The Commissioners briefly reviewed the case and then stated that whoever becomes owner of the subdivision will be required to file a new Subdivision Improvements Agreement, with new collateral, and will have to make provisions (such as a Homeowners' Association) for maintenance of the subdivision.

As would be expected, the site is mostly located in the flood plain of the Big Thompson River. This is not a problem, since the park and recreational type land use proposed is consistent with the existence of the flood plain, provided that no large structures are built which would be sub- ject to damage by the flood or which would cause a blocking of the flood waters.

The 1972 Park, Recreation, and Open Space Plan for the City also recommends that the area be included in the greenbelt and open space program. "At the present time this immediate area has the City-Ft.

The City will also begin development of the 32 acre City-County property approximately one- fourth mile to the east as the City's Centennial Park. Thus, the area in question is one additional link in the total open space system in the Big Thompson River Basin. Finally, Dr. Ron Harden of Loveland has prepared an extensive photographic program for the Foothills Audubon Society which vividly outlines the natural aspects of the area in question.

SECTION 208 OF THE FEDERAL WATER POLLUTION CONTROL ACT, AS AMENDED: The question of whether or not the Larimer-Weld Region should seek "208" water quality management planning designation was discussed by the COG Board at its November 22 retreat. At that time, it was determined that the members of the Larimer-Weld Subcommittee for the South Platte River Basin Water Qual- ity Management Study should hold a meeting with representatives from EPA, State Health Department and the U.S. Corps of Engineers to see if that com- mittee had a recommendation on the seeking of "208" designation. A meeting was held on December 16, 1974, in the auditorium of the Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District office building, Loveland, and there were 20 persons in attendance at that meeting. Mr. Paul Ferraro, Chief, State and Local Planning, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, indicated that it was his feeling that the Larimer-Weld Region would rank rather low priority-wise in seeking such designation. EPA priority areas are as follows: First Priority Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas (areas with a city over 50,000 population in 1970) Second Priority Energy areas (e.g. , oil shale area in western Colorado) Third Priority Recreation areas (Larimer-Weld Region does not fit this priority according to Ferraro) Fourth Priority Non-Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas (such as Larimer-Weld Region) -49- Parenthetically, the Larimer-Weld Region is not precluded from seeking "208" designation; however, it was made abundantly clear that the Larimer- Weld Region did not stand too much of a chance of receiving "208" designation. It was also understood at the December 16 meeting that, in the event that the Larimer-Weld Region did not receive "208" planning designation, the Corps of Engineers, in its current Land and Water Resources Study, would be essen- tially performing "208" planning for this Region. It appears, based on conversations with members of the Larimer-Weld Subcommittee for the South Platte River Basin Water Quality Management Study and local government officials, that this Region should not seek "208" designation, and, furthermore, if the Region does not seek "208" designation, then the Region should make very clear to the Corps of Engineers that the Larimer-Weld COG wishes to be involved as follows: 1. Selection of the engineering consulting firm that the Corps will retain to undertake "208" planning. 2. Serve as the lead contact agency in the Region on the "208" planning study. 3. Reserve the right for final review of the Corps' study to the COG Governing Board. It is the staff's recommendation that the Larimer-Weld COG not seek "208" planning designation; and, furthermore, it is recommended that the Corps of Engineers undertake the "208" study and that the following stipulations be incorporated in a communication to the Corps: 1. The Corps agrees that the Larimer-Weld Regional Council of Governments shall participate in, and give its final approval of, the selection of the engineering consulting firm to be retained by the Corps to under- take "208" planning in the Larimer-Weld Region. 2. The Corps shall recognize the Larimer-Weld Regional Council of Governments as the lead contact agency in the Region on the "208" planning study. 