It is the Potato Patch HOA intention to use the space as a Park and Picnic Area and maintain the space as a recreational amenity. They will reseed the area upon removal of the courts.
Thank you.
Also, please find attached application form signed for removal of tennis courts.

Mark and Chris,
Please email me a copy of the HOA written approval for the design review application to remove tennis courts at Vail Potato Patch Club.
As you are aware, the existing tennis courts are outdoor recreational amenities that may have been considered a credit toward the Town of Vail’s Recreational Amenities Tax. Section
2-5-4, Tax Credit, Vail Town Code, identifies those recreational amenities eligible as a credit toward the tax as follows:
“B. Types Of Construction Designated: Types of outdoor or indoor recreational amenities which shall be considered for tax credit are as follows:
1. Tennis court, paddle tennis court.
2. Golf course, pitch and putt course, driving range, putting green.
3. Football field, baseball field, soccer field.
4. Basketball court, volleyball court, handball court.
5. Ice skating rink, ice hockey rink.
6. Swimming pool.
7. Bicycle trail, pedestrian trail.
8. Park, picnic area, playground.
9. Amphitheater, theater, museum.
10. Any other type determined by the Town Manager, acting with reasonable discretion, to be appropriate and beneficial for the Town, its residents, and visitors.”
To maintain the existing credits from the Recreational Amenities Tax, please clarify how the tennis court sites will be utilized as a qualified recreational amenities, as defined above,
after removal of the existing courts.
Sincerely,
Bill
