Re: Resolution No. 39, Series of 2024 – Second Amended and Restated Development
Agreement - Timber Ridge Village

On July 16, 2024, the Vail Town Council approved Resolution No. 35, Series of 2024, as
presented. Resolution No. 35 authorizes the Town Manager to execute the Second Amended

Triumph Timber Ridge, LLC, and authorizing the Town manager to execute the agreement on

II. Amended Development Agreement
The Timber Ridge Redevelopment Committee was tasked with negotiating a n amended
development agreement with Triumph Timber Ridge, LLC, based upon the input and direction
received from the Vail Town Council. The additional amendments to the amended and restated
development agreement include:
• Section 4(g) - The required minimum threshold of fully executed purchase and sale
agreements has been amended to $97M. The Town and Lender thresholds now match.
• Section 7(d)(i) – The Town will acquire any remaining homes in Buildings A, B, and E/F.
The total value of acquisition remains at $25,449, 948. This change ensures that
Buildings A & B are sold out upon completion.
• Section 8(b)(i) - The split of net sales proceeds amongst the parties has been amended
from 70% - 30% to 80% - 20%. As a result, the Town’s financial contribution will be
reimbursed more quickly. There is no change to the total amount of the town’s
contribution.
• Section 9(b) – Change $116,000,000 to $97,000,000. This is a typo.
No other amendments are proposed.
III. Recommendation
The Timber Ridge Redevelopment Committee recommends the Vail Town Council
approves Resolution No. 39, Series of 2024, as presented. The Agreement, as further
amended, continues to achieve the adopted goals and objective of the Timber Ridge
Village development. In doing so, the town staff and the developer will take the steps
necessary to commence construction by no later than August 9, 2024.

Town of Vail Page 2
Redevelopment Goals and Objectives
The following redevelopment goals and objectives were adopted by the Vail Town Council
and will be used to guide future decision-making:
• Seize the full opportunity - The redevelopment of the Timber Ridge Village Apartments
will serve an integral role in strengthening the supply of deed-restricted homes in Vail by
providing for a minimum of 200 dwelling units.
• Deed-restricted homes are the highest priority - 100% of the new homes shall be
deed-restricted for resident occupancy with preference granted to employees working at
businesses in the Town of Vail.
• Optimize this housing opportunity - Given the scarcity of developable land for deed-
restricted homes in Vail, the density, height, and scale of the redevelopment shall be
optimized within the parameters of the Town’s adopted land use regulations, building
and fire codes, and other applicable code provisions.
• Minimize the impacts of the short-term loss of homes- Construction of the
redevelopment project shall not begin prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy
for the Residences at Main Vail to minimize the negative impacts of vacating the Timber
Ridge Village Apartments during construction.
• A market study shall drive the program and design - Timber Ridge Village
Apartments shall be redeveloped to meet the current and future housing needs of year -
round and seasonal Vail residents based upon the findings and conclusions of an
updated housing needs and demand market study.
• Environmental stewardship is a community value – Environmental sustainability best
practices shall be incorporated into the design, construction, and future operations of the
new buildings including 100% electrification, solar array installation, car share program,
beyond energy conservation code construction, water conservation measures, high
efficiency systems, durable materials, etc.
• Cost is a key consideration - Financial sustainability and fiscal responsibility are key
considerations of the long-term affordability of the homes and operational/maintenance
needs of the property owner.
• Time is of the essence - Understanding the critical housing needs of the Vail
community and Eagle River Valley as well as the importance of meeting the growing
demands, the redevelopment of the Timber Ridge Village Apartments shall be
completed within 24 months of its demolition.
• Prioritize homes over cars - Due to its convenient location to the West Vail community
commercial area and ease of access to the primary employment centers in Vail via
public transit, emphasis shall be placed on optimizing the number of residential homes
rather than maximizing the number of vehicles parking spaces.
• Lead by example – The process and outcome of the redevelopment of the Timber
Ridge Village Apartments shall exemplify leadership in delivering on housing and shall
align with Vail’s place amongst leaders in the mountain resort communities.

