comprehensive plan g
Page 1
Mixed Use -2 zoning would allow a great deal of development potential which would not be
appropriate. The applicant stated that this is why they were specifically listing maximums on
density, Gross Residential Floor Area, and height that are more appropriate. He added that if
this request were to be approved it could allow for the reconfiguration of property lines in the
area which could result in better planned developments.
The Commissioners expressed their support and benefits for having the entire area under the
same Master Plan. Commission Paladino asked what Vail Resorts thought of the proposal.
Jay Petersen stated that Vail Resorts had expressed support at the Land Use Plan amendment

Applicant: HCT Development, represented by TJ Brink
Planner: Rachel Friede
ACTION: Tabled to December 22, 2008
MOTION: Viele SECOND: Kjesbo VOTE: 6 -0 -0
Rachel Friede made a presentation per the Staff memorandum
Bruce Wright, principal of SB Architects, a representative of the applicant, made a presentation
to provide an overview of the project and respond to the five discussion points outlined in the
staff memorandum. He discussed how the flat roof area is not perceived as flat from the
pedestrian view. He also noted that there are completed roof forms that are more visible than
the flat roof area. He introduced a 3D model of the project and explained that the model is set at
a distance from the podium that illustrates the view from the mountain. Mr. Wright continued by
addressing the loading and delivery access and types of trucks that are expected to deliver to
the hotel. He explained that if the project was not required to accommodate WB -50 trucks, the
service drive could be eliminated. He stated that the applicant wishes to work with future re-
development plans of the Vail Valley Medical Center, ensuring that redevelopment would not be
impeded by the project. He then addressed the options for the pedestrian path, explaining that
the path is meant to create a bike and pedestrian connection from the South Frontage Road to
Meadow Drive. He described that the existing grades on the site create a challenge in designing
the path, and believes the best location is on the west side of Middle Creek.
Commissioner Pierce asked for public comment and referenced the letters included in the Staff
memorandum.
Rachel Friede added that she received another email that will be included in the public record.
Sue Froeshle, owner at Vail International, spoke about the pedestrian path, noting that retaining
walls will be 2 -6 feet high, with railings on top of the walls. She expressed concern about the
Page 2
safety of pedestrians and cyclists due to grade changes. She stated that the existing path is
dangerous in winter conditions and could not fathom a 10% grade on the proposed path. She
was also concerned with run -off to middle creek if the path is heated. She said she is not in
favor of a path on either side of Middle Creek.
Greg Hall commented that the plan calls for a bicycle connection from S. Frontage Rd. to
Meadow Dr. He noted that there is not a clear connection today, and it would be best located in
this development because of the close proximity to a number of amenities.
Jim Lamont, Vail Village Homeowners Association, disagreed with Greg Hall and noted that the
path would be best located in the Lionshead parking structure redevelopment. He expressed
concern for the wildlife habitat of Middle Creek. He suggested that the applicant conduct an
environmental impact statement for the proposed path. He suggested another location for the
path could be between the US Bank Building and the Skaal Haus.
The Commissioners then provided comment on the flat roof area. Commissioner Viele stated he
had no problems with the flat roof area. Commissioner Kjesbo agreed. Commissioner Peirce
opposed the flat roof area, calling it a "landing strip" on the roof. He stated concern about the
amount of deviation from the master plan. Commissioner Tjossem asked what materials and
colors would be used for the roof. Wright responded that it would be a batten -seam material of
silver /gray color. The Commissioners requested that at the next meeting, the roof reflect
proposed architectural projections, and include broken up portions of flat roof.
On the subject of loading and delivery, Commissioner Pierce asked Greg Hall if the docks need
to accommodate a WB -50 truck. Greg Hall responded that many sites in the area can
accommodate WB -50 trucks and that a typical beverage truck in Lionshead is a WB -50. The
Commissioners agreed that WB -50 should be accommodated outside of the building, as
proposed, so that trucks do not park on the Frontage Road. Commissioner Pierce noted that the
location of the service road is not appropriate given its proximity to the Frontage Road.
The Commissioners then agreed that employee housing could be provided off -site since the
applicant had submitted the applications prior to new requirements for on -site housing.
The Commissioners generally noted that the west side of Middle Creek was not a good location
for the pedestrian path, but requested that the applicant explore a pedestrian path on the south
side of the property. Wright clarified that a path of the south side of the property would
potentially conflict with a new entrance for the Vail Valley Medical Center.
Regarding the relationship to the Vail Valley Medical Center, the Commissioners agreed to
respect a potential access point from the Frontage Road, and noted that the project will not
impede redevelopment of the hospital.
Greg Hall recommended that the access points move further west to accommodate a potential
access for WMC off the Frontage Road. He also noted that major intersections could be
formed, and does not want the Fairmont proposal to impede such intersections. TJ Brink, the
applicant's representative, stated that he will not allow the VMC to access on his site.

