CITIZEN COMMENTS
1. Bill St/ding, Steve Crockett, Frank Peters, Bill Tuite and Michael
Gassman, the city Council in 1989, were present to request Council adopt a
resolution urging President Bush not to wage war with Iraq but to pursue a
peaceful alternative. Council, with the exception of Councilman Hershey,
agreed to add discussion of this resolution at the end of the agenda.
2. Jannette Whitcomb, environmental health department, told Council
their department is conducting "Turkey Talk" over the next few days to help
people have a safe and healthy thanksgiving meal. These will be held at
City Market and Clark's Market and include meat thermometer give aways.
3. Camilla Sparlin said the trolley group is not a dead issue in terms of
serious concerns. Ms. Sparlin requested the city stop giving away the
trolleys. One issue is the city is breaking up a unique matched set of historic
trolleys. Ms. Sparlin told Council all the towns that are receiving Aspen's
trolleys have standard gauge. The trolley group requests the city sell these
Regular Meeting Aspen City Council November 25~ 2002
trolleys, rather than give them away, to people who are passionate about
trolleys, preferably in Colorado. The Pikes Peak railway company is
considering putting in a narrow gauge and they have made an offer to the
city for $7500 for these trolleys. Ms. Sparlin noted the trolley group was
given $20,000 in trust from a foundation ro restore one trolley. The letter of
record demonstrates that the foundation did not intend for this restored
trolley to benefit some other municipality.
Ed Sadler, asset manager, told Council the town in New Zealand has assured
him their trolley runs on narrow gauge and that they will restore the trolleys.
The town of Issaquah, Washington, is laying another track so they can run
both sizes. Tucson, Arizona, runs trolleys on several s~zes of track. All
towns have promised to restore and to use these trolleys.
Councilman Paulson said he is distressed at the way the trolleys have been
handled. There is a fiscal responsibility to the foundation that made the
grant to restore one of the trolleys and the presumption was to keep it in
Aspen. Councilman Paulson said to give the trolley away without
reimbursement is not the right thing to do. Councilman Paulson said the city
should not be giving away any assets; they should get money for these.
Sadler reminded Council they approved a hierarchy to give these trolleys
away free to towns who would use them or anyone who will restore them
but not use them as trolleys, the price is $5000. Anyone purchasing the
trolleys on speculation, the price is $25,000. Sadler told Council the first
choice is to give them to places that will use the trolleys as trolleys. Mayor
Klanderud said the Pikes Peak Railway group did not offer what the city
asked for. Kip Wheeler said it is the understanding of the donor that the
trolley was to be restored and to be put on display in a public place, and that
the trolley was to remain in Aspen. Wheeler said giving away the trolley
was not within the reason for which the money was contributed. Mayor
Klanderud said that was not communicated to Council when the trolley
group brought forward the idea of restoring a trolley and having it on display
prior to the election. Mayor Klanderud noted it was understood between
Council and the trolley company that that trolley would have to be removed
from Rubey Park prior to the winter season.
John Worcester, city attorney, told Council he met with the woman
representing the foundation. This foundation was willing to give money to
the trolley group, not to the city. The trolley group came to Council and
asked that the city accept the money so that the foundation could get a tax
3
Regular Meeting Aspen City Council November 25, 2002
benefit. That is the only reason the city accepted the money. Worcester
pointed out at that time, Council was considering getting rid of the trolleys
and that foundation knew the trolleys were going to be sent out of town. It
was understood that the money given to the trolley group was to restore one
trolley and to put it on display so that the trolley group could campaign
towards the election for keeping the trolley in town. Worcester stated it was
made clear to the foundation representative that the restoration and the
display on public property was condition upon that election.
Mayor Klanderud asked if a majority Council wishes to reconsider the
previous motion to get rid of the trolleys. Councilmembers Hershey,
Semrau and Mayor Klanderud agreed they do not wish to reconsider.
Councilman Semrau said he would like a caveat that the trolleys are going to
be used for the purpose that is being represented to the city. Councilman
Semrau said keeping the 5 decrepit trolleys would be a disservice to their
legacy. The trolleys should go where they will be restored and used.
Councilman Paulson said giving the restored trolley away is a slap in the
face to the donor. Councilman Semrau reiterated the money was given to
the trolley group to restore the trolley. Councilman Semrau stated it was
always clear the election was to decide the fate of the trolleys. Councilman
Paulson said the donor should be reimbursed. Councilman Semrau said if
the trolley group misrepresented the use of funds, that is unfortunate. It was
not the city that misrepresented anything. At the time, Council stated this
was at the risk of the trolley group.