3. The Corps shall reserve to the COG Governing Board the right for final review of its study. Although Board members have already received a copy of the booklet titled "The Challenge and Opportunity of Water Quality Management Planning: Questions and Answers About Section 208 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, as Amended," prepared by the National Association of Regional Councils, the staff is taking the liberty of enclosing another copy of this booklet (en- closed with Board members' agendas only). ACTION ON AGENDA ITEM 30: -50- 31. ESTABLISHMENT OF A LARIMER-WELD REGIONAL HUMAN RESOURCES COMMITTEE: The COG Human Resources Committee chaired by Larimer County Commissioner William Lopez will make a report to the Board on the establishment of an expanded Human Resources Committee. The proposed Bylaws for the new Human Resources Committee are attached as Appendix A. These Bylaws, if accepted by the Board, will be placed on the February 5, 1975, COG Governing Board agenda for final action. If these Bylaws are accepted, it will also be necessary to appoint a nominating committee, which will submit nominations at the February 5 meeting. ACTION ON AGENDA ITEM 31: APPOINTMENT OF NOMINATING COMMITTEE: 32. ESTABLISHMENT OF THE LARIMER-WELD AREA AGENCY ON AGING COMMITTEE: The COG Committee on Aging chaired by Harry Ashley, Weld County Commissioner, will make a report on the findings at the meeting between his committee and the Larimer-Weld AAA officers on January 6, 1975. A copy of the proposed Bylaws for the new Larimer-Weld Area Agency on Aging Committee is enclosed as Appendix B. If the COG Governing Board accepts these Bylaws, they will be placed on the February 5, 1975, agenda for final action. Also, if these Bylaws are accepted, it will be necessary to appoint a nominating committee. ACTION ON AGENDA ITEM 32: APPOINTMENT OF NOMINATING COMMITTEE: 33. RURAL HIGHWAY PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION DEMONSTRATION PROGRAM: Summary of Federal Program Guidelines: The Federal Highway Administrator and the Urban Mass Transportation Administra- tor have issued a two-page summary of guidelines, which is excerpted below. The important portions of the guidelines spell out the purpose, eligibility, funding, project selection criteria and deadline. A. Objective The purpose is to ". . .encourage the development, improve- ment and use of public mass transportation systems. . . within rural areas. . . ." Not only is the program in- tended to increase mobility, but it is also to "encour- age the various agencies which provide transportation or social services to develop a coordinated approach to the organization and financing of public transporta- tion." The results of this program will be developed ". . .into a useful guide for rural areas needing public transportation" and will become the basis for future national programs. -51- •r B. Eligibility Applicants may be either "a public agency or nonpro- fit public purpose organization, preferably with State or areawide responsibilities. . . ." C. Funding During the demonstration period, which will be at least one year and possibly two years, funding could be 100 percent federal. The demonstration period might be extended further, but the program must not depend on future direct federal funding for continuation. D. Selection Criteria Project selection criteria include consideration of innovation; commitment of all levels of government to participate; likelihood of continuation; realism and prudence; quality of monitoring and evaluation and ability of system to adapt; commitment of other agen- cies to purchase, share or use the areawide service as appropriate; quality of demand estimation; recogni- tion of needs of economically deprived rural people; ® appropriateness of service as compared with forecast demand; service to elderly and handicapped; compati- bility with existing public and private transport; utilization of existing rural services; management capability; and promotional techniques. E. Deadline The deadline for submission of proposals to the State Department of Highways is February 6, 1975. The initial review of proposals will be conducted by that agency, which will then forward the proposals (with comments) to the regional office of the Federal High- way Administration. Of primary importance to Glenn Fritts, Statewide Transportation Planning Coordinator, is the ability of the program to continue after the demonstration period without continued direct federal funding. The COG Human Resources Committee met on December 20, 1974, to discuss this program; and, after considerable discussion, it was felt that additional information was needed. The COG Transportation Planning Coordinator was, therefore, directed to secure additional information. Mr. Koglin's report follows: Proposals for demonstration programs are to be submitted to the appropriate Colorado Division of Highways District En- gineer on or before February 6, 1975. The CDH District -52 '1/4sr Engineer will make comments and recommendations and forward the proposals to the CDH Planning and Research Division at the Denver central office. Planning and Research will not review the proposals but will simply forward them to the Federal Highway Administration Colorado District Engineer, who will in turn forward them to