4. A request for a final recommendation to the Vail Town Council of proposed amendments to the
Vail Village Master Plan, pursuant to Section VIII -B, Adoption, Extensions, and Amendments,
Vail Village Master Plan, to amend Sub -area #4, Transportation Center, to allow for a mixed -use
development on the south side of the Vail Village parking structure, located at 241 East Meadow
Drive /Parts of Tracts B and C, Vail Village Filing 1 (a complete description is available at the
Community Development Department upon request), and setting forth details in regard thereto.
(PEC080015)
Applicant: Triumph Development, LLC, represented by Rick Pylman
Planner: George Ruther
ACTION: Tabled to December 22, 2008
MOTION: Viele SECOND: Kjesbo VOTE: 6 -0 -0
George Ruther made a presentation per the staff memorandum. Ruther noted that the item is
actually a work session rather than a final recommendation.
Steve Virostek of Triumph Development, then made a presentation as the applicant. He said he
has been working on the Willows redevelopment over the past few years, and has gotten to
know the issues that are currently facing the town. Housing is clearly an issue, but also vitality
and quality of life in the Village are major issues for the Town. They are concerned about the
long term viability of Vail Village for workers, residents and guests. Until he became a resident,
he was not exposed to the shoulder seasons. Now, during shoulder seasons, he sees that the
Village is quiet. In hearing all of these discussions on housing, it became obvious that not only
housing was an issue, but employment for businesses in the Village. Having families in the
Village will improve vitality, providing people to walk around, shop and eat, especially during
shoulder seasons. Front rangers would be more likely to visit during shoulder seasons if there is
more vitality in Vail Village. The project being proposed today is a step in the right direction.
Triumph is proposing the Vail Village master Plan amendments because there is merit to the
idea, even though they don't own the land. He said the uses, and the corresponding
amendments to the Vail Village Master Plan, should go through, regardless of whether the Town
chooses Triumph Development for the project. He said other developers may be chosen for
development, but in the end, the changes will make the Town a better place. The idea is to take
the landscape berm, as shown in the corresponding maps and attachments, and replace the
buffer with a building buffer. The building buffer would house: 100% deed restricted housing
from Bridge Street to the east, first floor retail, second floor quasi retail, and office on second and
third floor, and parking for those uses below the new building.
Virostek went on to show the existing site as well as a proposal for development of the
landscape berm. He noted that the building would look similar to the design intent shown in the
rendering. He mentioned that it would not be exactly the same because through the process, the
design of the building changes. He said that all of this can be done without affecting the day to
day operations of the garage. The next rendering he showed was Bridge Street to the east.
While the housing is deed restricted, because of its prominence to the Village, it would be of
similar quality to the existing village. He said that there are people who are already interested in
buying the units. The EHUs would be approximately 2,400 sq. ft. townhomes, and in some
cases, an owner could occupy upper levels and rent the lower level to key employees.
Virostek continued the discussion focusing on access to parking for the project. He said that
employee housing would access their parking through the existing parking structure and would
exclusively be occupied by EHU owners /renters. For office space, the employees could park in
the office parking during office hours, but during non -office hours, the parking could be open to
the public for public parking. This would alleviate the burden on the town for parking. He said
that the retail would complement the employee housing, and not be another t -shirt or fur shop.
He stated employee housing, office space and complementary retail, as well as parking, are
Page 4
great amenities for the Town of Vail. He said in other cases, it might be developed as market
rate condos, and in his opinion this is a mistake. He then gave a break down of the potential
square footage of the differing uses.20- 30,000 sq feet retail and 20- 30,000 sq ft office, as well as
20 -30 units for employees (56,000 sq ft of residential space). It is not a big project, but could
have a big impact. The Vail Town Council voted to approve goals including housing and parking,
and this project meets those requirements. He said opponents would say this is taking away
open space, and he thinks there is plenty of open space in other locations. He said that this
wasn't envisioned in the master plan, but a master plan is a living document. If we did not
amend master plans, we would not have an Ever Vail, a Front Door, or similar projects.
He said you may hear we have enough development. He said everyone is tired of this, but there
are ways of mitigating construction. He said if Triumph was selected, he would be able to
mitigate development, as he did in the Willows. He said Triumph is motivated to do the right
thing for the community, to solve issues that are not unique to Vail. This will help show that
Triumph can solve community issues.
Rick Pylman, Pylman and Associates, representing the applicant discussed the "technical"
aspects of the project. He noted that the goals in the master plan do not need to change, as the
project would meet all of the goals in the master plan today. He said adding paragraph 4.2
would allow for details on this project. He said in the land use plan map on page 50 of the
Master Plan would detail section 4.2, showing retail /office and residential. The changes are to
the transportation center sub -area. The review criteria are really important, and there are three,
required to meet two. How have conditions changed since the plan was adopted? He said
conditions have changed quite a bit. He said there was a perception that Vail Village was across
the covered bridge. He said this is no longer true with improvements that have occurred on the
north side of the covered bridge. The landscape buffer was in place when the master plan was
created, and it identified existing conditions. He said it was there because it was the most
economically viable way of structurally supporting that side of the parking garage. Is there a
better way for the community to screen that side of the parking garage? He said since the
Sonnenalp redevelopment and One Willow Bridge redevelopment, it is a vastly better place to
walk. People come to Vail for the shopping and strolling activity. From the Slifer Plaza west to
Solaris, we have improvements on one side of the road, but this project would make a better
pedestrian connection. The changes to the master plan would allow more exploration of the
concept. The next criteria: is the master plan in error? No, but conditions have changed. Is the
project in concert with the master plan in general? Yes. There are no changes except changes
to the sub area, and all of the goals support that. To be brief, they can meet two of the review
criteria. There are covenants in place on the Vail Village Parking Structure, and he believes they
will not impede the project. He said they are comfortable with discussion.
Virostek said that this project will allow for a new structural system, creating independence for
the Vail Village Parking structure. This will allow for redevelopment of the parking structure, with
a rail solution, more density, etc. He said some issues can be solved right now, while other
issues like rail will be solved later.
Bob Sinclair, owner at the Mountain Haus since 1970, coming to Vail since 1968. He comes
from an area near Seattle. He said the image or dream he has all year, is the wonderful open
space that makes Vail the unique place that it is. He said that this project is not compatible with
Vail's work to be stewards of the environment. He said this location is really the front door to Vail,
and this is the impression people take home with them when they leave. Any urbanization of this
area will give the wrong impression to visitors. He said Vail creates memories that turn into
dreams that people have, pushing them to come back.
Page 5
Axel Wilhelmsen, property owner and merchant in Vail, said that this is a great use of the space.
It's a space that while considered open space, it is not used as an open space. Many people
can't even fathom what is there today because it is not used as open space. We have a lot of
open space around us. In Zermatt, Switzerland, there is a tremendous amount of open space.
But in the core of the village, it has been built out for centuries. It does not detract from the
experience of coming to Zermatt. For the proposed development, he gives his support.
Tim Hargrave, general manager of The Wilows, said he would like to lend support to the project.
He said the Sonnenalp has improved Meadow Drive a lot, and before redevelopment, Meadow
Drive was a busway. He said this project will further the improvements to Meadow Drive, and
the employee housing would be a great way to bring back families to town.
Ted Wininger, started coming to Vail in 1982, came to Vail and rented until they could find a
place in Vail. They could never find a place that was affordable to them, and ended up moving
to Eagle. He would love the opportunity to live in the Village in an affordable housing
development.
Steve Hawkins, general manager of the Mountain Haus, said he would make several brief points.
In Vail, there are 92 properties available for less than $1 Million. He went into detail about what is
available in that range of price points. He said there is already a great deal of properties
available for sale. If we would have put this type of development on the property, it would now
not be available for use today. The objective of Goal 4 is to improve existing open space and
provide new plazas. This is part of the fabric of the community. The open space and the history
of the Village provides a better product than other communities. He said this project may
preclude the parking structure from expansion for monorail. He also said this is a critical public
policy issue of using public land for private development. He said this provides a buffer between
the Mountain Haus and the parking structure. The open space in front of the building is a great
use until the development occurs for the entire property. If this had been built in Lionshead, you
would not have the options you have now to redevelop the site. Lets make sure the Village is
ready for new development, and that the site is ready and intact before any partial development
occurs. Congestion in that area is of major concern, especially because of skier drop off.
Blocking views, more congestion are both issues. Future needs need to be addressed, and this
project only addressed existing needs. But where does it end? There is a beautiful park nearby,
and will that be used for development? Each park is important to the fabric of the village. It
scares him that pretty pictures can take the discussion out of land use and Vail's needs. The
discussion should be able the long term future of Vail. Reject any attempts to amend the master
plan.
Kaye Ferry, resident, said she opposes the sale of public land and further opposes giving it
away.
Stan Cope, managing director for Vail Mountain Lodge and Spa, represents the ownership of the
property, said he disagrees with Rick Pylman. He said the Vail Mountain Lodge and Spa is not
unattractive. The key to this is the berm. The berm is a buffer that is important. He said if the
whole property was redeveloped, he would hope that there would be a setback. The Vail
Mountain Lodge and Spa is 30 feet from this proposal, with 18 rooms facing this proposal. He
said the Town of Vail runs buses up and down Meadow Drive. And there are major noise issues.
He noted that the Town needs to prioritize redevelopment of outdated properties in the Village,
