Board will begin the meeting with and executive session regarding potential
property acquisition at 6:00pm. The Economic Development Advisory Committee will be
joining the Board in this session which will conclude by 7:00pm.
The consent agenda includes resolutions authorizing purchase of heavy equipment and
approval of a final plat for a minor subdivision. See enclosed supplemental materials.
Also on the consent agenda is an ordinance amending Chapter 13 of the Fraser Town
Code. In accordance with the Economic Development Policy adopted by the Town
Board, this ordinance deletes provisions in the code that currently limit plant investment
fee deferrals to attainable housing developments. Additionally, the ordinance would
delete the requirement that any out of town service agreement be conditioned on
annexation of the property.
A proposed agreement for out of town water and sewer service for Byers Peak
Properties is included for your consideration.
In order to implement to Economic Development Policy, the Town Attorney has prepared
an Agreement for Certain Economic Inducements and Incentives. We have received
two proposals (Fraser Distillery and the Village at Grand Park) and the Economic
Development Advisory Committee has recommended approval of both. Upon approval
of the template, we’ll bring agreements specific to each proposal back to the Town
Board for approval.
As requested by the Town Board, the Town Attorney has also drafted a grant and loan
agreement for the Crooked Creek Saloon and Eatery for your consideration.
At the last Town Board meeting, the Board heard a presentation regarding the Fraser
Valley Metropolitan Recreation District Mast Plan along with a request for a financial
contribution to the ice rink refrigeration system project. The District has requested an
answer before the end of May due to the grant schedule they are seeking.
Finally, Trustee Meyring would like to provide a brief summary of the Downtown
Colorado Conference he attended last week.
As always, feel free to contact me if you have any questions or need any additional
information.
