<br />Bolts Lake Prefeasibility Study <br /> <br />RECEIVED <br />NOY 0 1 1995 <br /> <br />Scenarios for Annex C <br /> <br />Colorado Water <br />Conservation Board <br /> <br />Forecast of Rates, Users, Loan Payments, Other Accounts <br />and Annual P/L and Reserve Account <br /> <br />All forecasts are a d u on an annual fate increase of 5% as agfeed to with <br />the Colorado ter d Power uthority and t e Rural Economic and 2 <br />~g~'!lLJni!Y Development. A similar increase in s aft salaries, benefits and all <br />general expenses also are used in all spreadsheets. It is recognized that at D <br />sometime in the future this rate can be reduced, considering all other inflationary <br />factors. This rate is used in both the revenue and expenditure sections to keep <br />the figures comparable. <br /> <br />Scenario I - Minimum Growth (1.5% in users) <br /> <br />This scenario considefS the minimum growth rate of 4.9%, equal to the <br />Eagle County growth rate. Assuming slightly over 3 persons per service <br />connection, this yields 1.5% growth in new taps each year for the <br />residential service. Commercial growth is considered a the same fate. <br /> <br />Scenario II - Minimum Growth in Old Town - Some Growth in the Rail yafd <br /> <br />The Southern Pacific and Union Pacific Railroads have announced that <br />they will abandon the rail line through Minturn sometime this next <br />summer. This abandonment will make available more than 80 acres of <br />flatland near the 1-70 Dowd Junction. This is considefed prime land that <br />is close to the Vail and Beaver Creek ski resorts. It is certain that growth <br />willcome to this area, an area equal to the main part of town. <br /> <br />This scenario adds a special development category to the income. A <br />felatively slow growth rate for development of the rail yard afea is <br />assumed in this case. <br /> <br />