rather than focusing on new development. He also stated that the only buffer parking and the
Village should not be eliminated.
Rich Selph, long time visitor and new resident highlighted the Master Plan's recommendation to
preserve open space and noted that it sets Vail apart from other ski resorts who could not resist
Page 6
developing every inch. He is also concerned about what public property will be developed next.
He believes that despite how tasteful the architectural drawings the affect will be a movie lot
appearance rather than a mountain village. Deviating from the master plan would be a breach of
faith with the community and the adjacent owners.
Robby Moore, Mountain Haus owner, remembered being able to see the ski mountain from the
parking lot in the 1960's, and he believes the buffer was intentional when the parking structure
was built to preserve such views. The landscaped area is a closing image for guests leaving
Vail.
Jim Lamont, Vail Homeowner's Association, who remembers being part of this project since the
1970's. He agrees with the representatives of the Mountain Haus that the parking area was the
origins of Vail. He noted that this project is similar to other projects in Vail's history. He did
admit that times have changed, but the community does not appear to know where it is going.
He cautioned that any project on Town property must be thoroughly vetted and timed properly.
He believes there are other priorities in the communities, and we can not be permitted to be
distracted by anyone proposing to amend the Town's master plans. He expressed concerns that
the Lionshead Parking project has gone no where at a high cost of time and money. He is
concerned that the Town doesn't have a long range plan and now will grasp for any development
with the threat of a down economy. He noted that Vail's new economic model from recent
development is not tested. Numerous other projects in Lionshead still need to be redeveloped
prior to shifting priorities to a new development in the Village. He stated that a large portion of
the county's workforce may leave the county with the downturn in construction and real estate.
He believes the Village is already functional and competitive with other resorts, and we need to
stay focused. Timber Ridge needs to the focus of employee housing, Simba Run underpass in a
priority of transportation, Ever VailMest Lionshead is a critical project that may give confidence
to other developers and investors, the government should not be competing with the private
sector developers with private projects on public lands. He also noted that the designer of the
landscaping was a world class designer and was done very intentionally. The community must
recognize there are unintended consequences to such a project and this use of public land is
unprecedented.
Andrew Purdy, East Vail resident, noted that the applicant's claim of off - season benefits and
employee housing. He believes the Vail voters should have the ability to decide how to use their
land.
John Thoreau, local skier and commercial builder in Denver, described the visual quality of the
area. He stated a desire to preserve and even enhance the natural look of the parking structure
berm. He noted that he is bidding jobs at 7% profit, not 10% being proposed by the applicant.
He also has concerns about developing this parcel, rather than preserving it for a future use. He
is concerned developing this parcel now is buying high, rather than buying low.
George Ruther clarified the intent of the work session, and reiterated that no final decision is
requested at this time.
Commissioner Viele noted that he does not believe the applicant has standing to file the
application.
Commissioner Kjesbo agreed with Jim Lamont. He has concerns about the affordability of the
EHU's, he would like to see the results of the ongoing construction projects prior to moving
forward with a proposal to amend the Vail Village Master Plan.
Page 7
Commissioner Tjossem agree with Commissioner Viele and is concerned about the timeliness of
selling /leasing public land at this time. She is concerned about the affordability of the EHUs.
Commissioner Pierce stated his concern about preserving the intent of using this land for
parking. He would like to see a consistent policy in accepting applications where deed
restrictions affect properties.
Commissioner Paladino agreed with Commissioner Pierce and Commissioner Viele.
George Ruther clarified that the Town Council did grant the applicant the authority to proceed
forward through the process.
Commissioner Kurz believes the proposed density is egregious. He is not in favor of revising the
Master Plan until the "dust has settled" on current development projects, and believes the
proposal is contrary to the goals of the community.
60 Minutes
5. A request for a work session for a review of a preliminary plan for a major subdivision, pursuant
to Chapter 13 -3, Major Subdivision, Vail Town Code, to allow for the creation of two lots for the
redevelopment of the properties known as "Ever Vail" (West Lionshead), located at 862, 923,
934, 953, and 1031 South Frontage Road West, and the South Frontage Road West right -of-
way/Unplatted (a complete legal description is available for inspection at the Town of Vail
Community Development Department), and setting forth details in regard thereto. (PEC080062)
Applicant: Vail Resorts, represented by Mauriello Planning Group, LLC
Planner: Warren Campbell
ACTION: Tabled to December 22, 2008
MOTION: Kjesbo SECOND: Kurz VOTE: 5 -0 -0
Commissioner Viele departed prior to the start of this item due to a commitment.
Warren Campbell gave a presentation per the staff memorandum and outlined the discussion
points for today's work session.
Greg Hall, Public Works Director, gave a presentation summarizing the transit and transportation
topics associated with this proposal.
Jim Lamont, Vail Homeowners Association, noted that there a key issues of contention that must
be resolved in a timely manner such as circulation and parking. He asked if the Town should
build the long term road improvement solutions or can those be constructed in phases. He noted
that the Simba Run underpass will be a critical element to Vail's future success and the issue
must be thoroughly researched and studied. He does not believe a simple pedestrian bridge is a
viable solution for the future of Vail. In speaking with other development projects, there are
methods available to optimize the existing developments. He recommended a compromise in
the number of required parking spaces based upon public access to properly managed parking.
The community can not afford to consider increasing the skier numbers until the community's
infrastructure needs have been addressed.
Tom Miller, Vail Resorts, along with other members of the development team gave a
presentation about the circulation and transportation internal to the Ever Vail project.
Jim Lamont, representing the Vail Homeowners Association, spoke to the fact that circulation
and parking are issues currently and only become more so as time passes. He spoke to the
need to address the comments discussed in Greg Hall's presentation and not repeat past
Page 8
mistakes. He added that Simba Run is needed without question even if it means large retaining
walls adjacent to Gore Creek.
Diane Johnson, representing Eagle River Water and Sanitation District ( ERWSD), stated that the
District had provided comments to the Community Development Department per the referral
request that was sent out to 12 other agencies. She added that ERWSD was in conversations
with Vail Resorts regarding the feasibility of relocating the facility to another location on the site.
That study was to be done at the end of January. She concluded that currently Vail Resorts and
ERWSD were actively in conversations and it was a positive exchange.
The Commissioners followed the public input by asking the questions that had been generated
by hearing the presentation. It was restated that the intent was not to answer all the questions
today but to begin to create a list of questions that would be addressed at the start of the next
work session hearing.
Commissioner Paladino asked where the Frontage road Realignment was in the CDOT process.
Greg Hall stated that several conversations with CDOT have occurred regarding the Frontage
Road realignment and they appear to be open to the realignment so long as there is no cost to
them and the Town sponsors the application. He added that the Simba Run underpass has
been on their project list since 1993 and if funding became available the project could move
forward.
Commissioner Pierce stated the road looks wide with a 10 -foot shoulder, two lanes in each
direction a median and a bike path /sidewalk on the south side. Was all this a given and was
there more opportunity for landscaping?
Greg Hall stated it was necessary to guarantee traffic flow per the projected traffic increases
Commissioner Paladino asked who pays for the road relocation?
Greg Hall stated that the cost of the relocation would be the responsibility of Vail Reoorts
Development Company.
Commissioner Tjossem asked if this triggered the TOV taking over the Frontage Roads?
Greg Hall responded that it would not.
Commissioner Pierce asked where can we get breaks in the proposed road for landscaping? He
continued by stating that walking next to the Frontage Road is not a good experience. There
needs to be a break in the chain of pavement. Are there opportunities for more islands in the
center of the proposed road?
Commissioner Tjossem asked why have a redundant bike path along the Frontage Road?
Greg Hall responded that the bike path along the Creek was not open year round and this path
would be available year round.
Commissioner Tjossem asked about the turning movements in and out of the proposed parking
structure? How does this work without a roundabout?
Commissioner Pierce asked how many parking spaces are there on the east versus west?
Page 9
Commissioner Tjossem asked if switching the percentages on the turning movements impacted
the LOS? She further stated that she would like to have residential, office, and commercial stats
for the Village and Lionshead to use as a comparison when evaluating Ever Vail. She requested
data on the number of skier days out of each portal and what is anticipated in Ever Vail. She
then asked about the provision of greater parking in order to address parking and days on the
Frontage Road.
Commissioner Kjesbo asked about the parking that would replace the West Day Lot, North Day
Lot, and Holy Cross Lot and how they would be accessible to Vail Resorts employees?
Commissioner Pierce asked if there was parking under the proposed Frontage Road? He further
asked that plans be provided that show pedestrian and transit connectivity to the Lionshead
Core?
Commissioner Tjossem asked for the skier drop off locations?
Greg Hall added that transit needs and circulation need further study as the needs go beyond in
Town buses. It includes Eagle County and charter buses.
Commissioner Tjossem asked where does the in -town bus go? Is the bus being at the east end
of the project too far from the parking structure?
All the commissioners generally wondered what would energize the easternmost portion of the
site with people.
Commissioner Tjossem asked how the grade of the proposed Frontage Rroad relocation down
to the Simba Run round -about compared to the grade of the Frontage Road in front of Donovan
Park
Commissioner Kurz requested additional information regarding the ERWSD facility with regard to
odor and accessibility for emergencies.
Commissioner Kjesbo stated that he has been on PEC the longest and has some issues that
need to be addressed. He was concerned that the employee housing obligation on other
projects has not been met. Like everyone, he believed that the offices were going to go back
into Arrabelle and they will not and have been remaining in temporary locations. Parking and
public parking are still an issue. He is concerned with moving forward on another large
development with obligations still lingering. He concluded by stating that there should be away
to ski back to Ever Vail as it would simplify some of the transit circulation concerns.

