Subject: Letter of Support for Eagle County and Vail Valley Mountain Trails
Alliance’s Outdoor Stewardship Partnership Grant Application
Dear GOCO Grant Committee,
On March 4, 2025, the Vail Town Council voted unanimously to support Vail Valley
Mountain Trails Alliance’s (VVMTA) grant application to Great Outdoors Colorado
(GOCO). This request will provide essential resources to create the Outdoor
Stewardship Partnership initiative, a crucial effort to protect and sustain our public
lands. Public lands in Eagle County provide tremendous recreational, economic, and
ecological value to our communities. However, with increasing visitation, our trails, open
spaces, and watersheds face significant pressures. This initiative will directly address
these challenges by expanding the Trail Conservation Crew (TCC) and creating the
Outdoor Stewardship Crew (OSC), ensuring much-needed on-the-ground stewardship,
restoration, and sustainable recreation management.
Additionally, our federal land managers—including the U.S. Forest Service (USFS) and
Bureau of Land Management (BLM)—are facing significant budget and staffing
reductions, creating even greater uncertainty in their ability to manage and maintain the
public lands that are vital to our communities. These funding shortfalls further reduce
the “boots on the ground” necessary for essential stewardship efforts, increasing the
urgency for local and regional partnerships to fill the gap. This initiative will directly
support USFS and BLM by providing critical stewardship capacity that would otherwise
be lacking.
Through collaboration with local governments, land managers, and community
organizations, this initiative aligns with our municipalities’ commitment to preserving
natural resources, maintaining recreational access, and fostering environmental
responsibility. By supporting this grant, GOCO will help strengthen stewardship efforts
23
across jurisdictions, ensuring the long-term health of Eagle County’s outdoor spaces for
both residents and visitors. We fully support Eagle County and VVMTA’s grant
application and urge GOCO to invest in this transformative project.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Travis Coggin
Mayor

Contractors.
Mortenson
Hyder- McHugh
Saunders
GE Johnson
The design team, owners’ representative team, and staff from the Vail Recreation District
and the Town took 3 months in progressing the design as part of the schematic design
process.
On November 21, 2023, the design team presented to the Vail Recreation District/Town of
Vail Recreation subcommittee(rec subcommittee) in detail, to review progress of the
schematic design package. The rec subcommittee, which includes two Town Council
members, and two Vail Recreation Board members agreed the project was delivering on
what was approved at the conceptual level.
On December 5, 2023, the team confirmed that the schematic design was in alignment
with the goals of the design objectives outlined at conceptual level and received approval
to issue a Request for Proposal to the four shortlisted General Contractors regarding
providing CM/GC services for the Dobson Arena Remodel Project as presented in the
Schematic Design update.
On December 11, 2023, the project team released the RFP which included an
extensive schematic design package vetted over three days by the town, VRD, the
design team and the owners’ representative to the three remaining General
Contractors.
On January 30, 2024, the general contractors submitted the detailed responses to
the RFP including comprehensive schedules, staffing matrices, general and indirect
costs breakdowns, General Contractor Fees and an initial GMP budget based on the
schematic design package.
An evaluation team then rated each RFP based on criteria reviewed as agreed on by
the team. The evaluation team contained members of the design team, VRD staff,
town staff, and the owners’ representative Cumming Group.
On February 20, 2024, the three contractors then participated in 2-hour interviews with
the evaluation team and were rated on the interview portion of the process.
On March 5, 2024, the team presented the results of the competitive process of hiring a
General Contractor, Hyder/McHugh. At that time, the project budget came in significantly
over budget; $76M versus an available budget of $55,400,000. The team presented
multiple program options to Council seeking feedback on the preferred direction forward.
Council asked that this team narrow down the options to three main options, one which
41
repairs and refreshes Dobson as it is today, one that provides for enhanced program
that scales up to the available budget and a confirmation of the option as designed in
the Schematic Design documents which includes a replaced and raised roof structure.
On June 5, 2024, an update of project options was presented at a joint meeting of the
Vail Town Council and Vail Recreation Board. After presentation and discussion an
option was selected, and the design team was approved to move to the Design
Development and entitlement process based on the program elements and budget.

RECONCILATION OF iMGP.
The project design team completed 100% Design Development (DD) drawings.
The 100 % DD drawings were the basis of design in the development of an initial

team solicited a competitive bid process from the sub-contractor market in the
development of the iGMP. The contractor team presented the iGMP package to
the design and owner’s representative team, VRD staff and town staff on

II. DESCRIPTION OF REQUEST
The Vail Town Council shall approve, approve with modifications, or deny Ordinance
No. 2, Series of 2025, upon first reading.
The applicant, TNFREF III Bravo Vail LLC represented by Mauriello Planning Group is
requesting a recommendation to the Vail Town Council of an application to reestablish
Special Development District No. 43 (Highline Double Tree), pursuant to Section 12-9-A
Special Development (SDD) District, Vail Town Code, to allow for the development of a
hotel addition and EHU apartment building, and related uses and improvements,
located at 2211 North Frontage Road West / Highline Subdivision Lot 1 and Lot 2 A
resubdivision of Tract C, Lot 1, Lot 2, and Lot 3 Vail Das Schone Filing No. 1 and Lot 1,
Vail Das Schone Filing 3. The request is to reestablish the SDD as approval for the
District was not acted upon within the timeline required by code and expired. The
proposal has remained largely the same since it was originally established, with a few
updates to meet the new building and fire codes.
The proposal would add a new wing to the hotel in the western corner of the site. The
ground floor of this building would include parking and a conference space with three
levels of hotel rooms above. In addition, a 15-unit employee housing building is
proposed on the northern side of the property which has been subdivided into a
separate lot that faces Chamonix Lane.
To accommodate these additions, the following changes are proposed to the site:
The parking lot would be restriped to include valet parking
New landscaping would be added around the building
A sidewalk along Chamonix Lane and Road would be constructed
A loading zone parking space would be added in front of the EHU building on
Chamonix Lane
The primary access points on the site would be the same as exists today
Since the original approval of the SDD, the dormitory unit proposed to satisfy the 9.6
employee generation requirement has been constructed and deed restriction recorded
(Deed Restriction record # 202407157 recorded on 7/1/2024 and the associated
subordination agreement record #202407276 recorded on 7/2/2024). This leaves a credit
of an additional 2.4 employees for any future expansions.
This amendment affirms that the special development district remains in place and the
development standards laid out are not subject to expiration. The development plan
would be approved for an additional three years, and is subject to expiration.

III. BACKGROUND
In 1980, the hotel was built in the County and was annexed into the town per Ordinance
No. 43, Series 1980 and zoned CC3 within the required ninety days. The Ordinance
was later overturned by the Colorado Court of Appeals due to a lack of contiguity. It was
then annexed again with Ordinance No. 1, Series 1986 and was again zoned CC3 with
Ordinance No. 10, Series of 1986.
Over time, there have been multiple applications for small remodels or exterior
alterations. In 2016, there was an exterior alteration that allowed for restriping of the
parking lot, pool upgrades, and exterior facade upgrades to the building.
In 2019, the applicant submitted applications for a rezoning from Commercial Core 3 to
Public Accommodation 2, a Special Development District application to create a new
SDD, a minor subdivision to create the two lots, a conditional use permit for commercial
and a major exterior alteration application for the building additions and EHU building.
SDD No. 43 was recommended for approval by the PEC on April 13, 2020 and was
established by Ordinance No. 4, Series of 2020 in June of 2020. On that same day,
Ordinance No. 3, Series of 2020 approved the zone district change as well.
Per Town Code Section 12-9A-12 Time Requirements, SDD approval is only valid for
three years, during which time, initial construction must be started and be diligently
pursued. The original approval for SDD No. 43 was good through June of 2023.
However, in March of 2021 during the COVID pandemic, the applicants submitted a
Major SDD Amendment to phase the project and extend the approval timeline. The
project was proposed to have a Phase 1 of the employee housing apartment building,
and the hotel related improvements would be Phase 2. With this change, via Ordinance
No. 16, Series of 2021, the approval was extended to September of 2024.
During that period, the plat was recorded separating the parcel for the EHU building,
and there were improvements to the property including a new elevator tower
accompanying the stairs in the southeast portion of the lot and the offices on the second
floor were converted to an employee dormitory.
52
Town of Vail Page 4
The PEC initially reviewed this application combined with the Major Exterior Alteration
(MEA) at the December 23, 2024 PEC meeting. At the January 13, 2025 meeting the
PEC approved the MEA, with conditions, and recommended approval of the SDD
application. The MEA application is contingent upon the approval of the SDD
reestablishment.

Re: Doubletree Hotel Expansion - Parking Analysis
Vail, Colorado
Purpose:
This memorandum was developed to give a recommendation for the redevelopment of the Doubletree
Hotel. The recommendation is based upon the following two methodologies:
Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) parking demand data
Local parking rates at current facilities
Proposed Expansion:
Existing Conditions: The existing Doubletree Hotel currently has ninety-seven (97) hotel rooms and
nineteen (19) condominium units. The hotel has 2,000sf of meeting space.
Proposed Conditions: The redevelopment at the Doubletree Hotel will bring the facility to a total of the
following:
176 hotel rooms
19 hotel suites (hotel rooms with kitchens)
16 deed restricted employee dwelling units (2-3 bedrooms per unit)
12 deed restricted employee housing units in a dormitory configuration
6,000sf of meeting space
National Parking Rate:
Parking Generation Manual1 states that the average peak
period parking demand for a suburban hotel (Land Use #310) is 0.74 spaces per room. The statistic is
given based upon the 95th Percent Confidence Interval for a nationwide study of 22 hotel sites. The 95th
Percent Confidence Interval indicates that there is a 95% likelihood that the parking demand will fall within
0.65 to 0.83 parking spaces per room. The statistical analysis on this data set is considered good with a
low coefficient of variation of 30%.
Additionally, the average peak period parking demand for a suburban hotel (Land Use #310) is 0.83 spaces
per occupied room. The statistic is given based upon the 95th Percent Confidence Interval for a nationwide
study of 27 hotel sites. The 95th Percent Confidence Interval indicates that there is a 95% likelihood that
the parking demand will fall within 0.74 to 0.92 parking spaces per occupied room. The statistical analysis
on this data set is considered good with a low coefficient of variation of 28%.
1 Parking Generation Manual, 5th Edition, Institute of Transportation Engineers, 2019
97
2
These rates were taken in a general urban/suburban setting throughout the United States. These hotel
facilities do not necessarily have the same access to transit, employee workforce, and restricted
workplace parking that the Doubletree Hotel will likely experience.
Observed Actual Parking Rate:
As stated in the Parking Generation Manual
significantly by land use code. The Parking Generation Manual should be considered only the beginning
point of information to be used in estimating parking demand. Local conditions and area type can
influence parking demand. The wide array of data in the manual blends many site conditions and may not
best reflect a particular local condition. Therefore, a survey of a site in a comparable local condition should
always be considered as one
Therefore, local data provides a more accurate representation of parking for the site. The hotel has
collected the following datasets:
Two days of counts taken 5 times per day
Nightly count data taken for eleven (11) months
Two Days of Counts: Ten (10) counts were taken from Friday, December 20, 2019 to Saturday, December
21, 2019 at the following times, as shown in Table 1 below.

