DE{ 2 0 199/ RE: UTE PARK Dear Kim. On behalf of the Applicant I would like to request a time extension of 120 days for the one year perioa of the Conceptual Submission approval. The reasons for this request are two fold. The financing of the project has become more complicated than previously envisioned. The split program of affordable housing with free market housing has been the complication. This has now been worked out and the financing is in place. The second issue has been the program for the deed restricted units. The Applicant has been uncertain as to the marketability of two bedroom sale .' nits as submitted at the Conceptual level. Since the sales of the t illiams Woods deed restricted units, this uncertainty has been \, einforced by the fact that the two bedroom units did not sell while a waiting list was created for the three bedroom units. As a result of this observation, the units were reconfigured to three bedroom. We would appreciate your cooperation in the matter of this request as all issues have been resolved and the project is currently in a position to proceed swiftly. Sincerely, Thomas G.

RECITALS 1. RFTA and the Aspen Skiing Company have entered into a contract entitled "Roaring Fork Transit Agency - Aspen Skiing Company Long Term Transit Service Contract", dated as of November 1, 1991, referred to herein as the "Long Term Transit Service Contract" and incorporated herein by this reference. 2. Pursuant to the Long Term Transit Service Contract, RFTA will provide long term transit services for the benefit of the Aspen Skiing Company and the Aspen Skiing company will pay a transit fee for such services as defined in the Long Term Transit Service Contract. Since it is anticipated that funds in addition to those to be paid by the Aspen Skiing Company may be required to pay the entire cost of the service, the County, the Town, and the City shall each be responsible for paying one-third of the shortfall, which is referred to in the Long Term Transit Service Contract and herein as "Supplemental Public Funding". 3. The parties hereto recognize that the potential adverse consequences of an ineffective system of transporting skiers among the ski areas operated by the Aspen Skiing company constitutes a substantial risk to the public interest and, accordingly, the public interest will best be served if the responsibility for the effective and efficient transportation of skiers remains vested with RFTA, and further, that the commitments of the County, the Town, and the City to provide Supplemental Public Funding are necessary to assure that RFTA can continue to provide such services. 4. The county, the Town, and the city are authorized by reason of Article XIV, Section 18, of the Colorado constitution, Section 29-1-203, Colorado Revised statutes, and their respective home rule charters to enter into contracts to provide for the joint exercise of any function, service, or facility lawfully authorized to each. 5. The County, the Town, and the city desire to set forth herein binding commitments between themselves and to RFTA to provide Supplemental Public Funding and to set forth herein the methodology for accomplishing and assuring such funding. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and obligations herein, the parties agree as follows: (a, . I'.,.,," ~\.' I) , 1',',' ~ '~ . 1. Commitment to Fund. The County, the Town, and the City each hereby agree to annually pay to RFTA and appropriate, subject to available revenues, their one-third (1/3) of the Supplemental Public Funding as defined and described in the Long Term Transit Service Contract and as projected on Exhibit "A" attached hereto. Such payments and appropriations shall be in addition to and shall supplement revenues collected by the County sales tax authorized by Pitkin County Resolution 29 (Series of 1983) and allocated to RFTA pursuant to that Amended Intergovernmental Agreement for Transit Agency between the City and County made and entered into on June 9, 1986, which agreement is incorporated herein by this reference. 2. Timinq of Fundinq. The County, the Town, and the city shall each undertake and accomplish, on an annual basis, such actions as may be required to assure that Supplemental Public Funding is authorized and available for payment to RFTA in accordance with a budget and operating plan for skier transportation services to be adopted on an annual basis by RFTA. 3. Lonq Term Transit service Contract. Reference is hereby made to paragraph "9" of the Long Term Transit Service Contract which provides as follows: "9. Supplemental Public Fundinq Conditions. A. The parties acknowledge that the ASC Base Transit Fee payable throughout the full term of this Contract is not currently projected to cover RFTA's full operating and capital costs of providing the Base Transit Requirement. Therefore, a contribution of supplemental public funding by local governments, as set forth on Exhibit "B-l" , is required to defray the portion of RFTA's total projected cost of providing the Base Transit Requirement not covered by ASC's Base Transit Fee. B. This Contract shall be contingent upon the execution of an agreement by and between the City of Aspen, the County of Pitkin, and the Town of Snowmass Village, Colorado (hereafter "Participating Local Governments") and RFTA for the provision to RFTA of the annual supplemental public funding required to provide transit services during the Contract Per iod. Thereafter, if one or more of the Participating Local Governments shall not contribute its contemplated share of such supplemental public funding, and such share is not assumed and paid by the other Participating Local Governments and/or ASC (it 2 a f~. ".'