future projects. He anticipates that happening in short order at which time we can revisit the
subject.

$30,000 to be classified to potentially cover pending professional services agreements.

5. Matters from the Chairman and Authority Members
5.1 Matters from the Chairman and Authority Members
Presenter(s): Steve Lindstrom, VLHA Chairman
Ruther joined with inquiry around the Timber Ridge deed restriction and related compliance. Providing
a few examples, Ruther reviewed an example whereas the employment status, paycheck, comes
from an out of county company, but all of the services provided occur in Eagle County area. Because
these two applicants comply with the intent and the terms of the deed restriction, Ruther turned to the
Authority to determine if these situations are still applicable to policy from the Housing Authority.
Lindstrom confirmed that we have followed this approval process from the past and also
supports that many Vail Resorts employees receives checks from Broomfield, while meeting
the terms of the deed restriction.
Unanimously, the Authority approved these one-offs as mentioned by Ruther. Godec suggested
working with legal to provide a statement in clarification of the above.
Lindstrom suggested the Housing Staff work on some policy guidance for the Authority to
consider prior to formulizing the statements and legal considerations. Dietz agrees.
Housing staff will consider the above based on preparation for future, annual, EHU compliance
and bring the Authority discussion points for consideration prior to presenting policy to legal.
Lindstrom prefers to define the line between those providing goods and services here locally
and vs. the remote workers and Deitz agreed.
Ruther provided a quick update regarding Timber Ridge and upcoming agenda items 1)
resolution to approve the 2nd amendment to the development agreement; 2) resolution to
approve a tri-party agreement and 3) an ordinance allowing the Town of Vail to transfer the title
to Triumph Development upon closing of the construction lending. Ruther says we now have
agreement from all parties within the tri-party agreement and the development agreement.
Ruther provided an overview of the status of purchase and sale agreements and there is about
102 units under contract of the 194 total to sell to bulk buyers, individuals or businesses. There
is likely to see a slight price increase in the future.
The team is still working to hold the end date schedule, anticipating a 30-day shift in final
product completion, even with the recent delays.
Ruther exited the meeting.
Anderson mentioned the development fund available to the Authority as well as the
registration opportunity for Authority members to attend the Housing Colorado Conference
in Keystone.
Williams expressed her excitement in the recent Vail InDEED interest recently but if we
anticipate a cadence to need one- off special meetings, it could be helpful to set calendar
inclusions for 15 minutes and then cancel them if they are not needed. Anderson confirmed that
it is abnormal to need the one-off meetings as we have executed recently.
