trict, but noted that they only care about signal quality. fle saicl Pitkin will be happy to contrihute the
trlr)slutors, cither retaining or.,ncrship or sclling thcm to Garfictd. Mr. Abplanalp said Carfield is not
prcpared to get into a district. lle said that Garfietd could buy the Paraho tTanslators and Pitkin could
hlrr- thc two new Sunlight translators. NIr. Eldert said Pitkin could offset the difference in the purchase
1;rice. Nlr. Eldert, referring to primary maintenance, felt some provision should be made for maintenance
hackup, that a standard bc set for signal quality and i.f that is not met after a specific period of time,Pitkin would be allowed to get into the building and fix it. John Van Gaalen said no way, that there are
four peoplc from Garfield qualified to r./ork on the equipment. Mr. Jollcy said the Van Gaalens will be in
chrrrgc of this, and that the Commissioners have been very happy with their work. Mr. Dady said that only
first class tcchnicians clrn work on thc crluipmcnt. Neil said that is not the case. Mr. Dady said that
mr,rch of Carbondale gets their signal off the Pitkin County translators and uhen they shut down, many resi-
dents rvill be out of a picture. llc said that he was up at the tower one night and could not see any of
Carbondale. Neil disputed this and said that when the non-directional antenna is installed, there should
be no;;rohlcms at all. Neil said that it will cost $12,000 to put in the non-directional antenna and there
are no funds budgeted for this in 1980, but Mesa County has indicated that they will stand the expense.lur. Eldcrt said Pitkj.n will pick up the cost of the PBS signal if the grant does not come through (both(iatfield and Pitkin have applied for an Hllhr grant for educational TV). Neil said that equipment for Channel3 is budgeted. l"lr. Cerise said that whcn lr{esa comes into thc system, thcy will be asked to contribute to-
ward the cost of the equipment. Ir'lr. trltlert said it makcs no sense to have a parting of the ways, and theonly wa)'that wlll happen is lf Pitkin is not satisfied with the signal, Mr. Dady said Pitkin is going
microwave with KRIIX and asked if that would balance the scalc so that wc could have a cooperativc maintcnanceagreement. NeiI said the crux of the matter is open conrnunication - that if Pitkin feels there is aproblem, thev should contact the Van Gaalens, and if they donrt get satisfaction, they should talk to the
Cornmissioners. Neil said that when he originally filed for the PBS channel, he planned to use the smae
rntenna configuration now used, and then filed for the non-dircctional antenna when Mesa and Pitkin expres-
sed interest. [:or this reason, it is possible that PBS could be on the air before the non-directional
alltenna is installed and Pitkin rvould not be able to receive the signal. It was agreed that Mr. Abplanalpuould get in touch with Pitkin to adjust the amount for the microwave signal.
Pitkin Countl'Comisssioner Nlichael Kinstey introduced Curt Stewart and Greg Fitzpatrick of the Pitkin County
htts system. Nlr. Kinsley said that the bus systen was developed to provide transportation down-valIey, em-phasi:ing morning, mid-day and cvening. He said tlrcy h:rve been so successful for the size of the systemthat thc quality of the ride has deteriorated, and they will have to limit the number of riders. lvtr.Kinsley'said the options are to cut service off below [ll Jebel or to raise rates in order to build revenues
and br-rv more bLtses. He said he is norv apprising Garfield County of the situation and requesting that Gar-field Countl'begin to participate. Their budget is nearly one-half nillion dollars, and since revenues areonly SI40,000, Pitkin Courlty is subsidizing the bus system by $360,000 per year. Mr, Kinsley said they willnot be incteasing the subsidy in the futlrrc and so are looking for alternate soulces of funding and willalso hc approaching Eagle County, Carbondale, and Glenwood Springs. Approximately lOe, of the riders are
from CIent*'ood and Carbondale. Irlr..lollcy said that would nean a contribution from Garfield County of
S)S,000 to S40,000. Mr. Cerise said he is not satlsfied rvith the l0% figure because most of the riders aregoing to Aspen to work and that is not Garfiel.d's responsibility because the Pitkin housing situation is
causing the problem. Itlr. Kinsley acknorvledged l.lr. Cerise's statement, but said they feel that those people
are living in Garfield Coulrty and generating sales and property taxes, etc. I'lr. Jolley said it could pos-
sib11'be based on horv manl- Carfield County people ride within county lines, but said he did not think we
could ask Garfield Count)'taxpayers to subsidize the bus to Aspen. Mr. Kinsley said some of the ridcrs areGarfield County taxpayers. Itlr. Cerise asked why we should subsidize the people that are living in Garfield
Courlt\', but working in Pitkin County. lr{r. Kinsley said Garficld County has some responsibility because theyare Grrfield County residents. Itlr. Jolley asked if raising the rates would elininate riders. Mr. Stewartsaid he does llot think so because of the rising cost of gasoline, etc. lnlr. Cerise said Pitkin County isalso strbsidi:rng motel owners because many of them buy discount coupons and give them to their employees.l\lr. Kinslc;- said there are no bus systems except recreational that make money. tllr. Cerise said he wouldlike to hear what Eagle Collnty says. I!lr. Kinsley said in the future, with rising gas prices, there will begrcater demand for bus service and thought should be given to a cooperative effort for more service, andsince Pitkin County has experience, they woutd bc willing to be of service. County Planner Ray Baldwin saidthct the tlighrvay Department is putting together a transit program for Garfield County. I\lr. Jolley said thatriitlt the dcvelopment of oil shale, maybe a privatc company would come in and put somcthing together. Mr.Stcwart said he will provide us with ridership figures betrveen Glenwood and EI Jebel. Mr. Jolley said hefeels these things rvill have to pay their own way.
Tom i\lcdcaris, Rifle llousing Authority, prcsented a third rcvision to thc request for funcls from the I]ttA.
The Commissioners had previously agreed to sign the grant to lend strength to the request. Mr, Medeariscxpiained that this now includes fr-rnds for the Rifle Senior Resource Center. Mr. Abplanalp has reviewedthe documents and added the necessary wording to protect Garfield County. Mr. Cerise moved that the Chair-
man bc atrthorizcd to sign thc applicati.on. Mr..Iolley steppcd down as chairman to second the motion. Carried.
