I am sending you this correspondence as I have been made aware that recently some willows on your property were removed without appropriate Design Review approval, in accordance with Section 12- 11 -3A, Design Approval, Vail Town Code, which states the following: "A. Scope: No person shall commence removal of vegetation site preparation, building construction or demolition dumping of material upon a site, sign erection, exterior alteration or enlargement of an existing structure, paving, fencing or other improvements of open space within the corporate limits of the town unless design approval has been granted as prescribed in this chapter. The addition of plant materials to existing landscaping, gardening and landscape maintenance shall be exempt from this provision. " I have the understanding that the willows may have been removed to address the removal of a fence which was entangled within the plants. Removal of the vegetation requires the submittal, review, and approval of a Design Review application prior to the commencement of any work. I would ask that you please call me within 5 business days of the receipt of this letter in order for us to discuss the reason for the removal of the willows, and what your thoughts are with regard to the space moving forward. The Town of Vail will be looking to reestablish vegetation on this portion of your lot to help ensure the water quality and health of Gore Creek You can reach me by phone at 970 - 479 -2148. 1 look forward to speaking with you and discussing an outcome which addresses the water quality and health of Gore Creek along while attempting to balance any goals you might have.

Thanks, john From: gpaxvail@aol.com [mailto:gpaxvail @aol.com] Sent: Friday, August 19, 20118:59 PM To: johnie @johniesgarden.com Subject: Re: Jester Fence removal John, I have no issues with your removing the old fence and cutting back the willows. I am also glad that you decided to reseed with native grasses instead of going with sod. For what it is worth, and with the exception of the small sodded yard I put in the back for my kids to use, I have always tried to keep the landscaping as close as possible to what existed before the lot was developed- low native grasses and wildflowers. The front of the Jesters has a fantastic crop of lupine and snow -in- summer that I hope will continue to flourish and spread (mine got wiped out by whatever those millions of little green bugs are that devour the lupine flowers and seed pods every year). As for giving you an advance approval of whatever the DRB requires, I don't see much point. I would please ask that Staff pass along the DRB comments to me and I will give them my opinion if they really need it. Good luck, Henry Pratt 3827 -B Lupine Drive - - - -- Original Message---- - From: John D Rosenfeld <johnie @johniesgarden.com> To: gpaxvail <gpaxvail @aol.com> Sent: Fri, Aug 19, 2011 5:08 pm Subject: Jester Fence removal Dear Henry, As you know, we have been hired by Beth Jester to remove a section of the chain link fence that had been overgrown by willows over the last many years. The fence had become crushed by the willows' growth and needed to be removed. During the course of removing this fence, we had to prune some of the willows down so that we could free the chain link fence. Once the willows were pruned, we reseeded with native grass seed mix to match the grass in the front. The design Review Board contacted Royale Jester about a permit for the work, and I am completing that for them. I need an email from you that approves of this work, and any remedy that they may impose other than our plans. Will you please respond to this email so that I can forward it to the Design Review Board for our submittal? Thank you on behalf of the Jesters for your attention to this matter. Do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. Sincerely, John Rosenfeld Johnie's Garden Inc 970 - 827 -9200