of the Loan. At that time, the Town will agree to choose unsold units in priority of
completion: Building A first and Building B second , Buildings E and F next, up to
the amount of $25,449,948. If the Town fails to deliver such notice prior to the initial
funding of the Loan, Developer may choose which Units will be purchased by the
Town.
ii. Developer shall provide a one-year warranty on the Town Units,
commencing from the date of closing. If the closing of the sale of a Town Unit
occurs more than 90 days after issuance of a certificate of occupancy for such
Town Unit, the one-year warranty shall be reduced one day for each day that
closing occurs after such 90-day period.
iii. The provisions of this Section will be reflected in the purchase and sale
agreement between the Parties, which purchase and sale agreement shall be fully
assignable by the Town without Developer's consent.
e. Other Units. The Town shall have the right, but not the obligation, to
purchase any other Units in the Development. For any Units that are not sold and retained
by Developer, Developer may lease such Units to qualified occupants subject to the Deed
Restriction.
8. Compensation.
a. Developer Fee. For planning, staffing, managing and completing the
Development in accordance with the Plans and this Agreement, the Developer shall earn
a fee of $8,175,000 (the "Developer Fee"). The Developer Fee is budgeted in the
Development Costs and is not included in the Financial Contribution. If Developer pays
any Deposit Shortfall, the amount of Deposit Shortfall paid by Developer shall be repaid
prior to any disbursements under Subsection b. hereof.
b. Sales Proceeds.
i. In addition to the Developer Fee, following repayment of the Loan,
Developer shall transfer an amount equal to 80% of the Net Sales Proceeds from
the initial sale of each Unit to the Town and applied as repayment of the Cash
Contribution, and the remaining 20% shall be retained by the Developer. This
80/20 split shall continue until Town has received $38,614,769; the total Cash
Contribution. This 80/20 split shall not apply in the case of any assignment of this
Agreement, and the Town shall be entitled to 100% of the Net Sales Proceeds,
until the Town has received the total Cash Contribution.
ii. Once the Town has received the total Cash Contribution Developer will receive
100% of the Net Sales Proceeds until the Developer received $16,400,000.
iii. Once Developer has received $16,400,000 from Net Sales Proceeds and

Contribution, which means the Town will have received the total Reimbursement.
iv. Once the Town has received the total Reimbursement, Developer shall
transfer 15% of Net Sales Proceeds to the Town, and shall retain 85% of Net Sales
Proceeds.
c. Transfer of Units. Upon the later of: (1) 90 days after the date of issuance
of a certificate of occupancy for the last completed building in the Development; or (2) the
full repayment of the Loan (the "Trigger Date"), if the Town has not received the full
amount of the Reimbursement, then Developer shall transfer Units to the Town as a credit
(the "Credit") against the remaining amount of the Reimbursement, subject to the
following conditions:
i. The closing of the transfer of the Units to the Town shall occur no later than
30 days after the Trigger Date.
ii. The amount of the Credit shall be the value of the Units being transferred,
as set forth in Exhibit G.
iii. The Town shall have the option to select the Units it wishes to accept as
Credit, until the Town has received the total Cash Contribution. Once the Town
has received the total Cash Contribution, if Developer has not received
$16,400,000 from Net Sales Proceeds, Developer may retain Units to reach the
amount of $16,400,000, using the values set forth in Exhibit G as the basis. Once
Developer has retained Units to reach the amount of $16,400,000, if any amount
of the Reimbursement remains due and owing to the Town, the Town shall accept
Units as the Credit until the total Land Contribution has been paid.
9. Term and Termination.
a. Term. This Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date, and, unless
otherwise terminated as provided herein, shall terminate 2 years after the issuance of the
final certificate of occupancy for the Development, provided that the warranty, insurance
and indemnification provisions of this Agreement shall survive its termination.