Averages 35 48 0.57 0.65 0.36 0.49
From inspection of the above data, the peaks occur during the 5:00 AM and 9:00 PM count times, thus
showing that the peak parking is during the nighttime.
The data shows that the overall average was 0.65 parked vehicles per occupied room. The overall average
was 0.49 parked vehicles per room for the Saturday time, which is the highest rate for both the occupied
room and room rates.
Figure 1 shows the data in Table 1 graphically.

Figure 1: Doubletree Hotel Hourly Count Data
Nightly Count Data: The hotel has collected nightly data over the last 11 months (January-November 2019)
to show how many rooms were occupied and the related number of cars onsite. The counts were taken
at night to capture the peak parking time. Copies of this data is provided as an attachment.
Table 2 summarizes the data and shows the average rate, low and high range of rates, the low and high
95% confidence interval2 rates for both the Parking Generation Manual and the nightly count data, based
upon a parking rate per room. Scenarios shown include a weekday and Saturday, and
time defined as the months of March and July which represent the highest number of vehicles and
occupancy per month.
Figure 2 shows the data from Table 2 in a graphic format. There are not any 95% confidence intervals
calculated for the Parking Generation Manual s Saturday category, as this data set had only one study
performed.
Table 3 and Figure 3 similarly summarize and display the data based upon a parking rate per occupied
room. There are not any 95% confidence intervals calculated for the Parking Generation Manual s
Saturday category, as this data set had eight (8) studies performed.
2 The 95% confidence interval is defined from the Parking Generation Manual as follows:
Confidence Interval a measure of confidence in the statistical data to the average. It indicates the range
within which there is 95 percent likelihood the average will fall. This range is shown when data for 20 or

The Doubletree Hotel is located where it has s located
within walking and bus proximity to recreation and amenities including restaurants, retail and grocery
stores.
Observed Parking Rate per Room: Per the nightly count data, the observed parking rate was 0.36 vehicles
per room during the weekday and 0.46 vehicles per room on Saturday, based on the annual data. The
observed parking rate for the two highest peak months of March and July was 0.50 and 0.58 for the
weekday and Saturday respectively. The two days of counts dataset had averages of 0.36 and 0.49 for
the weekday and Saturday respectively.
Observed Parking Rate per Occupied Room: Per the nightly count data, the observed parking rate was
0.65 vehicles per occupied room during the weekday and 0.65 vehicles per occupied room on Saturday,
based on the annual data. The observed parking rate for the two highest peak months of March and
July was 0.70 and 0.68 for the weekday and Saturday respectively. The two days of counts dataset had
averages of 0.57 and 0.65 for the weekday and Saturday respectively.
Proposed Parking Rate:
The parking rate for this facility is best determined by using local parking data. The Doubletree Hotel
Development is proposing to provide 215 parking spaces for 223 hotel rooms, suites, and affordable
housing apartments. This equates to a parking rate of 0.96 per unit. This rate of 0.96 per unit, whether it
would be classified as parking rate per room or parking rate per occupied room is greater than the 95%
confidence interval for all values, including that of the peak months. Therefore, with proper parking
management, it is anticipated that a parking rate of 0.96 spaces per room will be adequate for the
proposed Doubletree Hotel development.
Please call if you would like any additional information or have any questions regarding this matter.

Geologic Study
Doubletree Vail Expansion
Vail, Colorado
Project No: 19102
Dear Mr. Mutkoski:
Skyline Geoscience, LLC (Skyline) is pleased to submit this geologic study for the Doubletree Vail hotel
(Doubletree) located at 2211 North Frontage Road West in the Town of Vail, Eagle County, Colorado.
Based on site plan drawings by Alpine Engineering (undated, received November 4, 2019), proposed site
improvements include expanding the existing hotel in the north and northwest parts of the site
(currently a ground-level parking lot and grass-covered lawn). This expansion includes, but is not limited
to, adding a new conference building and parking garage with additional hotel levels above and addition
of a separate apartment building along Chamonix Lane at the rear-north of the property. The proposed
apartment building will be four-stories high and will be notched into the slope along the northern
property boundary.

1.0 SCOPE OF WORK
The objective of this geologic study is to characterize the geologic conditions for the Doubletree
property using existing, available data. According to the Town of Vail geologically sensitive area maps,
rockfall and debris flow hazard zones extend onto the Doubletree property. A medium severity rockfall
hazard zone is mapped in the northwest corner and a moderate debris flow hazard zone extends onto
the property in the northeast corner. For this study, geologic hazards of focus were limited to debris
flow and rockfall hazards. Other geologic hazards are not included in the scope of this study and may
require consideration during future site-specific studies.
Based on the documents available and our understanding of the project, the scope of work for the
geologic study included:
1. Review available literature for the subject site and surrounding area. Available literature
included published reports and maps, aerial photographs, topographic maps, and other
resources.
2. Review applicable local and state government regulations, policies, and guidelines related to
geologic studies.
3. Site reconnaissance for observations of existing conditions.
4. Identify geologic conditions that potentially impact the proposed development using existing,
available data.
5. Preparation of this report signed by a Colorado Professional Geologist summarizing findings,
conclusions, and recommendations.
2.0 SITE DESCRIPTION
The site is located at 2211 North Frontage Road West in the Town of Vail, Eagle County, Colorado. The
site is generally rectangular in shape, about 4.2 acres in size, and currently developed with a hotel,
swimming pool, and parking lot (Figures 1 and 2). The site is surrounded by developed land (commercial,
residential, roadways) and is bordered by the Interstate-70 Frontage Road to the south and Chamonix
Lane to the north.
The site is in the southeast quarter of Section 11, Township 5 South, Range 81 West, with a latitude and
-vicinity generally slopes gently
down toward Gore Creek located about 400 feet to the southeast, at closest approach. Incised
drainages on the undeveloped slopes above the project area drain southeastward toward Gore Creek.
The site topography is generally flat to gently sloping down to the south-southeast, as the existing
Doubletree hotel and a surface parking lot occupy the majority of the site (Photograph 1). The parking
lot areas slope down to the south-southeast with a slope of about 7.5 degrees. The site topography

along the north, east and west property boundaries consist of steeper slopes. The northern property
boundary rises about 14 to 16 feet in elevation to meet Chamonix Lane to the north, with a slope of
about 30 degrees (Photograph 2). The northwest part of the site has a slope of about 12.5 degrees. The
eastern property edge, within the 20-foot property boundary easement also slopes down toward the
hotel parking lot. Elevation ranges from about 7936 feet along the southern boundary to about 7972
feet along the northern property
boundary, an elevation change of
about 36 feet across the property.

3.0 PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT
Skyline understands that proposed development plans include expansion of the existing Doubletree
hotel and addition of a separate, four-story apartment building along the northern boundary of the
property. Expansion of the hotel is to include parking garage, conference room, and hotel levels and
will extend into the northwestern part of the site currently developed as a ground-level parking lot and
an open, grass-covered lawn (Photograph 3). Based on the proposed site plan, the apartment building
will be notched into the steep slope on the north side of the site. Refer to the proposed site plan
drawing included herein as Figure 3 (Alpine Engineering, undated).
Photograph 3. View looking south
across the western part of the
property, currently a ground-level
parking lot and grassy open space.
This is the location of the proposed
hotel expansion.
4.0 GEOLOGIC SETTING
4.1 REGIONAL GEOLOGY
The Doubletree Vail hotel is in the Southern Rocky Mountain physiographic province in a montane to
subalpine setting. The Gore fault system is the western structural boundary of the Gore Range and was
active during the Laramide mountain building event about 70 to 50 million years ago. The Gore Range
is comprised of crystalline rock and is separated from the Front Range Mountains to the east by the
Blue River Valley and the Williams Range thrust fault zone. Southwest of the Gore fault system are thick
sequences of sedimentary units such as the Minturn and Maroon Formations. Sedimentary units
underlie the site and surrounding area and are comprised of shale, claystone, siltstone, sandstone,
122
SKYLINE GEOSCIENCE

conglomerate, and marine limestone. Surficial deposits are also mapped in the region along Gore Creek
Valley and associated tributaries, including artificial fill, alluvial, colluvial, debris flow/fan, landslide, and
glacial deposits.
4.2 GEOLOGY
Based on published geologic mapping (Scott and others, 2002; Kellogg and others, 2011), the site is
underlain by artificial fill deposits overlying Minturn Formation bedrock (Figure 4). The artificial fill
deposits are categorized as modified land surface deposits (latest Holocene; historically recent) by Scott
and others (2002) and are described as predominantly compacted rock, sand and silt placed under and
adjacent to highways, earthen dams, urban streets, buildings, and landscaped areas. In the western
part of the Town of Vail, these deposits include a layer of grass sod and decorative boulders placed
deliberately and moved from their original location. In the project area, modified land surface deposits
typically overlie older surficial deposits such as glacial till, alluvium, fan-alluvium, debris flow deposits,
and colluvium (Quaternary age).
Bedrock at the site is obscured by surficial material. Bedrock underlying the site is Minturn Formation
(Middle Pennsylvanian; about 310 to 300 million years before present), characterized as interbedded
arkosic grit, sandstone, conglomerate, siltstone, shale, with some limestone and dolomite. The grit is
comprised of coarse-grained sand to granule-sized particles, is poorly sorted and quartz-rich. The
sandstone is similar to the grit except these layers are finer-grained. Conglomerate layers are common
in the Minturn Formation and are comprised of granule- to cobble-sized clasts of granite, gneiss,
pegmatite, quartzite, and carbonate rocks. The siltstone and shale layers exhibit dominant mica and
sand components. The color of the clastic units in the Minturn Formation vary greatly on a local and
regional basis. Carbonate rocks also occur in the Minturn Formation, including the widespread and
relatively continuous White Quail Limestone as well as thinner, discontinuous limestone layers in the
project area. Bedrock generally dips 25 to 35 degrees down toward the northwest (Scott and others,
2002).
5.0 GEOLOGIC CONSIDERATIONS
5.1 DEBRIS FLOW
A moderate debris flow hazard zone is mapped by the Town of Vail in the northeast part of the site
currently occupied by a ground-level parking lot. Photograph 4 shows a view of the drainage upslope
from the Doubletree which is the source of the debris flow hazard as depicted on the Town of Vail

geologically sensitive areas map (Figure 5). Published geologic mapping (Scott and others, 2002) shows
younger fan alluvium and debris flow deposits at the mouth of this incised drainage, deposits which
approximately extend up to Chamonix Lane immediately north of the site.
Photograph 4. View
looking northward
across the ground-
level parking lot that
occupies the eastern
part of the site. The
incised drainage
which poses the
debris flow hazard is
visible in the
background, upslope
from the site
boundary.
A large debris flow event occurred in May 1984, originating from the sidewalls of the channel upslope
from the Doubletree property (Photograph 4). In a debris flow analysis report for the Tall Pines
Subdivision located upslope of the Doubletree, Arthur I. Mears, P.E., Inc. (Mears; April 1992) opined
that this debris flow event originated as a small debris avalanche at an elevation of about 8800 feet on
the east-facing slope in the canyon and deposited material into the stream channel which was
experiencing high flows due to heavy snowmelt runoff at the time. A debris flow resulted, transporting
and depositing mud, water, rocks (up to 3-foot diameter) and debris on the alluvial fan surface. The
debris flow deposited material against existing buildings and on slopes above and around structures.
Mears presented recommendations for debris flow hazard mitigation concepts for the Tall Pines
Subdivision (various dates between about 1991 to 1999, see References and Documents Reviewed
section) located upslope from the Doubletree, including but not limited to:
Reinforcement and special design of the lower building walls on all north and east sides of the
proposed structures in the Tall Pines Subdivision, Lots 1 and 2. Design walls to withstand a
uniform impact pressure of at least 500 psf and reach a height of at least 5 feet above final