the FHWA regional office. In response to many questions put to him, Mr. Forrest Smith, Assistant to the Statewide Transportation Planning Coordinator, asked the FHWA Colorado District Engineer if it is possible to get an extension to the February 6 dead- line. The position of the FHWA is that, because the pre- liminary guidelines have been available since last summer, there should not be a need for extra time. Therefore, the proposals which are submitted must be complete. With regard to the question of required commitment to con- tinue funding of the project after the demonstration period, it is Mr. Smith's opinion that this is a most important part of any proposal. He does agree, however, that the trans- portation service to be continued after the demonstration period may not be the same as that which was funded during the demonstration if the evaluation which is included as part of the program shows that continued operation is not effec- tive. Of the fourteen evaluation criteria, four appear to allow "outs" to a firm commitment to continue funding. Cri- terion number 5 requires a system whose operations can be modified as a result of evaluation. Criterion number 4 re- quires a system that meets local transportation needs in a realistic and prudent manner. Criterion number 6 deals with the commitment of local agencies needing transportation ser- vices to purchase, share or use the area-wide service funded for demonstration. If the agency providing the unified transportation system fails to receive funding from local agencies in subsequent years, then the primary agency could hardly be held responsible for providing a service which is apparently not needed. Criterion number 9 addresses the appropriateness of proposed equipment needs, costs and level of service. If the system is not appropriate for meeting the needs, again it would be difficult to justify continued operation. There are two features which should be built into a proposal for a demonstration transportation system. One is a "before" evaluation. According to the guidelines issued by the Fed- eral Highway Administration, programs should include moni- toring and evaluation to determine the success of the system. In order to have something to measure this success against, it is necessary to have a rather thorough evaluation of the existing transportation system and existing needs. Actually, the evaluation should be part of the proposal. However, -53- Lr due to the lack of time, it will be very difficult to have a thorough evaluation completed before the February 6 sub- mission date. Additionally, it is felt that, if both Larimer and Weld Counties prepare proposals, these proposals should be com- bined. There are four reasons why this should be done. First, a maximum of ten demonstration programs will be funded per federal region. If the programs are submitted separately, it is less likely that both will be funded. Second, the Federal Highway Administration has available $9.6 million for rural transportation demonstrations. If the maximum 100 systems are funded, this is an average of $96,000 per demon- stration. Indications are that the combined request for funds would not exceed $80,000. Third, there should be economies of scale in the monitoring and evaluation portion of the program if this monitoring and evaluation is not car- ried out into parallel efforts. Last, because the Weld County system would be a public operation while the Larimer County system would be a private, non-profit operation, this should provide an additional demonstration as to the rela- tive merits of these two means of providing transportation services. In a preliminary assessment of Larimer-Weld human resource agencies' trans- portation needs, it was determined that 31 out of the 35 agencies surveyed expressed a need for the expansion or improvement of present transportation services. The most frequently mentioned comments were (1) need for better rural services and (2) need for better coordination of present transporta- tion system. This assessment was made by COG Human Resources Field Repre- sentative Alice Mack. The COG Human Resources Committee will make a recommendation to the Board at the January 8 meeting. ACTION ONlGENDA ITEM 33: 34. COMPREHENSIVE EMPLOYMENT AND TRAINING ACT (MANPOWER PROGRAM) : Background Information on Manpower Program The Comprehensive Employment and Training Act (CETA) of 1973 was the first legislation to incorporate the principles of special revenue sharing. The Act was to make federal monies available to states, cities, counties and local governments, who would determine the kinds of programs and services best serving the needs of their citizens, thereby putting an end to the patchwork system of individual rigid categorical manpower programs which began in the early 1960's. The various programs (titles) which apply or might apply to Region Two are as follows: -54- r^ `.r Title I--Comprehensive Manpower Services Title II--Public Employment (areas with 