Home My WebLink AboutFours Season Resort Potholing Request r = I = - ALPINE ENGINEERING, INC. July 8,2005 Mr. Leonard Sandoval Town of Vail 75 South Frontage Road Vail,CO 81657 RE: Four Seasons Resort Potholing Dear Leonard: On behalf of the Owners of the aforementioned project,Alpine Engineering, Inc. (AEn is requesting permission from the Town to pothole for some existing utilities adjacent to the project site. It is anticipated that the proposed potholing will take place not only within the project limits but also within the Vail Road and West Meadow Drive right-of-ways. AEI has selected Rippy Utility Locating services for the non-destructive potholing and CC Enterprises for the traffic control. Currently,it is estimated that approximately 15-20 potholes will be required although this number by be revised depending on the result from previous potholes. CC Enterprises traffic control plan will reflect the need to protect the pedestrian and bike traffic on the West Meadow Drive as well as the pedestrian movements at the existing cross-walk on Vail Road. Further, ingress and egress movements for Shaw Construction on Vail Road will be maintained. Based on our discussions at the site,the potholes will be filled with gravel and topped with 5-inches of cold patch or asphalt millings as a temporary measure. Once the potholing as been completed,the temporary potholes measures will be removed and the holes filled with concrete flowfill and topped with 5-inches of hot bituminous asphalt. Infra-red sealing will not be required for the potholes. Rippy Utility Locating services would like to begin their work next week. We estimate that the potholing will require approximately 3-5 days to complete. I have reviewed the Edwards Business Center•P.O.Box 97• Edwards,Colorado 81632• (970) 926-3373 •Fax(970) 926-3390 � Town of Vail Right-of-Way permit with the contractor. This permit,traffic control plan and the potholing plan will be submitted for your review. We understand that the Town will require a bond for the work which will be done and that you will provide our office with the bond amount prior to the start of construction. I,eonard, should you have additional questions or comments please do not hesitate to call.

The information that will be obtained through this work is necessary to complete design of the relocation of Spraddle Creek. The foundations of the hotel structure depend on the relocation of the creek. If this work is not done until after Labor Day,the project will suffer by extending the date of completion until after the winter season of 2007-2008. If this delay occurs, it may well cause the development to cease. We would request that the developers be given permission to make 5 potholes in Vail Road that would cause some traffic control to be in place limiting the flow of traffia The most critical to tra�c flow will be hole number 1 or the northern most location in Vail Road. We request that this work be done starting at 6:OOPM on Monday,July 18, 2005. The remainder of the locations, holes 2,3,4 and 5 will be done during regular working hours between 8:00 AM and 6:00 PM on ' Tuesday July 19 and Wednesday July 20,2005. Traffic control will also be required. There will be additional potholing work along the right-of way but should not affect any traffic flow or require traffic control. This work will also take place during the above time frame and hopefully be completed by July 21, 2005. No potholing will be done on West Meadow at this time but will be required and requested be performed after Labor Day 2005.
