Amendment to Summit County Recreational Pathway Regulations. Commissioner Mamula introduced the item. Jessica Forsyth gave a presentation and noted this is a minor housekeeping change to the regulations. The recreational pathway encompasses 40 miles of pathway which connects different municipalities within the county. She noted that the Open Space & Trails page on the website includes the opening timelines for the year. Proposed regulation changes include fixing an incorrect resolution reference and to allow an Open Space & Trails staff member to enforce regulations if such a position is created in the future. She noted that a reference to mobility devices is also being added to the regulations. MOTION: A motion was made by Commissioner Pogue and seconded by Commissioner Mamula to hold a public hearing to consider adoption of the proposed Resolution at the Regular Meeting at 1:00 p.m. on Tuesday, May 27, 2025 and that a hearing notice including the full text of the proposed resolution be published in the County's legal newspaper at least ten days prior to the hearing date. MOTION PASSED UNANIMOUSLY BY THE BOARD PRESENT IX. PUBLIC HEARING A. PLN24-043: Service Plan for Bills Ranch Metropolitan District. Continued from the 3/11/2025 Regular Meeting. Simon Corson gave a digital presentation including but not limited to an updated service plan submitted by the applicant on April 28th. He noted the criteria for approval that the applicant has not addressed including how it will be properly funded, how open space will be properly maintained, and how the proposed indebtedness will be discharged. He shared how a public improvement district (PID) may be a better fit than a special district. Since the updated proposal does not offer as many services, a public improvement district could be a less expensive option. Commissioner Pogue noted that the two service plans are dramatically different. Bill Kinnard, president of the Bills Ranch Neighborhood Association (BRNA), gave a background to the neighborhood and this application. He shared the difficulties that have occurred over the years regarding road maintenance. In 2024, the Board clarified its position on the roads within the association. He noted that the BNRA discussed options including a metro district and al PID. There is no budget included in the application because it would need to go to the voters of the district to approve it. Joe Norris, attorney for the BRNA, discussed the impact of the proposed budget and mill levy. He shared the process from their perspective and going forward if approved. He noted that whether to approve the requests for exclusion is at the discretion of the Board, which can be a condition of their approval today and they have up to 30 days to make those decisions with no impact on the ballot measure. He noted the difficulty and expense of bringing the roads to County standards would be astronomical. He addressed some of the public comments. He stated that other options, such as a PID or Local Improvement district, are not necessarily less expensive. Commissioners discussed issues including costs, transparency, the mill levy process, and the Summit County Board of County Commissioners' Special Meeting Minutes of April 29, 2025 process of future road improvements with Mr. Norris. Commissioner Mamula opened the hearing for public comment. Karen Little stated that they have tried for years to have more road services from the County, and as a neighborhood that is not an HOA, they cannot mandate that residents pay dues. She asked the Planning Department to continue working with them on a solution if the proposed metro district is not approved. Ben Little asked that staff continue to work with them in the future if they do not approve the application today. He stated that even in their voluntary organization, they have never incurred debt and have always done wildfire mitigation. Commissioner Mamula closed the hearing for public comment. Commissioner Pogue noted she is uncomfortable with metro districts due to transparency but that she is also empathetic to the homeowners and she sees that the current situation is unsafe. She discussed options for approval or denial with Jeffrey Huntley. Commissioner Mamula shared his concerns including parks and rec and the potential structure of the district. He noted that he can't support the plan in its current state. MOTION: A motion was made by Commissioner Pogue and seconded by Commissioner Mamula to continue the hearing for PLN24-043: Service Plan for Bill's Ranch Metropolitan District to the next Regular Meeting on May 13, 2025, at 1:00 p.m. in person in the BOCC Hearing Room, 208 Lincoln Avenue in Breckenridge, and via Zoom.
