RE: Extension to the Conditional Use Permit to allow for Temporary Office Uses at Treetops,
located at 450 East Lionshead Circle.
Dear Planning and Environmental Commissioners:
At this time, the owner of the Treetops Commercial Space, 450 Buffalo Properties LLC, is
requesting an extension to the Conditional Use Permit to allow for Temporary Office Uses at
Treetops. The existing Conditional Use Permit expires on August 30, 2012. Due to time
constraints and lease requirements, we are requesting this extension early so that we can
adequately prepare for the future.
This property has been used as temporary office space following the displacement of Vail
Resorts ofFices from the Core Site. Since then, the economic downturn has slowed
redevelopment substantially and the relocation of these ofFice uses has taken longer than
expected. It is our wish to have temporary ofFice uses continue in this current location. We
recognize that based on the PEC's recommendation with regard to the recent text amendment
to allow ofFice uses on the first floor as a permanent solution is not considered a viable option.
However, we believe another three-year extension will allow the current use or other displaced
office users to have a viable location in Vail until new ofFice space becomes available as part of
the Ever Vail project. Perhaps after another three year period the economy will have improved
enough and the Town's streetscape improvements will have been fully implemented and thus
the ability to attract a retail type use will be viable at this location.
As an extension to the previous 2009 approval, the criteria and findings for this conditional use
permit for temporary office uses at Treetops have been addressed previously. Staff
recommended approval and the staff memorandum has been attached for reference
(Attachment A).
The previous approval included the following conditions and minutes from this meeting have
been attached for reference (Attachment B):
1. The approval of this conditional use permit extension shall be valid until August 30,
2012.
2. If Vail Resorts vacates the first floor office space, then this temporary business office
conditional use permit shall no longer be valid.
At this time, we are requesfing that the extension shall be valid for 3 years from the date of the
previous approval, or August 30, 2015.
In addition, as you can see from the minutes from the last approval, there was discussion
regarding tying the conditional use permit to Vail Resorts offices. At this time, we are
requesting that the conditional use permit not be tied to Vail Resorts specifically. Our concern is
that if Vail Resorts chooses to relocate to other ofFice space, such as the Glen Lyon OfFice
Building or the Vail Professional Building, they will be displacing other office uses, and we would
like the opportunity for these uses to remain in Vail, rather than being displaced down-valley.
Once these uses have moved down-valley, it is challenging to attract these uses back to Vail.
Thank you for your time and consideration of this matter.
Sincerely,
Dominic Mauriello, AICP

MEMORANDUM
TO: Planning and Environmental Commission
FROM: Department of Community Development
DATE: March 9, 2009
SUBJECT: A request for a final review of an amendment to an existing conditional use
permit, pursuant to Section 12-16-10, Amendment Procedures, Vail Town Code,
to allow for the extension of an existing temporary business office conditional use
permit, located at 450 East Lionshead Circle (Treetops Building)/Lot 6, Vail
Lionshead Filing 1, and setting forth details in regard thereto. (PEC090004)
Applicant: 450 Buffalo Properties, represented by Michael Hecht
Planner: Bill Gibson
SUMMARY
The applicant, 450 Buffalo Properties, represented by Michael Hecht, is requesting a
final review of an amendment to an existing conditional use permit, pursuant to Section
12-16-10, Amendment Procedures, Vail Town Code, to allow for the extension of a
conditional use permit to allow for a temporary business office located at 450 East
Lionshead Circle (Treetops Building)/Lot 6, Vail Lionshead Filing 1, and setting forth
details in regard thereto.
Based upon Staff's review of the criteria outlined in Section VII of this memorandum and
the evidence and testimony presented, the Staff recommends approval, with
conditions, of this request subject to the findings noted in Section VIII of this
memorandum.
II. DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST
The applicant is proposing an extension of the conditional use permit allowing the
existing Vail Resorts temporary business offices to occupy the first-floor retail spaces of
the Treetops Building for an additional three years, until 2012. A vicinity map
(Attachment A) and the applicanYs request (Attachment B) have been attached for
reference.
III. BACKGROUND
On November 16, 2004, the Vail Town Council adopted Ordinance No. 26, Series of
2004, to allow "Temporary Business Offices" on the first-floor of buildings within the
Lionshead Mixed Use 1 District. The purpose of this ordinance is to allow existing
Lionshead area office uses, which are displaced by the construction activities of
redevelopment projects, to be temporarily relocated within the Lionshead area. A
"Temporary Business Office" was defined as "an office for the conduct of general
business and service activities and transactions for a limited period of time to
accommodafe the temporary displacement of an existing business office with the Town
of Vail due to redeve/opment construction activities."