Town fully executed purchase and sale agreements for Units totaling at least
$97,000,000, based on the values set forth in Exhibit G, either Party shall have the right

7/25/2024
\\FILESERVER2019\REDIRECTED$\SKAUFFMAN\DESKTOP\2ND AMENDED AND RESTATED DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
TIMEBR RIDGE VILLAGE FINAL VERSION 07232024.DOCX

within 120 days of the original notice of violation.
ii. If an involuntary petition is filed against Developer under a bankruptcy or
insolvency law or under the reorganization provisions of any law, or when a
receiver of Developer, or of all or substantially all of the property of Developer, is
appointed without acquiescence, and such petition or appointment is not
discharged or stayed within 90 days after the happening of such event.
iii. If Developer makes an assignment of its property for the benefit of creditors
or files a voluntary petition under a bankruptcy or insolvency law, or seeks relief
under any other law for the benefit of debtors.
b. Remedies.
i. If a Developer default occurs, the Town shall first allow Lender to cure the
default. The Town shall provide Lender with a written notice of default, specifying
the default, and sent by first class U.S. Mail to FirstBank, attn: Nick Brinkman and
Matt Gruesbeck, 1234 West Colfax Avenue, Lakewood, CO 80215. Lender shall
have 30 days after the mailing of such notice to cure the default; provided that, if
the nature of the violation is such that it cannot reasonably be remedied within 30
days, and Lender provides evidence to the Town that the default cannot reasonably
be cured within 30 days, then the violation shall be remedied as soon as
reasonably practicable, but in any case, within 120 days of the original notice.
ii. If Lender fails to cure the default as provided above, the Town may, in its
sole discretion and without waiving any other rights under this Agreement or
available to the Town, cause construction of all or part of the Development to be
completed and recover appropriate damages from Developer.
iii. If a Developer default occurs, the ownership of all plans, specifications,
studies, reports and other documents related to the Development shall
automatically transfer to the Town, at no cost.
iv. In addition to the specific remedies set forth herein, the Town shall have all
other remedies available at law or equity, and the exercise of one remedy shall not
preclude the exercise of any other remedy, and further provided that the expiration
of this Agreement shall in no way limit the Town's legal or equitable remedies, or
the period in which such remedies may be asserted, for work negligently or
defectively performed.
c. Liquidated Damages. Because time is of the essence and delayed
performance constitutes a compensable inconvenience to the Town and its residents, the
liquidated damages established in this Section shall be enforced. The liquidated
damages provided hereunder shall not limit the Town's right to pursue other remedies
against Developer, at law or in equity, arising out of any default of Developer other than
delay. Liquidated damages may be deducted from any payment due to Developer. If the

commenced, Developer shall be assessed the amount of $5,000 per day.

a. Default. The following is a Town default of this Agreement: If the Town fails
perform any of its obligations under this Agreement other than its obligation to pay the
expenses and fees of the Development and fails to remedy the same within 30 days after
the Town is given a written notice specifying the same; provided that, if the nature of the
violation is such that it cannot reasonably be remedied within 30 days, and the Town
provides evidence to Developer that the violation cannot reasonably be remedied within
30 days, then the violation shall be remedied as soon as reasonably practicable, but in
any case, within 90 days of the original notice of violation.
b. Remedies. If a Town default occurs, Developer shall have all remedies
available at law or equity, and the exercise of one remedy shall not preclude the exercise
of any other remedy, provided that Developer shall not have the remedy of specific
performance against the Town. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the
event a Town default occurs, Developer may terminate this Agreement upon notice given
to the Town, without waiving any of its rights or remedies hereunder.
c. Additional Remedy for Non-Disbursement. Subject to Section 14.h. hereof,
if any disbursement of the Financial Contribution to Developer's construction draw
account with Lender is delinquent by 25 days or more, then Developer shall have the right
to stop work on the Development and charge Town for any actual, reasonable costs
incurred by Developer and caused by the Town's nondisbursement. In addition, any time
periods for Developer’s performance under this Agreement shall be extended
cumulatively by one day for each day that work is stopped.
14. Miscellaneous.
a. Modification. This Agreement may only be modified by subsequent written
agreement of the Parties.
b. Integration. This Agreement and any attached exhibits constitute the entire
agreement between Developer and the Town, superseding all prior oral or written