6.5% unemployment or more) Title III--Special Federal Responsibilities (i.e. , Indians, youth) To qualify for Title I funds, a prime sponsor must be a local government of 100,000 population or a combination of governments with one of those units satisfying the 100,000 population criterion. Participants, or those qualifying for manpower services and placement, include the economically disadvantaged, unemployed and under-employed in the following order of priority: 1. Disabled in Viet Nam-era veterans 2. Spanish-surname minorities 3. Older workers (45-plus) 4. Youth (16-21 years) Administrative Structure: In Colorado, manpower funds are administered by the State Manpower Office, a division of the Department of Labor and Employment. Two advisory councils to the Governor have been formed, one a State Manpower Services Council (SMSC), which serves the metropolitan areas, and the other a Balance of State Man- power Planning Council, which includes representatives from Region Two and other outlying counties. Three Subcouncils in the balance-of-state area have also been formed; the one affecting Region Two also includes Regions One and Five and held its first meeting December 16, 1974. The delivery system includes a variety of types of agencies (Division of Employment, SER, COGs, etc.) which have contracted with the Manpower Office for various slices of the money in program delivery. In Region Two, there are two program agents: (1) Colorado Jobs for Progress/SER, co-located with the Colorado Division of Employment offices, and (2) the Northern Colorado Consortium. Money available for Region Two is as follows: Title I--$533,750 ($415,427(?)) Title III—$301,104 The COG Board, at its December 4, 1974, meeting, directed the COG Human Resources Committee to study and make a recommendation as to COG's involvement in the Comprehensive Employment and Training Act (CETA). The COG Human Resources Committee, under the chairmanship of Larimer County Commissioner -55- 4 • ,^ William Lopez, met on December 20, discussed this matter and makes the syr following recommendation to the Board: After discussion of the CETA (Manpower) program as it affects Region Two, the Human Resources Committee voted to recommend that the Human Resources Committee meet with the State Division of Manpower representative to discuss apparent discrepancies in current manpower programs and to further discuss Council of Governments ideas about future management of manpower dollars. ACTION ON AGENDA ITEM 34: 35. SUPPLEMENTAL BUDGET REQUEST FOR THE LARIMER COUNTY COMMUNITY RESOURCES DIRECTORY: As you know, the 1975 COG budget requires that any transfer from the Account 31 (Projects) can only be authorized upon approval of ten (10) affirmative votes of the COG Governing Board, specifically, two Commissioners from each county and six municipal officials. The particular project involves the completion of a "Community Resources Directory" for Larimer County, which would list approximately 300 agencies dealing with people who have various needs, e.g. , House of Neighborly Service, Meals on Wheels, Care-A-Van, etc. This directory would be most helpful to governmental officials, human resource agency personnel, judges, doctors, etc. It is a document that has been discussed in Larimer County for some time; however, it has never gotten much past the discussion stage. A copy of a similar directory prepared in Boulder County will be made available for Board member inspection at the January 8 meeting. Specifically, the COG staff requests $1,000 to be used from Account 31 (Pro- jects) for the purpose of completing the "Community Resources Directory." The breakdown of the $1,000 is as follows: Printing $ 600 Salary (2 weeks) 250 Postage 50 Supplies, Travel 100 $1,000 This project, originally funded at $2,620, was not completed by December 31, 1974, due to a heavier workload than anticipated. Thus, only $1,620 of those funds were expended with the remainder not able to be carried over to the 1975 budget year. It is anticipated that most, if not all, of the requested funds will be re- covered from sales of the directory (assuming 250 copies published, 50 of which would be complimentary, anticipated revenue from the remaining 200 copies is $1,000). ACTION ON AGENDA ITEM 35: -56- • C 36. ROCKY MOUNTAIN NATIONAL PARK IMPACT COMMITTEE: As a result of a meeting held on December 11, 1974, at the Regional Office of the National Park Service in Denver, it was determined that a continuing Rocky Mountain National Park Impact Committee would be established for the purpose of making recommendations on the matter of secondary impacts result- ing from the wilderness designation of 91 percent of the park. The state and federal officials would like to have two representatives from the Larimer- Weld Regional Council of Governments, and it is the staff recommendation that an official from the Town of Estes Park and a member of the Larimer County Planning Commission staff be nominated to this committee.