On January 4, 2005, the Planning and Environmental Commission approved a
conditional use permit for Vail Resort's temporary business offices currently occupying
the first-floor of the Treetops Building. This temporary conditional use permit was to
expire upon issuance of a temporary certificate of occupancy for the Arrabelle Hotel
(which has since been issued), the issuance of a temporary certificate of occupancy for
the North Day Lot office building (which has not been constructed), or on January 24,
2008.
On June 11, 2007, the Planning and Environmental Commission approved an extension
to this temporary conditional use permit until January 24, 2009.
On August 7, 2007, the Vail Town Council adopted Ordinance No. 22, Series of 2007, to
give the Planning and Environmental Commission the authority to grant extensions to
any temporary business office conditional use permit in increments of up to three (3)
additional years.
On August 25, 2008, the Planning and Environmental Commission approved an
extension to this temporary business office conditional use permit until August 30, 2009.
On October 7, 2008, the Vail Town Council upheld the Commission's August 25tn
decision on appeal.
Recently the applicant, 450 Buffalo Properties, submitted an application to amend the
Lionshead Mixed Use 1 District to allow certain offices to be permanently allowed on the
first-floor in Lionshead subject to a conditional use permit. The applicanYs primary goal
in submitting this request was to facilitate the approval of a long-term office tenant in
their Treetops Building first-floor tenant space.
On February 9, 2009, the Planning and Environmental Commission recommended the
Town Council deny the applicanYs proposed text amendments. At the same hearing,
the Commission informally recommended the applicant pursue another extension to the
conditional use permit allowing the existing temporary business offices at Treetops
rather than pursuing amendments to the Vail Town Code.
On February 17, 2009, the Town Council denied the applicanYs recent request to amend
the Vail Town Code to permanently allow offices on the first floor in Lionshead.

Section 12-16-1: Purpose; Limitations
3
In order to provide the flexibi/ity necessary to achieve the objecfives of this title,
specified uses are permitted in certain districts subject to the granting of a
conditiona/ use permit. Because of their unusual or special characteristics,
conditional uses require review so thaf they may be located properly with respect
to the purposes of this tifle and with respect to their effects on surrounding
properties. The review process prescribed in fhis chapter is intended to assure
compafibility and harmonious development between conditional uses and
surrounding properties in the Town at large. Uses listed as conditional uses in
the various disfricts may be permitted subject fo such conditions and limitations
as the Town may prescribe to insure that the location and operation of the
conditional uses will be in accordance with the development objectives of the
Town and will not be detrimental to other uses or properties. Where condifions
cannot be devised, to achieve these objectives, applications for conditional use
permits shall be denied.
12-16-7, Use Specific Criteria and Standards (in part)

B. Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan
Policy Objectives
:�
V
VI.
The Town Council adopted six policy objectives on November 4, 1996 to outline
the important issues to be addressed in the master plan and to provide a policy
framework for the master planning process.
2.3.1 Renewal and Redevelopment
Lionshead can and should be renewed and redeveloped to become a warmer,
more vibrant environment for guests and residenfs. Lionshead needs an
appealing and coherent identify, a sense of place, a personality, a purpose, and
an improved aesthetic character.
2.3.2 Vitality and Amenities
We must seize the opportunity to
interaction through expanded and
performing arts venues, conference
other recreational improvements.
ZONING ANALYSIS

Zoning: Lionshead Mixed Use 1 District
Land Use Plan Designation: Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan Area
Current Land Use: Temporary Business Office
Development Standard ReQUired Proposed
Parking 14.6 spaces 21.13 spaces (no change)
As this conditional use permit request only affects the use of an existing tenant space
and does not propose any exterior changes to the existing building; this conditional use
permit proposal does not alter the existing lot area and site dimensions, setbacks,
building height and bulk, density, gross residential floor area (GRFA), site coverage, or
landscaping and site development. The only development standard affected, other than
use, is parking. This proposal increases the parking demand for this tenant space from
12.5 to 14.6 parking spaces. The existing Treetops commercial building currently has
surplus parking, and if this proposal is approved, the Treetops commercial building will
still exceed its minimum parking requirement by 6.53 parking spaces.