MEMORANDUM
To:Vail Town Council
From: George Ruther, Housing Consultant
Russ Forrest, Town Manager
Matt Mire, Town Attorney
Date: July 23, 2024
Re:Resolution No. 40, Series of 2024, a resolution approving a tri-party agreement between
the Town of Vail, FirstBank, and Triumph Development West, LLC
I.Purpose
The purpose of this memorandum to provide an overview of the Tri-Party Agreement between
the Town of Vail, FirstBank, and Triumph Development West. The purpose of the Agreement is
to bind the Parties to the terms and conditions by which FirstBank will close and fund a $115M
construction loan to facilitate the development of Timber Ridge Village.
The primary objective of the agreement is to prescribe the terms and conditions whereby the
development is completed, and the construction loan is repaid, in the event the borrower is in
default with the terms of the loan documents. The presence of the agreement, while complex in
scope and requirements, lessens the financial risks of the parties.
II.Background
Pursuant to the First Amended and Restated Development Agreement between the Town of
Vail and Triumph Development West, Triumph is obligated to secure construction loan financing
necessary to complete the development as approved. The construction loan terms are subject
to the approval of the Town of Vail. To that end, Triumph is proposing to secure the necessary
financing locally through FirstBank. FirstBank, along with two other local construction lending
partners, has committed to close and fund the $115M construction loan. To do so, however,
given the participation of the Town as an equity partner in the development deal structure,
FirstBank is requiring the mutual execution of a tri-party agreement. The tri-party agreement
47
Town of Vail
binds the parties to the terms and conditions by which FirstBank will close and fund the
construction loan. Of significance, the tri-party agreement addresses matters critical to the
success of the construction lending on the development and its completion.
The tri-party agreement was drafted with the development deal structure in mind. For
reference, the development deal structure approved by the Vail Town Council requires a
substantial “first in” equity investment of the Town followed by construction lending from
FirstBank to complete the development. As approved, the Town will invest not more than
$40.5M of equity funding into the development. This equity will fully fund the first $40.5M of
investment made into the total development cost. Once the Town’s equity funds are fully
expended, FirstBank shall fund the remainder of the development cost with traditional
construction financing. Per the adopted development goals and objectives for the new Timber
Ridge Village, a primary objective was to identify a development deal structure which required
little to no financial subsidy to be contributed to the development. To that end, the development
deal is structured such that all parties are paid back for their investment and contribution to the
development.
III.Tri-Party Agreement Overview
The tri-party agreement covers a wide range of topics relating to the funding of the
development. The following topics are covered in the draft tri-party agreement:
Effective Date
o The tri-party agreement takes effect and becomes enforceable upon closing of
the construction loan.
Collateral Assignment of the Vested Property Rights and the Rights of the Development
Agreement.
o FirstBank will close on the construction loan prior to the start of construction.
o The title to the property transfer to Triumph upon the closing of the construction
loan.
o FirstBank will record a deed of trust on the property at the time of closing.
o The Town’s deed restriction and development agreement will be recorded prior
to the deed of trust.
o The development agreement must survive foreclosure.
o The property, vested property rights, and development agreement shall be
collateral assigned to the construction loan.
o As collateral, in the event of default, the vested property rights and development
agreement obligations transfer with the title.
o The development agreement may be assigned, with assumptive rights, in the
event of default.
Disbursement of the Town’s Financial Contribution.
o The Town will fund a separate disbursement account at FirstBank.
48
Town of Vail
o The amounts of the future deposits are intended to only cover monthly
construction draw applications. For investment purposes, the Town will not make
a lump sum payment of its financial contribution.
o The Town’s depositing of funds will serve as authorization for disbursement of
the funds by FirstBank.
o For consistency and quality assurance purposes, the FirstBank will administer
the disbursement process for the duration of the development.
o The Town’s financial contribution shall not exceed $40,523,046.
Deed of Trust Subordination to the Deed Restriction.
o This is a non-negotiable item.
Default Provisions Under the Loan Documents and Development Agreement.
o In the event of a default during the Town’s funding of the development, the Town
maintains a reversionary interest in the property.
o The reversionary interest terminates once FirstBank funds the first dollar of the
construction loan. FirstBank cannot fund the construction loan until after the
Town has expended the Town’s financial contribution.
o The Town and FirstBank each maintain a 120-day right to cure period in the
event of a default on the construction loan with notice.
o The Town maintains the right to pay off the loan and assume the development.
o The Town is obligated to “standstill” on its enforcement of the development
agreement upon notice of foreclosure by FirstBank.
o The Town has limited rights during the standstill period.
o The Town maintains the ability to access the site and complete any site
preservation and improvements protection with prior consent from FirstBank.
o In the event of default or sale through receivership, FirstBank will agree to
consult with the Town.
o Consultation includes selection of a new developer that meets certain
requirements of the Town (e.g. attainable housing experience, mountain resort
experience, Colorado-based, large-scale modular experience).
Town Representations Stipulating to Certain Facts.
Amendments and Termination of the Development Agreement.
o The Town and FirstBank each have consensual rights to amend and/or
terminate the development agreement.
o Non-material changes to the development agreement, as defined by the Vail
Town Code, can be made without the consent from FirstBank.
Cross Default Provision.
o A default of the development agreement shall be a default of the tri-party
agreement and vice versa.
IV.Discussion Items
At the time of the drafting of the memorandum, two issues still needed to be addressed. Those
two issues are summarized below:
49
Town of Vail
Section 7(b)(iii) – The Town and the Lender each need the right to cure in the event of a default
of the loan. In this case, each is afforded 120 days following proper notice. The lender is
requesting a change to the section whereby the Notice of the Loan Default and the Notice of
Default to the Town are concurrent and run contemporaneously. Language has been drafted
and is under review by the parties.
Section 18h - Acknowledgement that the Town’s governmental powers shall remain in effect
during the term of the Agreement. The parties continue to discuss the appropriate form of
language to include in the agreement relevant to this acknowledgement.
To that end, parties are considering the following revisions below to the two sections:
50
Town of Vail
The tri-party agreement needs to be executed between the parties prior to the start of
construction. At this time, subject to Triumph meeting threshold sales obligations, FirstBank is
preparing for a construction loan closing the first week of August. It has been contemplated that
the agreement would be executed at the time of the loan closing.
V.Recommendation
The Timber Ridge Redevelopment Committee recommends that the Vail Town Council
approves Resolution No. 40, Series of 2024, as presented. With further discussion, it is without
doubt the parties will reach mutual agreement on the two sections highlighted above. Any
further changes needed to reach mutual agreement will not materially affect the effectiveness of
the agreement and shall be in a form approved by the town attorney.

