The Estes Park Town Board voted Tuesday to approve Items 1 through 5 of its consent agenda after removing two resolutions for separate discussion and action. The approved items covered the town’s expenditure list, minutes from the May 12 Town Board meeting and study session, acknowledgment of the Planning Commission’s Feb. 17 minutes, an amendment renewing the Colorado Department of Human Services co-responder contract with SummitStone Health Partners, and a resolution setting a public hearing for a new hotel and restaurant liquor license application.
Mayor Gary Hall read all seven consent items into the record before asking whether any should be removed. Two items were then pulled from the consent agenda: Resolution 63-26 on contract renewals for on-call electrical services and Resolution 64-26 requesting a scope amendment to a Department of Local Affairs grant. Trustee Bill Brown then moved to approve the modified consent agenda for Items 1 through 5, and Hall announced that the motion passed.
Among the actions approved in the consent vote was Resolution 61-26, described as Amendment No. 1 to renew the state co-responder contract with SummitStone Health Partners. The board also approved Resolution 62-26, which sets a public hearing for Eastern Slope LLC’s application for a hotel and restaurant liquor license for Eastern Slope at 200 Moraine Ave.
The two removed items were later taken up individually. Resolution 64-26, the DOLA grant scope amendment, was approved after a brief discussion about cost increases and unexpected conditions, including broken conduit, tied to the project. Resolution 63-26, involving Dickinson Electric Inc., Flash Electric Inc. and Southpaw Electric Company, was also approved after trustees discussed a discrepancy between the resolution language and contract terms over whether the renewals amounted to a four- or five-year contract.