grade. Windows, doors and other elements such as deck supports within 5 feet of final grade
must be avoided or reinforced to withstand the impact pressures.
A protective boulder wall, at least 5 feet high, along north and east sides of the existing structure
on Lot 4, Vail Das Schone Filing No. 1.
Positive drainage away from and around structures.
Boulder wall at the top of the slope above the access road, with boulders at least 5 feet in
diameter, spaced no more than 1 foot apart, and designed to withstand debris flow impact
pressures of at least 500 psf.
Control and conveyance of surface water runoff (normal and 100-year flood event).
Skyline performed a site visit in September 2019 for observations of the Doubletree property and the
area upslope and to the north of the site. Observations were made (where possible) of the existing
debris flow mitigation features constructed on the properties to the north on the upslope side of
Chamonix Lane. Observed debris flow mitigation and drainage features included:
1. Riprap-lined drainage channel. Includes a culvert to channel water under the asphalt-paved
driveway (Photographs 5 through 7). The riprap works to dissipate high flow energies and to
limit erosion along this channel.
2. Boulders placed along the north and east sides of the residential structure on Lot 4, Vail Das
Schone Filing No. 1 (Photograph 8).
3. A wall of boulders (15 in total), nominally 4 to 6 feet in diameter, spaced about 1 to 2 feet apart
(Photograph 9). This wall is placed at the top of the slope above the asphalt driveway leading to
the Tall Pines Subdivision, within the debris flow drainage channel.
Other debris flow mitigation measures not listed here may have been constructed on these upslope
properties but are not easily visible from the exterior of the structures, or without access to the interiors
or review of building plans.

Photograph 9. Looking
westward, view of the line of 4-
to 6-foot diameter boulders
acting as a debris flow barrier
which prevents larger,
destructive debris from flowing
downslope.
The boulder wall shown in Photograph 9 acts as a barrier system to stop large material from being
transported downslope during destructive and damaging debris flow events. This barrier reduces the
debris flow hazard at the Tall Pines Subdivision and on neighboring properties, including the Doubletree
located directly downslope. Existing mitigation features observed are shown
on Figure 6.
5.2 ROCKFALL
A medium severity rockfall hazard zone extends into the northwest area of the Doubletree property, as
shown on Figure 5. The ground surface on the Doubletree property and surrounding developed area
has been significantly modified and evidence of previous historic rockfall events has been obscured.
The properties upslope from the Doubletree are developed and there are two to three rows of
residential structures between the Doubletree and potential upslope rockfall sources. Although
rockfalls can skirt the edges and areas between existing buildings, the presence of these existing
upslope structures reduces the likelihood of a rockfall potentially reaching the Doubletree.
In a rockfall hazard analysis performed for the Tall Pines Subdivision (April 1992), Mears concluded that
falling rocks would not reach that site. The analysis was based on a design rockfall diameter of 2 feet
and a sandstone outcrop source zone located at about 850 feet northwest at an elevation about 350
feet above the Tall Pines Subdivision. Characterization of previous rockfalls in the area could not be
128
SKYLINE GEOSCIENCE
GEOLOGICAL CONSULTING
19102 DOUBLETREE VAIL EXPANSION GEOLOGIC STUDY | PAGE 12 OF 15
determined by Mears due to significant modification of the ground surface. Although the rockfall
hazard study by Mears is specific to the Tall Pines Subdivision, the results of the analysis indicate that
rockfalls will not reach this upslope site.
Due to the number of existing structures upslope from the Doubletree, and the results of the rockfall
hazard study completed by Mears for the Tall Pines Subdivision upslope from the Doubletree, the
rockfall hazard is considered low for the site. As such, a site-specific rockfall hazard analysis was not
included in the scope for this study.
6.0 CONCLUSIONS
1. GEOLOGY: The geologic units underlying the site include artificial fill overlying Minturn Formation
bedrock. Based on geologic mapping and experience with subsurface conditions in the area, the fill
likely overlies older surficial deposits of glacial till, alluvium, fan-alluvium, debris flow deposits, and
colluvium. Minturn Formation bedrock at the site is obscured by surficial material and is described
as interbedded arkosic grit, sandstone, conglomerate, siltstone, shale, with some limestone and
dolomite. Subsurface conditions, including but not limited to, the depth to groundwater and the
depth, lithology, thickness, and geotechnical properties of the underlying materials, should be
verified during site-specific geotechnical explorations.
2. DEBRIS FLOWS: A moderate debris flow hazard zone is mapped in the northeast part of the site
currently occupied by a ground-level parking lot. The proposed construction in this area includes an
apartment building along the northern property boundary and within the moderate debris flow
hazard zone. The boulder wall installed upslope from the Doubletree property in the Tall Pines
Subdivision reduces the debris flow hazard for the northeast part of the property but does not
eliminate it.
If site development of the Doubletree property is to include residential structures, hotel units, or
other structures within the moderate debris flow hazard zone, a site-specific debris flow hazard
analysis should be completed to determine performance specifications to support mitigation
design. A site-specific debris flow hazard analysis will determine, among other things, the estimated
thickness, impact pressure, velocity, and volume of potential debris flows impacting the site. Design
of debris flow mitigation should be performed by a licensed professional engineer. Mitigation
options to reduce the debris flow hazard in the northeast part of the site are dependent on the
design specifications determined by the project engineer and may include, but are not limited to:
a. Reinforcement of the lower building walls on the north side (and other sides if required) to
withstand the design impact pressure and estimated debris flow height determined with a
129
SKYLINE GEOSCIENCE
GEOLOGICAL CONSULTING
19102 DOUBLETREE VAIL EXPANSION GEOLOGIC STUDY | PAGE 13 OF 15
site-specific debris flow hazard analysis. Other structural elements such as doors, windows,
decks, stairways, etc. within the lower limits of the building should be avoided or also
designed to withstand the estimated debris flow impact pressure.
b. Positive drainage to divert water and muddy debris away from and around structures.
Ground surface should be flat to gently sloping away from foundation walls on the north
side of structures, with adequate access space for equipment to clean out debris if necessary
and to avoid deep accumulations of material in the event of a debris flow.
c. Contain and convey surface water runoff associated with normal and flood event surface
flows.
d. A barrier placed along the northern property boundary within the moderate debris flow
hazard zone and extending beyond the zone on each side to the east and west (extent to be
determined by project engineer during design). The barrier should be designed to withstand
the estimated debris flow impact pressures and be constructed to stop large debris from
moving downslope while allowing water and mud to flow through the barrier system.
e. The mitigation should not increase the debris flow hazard to surrounding properties or
structures.
3. ROCKFALL: A medium severity rockfall hazard zone is mapped by the Town of Vail in the northwest
area of the site currently occupied by a surface parking lot. The ground surface on the Doubletree
property and surrounding developed area have been significantly modified and evidence of
previous historic rockfall events has been obscured. Due to the number of existing structures
upslope from the Doubletree, and the results of a rockfall hazard study by Mears for the upslope
Tall Pines Subdivision, the rockfall hazard is considered low for the site. No site-specific rockfall
hazard analysis was included in the scope for this study.
7.0 LIMITATIONS
The purpose of this report is to provide an assessment of geologic conditions as related to the proposed
expansion of the Doubletree Hotel property at 2211 North Frontage Road West in the Town of Vail,
Colorado. The professional judgments expressed in this report meet the standard of care for our
profession. This geologic study is based on review of available literature and published geologic and
topographic maps, a general understanding of geologic conditions and processes in the project area,
and experience with similar conditions. Variations in geologic conditions can and do occur, and there is
a potential for variations in the geologic site conditions presented in this report. These variations, if
present, may be enough to necessitate modifications to this report. If unexpected, adverse, or differing
130
SKYLINE GEOSCIENCE
GEOLOGICAL CONSULTING
19102 DOUBLETREE VAIL EXPANSION GEOLOGIC STUDY | PAGE 14 OF 15
conditions are encountered during construction, Skyline should be notified for additional review and
potential modification to the conclusions and recommendations herein.
It is beyond the scope of this study to provide specific design criteria related to foundations, structural
fill or site grading. The foundations for the proposed structures, as well as any geologic hazard
mitigation, should be designed by a licensed professional engineer. Reasonable effort was made to
obtain available relevant information through the Town of Vail online property document portal.
Skyline is not responsible for obtaining every and all documents potentially relevant to the geologic
hazards at the Doubletree or surrounding sites. The documents reviewed on the Town of Vail property
document portal may not include every document, report, plan, or drawing relevant to geologic hazard
studies or constructed mitigation on the Tall Pines Subdivision property upslope from the site or on
other sites. Skyline should be notified if additional documentation is discovered or becomes available
which may assist in characterizing the existing geology, geologic hazards and related mitigation
potentially impacting the Doubletree property.

3.1
A request for a recommendation to the Vail Town Council of an application to
reestablish Special Development District No. 43, pursuant to Section 12 -9(A), Special
Development Districts, Vail Town Code, to allow for the development of a hotel addition,
add conference space and an employee housing apartment building, and related uses
and improvements, located at 2211 North Frontage Road West which is composed of
Tract C, Lot 1, Lot 2, and Lot 3 Vail Das Schone Filing No. 1 and Lot 1, Vail Das Schone
Filing 3, and setting forth details in regard thereto. (PEC24-0039)

Planner: Greg Roy
Applicant Name: TNFREF III Bravo Vail LLC represented by Mauriello Planning Group
Rediker introduces Items 3.1 and 3.2. The items are heard concurrently.
Planner Roy gives a presentation. He walks through the history, site plans, existing conditions,
and proposed plans.
Roy and commission discuss details of the parking study for the Highline.
Lipnick asks about the size of the EHUs in the apartment building. Roy says from 800 sf up to 1200 sf.
Rediker asks about the conditional use permit in 2019? Has anything happened with that, does it need
to be addressed?
Roy says the CUP is still in place, not a requirement of the SDD.