4. Bill Stifling said the city acquired the Marolt open space in the mid-
1980's. Council made a decision to transfer some of that land to CDOT ~n
exchange for some other land. Some citizens disagreed with that decision
because they felt it was premature. Citizens for a Small Town Entrance got
804 certified signatures on a petition opposing this action. Council decided
to put this issue on the ballot, yes to S-curve; yes to modified direct
alignment. Based on the results of the election, yes to the S-curves, citizens
feel the Marolt land should be returned to the city, Stirling said cooperation
of the whole commumty, the Council and city staff is needed to come up
with a strategy to figure out how to get the land back. Stirling said he looks
forward to participating with Council on transportation solutions.
5. Kip Wheeler repeated his offer to buy 4 trolleys at $2500 to allow
them to be kept together and to be used in an operating system. Wheeler
said Colorado Springs put in a bid to use these trolley cars in an operating
Regular Meeting Aspen Ci.ty Council , November 25, 2002
system and he asked why this bid was ignored. Ed Sadler, asset manager,
told Council Colorado Springs planned on using these as a museum, not in
an operating system.
6. Toni Kronberg said at the December 2~d strategic planning meeting,
she encourages Council to do something about a gondola between the ski
areas. Ms. Kronberg said she has spoken to the Aspen Ski Company, and
there is no money in their capital fund. The Ski Company will pursue this in
the future. Ms. Kronberg said one of the biggest impacts on the highway are
skiers. Ms. Kronberg noted Pitkin County may have to cut their recycling
program. If the county does, she requested the city work with them on
keeping a recycling program and perhaps expanding it to curbside pick up.
Ms. Kronberg asked if the supplemental appropriation on the agenda
includes bleachers for the swimming pool. Council said it does not.
COUNCILMEMBER COMMENTS
1. Councilman Hershey gave out gelt for Hanukah.
2. Councilman Paulson said every time he leaves Aspen, he appreciates
it more when he returns. Councilman Paulson said with the strategic
planning meeting scheduled for 8 hours next week, he hopes Council comes
out of this with a plan to help make Aspen different from other towns.
Councilman Paulson said he would like a commitment from other members
of Council they will work towards keeping Aspen unique. Councilman
Semrau suggested Council bring their vision for Aspen to the strategic
planning meeting.
3. Steve Aitken, golf course director, requested Council approve
negotiation ora contract for sleigh rides on the golf course. Aitken told
Council he has reviewed this with staff, with the Nordic council and the golf
advisory board. The sleigh is proposed to go along the dog trail. It will
operate between 4 and 9 p.m. Council agreed staff should negotiate a
contract for this winter.
4. Mayor Klanderud noted the next RFTA meeting is December 12th and
she would like direction from Council about advertising on the buses,
especially external advertising.

RESOLUTION #113, 2002 c°ntract, Buriingame Infras'tructure Cost
Analysis
Councilman Semrau asked about actually getting the external infrastructure
designed and engineered. Ed 'Sadler, asset manager, said Council wanted
estimates of the cost before they went any further. Councilman Semrau
asked CoUncil rather than spending $27,000 for the estimates, t° hire
someone to design the infrastructure. Mayor Klanderud. asked if this would
conflict with the developer model. Councilman Semrau said it is the city's
responsibility to get the infrastructure to the site. Mayor Klanderud asked if
this would preordain where the development' would go. Councilman Semrau
said he is only talking about infrastructure outside the actual site.
Councilman Semrau said if the city is going to spend $27,000 on an
estimate, they should consider having the actual work done. Councilman
Semrau suggested having staff find out a price to have this firm do the final
Regular Meeting Aspen City Council November 25, 2002
drawings for the infrastructure to the lot, water, sewer, etc., a fixed bid to
finish the engineering.
Councilman Semrau moved to adopt Resolution #113, Series of 2002;
seconded by Councilman Hershey. All in favor, motion carried.

ORDINANCE #38~ SERIES OF 2002 - Truscott PUD Amendment
James Lindt, community development department, told Council this
application comes from the citY's asset management department requesting
approval ora GMQS exemption for essential public facility, a PUD
amendment to the Truscott approval to allow the asset management
8
Regular Meetin~ Aspen City Council November 25~ 2002
department to use the old restaurant space in the Truscott building for office
use for 6 staff. Lindt Said thi~ ~paCe is 900 square feet and Was earmarked
for community meeting space. This was used for construction offices while
the affordable housing was being constructed. Lindt said public office space
does qualify as an essential public facility. Lindt told Council community
development department does not support this application and feels that
general office use is not compatible with the existing use~ of the Truscott
PUD. The current uses serve on-site uses like the recreation. The project
managers take care of projects all over the community, not just on this site.
