She was adv ised the proper procedure would be to obtain petitions for abatement and 'refund and process the same, at which time they would be given careful consideration. The Commissioners were advised that consideration is being given to the formatinn of a regional planning commission to cover that portion of the Roaring Fork River drainage located in Pitkin, Eagle and (Garfield counties, plus an area located westerly ofGlenwood Springs as far as Mitchell Creek. It was stated that each county was requested to designate two representatives, and each town or city to designate one 1 representative.

Mr. Richard Fitzgerald inquired abo p(the Commissioners' decision concerning sale of tax sales 1 certificates on the Minnehaha Mining Claim, and was advised that the certificates were available upon payment of all taxes, interest and penalties. He stated that the amount accumulated was probably in excess of the I lvalue of the mining claims; that he had heretofore purchased one or more certificates from a former County Treasurer, with the understanding that the certificates purchased were all that were outstanding against the property , but requested that he be given sixty days within which to determine whether he would purchase the additional certificates or not. The commissioners thereupon on motion duly made and seconded, directed that Mr. Fitzgerald be given the first opportunity to purchase said certificates for a period of sixty days from jI this date, in consideration of the fact that he had already purchased some certificates on the same property. Mr. D. R. C.

Following discussion the County Attorney was instructed to revise a proposed h easement for that purpose. Mr. Luke Anthony appeared and inquired about procedures for relocation of the raodway extending southerly of Galena Street. He was advised this roadway apparently existed by usage only; that in the event he desired to proceed with his subdivision plat which would include a proper roadway, the County would consider the passage of a resolution declaring the existing roadway abandoned in favor of a relocated roadway dedicated to public use, provided it did not deprive any person of any access to his property, who was now being served by the existing roadway. It was suggested that Mr. Anthony submit a subdivision plat prepared in accordance with County standards to the Planning Commission for approval which would include the proposed relocated roadway. Mr. Clinton Stewart on behalf of the Pitkin County Hospital Board advised that the Board was giving serious consideration to the necessity of converting to cash 100 shares of stock in Ideal Cement Company, I donated by Ruth H. Brown, such conversion to cash being considered because of the fact that common stock is not a recognized legalinvestment under the statutes. The Commissioners indicated that at the present time it appeared inadvisable to convert this stock to cash and the County Attorney was directed to contact Mrs.Brown �/ ][donor of the stock to determine whether it was her intention that it be retained as stock or converted, in mak- 7 ing the donation. In the event it was determined to be her intention that the stock not be converted, then 7 the Commissioners authorized that the same be retained in stock formuntil the money is needed in the future for t the hospital construction program, or until it was determined advisable to convert the same to Bash. The Commissioners discussed with Mr. James Markalunas, Building Inspector, complaints that had been received concerning escaping sewer gas in the area of the mobile home park recently constructed by Mr. Maddalone and Mr. Strong north of Aspen, and Mr. Markalunas advised he had made some investigation and was not aware of the basis for the complaint, but that he would make further investigation concerning the problem. Mr. Sardy reported that the A;crport Improvement Porgram scheduled for 1963 had been completed to the satisfaction of the Federal Aviation Authority and apparently everything was in order for final approval by that Authority. It was reported by the County Engineer that the contractor had exceeded the construction time in connection with work performed, and that such delay was excusable, and recommended that any liquidated damage penalties be waived, whereupon on motion duly made and seconded the following resolution was unanimously adopted: RESOLUTION WHEREAS, Corn Construction Company has completed the construction contract for the improvements on the Pitkin County Airport, and exeeeded the time prescribed for contract by approximately fifteen days and WHEREAS, the delay in completion of the contract was directly attributable to additional work ordered by the County consisting of construction on the lower end of the runway, paving on the parking apron and seal coat, all of which constitute excusable delay within the meaning of the contract, NOW, THEREFORE, BE 'IT RESOLVED by the Board of County Commissioners of Pitkin County, Colorado, that such delay is hereby excused and that any and all liquidated penalties prescribed by the specifications or contract are hereby waived.

