Estes Valley residents and business owners are encouraged to provide feedback to the Town on their experiences with residential and commercial property insurance. The Town Board has heard concerns from the community about access and affordability. In an effort to gather information on the effects of the property insurance markets in Estes Park, the Town has developed a brief survey, which is available at surveymonkey.com/r/RQVN8WW. The 10-minute survey is anonymous and requires respondents to provide some basic information about their property insurance. It will be open through Sept. 13.
The Town Board will schedule a study session this fall to review the survey data and discuss how issues with property insurance are affecting current and prospective property owners in the Estes Valley. The board intends to use this information to help inform future policy positions to assist the community with this issue through advocacy at the state and federal level. For more information, please contact Town Administrator Travis Machalek at tmachalek@estes.org.