sq. ft.
2. The number of allowable open house signs should not be increased from the
current one on -site and one off -site sign (total of two signs).
Bill Gibson gave a presentation per the staff memorandum.
Michael Kurz recused himself as the group he represents has numerous real estate agents
within in it and he did not feel he could act without bias.
Cynthia Kruse, Vail Board of Realtors, stated that the Board of Realtors is very concerned about
having Vail appear as if it was "on sale ". She noted that home sellers are Vail taxpayers, buyers
are soon to be taxpayers, and realtors all obligated to help sellers advertise their properties in
the manner they prefer. She recommended increasing the number of directional signs to at least
three. However, she believed five signs would more appropriate for the far reaches of East Vail.
She noted her concern about the prohibition of directional signs on the Frontage Road and
Bighorn Road, but recognized that signs are currently not permitted on CDOT's right -of -way
property. She recommended increasing the size limits for open house signs from 1'h sq. ft. to 3
or 5 sq. ft., since those are the sizes of most realtors' standard signs. She stated concerns
about limiting the display of open house signs to only three days in one week. While unusual,
some sellers have requested longer open house time frames in order to move their property.
She recommended eliminating any maximum number of days signs could be displayed, since
the signs will be limited to only certain hours in a day and will not be left out over night.
Commissioner Paladino was opposed to increasing the 1 sq. ft. sign size limit. She liked the
proposal to limit the display of signs to only one hour before and after an open house.
Commissioner Pierce supported the proposed clean -ups to the code, but did not support
increasing the number of allowable signs. With GPS, computer mapping programs, information
from the realtors, etc. people should be able to find an open house location without directional
signs. He was concerned about the affect of more signs on the aesthetics of the community. He
added he would be amenable to an increasing the allowable sign size to 3 sq.ft..
Page 11
Commissioner Tjossem was skeptical that home buyers simply drive around looking for open
house sign instead of contacting a realtor or other sources. She was concerned about the affect
on the Town's aesthetics and image with regard to the request for more directional signage.
Commissioner Kjesbo supported increasing the allowable sign size to 3 sq. ft, but did not support
an increase to 5 sq.ft. He did not support increasing the number of allowable open house signs.
He noted that signs are already be posted along the East Vail exit ramps with negative impacts.