Disucssion occurred concerning joint meeting of the Planning and Zoning Commission and the County Commissioners, and it was decided to defer that until a special meeting could be called to be attended by Mr. Trafton Bean. The application of Mrs. Tabby L. Theodore, doing business as Redstone Village Store for a package liquor license was considered. Report was made that based upon previous inspection, it had been determined by the Commissioners that the premises in question were previously licensed for a package liquor store; that said premises are at Redstone, Colorado, approximately sixteen miles from Carbondale, near the inter- section of Colorado Highway No. 133 and a road leading from that highway through the town of Redstone; that the premises are diagonally across the street from the Redstone Lodge with approximately thirty -six rooms and would be the nearest outlet to the Redstone Castle, which rooms are rented from day to day to the transient public. The Commissioners further determined and found that the Redstone Lodge has a malt, vinous and spirituous liquor license for sale of liquor by the drink; that at the present time there are two package liquor stores in the Redstone community, which remain open as trade indicates and are closed from time to time the winter months; that there is in addition a restaurant liquor license at the Townhouse; that the distance from the premises sought to be licenses would be between two and three blocks from the nearest out- let; that there are no didewalks nor street lights and pedestrians traveling from the Redstone Lodge to the nearest liquor store would necessarily walk on the road; that the premises sought to be licensed have here- tofore been licensed. The License application and publication of notice of hearing thereon were read and the Chairman opened the public hearing on the question of issuance of said license thereon. Mrs. Nelle White was present to object to the issuance of the license and submitted a letter setting forth her objections, primarily that the needs of the inhabitants of Redstone would be adequately served by existing outlets. The Chairman announced he had been contacted by Mrs. George White, another package liquor store licensee at R whose objections to the issuance of the new license were primarily that two package liquor stores are enough; that the people sponsoring the license are from out of the state. Inquiry was made of the applicant whether the owners of the three way license at the Redstone Inn had a financial interest in the premises or the license to be issued to the applicant, and it was stated that the license at the Redstone Inn was issued to Redstone Development Corporation whereas the financial aid to the applicant had been by way of cosigning or endorsement of notes at the First National Bank of Glenwood Springs on behalf of Glenwood Hot Springs Company, a separate corporation. The applicant, Mrs. Theodore, stated in support of the application that it was desired primarily to serve the needs and convenience of the transient public staying at the Redstone Lodge and Castle; that the other liquor outlets could not conveniently serve pedestrian patrons and that property; that the license is intended primarily for the summer influ$ of visitors; that such patrons walking down an unlighted narrow street in Redstone to the other outlets would incur some risk; that they had numerous requests every day for liquor at the store, that the other outlets are engaged in other businesses and the sale of liquor is merely incident to such businesses, and would be so intended with connection with the applicant's store business. No other persons were present to object or comment on issuance of said license. Thereafter, following further discussion and consideration, and on motion duly made and seconded the following resolution was unanimously adopted: WHEREAS there is a large influs of summer visitors at Redstone, particularly those staying at the Redstone Inn and Castle and by reason of distance and location the existing package liquor store outlets are not convenient or readily accessible; are operated in conjection with other businesses; are closed from time to time, AND WHEREAS the only objection to the issuance of said license comes from other licensees, and WHEREAS the Commissioners find and determine that the reasonable needs add requirements of the general public in the Redstone area would be better served by the issuance of an additional package liquor license and the issuance of the same is reasonably necessary, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that a County licensee shall be issued to the applicant, Mrs. Tabby Theodore upon her payment of fees and otherwise complying with the liquor licensing requirements. Mr. A. J. Kane discussed with the commissioners the matter of back unpaid taxes on inventory on personal property of the premises known as the "Molly Gibson ", which had heretofore been operated under different names and by other proprietors. Mr. Kane stated that there was a substantial accumulation of back taxes that had not been collected, probably in an amount exceeding the reasonable value of the fixtures yet remaining; that all of the inventory and many of the fixtures previously assessed and upon which taxes were imposed have been removed, worn out, destroyed or lost; that the assessments in various instances were arbitrary and were made by the assessor without examination of the articles assessed, and further that the said taxes were excessive. It was suggested to Mr. Kane that he obtain further documentation as to the basis on which he seeks abatement as to back taxes on said property, and discuss the matter again with the Commissioners, if he cared (' to do so. Miss Marty Steinmetz appeared before the Commissioners con cerning road matters, suggesting a better warning system be provided as to a narrow place onthe Castle Creek road apposite the Four Seasons Club and the Commissioners advised they would look into it. She further stated that the mining development in con- junction with the Richmond Hill group was causing some nuisance by virtue of noise and also that trailers were illegally parked there. The Commissioners advised they would not be in position to interfere with the mining operation because of the present noise situation, but would investigate concerning the unauthorized use of trailers there. She further mentioned the fact that water drained from the mining operations was likely to pollute the City of Aspen water supply, and was advised that the City of Aspen would have the primary responsibility and jurisdiction over this. She further inquired about the matter of the County's widening and extending the Conundrum Creek road up to her property, in view of the increased development there. She was advised that until additional right -of -way is obtained, it will not be possible for the Commissioners to do additional work or snow removal. A plat of "Starwood Two Subdivision" by Starwood