VII. REVIEW CRITERIA
Zoninq
General Use District
Natural Area Preservation District
Lionshead Mixed Use 1 District
Lionshead Mixed Use 1 District
Before acting on a conditional use permit application, the Planning and Environmental
Commission shall consider the following factors with respect to the proposed use:
1. Relationship and impact of the use on the development objectives of the Town.
Staff believes the approval of the conditionai use permit extension for "temporary
business office" uses on the first floor of the Treetops Building is consistent with the
intent, purpose, and standards of the Vail Town Code. The purpose of a temporary
5
business office conditional use permit is not to allow the permanent relocation of a
business office use to a location not generally allowed by the zoning standards of the
Lionshead Mixed Use 1 District. Instead it is anticipated that once redevelopment
construction activities are completed, a temporarily displaced business office will return
to its original development site or to a new permitted location.
At this time, Vail Resorts will not be constructing replacement office spaces at either the
Arrabelle or North Day Lot properties. Instead Vail Resorts is proposing to construct a
permanent location for the temporary Treetops business offices at the future Ever Vail
project in west Lionshead.
Since a permanent location for the business office displaced by the Arrabelle
development project have not yet been constructed, Staff recommends approval of the
applicanYs request to extend the existing temporary business office conditional use
permit until 2012.
2. The effect of the use on light and air, distribution of population, transportation
facilities, utilities, schools, parks and recreation facilities, and other public
facilities needs.
Staff does not believe this proposal will have a significant negative effect on the above
criteria in comparison to existing conditions.
3. Effect upon traffic with particular reference to congestion, automotive and
pedestrian safety and convenience, traffic flow and control, access,
maneuverability, and removal of snow from the street and parking areas.
As this proposal exceeds the minimum parking standards of the Vail Town Code, Staff
does not believe this proposal will have a significant negative effect on the above criteria
in comparison to existing conditions.
4. Effect upon the character of the area in which the proposed use is to be located,
including the scale and bulk of the proposed use in relation to surrounding uses.
This proposal does not involve any exterior changes to the existing Treetops Building.
Therefore, Staff does not believe this proposal will have significant negative effects upon
the architectural character of the surrounding area. However, Staff also believes that
any permanent, or quasi-permanent, establishment of office uses on the first floor of the
Treetops Building will be detrimental to the retail character of the neighborhood.
VIII. STAFF RECOMMENDATION

Environmental Commission approves this amendment to an existing conditional use

1. A request for a final review of an amendment to an existing conditional use permit, pursuant to
Section 12-16-10, Amendment Procedures, Vail Town Code, to allow for the extension of an
existing temporary business office conditional use permit, located at 450 East Lionshead Circle
(Treetops Building)/Lot 6, Vail Lionshead Filing 1, and setting forth details in regard thereto.
(PEC090004)
Applicant: 450 Buffalo Properties, represented by Michael Hecht
Planner: Bill Gibson
ACTION: Approved, with conditions
MOTION: Kurz SECOND: Proper VOTE: 6-0-1 (Pierce recused)
CONDITION(S):
1. The approval of this conditional use permit extension shall be valid until August 30,
2012.
2. If Vail Resorts vacates the first floor office space, then this temporary business office
conditional use permit shall no longer be valid.
Bill Pierce recused himself due to a conflict of interest as the property has been his client
numerous times in the past.
Warren Campbell made a presentation per the staff memorandum.
Ross Davis, attorney representing the applicant, appreciated the staff's hard work. On behalf of
the applicant he expressed his belief that the application met the criteria prescribed for a
conditional use permit.
Chris Jarnot, Vail Resorts, expressed his support for the application and expressed that Vail
Resorts is planning to move their existing office uses from Concert Hall Plaza over to this
location and other locations. He thanked the Commission for their continued support and open
minded thinking. He is hopeful that within three years a permanent location would be found.
Jim Lamont expressed the importance of the Lionshead redevelopment Master Plan and
understood that an interim use may be acceptable. He believed that the continuation of the
conditional use permit was in keeping with the goals of the Master Plan. He stated that if Vail
Resorts, current tenant, left the office space, then that should trigger the re-evaluation of the
conditional use permit.
Commissioner Kurz was supportive of the extension and commented that it seems practical to
keep the office uses in that location.
Page 1
Commissioner Paladino was in support and added that it is valuable to have office in Lionshead
to support the neighboring businesses.
Commissioner Proper supported the extension and wished to tie the approval of a conditional
use permit to this specific tenant.
Commissioner Viele was in support, but did not believe the conditional use permit should be tied
to this specific tenant.