iii.Standstill Agreement.Notwithstanding any provision in the Development
Agreement or this Agreement to the contrary, without prior written approval of
Lender during the Standstill Period, the Town will standstill from exercising any
right or remedy of the Town under Section 12 of the Development Agreement.
For purposes of this Agreement, the “Standstill Period” means the period
commencing from the sooner of delivery of (A) a Loan Default Notice or (B) a
Town Default Notice and ending one-hundred twenty (120) days later. Provided,
however, if, within such one-hundred twenty (120) day period, Lender has
delivered to Town written evidence that it (a) has commenced an action for
appointment of a receiver, (b) has commenced foreclosure, or (c) is pursuing a
cure for the event of default or default described in the Town Default Notice, the
Standstill Period shall be extended and shall expire upon (y) conveyance of the
Property to a third party bona fide purchaser by Lender, its successor or assign,
and assignment of the Development Agreement subject to the terms of this
Agreement or (z) a third party becoming the owner of the Property through a
foreclosure. In both (y) and (z) the Town shall give the third-party owner of the
Property one-hundred eighty (180) days to cure any then existing default under
the Development Agreement. During the Standstill Period, Lender may exercise
any and all remedies under the Loan Documents, in law or equity. Upon pay-off
of the Loan in full by the Town or Developer or expiration of the Standstill
Period, the Town is entitled to exercise its remedies under the Development
Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Development Agreement cannot be
modified without the consent of the Town.
iv.Contemporaneous Periods.Neither Lender nor Town shall have to wait
for the other to deliver the Town Default Notice or the Lender Default Notice,
respectively. The Town Cure Period, Lender Cure Period, and the Standstill
Period are not stacked and shall each run contemporaneously, respectively
commencing from the date set forth in this Section 7.
v.Rights in Plans, Specifications, Construction Documents.To the extent
any of the rights of Developer in and to the plans, specifications, drawings,
studies, reports, construction documents, or any other documents related to the
Development (collectively, “Plans”) have automatically transferred to the Town
under the Development Agreement, the transfer of the Plans to the Town is
subject to Lender’s rights therein and upon Lender’s request for the Plans, the
Town shall immediately transfer and deliver the Plans to Lender and Lender has
full power and rights to transfer the Plans with any conveyance of the Property,
provided, however, if the Town is exercising a remedy under Section 12 of the
Development Agreement but is not subject to this Agreement the Plans shall
remain with or be transferred to the Town.
58
125218243.8