Sorry for the delayed response - meant to come see you last week when I
was in town but got jammed with other stuff and didn't get a chance. I
want to get back on as soon as possible but I need to resolve the
hospital issues of access which has been difficult and now very
difficult since Stan Anderson is no longer with the hospital and I can't
get anyone to return a call or tell me who is the right person to deal
with on the issue.
I spoke to George about this last week and he was going to try to get a
meeting with the hospital CEO set up for the Town and us so we can get
this issue behind us and get on to final approval from PEC.
At this point we should probably table out until the July 27, 2009
meeting to be safe. Hopefully we will get the hospital to meet in the
next few weeks and then we can update our drawings and submit a revised
package. Thanks, TJ

Subject: Fairmont VaFil Development Issue
Rachel: As an owner of a condo unit at Vail International, I strongly
object to the irrational attempt by the developer of the Fairmont - and
by the town of Vail - to create an unneeded and unwanted walkway from
the South Frontage Road along Middle Creek connecting to Meadow Drive.
The walkway itself makes no sense whatsoever in this location.
It's particularly annoying to note that the developer of that project
also simply wishes to move a proposed walkway from their side of the
stream to the side closer to Vail International. What a ridiculously
self serving request. That developer's attempt to relieve themselves of
the burden of having to create and pay for this (still) useless walkway
makes no sense at all.
Further. Middle Creek is a historic spawning habitat for trout that
eventually enter Gore Creek which is currently designated as a Gold
Medal Trout Stream. Destroying or modifying the riparian habitat along
Middle Creek has a hugely detrimental effect on aquatic life in that
stream. I have previously documented problems caused by the Town of
Vail when they arbitrarily removed bank side shrubbery and delimbed
trees along the stream close to the Dobson Arena. Suzanne Silverthorne
can attest to this fact.
Should the town make any attempt or plan to remove or alter the
streamside vegetation on this creek, I would immediately file a
complaint with the Colorado Department of Wildlife.
Please cancel this attempted walkway development. There are far better
places to locate such an access point for employees - the best being to
the east side of the proposed Fairmont Vail project.