.It., ~;, \ ",' 'I) j" \\\~, being understood that neither ASC nor RFTA is obligated to assume and pay any such share), RFTA may at its option terminate this Contract upon 30 days written notice to ASC and the Participating Local Governments. C. It is understood that such Participating Local Governments will require, as a condition to providing supplemental public funding, that capital cost reductions (including state and federal capital grants) realized by RFTA for vehicles to be used under this Contract shall inure exclusively to the benefit of RFTA and said Participating Local Governments as they shall agree, and shall not result in a reduction of the Base Transit Fee payable by ASC." 4. Effect of Federal Grants on Supplemental Public Fundinq. 4.1 Exhibit "A" attached hereto sets forth the amount of Supplemental Public Funding to be provided annually by each of the Participating Local Governments during the term of the Long Term Transit Service Contract. In effect, the Supplemental Public Funding contemplated by this Agreement is required to help defray projected capital expenses for the purchase of five (5) new buses in 1992 and five (5) new buses in 1995. 4.2 The parties anticipate that any federal grants obtained to assist in purchasing such new buses should result in a reduction of Supplemental Public Funding. If, during the term of the Long Term Transit Service Contract, such federal grants are obtained, the following methodology shall be used to reduce or refund the Supplemental Public Funding contributions made by the Participating Local Governments: 4.2. a. Exhibit "B" attached hereto sets forth the methodology for determining the prorated "Annual Vehicle Use charge -10 New Buses" attributable to the Long Term Transit Service Contract. The local share of such federal grants shall be determined by subtracting the federal share from the total cost of the buses. For the example demonstrated .in Exhibit "B", the federal share is assumed to be 65% of the total cost of 10 new buses and the local share is assumed to be 35%. The local share is amortized over ten (10) years at an assumed interest rate of 8%. The annual debt service is prorated at the rate of 47.98% (the percentage of mileage attributable to the skier shuttle). 3 '~I I,i', , \'\ \' .<'., 'e',,' '", ~\ \ (I. '<~. . 4.2.b. Following the methodology set forth on Exhibit "B", Exhibit "A" shall be revised to incorporate the reduced "Annual Vehicle Use Charge - 10 New Buses", resulting from federal grants. 4.2.c. Following the methodology set forth in paragraphs "4.a." and "4.b." above, the potential effect that federal grants could have upon Supplemental Public Funding is demonstrated by the example on Exhibit "C". The scenario reflected on Exhibit "C" incorporates the reduced "Annual Vehicle Use Charge - 10 New Buses" ($59,288 - see Note "A") derived from Exhibit "B" and assumes that 10 new buses are purchased in the 1992/1993 Transit Year. By incorporating the reduced amount of $59,288, Supplemental Public Funding would be significantly reduced in years 1993 - 1995, and would no longer be required by 1996 (See Note "B"). The participating Local Governments would contribute a combined total of $125,117 from 1992 through 1995. In 1996, the Ski Co Annual Payment would begin to defray all operating and capital expenditures and begin to generate surplus revenues for the balance of the Long Term Transit Service Contract. 4.2.d. Any surplus revenues in a Transit Year resulting from federal grants for such new buses shall be used to refund on a pro rata basis such sums of supplemental Public Funding already contributed to RFTA. The Participating Local Governments shall be repaid from such surplus revenues for such Transit Year until such time that the participating local governments have been fully repaid for all Supplemental Public Funding contributions previously made. The balance of any such surplus revenues after the Participating Local Governments have been repaid in full for their Supplemental Public Funding contributions previously made, shall be used by RFTA to defray expenditures as RFTA shall determine necessary. 5. Bindinq Effect. The effectiveness and enforceability of 'the terms hereof with respect to the County, the Town, and the city are contingent upon ratification and authorization by the Board of County Commissioners, the Snowmass Village Town council, and the Aspen City Council. By executing this Agreement, the parties acknowledge and represent to one another that all procedures necessary to contract and execute this Agreement have been performed and that the person signing for each party has been duly authorized to do so. 4 " . l,r"I"", \, -,',.