Lindt noted P&Z recommended Council approve this prOPosal with the
conditions that asset management department come back in 2 years for a
review. P&Z based this on the dearth of office space in town.
Michelle Bonfils, asset management department, stressed this is a temporary
use. Ms. Bonfils explained cOnsolidating functiOns of asset management is a
reason for this relocation. Another reason is overcrowding in current office
locations.
Mayor Klanderud opened the public hearing. There were no comments.
Mayor Klanderud closed the public heating.
Ms. Bonfils said this is temporary move because the existing restaurant
building will be renovated or demolished and rebuilt. There may be some
office space in the civic master plan. Councilman Hershey asked if there
may be a cut back in staff in the asset management department if there are
fewer or smaller projects. Ed Sadler, asset manager, told Council project
managers are paid out of project budgets. If there are fewer projects, there
would be less money and less staff needed.
Mayor Klanderud asked if the Youth Center could be used to house the asset
management staff. Sadler said Council will discuss what this space could be
used for next month. Mayor Klanderud said it troubles her to continue to
expand uses at the golf course. This proposal would increase traffic and
would use housing parking spaces. Councilman Semrau noted housing
money paid for this space and it concerns him this will be used for office
space; it could be used for a housing unit. Councilman Semrau said he
prefers to look for long-term solution. City Manager Steve Barwick said
converting this to a housing umt for only 2 or 3 years does not make
economic sense. Councilman Hershey said he would prefer this office be
9
Regular Meeting Aspen City Council November 25, 2002
located closer to city hall, and the suggestion for using the soon to be ex-
Youth Center is a good one.
Councilman Semrau suggested stafflook at space management for the
employees that will be on site at Truscott and also look at long-term space
requirements at Truscott and what would make economic sense in
converting this to an employee unit.
Councilman Hershey moved to adopt Ordinance #38, Series of 2002, on
second reading; seconded by COuncilman Semrau. Roll call vote:
Councilmembers Hershey, no; Semrau, no; Paulson, no; Mayor Klanderud,
no. Motion NOT carried.
ORDINANCE #39, SERIES OF 2002 - Supplemental Budget
Appropriations
Paul Menter, finance director, noted this ordinance approves $52 million in
supplemental appropriations to bring the total 2002 budget t° $110 million
among all city funds. Menter said sUbtracting interfund transfers brings the
total budget to $95 million. Menter noted the requests are in categories by
fund and the majority of these requests are carry forward AMP requests and
the appropriation of carry forward savings.
Mayor Klanderud opened the public hearing.
Toni Kronberg asked if there is a break down for the Recreation Center
budget. There was supposed to be a separate accounting fOr the ice rink and
for the pool. Council suggested Ms. Kronberg meet with the finance
department on this issue.
Mayor Klanderud closed the Public hearing.
Councilman Hershey moved to adopt Ordinance #39, Series of 2002, on
second reading; seConded by Councilman Semrau. Roll call vote: Paulson,
yes; Semrau, yes; Hershey, yes; Mayor Klanderud, yes. Motion carried.
RESOLUTION #i06, SERIEs OF 2002 ~ BUdget for 2003
RESOLUTION #107, SERIES OF 2002 £ ~iii Levy for 2003
lO
Regular Meeting Aspen City Council , November 25, 2002
Kathleen VonAchen, budget director, pointed out the 2003 revenues are
projected to be $77 million and the expenditures to be $72 million to leave a
positive cash flow of $5 million. Ms. VonAchen said expenditures in 2002
were at a higher level due to capital expenditures, $42 million in projects
like the recreation center and Truscott housing. Ms. Vor~Achen noted the
2003 budget provides each fund meeting their target operating balance. The
projected revenue of $77 million includes $18 million in transfers from other
city funds, leaving actual project revenues at $58 million. The sales tax
revenue estimate has been reduced 5% from current fiscal years. The
general fund departmental revenues were kept flat.
Ms. VonAchen said of the revenues, property tax is 7%, departmental
revenues 8%, RETT 9%, enterprise fund revenues 24%, other revenues 22%,
sales tax 21%, capital projects 8%. The operating budget is 61% of the city
budget, 1 I% debt and 28% capital projects. Ms. VonAchen reminded
Council the only allowed increased in the 2003 budget was labor at 4%.
There were only two supplemental requests approved; economic
sustainability at $50,000 and the detox charges at $16,000. The 2003 budget
is reduced by 3.5 full time employees. Ms. VonAchen noted the debt
payments are decreasing in 2003 because the revenue bond for Ruedi will be
paid off.
Ms. VonAchen told Council the city's mill levy has been 5.401 mills for
many years. This produces about $4.25 million in property tax revenues.
