is to celebrate the efforts of town employees and their successful facilitation of more
than$1 billion of redevelopment.
Brandmeyer then reported Oktoberfest Mugs were available to council members who
had yet to pick them up.
--Matters from Mayor& Council
Kevin Foley stated he had been made aware the August Council meeting minutes were
not yet posted on the web site. He then expressed concern about the progress of
recreation trail improvements in the Katsos Ranch area in East Vail. Foley also
questioned the continual malfunctioning of outdoor lighting surrounding the Arrabelle at
Vail Square construction site. Town Attorney Matt Mire reported the property owner, Vail
Resorts, had been made aware if the lighting deficiency continued, a public nuisance
citation would be issued. Foley then said recent paving improvements on the North
Frontage Road near the golf course were inadequate. He finished his comments by
questioning whether the removal of trees on construction sites was being closely
monitored.
Gordon complimented Town Librarian Lori Barnes and her staff for becoming more
inclusionary when it comes to issuing library cards. He also complimented the recent
Oktoberfest event, then inquired about the status of the Wendy's parcel, which is due to
close on September21. Gordonalso requested a copy ofthe15-yearcapital budgetand
expressed dissatisfaction with programming by Channel 5, Vail Valley Community
Television. Moffet agreed with the programming concerns and suggested that a full
report on Channel 5's proposed programming be reviewed before the town authorizes
continued funding of the station.
Hitt acknowledged the success of Oktoberfest, as well, while noting the need for
additional portable toilets. He then expressed concern over the continuing I-70 traffic
congestion in West Vail caused by a Colorado Department of Transportation repaving
project.
Moffet encouraged pursuing a lowered speed limit on I-70 through Vail and Dowd
Junction, noting a recent traffic fatality. He then said recerit wildfire mitigation efforts
(tree cutting) in the Buffehr Creek area looked very successful. Moffet finished his
comments by stating the Eagle County Open Space Advisory Committee had recently
recommended a conservation easement be approved for the Gates Ranch. However,
the committee also recommended that a second appraisal be conducted. He then
encouraged the town to explore other potential open space properties to bring forward
forthe committee's consideration.
Hitt reminded Council that open space purchased with Real Estate Transfer Taxfunds in
Vail are i�rtended to remain as open space.
Zemler acknowledged the efforts of Town of Vail emergency response personnel and
coordination of information dissemination following a tanker truck rollover on I-70 over

Council members present: Gordon, Moffet, Slifer, Logan, Fitt, Foley, Newbury
—Citizen Participation
Bill Jewitt asked Council to call for the review of a liquor license approved forthe
Arrabelle at Vail Square, noting potential difficulties in communicating boundary areas to
guests. Town Attorney Matt Mire explained the issue had been discussed during the
Local Liquor Licensing Authority meeting and Council had no authority to call up the
decision. Hitt then asked if Vail�/Ilage could be licensed as a whole, simlarto the
circumstances occu�ring during the Oktoberfest event. Mire explained a single entity
would need to be physically responsible for the licensed area. Logan then thanked Bill
Jewitt for his bngtime participation on Town Council and various town boards. Due to
health reasons, Jewitt has resigned from the Planning and Environmental Commission
and will move to Florida. Jewitt then received an ovation from the crowd.
East Vail homeowner Steve Tovoso asked Council for help resolving a party wall
agreemer�t. Council directed staff to cor�act the gentlemen and offer any information
available.

—Town Manager's Report
Construction Update
Public Works Director Greg Hall provided a town-wide construction update. "Work on the
pedestrian trail at Katsos continues to take place...The Vail Plaza Hotel is working on
getting a landscape easement from CDOT...Paving on the Vail Road chute should be
taldng place over next few days...There will be a three-day closure of Vail Road from
Meadow Drive over the next few days...The Four Seasons will begin landscaping in fror�
of the Main Vail Roundabout in the next few weeks...Streetscape will continue in
LionsHead...The Ritz-Carlton has finished building their Frontage Road access...The
Cascade bike path wi�l be closed through the first week of October...Ad�tional paving
around the roundabouts will take place as fall progresses."
