At a special meeting on Monday, the Town Board unanimously agreed that they would not seek legal action regarding the initiated ordinance abolishing the Estes Park Urban Renewal Authority (EPURA). The Board also directed staff to implement the will of the voters. Therefore, at their next regular meeting, the Estes Park Town Board will consider an ordinance that abolishes EPURA in accordance with state statutes. The public meeting takes place at 7:00 p.m. on January 26 in the Town Board Room of Town Hall, 170 MacGregor Avenue.

At its regular meeting on January 20, the EPURA Board, as a separate public entity, told the public that they have made no decisions and will await the direction of the Town Board for abolishment of EPURA before they will make any official decisions or statements.