Rediker says the existing non-
existing non-conformities today.
Rediker asks about loading and delivery. Roy says the spaces will stay the same, he highlights the
two spaces on the site map. The PEC can deviate on the size of the loading spaces.
Any future redevelopment will have to conform with that height.
Smith asks about housing as a public benefit versus housing as a code standard.
Roy talks about commercial linkage and inclusionary zoning. That is not seen generally as a public
Smith, four of the units are permanent public benefit, the remainder are temporary until required
for a future project.
Smith asks how has this proposal changed from the last time?
-truck turnaround has a different orientation.
Roy says the development plan would come back.
The applicant is represented by Dominic Mauriello with Mauriello Planning Group. Maurielloo says in

or different.
Mauriello gives a presentation. He talks about the employee housing requirements. He talks about
the changes made to the application with the fire code and the fire-resistant landscaping. All of
these EHU units are public benefit in recognition of the SDD. Four of those units cannot be banked.
the elevator tower on the south which can exceed that per code.
Rediker and Mauriello discuss the operation of the valet parking. Mauriello says there will be a
controlled area specifically for the valet parking. The valet spaces are enclosed. The EHU building
may have its parking within the valet area, to be addressed with a parking management plan. This is
also a good location for someone to live without a car.
Jensen asks employee housing mitigation.
Mauriello talks about the employee housing mitigation bank and how that has been applied in the past.
Smith and Mauriello talk about the expirations with the previous approvals.
Smith says the West Vail Master Plan recognizes this. She would like further clarification as to the
transporation master plan, streetscape plan, and the proposed sidewalk on the north and west of
the site.
Mauriello, you would extend the sidewalk if something were to happen in the future where it
should extend to the property line on the southwest.

streetscape
is a conversation we should have.
Smith asks if that conversation can be continued, Roy says it would be best to talk to the Town
Engineer for that conversation.
Smith asks about the grass product. Mauriello says they thought tit was better than it being asphalt.
Smith, the parking lot is currently very lit up. It would be good to address that, especially for the
residents of the EHU building.
Mauriello says they will be responsive to that concern.
Rediker asks about the parking approvals from 2019. Why was it determined that the meeting
room space would require zero spots?
Mauriello say the parking study showed that the actual utilization was less than the parking
requirement. When you took the project wholistically, the conference room was being accommodated
give you a more detailed version of that.
Rediker asks about the management of the snow storage when the hotel is full of guests. Mauriello
Rediker asks about the current snow storage on the south of the building. Mauriello thinks currently
some of it happens on the back of the site. Tucker says currently some of it is stored by the pool.
Rediker, what was the conversation previously in regard to parking for the EHUs?
Roy, it was a mixture of valet and the spaces back there. There are also six spaces on the north side
sure there are spaces allocated within the parking plan.
to sell the housing site it could create problems.
Rediker asks if the enclosed parking is buried. Mauriello, eventually the parking will be seen as
being underground. The garage is buried for the majority of the perimeter.
Roy talks about previous geohazard studies. There will be a site-specific report for this project
with a building permit submittal.
Rediker asks for public comment.
Molly Reagan, lives in the neighborhood. She wants to talk about quality of life, and the potential for
three years of construction traffic on Chamonix Road. They have young children in the area.
Appreciate that there is going to be more discussion about what traffic in west Vail looks like.
Walkability, and community engagement were goals of the WVMP. This will cause more noise in that
neighborhood, the pool at the hotel is already very noisy, would like to talk more about noise as it
pertains to the hotel. Construction traffic will only access via Chamonix, which is a big concern for
everyone in that neighborhood.
Rediker closes public comment.
Tucker, everything has been well laid out. Concerned about purchasing a unit where the parking

there is a condition in there. We need a public process to produce design guidelines and a

Lipnick, overall approve of this process. Concerned about the EHU having specific parking spots,
Town. Concerned about the neighbors along Chamonix, that their needs are addressed noise,
construction, etc.. In general, supports this project, but come back with more specifics.
Jensen, his overall view is just reapproving an existing plan with some modest modifications. The EHU
in its location will benefit the Chamonix residences, providing shielding from the highway. Encourages
provide the most value to the people living there year-round. Hopes that construction access occurs
through the property and not Chamonix.
-
Chamonix, it would be a benefit to have some pedestrian access there, a broader conversation about
that would be great.
McBride, shares concern about parking, not sure we can continue to make the same assumptions.
Understand if the Town and applicant have come to an agreement if this is an extension.
Rediker, wants to have a better understanding of the process, the end result might be the same but
expansion will there be any extra trash services involved with that?
Roy says it may be increasing frequency of service but not expanding.
Rediker, all the deviations are reasonable, some are minimal. Want to make sure parking works, in
difficulties may arise. We have a reduction in snow storage, and an area that is not conducive to
opinion on that. There have been some comments today giving a lot of leeway to the previous
approval.

Planner Knight gives a presentation. She talks about the existing site and surrounding area. She
talks about the master plan context. She walks through the zoning summary for the existing and
proposed zoning.
Hagedorn and Knight discuss the 40% EHU requirement for GRFA.
Smith, to clarify if the mitigation amount is above 438 sf, an EHU is required on site.
The applicant is represented by Michael Current with Current Architects. He says the property fits
what this was intended for. The client was originally planning on building a two -family duplex, but this
became an interesting opportunity when this overlay was approved. There are no concrete plans yet,
a little more site coverage and GRFA.
Jensen asks about the potential parking for the EHU.
Current says a three-bedroom unit would require three surface spots, with the new standards
there would be room for that. The unit may be about 1,600 sf, the plans are very preliminary.
Tucker, will this come back to PEC?
Roy, says if recommended it would go to Council for final approval of the rezoning and then DRB.
Rediker asks for public comment. They have received public comment that was given to the

commissioners today.
Knight says she had phone conversations with neighbors and the main concerns were about
density, bus usage, and increased traffic.
Jon and Barbara Kirschner live in the neighnorhood. Jon Kirschner says they are all for redevelopment,
Barabara Kirschner says they are in favor of one EHU, maybe even two EHUS, but if it gets up to

Jon Kirschner says when they redeveloped their property in 2008 it was built according to code in the
county as a 50/50 duplex, then we were informed we had to do primary/secondary split. That should
Rediker closes public comment. He asks for commissioner comment.
McBride, concerned why we're being asked to vote on something up to 7 units.
Hagedorn, this is not binding as to a development plan. It allows for flexibility in granting more GRFA
functioning like we intended it to, without the applicant
opting in there would be no EHU and it would be a luxury duplex. This shows there is some incentive
here. Believes it meets the criteria, makes sure at least one workforce housing unit is preserved on
this property.
Jensen, like the idea of a three bedroom unit as opposed to one bedroom units, there would be
the opportunity for a family to live here. This is what we hoped for with this plan.
Lipnick is in support of this. The overlay was proposed for benefiting the residents and workers in
West Vail, and this meets the criteria.
Smith supports application. This meets the criteria; she concurs with the findings. This is exactly what
that neighborhood, an old building gets redeveloped in a way that is good for the community. Doubt
anybody could park 7 units, it is self-limiting.
what it looks like.
Rediker agrees it meets the criteria. Appreciates the public comment, the public can be reassured
when we were looking at a lot this size. It could never be a giant parking building on this lot, because
of the way the overlay is structured, it is naturally limiting it due to the criteria involved.
William A Jensen made a motion to Recommend for approval with the findings on page 12 & 13 of

A request for review of a variance from Section 14-10-9 Fences, Hedges, Walls and
Screening, Vail Town Code, pursuant to Title 12 Chapter 17, Variances, Vail Town Code
to allow for a fence to exceed six feet in height, located at 540 S Frontage Road E,

01:09 into meeting:
Planner Leaman-Miller gives a presentation on the application. Goes over the requested variance.
Shows pictures from around the proposed fence location. No trees are proposed to be removed as a
result of the proposed work. Amphitheater management and Vail Police Department have security
concerns from the existing six-foot fence, which is why the variance is requested to go up to eight
feet in height. Staff is recommending approval of the application.
No questions for staff.
Pedro Campos from Zehren & Associates is representing the Vail Valley Foundation. Fence would
be changing to a steel fence that would be more durable. Goes over the process of getting to this
design and how it will be similar to the Dillon Amphitheater.
Rediker asks about the construction of the fence.
Planning and Environmental Commission Meeting Minutes of January 13, 2025

297
Campos goes over the eight-foot interval between foundational pieces to secure rest of the fence. It will
go in the same place as existing, but tighter intervals. Posts will be hand dug and will need to go six
inches below frost line.
Hagedorn asks about the height, the top pieces and if they will be spikes that could endanger wildlife.
They want to have the pickets above the top rail, but they will not be sharp. Smith asks about the
spikes; she has the same concerns as Hagedorn regarding something or someone being impaled.
Hagedorn asks about the height of the pickets.
Campos says they are two inches above the top rail.
Lipnick asks how they came to the decision of six feet compared to eight feet and why.
Campos states that it was a recommendation of the VPD to go up to that height. That is what
they suggested.
Smith does not support the height with the pickets above the rail. Does not feel safe.
Campos notes that concern.
McBride says this could prevent people from getting out in an emergency. Would like to hear about that.
Campos says that there were some emergency evacuations gates that were added a few years ago.
These would be replaced with this project. That also has emergency lighting.
Rediker asks where those egress points are around the fence perimeter.
Rediker who has attended events there knew about east and west gates but not other emergency exits.
Would like that called to the attention of the public that there are other options.
Smith asks how they are activated if needed in an emergency.
Campos says they are automatically locked or unlocked in the case of an emergency. There is also
additional security during ticketed events to usher users to those exits in the case of an emergency.
Rediker wants to confirm that the new fence would follow the same path.
Campos confirms.
Smith has concerns about the pickets and would like to condition the application that the top rail be flat.
Rediker asks staff if that is something the PEC can look at or if it should be left to the DRB.
Planning Manager Roy answers that it is a design element that is best left to the DRB, but the
safety concern is valid.
No public comment.
Hagedorn recommends that there is flat bar on the top of the fence.
Jensen echoes that concern.
Lipnick agrees. Eight feet ok but would like a flat top.
Planning and Environmental Commission Meeting Minutes of January 13, 2025

298
Smith agrees. There are plenty of fences in Ford Park above eight feet. Would like to see the motion
Tucker agrees with all.
Rediker understands the concerns. Fully respects the point that the penalty for breaking the law
should not be landing on a metal picket. Current fence is easy to get over and has seen it. There
could be others with ill intent that could scale it as well. Making it taller will make it more difficult to
scale. They should have security on the interior of the fence patrolling it to make sure no one gets in
there. Believes criteria is met and this is a safety issue.
Jensen adds that this is the height being voted on and DRB should input on design.
causing bodily harm if they try to scale. Recommends the DRB to look at a flat top rail.

01:29:33 into meeting:
Planner Knight gives a presentation. She talks about the history of the property. Major remodels were
completed on one half in 2011 and the second half in 2014, maxing out the GRFA for the property.
In 2023, a building permit identified some discrepancies.
Rediker asks about the definition of crawl space. Knight says its below five feet in height, per code.
Planning Manager Roy adds that, for it to not count, the ceiling height is five feet or less, and
opening is less than twelve square feet.
Knight runs through the GRFA calculations. She talks about the variance criteria, staff is
recommending denial as it is not meeting the criteria.
Jensen, are there consequences to contractors for unpermitted work?
Planning and Environmental Commission Meeting Minutes of January 13, 2025
3 299
Roy, at the end of the days it is on the property owner to make sure their property is in compliance,
the Town is unable to hold contractors specifically responsible for this.
Smith, there is wetland close by here, at some point there was limitation on the amount of
excavation here. What happens if the variance is denied, how is this converted back?
Knight says they would need to conform to the GRFA limits set.
Smith asks how does this happen?
Knight says they are not aware of how this came to be.
Smith, if this were accepted as GRFA, would there need to be additional excavation to allow for
window wells?
egress because it is not a bedroom.
Lipnick asks if the areas in question are on the lowest level.
Knight says we look at the structure as a whole, there is a level that is lower than these.
The applicant is represented by Dominic Mauriello with Mauriello Planning Group. Their client bought
the house as is, without the knowledge that there were spaces that were added illegally. This is a huge
issue for the owner, they are also pursuing legal actions on the private side. We are exhausting our
town here, but there are extenuating circumstances here, look at this more as a case-by-case basis.