Land Corporation was presented for approval, from whi_,;h it appeared the same had been approved by the Pitkin County Zoning Commissioners as an extension of the first Stanwood Subdivision; that the same is located in Lots 15, 17, 18 and 19, Section 26 and Lots 1, 2 and 3, Section 35, T. 9 S., R. 85 W. of the 6th P.M. After consideration, the plat was unanimously approved by the Commissioners on the basis that the county would not undertake maintenance of road shown therein unless and until the same were constructed to County standards and the Commissioners determined that there were sufficient users to provide economic justification therefor. The Commissioners discussed with Mr. Edgar Stanton a request for rezoning in the golf course area west of Aspen, and it was suggested that the matter be considered after a formal petition where the Company plat or maps were provided. The commissioners discussed with Mr. Soderberg of the U. S. Bureau of Reclamation the proposed ir reconstruction of the County rand at the Ruedi Dam Site and above, and Mr. Soderberg was advised that the Commissioners considered that the increased traffic would certainly result from the construction of the Ruedi Dam and Reservoir, together with water diversion works and additional roads in the Frying Pan area would necessitate a paved road in the near future. He stated this matter had been considered in the Bureau of I Reclamation, and no means had been devised whereby the road could be paved, and suggested that request be made to the Forest Service for the work. The Commissioners advised they would consider the matter further, and Mr. Soderberg advised that the Bureau of Reclamation would make formal written request concerning the road. Mr. Robert Kopp appeared before the Commissioners with appraisal in the sum of Eight hundred fifty dollars ($850.00) as to the Harpoon and Excelsior Lode Mining Claims, U.S.M.S. No. 12691, and requested that the same be advertised for sale at public auction as required by law. The Commissioners after consideration and investigation of the location, and after determing that said property to the extent owned by the County is not and will not be required for public use, directed that notice be advertised in the Aspen Times for the sale at public auction of the County's interest in said mining claims. p A letter was received from Mr. D. R.C. Brown on behalf of the Aspen Skiing Corporation advising they would prefer to pay rental annually for the easement over County owned mining claims on Ajax Mountain, and after discussion, this was approved and payment was authorized to be made on a calendar year basis, the due date to be on or before January 15 of each year commencing with the year 1965. An extensive discussion occurred with reference to County held tax sales certificates and the validity of the same, and what should be done with respect to the same. After discussion, and on motion duly made and seconded, the following resolution was unanimously adopted: RESOLUTION WHEREAS Pitkin County holds many thousand ancient tax sales certificates, some of which are lost, many of which describe nonexistent property; and all, or practically all of which are void and uncollectible either because of the issuance of tax deeds on other certificates; the failure to designate a lawful newspaper', for the county in the year of issue; defects appearing on the face thereof or in connection with the manner of issuance, and for various other reasons, ACCORDINGLY, BE IT RESOLVED that all tax sales certificates held by Pitkin County for sales for the year 1932 and all certificates prior thereto are hereby directed to be cancelled and extinguished as uncollectible tax sale certificates held by Pitkin County. The Chairman announced that the application for a restaurant liquor license..by.stuart A. Mace, doing business as Toklat in Aspen located at the corner of Durant and Monarch streets South Aspen was 1 scheduled for public hearing at this meeting. It was further announced that the Commissioners had previously inspected thepremises and made findings that the premises are constructed primarily for a restaurant operation that they are surrounded by numerous lodges, motels and other transient accommodations; that there is no liquor outlet in the immediate neighborhood thereof; that the restaurant and the liquor license if granted would be primarily for the purpose of serving such transient guests, particularly at times of great influs during the skiing season. Thereupon, the Chairman announced that public hearing was opened on the application. The � application and supporting letters of reference were read, and comments were invited. No one appeared to object, protest or file any remonstrances against the issuance of said license. The application states he had a substantial investment in the premises, that its success as a restaurant, which was hie primary purpose, was dependent upon the issuance of a liquor license; that he had heretofore operated a restaurant at Aspen with a liquor license, and was experienced and competent to handle the business, that he was adequately financed for that purpose; that with the large influs of transient population, particularly during the skiing II season, it was necessary that additional restaurant and liquor outlets be provided. Thereafter on motion duly made and seonded the following resolution was unanimously adopted: WHEREAS the Board ofCounty Commissioners after inspection and investigation have determined that the reasonable requirements of the area dnd neighborhood will be better served by the issuance of a restaurant liquor license to Stuart Mace, doing business as Toklat In Aspen, and the reasonable requirements of the neighborhood require the issuance of such license, NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that there shall be issued a restaurant license to the applicant Stuart Mace for the premises designated Toklat In Aspen, located at the corner of Durant and Monarch Streets, South Aspen, Colorado. The Commissioners after discussion directed that the wages of Harvey Hale on the County Road Crew be raised from $2.00 to $3.00 per hour and the wages of John Bandy be raised from $2.00 to $3.00 per hour effective as of July 1, 1964, because of their services as equipment operators, subject to adjustment in 1 connection with snow removal. ;i The Chairman announced that advertisement had been published in the Aspen Times that the Board of I !, County Commissioners would sit as a board of equalization on this date, and thereupon announce that the meeting of the Pitkin County Board of 'Equalization was called to order and inquired if anyone present desired to present any matters before said board. no matters were presented and the hearing of the board of equalization was recessed until the next regular meeting of the Board of County Commissioners at the hour of ten o'clock in the forenoon. ere being no further business the Board adjourned. i ATS -�L APPROVER ✓,Z � � `�� t-.