Vail 20/20 Strategic Plan Update
Planner Rachel Friede reported a web-site developed by vsual Strategies meant to
complement the Vail 20/20 visioning process would be too cost prohibitive to implement.
Friede said it would cost$15,000 for a one time start-up fee. It was initially estimated to
cost much less. Therefore, the town will proceed with other publication options for the
20/20 project.
--Parking Policy and Rates Approval
Public Works Director Greg Hall reported the parking policy objectives used in years
past were reviewed by the Parking Task Force. The parking plan policy objectives are:
❑ Service Core Markets.
❑ Skiers, shoppers, employees.
❑ Manage the yield.
❑ Simplify the Product.
❑ Design project so it is revenue neutral.
❑ Increase Safety.
In addition, the Parking Task Force works with the following guidelines:
0 Strongly encourage the use of transit.
❑ Recover transit enhancements costs through parking.
❑ Parking cost increases will be borne by parking.
� Encourage turnover of shopper parking spaces.
❑ Have the rate of the shopper parking track closer to rates in the structure.
❑ Raise the top rate to offset continued increased cost of operation.
❑ Encourage carpooling.
❑ Pass prices reflect a relative value received based on the daiy rate (ie season cost is
based on 21 week at five times per week at daily rate).
❑ Strictly enforce parking violations.
The parking taskforce recommended the following changes to the parking policies for
the 2007-2008 season as follows:
- Rates and parking passes are proposed to adjust per the attached rate structure.
Last year the only pass with an increase was the Gold Pass. Some pass prices have
not been raised in the past five years.
- Expand the use of the"free peak period areas"in West Vail during the 17 day holiday
peak period from Friday, Saturday and Sunday to include a�l days during the peak period
(12/21 —01/06).
- In recognition of significant increases in demand during the early season FOR THIS
YEAR ONLY('07-'08), allow the North Frontage Road in West Vail "free peak period
area"to be used seven days a week up to the beginning of the holiday peak period
(12/21).
- Restrict the construction passes to the LionsHead Structure Monday through
Thursday. New for this year- Do not allow entry to Ford Park or the Soccer Field parking
area on peak days.
- Recommend an increase in the maximum parking violation from$26 to an amount
closerto twice the maximum parking rate, e.g. 2 X$18 = $36 or to mirror shopper
violations($50).
- If the town acquires the former Wendy's property, allow pass parking in that lot.
- Enhance the shoulder of the North Frontage Road area between Wendy's and the
Chamonix bus stop by leveling and providing an asphalt milling surface.
- Consider ponovan Park for the early season only.
- Provide enhanced transit service in the early season and during peak periods forthe
Wendy's bt and North Frontage Road West Vail shoulder parking.
- Enhance the summer parking management of the structures during peak periods
(three additional seasonal positions have been included in the'08 budget).
-This will be the last year current debit card holders can add value to cards without
reapplying and verifying pass use criteria is met. In the '08'09 season, require
reverification of those wishing to purchase debit cards.
- Cone off 50+spaces in the V Ilage Structure during peak times. Release their use in
the 9:30 AM. time period to allow for some employees/guests to have a chance at these
parking spaces.
Hitt clarified a hanging placard will still be required to park in the Ford Park lot and the
proposed reverification of debit card process will be publicly noticed. Moffet expressed
concern that construction workers (as they arrive early in the morning) will obtain prime
parking and Vail's target guest market will not be served. He then encouraged higher
parking rates during peak ski times. He also emphasized, "By reducing vehicles on
Friday and Saturday we can increase safety." Transit Manager Mike Rose stressed
parking enforcement would be enhanced in the upcoming ski season. Hitt then
encouraged enforcing length requirements on vehicles. During the citizen comment
period, Randy Guerrero asked if parking at the Roost was possible. Hall responded the
former hotei may be open again soon. Guerrero then asked who was able to purchase a
value parking pass. He then questioned recent parking increases as they appeared to
happen more frequently. Vail Village business owner Rob DeLuca said �/Ilage
businesses suffered worse from parking restrictions (as their employees required
parking during certain times). He expressed concern that a Gold parking pass ($2,100)
was the only option for business owners to provide parking for their employees. "We
have no realistic way to park." Representing the Vail Chamber & Business Association,
Kaye Ferry joined DeLuca in asking for a pass intended to serve the local business
community. Moffet supported the idea as a pilot program. �lllage business owner Becky
Magoon asked for parking availability cbser to village businesses as loading and
delivery was inconvenient. Moffet moved and seconded by Gordon for preliminary
adoption of the Parking Task Force recommendations with addition review by the
Council of daity parking rates and the pilot merchant pass program at an upcoming
meeting. Hall corifirmed the Parking Task Force would reconvene and provide additional
recommendations prior to the 07-08 ski season. Newbury suggested creation of the pilot
merchant pass program for businesses that have no alternative parking. Foley and
Newbury expressed concern that shopper parking rates are too low. The motion passed
6-1, with Foley opposed. For more information, contact Mike Rose at479-2349.