Commissioner Kjesbo agreed with Lamont and Proper that the conditional use permit should be
tied to Vail Resorts, and he was in support.
30 minutes
A request for a final recommendation to the Vail Town Council on a proposed major amendment
to Special Development District No. 39, Crossroads, pursuant to Article 12-9A, Special
Development District, Vail Town Code, to allow for an increase in the number of dwelling units
from 77 units to 78 units; located at 141 and 143 Meadow Drive/Lot P, Block 5D, Vail Village
Filing 1, and setting forth details in regard thereto. (PEC090003)
Applicant: Solaris Property Owner, LLC, represented by Maurieilo Planning Group, LLC
Planner: Warren Campbell
ACTION: Recommendation of approval with condition(s)
MOTION: Kjesbo SECOND: Kurz VOTE: 6-1-0 (Pierce opposed)
CONDITION(S):
The Developer shall address the following conditions of approval prior to appearing
before the Vail Town Council for second reading of an adopting ordinance for the
establishment of Special Development District No. 39, Crossroads:
The Developer shall prepare an amended written agreement, for Town Council
review and approval, outlining the responsibilities and requirements of the required
offsite improvements, as indicated on the proposed Approved Development Plan.
This agreement shall include, but not be limited to, all streetscape improvements
along Village Center Road and East Meadow Drive, public access to the plaza for
pedestrians and Town sponsored events, which may incfude the establishment of an
easement on the plaza and language in the covenants and declarations for owners of
property in the project regarding the use of the plaza for special events, inclusion of
the loading and delivery facility in the overall loading and delivery system, payment
of traffic impact fees and credits given to offset fee, and details for funding public
art.
The Developer shall address the following conditions of approval prior to submitting a
building permit application (a grading permit/excavation permit shall constitute a building
permit);
1. The Developer shall submit a final exterior building materials list, typical wall
section, architectural specifications, and a complete color rendering for review and
approval of the Design Review Board, prior to submittal of an application for a
building permit.
The Developer shall submit a rooftop mechanical equipment plan for review and
approval by the Design Review Board prior to the submittal of a building permit
application. All rooftop mechanical equipment shall be incorporated into the overall
design of the structure and enclosed and visually screened from public view.
Page 2
3. The Developer shall receive all the required permits from the Colorado Department
of Transportation (CDOT) prior to submitting for a building permit. Failure to receive
the appropriate permits to access the South Frontage Road per the Approved
Development Plan will require the project to return through the special development
district review process.
4. The Developer shall comply with the written final comments of the Town of Vail
Public Works Department outlined in the memorandum from the Town of Vail Public
Works Department, dated January 16, 2006, prior to submitting an application to the
Town of Vail Community Department for the issuance of a building permit for this
project.
5. The Developer shall submit a written letter agreeing to install a public safety radio
communications system within the subterranean parking structure which meets the
specifications of the Town of Vail Communications Center. The specifications and
details of this system shall be submitted to staff for review and approval with the
application for a building permit.
6. The Developer shall submit a fire and life safety plan for review and approval by the
Town of Vail Fire Department in conjunction with the building permit submittal.
The Developer shall address the following conditions of approval prior to release of a full
building permit, requesting a temporary certificate of occupancy, or a final certificate of
occupancy;
The Developer shall submit a comprehensive sign program for review and approval
by the Design Review Board, prior to requesting a temporary certificate of
occupancy, or a final certificate of occupancy.
2. The Developer shall be assessed a traffic impact fee of $6,500 per net trip increase in
p.m. traffic. The traffic and trip generation report prepared by Fox Higgins
Transportation Group dated June 2007, that specifically addresses the change in
number of condominium units from 75 to 77, states that the net peak increase is 81
trips, 13 more trips than in the original approved traffic study dated November 2005.
Since the usage of the commercial space is still in flux the Public Works Department
will require that a new study be performed prior to the issuance of a full building
permit to address the traffic generation created by the specific tenants that will lease
the commercial/retail space within the project. This change may cause the trip
generation to increase. The applicant shall be responsible for mitigating the number
of net peak trip increases depicted in the revised study. This impact fee shall not be
offset by any public improvements and shall be paid prior to requesting a temporary
certificate of occupancy or certificate of occupancy.
3. The Developer shall post a bond to provide financial security for 125°/a of the total
cost of the required off-site public improvements. The bond shall be in place with
the Town prior to the issuance of a temporary certificate of occupancy. This
includes but is not limited to the proposed streetscape improvements.