She was advised that the same right -of -way problem existed in that certain portions of the area the County's right -of -way was apparently - insufficient to permit widening to a degree that would allow proper maintenance of snow removal. She advised that many of the property owners 41.11. in the area were very anxious to have the County proceed with improvements and to provide snow removal atfd than some of these residents were willing to dedicate parts of their land for highway right -of -way. It was decided, that investigation should be made to determine exactly what right of way the county has at the present time in this area and further to determine what right -of -way would be required in order for road improvement to be accomplished. The Commissioners further made another examination of the area. Request was made on behalf of Mr. Harry Williams for some action by the County Commissioners to assist him in clearing title to certain small lots located in Block 33, Hallam's Addition to Aspen which were apparently omitted from the tax rolls during the 1930's and have not since been taxed. It was determined that' the only action that could be taken.would be to request that the County Assessor back access such lots and include them on the tax rolls in the future. Thereafter discussion occurred between the Commissioners and Mr. Edward Morse of the Pitkin County Planning Commission concerning the planning and zoning program of the County and the activities of the Commission. Mr. Clinton Stewart and Mr. Charles E. Worth, again appeared before the Commissioners requesting reconveyance or vacation of the roadway which was previously conveyed by Mr. and Mrs. Worth to the County, but was not accepted by the County in the Red Butte Subdivision. They were again advised that upon proper Deed being presented that would not jeopardize access on the platted road or streets in the subdivision by any individual, the County would act favorably on the request for vacation or reconveyance. Mr. Jack Kane appeared before the Commissioners concerning personal property taxes assessed against the furniture, fixtures and inventory of the "Molly Gibson" restaurant and bar, which had heretofre been used by other businesses. Mr. Kane was advised that the Commissioners did not have authority to compromise or reduce taxes and that it would be recommended that the Treasurer distrain on this property to enforce collection of taxes due thereon. He was advised that if there was evidence that the property was erroneously assessed or taxes erroneously imposed, then a petition for abatement should be presented. Mr. Tom Golden, a property owner along Snowmass Creek, made complaint about fence damage allegedly !, caused in connection with road improvements and maintenance by the County. He was advised that the Commissioners would investigate this matter. A Bill from Leo Newberg for cleaning road oil from his car was considered and denied. Mr. Lorain R. Herwick, Building Custodian, discussed with the Commissioners certain improvements required in the Courthouse, including work that should be done in the basement because of floot.settlement. He was advised this would be investigated and was requested to make further investigation and report back to the Commissioners. He was authorized to have a hot water heater installed made necessary primarily because of the new photographic equipment in the County Clerk's office by Grand and Company, the low bidder at a cost of $187.00 Discussion occurred concerning housing for the fire fighting equipment recently placed by the County through the Sheriff's office in Redstone, in that the building previously thought to be available is not available, and construction of a structure to house this equipment was now being considered. The County agreed to contribute $100.00 toward the cost of this construction. The Commissioners discussed with Mrs. Peggy Rowland, County Superintendent of Schools, certain matters concerning the school financing in the County. It was decided that at such time as the County was preparing to extend the mill levy, a detailed discussion should be had with Mr. Earl Kelly concerning the County Mill levy for school purposes. there bei furthr busiiass the Board adjourned.