This is based on the assessed valuation from the county. Staffis
recommending the mill levy for 2003 be increased to 5.442 mills, which
includes .041 mills, which the city can levy to recover prior year's refunded
taxes of $32,000. Cities are allowed recover these refunded property taxes.
This is a temporary increase only.
Mayor Klanderud opened the public hearing.
Toni Kronberg said if there is extra money in the city budget, the ice arena
should open at the same time as the rest of the recreation center. Mayor
Klandemd pointed out Ordinance #45 transfers money from the Wheeler and
Daycare fund to the ARC. Mayor Klanderud said the city ~s required to keep
cash balances in each of the funds in order to keep the city in a healthy
financial position.
Mayor Klandemd closed the public hearing.
11
Regular Meeting Aspen CiW. Council November 25, 2002
Councilman Hershey moved to approve Resolutions #106 and 107, Series of
2002; seconded by Councilman Semrau. All in favor, motion carried.
RESOLUTION #112, SERIES OF 2002 - Burlingame Parcel D COWOP
Joyce Ohlson, community development department, told Council the
Burlingame Parcel D COWOP met 3 times and worked hard to meet the
goals ofa COWOP. The task force feels this plan meets the goals set out by
the COWOP. The proposal shows 40 housing units on this parcel. Ms.
Ohlson noted this Site is narrow, which creates access difficulties. The
topography is also difficult. The surrounding land uses could create impacts
on residents. The capacity of the AABC roads may not be able to handle
additional trips; the roads are substandard, there are not sidewalks. COWOP
identified issues they wanted forwarded on to Council and any developer of
this parcel.
Leslie Bethel, Clarion Associates, presented the site plan with 40 units, 40
garages spaces under the units, and 30 surface parking spaces. Ms. Bethel
said this site is a sliver of land behind commercial spaces and at the foot of
Deer Hill. It was a challenge to plan a small piece of land and have a
community. This was achieved by 8-unit clusters of stacked 600 and 700
square foot one-bedroom units. The access is from Venter. The committee
wanted to preserve as much land for open space, a visual buffer and to have
solar orientation. Ms. Bethel told Council the Committee planned for 70
parking spaces because they do not want the parking to spill over onto the
ABC.
Mayor Klanderud said Council should know how much the traffic mitigation
to the county would cost. Ms. Ohlson said the county's estimate is $100,000
based on trip generation. Councilman Hershey entered a letter from John
McBride into the record. Councilman Paulson asked about reserving
parking spaces for car sharing. Ms. Bethel said two spaces will be reserved
for car sharing cars.
Ms. Ohlson said the next step is for Council to accept the recommendation
of COWOP, staff will then put out request for proposals from development
teams. The recommendations in ResolutiOn #112 will be forwarded to the
development teams. Ms. Ohlson told Council there is one member of the
COWOP task force on the selection team for the developers. The COWOP
12
Regular Meeting Aspen Ci,ty Council November 25~ 2002
task force will be invited to attend the presentation of the finalists. Ms.
Ohlson said Bill Lucks and Jim Finch both would like to be on the selection
ream, the other members are JeffWoods, Tim Semrau, Ed Sadler, a member
from the housing board.
Councilman Semrau moved to adopt Resolution #112, Series of 2002;
seconded by Councilman Hershey.
Councilman Semrau said Councilman McCabe would like changes to the
resolution that the land dedicated to open space should be paid for out of the
open space fund and that "costs should be considered and quantified in
exceeding ADA requirements". Mayor Klanderud said discussion of open
space funds should go through the Open Space board first. Mayor
Klanderud said at the point the developer is selected, the budget needs to be
clear. Mayor Klanderud said she does not want the project to escalate in
costs. Councilman Semrau said he would agreed to vote in favor of the
resolution with the understanding that the open space payments will be
addressed.
All in favor, motion carried.
JUNIOR GOLF PURCHASE OF BUILDING
Ernie Fyrwald told Council they would like to revisit the original agreement,
which is Junior Golf purchasing the building for $200,000. Junior Golf has
come up with the funds; this will not longer be financed. They are ready to
go. This money will go back into the golf course building. Council said the
agreement should be drawn up and come back for approval.
STATEMENT OF PEACEFUL RESOLUTION IN ,IRAQ
Councilman Hershey requested this be postponed until the next regular
meeting in order to give Council time to read and research the resolution.
Councilman Hershey moved to put this resolution on the December 9
agenda; seconded by Councilman Semrau. All in favor, motion carried.
Councilman Semrau moved to adjourn at 8:05 p.m.; seconded by
Councilman Paulson. All in favor, motion carried.