Mauriello says it looks like a storage room right now, one of the complicating factors is that there
is mechanical space in the back of it. There has been a web of different changes to the code
since this property was constructed. The secondary units in th
from the changes to code that allowed more GRFA.
Mauriello talks about the evolution of GRFA in the Town. He addresses the variance criteria.
Tucker asks about the idea that rebuilding would grant more floor space? Would that even be
possible with wetland restrictions?
Mauriello, it is a horizontal line, not a vertical line. There are not impacts to wetlands to his knowledge.
Jensen, troubled that this was done illegally and if the PEC approved it, that would give license to others
to do it. Your arguments are significant, but as the PEC its hard to weigh in. Would like to see this go in
front of Town Council and let them address the questions about GRFA.
McBride asks when did the applicant first contact the Town to figure out there was an issue?
Mauriello says long after purchase. They submitted building permit plans, not knowing this space
was done illegally. Had it been disclosed by the seller, it would have been a different situation, the

McBride, what happens if the applicant gets a variance and wins the court case?
Rediker, does the client agree that under current code for GRFA their residence exceeds the allowable?
Mauriello confirms. Rediker says this GRFA is not conforming unless it was granted a variance.
McBride, how long did it take to an answer from the Town?
interior work.
Mauriello says they had no reason to understand that there may be unpermitted additions. He
talks about another case on Potato Patch.
Mauriello says we are to the extent that the hardship is to give fair and equal treatment to a building
with a stepped foundation against a new build.
Rediker, your client is asking us to resolve a lawsuit. He has sympathy for their situation, but are
they asking the PEC to rectify the situation?
Maureillo, when we took a step back, forgetting about the fraudulent situation, could you recognize
the law given these circumstances.
Rediker, is the inequity with the code or because of how the house was constructed?
Mauriello, the house was built before the basement deduction came into effect. People doing new
builds are able to realize more square footage through that.
exempt it could move forward.
Smith clarifies that improvements should not exacerbate a non-conformity? Knight confirms. Smith
says granting this variance would increase the non-conformity.
Roy talks about the difference between illegal and legal non-conformities.
Tucker asks about the building permit. Knight and Tucker discuss the code considerations.
Hagedorn, what is the status of the home currently?
Knight, it is occupiable, the remodel application has been stopped.
McBride, not sure this is the right vehicle for us to address this.
Rediker ask for public comment. There is none.
Rediker asks for commissioner comment.
Hagedorn, agrees GRFA definition is broken, supports a redesign of how it's spelled out, right not it

incentivizes blowing out a site. Would be in support of redefining that, wants to prevent three stories of
subterranean living space like we've seen in peer communities. At the same time, that is the best path for
your client to resolve this. We are not a policy setting body, that is council. Within that context, do see this
variance as a special privilege. The seller misrepresented at the sale, this is turning to the PEC for remedy
activities as a hardship. We would
not grant a GRFA variance with a new build, this meets criteria one and three but fails two.

Smith, concurs with others. The applicant is a victim, the community is also the victim. Limiting the size
of a residence is necessary, the applicant is not being penalized the property just needs to come into
conformity. If the GRFA rules are not creating the desired outcomes, we should amend those rules,
there is a process that is not the variance criteria. The variance would be a grant of special privilege, if
ree criteria.
Tucker, because it is case-by-case, if the opposite end is rebuilding just to maximize GRFA,
then granting some additional storage space would be allowable.
McBride, this is a private property dispute, concerned about the precedent, maybe not legal precedent,
but just because somebody gets a raw deal they can now benefit from that. Sorry the owners had to
deal with that, hopefully there is recourse in the courts. This could have been easily remedied at the
time of purchase by contacting the Town of Vail.
Rediker, we had an excellent presentation by the applicant, sympathetic to the applicant and their
situation. But we're looking at the variance criteria, one and two are not met. This would be a grant of
special privilege, no other properties would be give
after the fact by allowing the victim to seek redress here. The recourse for the applicant is civil action.

Hagedorn says the buyers are enjoying use of the property currently, nothing is stopping them from that.

31:00 into meeting:
Planner Roy gives a presentation. He walks through the vicinity map, the history of the property, and
the applications being looked at today. He walks through the existing conditions and the proposal. He
talks about the deviations with the SDD, the proposed conditions, and about the sidewalks and the
context of the master plan. He talks about the proposed employee housing on the site.
Hagedorn asks about the sidewalk.
Roy says the Town Engineer recommends the sidewalk stays in the plan, because of the
increased density and use south of Chamonix, to prepare it for future use.
The applicant is represented by Dominic Mauriello with Mauriello Planning Group.
Smith and Mauriello discuss types of sidewalks.
Smith asks if the fire truck pullout will be maintained in the winter.
Roy says it will need to be maintained.
Smith & Roy discuss possible sidewalk configurations and possible access to the west.
Smith says a lot of this is a separate conversation from the application as far as public
way improvements.
Tucker asks about possible speed control coming out of the roundabout, especially with
increased pedestrian traffic.
Discussion about a potential condition related to the infrastructure around the project. Jensen would
like to hear more from public works.
Smith, can we ask the applicant to include a condition that all exterior lighting shall be full cutoff?
Roy says Town Code is full cutoff, they could ask the applicant if they want to go beyond that as far
as limiting the lumens.
Mauriello talks about the history of the site, the Town previously approved the SDD on two separate
occasions by ordinance. The deviations being requested were also previously approved.
Mauriello says they would be happy with condition that the applicant shall provide two pedestrian sidewalk
connections to Chamonix lane subject to DRB approval. He talks about the geotechnical report.
He talked to the hotel who lowered the lights, and they will fully address this by January 25th. They
will meet Town Code, which is full cutoff.
Smith, the concern is the lighting near the EHU building.
Mauriello, that condition is fine and it should be addressed by February.
Mauriello presents about the snow management plan. He talks about the parking study for the project.
With the West Vail Master Plan, they are even more consistent with the master plan at this point.

Rediker asks about the relief for the height on the existing building. The buildings that are being
built comply with PA-2? Mauriello confirms.
Mauriello says all the lighting is required to be cutoff so a lighting condition is not necessary.
Rediker asks for public comment, there is none. Public comment closed.
Rediker asks for commissioner comment.
Tucker, the applicant put together a good plan and addressed our concerns.
Smith, the staff memo details all the thought and requirements that went into this approval the first
time around. Being able to look back and see how it met the criteria, confident that each of the
criteria are met. Advocates to add a condition about the sidewalks. For the public, there is a lot
improvement that can be made to the public works part of it, but the public that cares about this
making on one applicant, as far as this concerned, good to go.
Lipnick, the applicant has answered our questions from last meeting. Supports the project, including
the employee housing.
Jensen, thanks applicants for addressing parking for the EHUs. Supports proposal, the parking study
validates the parking plan. Feels good about this project because it anchors the west end, start of
the west vail redevelopment.
Hagedorn, fine with parking proposal as presented, appreciates the EHU parking. There is strong
-trade
approvals, there's responsibility to respect the work that has been done previously. Even without that,
it meets the criteria set forth.
McBride, agrees with Smith and Hagedorn, in support.
Rediker, agrees with commissioners. Not just this commission, but the prior discussions that have
everything here and are making our own decision, but do respect the prior thought that went into

II. DESCRIPTION OF REQUEST
The applicant, TNFREF III Bravo Vail LLC represented by Mauriello Planning Group is
requesting a recommendation to the Vail Town Council of an application to reestablish
Special Development District No. 43 (Highline Double Tree), pursuant to Section 12-9-A
Special Development (SDD) District, Vail Town Code, and a final review for an exterior

The proposal would add a new wing to the hotel in the western corner of the site. The
ground floor of this building would include parking and a conference space with three
levels of hotel rooms above. In addition, a 15 unit employee housing building is
proposed on the farthest northern side of the property which has been subdivided into a
separate lot that faces Chamonix Lane.
To accommodate these additions, the following changes are proposed to the site:
The parking lot would be restriped to include valet parking.
New landscaping would be added around the building.
A sidewalk along Chamonix Lane and Road would be constructed.
307
Town of Vail Page 3
A loading zone parking space would be added in front of the EHU building on
Chamonix Lane.
The primary access points on the site would be the same as exists today.
The vicinity map (Attachment A), applicant narrative (Attachment B), McDowell Parking
Analysis (Attachment C), Skyline Geoscience Geologic Study, (Attachment D),
McDowell Transportation Impact Study (Attachment E), project plan set (Attachment F)
and 12-23-24 PEC Meeting Minutes (Attachment G) are attached for review.
II. BACKGROUND
In 1980, the hotel was built in the County and was annexed into the town per Ordinance
No. 43, Series 1980 and then zoned CC3 within the required ninety days. The
Ordinance was later overturned by the Colorado Court of Appeals due to a lack of
contiguity. It was then annexed again with Ordinance No. 1, Series 1986 and was again
zoned CC3 with Ordinance No. 10, Series of 1986.
Over time, there have been multiple applications for small remodels or exterior
alterations. In 2016, there was an exterior alteration that allowed for restriping of the
parking lot, pool upgrades, and exterior facade upgrades to the building.
In 2019, the applicant submitted applications for a rezoning from Commercial Core 3 to
Public Accommodation 2, a Special Development District application to create a new
SDD, a minor subdivision to create the two lots, a conditional use permit for commercial
and a major exterior alteration application for the building additions and EHU building.
SDD No. 43 was recommended for approval by the PEC on April 13, 2020 and was
established by Ordinance No. 4, Series of 2020 in June of 2020. On that same day,
Ordinance No. 3, Series of 2020 approved the zone district change as well.
Per Town Code Section 12-9A-12 Time Requirements, SDD approval is only valid for
three years, during which time, initial construction must be started and be diligently
pursued. SDD No. 43 had an approval good through June 2023. However, in March of
2021 during the COVID pandemic, the applicants submitted a Major SDD Amendment
to phase the project and extend the approval timeline. The project was proposed to
have a Phase 1 of the employee housing apartment building, and the hotel related
improvements would be Phase 2. With this change, via Ordinance No. 16, Series of
2021, the approval was extended to September of 2024.
During that period, the plat was recorded separating the parcel for the EHU building,
and there were improvements to the property such as a new elevator tower to
accompany the stairs in the southeast portion of the lot and the offices on the second
floor were converted to an employee dormitory.
The PEC initially reviewed these applications at the December 23, 2024 PEC meeting.
Minutes from that meeting are attached for review.