4. The Developer shall commence initial construction of the Crossroads improvements
within three years from the time of its final approval at second reading of the
ordinance establishing Special Development District No. 39, and continue diligently
toward the completion of the project. If the developer does not begin and diligently
work toward the completion of the special development district or any stage of the
Page 3
special development district within the time limits imposed, the approval of said
special development district shall be void. The Planning and Environmental
Commission and Town Council shall review the special development district upon
submittal of an application to reestablish the special development district following
the procedures outlined in Section 12-9A-4, Vail Town Code.
5. Employee Housing: Crossroads shall furnish deed restricted employee housing
sufficient to accommodate 22 occupants by executing appropriate restrictive
covenant(s) on form(s) provided by the Town. Any dwelling unit(s) restricted shall
conform to the following floor area requirements: a one-bedroom unit shall contain
at least 550 sq. ft. of floor area and accommodate no more than 2 occupants; a two-
bedroom unit shall contain at least 850 sq. ft. of floor area and accommodate no
more than 3 occupants; a three-bedroom unit shall contain at least 1,350 sq. ft. of
floor area and accommodate no more than 4 occupants; and a four-bedroom unit
shall contain at least 1,500 sq. ft. of floor area and accommodate no more that 5
occupants. The Town may approve minor variations in floor area when the overall
intent of the floor area requirements is being met. Any deed restriction shall be for
property located within the Town. Such deed restriction(s) shall be executed and
provided to the Town for recording and restricted unit(s) shall be available for
occupancy prior to the issuance of a temporary certificate of occupancy for the
Crossroads Project or any phase thereof. Any deed restricted employee housing
unit shall comply with the standards and procedures established by the Town
Zoning Regulations.
6. The approval of SDD No. 39, Crossroads, shall restrict the uses upon the plaza level
tenant spaces to retail uses solely and shall not be utilized for professional offices,
business offices, and studios. The second floor retail space may be utilized for any
allowable or conditional use as listed in the Commercial Service Center Zone
District. No space noted as retail space on the Approved Development Plan shall be
converted to a residential dwelling unit. Temporary real estate sales offices may be
allowed on the plaza level of retail during the first two years following the issuance
of a certificate of occupancy in order to allow effective sales of dwelling units on-
site.
Warren Campbell made a presentation per the staff memorandum.
Dominic Mauriello, representing the applicant, gave a power point presentation detailing the
request and the reasons for the request.
Ann Bishop, attorney representing the Vail Village Inn Phase III H.O.A., under authority of
Deanne Hall, president, stated they are in support of the proposal.
Connie Knight, resident, asked for clarification on the employee housing requirements.
Gwen Scalpello, resident, stated her concern about the creep up in dwelling units on the site.
She cited that the original approval was for 69 units then it went to 75 then to 77 and now 78
units are proposed. She added that while this space may be chatlenged that a restaurant or
office might be ideal for the space as they tend to be destinations. She pointed out Campo
DiFori which is on a second floor hard to find space, but is successful.
Commissioners Kurz, Paldino, Tjossem expressed their support for the proposal, identifying that
the space would be difficult to make successful.
Page 4
Commissioner Proper stated that he understands the difficulty in renting the space for
commercial due to the resulting design, but he added that almost all commercial spaces have
some challenge which can be compensated for by charging an appropriate rent for the space.
Commissioner Viele stated that the building is approved and under construction, and the Town
should do everything they can to make sure the project does not go upside-down.
Commissioner Kjesbo stated his support of the proposal and his agreement with Commissioner
Viele.
Commissioner Pierce stated that he did not believe that an empty condo adds to the character of
the neighborhood and therefore is in opposition to the proposai.
30 minutes
3. A request for a work session to discuss the establishment of a new special development district,
pursuant to Article 12-9A, Special Development (SDD) District, Vail Town Code, located at 303
Gore Creek Drive, Units 7 through14 (Vail Rowhouses)/Lots 7 through 13, Block 5, Vail Village
Filing 1, and setting forth details in regard thereto. (PEC080074)
Applicant: Christopher Galvin, represented by K.H. Webb Architects
Planner: Bill Gibson
ACTION: Tabled to March 23, 2009
MOTION: Kjesbo SECOND: Viele VOTE:6-0-0
Warren Campbell made a presentation per the staff memorandum.
Dominic Mauriello, representing the applicant, gave a power point presentation providing the
history of the development on the site and the proposal.
Commissioner Kurz asked if the owners have owners committed to making improvements to
their units and would they reconstruct all at one time?