Subject: Comments concerning Fairmont Vail
Rachel, could you please ensure that this e-mail is included in the Planning and Environmental
Commissioners packet for their Dec. 8, 2008, meeting.
I have attended the past two meetings regarding the redevelopment of the Evergreen property, to be
known as Fairmont Vail. I was dumbfounded when I discovered the developer is now proposing two
options for the river walk located on the west -side of Middle Creek. I regret that I did not speak up at
these meetings regarding this proposal as now it appears as sour grapes.
I have lived at Vail International since 2000. Furthermore, I own two dogs and consequently I walk them
several times a day from early in the morning to late at night. I have never seen a flood or much more
than a trickle of people at the bus stop in front of US Bank. Of course, it gets used, but there are so
many other stops that are used with greater demand. Consequently, I see no benefit to an access point
in between the Fairmont and Vail International that a river walk would provide.
The developer has vocally expressed to the Commission that they do not understand why the Town of
Vail is requiring this river walk. That said, they know they must satisfy this requirement in order to get
approval for their project.
It makes absolutely no sense to construct this on the west side of Middle Creek when the project
proposed is on the east side. Frankly, I see no point in an access route on either side. Once
constructed, the Town of Vail will need to spend taxpayer dollars to maintain this pathway.
Neither proposal is ADA compliant which contradicts past efforts of the town to make our community
more accessible.
Another key concern is the riparian area along Middle Creek. As a periodic fly fishing guide and member
of Trout Unlimited, I am amazed you would even consider impacting this stretch of water. Any removal or
thinning of trees and vegetation along the bank will have an adverse impact to a tributary that feeds into
Gore Creek — a state recognized Gold Medal water.
I am fully aware of mitigation work that could take place. I have a masters degree in environmental
management, and I am a retired Forest Service employee. I have written, reviewed, and commented on
countless environmental impact statements. If the town believes a pathway from the Frontage Rd. to
Meadow drive truly is needed, than I think an alternative route should be considered. The east end of
Fairmont Vail would have far less impact on the environment and would provide better access to the Vail
Valley Medical Center.
I urge you to carefully consider an alternate route away from Middle Creek or dropping this requirement
altogether.

Dear Ms. Friede,
Thank you for your concern and oversight of our beautiful Vail and Lionshead
Villages.
Having been a full time resident at Vail International, I fully agree with
Sue Froeschle's points regarding the placement of the pedestrian bridge,
(see her letter below). My mother is a naturalist and scientist and is in
total agreement with Ms. Froeschle as well. We also agree with the
alternative bridge location.
Thank you for your appreciation and conveyance to the developer.
Very Sincerely,
Andrea R. Haigh
Owner, Vail International Condominiums
Telephone: 970 - 331 -1200
To: Planning and Environmental Commission
From: Vail International Condominium Owners Association
Date: December 1, 2008
Subject: Evergreen Redevelopment Proposal
On behalf of the 56 units and 53 owners at Vail International, we would like
to share our concerns about the pending redevelopment of the Evergreen hotel
and condominium complex to be known as Fairmont Vail.
Sue Froeschle, a member of our Board, has attended meetings held by the
Planning and Environmental Commission concerning the development of Fairmont
Vail. She recently met with Adam Williams, a representative of ARC
Integrated Program Management, Inc. He showed her two preliminary proposals
of the river walk the town is requesting from the developer.
We fully understand these are preliminary proposals and no decisions have
been made by the commission. We understand, however, that at the December
8, 2008, commission meeting, that the commissioners could have a final vote
to approve this redevelopment. We also understand that the commission may
ask for modifications as a condition of approval or they may table a final
decision or deny this request.
We are asking that you consider our position regarding the river walk
location in making any decisions.
First, we oppose a river walk on either side of Middle Creek. We understand
that there is a need for people who are trying to access the Vail Valley
Medical Center. But, people wanting access to the mountain, restaurants, or
shopping are not going to see this as a convenient access point.
Individuals staying at Vail International or the future Fairmont Vail will
not use the river walk. They will, however, continue to use the pathway to
the north of these respective buildings and down past the east side of
Dobson arena. A better access route would be on the east side of Fairmont
Vail. The hospital already has parking at that end through a property
easement from the Evergreen. It would provide a shorter access route and
would have less pedestrian traffic impact to adjoining properties than along
Middle Creek,
Second, by proposing the river walk be on the west side of Middle Creek, we
believe the developer is shirking it's responsibility to the town and using
Vail International to leverage their position of not wanting to do this in
the first place.
Third, we are concerned about the vegetation along Middle Creek. There are
trees that are 40 to 50 feet high that are important to bank stability and
provide effective visual screening. They also protect the trout habitat.
When the town removed and pruned trees at the west end of the hospital
parking lot, there was a noticeable reduction in trout in Middle Creek. It
is only recently, that trout have returned due to new growth. We do not
want to see these trees removed.
Fourth, we are concerned about the gradient of the pathway. The proposal
with stairs is counter to the efforts Vail has made to make the town
accessible. The second proposal to ramp the land with retaining walls is
also counter to this position. The proposal includes a 10 percent grade
which is hardly accessible or ADA compliant.
Fifth, while the town does a very good job of maintaining the existing bike
path behind Vail International and along the east end of Dobson arena, when
there is snow melt and subsequent freezing the pathways are extremely icy.
Neither proposal will provide for safe walking conditions unless they are
heated. The times when many hospital employees might use this pathway going
to and coming from work are times when the pathway may be iciest. If the
town believes this will serve needed access than more people will have to
navigate an icy pathway.
If a final decision is made that includes the river walk on the west -side of
Middle Creek, we plan to exercise our right to appeal this decision.
On another note, we are also concerned about construction workers walking
across our property. This is a particular concern should they park at the
Lionshead parking structure. We have an upper deck parking lot that is
conveniently located adjacent to the west end of the parking structure. We
do not want workers using our property as an access point. We would like you
to address this with the developer. This should be part of their response
to commissioner Susie Tjossem's request to have a worker parking plan
provided to the commission.
PS. As an added note, the developer was asked to provide a drawing showing
access to Vail International from the Frontage Road. I have not seen that
proposal, but plan to do so Dec. 1.
If you need further clarification, please feel free to contact me directly
(see contact information below).

Dear Rachael,
am against the proposal to to build a pathway from Frontage Road to Meadow
Drive on the west side of Middle creek because of the following reasons:
the environmental impact on Middle Creek will be tremendous. Vegetation,
)ushes, trees, soil, rocks, elevations, drainage, etc., will be disturbed
;hances for garbage entering Middle Creek from the proposed walkway will
ncrease and destroy a beautiful trout stream.
r people with disabilities will not benefit from this walkway because of the
;tcepness of the walkway. Ice, snow and water will make this proposed pathway a
/ery slippery walk opening the town of Vail to the potential of many lawsuits.
proposed that the Town of Vail do a study to evaluate both financially and
:nvironmentally the impact to build a pathway on the East side of Middle Creek
and the East side of the new Fairmont Vail development. The Town of Vail should
iot make a decision of this importance without understanding the mayor impact
:his pathway will have on Middle Creek.