The public accommodation-2 district is intended to provide sites for lodges, limited
service lodges, and residential accommodations on a short term basis, for visitors and
guests, together with such public and semipublic facilities and commercial/retail and
related visitor oriented uses as may be appropriately located within the same zone
district and compatible with adjacent land uses. This district is intended to provide for
lodging sites located outside the periphery of the town's Vail Village and Lionshead
commercial core areas. The public accommodation-2 district is intended to ensure
adequate light, air, open space, and other amenities commensurate with lodge uses,
and to maintain the desirable resort qualities of the zone district by establishing
appropriate site development standards. Additional nonresidential uses are allowed as
conditional uses which enhance the nature of Vail as a vacation community, and where
permitted uses are intended to function compatibly with the high density lodging
character of the zone district. (Ord. 2(2006) § 2)
12-7J-2: PERMITTED USES:

12-7J-12: EXTERIOR ALTERATIONS OR MODIFICATIONS:
A. Review Required: The construction of a new building or the alteration of an existing
building shall be reviewed by the design review board in accordance with chapter 11
of this title. However, any project which adds additional dwelling units,
accommodation units, fractional fee club units, limited service lodge units, any
project which adds more than one thousand (1,000) square feet of commercial floor
area or common space, or any project which has substantial off site impacts (as
determined by the administrator) shall be reviewed by the planning and
environmental commission as a major exterior alteration in accordance with this
chapter and section 12-3-6 of this title. Complete applications for major exterior
alterations shall be submitted in accordance with administrative schedules
developed by the department of community development for planning and
environmental commission and design review board review. The following submittal
items are required:
1. Application: An application shall be made by the owner of the building or the building
owner's authorized agent or representative on a form provided by the administrator. Any
application for condominiumized buildings shall be authorized by the condominium
association in conformity with all pertinent requirements of the condominium
association's declarations.
2. Application; Contents: The administrator shall establish the submittal requirements for
an exterior alteration or modification application. A complete list of the submittal
319
Town of Vail Page 15
requirements shall be maintained by the administrator and filed in the department of
community development. Certain submittal requirements may be waived and/or
modified by the administrator and/or the reviewing body if it is demonstrated by the
applicant that the information and materials required are not relevant to the proposed
development or applicable to the planning documents that comprise the Vail
comprehensive plan. The administrator and/or the reviewing body may require the
submission of additional plans, drawings, specifications, samples and other materials if
deemed necessary to properly evaluate the proposal.
3. Work Sessions/Conceptual Review: If requested by either the applicant or the
administrator, submittals may proceed to a work session with the planning and
environmental commission, a conceptual review with the design review board, or a work
session with the town council.
4. Hearing: The public hearing before the planning and environmental commission shall
be held in accordance with section 12-3-6 of this title. The planning and environmental
commission may approve the application as submitted, approve the application with
conditions or modifications, or deny the application. The decision of the planning and
environmental commission may be appealed to the town council in accordance with
section 12-3-3 of this title.
5. Lapse Of Approval: Approval of an exterior alteration as prescribed by this article shall
lapse and become void three (3) years following the date of approval by the design
review board unless, prior to the expiration, a building permit is issued and construction
is commenced and diligently pursued to completion. Administrative extensions shall be
allowed for reasonable and unexpected delays as long as code provisions affecting the
proposal have not changed. (Ord. 2(2006) § 2)
12-7J-13: COMPLIANCE BURDEN:
It shall be the burden of the applicant to prove by a preponderance of the evidence
before the planning and environmental commission and the design review board that
the proposed exterior alteration or new development is in compliance with the purposes
of the public accommodation-2 (PA-2) zone district, and that the proposal does not
otherwise have a significant negative effect on the character of the neighborhood, and
that the proposal substantially complies with other applicable elements of the Vail
comprehensive plan. (Ord. 2(2006) § 2)
12-7J-14: MITIGATION OF DEVELOPMENT IMPACTS:
Property owners/developers shall also be responsible for mitigating direct impacts of
their development on public infrastructure and in all cases mitigation shall bear a
reasonable relation to the development impacts. Impacts may be determined based on
reports prepared by qualified consultants. The extent of mitigation and public amenity
improvements shall be balanced with the goals of redevelopment and will be
determined by the planning and environmental commission in review of development
projects and conditional use permits. Substantial off site impacts may include, but are
not limited to, the following: deed restricted employee housing, roadway improvements,
pedestrian walkway improvements, streetscape improvements, stream tract/bank
320
Town of Vail Page 16
restoration, loading/delivery, public art improvements, and similar improvements. The
intent of this section is to only require mitigation for large scale
redevelopment/development projects which produce substantial off site impacts. (Ord.
2(2006) § 2)
12-7J-15: LOCATION OF BUSINESS ACTIVITY:
A. Limitations; Exception: All permitted and conditional uses shall be operated and
conducted entirely within a building except for permitted parking and loading areas
and such activities as may be specifically authorized to be unenclosed by a
conditional use permit and the outdoor display of goods. For purposes of this
section, "conducted entirely within a building" means that all activities related to the
permitted use, including contacting potential customers and clients, must occur
completely inside of a building, and not in an open doorway of the building.
B. Outdoor Displays: The area to be used for an outdoor display shall be located directly
in front of the establishment displaying the goods and entirely upon the
establishment's own property. Sidewalks, building entrances and exits, driveways
and streets shall not be obstructed by outdoor displays. (Ord. 11(2019) § 10)
West Vail Master Plan
Chapter 4 Goal 1 Bicycling and walking trips throughout West Vail are comfortable and
convenient due to new infrastructure and other enhancements. Currently, West Vail has
relatively limited bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure, particularly off the Frontage
Roads. Adding infrastructure throughout the community can make existing trips more
comfortable and encourage people to ride a bicycle or walk more frequently. Key
elements of implementing this goal include formalizing walking paths, creating a
pedestrianoriented environment in the commercial area, pedestrian scale lighting, and
developing a connected network of bicycle and pedestrian facilities.
Chapter 4 Table 4.1 Project 13: Widen and extend the multi-use path/wide sidewalk that
is already planned on the east side of the road. The planned path should be enhanced
to ensure a minimum width of eight feet. The path should also extend continuously
between the North Frontage Road and Chamonix Lane. Add bicycle shared lane
markings (sharrows) on the Chamonix Road southbound lane and add signage on the
path to denote that only bicyclists traveling northbound should use the path and that
pedestrian travel is bi-directional.
Vail 20/20 Strategic Action Plan
Goal #4: Provide for enough deed-restricted housing for at least 30 percent of the
workforce through policies, regulations and publicly initiated development.
Address the zoning regulations to provide more incentives for developers to build
employee housing units.

SPECIAL DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT DEVIATIONS REQUESTED:
1. Reduction in the parking requirements for the site.
The application includes a parking study done by McDowell Engineering that looks at
the parking counts for the hotel, conference space, retail, and commercial spaces on
the property. The counts suggested do not include the EHU units or the two
independent restaurants in the hotel building. The study utilizes the Institute of
Transportation Engineers (ITE) counts as well as an onsite parking survey performed by
the property owner over a period of 11 months.
The study concludes that for the uses included in the study a rate of 0.7 parking spaces
per room will be sufficient 99% of the time. At 0.7 spaces per room that comes to a total
of 137 spaces for 195 rooms. With the restaurant seating (18.9), the dormitory (2.5),
and the EHU building (16) the total parking spaces proposed to be required is 174
spaces.
The applicant is also proposing to not enclose 75% of the parking on site as required in
the PA-2 District. With non-conforming properties any additions cannot increase the
non-conformity. As proposed the additional accommodation units would generate a
parking demand of 55 spaces. Included with the parking for the EHU the added parking
requirement is 71 spaces and only 48 spaces are being enclosed. Therefore, the
deviation requested is to have less enclosed parking than required by code.

2. Parking in the front setback.
The existing hotel has parking in the front setback which is not permitted in the PA-2
district. Rather than leave this as a non-conformity, the applicant requests this be
permitted as a deviation through the SDD.
323
Town of Vail Page 19
3. Increase in the amount of parking controlled by valet.
Town Code stipulates that
If the required parking is decided upon
as 174 parking spaces then 50% would be 87 spaces that would be allowed to be
operated by valet parking. The application is proposing to valet park 111 spaces or 64%
of the required parking, which would be 24 more spaces than the maximum allowed by
code. The application proposes to include 208 parking spaces, which exceeds the
proposed required parking (175 spaces) by 33 spaces.
4. Loading and Delivery space sizes
There are two loading and delivery spaces required with the increased size of the hotel
operation. Two spaces are provided and can be seen on sheet C2.1. these spaces are
size 12x28 feet. The minimum by code is 12x35 feet long.
5. Exception from the requirement that landscaped areas with trees cannot be
used for snow storage.
Section 14-5-2(g) does not allow landscaped areas with trees to be counted for snow
storage purposes.
6. Reduction in the amount of snow storage required.
The application proposes a total of 17,189 square feet of snow storage where 17,970
square feet is required by code. The proposed snow storage includes the grasscrete
area that is also designated parking. Without this portion of snow storage counted the
total comes out to 13,837 square feet. Possible snow storage is also impacted by the
fact that the application shows snow storage taking place in the proposed six-foot
pedestrian easement that is proposed to be dedicated to the Town. This easement
would occupy 2,535 of the proposed snow storage area.
come from the classification of the
part of the paved area, as it will be used for parking.
7. Relief from the minimum size of landscaping areas.
There is a minimum size for landscaping in the PA-2 Zone District. The Code requires
This
application wishes to be granted relief from this requirement.
8. Reduction in the amount of landscaping required.
324
Town of Vail Page 20
The minimum amount of landscaping required is 51,614 square feet. The application is
proposing to provide 50,594 square feet of landscaping and asking for a reduction in the
amount required. 3,352 square feet of grasscrete area
that is noted as landscaping.
9. Relief from the required maximum allowed driveway slope.
As an existing condition the slope of the entrance drives do not meet the commercial
requirements of 8% for centerline and 8.5% for cross-slope. Since this is an existing
condition there is no practical way to meet these requirements today without full
redevelopment of the site.
10. Relief from the side and rear setback for the recycling and dumpster
enclosure.
Due to the typical size of a trash enclosure the side setback being reduced for only this
portion would not be unreasonable. The reduction would allow for a trash enclosure to
be added on the east side of the EHU building. The deviation on the South setback is
for the existing trash enclosure that is already in place.
11. Relief from the restriction that no structure shall be built on a slope that
exceeds forty percent (40%) or greater except in a low density residential,
West Vail Multi-Family and Community Housing Zone Districts as outlined
in section 12-21-10.
Since this is a man-made condition the request to be exempted from this provision is a
reasonable deviation.
12. Building Height
The existing hotel extends up to 53 feet in height, which exceeds the maximum height
of 48 feet in the PA-2 district. Rather than leave this as a non-conformity, the applicant
requests this be permitted through the SDD.
SDD Deviations Requested:
1. Reduction in parking requirements for the site.
2. Parking in the front setback
3. Increase in the amount of parking controlled by the valet.
4. Loading and delivery space sizes
5. Exception to from the requirement that landscaped areas with trees cannot be
used for snow storage.
6. Reduction in the amount of snow storage required.
7. Relief from the minimum size of landscaping areas.
8. Reduction in the amount of landscaping required.
9. Relief from the required maximum allowed driveway slope.
325
Town of Vail Page 21
10. Relief from the side and rear setback for the recycling and dumpster enclosures.
11. Relief from the restriction that no structure shall be built on a slope that exceeds
forty percent (40%) or greater except in a single-family residential zone district as
outlined in section 12-21-10.
12. Building height.
Benefits:
1. $32,500 for Public Art
2. A six-foot easement for pedestrian access along the far eastern boundary of the
lot.
3. A sidewalk along Chamonix Lane and Chamonix Road.
4. Four units of the EHU building not placed in a mitigation bank and the interim
period of the remaining units before they are applied to a development
application.
VI. EMPLOYEE HOUSING PLAN
The employee housing requirement for the application results from the commercial
linkage requirement for the additional commercial space.