--Resolution No. 23 Series 2007, a Resolution Approving the Development Agreement
between the Town of Vail and Open Hospitality/Hillwood Capital Partners, Dated as of
September 6,2007
After nearly six months of negotiation, the town and a Texas-besed development group,
Open Hospitality/Hillwood Capital Partners, dba OHP Vail One, LLC ("OHP") have
completed a proposed Development Improvement Agreement(the "AgreemenY') (DIA)
for redevelopmerrt of the LionsHead parking structure. The negotiation described above
was preceded by a year-long competitive review process which included redevelopment
proposals submitted by two developers, and resulted in the selection of OHP by the
Council. Town staff and consultants, along with representatives from OHP, held a
community meeting on September 6, 2007,to review with the public the details of the
agreemer�t. Following the background iriformation, Gordon clarified the town would not
be responsible for any operating deficits associated with the planned coriference center.
The operation of the conference center will be the responsibility of a metropolitan district.
Representing OHP, Mark Masinter said he believed negotiations had been equitable.
He then ensured Council that OHP was requesting fle�ability, only due to unforeseen
circumstances (i.e., labor shortage, terror attack, monetary crisis). When discussing
potential delays, Masinter said, "It would have to just be something horrible for the
project to stop...We are already going to be $40-50 million into this project."
Representing the Vail Chamber& Business Association, Kaye Ferry stated, "I will always
be opposed to the sale of Town of Vail land." She then spoke in opposition to spending
additional dollars on a conference center as the community had voted against a
conference center in 2005. Town legal representative Ma�olm Murray clarified any
amendments to the agreement would require formal action from the Town Council. Tom
Steinberg clarified 1,450 public parking places would be replacing the 1,150 that
currer�ly exist. He then encouraged any private parking spaces included in the project
be available to the public when not occupied. Masinter explained that private parking
would be managed through a valet program. Steinberg then spoke of a fixec�rail system
to help defer the need for additional parking in the long term. Rick Silverman questioned
the financial responsibility of OHP with regard to the proposed conference center.
Representing Starwood Hotels & Resorts, George Boone announced both hotel brands
(W&St. Regis) were excited to be involved in the proposed development. Michael
Cacioppo questioned the ability to build a conference center for the proposed$14 million
amour�t. In response to another question by Cacioppo, Hitt stated Vail Resorts holds a
deed restriction on the property. Therefore, Vail Reso�ts now has"a say"in the
determination of the use of the property. Logan stated, "This single project is the most
important project in terms of making the most progress this town has consistently
identifiedas its two highest priorities, parking and employee housing." Logan
encouraged Council to move forward with the development agreement and categorically
rejectthe recent housing proposal from Vail Resorts. "It is my fondest hope they (Vail
Resorts)choose to work with Mark Masinter to redevelop Timber Ridge." It was then
discussed that the Temporary Certificate of Occupancy(TCO)on the Arrabelle at Vail
Square was contingent upon Vail Resorts' meeting contractual employee housing
requirements. Moffet moved to adopt Resolution No. 23, Series of 2007 with the
changes encompassed in the supplemental document provided. In addition, the mo6on
added additional clarification to the document and included a request by the developer to
albw one year of unilateral flexibility within the project timeline. Michael Cacioppo
questioned whether Slifer and Gordon were able to vote due to a partner/employer
relationship with Vail Resorts. Murray stated the two were eligible to vote. Bill Jewitt
asked that the agreement refer to a West LionsHead location for a third parking structure
development. Reid Weily qualified where Vail Resorts was able to provide their
employee housing (LionsHead area or area designated acceptable by the Planning
Commission). Foley reminded the audience the Ever Vail project has no town approvals.