vi.Consultation with Town. Lender agrees to consult with the Town to
determine a mutually agreeable receiver or purchaser of the Property if Lender
has control over either decision. The Town and Lender shall act in good faith to
determine a mutually agreeable receiver or purchaser of the Property, and in the
case of disagreement, Lender’s decision shall control. In connection therewith,
Lender agrees to advise the Town of any actions that Lender intends to take that
involve appointment of receiver or transfer of the property from Lender its
successors or assigns at least three (3) business days before Lender takes such
action (unless Lender reasonably determines that under the circumstances, such
delay would prejudice any rights against Developer or collateral or would be
detrimental to Lender’s interests) and to engage in discussions of the proposed
course of action during such three (3) business days. If Lender and the Town
cannot agree upon a mutually acceptable party, the Lender shall make a decision
and the Town shall be bound thereby. Lender agrees to use its commercial efforts
to choose a new developer or receiver that (i) has relevant experience with the
development of workforce housing in the resort towns; (ii) is based in Colorado or
with substantial operations in Colorado; and (iii) has experience with large-scale
modular construction but Lender’s decision shall control.
8.Representations. The Town and Developer represent and warrant that all of the
following are true as of the Effective Date:
(a)The Development Plan has been approved by the Town;
(b)The Town has approved changes to the Plans in accordance with Section
1.b. of the Development Agreement and the revised Plans are final for issuing building
permits and for Developer to commence construction of the Development.
(c)The Development Agreement is in full force and effect and has not been
modified, amended, or assigned other by this Agreement;
(d)Developer is not in default under any of the terms, covenants or provisions
of the Development Agreement, and the Town knows of no event or circumstance which,
with the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute a default by
Developer under the Development Agreement;
(e)The Town has not commenced any action or given any notice to declare a
default of the Development Agreement or to terminate the Development Agreement; and
(f)The Town is authorized to enter into this Agreement.
9.Additional Acknowledgment. Contemporaneously with funding the final deposit
of the Financial Contribution to the Construction Draw Account, the Town agrees to execute and
deliver to Lender, an acknowledgment in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D.
10.No Amendments or Termination. Developer agrees it will not agree to an
amendment or modification to the Development Agreement without the prior written consent of
Lender which consent will not be unreasonably withheld if such amendment is prior to the first
funding of the Loan proceeds. The Town will not terminate the Development Agreement without
a default under the Development Agreement and without first complying with Section 12.b.i of
59
125218243.8
7
the Development Agreement and Section 7 of this Agreement to the extent applicable, unless the
termination is for non-appropriation.
11.Insurance. From and after the first advance of Loan proceeds, to the extent the
Town and Lender are co-payees under any insurance of Developer, Lender shall first be entitled
to use the insurance proceeds subject to the terms of the Loan Documents.

