Discussion of Council consent for a change of class for Pam Brandmeyer Dobson Ice Arena liquor license Action Requested of Council: Approve/deny the request for a change of class of liquor license. Background Rationale: UMRD is seeking consent from the Council-regarding their application for a change of class of liquor license at the Dobson Arena. They wish to change from an Arts license to a Beer/Wine license. The UMRD, as a Colorado-sanctioned political subdivision, is not now, nor will they ever be, eligible for non-profit status. This is a primary criterion for holding an Arts license. The Liquor Enforcement Division of the Colorado Dept. of Revenue is requiring this change in class, and after studying tf~e various classes of licenses for which the UMRD does qualify, it has been decided that the Beer/Wine license will best serve their needs at the Arena. The Council; as landlord, must consent to this change in class. Staff Recommendation: Approve the change of class request. 2:10 2. Update on Art in Public Places Board Kristan Pritz Action Requested of Council: Agree to allow the proposed skier sculpture to be reviewed by the AIPP Board. Background Rationale: The Board has met two times. A skier sculpture is proposed for the Covered Bridge area by sculptor Jim Hoy. The proposal will be reviewed on November 20th.. Staff also wants to review with Council the AIPP Goals for 1989-90. 2:25 3. Discussion of 1989 Audit Services Steve Thompson Action Requested of Council: Approve/deny staff's recommendation for using McMahan, Armstrong and Association. Background Rationale: The 1989 audit services were bid out (see enclosed memo). Staff Recommendation: Approval of McMahan, Armstrong and Association to perform the 1989 audit. 2:40 4. Design Review Board Report Kristan Pritz 2:50 5. Information Update Ron Phillips 3:00 6. Other TOWN OF VAIL MEMORANDUM TO: Ron Phillips Town Council Members FROM: Steve Thompson DATE: October 26, 1989 RE: Audit Services As you are aware we sent out requests for proposals to eight public accounting firms to do the 1989 audit with an option of auditing the three subsequent years. We received bids from five accounting firms of which only four met the experience and technical qualifications. All four firms were equally qualified in terms of technical ability and experience auditing local governments. The four qualified firms that submitted bids and the maximum amount each firm would charge the Town over a four-year period is as follows. Currently our audit is costing us $25,000 per year. Name of Audit Firm Location Grant Thornton, Denver Bondi & Co., Denver Maximum Price Average Per Four Years Year McMahan, Armstrong & Assoc., Vail Van Schooneveld, Denver $93,050 $90,000 $85,766 $78,805 $23,263 $22,500 $21,442 $19,702 Savings Over Four-Year Period $ 6,590 $10,000 $14,234 $21,195 Based upon the firm's maximum price Van Schooneveld & Co. was the lowest bidder, however, we have some flexibility in working with McMahan, Armstrong & Assoc., as they, will bill the Town less if the audit takes less than 400 hours. McMahan and staff estimate that the audit can be done for 350 hours, therefore, the audit would cost approximately $17,000 a year or $73,000 for the four- year period which saves the Town $27,000 over a four-year period. We recommend using McMahan, Armstrong & Associates for the following reasons: 1. They specialize in governmental auditing. 2. Local CPA firm. 3. Committed to continually improve the service and efficiency. 4. Can offer the same service as their competitors. r DESIGN REVIEW BOARD AGENDA NOVEMBER 1, 1989 3:00 P.M. SITE VISITS 12:45 P.M. 9 1.