Total 48.1
With the mitigation rate of 20% for commercial linkage the applicant is required to
provide housing for 9.6 employees. They are proposing to provide that housing through
the employee dormitory constructed from the office space on the site. This could house
12 employees leaving a credit of 2.4 employees.
The 15-unit employee housing unit apartment building would utilize the mitigation bank
(12-23-7) to hold the credit for the units to utilize for a future employee housing
requirement. As part of the public benefit of the SDD four units will not be included in
the mitigation bank.
VII. REVIEW CRITERIA - SDD
Criteria: The following design criteria shall be used as the principal criteria in evaluation
the merits of the proposed special development district. It shall be the burden of the
applicant to demonstrate that the submittal material and the proposed development plan
comply with each of the following standards, or demonstrate that one or more of them is
326
Town of Vail Page 22
not applicable or that a practical solution consistent with the public interest has been
achieved:
1. Compatibility: Design compatibility and sensitivity to the immediate
environment, neighborhood and adjacent properties relative to
architectural design, scale, bulk, building height, buffer zones, identity,
character, visual integrity and orientation.
The proposed SDD amendment is generally compatible and sensitive to the
immediate environment, neighborhood or adjacent properties. The deviations
being requested generally do not affect the bulk and mass of the buildings
compared to what would be permitted through the zoning. The requested setback
deviations are for the existing dumpster encloser and the proposed enclosure on
the eastern side of the property. The approval of the SDD amendment would not
affect the existing enclosure in any way, and the proposed would be allowed to
project eight feet into the side setback, similar to a deck or patio.
The proposed EHU building on the north end of the lot is designed to be two to
three levels above the grade of Chamonix Lane, which is compatible and similar
to the majority of the buildings in that area.
Staff finds that this criterion is met.
2. Relationship: Uses, activity and density which provide a compatible,
efficient and workable relationship with surrounding uses and activity.
The SDD does not propose a change in the use, or activity on the site.
Residential density will not be affected. There will be additional employee
housing units, but those are not counted towards density calculations. In terms of
building density as site coverage, the application proposes 36% site coverage
which would be within the maximum 40% allowed in the CC3 Zone District on
either side of this property and well within the 65% permitted by the zone district.
Staff finds that this criterion is met.
3. Parking And Loading: Compliance with parking and loading requirements
as outlined in chapter 10 of this title.
This application proposes a deviation from the maximum amount of parking that
is allowed to be controlled by valet and to minimize the amount of parking on the
lot according to the provided parking study.
The application shows valet parking that is three cars deep on the surface
parking lot. The third row of the parking aisle is proposed to be covered by grass
pavers where the application states the area will be used for snow storage during
the winter and allow for it to be used as excess parking during the summer.
327
Town of Vail Page 23
Keeping the lot clear enough for fire access and staging could be difficult, but
with the available third row of parking the snow removal operations noted in the
applicant narrative should be sufficient.
The PA-2 zone district has a requirement that 75% of the required parking be
located within the main building. With this application there will be 48 parking
spaces located within the main building, or twenty seven percent (27%) of the
175 spaces discussed above. There are only 39 spaces being added with this
application, meaning the application does not exacerbate the existing non-
conformity, but does not reach the 75%. Staff finds this is acceptable as there is
no increase to the non-conformity.
Staff finds that this criterion is met.
4. Comprehensive Plan: Conformity with applicable elements of the Vail
comprehensive plan, town policies and urban design plans.
The application would be furthering Goal #4 of the Land Use and Development
section of the comprehensive plan as the the employee housing building would
be in addition to required employee housing to satisfy the Commercial Linkage
requirement. The applicant is proposing to build this as a mitigation bank so that
future developments do not have to provide employee housing. There are only
four units that will be excluded from the mitigation bank and can be considered a
true benefit. The benefit of the other twelve units will be temporary since those
will be credited for a requirement associated with a future development.
Staff finds that this criterion is met.
5. Natural And/Or geologic Hazard: Identification and mitigation of natural
and/or geologic hazards that affect the property on which the special
development district is proposed.
There are steep slopes, hazardous rock fall, and debris flow that affects this
property. The applicant supplied a report on these hazards. The report states that
a site specific study would need to be completed for debris flow to suggest the
needed mitigation for the site, and that the rock fall hazard was low for this site. It
did not suggest a site specific study for rock fall. A condition of approval has
been added to the associated Exterior Alteration application to note the site-
specific debris flow study is to be submitted with the DRB application for the
building on Lot 2.
The applicant is seeking relief from Section 12-21-10 that does not allow
structures to be built on slopes exceeding 40%.
Staff finds that this criterion is met.
328
Town of Vail Page 24
6. Design Features: Site plan, building design and location and open space
provisions designed to produce a functional development responsive and
sensitive to natural features, vegetation and overall aesthetic quality of the
community.
The site plan does produce a functional development that is in line with the
aesthetic quality of the community.
The employee housing building is oriented towards Chamonix Lane with two
entrances on the street side and one entrance on the rear of the building that
faces the interior parking lot. The rear entrance allows for the residents to have
covered access when entering from the parking lot. The entrance does not
service the western units of the building but provides a covered stairway to a
heated path that leads to that portion of the building. This will be a benefit to
residents during the winter months to have an interior stairwell to avoid snow.
If residents are parking in the enclosed garage, then they must walk up the
sloped drive aisle to the building. However, having the rear access makes the
travel distance to their unit easier. For residents utilizing the valet parking they
have a designated walkway that is striped in the drive aisle to access their
building. This acknowledges the pedestrians and gives vehicular traffic an
indication that pedestrians may be present and increases the safety and
walkability of the parking lot.
The grass pavers in the third row of valet parking allows for seasonal flexibility
when it comes to the valet operations. It will allow the additional parking in the
summer and extra snow storage during the winter months.
Staff finds that this criterion is met.
7. Traffic: A circulation system designed for both vehicles and pedestrians
addressing on and off site traffic circulation.
The application proposes a sidewalk along Chamonix Lane and Chamonix Road
that varies between five feet, six feet, and ten feet in areas. The sidewalk
improves off site pedestrian circulation resulting in a benefit to the community.
The sidewalk terminates into the property and will provide an access path to the
frontage road for those users.
The interior circulation system promotes walkability to and through the site. It
provides a way for residents and hotel users to access the frontage road
sidewalk without walking through the entrance drive. There is a delineated path
through the parking lot for residents and users going to the bus stop. The stairs
and entrance paths around the EHU building are proposed to be heated. All of
these items combined assist in creating a safer pedestrian environment.
329
Town of Vail Page 25
Staff finds that this criterion is met.
8. Landscaping: Functional and aesthetic landscaping and open space in
order to optimize and preserve natural features, recreation, views and
function.
The SDD asks for relief from the minimum dimensions for landscaped areas to
count in the landscaping calculations. Allowing these areas, that would otherwise
not meet the minimum size requirements, allows more landscaping to be
distributed throughout the site evenly. This increases the aesthetic quality of the
landscaping on the site.
Staff finds that this criterion is met.
9. Workable Plan: Phasing plan or subdivision plan that will maintain a
workable, functional and efficient relationship throughout the development
of the special development district.
The applicant has stated that the EHU building will be constructed at the same
time as the hotel addition. This will ensure that construction will be limited to a
singular time frame and will not be split between two large construction projects.
Staff finds that this criterion is met.
REVIEW CRITERIA EXTERIOR ALTERATION
Section 12-7J-13, Compliance Burden, Vail Town Code, outlines the review criteria for exterior
alteration applications proposed within the Public Accommodation-2 (PA-2) zone district.
According to Section 12-7J-13, Vail Town Code, a major exterior alteration shall be reviewed
for compliance with the following criteria:
1. The proposed exterior alteration or new development is in compliance with
the purpose of the public accommodation-2 (PA-2) zone district.
PA-2 Zone District Purpose: The Pubic Accommodation-2 District is intended
to provide sites for lodges, limited service lodges, and residential
accommodations on a short term basis, for visitors and guests, together with
such public and semipublic facilities and commercial/retail and related visitor
oriented uses as may be appropriately located within the same zone district and
compatible with adjacent land uses. This District is intended to provide for
lodging sites located outside the periphery of the
Lionshead Commercial Core Areas. The Pubic Accommodation-2 District is
intended to ensure adequate light, air, open space, and other amenities
commensurate with lodge uses, and to maintain the desirable resort qualities of
the zone district by establishing appropriate site development standards.
Additional nonresidential uses are allowed as conditional uses which enhance
330
Town of Vail Page 26
the nature of Vail as a vacation community, and where permitted uses are
intended to function compatibly with the high density lodging character of the
The proposed exterior alteration is generally consistent with the PA-2 zone
short term basis outside of the main core areas of the villages. It also includes a
limited amount of commercial to support the lodging use.
Staff finds that this criterion is met.
2. That the proposal does not otherwise have a significant negative effect on
the character of the neighborhood.
The proposal does not have a significant negative effect on the character of the
neighborhood. The height that is proposed as part of this application is generally
compatible with this neighborhood. As discussed in SDD criteria #1, there is a
difference between the residential zone districts across Chamonix Road and the
proposed height of the buildings in this application, however, that difference is
mitigated by the separation of the structures and the slope of the site down
towards the frontage road.
Staff finds that this criterion is met.
3. The proposal substantially complies with other applicable elements of the
Vail comprehensive plan.
The proposal supports the goals and objectives of the Vail comprehensive plan
through the inclusion of deed restricted housing and the promotion of alternative
transportation options. The addition of the sidewalk along Chamonix Lane is in
conformance with the goals of the West Vail Master Plan and Go Vail 2045
Masterplan.
Staff finds that this criterion is met.

