Dear Mr. Rither:
As a residential owner in the Gateway Building at 12 Vail Road, I want to express my concern about a new
tenant who may be operating a "wet-lab" in our building. If this is true, it is my opinion that a business of this
nature should not be allowed to operate in a residential building, especially one that also includes a high-end
restaurant.
I cannot speak to the specific zoning laws within the city of Vail, but common sense tells me that a business of
this nature does not belong in a mostly residential building, in Vail Village.
I have a feeling that if our neighbors at the Sebastion, the Four Seasons and others were made aware of this,
they too would be on board to opose the opening of this business, if not solely for logistical reasons, then
possibly for the precedent that is being set. If these people are allowed to operate in the Gateway Building,
what is going to keep a like business from coming to the area and wanting to open in say, Solaris, or The
Arrabelle, or maybe The Lodge...I can only imagine how Vail Resorts would react to something like this.
I appreciate your consideration.