agrees to comply with Section 12.b.i of the Development Agreement. Developer agrees to
promptly provide Lender any other notice under the Development Agreement delivered to it by
the Town and to deliver a copy of any notice delivered to the Town under the Development
Agreement simultaneously with delivery thereof to the Town.
13.Further Assurances. So long as the Deed of Trust shall remain a lien upon the
Property or any part thereof, the Parties, and their respective successors or assigns, shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver, promptly after being requested to do so any and all further instruments
in recordable form reasonably requested by the requesting party for the purpose of confirming
and carrying out the purpose and intent of the foregoing covenants. Promptly upon repayment in
full of the Loan, Lender shall release the lien of the Deed of Trust, unless Lender determines in
its reasonable discretion that any such repayment of the Loan may be considered a “preference”
as such term is used by applicable bankruptcy law or may otherwise be set aside or subject to
return or recovery. Upon the release of the Deed of Trust with respect to all or any portion of the
Property, this Agreement shall be deemed to have terminated with respect to only that portion of
the Property released.
14.Notices. Any notice from Lender to Developer, or Developer to Lender, shall be
given in the manner set forth in the Loan Documents. Any notice from Developer to the Town,
or the Town to Developer, shall be given in the manner set forth in the Development Agreement.
Any notice from the Town to Lender, or Lender to the Town, shall be in writing, shall be
delivered by Federal Express or other nationally recognized overnight delivery service, or

15.Specific Performance and Injunctive Relief. Notwithstanding the availability of

performance, mandatory or prohibitory injunctive relief, or other equitable relief requiring any
defaulting party to cure any breach by it of the terms of this Agreement or refrain from repeating
any breach or default hereunder, provided that the remedy of specific performance is only
available to be obtained against the Town to the extent allowable by the law.
16.No Waiver, Remedies. No failure on the part of a Party to exercise, and no delay
in exercising, any right under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of that right or any other
right (except as specifically referenced in this Agreement); nor shall any single or partial exercise
of any right under this Agreement preclude any other or further exercise of the right or the
exercise of any other right. All remedies are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies
provided by law or in equity. The failure at any time of any Party to timely comply with this
Agreement shall constitute a default. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be
effective against any Party unless the waiver is in writing and signed by the Party against whom
the waiver shall apply and shall be a waiver only with respect to the specific instance involved,
nor shall the same establish a course of conduct.
17.Modification of Loan Documents. No renewal or extension of time of payment or
modification of the Loan Documents, no release or surrender of security for the payment thereof,
no delay in the enforcement of payment thereof and no delay or omission in exercising any right
or power under the Loan Documents, shall in any manner impair or adversely affect the rights of
Lender under this Agreement. The Town shall have the right to consent to a modification to the
Loan Documents prior to the first funding of the Loan proceeds; thereafter, the Town shall have
no right to consent to any extension, renewal, or modification of the Loan or any other actions or
matters of any nature whatsoever in connection with the Loan.

unenforceable under present or future laws, such provisions shall be fully severable and there
shall be added automatically as a part of this Agreement a provision as similar in terms to
such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be legal, valid or
enforceable.

do not constitute substantive matter to be considered in construing the terms of this
Agreement. The Recitals to this Agreement and all exhibits referenced herein are

precluded by law or would cause this Agreement to be unenforceable, notwithstanding any
other provision of this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall constitute a waiver or
abrogation of any governmental power of the Town.