Nill use it?
.km I missing something - - - -it is so evident that (if it is necessary at all in connection with

I belongs on the east side of the creek where there would be access to the hospital.
ks a second option should it not be located on the east side of the new Evergreen, across

?lease understand the rational of all of us owners (56) at VI who will be opposing the

Thank you for distributing this message to all TofV officials who will be involved in the

If a pathway is needed from the Frontage Road to the Hospital to assist the hospital employees and patients, it should be
,onstructed on the East side of the present Evergreen which location leads directly to the hospital from the Frontage Road. This
cation would provide immediate pedestrian access to the hospital, rather than walking from the frontage road to the ice skating

Dear Ms. Friede,
VIy family owns Unit 112 at Vail International. Our property faces east and is in the back
A the building, opening to the common grass area at grade level on the first floor. We are
eery concerned about the proposed development plans of Fairmont Vail - particularly the
)roposed path between the two properties. I would like to echo all of the concerns that
VIs. Froesche has expressed.
n addition to her concerns, I would add our thoughts about a safety issue. My husband
ind I spent last September in our unit and were very aware of people walking across the
awn in the early morning hours. We thought that perhaps they were workers at the
lospital arriving for a 2:00 or 3:00 AM shift. Also, on the evenings when Vail was
;P' °brating Octoberfest, we experienced noise and foot traffic across the lawn. A formal
)hul in this area would result in further disturbance and safety problems. The pedestrians
mere within 15 feet of our doors and windows with no landscaped buffer.
would certainly hope that the Town of Vail would insist upon having any path that is
seemed necessary be placed east of Middle Creek.
Thank you for your consideration,
Sincerely,

Re: Vail International Condominium
Owners Association and Fairmont Vail
Dear Members of the Commission:
I have been asked to write this letter on behalf of the 53 condominium unit owners at Vail
International, to enumerate the Association's concerns regarding the redevelopment of the
Evergreen Lodge into the Fairmont Vail hotel and condominium complex.
As you may be aware, Sue Froeschle, a member of the Association's Board of Directors,
attended meetings held by the Commission, and met with Adam Williams, a representative of
ARC, who showed her two preliminary proposals for the river walk that the Town has
requested the developer provide. Based on those meetings, It is my clients' understanding
that no final decisions have been made by the Commission and that you may condition any
approval upon the inclusion of modifications to the existing proposal. Accordingly, the
members of the Vail International Condominium Owner's Association wish to ask that the
Commission consider its comments regarding the proposed location of the river walk, as well
as their concerns about the apparent lack of a plan for construction parking and for access to
the construction site which minimizes their impacts on my clients.
First, my clients wish for me to inform you that their Association opposes a river walk on
either side of Middle Creek; my clients understand that there is a need for people to access the
Medical Center, but do not believe that the general public is going to see this as a convenient
access point, and also believe that individuals staying at Vail International or the future
Fairmont Vail will not use the river walk. They do believe, however, that the public will
continue use the pathway to the North of these buildings which runs down to the East end of
the Dobson Ice Arena.

Re: Vail International and Fairmont Vail
Accordingly, my clients believe that a better access route would be on the East side of
Fairmont Vail. The Medical Center already has parking at that end of its property and my
clients believe that there is already a pedestrian easement in place. My clients also believe that
that route should be chosen because it would provide a shorter access route and because it
would cause less pedestrian traffic impact on the owners of condominiums at Vail
International than would the Middle Creek proposal.
Second, my clients are concerned with preserving the vegetation on the West side of Middle
Creek; there are very old trees with a height of up to 40 or 50 feet which should be preserved
because they are important to the stability of the river bank, and because they provide visual
screening between the adjoining properties. My clients also believe that these trees provide
significant shading and improve the water temperature characteristics of Middle Creek for
the local trout population. Therefore, my clients do not wish to see the existing trees and
other vegetation sacrificed to accommodate an access that will not work well for its intended
users.
Third, my clients are concerned about the grade of the proposed path and believe that it is not
very friendly, and that it may not be ADA compliant, because it includes a ten percent grade.
Fourth, while the Town does do a good job of maintaining the existing bike path behind Vail
International, this pathway can become very icy from time to time. Therefore, my clients
believe that the proposed pathway will sometimes be unsafe in the winter and that it should be
heated, if it is to be constructed.
Finally, my clients are concerned about the number of construction workers who will walk
across their property, and anticipate that the approval of the developer's proposal will only
make an existing problem worse, unless the river walk is moved to the East end of the
Evergreen Lodge property. My clients do not wish to have to assume the additional
inconvenience and liability attendant to having a large number of construction workers using
their upper deck parking for access from the Lionshead Parking Structure to the Fairmont
Vail project, and wish to ask the Commission to require the inclusion of a worker parking
plan which will minimize this impact as a condition for the approval of this project.
My clients do not oppose the redevelopment of the Evergreen Lodge, but naturally hope that
their comments and concerns as long -time Vail residents will influence the Commissioners'
decision.
Thank you for your consideration of these concerns.
Very truly yours,
Brian E. O'Reilly

Dear Ms. Friede,
We are owners of Unit 202 in Vail Int'l. Recent notices have indicated that the
developer of Fairmont Vail has been directed by the Town of Vail to provide a
pathway from the frontage road to Meadow Dr. as part of their redevelopment on
our side of Middle Creek.
Surely, you have received a number of replies from other concerned VI owners
by now but we will add our two cents.
Vvny? What possible good would it be in the first place? Secondly, some
consideration should be given to VI, a fellow member of the Vail community.
Thirdly, common sense and a thorough examination of an idea must pre
before making it an absolute requirement.
We strongly feel the Town Board will fully review this idea and react
appropriately.
Thank you for your consideration,