Memorandum
To:Town Council
From:Finance Department
Date:March 4, 2025
Subject:Ordinance No. 3, Series 2025, an ordinance establishing a fee for no-show fire
inspections within in the town’s short term rental (STR) code
I.PURPOSE
The purpose of Ordinance No. 3, Series 2025 is to amend the Title 4, Chapter 14 of the
Vail Town Code to allow staff to assess a fee to STR owners or property managers who
set up a fire inspection appointment and fail to attend the appointment.
II.DISCUSSION
In 2022 Town Council adopted Ordinance No. 11 establishing a requirement for all
STRs without a 24/7 staffed front desk to pass a life safety fire inspection every three
years.
STR owners or property managers can schedule fire inspections online. Appointment
slots are made available up to nine months in advance to provide flexibility, and
cancellations can be made online up to 24 hours prior to the inspection to allow others
to fill the open slot. Appointment reminders are sent out upon booking and 24 hours
prior to the appointment. Since the fire inspection requirement has been put in place,
town inspectors have experienced same-day cancellations, cancellations within 24
hours, and no-show appointments. Currently, there are no fees or penalties to
encourage compliance with scheduled appointments.
Staff proposes implementing a $115 fee for no-show appointments or cancellations
made within 24 hours of the scheduled inspection to cover the estimated staff time lost
due to the cancellation. Correspondingly, staff recommends that the owner or property
manager be prohibited from rescheduling an inspection until the fee is paid.
Does Council support adopting this new fee?

the addition of a second level above certain portions of the existing footprint of the residence
located at 3070 Booth Creek Drive.
On December 4, 2024, the Building Official denied the application. On December 18, 2024,

applicant maintained an unlawful trespass on Town-owned property that is adjacent to
the property that was the subject of the building permit application.

Re: Notice of Appeal re: 3070 Booth Creek Drive
Building Permit Application B24-0412 (Application )
Dear Mr. Gennett and Mr. Mire:
Our firm represents the Reggie D. Delponte Trust No. 1 and the Reggie D. Delponte Trust No. 2
submitted the
Application with the Town of Vail Building Department on September 25, 2024, for approval of
the addition of a second level above certain portions of the existing footprint of the residence
located at the Property.
By letter dated December 4, 2024, Delponte was notified that the Application was denied. The
§ 12-3-9(B)(3), the Town cannot
issue a building permit, because the applicant continues to maintain an unlawful trespass on
town-
Vail Town Code § 12-3-
of application, the applicant maintains any activity on any property within the Town that is not
what trespass has occurred, or where, but we can only assume
insufferable efforts to eliminate property known as Tract C, adjacent
to the Property.
To the extent this alleged trespass does pertain to Tract C, Delponte has a legal, recorded
interest in Tract C. See Amendment to Protective Covenants of Vail Village, Eleventh Filing,
attached herewith as Exhibit A. Further, numerous courts have confirmed that
of Tract C is not a trespass.

Specifically, in the litigation captioned Reggie D. Delponte Residence Trust No. 1 and Reggie D.
Delponte Residence Trust No 2. v. Town of Vail, Eagle County District Court, Case No.
2014CV30404, in which the Town of Vail asserted the same claim for trespass on Tract C, the
trial court entered an Order on November 5, 2018, holding:
This Court, by Order dated June 29, 2015, concluded that the Protective
Covenants of Vail Village, Eleventh Filing, burdening the subject properties
[Delponte]
constructed, installed and maintained private landscaping and other
improvements on the Easement in violation of the applicable restrictive
covenants. In addition, the Colorado Court of Appeals determined that
of law.
Article 17 of the Protective Covenants authorizes the termination or amendment
by the owners of sixty-six percent (66%) of the privately owned land within the
Eleventh Filing, recording of the Amendment, and delivery of the Amendment to
the Town Clerk. On July 7, 2017, the Protective Covenants were amended (the
Such Amendment authorized the encroachment of landscaping

Due to the changed circumstances in this matter subsequent to the mandate
maintenance and landscaping of the Easement, the Court awards the Town
damages in the amount of $1.00.
See with as
Exhibit B, pp. 2-3 (emphasis added).
On appeal of this trial court decision, the Colorado Court of Appeals held:

permitted by the covenants and no longer constitutes a trespass. See Delponte
389
Community Development Department
Matt Mire, Esq.
Page 3
I, slip op. at ¶ 30 (holding that Delponte was trespassing because its landscaping
installations were not authorized by the covenants).
See Colorado Court of Appeals decision issued on June 25, 2020, in Case Nos. 18CA2415 and
19CA093 attached herewith as Exhibit C (emphasis added), pp. 10-11.
Notably, in that same appeal, the Town of Vail tried to argue the Amendment was invalid and
should be disregarded. The Colorado Court of Appeals disagreed and held:
Although Vail claims it never had an opportunity to challenge the validity of the
Amendment, Vail did have and took the opportunity to challenge the
supplement brief. Furthermore, at the damages hearing, instead of arguing the
invalidity of the Amendment, Vail conceded for the purposes of the hearing that
it would only seek damages up to the date the Amendment became effective.
Exhibit C, pp. 7-8. To the extent the Town still believes the alleged trespass on Tract C exists
because the Amendment was invalid, the Town has waived this argument. Furthermore, as the
trial court noted above, Vail conceded Delponte s trespass on Tract C ceased on July 7, 2017,
making Delponte s use of Tract C a legal use six years prior to the enactment of Ordinance No.
16 Series 23, by which Vail Town Code § 12-3-9(B)(3) was enacted.
The Notice of Denial based on Vail Town Code § 12-3-9(B)(3) is not premised on any actual
trespass and, even if Delponte s use of Tract C is not permissible under any current regulation,
it is a legal, non-conforming use and there is no violation of any other Town Code provision that
would prohibit issuance of the requested permit. If the Notice of Denial is not related to the
use of Tract C, the Town has failed to provide any justification for the denial. In either event,
the denial of the Application based on Vail Town Code § 12-3-9(B)(3) is an abuse of discretion
and exceeds the Town s jurisdiction, which is actionable under actionable under Colorado law.
C.R.C.P. 106.
Therefore, on behalf of Delponte, we hereby initiate a formal appeal of the Notice of Denial
pursuant to Vail Town Code §10-1-13(3)(a) and request the Building and Fire Code Appeals
Board reverse the Notice of Denial and approve the Application.

RULES OF PROCEDURE
FOR THE FEBRUARY 18, 2025 APPEAL HEARING
BEFORE THE VAIL TOWN COUNCIL
REGARDING BUILDING PERMIT APPLICATION B24-0412
1. Purpose. These Rules of Procedure ("Rules") are adopted pursuant to Vail Town
Code § 10-1-13 to establish the procedures for a hearing to consider an appeal of the
decision by the Building Official to deny the issuance of a Building Permit B24-0412 (the
"Decision"). These Rules are limited to this hearing and any continuances thereof, and
shall not apply to any other hearings before the Town Council. These Rules are intended
to establish reasonable procedures to protect applicable due process rights and to ensure
that the hearing proceeds in a fair and expeditious manner.
2. Background. Under Vail Town Code § 10-1-13, the Board of Appeals took no
action on the appeal, which was deemed concurrence with the Decision under Vail Town
Code § 10-1-13(A)(3)(c). As such, the Town Council is now hearing and deciding the

SUBJECT: Entity formation for West Middle Creek Housing Revenue Bonds
I. SUMMARY
The purpose of tonight’s ordinance is to approve the formation of the Vail Home Partners Non-
Profit Corporation for the West Middle Creek housing development.
II. BACKGROUND
On February 4th, Council received a financing update alongside the first reading of the
ordinance establishing the Vail Home Partner’s entity, a non-profit corporation created to issue
the debt for the West Middle Creek housing project. Staff has been working with Corum, Piper
Sandler, Butler Snow, and Hilltop Securities to refine the proposed financing model to align with
the Council’s project goals. Staff will utilize feedback received from the March 4 work session to
inform the next financing update on March 18 and ensure alignment with Council’s goals for this
development.
Below is a high-level summary of the current financing model, along with an overview of the
ordinance forming the non-profit corporation necessary to finance the project. It's important to
note that the formation of the non-profit under Ordinance 1, 2025 does not commit the
Council to moving forward with the project.
III. DISCUSSION
Current Bonding Structure
The current recommended financing structure remains the same as what was previously
presented to Council and includes a Housing Facilities Revenue Bond (previously called an
Essential Function Bond) issued through a newly formed nonprofit entity with a subordinate
Town of Vail-issued Certificate of Participation (COP). A Housing Facilities Revenue Bond is a
government-purpose tax exempt bond used to finance affordable housing projects, secured by
the net operating income (NOI) from the housing development and a deed of trust on the
property.
Because the project requires financing beyond what the bonds can provide, given the current
interest rate environment and rental rate assumptions, the Town would need to provide a
Certificate of Participation (COP) for the remaining amount of financing. A COP is an effective
tool for government finance because it is a tax-exempt lease-financing agreement and not
subject to TABOR requirements for a ballot question to voters. It does require annual
appropriation of debt service payments by the Town Council. Town participation in the project's
467
Town of Vail Page 2
financing through a COP also provides confidence to the bond market that the local government
supports the project. This will lead to better interest rates for the housing revenue bonds,
thereby providing more capacity for the revenue bonds and decreasing the otherwise required
sizing of the COPs.
At the March 18th Council meeting, Council will receive a financing update. The March 18th
meeting will also include an ordinance allowing the town to issue a COP within certain
parameters approved by Council.
Formation of the Non-Profit Corporation
The Town’s next step in moving forward with the WMC project is to form the non-profit
corporation with Ordinance 1, Series of 2025. A new entity is being formed to issue the housing
revenue bonds to maintain the town’s debt capacity and to protect the town’s credit rating. The
corporation will issue the Housing Revenue Bonds, contract with a property manager(Corum
Real Estate), and then oversee the operations. On the Town's audited financial statements, the
entity will be classified as an Enterprise Fund 'component unit' and presented as a consolidated
fund on the town’s balance sheet, as required by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
(GAAP), mainly due to the level of control retained by the Town over the entity. This structure is
similar to that of the former Timber Ridge Housing Corporation. However, both legally and from
the perspectives of rating agencies and investors, the housing revenue bonds will not be
considered debt obligations of the Town.
Staff proposes that the non-profit corporation be named “Vail Home Partners,” the name of the
already existing collaborative partnership between the Vail Local Housing Authority and the
Town of Vail, with the unified goal of creating workforce housing for those who live and work in
Vail. Board seats for the new corporation will include the following positions:
• Deputy Town Manager
• Town of Vail Finance Director
• Town of Vail Housing Director
• Town of Vail Public Works Director
• Vail Local Housing Authority Representative
The ordinance also authorizes the transfer of the West Middle Creek parcel from the town to the
corporation and gives the corporation approval to issue the housing revenue bonds. The
execution of the land transfer will not take place until just before the bond sale. Parameters
around the debt issuance of the COP will be discussed at the next Council meeting on March
18th; the formal approval for issuance of the Housing Revenue Bonds will be via resolution and
approved by the newly formed Board. In addition, the ordinance acknowledges the corporation
will enter into a loan with the town for the $10.0M cash contribution and repayment of the COP.
Approving the non-profit corporation allows the project to move forward, with the most
immediate priority being the tri-party development agreement between Corum, the Town of Vail,
and Vail Home Partners. However, it does not commit the town to proceeding with the project.
The final “go, no-go” for the project will be prior to issuing the bonds for the project.
IV. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL
Approve Ordinance No. 1, Series 2025, upon second reading authorizing the formation of the
Vail Home Partners non-profit corporation.