MEMORANDUM
To: Vail Town Council
From: George Ruther, Housing Consultant
Russ Forrest, Town Manager
Matt Mire, Town Attorney
Date: July 23, 2024
Re:Emergency Ordinance No. 9, Series of 2024 – An Emergency Ordinance Approving the
Conveyance of Real Property Owned by the Town of Vail, Described as Amended Final
Plat, Lot 1, Timber Ridge Subdivision
I.Purpose
The purpose of this agenda item is to hold a public hearing on an emergency ordinance
approving the conveyance of real property owned by the Town of Vail to facilitate the
development of the new Timber Ridge Village. An emergency ordinance is needed to maintain
the desired development schedule and fulfill the intent of the approved development agreement.
A copy of Ordinance No. 9, Series of 2024 has been attached for reference.
This agenda items advances the critical actions identified in the Vail Town Council Action Plan,
furthers the adopted housing goal of the Town of Vail, and aids Vail in realizing its vision to be
the premier international mountain resort community and as a national leader in the delivery of
housing solutions for its community residents.
II.Ordinance No. 9, Series of 2024
The Vail Town Council has approved Resolution No. 39, Series of 2024 and Resolution No. 40,
Series of 2024. Each resolution serves to advance the goals and objectives of completing the
new Timber Ridge Village development.
76
Town of Vail Page 2
Pursuant to the Vail Town Charter, the conveyance of real property owned by the Town of Vail
shall be subject to an approving ordinance of the Vail Town Council. Given the desired
schedule of the new Timber Ridge Village development, an emergency ordinance is required.
An emergency ordinance requires a single reading at a public hearing of the Vail Town Council.
As contemplated by the development agreement approved by Resolution No. 39, the title to Lot
1, Timber Ridge Subdivision shall be conveyed to the developer upon closing of the
construction loan. It is likely that the loan will be closed prior to the August 6, 2024 Vail Town
Council meeting.
III.Recommendation
The Timber Ridge Redevelopment Committee recommends the Vail Town Council
approves Ordinance No. 9, Series of 2024, as presented. The Ordinance achieves the
adopted goals and objective of the Timber Ridge Village development. In doing so, the
town staff and the developer will take the steps necessary to commence construction by
no later than August 9, 2024.
Redevelopment Goals and Objectives
The following redevelopment goals and objectives were adopted by the Vail Town Council
and will be used to guide future decision-making:
Seize the full opportunity - The redevelopment of the Timber Ridge Village Apartments
will serve an integral role in strengthening the supply of deed-restricted homes in Vail by
providing for a minimum of 200 dwelling units.
Deed-restricted homes are the highest priority - 100% of the new homes shall be
deed-restricted for resident occupancy with preference granted to employees working at
businesses in the Town of Vail.
Optimize this housing opportunity - Given the scarcity of developable land for deed-
restricted homes in Vail, the density, height, and scale of the redevelopment shall be
optimized within the parameters of the Town’s adopted land use regulations, building
and fire codes, and other applicable code provisions.
Minimize the impacts of the short-term loss of homes- Construction of the
redevelopment project shall not begin prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy
for the Residences at Main Vail to minimize the negative impacts of vacating the Timber
Ridge Village Apartments during construction.
A market study shall drive the program and design - Timber Ridge Village
Apartments shall be redeveloped to meet the current and future housing needs of year-
round and seasonal Vail residents based upon the findings and conclusions of an
updated housing needs and demand market study.
Environmental stewardship is a community value – Environmental sustainability best
practices shall be incorporated into the design, construction, and future operations of the
new buildings including 100% electrification, solar array installation, car share program,
beyond energy conservation code construction, water conservation measures, high
efficiency systems, durable materials, etc.
Cost is a key consideration - Financial sustainability and fiscal responsibility are key
considerations of the long-term affordability of the homes and operational/maintenance
needs of the property owner.
77
Town of Vail Page 2
Time is of the essence - Understanding the critical housing needs of the Vail
community and Eagle River Valley as well as the importance of meeting the growing
demands, the redevelopment of the Timber Ridge Village Apartments shall be
completed within 24 months of its demolition.
Prioritize homes over cars - Due to its convenient location to the West Vail community
commercial area and ease of access to the primary employment centers in Vail via
public transit, emphasis shall be placed on optimizing the number of residential homes
rather than maximizing the number of vehicles parking spaces.
Lead by example – The process and outcome of the redevelopment of the Timber
Ridge Village Apartments shall exemplify leadership in delivering on housing and shall
align with Vail’s place amongst leaders in the mountain resort communities.