,C:
Dear Ms Friede,
ks a 22 year property owner at Vail International, former president of the owners'
association and present board member, I urge the Planning and Environmental commission
.o reconsider its position relative to the Middle Creek access proposal.
Vail International has been a valued member of the Vail community for approximately 35
years, and many of its owners are original.
Che present proposal would intrude on Vail International physically, esthetically, and
unctionally. Furthermore, it would impact one of the natural features of the Vail Village
Jionshead scenery(Middle Creek) for something that in the opinion of many would
marginally used, and in questionable need.
I is our position that if such an access is deemed really necessary, then locating it on the
;ast side of the Evergreen redevopment would eliminate the impact on esteemed
leighbor ,provide a location that is more realistic to the proposed usage, an d destroy a
latural setting.
Very truly yours,

Re: River walk proposals next to Middle Creek and Vail International
)ear Commissioners and Ms. Friede:
understand that there are two proposed river walks, both on the West side of Middle Creek by Vail International; one is ramped
ind one has stairs. I respectfully oppose these pathways as planned and suggest a pathway alternative to the East of the
= vergreen, from the Medical Center parking.
Ay concerns about the two proposed river walks on the West side of Middle Creek by Vail International include:
=irst, such proposals are not a convenient route for Medical Staff to reach the South Frontage Road. As the Medical Center is a
najor employer and its Staff could be a high user of a pathway, their needs should be a high concern. Despite the plowing that."W
own of Vail provides, the path between Vail International and Dobson Arena does get icy. The proposed river walks would
)resent a hazard for the Medical Staff getting to work. The planned route would be much longer than the shorter alternative
;uggested above. Stairs in the winter would add to the hazard.
iecond, such proposals would not be a convenient route for shoppers or restaurant goers. Such sage would be limited. Vail
nternational and Fairmont Vail residents would not use the proposed pathway. Egress from concerts at Dobson Arena to the Soutt
=rontage Road would be more advantageously routed to the West, to the proposed parking ramp redevelopment with parking,
estaurants, shops and hotel rooms. Stopped cars on the South Frontage Road to access the pathways would be a hazard.
;urrent bus stops should be utilized rather than adding additional bus stops.
- hird, parents would not want to drop off (or pick up) a child destined for (from) Dobson Arena at a point on the South Frontage
Road, where the parent could not see their child safely enter (leave) Dobson Arena. Often the gear bags of children are too heavy
D tote such a distance, up hill, and with icy conditions.
=ourth, the gradient or stairs of the proposed river walks do not provide the usual convenience of access in which the Town of Vail
ightly takes such pride. The proposed pathways do not appear to be ADA compliant. Such proposals do not consider wheelchair
iccess noting the stairs or the steepness of grade proposed.
=ifth, the proposed river walks would require removal of vegetation including 40 -50 foot trees and bushes. These provide bank
;tability and an environment important to the protection of the trout habitat. In addition, the vegetation provides visual screening
)etween Vail International and the Evergreen /Fairmont Vail. Sadly, Lionshead lacks trees with all the new construction of Arrabelle
hus presenting a hard face. Trees soften the look of buildings. Each and every tree in Vail becomes more dear with the beetle
nfestations in the pines on the mountain.
iixth, I am concerned about the number of construction workers that will walk across the Vail International deck from the Lionshead
larking Structure to the Fairmont Vail project. I respectfully request the Commissioners to require the inclusion of a worker parking
)Ian that will minimize this impact as a condition for the approval of the Fairmont Vail project.
- herefore, I respectfully request the Commissioners to redirect the proposed river walkways to the East of the Evergreen and to
nclude a worker parking plan for the Fairmont Vail project.

From: Jeffrey & Nancy Weston
Owners of Unit 108 at Vail International Condominiums
Re: Proposed River Walk- Fairmont Vail Hotel
My wife and I would like to register our strong objections to the
recently proposed river walk in conjunction with the Fairmont
Hotel Development. We have seen the letter written by our
association attorney and several other responses by other
unit owners and fully agree with the objections raised.
In lieu of restating those issues again in great detail, we would like
to simply state that: (1) the proposed River Walk makes no sense
for either side of the creek based on concerns regarding the
environment, gradients, ADA compliance, realistic contemplated
use, better alternative access paths and general common sense;
and, (2) if there was going to be a River Walk, it should only be
considered for the East end of the Evergreen Lodge property and
not on the Vail International Side. The subject river (stream) is
a natural divide between Evergreen and Vail International. If
the Commission insists on a River Walk in conjunction with the
Fairmont Hotel project on the Evergreen site, it is only logical
and fair that it be located on that side of the stream and not on
the Vail International side. We are sure that if the situation
were reversed, the Evergreen property owners would be incensed
at any proposal to put a River Walk on their side of the stream
in conjunction with a Vail International Development.
If the Commission elects to still proceed with a River Walk on the
Vail International side of the stream, then I am totally in favor
c n appeal by our Vail International attorneys to continue to
c, est this project to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Hopefully, that will not be necessary.
Thank you for your consideration.

Hello Rachael Frieder
We are original owners of a condo at Vail International (33 years). We strongly object to
having a pathway constructed on the west side of Middle Creek leading from Frontage Road
to Meadow Drive.
It is obvious that the persons who will vote on this proposal have not walked the area. It
would then become obvious to them how ridiculous and outrageous their positive vote would
be. This walkway would be a complete waste of money because no one would use it.
Besides it is steep and unsafe for wheelchairs and the disabled.
It does make sense to spend the funds wisely on a pathway from Frontage Road to the
hospital on the East side of the Evergreen /Fairmont Vail project. Then hospital employees
and others would have a shorter, less steep and safer access to Frontage Road from their
area of employment.