Hitt said, "I believe this project is premature...But the agreement gives the devebper a
chance to tie up some loose ends." Slifer expressed concern over the construction
disruption that would occur in LionsHead. The motion passed 6-1, with Foley opposed.
For details, contact Matt Mire at 479-2460.
Newbury left the meeting.
--First Reading of the 2008 Budget Ordinance No. 29, Series 2007
During the afternoon work session, Council made no amendments to Ordinance 29,
series 2007 for the 2008 Budget. However, the folbwing comments were provided:
Greg Moffet and Mark Gordon requested a presentation from Vail Valley Community TV
Channel 5 for the October 2 meeting regarding services and the franchise fee they
receive from the town. Moffet also suggested that Council be included in the review of
the Donovan Pavilion Management fee structure. Farrow Hitt asked about property tax
revenue projections and concerns about the possibility of a limit placed on taxes by the
state. Judy Camp clarified the town has legally "de-Bruced"and is not limited in
collection of property tax. She also explained the property tax revenue budget is based
on the County Assessor's assessed value, but discounted to account for taxpayer
appeals. Regarding the recent funding request for the Teva Mouritain Games, the
Council supported the event, and agreed the funding request should go through the
Commission on Special Events. During the evening meeting, Kathleen Halloran
presentedthe General Fund with net revenue overexpenditure of$96,531 and an
ending fund balance of$14.8 million(50% of revenue). Council direction is to have a
35% ratio during this period of redevelopment. Regarding Council Contributions, Farrow
Hitt inquired about getting more prevalent advertising for the Town of Vail as a sponsor
of the Birds of Prey ever�(produced by the Vail Valley Foundation). He also requested
confirmation of Vail Resort's matching contribution to the Vail Chamber & Business
Association for the Premier Impressions program. Halloran agreed to provide this for the
October 2 meeting, and 2nd reading of the 2008 Budget. Moffet moved to approve the
ordinance with Hitt seconding. The motion passed 5-1, Foley opposed. Foley stated he
was dissatisfied with the percentage of the budget spent on salaries and benefits.
Zemler responded, "We ask every department to qualify every aspect of what they do."
For details, contact Kathleen Halloran at 479-2116.
—Ordinance No. 30, Series of 2007, An Ordinance Amending Title 1, Chapter 5, Section
8,"Compensation"of the Town Code
Moffet moved to approve the ordinance with Gordon seconding. The motion passed 5-1,
with Foley opposed. Mire stated accorc�ng to Town Charter, Council Members are not
to benefit from increased compensation brought about by their own vote. Subsequently,
Hitt and Gordon (both with two years remaining on their terms) are not eligible to receive
a salary increase during their currerit terms. Gordon and Fitt both said they supported
the vote because they wanted individuals with economic diversity on Town Council. The
ordinance increases council compensation from$500 per month to $625 per month and
retains the salary for mayor at$1,000 per month, effective January 1, 1998. For mor�e
information, contact Matt Mire at 479-2460.

(10/12/.2007)Warren Campbell -Solaris Easement � L Page 1 ;,
From: Tom Kassmel
To: Matt Mire; Warren Campbell
Date: 10/09/2007 3:58 PM
Subject: Solaris Easement
Warren
Got the Easement Draft.
The document talks about an easement granted by the Town to Solaris,the exhibit shows and easement that should be to
the Town from Solaris.
The document is referring to the stairs which are located in Public ROW, i do not think we can grant an easement on Public
ROW, maybe a lisence agreement is more applicable or just the revocable ROW permit.
The exhibit shows the easement across solaris property but does not include an area that is covered. I believe the public
benefit was a covered busstop area.
Lets talk about it tomorrow after DRT.