Dominic Mauriello stated that all the owners are committed to reconstructing their homes,
however he did not see they performing construction all at the same time. He suggested that
two units may reconstruct at the same time.
Commissioner Kjesbo asked what the heights of the already reconstructed units were currently
and pointed out the decrease to the side setback on Unit 13.
Dominic Mauriello stated that they were approximately 42 feet so the proposal was not for a
significant increase in height.
Commissioner Tjossem inquired as to the impacts of applying an SDD to only Units 7-13 and not
all the units.
Dominic Mauriello reviewed the history of the development and that they were platted differently
from each other. Units 1-7 were condominiums and 7-13 were townhomes.
Connie Knight, property owner in the adjacent property to the east, asked if this SDD would
app►y to other townhome properties, why an SDD was needed, and what would keep
neighboring properties from applying for an SDD as they have similar situations? She added her
concern over the proposed 10 foot setback on the east, is not a good idea adjacent to the public
park.
Page 5
Warren Campbell stated that the proposed SDD would only apply to these 7 lots, that an SDD
was only one method to address the desire to not have to request multiple variances each time
someone wished to redevelopment (new zone district, rezoning to an existing district, amend
existing district, or do nothing), and neighboring properties would have the same opportunity to
request an SDD to aid in their redevelopment.
Commissioner Pierce inquired as to the existing GRFA on the sites and how it compared to what
was being proposed.
Allison Kent, representing the applicant, provided the GRFA of each structure existing currently
which in many case exceeded the allowable GRFA for the property.
Warren Campbell pointed out that those properties exceeding the allowable GRFA have likely
utilized there 250 additions.
Connie Knight asked for clarification on the proposed setbacks and noted her concern that the
public benefit being proposed was not sufficient.
Gwen Scapello, resident, pointed out that the SDD process is the most onerous and expensive
process. She stated that it appears that the Town has forced the property owners into a tough
position. Perhaps the Town should look into a zoning district change that would be appropriate
for the townhomes, instead of creating an SDD.
Dominic Mauriello stated that we the SDD process is not significantly different form amending or
creating a zone district.
Kyle Webb, architect, on behalf of applicant. Stated that the existing units are 2-3 bedroom with
partial basements. Everyone in the neighborhood is unique, therefore blanket zoning wouldn't
work. He commented that if the development rights are increased, the development will need to
contribute to employee housing per the regulations.
Connie Knight pointed out the proposed large increase to GRFA on each lot.
Warren Campbell explained that the proposed GRFA is not the only parameter, and that
setbacks, site coverage and height also regulate development. He added, that he suspected
that the proposed GRFA maximums would not be obtainable when the other parameters were
taken into account.
Commissioner Kjesbo also explained that the Design Review Board would also need to approve
any redevelopment.
Connie Knight asked if what was being proposed could be accomplished through the creation of
a new zone district for all the townhome type projects?
Warren Campbell explained that yes a new zone district could be established for properties like
the Vail Rowhouse, Vail Trails East and West, and Texas Townhomes; however, each project is
different, which makes it difficult to chose a blanket district, and the result would likely be that
each property would still have to request a variance as they would not be able to comply
completely with the new zoning districts requirements.
Commissioner Pierce asked for clarity on the public benefit of heated paver installation that
would need to be heated by the Town and would create a heated street portion between two
unheated portions. He would like to see more improvements made in public parks or streets.
Page 6
Commissioner Proper asked if the proposal was to heat from the bridge adjacent to Gorsuch to
Staub Park?
Dominic Mauriello stated that no they were proposing to install paver and heat melt tubing along
the Frontage of the Vail Rowhouse property.
Warren Campbell stated that staff would have additional conversations with Public Works and
the applicant to flush out the specifics of the proposed street pavers and tubing.
Commissioner Pierce suggested that the sidewalk be heated instead or that improvements be
made to the adjacent park.
Commissioner Proper asked if the public benefit mitigates the increased development potential?
He asked staff to provide more direction at the future hearing. He believes the setback and
height is substantial.
Commissioner Kjesbo stated that the idea is to make the review process moire predictable by
avoiding variances. The property is unique and the SDD is the right way to go.
Commissioner Viele thinks the proposal includes a substantial windfall of increased development
potential. Maybe the intended result is to ease the review process, but the result will be an over-
developed property. He felt the proposed deviations, including GRFA and decreased setback on
Lot 13 are significant and need to have a significant public benefit to off-set those increases.
5 minutes
4. 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
